391: Senior Sister's Sigh

Outside the gates of Tianyao City.

A beautiful Fairy in green robes flickered before Su Yun and his companion, bowing slightly as she spoke respectfully:

"Saint Su, I am a Yaochi Disciple. I am here specifically to welcome distinguished guests outside Tianyao City today."

"Saint Su, please follow me!"

"Our Jade Pool Holy Land has prepared specialized accommodations within the city for guests from various Holy Lands."

After speaking, she carefully sized up Su Yun, while simultaneously thinking of the recently very busy Saintess.

In recent months, the Jade Pool Holy Land had tasked Saintess Liu Ruoxi with leading the Yaochi Disciples to organize the Tianyao Domain Grand Competition, both as a test for her and as training for the disciples.

After organizing the preliminary rounds, the Saintess issued invitations to the younger generation of Cultivators from various Holy Lands and the major Cultivation Families of the Central Domain, inviting them to watch the final round of the competition and participate in the exploration of the Mysterious Fruit Forest afterward.

This included the Taixuan Holy Land.

However, when the Saintess learned that the Taixuan Holy Son was not on the guest list from the Taixuan Holy Land, she instantly became somewhat despondent.

Although the Saintess hid it well, many Yaochi Disciples noticed.

After all, it was far too obvious, and the news had been spread by a mysterious Senior Sister in blue, so it was definitely true.

As one of the Yaochi Disciples who admired the Saintess the most, she felt quite distressed upon hearing this.

To her surprise, while patrolling the city gates today, she actually encountered the Taixuan Holy Son.

Once she finished receiving the Taixuan Holy Son, she would tell the Saintess this good news!

"Alright, I'll trouble you then!"

Su Yun nodded slightly and spoke directly.

At this moment, he was still a bit dazed.

Wait, what?

How did he become so famous now?

He was recognized just as he arrived outside Tianyao City!

Earlier, he and Leng Xirou had teleported nearby. Seeing so many Cultivators queuing to enter the city, they emerged from the Void Realm, planning to enter slowly since they weren't in a hurry.

But as soon as they appeared, they were spotted by the Yaochi Disciples on the city walls.

Had he known, he wouldn't have removed his disguise after arriving in the Central Domain.

Now, he would likely be recognized wherever he went.

Just then, Leng Xirou's beautiful eyes flickered. Holding Su Yun's arm, she said with a beaming smile:

"Su Yun~"

"You're so popular!"

"Even a random Fairy from the Jade Pool Holy Land knows you!"

After speaking, she glanced at the Fairy in green before her, then looked around at the other Fairies nearby, whose gazes were burning with intensity.

From the moment she and Su Yun arrived at the city gate, those Fairies had been staring at him.

Then, someone seemed to mention Su Yun's identity. Upon hearing it, the Fairies stared at him with even more fervent eyes.

If she hadn't been by Su Yun's side, those Fairies would likely have come up to strike up a conversation.

It seemed her decision to stick with Su Yun was correct after all.

With so many Human Race Fairies eyeing Su Yun, she definitely had to be on guard; she couldn't afford to lose to them.

At this thought, Leng Xirou tightened her grip on Su Yun's arm, her deep, snowy-white cleavage pressing firmly against him.

"It's alright, just a coincidence."

Su Yun said somewhat helplessly.

He only felt his arm sinking into a wave of warmth and softness, making it hard to pull away.

Besides, what Leng Xirou said sounded a bit off.

Could she be jealous?

It would be better to change the subject quickly:

"Xi Rou, let's hurry and enter the city!"

"Haven't you never been to the Central Domain before?"

"It's the perfect chance to take a look around Tianyao City first."

"Mhm, alright!"

"Then let's go and wander around Tianyao City!"

Leng Xirou's eyes lit up as she nodded.

Tianyao City seemed to be the largest city under the jurisdiction of the Jade Pool Holy Land; it wouldn't hurt to explore it.

She wondered how it differed from the great cities of the Myriad Demon Domain.

She was quite curious.

"Saint Su and this Fairy, please follow me!"

The Fairy in green finally found an opportunity to speak and said directly.

After speaking, she glanced at Leng Xirou.

She couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

It seemed the Saintess had met her match.

The Fairy accompanying the Taixuan Holy Son was a formidable rival!

She was not inferior to the Saintess at all, and she even carried a hint of natural charm; she was truly terrifying!

Later, besides telling the Saintess that the Taixuan Holy Son had arrived, she should also inform her about this Fairy!

So the Saintess could be prepared.

As one of the Yaochi Disciples who admired the Saintess most, she was truly worried sick for her!

At this thought, the Fairy in green couldn't help but sigh softly.

"Fairy, what's wrong?"

Su Yun looked at this Yaochi Disciple with some confusion.

She just said she'd lead him and Leng Xirou into the city, so why was she dazing and sighing there?

"My apologies, Saint Su. I... I will lead the way now."

The Fairy in green suddenly snapped out of it and then transformed into a streak of light, flying toward Tianyao City.

Su Yun and Leng Xirou immediately turned into two streaks of light and followed.

Soon, they arrived outside the largest pavilion in Tianyao City.

The Fairy in green introduced directly:

"Saint Su, this is the pavilion for hosting Cultivators from the various Holy Lands. Please follow me."

"No need, knowing the location is enough. We plan to walk around the city first."

"By the way, when does the final round of the Tianyao Domain Grand Competition begin?"

Su Yun waved his hand and then asked directly.

"It starts in one hour. At that time, a teleportation array will be set up in the center of Tianyao City. Guests can use the teleportation array to go to the Tianyao Tower outside the Mysterious Fruit Forest, where the final round of the competition will be held!"

"After the competition ends, our Holy Land will open the entrance to the Mysterious Fruit Forest, allowing the Cultivators who have obtained exploration slots to enter and explore."

The Fairy in green answered quickly.

"I understand. Thank you for leading the way. You can go about your business now!"

"Alright, then I won't disturb you two further!"

Then, the Fairy in green bowed slightly and turned to leave.

Once the Fairy in green was far away, Leng Xirou excitedly pulled Su Yun to wander around various parts of the city... Some time later.

Inside the pavilion.

A charming young girl wearing a pink and white ruqun with flower ornaments in her hair sat on a chair, staring blankly out the window.

She was Xie Yulan, who had arrived in Tianyao City with other Taixuan Disciples shortly after ending her seclusion at home.

She had been very troubled these past few months.

This was because a group of Cultivators from the Hidden Sect, Yimu Valley, had come to the Xie Family a few months ago.

They had come with the Young Valley Master of Yimu Valley to request a marriage alliance.

The chosen partner for the marriage was her, the Eldest Young Miss of the Xie Family.

Originally, her Old Ancestor didn't quite agree, but after speaking with several Cultivators from Yimu Valley...

...the Old Ancestor relented.

He let those people come to seek her consent.

If she agreed, the marriage alliance would be finalized.

Thus, the Young Valley Master of Yimu Valley settled in at the Xie Family and frequently came to invite her out.

She kept refusing and expressing her disagreement with the marriage alliance, but the Young Valley Master refused to give up. In her helplessness, she had no choice but to enter seclusion for several months to avoid him, thinking he would give up and leave by the time she came out.

To her surprise, the Young Valley Master was still at the Xie Family.

Unable to bear it any longer, she returned to the Holy Land and followed their group to the Tianyao Region.

Thinking back on her experiences during this time, Xie Yulan couldn't help but sigh deeply and murmur.

"Sigh, I hope that Young Valley Master doesn't follow me here too!"

At this moment, she couldn't help but think of Su Yun. Her irritability vanished instantly, replaced by a faint sense of longing.

"Counting the time, it's been several months since I last saw Junior Brother Yun!"

"I suddenly miss him a little!"
