Chapter 51: Do you really not cherish any of our old feelings at all?

~8 min read 1,513 words

With Hua Bairui leading the way, the two arrived at Baihua Hall on Yuhua Peak without any obstruction along the way.

Baihua Hall is different from Hehuan Hall.

It is built into the mountainside, surrounded by flowers, trees, and vines, and there is a large Flower Field in front of the hall.

There are all kinds of flowers, in every color imaginable.

There are also quite a few disciples patrolling here.

However, upon seeing Hua Bairui, they all bowed and offered greetings, calling out, "Senior Sister Hua."

"It seems your status in the Baihua Sect is quite high."

Jiang Xun smiled upon seeing this.

"After all, I am the Sect Master's Personal Disciple..."

Hua Bairui said, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"You are the eldest disciple, right? The two from Xuwang Mountain before..."

"They are both my junior sisters, and also disciples of the Sect Master."

Hua Bairui nodded, a flash of sadness passing through her eyes.

However, having cultivated for many years, she was accustomed to life and death, so she did not remain immersed in this sadness for long.

"We are here."

Hua Bairui stood before the main gate and stopped: "Master said to let you go in alone. I will wait for you here. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

"Alright." Jiang Xun nodded: "Many thanks to Fairy Bairui for leading the way."

"Not at all... It is I who should thank you, Senior."

Hua Bairui said, looking somewhat shy.

The surrounding disciples were shocked to see Hua Bairui actually showing such a shy expression, and they couldn't help but whisper to each other.

"Heavens, Senior Sister Hua never smiles!"

"She's actually showing an expression like that today?"

"Who is that old man? Could he be Senior Sister Hua's..."

"Pah, pah, pah, don't talk nonsense. How could Senior Sister Hua fancy an old man?"

"Exactly, that must be a guest of the Sect Master. His status must be very noble, which is why Senior Sister Hua is fawning over him."

"Then how noble must his status be... Actually, I always thought Senior Sister Hua was expressionless..."

"Go in, go in, Senior Sister Hua is coming over, stop talking!"

As Jiang Xun walked into the hall, Hua Bairui also let out a sigh of relief, feeling a bit shy about her expression just now, but when she turned back and saw the disciples whispering, she suddenly felt that something was very wrong!

She hurriedly regained her composure, put on a cold face again, and waited for Jiang Xun at the door.

Walking into Baihua Hall, there were flower statues on both sides of the hall, and further ahead, four stone chairs were placed on each side.

At the very front center, a woman in a pink and white dress was sitting on a jade chair.

The pink dress reached her ankles, her beautiful legs were crossed, revealing a small portion of her fair, tender lower legs, and she was wearing short pink shoes.

Her chest was surging like waves, comparable to Tu Qing's.

Her long hair was draped down, styled with hairpins and dangling hairpins.

Her beautiful eyes blinked, and her pale pink cherry lips parted slightly: "It really is you."

She looked at Jiang Xun, her eyes complex and somewhat incredulous.

She never expected that the dashing young master who once held a folding fan, wore white robes, and revealed arrogance between his brows,

would now become a hunched old man wearing black robes, devoid of any presence, and even leaning on a cane.

【Ding, S-rank Daughter of Luck detected: Yin Ningyu!】

【Favorability: 80!】

【Return Multiplier: 800!】

"Long time no see, Fairy Yin."

Jiang Xun looked at Yin Ningyu's favorability and gave a bitter smile.

He didn't expect that she would still have 80 favorability toward him.

Yin Ningyu, Jiang Xun, and Tu Qing were all from the same era; back then, they were all Personal Disciples of their Sect Masters and had some friendship with each other.

Of course, it was a friendship forged through fighting.

Back then, Jiang Xun was deeply in love with Yin Ningyu, and Yin Ningyu naturally had some admiration for that dashing young master with the Natural Charm Bone.

It was just that due to their two sects, the two gradually drifted apart, and in the blink of an eye, five hundred years had passed.

"Sit."

After a long while, Yin Ningyu sighed and pointed to the stone chair beside her.

Jiang Xun did not stand on ceremony and sat on the stone chair closest to Yin Ningyu.

Yin Ningyu waved her hand, and a pot of tea and a teacup appeared on the wide armrest of the stone chair.

Jiang Xun poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip: "It's sweet. The tea of the Baihua Sect is indeed quite good."

"I originally thought you would become the Sect Master of the Lingerie-Sect, and at that time, there might have been a possibility for us to join forces and develop both sects together, but I didn't expect you to fail your Tribulation Transcendence. You... why were you in such a rush?"

Yin Ningyu's eyes were full of regret.

"Jiang Xun!!! You damn bastard, you tricked me again!"

Listening to the two's conversation, how could Jun Tianling not realize that they had a history!

With this appearance of being so intimate, how could Yin Ningyu possibly make a move against Jiang Xun!

She had been deceived by him again this time!

Jiang Xun ignored her.

Although the two of them had some friendship, five hundred years had passed, and people change; who knew if Yin Ningyu had changed or not.

"You have heard something about my Tribulation Transcendence?"

Jiang Xun looked at Yin Ningyu and smiled.

"... Who doesn't have a few spies?" Yin Ningyu's expression was slightly proud.

She then looked at Jiang Xun: "You clearly weren't prepared, you didn't use a Spirit Transformation Pill, and your internal energy wasn't at its peak; why did you insist on forcibly triggering that Heavenly Tribulation?"

Hearing Yin Ningyu say, "Who doesn't have a few spies."

Jiang Xun secretly thought it was bad.

It seemed the spy who sent the letter to Tu Qing had already been rooted out by Yin Ningyu, and she must already know that the Lingerie-Sect was about to make a move against the Baihua Sect.

It was even uncertain whether the intelligence was true or false.

Moreover, with Yin Ningyu revealing this to Jiang Xun, she might truly be prepared to not let Jiang Xun leave.

"Isn't this the same as what Fairy Yin is thinking? If I become Sect Master, our two sects... might even be able to forge a marriage alliance."

Jiang Xun smiled calmly and composedly.

Yin Ningyu did not take the bait and continued: "Well, this is great; that junior sister of yours was already unhappy with the two of us, and upon taking over as Sect Master, the first thing she wants to do is attack my Baihua Sect."

"Uh." Jiang Xun was momentarily speechless, not expecting her to just say it out loud like that.

"Must it really come to a fight to the death? And she sent you to scout the situation; could it be she thinks I would soften my heart and actually tell you something?"

As Yin Ningyu spoke, the aura of the Late Transformation Spirit Peak Stage suddenly erupted from her body, even faintly feeling as if it were about to break through to the Void Refinement Realm.

The intelligence was indeed fake!

Jiang Xun felt a bit panicked inside, but on the surface, he calmly took a sip of tea.

He already had a guess in his heart as to who the spy in the Baihua Sect was.

"Fairy Yin truly has extraordinary strength; I don't know when your cultivation surpassed mine, and you are even far ahead."

Jiang Xun looked at Yin Ningyu and smiled.

Yin Ningyu withdrew her aura; that was just to give Jiang Xun a show of force.

To let Jiang Xun know that the current Baihua Sect was not something the Lingerie-Sect could touch.

Even with Tu Qing and Yu Yan, two at the Spirit Transformation Stage, they could do nothing to her, a Late Transformation Spirit Peak Stage cultivator.

"It seems you haven't slacked off in your cultivation all these years; seeing your achievements today, I am also happy for you."

"Ning Yu..."

As soon as these three words left Jiang Xun's mouth, the teacup in his hand shattered with a bang, and the teapot shattered as well.

The tea flowed all over the floor along the armrest of the stone chair.

"Jiang Xun, are you still worthy of calling me Ning Yu now?"

Yin Ningyu looked at Jiang Xun, her eyes filled with anger.

She had originally thought that Jiang Xun would remember their old friendship and dissuade Tu Qing, but she never expected that he would take the initiative to come to the Baihua Sect to scout for information!

Jiang Xun.

Do you truly not cherish any of our old friendship at all?
