219: Nothing?

“By the way, which period's Huang Rong are you from? Has Guo Fu appeared yet?” Chen Xuan asked.

“Hmph, that’s none of your business!” Huang Rong’s face flushed.

Although Chen Xuan knew her personality and experiences like the back of his hand, and had absolute strength to suppress her, she just didn’t want to tell him, she didn’t know why.

However, seeing her reaction, Chen Xuan already understood the general situation.

After all, the current Huang Rong was too mature, and coupled with his immediate attraction to her the moment he saw her, it already explained the problem.

The Huang Rong he had summoned was probably the mature Huang Rong from The Return of the Condor Heroes.

“Alright, let’s leave it at that for now. In the days to come, we’ll get to know each other slowly, and you’ll find that I’m not a bad person,” Chen Xuan said.

He knew that he couldn't push too hard at this moment, otherwise it would only backfire.

“This is a Cultivation Technique used by Cultivators. You can try Cultivating it first.” Chen Xuan took out the Tao Te Ching and handed it to Huang Rong.

“This is the summoning method for an Immortal Soul. You should try to summon this as well.”

Huang Rong: “…”

“Why… would you give these to me?” She took the Cultivation Technique, her expression somewhat complex.

She wasn't stupid. This Young Master Chen Xuan’s every action towards her already subtly expressed his feelings.

“Don’t worry, I’m not like you. I won’t give Cultivation Techniques to others in reverse, especially this Tao Te Ching. You’ve probably seen it too, but none of you know how to Cultivate it.”

“You…!”

The emotions that had just been brewing abruptly stopped. At this moment, she only wanted to beat Chen Xuan to death.

“This is a Vermillion Fruit. You first try the Tao Te Ching, then eat it, and see if you can officially step into Cultivation.”

“Vermillion Fruit?? This, is this the legendary Vermillion Fruit?!” Huang Rong was shocked again.

“Alright, stop making such a fuss. Hurry up, don’t waste my time!” Chen Xuan tried to pinch the beautiful woman’s cheek, but she dodged him.

“Don’t move!”

Huang Rong dropped that line and began her Cultivation.

Soon, after eating a Vermillion Fruit, her cultivation reached Qi Refining second level.

“Good. Now try the other Cultivation Technique and see what your Natal Immortal Soul is.”

Huang Rong did as she was told.

It could only be said that she was indeed a Daughter of Luck blessed by heaven and earth. The time it took her to summon her Immortal Soul was even faster than Chen Xuan’s.

“…Dog Beating Staff? My Immortal Soul is the Dog Beating Staff?!”

Looking at the Dog Beating Staff in her hand, Huang Rong was surprised and moved. She never expected to reunite with the Dog Beating Staff in such an otherworldly realm.

“Since that’s the case, then Cultivate here in peace. I will visit you regularly.” Chen Xuan finished speaking, dropped a bag of Vermillion Fruits, and disappeared from Huang Rong’s sight.

Afterward, Huang Rong stood alone on the mountaintop, looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, her heart a mix of emotions.

She had never imagined that she would have such a day, being taken away by a stranger, and forced to stay here to Cultivate.

Even though this place was truly beautiful, so beautiful that it made her forget her troubles.

She looked at the beautiful scenery before her and secretly made up her mind that she must Breakthrough as soon as possible, then find a way to locate Jing Gege and return to Xiangyang City.

By then, with their earth-shattering strength, defeating Mongolia would be a mere flick of the wrist.

Thinking of this, she took out a Jade Slip Chen Xuan had given her and began to study.

This Jade Slip recorded much information and some basic common sense about the Yao Beasts, treasures, and Spirit Medicines of the Cultivation World, including their strength, characteristics, and living habits.

For Huang Rong, all of this was very important knowledge, and she had to master it as quickly as possible to better Cultivate.

…

After bidding farewell to Huang Rong, Chen Xuan went back to check on Shen Xirou, and finding that she was still in seclusion, he did not disturb her and left the Grotto-Heaven.

“Next, I need to find the Immortal Spirit. Qingfeng Mountain, right? Then I’ll go over there and take a look.”

Subsequently, Chen Xuan bid farewell to the Zhang Family members and went to Qingfeng Mountain alone. On the way, he specifically released Lin Yutong to accompany him.

However, what he didn’t know was that behind him and Lin Yutong, a curvaceous figure was following.

“Someone just popped out? Interesting, interesting. It seems this little brother Chen Xuan has quite a few secrets…”

…

“Yutong, what is your Immortal Soul?” Chen Xuan asked curiously.

“It can’t really be said to be my Immortal Soul, it should be Water Yao’s Immortal Soul, which is water. As for my Immortal Soul, I’m really not too sure.”

“Is that so? Then what are your next plans? Are you going back to your Family?”

“Not now, I always feel that when something happened to me back then, someone was pulling strings behind the scenes. Now our strength is still shallow, and if we rashly return to the Lin Family, something might go wrong.”

“Alright, then let’s wait a bit longer.”

…

Soon, the two arrived at the so-called Qingfeng Mountain and began searching for the Green Peak Deer. However, what surprised Chen Xuan was that there was not a single person on the mountaintop or at the foot of the mountain, not even Yao Beasts!

“It’s bare up here, there’s nothing. Do you know this place, Qingfeng Mountain?” Chen Xuan asked Lin Yutong.

“This concubine has been in the Lower Realm for many years and does not know much about this Qingfeng Mountain. However, when I was in the Upper Realm, this place did not exist. It might have been renamed by someone!”

“Is that so? Alright then, I’ll keep looking.” Chen Xuan said.

For a while afterward, he and Lin Shuiyao continued to search for the Green Peak Deer on Qingfeng Mountain, but they still couldn't find it.

Even stranger, he didn’t even find a single ordinary Yao Beast!

“Isn’t there nothing here? Xiao Hongmei wouldn’t lie to me, would she?”

After searching for a day, Chen Xuan had turned the entire area upside down, but found nothing, which made him a little depressed.

“Husband, look, what is that?” Suddenly, Lin Yutong pointed towards the mountaintop and said.

Chen Xuan looked over and found that on the summit of Qingfeng Mountain, a mass of mist had appeared! Even Chen Xuan’s Divine Sense couldn't penetrate it!

“This is truly strange. There was nothing just now, and now something like this suddenly popped out!”

“Husband, you must be careful. This mist can block our Divine Sense. There might be some unknown danger inside!” Lin Yutong tightly gripped Chen Xuan’s hand.

“Yes, my dear wife’s words make sense. Your cultivation is not as high as mine yet, so it’s safer for you to return to the Grotto-Heaven first!”

With that, Chen Xuan sent Lin Yutong back into the Grotto-Heaven.

“Eh? Husband, that’s not what I meant, I was…” Lin Yutong hadn’t finished speaking when she already appeared in the Grotto-Heaven.

“Husband is really annoying! He has to bear everything himself!” Lin Yutong stomped her delicate feet, and could only helplessly return to the villa. But as she walked, she noticed something was off.

“Hmm? That area didn’t used to be like this? And how did a small bamboo hut appear? Why did Husband build a new house there?”

“Never mind, I’ll go take a look first!”
