157: Chapter 157 The Prestige of the Divine Dawn Saint
Seeing that his elder brother's granddaughter liked the Sacred Fire Mystic Pill very much, Elder Long smiled and stroked his beard, then carefully sized up Ye Xuan, finding that this young man was indeed quite handsome.
"True Disciple Ye has a great eye. In this old man's view, you and the Murong girl are a perfect match. If you could become dao companions, it would be a match made in heaven."
A sigh of admiration escaped Elder Long's lips, but he suddenly remembered something. "Right, although we haven't met in nearly a thousand years, Big Brother Murong seemed to vaguely mention that his granddaughter had a fiancé, one who seemed to have the surname Leng?"
"And True Disciple Ye, you have the surname Ye. Hmm? Could it be that True Disciple Ye's real surname is actually Leng?"
Elder Long watched Ye Xuan and Murong Liyue standing together, feeling they were truly a perfect match, and for a moment, he was confused.
"Elder Long, are you talking about that guy with the surname Leng? His name is Leng Qianming, and I have a small grudge with him."
Seeing Elder Long looking puzzled, Ye Xuan calmly explained.
"So that's how it is. Hahaha, this old man is truly getting senile. Rest assured, I will definitely not go spreading this around; I will keep it a secret."
Suddenly, Elder Long felt there must be some hidden story here. A glimmer of gossip flashed in his old eyes, and he patted his chest to give his word.
"Grandpa Long, it's not what you think. This big bad guy is not my dao companion at all."
Murong Liyue's face flushed with shame; if there were a crack in the ground here, she would definitely dive right into it.
"Smack—"
"How is it not related? You are my little maid now!" Ye Xuan placed his hand behind Murong Liyue again and gave her shapely buttocks another hard smack.
"Ah, you!"
"A... little maid? Young people these days really know how to play." Elder Long muttered to himself several times, but was immediately shocked again.
Huh? To be able to make the little princess of the Murong Family willing to be a maid, how powerful must his background be?
"Mm, old gentleman, it is just as you think." Ye Xuan felt it wasn't enough and gave Elder Long a look that all men would understand.
"You, you, you! You hateful Pretty Boy, explain quickly! There is nothing between us..." Murong Liyue was so anxious she stomped her feet on the spot, her face flushed red as she looked from time to time at Ye Xuan, then at Elder Long.
Yet, to Elder Long, this scene looked incredibly familiar, just like a young girl in love acting coquettishly toward the man she liked.
"Murong girl, don't be shy. Isn't it just eloping with the one you love? What's the big deal?"
Elder Long said with a chuckle, but there was a hint of nostalgia and regret in his old eyes: "If this old man had possessed your courage back then, why would I have ended up in this state?"
Ye Xuan and Murong Liyue were a man and a woman; the man was incomparably handsome, and the woman was stunningly beautiful. In a moment of distraction, Elder Long seemed to see his former lover, Xue'er.
"It seems Elder Long is also a devoted person." Ye Xuan looked at the sentimental expression on Elder Long's face and couldn't help but say.
"Love is worth fighting for. Little Ye, Murong girl, do you need this old man to plead with Big Brother Murong? He might still give this old man some face, and perhaps he can let you be together openly."
Perhaps because of his past experiences, Elder Long said kindly to Ye Xuan and Murong Liyue.
Who knew that the more he said this, the more eager Murong Liyue was to explain, almost dancing with anxiety: "Ah, Grandpa Long, please don't talk nonsense. I don't want to be with this big pervert at all! These past few days that I've been with him, my buttocks have been beaten swollen by him every single night."
"What are you thinking? This old gentleman really has quite an imagination, though it does indeed look a bit like what we are experiencing right now." Ye Xuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Alright, Elder Long, I will treat Murong Liyue well in the future, so rest assured." In front of Elder Long, Ye Xuan patted Murong Liyue's little head again, looking just like a pair of tsundere young dao companions.
"Since that's the case, this old man won't interfere in you young people's business. I have also been somewhat moved. By the way, I have a strange scripture here. Looking at the introduction, it seems to be a dual cultivation scripture from the Upper Realm."
"As for this old man, I am at a great age, and this thing is useless to me. Since this is the first time meeting True Disciple Ye, I will give this to you. Perhaps you will be able to use it in the future."
A piece of ancient parchment appeared in Elder Long's hand, and he handed it to Ye Xuan.
"Hmm? These characters are quite interesting." Ye Xuan flipped it open slightly, looked at it, and then put it back into his spirit ring.
"Ah? Grandpa Long, how could you give such naughty things to this big pervert?"
Even if Murong Liyue were foolish, she could still tell that this scripture was definitely not proper.
"You, you will know just how precious the thing Grandpa Long gave you is in the future." Elder Long smiled and shook his head, not offering any further explanation.
"You hateful Pretty Boy, you big pervert, it's all your fault!"
How could Murong Liyue not understand? Elder Long had mistaken her for Ye Xuan's fiancée and dao companion. At this point, she didn't even want to explain; the more she explained, the messier it would get. She glared with her beautiful eyes, wanting to swallow Ye Xuan whole.
"I see the purple Mystic Power surrounding True Disciple Ye; it seems somewhat like the divine body recorded in the Cangqiong Holy Land, the Zixiao Divine Thunder Body. It looks like that's what it is."
At this moment, Elder Long also remembered something and asked, "I wonder which elder of the Holy Land had the honor of accepting True Disciple Ye as a disciple?"
"My master is Saint Master Shen Xi." Ye Xuan honestly said the name.
"Boom—"
Elder Long was shocked and accidentally threw the sword in his hand, which was imbued with Mystic Power, causing a nearby mountain peak to instantly shatter.
How could he not know the prestige of Saint Master Shen Xi?
In just twenty short years, her cultivation had actually reached the Saint Realm, and during those years when she rose to prominence, she had almost entirely relied on the shen xi sword in her hand to traverse the Four Great Wilderness Regions.
"Fortunately, fortunately, this old man decisively eliminated that pest." Elder Long looked at Ye Xuan with lingering fear. No wonder he had such strength, to be able to kill a veteran Heaven Profound Realm powerhouse.
The Sword Emperor Sect's hundred-thousand-year foundation had almost been destroyed at his, Elder Long's, hands. Fortunately, fortunately.
"No way, Elder Long, is my master that scary?" Ye Xuan was speechless.
Even such an old senior knows the prestige of my master, Saint Master Shen Xi?
"Saint Master Shen Xi once contended against two Supreme-level existences in Leizhou. How could this old man not be afraid?" Elder Long was quite open-minded and said to Ye Xuan with a smile.
That Great War in Leizhou was something that even he, while in the Northwest Great Territory, had sensed.
Although his cultivation had not reached the Huangxuan Realm over these years, he had not fought with anyone for nearly a thousand years, so his lifespan had not been greatly affected, and his divine sense was much stronger than that of an ordinary Huangxuan Realm expert, so he could naturally see that earth-shattering battle.
The Saint Realm is a realm that ordinary people can only look up to from afar.
Yet, Saint Master Shen Xi fought two terrifying Supremes and actually did not fall into defeat, leaving calmly.
Who in the Shenxuan Continent doesn't know of her? Who hasn't heard of her?
