Chapter 468
Gu Chen raised his hand, and invisible great power rippled in the air, like ink under a brush gradually outlining the shape of a portal.
The portal gradually emerged, and the scene inside the door frame changed from illusion to reality.
In the blink of an eye, Paimon leaned in to take a look: "I can feel the wind blowing from over there, it's so cold!"
"The whole area of Jueyun Karst is at a high altitude, and the environment has become very good because of the steep terrain and the residence of the immortals. We should be able to encounter wild Qingxin on this trip." Ganyu covered her face with her hands, looking expectant.
"Let's go."
Gu Chen took the lead and stepped into the portal first.
Paimon followed and floated over.
Looking around, after discovering that she was on a high slope among the mountains, Paimon said in surprise: "Does this count as crossing a thousand miles in one step?"
"It counts." Gu Chen nodded.
"Having such an ability is really convenient for traveling."
Paimon sighed while looking at the surrounding scenery, then said: "That place looks a bit familiar... Oh oh! Mount Aocang!"
"Let's go, let's go knock on Cloud Retainer's door!" Sister Guizhong was eager to try.
Gu Chen and his party all walked over, and the portal disappeared.
Following Sister Guizhong, they arrived at Mount Aocang.
Ganyu looked helplessly at Sister Guizhong running to the entrance of the cave dwelling.
Then.
Bang bang bang!
Slender hands hammered on the seal, emitting golden ripples.
Sister Guizhong shouted: "Cloud Retainer! Are you home!"
Before long, a bird head popped out, and clear disgust could be seen in its eyes: "What?"
"True Monarch, we came here to play." Ganyu explained.
Cloud Retainer looked at Ganyu, then looked at Sister Guizhong with disgust, and finally looked at Gu Chen, smiling: "Oh my, after many days, you've come to visit this immortal?"
Gu Chen paused upon hearing this, then said: "Ah yes, that's exactly it!"
Paimon looked at Gu Chen with her hands behind her back. If she didn't know that this was a picnic, she would have really believed it.
Paimon, who was complaining in her heart, noticed Gu Chen winking at her.
Paimon suddenly realized, turned to look at Cloud Retainer, and said: "True Monarch, it's almost noon, look?"
Cloud Retainer was startled, then said: "You guys aren't here to mooch a meal, are you?"
"Yup." Paimon nodded.
Cloud Retainer choked. She thought she would explain, but she just nodded and admitted it?!
Cloud Retainer said very simply: "This immortal doesn't know how to cook!"
"We know you don't, we do!" Paimon giggled.
Cloud Retainer felt that this group of people seemed to be prepared, very strange, and tried to say: "Then you guys arrange it?"
"Just waiting for those words!"
Gu Chen nodded immediately.
There is a lotus pond in front of Cloud Retainer's cave dwelling, and there is a place in the pond with stone tables and stone stools.
This place is spacious, and Gu Chen immediately contacted people to buy a lot of things and ingredients.
After putting everything out, Cloud Retainer said: "Sure enough, you came prepared. You guys came here to have a barbecue?"
"That's what we thought, and thinking that you, True Monarch, were lonely in the mountains, we came to see you." Paimon said.
"Did you forget I have a disciple?" Cloud Retainer rolled her eyes.
"Where is she?" Paimon looked around and didn't find her.
Cloud Retainer said: "Shenhe went to Lishui's place to learn things two days ago."
"Sure enough, a loner." Paimon sighed.
"What kind of talk is that!"
Cloud Retainer didn't like hearing that, grumbling: "Mount Hulao isn't far!"
"Call her over to liven things up." Sister Guizhong said.
Cloud Retainer thought for a moment and said: "That works too."
Before long, Shenhe returned, and Mountain Shaper and Moon Carver also came.
"Sect Leader."
The two True Monarchs greeted Gu Chen as soon as they arrived.
"I heard that the Tai Xuan Sect at Qingyun Peak was handed over to you by Zhongli to manage. Thank you for your hard work." Gu Chen nodded.
"Not hard at all. The many immortal arts are eye-opening, and we don't want to leave." Moon Carver laughed.
Mountain Shaper agreed deeply: "The more we see, the more we know our own insignificance and shallowness. The harvest is too great."
"Forget it, it's fine if you guys are thick-skinned enough to mooch a meal, but you're still sighing here." Cloud Retainer said indignantly.
"What do you mean mooch a meal? Didn't we bring some wild Qingxin?" Moon Carver said righteously.
Mountain Shaper nodded: "Exactly, I also caught a lot of fish in Huaguang Forest."
"Just in time, come and help!" Sister Guizhong greeted.
Watching them process the ingredients, Shenhe was a bit dazed.
Seeing this, Gu Chen said: "True Monarch, Shenhe doesn't eat Qingxin while following you, does she?"
As soon as this was said, Mountain Shaper immediately said: "I said at the time, Shenhe is a human, how can she follow her and eat Qingxin for a living? This is too bland!"
"Ganyu is one thing, she has the bloodline of a beast of good omen. This child Shenhe is really suffering." Moon Carver sighed.
Mountain Shaper said: "If you ask me, it's Cloud Retainer's fault for not knowing how to cook."
"Extremely." Moon Carver nodded.
"No one will think you don't have mouths if you don't talk." Cloud Retainer snorted coldly.
"Thank you for your hard work all these years. Try the beef skewers." Gu Chen handed the freshly grilled beef skewers to Shenhe.
Shenhe took them: "Thank you."
Her tone had no fluctuations, just like herself, a bit cold.
If you say that college students' eyes have clear stupidity, then Shenhe's gaze has clearly visible lack of emotion.
If you had to describe it, she's probably like a blank sheet of paper without much ink left on it.
"I want some too, I want some too!" Paimon smelled the fragrance and suddenly felt hungry.
"Try grilling it yourself."
Gu Chen sat down again.
The three immortals also transformed into human forms and joined in.
Ganyu has the bloodline of a beast of good omen and doesn't eat meat, so she grilled some vegetables, but they didn't have so many scruples.
