87: Miao Qingsha: Let’s do it tonight!
A Peak Nascent Soul Ice Dragon King?
This Magical Artifact is quite good!
Su Yang was very tempted.
But on the surface, he still had to be polite.
"Such a precious..."
As soon as Su Yang spoke, Head of Discipline Pavilion seemed to guess what he was going to say and interrupted, "Lingxiao Sword Ancestor, there's no need to feel that this item is precious. Compared to your kindness in recreating my daughter, this Magical Artifact is nothing. Please, Lingxiao Sword Ancestor, accept it. Otherwise, with only a few words of thanks, I, Lin, would truly be unable to rest easy."
Su Yang: ...Since Pavilion Master Lin has said so... "Alright then, since Pavilion Master Lin is sincerely giving it, I won't be polite!"
Su Yang straightforwardly accepted the dragon light mirror.
Head of Discipline Pavilion was very forthright. Seeing Su Yang accept it, he immediately happily told him how to use the dragon light mirror.
"Thank you, Pavilion Master Lin, for the treasure."
Su Yang cupped his hands in thanks.
"Oh, it's nothing, it's nothing."
"Since Lingxiao Sword Ancestor still needs to visit Sect Leader Wen, I won't force you to stay. This way, please."
Head of Discipline Pavilion personally saw Su Yang and Wen Yunyao out.
Lin Bingqing and her mother naturally accompanied them.
Before leaving, Su Yang said to Lin Bingqing, "You should stay at home with your Parents for now. I'll come find you after I'm done with my business, and then we'll go back together."
"Okay!"
Lin Bingqing thought for a moment, then whispered, "I'll wait for you."
Lin's mother inadvertently glanced at her daughter. It seemed her daughter had not only given him her body but also her heart.
"Farewell."
Su Yang cupped his hands in a bow and took Wen Yunyao to the Sect Master's residence.
Wen Yunyao, who had been quiet all morning, finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
She started complaining on the way, "I'm still the Sect Master's daughter, but they treated me like air all morning. It's too much."
Su Yang said amusedly, "I noticed you're never polite with Lin Bingqing, but you were very well-behaved at her house."
"Because... because her father is super fierce, and I'm a little scared of him."
Wen Yunyao wasn't pretentious and didn't hide it.
"There's someone you're afraid of?"
Su Yang's smile became more obvious.
Wen Yunyao immediately said, "You don't know how fierce her father is. He'll lock people up for even a small mistake. I've been locked up by him several times, and he scolds me if I talk back."
"That fierce?"
He didn't seem like it.
"Don't look at him now, he seems fine, but it's all an act. He's super scary when he gets fierce."
Wen Yunyao had a look of lingering fear just thinking about it.
Su Yang smiled and didn't comment.
"Where's your home? Lead the way."
"Oh~"
Thinking of going home, Wen Yunyao immediately became happy.
She led Su Yang and flew back to her home at the fastest speed.
"Dad, Mom, I'm home~~~"
As soon as Wen Yunyao called out, her mother, Miao Qingsha, came to greet her.
"Yun Yao, you're back."
Having not seen her daughter for a long time, Miao Qingsha missed her very much.
She pulled her daughter into her arms and looked her up and down.
This girl had become even more exquisite during this time.
After not seeing her for a while, her strength had actually improved by a large margin.
Before, she had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage - Mid Phase. How long had it been? She was already in the Middle Stage to Late Stage, subtly showing a trend of Breakthrough to the Late Stage.
Miao Qingsha subconsciously glanced at Su Yang.
His Cultivation speed was even faster; he was already at the Middle Golden Core Stage.
This Cultivation speed could only be described as terrifying.
Cultivating with him, is the Cultivation speed really that fast...? "Sect Master's wife."
Su Yang bowed to her.
"Miao Qingsha greets Lingxiao Sword Ancestor."
Miao Qingsha now also had to bow to Su Yang.
According to Su Yang's current status, position, and seniority, he was actually higher than her.
"Mom, where's Dad? Why haven't I seen him?"
"Your Dad just left the Sect this morning to go to the Five Elements Sect and discuss important matters with the other Sect Masters."
Miao Qingsha replied.
"He just left this morning? I should have come back earlier..."
Wen Yunyao mumbled, but she didn't pay too much attention.
For a girl, having her mother by her side was the happiest thing.
She pulled her mother and walked inside, "Let's go, Mom, let's not stand at the door anymore. Let's go inside."
Miao Qingsha tapped her on the head.
"You girl, you have no manners at all. Lingxiao Sword Ancestor is still here."
Wen Yunyao rubbed her head, then put her other arm around Su Yang's arm, pulling him along.
Su Yang: ???
Why am I being treated like your father!?
Miao Qingsha also felt a bit awkward and quietly withdrew her hand.
She walked ahead, leading the way.
Guest hall.
"I apologize for not welcoming Lingxiao Sword Ancestor sooner. Please forgive my oversight."
"May I ask if Lingxiao Sword Ancestor's esteemed presence is for some matter?"
Miao Qingsha led Su Yang to the main seat and sat in a lower position herself.
"Nothing major."
"I came to the Merit Pavilion to exchange some things, and Junior Sister Yun Yao happened to be returning home to visit. I took the opportunity to visit the Sect Master and his wife, but unfortunately, the Sect Master just happened to be out."
Su Yang said.
"Indeed, it's unfortunate."
"When he returns, I will inform him of Lingxiao Sword Ancestor's visit. The Sect Master will surely be very pleased to know that Lingxiao Sword Ancestor specially came to see him."
Miao Qingsha said.
With no man present, her words were all formalities.
Miao Qingsha personally brewed a pot of tea.
They drank a few cups, chatting intermittently.
When they truly couldn't find any more topics, Su Yang simply got up to take his leave. "Since the Sect Master is not here, and the Madam is well, Su Yang will go to the Merit Pavilion to attend to his business first."
"No, no."
Miao Qingsha hadn't even opened her mouth when Wen Yunyao immediately ran up and pulled Su Yang, not letting him leave. "You drank and ate at Lin Bingqing's house, so of course, you have to be entertained at my house too. Otherwise, people will think our Sect Master's family's etiquette is not as proper as the Discipline Pavilion's."
Su Yang: ...Miao Qingsha hadn't thought of any of this, but since her daughter said so, she naturally couldn't send him away like that.
So she said, "Yun Yao is right. It's rare for Lingxiao Sword Ancestor to visit. If you leave like this, it will be said that we were not hospitable. Please stay for dinner before you leave."
Wen Yunyao immediately added, "That's right, that's right. You can only leave after dinner. Otherwise, Lin Bingqing will definitely say our family is impolite. Please, please, stay for dinner. I'll personally prepare delicious food for you."
With both mother and daughter saying so, could he still just leave?
He had no choice but to stay for dinner.
Generally speaking, cultivators at the Golden Core Stage can basically abstain from eating grains, and their need for food is extremely low.
But cultivators are also people, and people inevitably interact.
So, eating and drinking are still unavoidable and will always exist.
It's just that the food and drinks are no longer ordinary items; they are all Heaven And Earth Treasure beneficial to Cultivation.
After dinner.
It was already dark.
Su Yang was about to get up and leave when Wen Yunyao pulled him again.
"You girl, what do you want to do now?"
"It's so late, the Merit Pavilion is already closed. If you want to go, you'll have to wait until tomorrow."
Wen Yunyao smiled slyly, "You should stay overnight tonight. It's not too late to exchange tomorrow morning."
Su Yang was exasperated, this girl was doing it on purpose, right!?
He had guessed correctly.
Wen Yunyao was doing it on purpose.
She just wanted to outdo Lin Bingqing.
She wanted Lin Bingqing to know that Su Yang spent more time at her house than at Lin Bingqing's, and even stayed overnight.
"Yes, Lingxiao Sword Ancestor, the Merit Pavilion is indeed closed now. You should wait until tomorrow to exchange for supplies."
"I'll have someone prepare a guest room for you. You can rest here tonight and go tomorrow."
Miao Qingsha said.
Su Yang nodded, "In that case, I will trouble Madam."
"Lingxiao Sword Ancestor is too polite."
Miao Qingsha immediately had someone prepare a guest room.
Wen Yunyao happily took his hand and led him to rest.
At his current Realm, sitting in meditation and regulating his breath was the best rest.
Su Yang sat quietly in the room.
Miao Qingsha's room.
She paced back and forth in the room, her heart pounding in a panic.
Her daughter's Cultivation had improved by a large margin this time she returned.
Yet her own Cultivation had always been stuck at the Middle Nascent Soul Stage, unable to advance further. She could feel that her Breakthrough was only a hair's breadth away, but despite all her efforts, she couldn't Breakthrough that tiny gap.
"Su Yang rarely returns to the Sect, and..."
"The children's father also happens to not be in the Sect."
"How about..."
Miao Qingsha's heart beat even faster, her face gradually flushed, and her pacing became more frequent.
She knew this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If she missed this chance, her Breakthrough would be indefinitely delayed.
Biting her red lip lightly with her pearly teeth, Miao Qingsha's steps suddenly stopped. As if making a final decision, she firmly opened the door and walked out of the room.
Feigning a leisurely stroll, she walked towards Su Yang's guest room...
