407: Add buff to yourself
“Alright, I will have the Enforcement Hall investigate this matter. To dare to make trouble in my Feixian Sect, I think he must be tired of living! You go recuperate first!” Dong Li’s voice came.
With such a major incident happening in the Sect, she, as the Sect Master, could not possibly not step forward.
“Yes, thank you, Sect Master!” After Ye Xingchen bowed, he returned to Qingfeng Mountain.
“Oh, Xingchen, from now on, the contribution points of our Qingfeng Mountain will be uniformly allocated by me. Hand over that contribution point token to me,” Hua Mengjie suddenly said.
Ye Xingchen was slightly stunned when he heard this. He clearly had not expected that his Revered Master, who usually never bothered with worldly affairs, would have such an arrangement.
However, after a brief thought, he reached into his embrace, fumbled for a moment, and then pulled out a token engraved with a Qingfeng pattern, handing it to Hua Mengjie.
At this moment, everyone nearby watched this scene quietly.
Dong Li, standing not far away, parted her red lips slightly and pointed at Chen Xuan in the crowd, saying, “Alright, there’s nothing else, you all can disperse for now. Chen Xuan, you stay.”
Earlier, she had rushed towards the Joyous Union Sect because she had received relevant intelligence provided by Hua Mengjie, and she was originally coming for Chen Xuan.
However, unexpectedly, not only did she encounter Chen Xuan by chance halfway, but she also unluckily ran into her old rival, Yu Gang. As a result, Chen Xuan, whom she had been longing to find, could naturally only be temporarily put aside.
The next moment, many Disciples left one after another. Although they really wanted to know why the Sect Master was looking for Elder Chen Xuan, they dared not disobey the Sect Master’s command.
“Sect Master Dong Li, long time no see!” Chen Xuan greeted the person in front of him with a smile and great enthusiasm.
Dong Li, on the other hand, had a cold expression, her eyes revealing traces of vigilance, and she spoke coldly, “What exactly are you doing here? You wouldn’t be trying to save your unlucky Revered Master, would you?”
He was Yu Gang’s Disciple. She didn't want to make a move, otherwise, she would have long since slapped to death such a person who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and came to save someone.
Chen Xuan was slightly startled, then scratched his head awkwardly and replied, “Uh… well, if you say so, yes; but if you say no, it seems to be correct too.”
Dong Li: “???”
“Cough cough, since parting with Revered Master last time, many unexpected things have happened one after another during this period. And it was by a stroke of Opportunity that I stumbled upon your Feixian Sect.”
However, before he could finish speaking, Sect Master Dong Li already seemed extremely impatient, waving her hand forcefully to interrupt him, “Alright, alright, stop with all that nonsense, get to the point!”
“Hmm… Actually, the situation is like this: even though I was forcibly taken away by Tang Haotian back then, my life afterwards was still very difficult, drifting from place to place every day without a fixed abode. After much deliberation, I realized that only by staying within your Feixian Sect can I ensure my own safety.”
“Then what about saving your Revered Master…?”
“Uh, actually, it doesn’t really count as saving him. In fact, it’s already been 4 months since I came to this Feixian Sect, but I have never actively sought him out. Because in my opinion, only by being within your Feixian Sect can Revered Master, that old man, receive the greatest degree of safety assurance.”
Hearing these words, Dong Li, who had originally maintained a stern face, gradually softened her expression. She nodded slightly, expressing approval: “Hmm, not bad. Yu Gang has taken many Disciples, but Disciples who are truly as sensible and understanding as you are as rare as Phoenix feathers and Qilin horns. You are indeed teachable.”
“Thank you, Mistress for your praise…” However, before Chen Xuan finished speaking, he suddenly realized he seemed to have said something wrong, and he couldn’t help but look up awkwardly, meeting Dong Li’s gaze.
“You…”
At this moment, Dong Li’s face instantly turned crimson, as delicate and luscious as a ripe apple. She widened her eyes and questioned coquettishly, “You… what did you just call me?!”
Her words contained both shyness and a hint of annoyance, along with ninety-something percent surprise.
“Uh, I’m sorry, Sect Master, I said the wrong thing, I’ll slap myself!” Chen Xuan quickly apologized.
“Hmph, you dared to call me Mistress, you’re quite bold!” Dong Li said coldly, but her heart was already blooming with joy.
She wasn't angry that Chen Xuan misunderstood her relationship with Yu Gang; instead, she felt that Chen Xuan was such a pure-hearted child.
“I… I just said it casually, please don’t take it seriously,” Chen Xuan quickly explained.
Dong Li gave Chen Xuan a sidelong glance, an eye full of charm.
“Alright, stop explaining. Besides seeking refuge, do you have anything else to do here?”
“No, actually, I mainly came here to seek shelter and inquire about my Revered Master. I believe, with your gentle personality, Mistress, my Revered Master will be fine.”
Dong Li’s face turned red again. She now understood why Chen Xuan’s other “Mistress” favored Chen Xuan so much; with such a sweet talker, who wouldn’t like him?
“Alright, regarding your Revered Master, you needn’t inquire further. You go rest first, and if you need anything, just ask,” Dong Li waved her hand at Chen Xuan.
“Yes, Sect Master.” Chen Xuan nodded, then left the main hall.
“Stop, what did you just call me?”
“Yes, Mistress!”
“Mmm, truly teachable~”
Dong Li smiled contentedly upon hearing the address “Mistress” again.
Of course, Chen Xuan also smiled. Who wouldn't want an extra buff on this woman? Anyway, he had plenty of strength to use on her to his heart's content, and he was no longer the young man who couldn't defeat Qinglan Jade back then!
Speaking of Qinglan Jade, he really missed her a bit. After dealing with things here, he should go see her.
As he thought, Chen Xuan departed.
Dong Li stood in place, watching Chen Xuan’s receding figure, the corners of her mouth curling up involuntarily. This Chen Xuan, as expected, was teachable and did not disappoint her. Once in the Black Prison, she must speak well of him in front of Yu Gang!
...
Meanwhile, on the other side, when Chen Xuan returned to his Immortal Cave, he found that someone was already waiting for him.
It was Hua Mengjie.
“Oh? So it’s Mengjie. May I ask why you sought me out this time?”
Hua Mengjie took out the token in her hand and smiled proudly: “What else could I be looking for you for? Of course, I’m here to exchange for Peach Blossoms. Our Qingfeng Mountain is very rich!”
“Oh, so that’s it.” Chen Xuan also smiled.
“Since you’ve come all this way, why not come in and sit for a bit? My home hasn’t had anyone for a month, it’s a bit messy.”
“Messy?”
Upon hearing this, Hua Mengjie felt even more proud.
“Hmph, truly a man who can’t take care of himself. Without me, you really can’t get through a day! As for going to your Immortal Cave, I think there’s no need!”
“Is that so? Then what if I offer an extra Peach Blossom?”
“Don’t you dare humiliate me with that!”
“Now, this young… your grandma has plenty of self-respect! I will never again be your beast of burden!” Hua Mengjie’s tone was extremely firm.
“That’s a pity,” Chen Xuan sighed. He had originally wanted to invite her for a cola, but since she was unwilling, there was nothing he could do. Later, he would give her a big one with cola, and she would behave.
“Tell me, how many Peach Blossoms do you want?”
“Eight, I’ll take them all!” Hua Mengjie seemed extremely generous.
