50: Master Yun Mengli, the Luck Rent Collection System!

The Listening Heart Pavilion atop Dream Bamboo Peak sounds quite elegant, but in reality, it was the primary place where Revered Master Yun Mengli went to sleep... or rather, to contemplate the Great Dao.

When Lu Yu led Lin Wanqiu to that simple, almost lazy-looking wooden pavilion surrounded by emerald bamboo and spiritual vines, he found the door ajar as expected, with everything quiet inside.

"Revered Master, your Disciple Lu Yu and his apprentice Lin Wanqiu request an audience."

Lu Yu stood outside and raised his voice to call out.

There was no movement inside.

Lu Yu waited a moment and called out again, but there was still no response.

He sighed and whispered to the nervous Lin Wanqiu.

"It seems Revered Master is still sleeping. Let's head straight in, but keep your voice down."

Lin Wanqiu nodded blankly and followed Lu Yu as he cautiously pushed the door open.

The light inside the pavilion was soft, and thick animal-skin rugs covered the floor. Several low tables were scattered with Jade Slips, storybooks, and half-eaten spiritual fruits.

A warm fragrance mixed with the scent of Soul-Calming Flowers drifted through the air.

The person they were looking for, Grand Elder Yun Mengli of the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Sect, was currently lying on her side on a soft couch by the window, fast asleep.

She had an exquisite face and ink-black hair. Her moon-white gown with cloud patterns was loose, and the corners of her mouth were slightly curled as if she were dreaming of something pleasant.

Lu Yu was long accustomed to this.

He motioned for Lin Wanqiu to stay put, walked to the side of the couch, and cleared his throat.

"Revered Master, your Disciple has returned."

"Mmm..."

Yun Mengli waved her hand unconsciously, rolled over, and mumbled indistinctly.

"...Don't be noisy, Revered Master... wants to sleep a bit longer..."

Lu Yu sighed and forced himself to look away, avoiding Yun Mengli's enchanting and alluring figure. Before her Disciples, Yun Mengli never maintained any masterly dignity; she was always very casual, even in her attire.

Often on Dream Bamboo Peak, she would only wear a simple piece of cloth that barely covered the essential parts of her body.

She claimed it was for the sake of staying cool.

It was one thing when there were only his six Senior Sisters, as they were all female. But even after he joined twenty years ago as a male, his Revered Master remained the same, seemingly always treating him like a little kid and never considering him a hot-blooded young man.

But the problem was, he was all grown up now!

At this moment, Yun Mengli was wearing a very simple, plain-colored gown—not even a formal one. It was extremely loose, sleeveless, and the front was disheveled, failing to hide the thousands of gorgeous sights on her body.

The abyss-like cleavage was exposed before his eyes, and the few simple strips of fabric could not fully cover her long, snowy-white legs.

Lu Yu was often speechless; did his Revered Master not have an accurate perception of her own charm?

As a Grand Elder of the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Sect and a renowned top-tier Cultivator, her beauty and strength coexisted. Coupled with her lazy and carefree personality, many people adored her.

On the beautiful women ranking, she held the number one spot!

And she had occupied that top position for thousands of years!

Lu Yu sighed and covered his Revered Master with a tangled red gauze robe from the couch. As a Disciple, he couldn't afford to have any disrespectful thoughts!

Seeing that his Revered Master still hadn't woken up, he had no choice but to nudge her again.

"Revered Master, wake up, there's serious business."

This time, Yun Mengli finally opened her eyes drowzily.

They were a pair of extremely beautiful willow-leaf eyes that seemed to hold starlight, though they were currently clouded with sleepiness.

She blinked, focusing on Lu Yu's face.

"Hmm... Little Seven?"

Her voice was soft and sweet, with a nasal tone from just waking up.

"You're back..." She

slowly sat up. She didn't even bother to pull up the gown's strap that had slipped off her shoulder, and she ignored the fact that a large portion of her breasts' curves was exposed. She leaned lazily against the couch, yawned, and still smelled slightly of alcohol.

"Over in Canglan... did you have fun?"

Fun?

Lu Yu's mouth twitched. Revered Master, you call that "fun"?

"Thanks to Revered Master's great fortune, everything went smoothly."

Lu Yu reported selectively.

"I fortunately broke through to the Nascent Soul stage. Additionally, I've taken a Disciple, Lin Wanqiu, who possesses the Nirvana Phoenix Body."

As he spoke, he beckoned to Lin Wanqiu.

Lin Wanqiu hurried forward and knelt respectfully to kowtow. She was very curious about this Grandmaster, who looked so beautiful and charming and lacked the air of a powerful expert.

"Grand-Disciple Lin Wanqiu pays respects to Grandmaster!"

Yun Mengli's gaze fell upon Lin Wanqiu, and her sleepy eyes seemed to clear for a moment as starlight swirled within them.

She let out a soft "Eh?", her lips curling into a beautiful arc as she made a lifting motion with her hand.

"Rise. Nirvana Phoenix Body... not bad, not bad. She's a good seed; Little Seven has good eyes."

A series of notification tones that only Yun Mengli could hear rang in the depths of her mind.

Her face showed nothing, remaining lazy and casual, but the starlight deep in her eyes grew a bit more joyful.

Oh?

Little Seven is doing well!

Quietly achieving such brilliant results!

This return on investment is top-notch!

She wasn't just a simple Yun Mengli; her true self was a Quasi-Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Realm!

Right now, she was merely undergoing the Immortal Emperor Tribulation.

A Quasi-Immortal Emperor, even in the Immortal Realm, was a powerful figure, one of the experts at the pinnacle. Every Quasi-Immortal Emperor seeking to break through to the supreme Realm of Immortal Emperor must undergo different tribulations.

And Yun Mengli's Immortal Emperor Tribulation was related to her own Dao.

In the Immortal Realm, she cultivated the Three Thousand Great Dream Daos, one of the top Daos. Her tribulation for the Immortal Emperor stage was the Three Thousand Reincarnations Dream Tribulation.

In these three thousand Reincarnations, she sought her true self, explored fundamental knowledge, and dreamed of the Origin.

This life was just one link in her Three Thousand Reincarnations Tribulation, and it was the final, three-thousandth Reincarnation!

As soon as this Reincarnation tribulation was successfully passed, upon her return to the Immortal Realm, she would wake up and reach the Realm of the Immortal Emperor!

Over five thousand years had passed in this life. In fact, she had already found her true self and explored fundamental knowledge. If she wanted to, she could have ascended and returned to the Immortal Realm to break through to Immortal Emperor.

But she hadn't done so yet.

Because she discovered that during this Reincarnation tribulation, after she broke through to the Mahayana Stage, she had unknowingly bound a destiny collection system!
