Chapter 381

Having not received the patriarch's transmission, Zhang Xingyu was very disappointed.

Outside White Jade Pool, the star fans who had waited for a day were still waiting bitterly.

Although ten days had already passed, the enthusiasm of the star fans had not diminished in the slightest.

At nine in the morning, Zhang Xingyu, with a dejected face, had just appeared outside White Jade Pool when he was completely "surrounded" by a group of female star fans.

If it were in the past, the surrounded Zhang Xingyu would definitely have waved his hands at them excitedly: "Greetings, junior brothers and sisters. Every time I see you, it's like seeing my own kin. If the temperature here is twenty degrees, then your enthusiasm is one hundred and twenty degrees. My passion has already been ignited by you. Junior brothers and sisters, I love you all!"

But today, Zhang Xingyu hung his head, as if he hadn't heard the cheers of the star fans at all.

The surrounding air seemed as if it had been frozen stiff.

A female star fan discovered that Zhang Xingyu's expression was a bit off, so she asked weakly: "Brother Xingyu, what is wrong with you? If you have any unhappy matters, tell me. I will definitely do my utmost to help you resolve them."

Zhang Xingyu did not answer.

Seeing his dull appearance, the female star fan's heart felt a sharp pain, and she couldn't help but sob softly.

It didn't matter that she cried; all the female star fans surrounding them began to cry, "Woo woo woo woo."

In an instant, the sound of crying outside White Jade Pool shook the heavens.

The male star fans who had come to visit Zhang Xingyu did not understand why, so they had no choice but to accompany them in crying softly with teary eyes.

Zhang Xingyu came back to his senses from the sound of crying.

What the hell?

He tugged on the sleeve of the female star fan in front of him: "This junior sister, what happened?"

The female star fan flicked her sleeve: "Don't mind me, I'm sad. Woo woo woo woo."

A moment later, the female star fan seemed to realize something.

"Brother Xingyu, are you alright now?" the female star fan asked weakly.

"What matter? I'm fine!" Zhang Xingyu was completely confused.

"Yay! Brother Xingyu is fine, Brother Xingyu is fine!" The female star fan jumped up in excitement.

A woman's face is like the weather in June; it clears up as soon as it says it will.

In an instant, the overcast White Jade Pool became sunny and bright.

The female star fans wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes while surrounding Zhang Xingyu and asking him all sorts of questions.

The clever ones had already started taking out bronze mirrors to touch up their makeup, and some of the bolder ones had started clamoring to have children for Zhang Xingyu.

Zhang Xingyu used all his might but still couldn't squeeze his way out of the female star fans' encirclement.

Just then, a cold snort came from outside the crowd.

In an instant, the star fans surrounding Zhang Xingyu fell to the ground one after another.

Hali rushed into the crowd, grabbed Zhang Xingyu, and walked out.

With Hali clearing the way in front, Zhang Xingyu rushed out of the crowd, flew into his cave dwelling, closed the door, and only then sat on the ground, panting heavily.

"Too terrifying, it is truly too terrifying!"

Zhang Xingyu exclaimed loudly while panting.

"Yo-ho. Junior Brother Zhang, you've only been a celebrity for a few days, and you've already had such an epiphany!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xingyu was startled in his heart.

"Th-that, Senior Sister Linglong, why have you come again?"

In the center of the cave dwelling.

Yue Linglong was half-sitting on a stone stool, her pair of soul-stirring beautiful eyes staring tightly at Zhang Xingyu.

Zhang Xingyu's heart skipped a beat. The way Yue Linglong looked at him was as if a hungry lion were staring at a plump, delicious sheep.

Yue Linglong stared at Zhang Xingyu for a while, her eyes suddenly becoming incomparably gentle, and her face brimming with a moving smile.

"Junior Brother Zhang. I came here to chat with Sister Hali, Junior Sister Ling'er, and Little Sister Yingxue. What, are you not welcoming?"

"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare. If Senior Sister Linglong is willing to come, I, your junior brother, naturally couldn't ask for more. It's just that this cave dwelling of mine was just tidied up, and the things inside are relatively simple; there is no spiritual tea, spiritual fruit, or spirit liquor, so I fear I might be neglecting you, Senior Sister," Zhang Xingyu explained.

"Mm. What you say is very true, Junior Brother. This time I came over, I brought some Thousand-Layer Fruit produced outside my cave dwelling for you and the sisters to taste. As for the spiritual tea and spirit liquor, it was indeed my lack of consideration, Senior Sister. When I come tomorrow, I will bring some more. Last month, Master obtained some top-grade spiritual tea and rewarded me with a jar. According to Master, these spiritual teas are produced by the spiritual tea trees on Cloud Mist Mountain; one tree only produces one tael, and the taste is truly quite good. Tomorrow, I will bring some for you, Junior Brother."

"This, that..." At this moment, the usually eloquent Zhang Xingyu could no longer find any excuses.

He truly could not understand why this number one beauty of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Gate was also running to his cave dwelling every day like those star fans.

Was she not afraid of people gossiping? Did she not know that public opinion is a fearful thing?

And that Extinction Master, True Monarch Qingyu, you also don't manage your disciple well. Are you not afraid of ruining her reputation and affecting her finding a husband and getting married in the future?

Just as Zhang Xingyu was secretly slandering her, Fairy Linglong stood up from the stool, her lotus steps swaying, and slowly walked toward him.

"You, what are you doing? You, don't come over." Seeing this, Zhang Xingyu hurriedly retreated a few steps.

"Giggle giggle giggle!"

Seeing this, Yue Linglong supported her pretty face with her hand and let out a crisp laugh.

"Junior Brother Zhang, what are you doing? I'm not going to eat you."

"Giggle giggle giggle!"

Behind her, the demoness Hali, Little Martial Uncle Ling'er, and that little girl Liu Yingxue all laughed heartlessly.

Zhang Xingyu's old face flushed red.

He glared fiercely at Hali. This silly woman who turns her back on her own, do you not know what it means to invite a wolf into the house?

Zhang Xingyu steadied his mind and tried hard to organize his words in his brain.

"Senior Sister Linglong. You and I are mere acquaintances, and we haven't had any interaction before. I don't know why Senior Sister Linglong would condescend to come here? And come every day?" Zhang Xingyu asked weakly.

"Giggle. Of course I came to chat with the sisters. My place is too cold and quiet; all day long, besides cultivation, it's still cultivation, and there isn't even anyone to talk to about intimate matters. I think your place is quite good; the environment is beautiful, and there are sisters to chat with together, so I came over to sit for a while," Yue Linglong laughed.

Scattering peppercorns on a mass grave—numbing the ghosts!

Zhang Xingyu slandered in his heart. Slandering was one thing, but for this number one beauty of the sect, he really didn't dare to offend her. In the entire Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Gate, the disciple who would dare to offend her probably hasn't been born yet.

Think of Extinction Master True Monarch Qingyu, think of that line of words under Jade Balance Peak; who would still have the guts?

However, without figuring out Yue Linglong's intentions, Zhang Xingyu felt as if he had thorns in his back, and he couldn't even speak or sleep in peace.

"That, that Senior Sister Linglong. What exactly do you want your junior brother to do, just tell me the truth," Zhang Xingyu's voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzzing.

Seeing his appearance, Fairy Linglong couldn't help but have a strange feeling in her heart.

Others who saw her, Yue Linglong, were all in a lecherous state. Only this Zhang Xingyu was actually still thinking about driving her away.

Before she could speak, Ling'er, who was standing behind her, spoke up: "Alright, Senior Sister Linglong, stop teasing him. If you tease him any more, I'm afraid the little martial nephew will become suspicious."

Zhang Xingyu cried out in his heart, I am already suspicious, alright!

Just then, Fairy Linglong put away her smile. She solemnly bowed to Zhang Xingyu, then parted her red lips and said: "Junior Brother Zhang, I want to dual cultivate with you!"

"What?" Zhang Xingyu was dumbfounded.

Am I having auditory hallucinations? Senior Sister Linglong actually said she wanted to dual cultivate with me; the number one beauty of the sect actually said she wanted to dual cultivate with me.

Zhang Xingyu pinched his thigh hard.

A sharp pain came. This meant he wasn't dreaming, nor was he having auditory hallucinations.

Heavens! What kind of dog-shit luck did I have, that Senior Sister Linglong would actually fall for me.

Happiness came too suddenly, and Zhang Xingyu's nerves were a bit disordered.

"Senior Sister Linglong, although I also admire you very much, you are so direct that I haven't prepared myself mentally for a moment. How about we slow down our pace? We can fall in love first, then dual cultivate later; that way, for both of us..."

"Giggle giggle giggle giggle!"

Before Zhang Xingyu could finish, Hali, Ling'er, and Liu Yingxue were already laughing until they were bent over.

Yue Linglong's pretty face was even redder: "Junior Brother Zhang, the dual cultivation I mentioned is just everyone cultivating together, not the meaning you are talking about."

"Ah!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xingyu's mood instantly fell from heaven to hell.

After a long while, he steadied his mind and asked: "Senior Sister Linglong, you said you wanted to cultivate with me?"

Yue Linglong nodded: "Mm. I also ask Junior Brother Zhang to take me into that moon to cultivate again. You also know that the Dao art I cultivate is called the Linglong Illusion. The day you took me into that moon, I clearly felt that practicing inside could help me better comprehend the Linglong artistic conception. Therefore, I ask Junior Brother Zhang to help."

Zhang Xingyu nodded: "So that's how it is. Senior Sister, you should have said so earlier; you made me happy for nothing."

After complaining, Zhang Xingyu turned his head and shouted to the outside: "Master Dog, hurry up and roll in here, there's a beauty looking for you!"
