507: Who the hell can I complain to?
Dianxing Academy.
The massive Academy was situated on a mountain peak within a large city.
This mountain was very famous throughout the Northern Region, reaching ten thousand zhang high, directly into the clouds. Above the halfway point, it was perpetually covered in snow, and a cold chill enveloped the mountainside, obscuring the view of the summit.
However, every full moon, under the moonlight, golden light would always flash, and a Golden Hall would emerge within the golden light, which people called the Academy's Golden Summit!
This mountain had always been a Holy Land-like existence for Dianxing Academy. Many Cultivators who came to seek mentorship and study here also held deep reverence for this mountain, viewing it as a divine miracle.
This was extremely rare in the Northern Region, not only because this was Dianxing Academy, but also because of the Golden Summit within this mountain.
"I'm back again. I was only out for half a year this time, and I actually missed it quite a bit."
Shi Linglong stood on the flying boat, feeling quite emotional. She didn't know why, but she never used to feel this way when she returned, it was like staying in an inn.
But this time, she felt a sense of belonging.
"This shows that Junior Sister has truly grown up. Grandmaster and Master, if they heard this, would surely be very happy."
Feng Wuliang said with a chuckle, also feeling a different kind of emotion in his heart.
Although Junior Sister still retained her former willfulness and capriciousness, she was also somewhat different. And the most direct change was that she now actually knew how to consider others' feelings!
In Junior Sister's words, this was called 'Do not do unto others what you would not have them do unto you'!
Who the hell could he reason with?
So many Senior Brothers and instructors at Dianxing Academy couldn't make her understand this principle, yet after only a few months with Shen Tianxing, she actually knew such a profound truth!
The several women nearby, upon hearing this, also showed kind smiles. They had spent a long time together and already knew each other's temperaments well. Shi Linglong's personality was still quite popular.
"Senior Brother, who are you looking down on? What, was I so disliked before? Or was I hated by everyone? Is that what you think too? Senior Brother Ji? Is that what you think too?"
"No, no! That's what Senior Brother Feng said, I've always thought Junior Sister was understanding!"
Ji Tiange's strong will to survive left Feng Wuliang dumbfounded, so surprised his jaw almost dropped!
This guy... he's disloyal, pushing him out as a shield so quickly!
Alright, he should take back what he said.
Junior Sister was still Junior Sister after all; she hadn't become mature and steady, she had just learned to restrain herself!
Her style hadn't changed at all.
"We're here! Everyone follow me, I'll take you to see my grandfather first!"
Shi Linglong called out, leaping down from the flying boat first.
The only one who could openly fly a flying boat directly into Dianxing Academy was Shi Linglong, this little devil.
The Senior Brothers and instructors in the Academy saw her figure from afar, and then they all disappeared.
Everyone who saw her shook their heads, "Out of sight, out of mind; out of sight, out of mind!"
"You all go ahead, I have some matters to attend to. I'll find you later."
At this moment, as she looked at the familiar scenes before her, Shen Tianxing's words echoed in Liu Xianyun's mind once more.
Now, she was not much weaker than her older sister, it was time to meet her!
"Ah? Fairy Liu, aren't you coming in with us?"
Shi Linglong was startled and quickly ran back. She thought Liu Xianyun had a cold personality and didn't like to socialize. She seemed to have become quiet and reserved along the way, only drinking wine.
Although their usual interactions and time together didn't seem to have changed much, it was indeed somewhat different from before, especially after Shen Tianxing left.
Xing Yao, however, pulled Shi Linglong's hand and said, "Fairy Liu will come. We just need to wait for her at the Academy."
Xing Yao and Liu Xianyun used to enjoy competing with each other; one liked to drink wine, the other liked to drink tea, and they would always try to outdo each other in front of Shen Tianxing.
However, this time, Xing Yao's initiative to help her out was quite unexpected for Liu Xianyun.
Liu Xianyun didn't explain much, patted Shi Linglong's head, turned, and transformed into a streak of light, disappearing into the distance.
No one else knew what she was going to do, only the already departed Shen Tianxing knew.
The women didn't think much of it either. Liu Xianyun had always been quite independent in front of them, and she taught them everything she knew, speaking her mind directly. If she didn't want to say something, it was useless for anyone to ask.
However, the bond between the few of them was undeniable; they truly were like sisters now.
"Linglong, quickly take us to see it! I've long heard of Dianxing Academy's great name, but I've never had the chance to witness this Holy Land of Cultivation that countless Cultivators yearn for!"
Su Mingyue held Shi Linglong's hand and said with a smile.
She also didn't leave with Shen Tianxing. In Shen Tianxing's words, Su Mingyue had her own path to follow and didn't need to go on adventures with him; she only needed to Cultivate step by step.
Su Mingyue, of course, wouldn't object. Moreover, she hadn't been in contact with the outside world for a long time, and coming to Dianxing Academy with Shi Linglong this time was to broaden her horizons.
"Mm, let's go!"
The group followed Su Mingyue into Dianxing Academy.
Meanwhile, Liu Xianyun, who had already left, soared like a streak of light directly towards the sacred Golden Summit within Dianxing Academy!
"Hmm?"
Shi Sanyuan was playing chess with Gao Xingwu, the dean of the Martial Cultivation Institute, when he suddenly felt a streak of light flash across the dome and couldn't help but look up.
Gao Xingwu said with interest, "Ten years. The girl has finally returned. She must have suffered quite a bit out there all these years."
Gao Xingwu recognized the owner of the streak of light at a glance and didn't try to stop her. After all, Liu Xianyun was one of the few people who could ascend to the Academy's Golden Summit.
Shi Sanyuan nodded, sighing, "We all know the Palace Master's intentions. Xianyun's talent is rare in the world; she was merely a bit strict."
"However, the Old Palace Master entrusted this heavy responsibility to their sisters. Sometimes, I, this old man, wonder if it's too cruel. General, you lose!"
As he spoke, Gao Xingwu looked at the chessboard before him and almost laughed in anger.
"Old fox, you're still so shameless!"
Gao Xingwu smiled, picked up the chess pieces, and rearranged them, saying, "So many years have passed, I hope Xianyun can let go."
"Her talent has already begun to show: Golden Body Realm second stage, twenty-eight years old, tsk tsk!"
"When she returns this time, there might be a good show to watch!"
Shi Sanyuan chuckled, not saying anything more. Some topics didn't need too many words.
They also didn't intend to interfere; such matters were best left for the sisters to handle themselves.
On the majestic mountain peak, white snow covered the entire summit!
Golden light flickered within the mountain, and an Immortal Palace floated amidst the sea of clouds.
That was a suspended mountain, bearing an Immortal Palace on its top, precisely the legendary Golden Summit Immortal Palace!
