482: Fairy Jinglan, the two of them are moved

“Is this Sister-in-law?” Chen Xuan couldn’t help but exclaim.

“Yes, this is your Sister-in-law, Immortal Qinglan,” Old Ancestor Qing Shan said with a proud smile in his voice.

“Immortal Qinglan?!” Chen Xuan’s eyes grew even stranger.

Is this old fellow having a problem with Qinglan?

“Uh, actually, she Ascended with me, but everyone calls her Fairy, so I just call her that too,” Old Ancestor Qing Shan explained.

“Qing Shan, why did you suddenly come over?” the woman asked coquettishly, her voice as clear and melodious as an oriole’s song.

“Haha, can’t I come to visit you even if there’s nothing wrong? Come, come, look, this is the virtuous brother I’ve just befriended—Chen Xuan!”

“Immortal Qinglan Fai… ah no, Sister-in-law, hello, I am Chen Xuan!”

Immortal Qinglan looked at Chen Xuan upon hearing this.

The moment their gazes met, it was as if an electric current passed between their hearts.

“Thump!” A soft sound came first from Immortal Qinglan’s chest; she felt as if her heart was about to leap out of her throat.

At the same time, Chen Xuan also heard the violent pounding of his own heart, “Thump, thump, thump!” The rapid heartbeat was like a war drum, making him dizzy.

For a moment, the surrounding air seemed to grow hot, causing both of them to involuntarily quicken their breathing.

This sudden, strong sensation caught the always dignified and serene Immortal Qinglan off guard; a blush quickly crept up her fair earlobes, like a ripe, luscious apple.

Fortunately, Immortal Qinglan was no ordinary person; she had achieved Immortal Ascension through her extraordinary strength.

Therefore, although a hint of a romantic thought arose deep within her, she was able to quickly suppress it and restore her calm, placid state of mind.

At this moment, Immortal Qinglan was the first to speak: “You know me?” Her beautiful eyes moved, gazing at Chen Xuan before her, a charming smile gracing her lips.

Chen Xuan was captivated by her gaze, momentarily at a loss for words. After a long while, he stammered in response:

“Uh, no… I don’t know…” After saying this, he couldn’t help but feel a wave of embarrassment, his cheeks flushed, his hands and feet unsure where to go.

His accelerated heartbeat also made him flustered, but fortunately, his acting was fine, and he happened to have his back to Old Ancestor Qing Shan.

Meanwhile, Old Ancestor Qing Shan, seeing this, laughed heartily:

“Haha, it’s fine, we’re all family now, don’t be so reserved.” As he spoke, he reached out from behind and gently patted Chen Xuan’s shoulder in comfort.

“Indeed, Sister-in-law is so naturally beautiful and captivating, of course, I, your younger brother, will show her as much respect as you do, older brother.”

Immortal Qinglan, hearing this, smiled even more radiantly, like a flower, and said coquettishly:

“Hmm, Husband, your little brother certainly has a sweet tongue!” The atmosphere between the three instantly became relaxed and pleasant, with laughter echoing in this tranquil world.

“Alright, now that I’ve met Sister-in-law, I won’t disturb you two. I’ll go supervise the others,” Chen Xuan said.

“Good, you go get busy,” Old Ancestor Qing Shan said.

Chen Xuan nodded, then turned and left.

“Qing Shan, your little brother seems to be quite extraordinary!” Immortal Qinglan parted her cherry lips slightly, her beautiful eyes gazing at Chen Xuan in the distance, speaking thoughtfully.

Old Ancestor Qing Shan paused slightly upon hearing this, then asked with interest, “Oh? What does my wife mean? Please enlighten your husband.”

Immortal Qinglan furrowed her delicate brows, pondered for a moment, then slowly began:

“The Qi emanating from him… I always vaguely sense an indescribable uniqueness, as if he is different from everyone else in this world, which truly makes him feel quite mysterious and unusual.”

This was Chen Xuan, whom she had observed closely after her heart rate accelerated.

Old Ancestor Qing Shan fell into contemplation after hearing this. After a short while, he looked up and replied:

“Never mind, never mind. No matter how special he is, since he has willingly acknowledged me as his elder brother, then we naturally ought to take good care of him and by no means let him suffer any grievances here.”

As he spoke these words, Old Ancestor Qing Shan had a righteous, stern expression, but upon closer inspection, one would notice a subtle, almost imperceptible hint of hypocrisy flashing in the depths of his eyes.

Immortal Qinglan lightly nodded her head, showing her agreement:

“Hmm, Husband, what you said is absolutely right. When work is over, why not invite him to our home for a little visit? It would be good for us to get to know each other better and become closer. After all, there is still… in the house.” At this point, she suddenly stopped speaking, as if she had more to say but held back.

Old Ancestor Qing Shan slapped his forehead as if suddenly enlightened: “Oh dear, look at my memory! My wife’s mention just now reminded me that there’s still someone at home! No, I must go and inform him immediately!”

With that, his figure flickered, transforming into a streak of light and darting into the distance.

Watching Old Ancestor Qing Shan depart, a blush once again flashed across Immortal Qinglan’s face.

“My heart and mind have always been on cultivation and my husband, so why am I like this… Could this be what they call love at first sight?”

...

A day passed in the blink of an eye.

Chen Xuan did not approach Zheng Yaqin on the first day. After all, it was the first day, and she was still a human… She would definitely be very cautious in this regard, and he was not clear about her specific strength, so he decided to wear her down for a while first.

“Little brother, let’s go. Come to my house tonight as a guest. Your Sister-in-law went back early to prepare food for you!”

“Are there edibles in this mine?”

“Of course! No matter what, this is a place where immortal crystals are produced, and our wages are all immortal crystals. How could no one come to do business? Don’t worry, the place we live is not much different from a city!”

Saying that, Old Ancestor Qing Shan pulled Chen Xuan to where they lived.

“This… this is…” Chen Xuan felt a moment of trance as he arrived at the city Old Ancestor Qing Shan mentioned.

Because the city here was completely different from what he imagined. The most incongruous thing was that before his eyes were buildings of towers. (Like those twenty or thirty-story buildings in a residential area)

“How is it, little brother? Was the first sight… no, you should have seen it yesterday. It’s my bad memory, hahaha!”

Chen Xuan didn’t listen to what Old Ancestor Qing Shan was saying, and he kept complaining in his heart:

“Good for you, fellow countryman, you’re not even acting anymore, are you? Don’t let me catch you, otherwise… see how I properly deal with you!”

Thinking this, he and Old Ancestor Qing Shan walked into the building together.
