Chapter 116: Being refreshed by junior sister, Yanran is numb
After the Great Elder had finished explaining, he anxiously observed Leng Yanran, fearing that she might not believe him. After all, Li Yourong had already become a disciple of that esteemed senior Chen.
If Leng Yanran were to complain to Senior Chen, their Holy Mountain could face significant trouble.
Upon hearing the Great Elder's explanation, Leng Yanran was momentarily taken aback. Soon after, she let out a sigh.
Without a trace of doubt, she chose to believe the Great Elder's words. After all, this was indeed something that Yourong could do... Furthermore, the Great Elder had no reason to deceive her. When they reached the mountain, she could verify if Yourong was truly given a grand hall.
"Hey hey, Senior Sister, Yourong's house is quite decent, isn't it?"
Li Yourong, however, failed to sense the tension that had just hung in the air between everyone. She looked at her senior sister with anticipation and asked.
"Well... if you had to put it that way, it does actually resemble a house. Except that it's not really a house... but it's all good..."
Leng Yanran glanced at her junior sister and then at the pitiful small stone house. Eventually, she laboriously responded.
After uttering those words, she felt a twinge of guilt. If it weren't for the sake of considering her junior sister's feelings, she would have been tempted to blast that stone house to smithereens with a single shot—how dare something so hideous call itself a house!
The misunderstanding was resolved, and the two elders heaved a long sigh of relief.The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B11n.
"Let's go up the mountain first, and we'll talk after we go up the mountain."
After the Great Elder regained his composure, he continued to walk up the mountain.
"Wait a moment! Elder, hold on. I need to bring along my best friend to introduce to Senior Sister," interjected Li Yourong once again, interrupting the Great Elder. She darted toward her stone house with excitement.
Seeing this, the two elders exchanged a glance, recognizing the exasperation in each other's eyes. Meanwhile, Leng Yanran couldn't help but grow curious. Could her junior sister really have someone living in that stone house?
She couldn't sense any human presence, though...
Before she could inquire with the elders, she witnessed Li Yourong return, cheerfully carrying a large white goose in her grasp. The goose struggled incessantly, clearly unwilling to be held captive. But Li Yourong paid no mind to its protests.
As they continued their journey, nothing unexpected occurred, and before long, the four of them arrived at a flat area atop the mountain.
Before them were seven grand halls, arching to protect the two at the center. Observing this arrangement, Leng Yanran couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement.
Judging from the layout of these halls, the position of the Holy Maidens seems to surpass even that of the Elders? This Holy Mountain is indeed peculiar...
There's no supreme authority over the Holy Mountain. Seven Elders jointly govern it, even sharing the responsibility of nurturing the Holy Mountain's cultivation.
"Brother is back? Has the matter with the Ren Family been resolved?"
Seeing the return of the Great Elder, other Elders promptly appeared. This time, they descended the mountain due to a plea for aid from the Ren Family. However, with the presence of the Great Elder and the Second Elder, any issue in the Eastern Region must have been handled with ease.
"Uh... The matter with the Ren Family has been settled."
The Great Elder was momentarily taken aback, then glanced at me before addressing the other Elders.
"Yes, as long as it's resolved. Ah? Saintess Yourong is also back? Hmm? Wait! What do you mean by 'the Ren Family has been settled'?"
One Elder nodded slightly, smiling. Soon, he noticed Li Yourong's presence as well as the young woman from the Demon Race whe he had never seen before. Given her power at such a young age, she was undoubtedly a prodigy!
Yet, before he could inquire further, a sense of unease crept in What did the Great Elder mean by "the Ren Family has been settled"?
"Uh... that esteemed Senior Chen from the Northern Region took action against the Ren Family. Our Holy Mountain couldn't intervene. Furthermore, let me introduce this young friend. She is the esteemed Senior Chen's senior disciple! Oh, by the way, where is Shenruo?"
...
