602: Having a baby means you don't need your older brother.
"Aunt Mo!"
Li Linger was startled, realizing a Senior was present, and quickly lifted her head from Yao Delong's embrace.
Her pretty face was as red as a ripe apple, and she stamped her foot in embarrassment, complaining softly toward the direction Mo Qingxian had disappeared.
That shy, timid, yet blissfully happy look made Yao Delong's heart melt.
Mo Qingxian's departure took away the invisible pressure belonging to a top-tier expert.
Only the reunited engaged couple remained on the square, along with the Moyang Sect Core Disciples behind them,
who wore various expressions—envy, jealousy, or complexity.
Li Linger held Yao Delong's hand tightly, as if afraid he would vanish again.
She raised her pretty face, which was tear-stained but smiling beautifully, and her voice carried a hint of coquetry and pride:
"Brother Yao, look! Linger also Broke through to the Nascent Soul! Isn't that amazing?"
She tilted her little head slightly, like a small peacock waiting for praise.
"Amazing! My Linger is the most amazing!" Yao Delong laughed, dotingly scratching her upturned little nose.
The joy and warmth of their long-awaited reunion flowed atop Green Wood Peak.
However, a flicker of sharp, hard-to-detect brilliance flashed deep within Yao Delong's eyes.
Li Linger was overjoyed by Yao Delong's words, "My Linger is the most amazing," and her previous shyness was instantly replaced by overwhelming happiness.
Just as she wanted to stick close to Yao Delong and recount the pain of separation, she heard Yao Delong propose:
"Linger," Yao Delong's voice carried a hint of expectant laughter,
"This is my first time visiting your Moyang Sect's Blessed Land. As the host,
aren't you going to take your Brother Yao for a good tour and show him the local customs?"
These words were exactly what Li Linger wanted!
"Of course! That's wonderful!"
Li Linger immediately jumped up with joy, her large eyes sparkling. Although her tear stains hadn't dried,
she was now beaming with a brilliant smile, as if endless vitality had been injected into her instantly.
"Brother Yao, leave it to me! I'll show you the prosperity and Aura of our Moyang Sect!" She waved her small hand, full of confidence.
She lightly tapped her storage ring with her jade finger. A flash of light later, a small Flying Boat, smooth and warm like jade and emitting a faint blue glow, appeared before them.
The boat's lines were elegant. Although it wasn't as stunning as Mo Qingxian's Seven-Colored Glazed Boat, it was imbued with spiritual light.
The bow was carved with exquisite Fire Phoenix patterns, marking it as a fine specimen among top-grade earth artifacts!
"Let's go, Brother Yao!" Li Linger pulled Yao Delong's hand and lightly jumped onto the Flying Boat.
The surrounding Disciples, witnessing this situation,
showed expressions of "Just as expected" and "We shouldn't stand in the way," and with complicated feelings,
wisely transformed into streaks of Escape Light and dispersed. How could they, mere mortals, closely watch a celestial couple?
At this moment, You Yuan's figure gracefully floated out from the Jade Pendant, maintaining her lazy and enchanting posture.
She stretched, revealing her graceful curves, and her eyes playfully swept over the figure still standing there,
Little Black, who looked simple and honest but was actually trying hard to minimize his presence,
and Qiong Shuang next to him, who was puffing out her cheeks, looking like she wanted to join the fun.
"Hey, Silly Loach!" You Yuan rudely motioned toward Qiong Shuang, "And that black charcoal head next to you!"
She glanced at Old Black Mu. "Can't you show a bit of sense? Can't you see the young couple wants some alone time?
Why are you standing here being a third wheel? You're an eyesore!" Her voice held a hint of reprimand and teasing.
"Who are you calling a Silly Loach! You are! Your whole family are loaches!"
Qiong Shuang instantly bristled, her Silver Hair nearly standing on end, and she pointed at You Yuan angrily,
"I am a magnificent Sky Flood Dragon! A noble Dragon descendant!"
She angrily waved her small fists, and the Aura of a Ninth Stage Yao Beast couldn't help but fluctuate slightly.
Little Black, however, was exceptionally "sensible." Hearing this, he immediately responded in a muffled voice:
"Yes! Senior You Yuan is right! Little Black will go find a place to rest his feet immediately and definitely won't disturb Master and Mistress!"
Having said that, he quickly scampered away, moving even faster than when he fought.
"Hmph! Good that you're sensible!"
You Yuan snorted proudly, then looked at Qiong Shuang, who was still pouting.
"Silly Loach, come on, big sister will take you to check out the Moyang Sect's Market. I heard they have lots of good food, oh?" She threw out her ultimate move.
Qiong Shuang's deep blue eyes immediately lit up, and she almost started drooling, but then she remembered being left behind.
Her little face fell, and she looked pitifully at Yao Delong: "Big Brother..."
Yao Delong looked at his little treasure, feeling both exasperated and amused.
With a thought, he casually pulled an item from his storage ring and tossed it over.
"Catch!"
Qiong Shuang subconsciously caught it and looked down, her eyes instantly widening!
It was a magnificent Feather Fan, shimmering with colorful light, like a peacock spreading its tail!
The fan frame was made of unknown silver Spirit Wood, and the fan surface was woven from the plumes of nine different types of rare birds.
It glittered with seven-colored radiance, emitting powerful spatial fluctuations and defensive Aura!
A low-grade heavenly artifact! And the kind that was extremely gorgeous and attention-grabbing!
Although it was nothing to Yao Delong, it was definitely a treasure that ordinary Soul Transformation Stage Cultivators would fight tooth and nail for!
"Wow—! So beautiful!"
All of Qiong Shuang's grievances instantly vanished, and her small face blossomed like a flower.
Hugging the Feather Fan tightly, she genuinely started drooling. "Thank you, Big Brother! Big Brother is the best!"
She was so happy she spun around on the spot. Where was the "grudge of abandonment" now?
She looked like a useless child who "has a treasure and forgets her Big Brother."
Her rapid change of expression made Li Linger on the Flying Boat giggle, shaking with laughter:
"Brother Yao, your Spirit Beast partner... is truly too amusing!"
Yao Delong shook his head helplessly and smiled at Senior You Yuan: "Senior You Yuan, I'll trouble you to watch over her."
"Don't worry, she won't get lost." You Yuan replied lazily, waving at Qiong Shuang,
"Let's go, Silly Loach. Stop drooling. I'll take you out for delicious food and drinks!"
Watching Qiong Shuang happily fly away with You Yuan, Yao Delong finally withdrew his gaze.
He pondered inwardly: "Linger just Broke through to the Nascent Soul. Since this is my first formal visit, what kind of Welcome Gift should I give her?
Among the congratulatory gifts received during the last True Heir Ceremony, there seem to be a few good ones..."
At this moment, Li Linger was piloting the azure Flying Boat, slowly traversing the magnificent mountains and rivers of the Moyang Sect.
Clouds and mist flowed beneath their feet, strange peaks and unique sights swept past, and Immortal Birds and Spirit Beasts roamed freely.
"Brother Yao, look," Li Linger nestled close to Yao Delong, pointing excitedly,
"Our Moyang Sect is different from your Yin Yang Sect! The Yin Yang Sect has twelve Main Peaks, each leading the way, but we only have three Main Peaks here!"
She pointed toward the three immense peaks—towering into the clouds, majestic in Aura, and respectively shrouded in azure, crimson, and white radiance:
"Those are Green Wood Peak, Blazing Sun Peak, and Geng Metal Peak! They are the most important Core areas of the Sect!
The Elder Hall Masters Cultivate upon them, and some Sect Forbidden Grounds, Secret Realm entrances, the Main Mission Hall, and the Heavy Treasure Pavilion are also within the Main Peak region."
