81: Chapter 81 The Great Emperor's Dojo

Being stared at by those eyes, Lin Bei felt an urge to turn around and run.

"Wait, no! She's the one who owes me ten thousand fangyuan. Why should I be the one running?"

"Besides, Chen Ping and Li Qingfeng are right here with me. It's not like she can eat me, right?"

"Right! No need to be afraid!"

Just as Lin Bei finished pumping himself up, Shangguan Yue walked over gracefully.

As she approached, the surrounding Chaos mist gradually dissipated, revealing a flawless, pure, and beautiful face.

Her attire always seemed so simple: a loose green Daoist robe tied at the waist with a matching green belt, outlining a waist so slender it could be held in one hand.

Only Lin Bei knew exactly how much 'substance' was hidden beneath that loose robe.

And only he knew just how open-minded this woman, who looked like she didn't belong to the mortal world, could be...

"You... Look!" someone among the group of people nearby stuttered while pointing at Shangguan Yue.

"What's there to look at? Haven't you ever seen a beautiful woman?"

"No, look closely at who she is!"

The crowd shifted their collective gaze.

"She... Is she Shangguan Yue?"

"Yes! That's right! It's Fairy Yue of the Tianji Sect!"

"Wang Teng has been looking for her frantically lately. I didn't expect her to show up here..."

"What is she trying to do?"

...

Chen Ping and Li Qingfeng were also dazed as they watched Shangguan Yue walk right up to Lin Bei.

Next, the two almost doubted their own ears.

"My man, why are you hiding from me?"

Shangguan Yue didn't care at all about the many people present. She looked at Lin Bei and spoke with eyes full of affection.

Thud! Thud! Thud...

A large group of people nearby collapsed in shock!

"What... what did Fairy Yue just say?"

"Don't ask me! Something just went wrong with my ears..."

"How is this possible... Fairy Yue used to completely ignore Wang Teng..."

"If Wang Teng hears this news, oh my god!"

...

*Gulp...* Lin Bei swallowed hard. He hadn't expected Shangguan Yue to be so blunt.

At the same time, he couldn't understand it. Aside from being handsome, wealthy, humorous, and exceptionally powerful, he didn't have any other merits. Why was this woman so obsessed with him?

He really wanted to ask her what she liked about him so he could change it!

Moreover, he clearly wasn't in his Lin Dade appearance right now, yet he was still recognized at a glance.

Finally, why was she here? Was it just a coincidence? But looking at her, she didn't seem surprised at all.

Lin Bei glanced at Chen Ping and Li Qingfeng. Both their gazes were saying the same thing: 'As expected of you!'

"Cough..." He gave a light cough to hide his embarrassment.

"Fairy Yue must be joking. Why are you here?" Under these circumstances, it seemed impossible to ask her for an IOU.

A strange light flashed in Shangguan Yue's eyes. "As expected of my man, Yue'er's Heavenly Secret Technique has no effect on you at all!"

"In the end, I calculated that the little princess of the Luo family would appear here, so Yue'er came here to try and wait..."

"Huh?" Lin Bei was stunned. Luo Qingcheng wasn't by his side at all right now.

"A blind cat stumbling upon a dead rat? What kind of crappy Heavenly Secret Technique is that?!" he complained inwardly.

"Uh... Haha, that really is fate! Fairy Yue, I really misunderstood you last time. It turns out you aren't some enchantress from the He 歡 Sect. As a Fairy of the Daoist sects, I believe you should mind your words and deeds..."

Seeing Shangguan Yue almost leaning her entire body against him, Lin Bei had no choice but to speak up and remind her.

"Mhm... My man speaks so well!" Shangguan Yue nodded and leaned even closer to Lin Bei.

"Dammit!" Lin Bei was almost in tears. How did he meet such an abnormal woman!

"Um... Fairy Yue, isn't that form of address a bit too... much?" Every time she said "my man," his hair stood on end.

"Mhm... Then what does my man want me to call you?" Shangguan Yue acted like a submissive young lady from a humble family, obedient to Lin Bei's every word.

"Just call me Lin..." Lin Bei hesitated here. He had enough aliases. "Just call me Brother Lin!"

Li Qingfeng and Chen Ping's bodies shook, revealing expressions of admiration as if looking at a role model of their generation.

A group of young Cultivators nearby were also about to cry.

"Waaaah... Did you see that? Fairy Yue is throwing herself at him!"

"I saw it! And that guy looks like he's not even that willing!"

"Damn it! He's definitely faking it. He must be feeling great inside!"

...

The various gazes of envy, jealousy, and hatred also made Lin Bei notice this group of people, as well as the sky-piercing mountain peak further away.

Since coming to the Desolate Ancient Continent, Lin Bei had never seen such a tall mountain.

He forcibly pried open Shangguan Yue's arms, pulling his own arm out from a sensation of softness.

"Fairy Yue, where is this? Why are so many Cultivators gathered here?"

If he didn't change the subject, he was afraid Shangguan Yue would throw her whole body onto him.

Shangguan Yue smiled brightly. "Brother Lin, they are all here to try their luck. That mountain peak is called Shudao Mountain. It was once the Dao field of a Great Emperor!"

"A Great Emperor's Dao field?" Lin Bei was immediately interested. Even Chen Ping and Li Qingfeng shamelessly leaned in to listen.

"I wonder which Great Emperor's Dao field it was?"

"It was a very long time ago, a Great Emperor from nearly a hundred thousand years ago!" Shangguan Yue explained. "Ancient texts don't mention his specific name, only referring to him respectfully as 'Emperor He'!"

"Heavenly Emperor?" Lin Bei was shaken. That was a title only the cream of the crop among Great Emperors could bear.

Just as the Evil Emperor of the Shi family was also called the Evil Heavenly Emperor by many.

Then, his eyes suddenly lit up. "Is this Shudao Mountain very dangerous?"

"The road to Shu is difficult, harder than climbing to the blue heavens!" Shangguan Yue sighed softly. "Naturally, it is extremely dangerous!"

"Once, many people would tremble just hearing the three words 'Shudao Mountain'!"

"In fact, Shudao Mountain existed before Emperor He appeared. At that time, it was one of the famous forbidden lands of the Desolate Ancient Continent!"

"Later, Emperor He conquered Shudao Mountain and developed it into his Dao field. The danger of the mountain decreased significantly, but it is still not something we can approach..."

Lin Bei's eyes grew brighter as he listened. "Then what are they waiting for out here? Is there some good fortune to be had?"

"Indeed!" A strange expression appeared on Shangguan Yue's face. "This Emperor He's wealth was among the best of all Great Emperors!"

"Rare treasures appear around Shudao Mountain from time to time. Over ten years ago, a lucky Dao Integration Late Stage Cultivator picked up a Saint Weapon here!"

"I see!" Lin Bei nodded.

A Saint Weapon was worth thousands of fangyuan stones. A common Cultivator who found one could immediately turn their life around. No wonder so many Cultivators came here to try their luck.

Shangguan Yue gave a teasing smile. "Although that Dao Integration Late Stage Cultivator was soon killed by another Dragon Transformation Cultivator, many Cultivators still feel they are the chosen ones and come here to wait for a stroke of luck!"

"Uh..." Lin Bei paused, mourning for half a second for that unlucky Dao Integration Cultivator.

Then, he cast his Empty Hand Skill!

The target was the majestic Shudao Mountain before him.

*Whoosh!*

A flash of light passed, and a Fishing Rod appeared in his hand.
