As Ning Yue Chen started walking quicker, Gu Qing Shan also increased his pace to catch up with her.
But as soon as he sped up, Ning Yue Chen also sped up.
Gu Qing Shan felt a bit strange,this girl, what are you running from?
“Oi!” he called out to her.
It was still fine before, but as soon as he called out to her, Ning Yue Chen acted like a rabbit that was missed by an arrow and rushed forward.
Gu Qing Shan could see very clearly when Ning Yue Chen was confused, she even used aspeed technique1to run.
“A speed technique… just how afraid of me are you…”
He went silent and gave up on chasing.
Of course, he doesn’t know that right now Ning Yue Chen’s face was already as red as a tomato.
Ning Yue Chen was much more sensitive than he is, so she already noticed, since this place was Bai Hua Palace, even if the Saint doesn’t mean to, she would see and hear clearly everything they said.
As soon as she realized it, she couldn’t do anything anymore, not even speak a single word.
As they walked one after another, they quickly arrived at the main gate where Gong Sun Zhi and Leng Tian Xing were waiting.
“How surprising, you actually managed to do so much, you even got accepted as the Saint’s disciple” Gong Sun Zhi sighed, his face clearly shocked.
“It all thanks to General Sun Zhi not wanting me to die right there and sent me away that I was able to do what I did” Gu Qing Shan said.
“I guess that’s called you get what you give huh?” Gong Sun Zhi smiled.
“Yes, you get what you give indeed” Gu Qing Shan also smiled.
“We’ll have to return to the frontline immediately, everyone is waiting for our report on the matter” Gong Sun Zhi said.
Then he gave a communication talisman to Gu Qing Shan.
“Contact me anytime you need” Gong Sun Zhi said.
“I still don’t have my own communication talisman yet” Gu Qing Shan explained.
“No worries, you had better work hard on your cultivation, the next time we meet, I hope to see you much stronger than you are now” Gong Sun Zhi patted his shoulder.
This youth, his talent, personality, and means are all first-rate, the only thing that’s still lacking is his cultivation.
Leng Tian Xing also walked forward and patted his shoulder.
Ning Yue Chen didn’t say anything, only looked at him for a while and turned around.
Their airship quickly left, Gu Qing Shan only needed to wait for a bit before the ship has gone far past the horizon.
Then he returned to Bai Hua Palace.
Only to see a white goose standing in the main palace, looking at him in disdain.
Gu Qing Shan was puzzled.
——–wasn’t this one of Bai Hua Fairy’s clones?
Then he heard Bai Hua Fairy’s voice from the ten thousand flowers throne, saying: “Qing Shan my disciple, come greet your first brother, Bai Ying Tian”
Gu Qing Shan was speechless.
Bai Hua Fairy actually split one of her clones to become her first disciple.
Right now, Gu Qing Shan really wants to know, just how goes on in Bai Hua Fairy’s head.
Of course, Gu Qing Shan wouldn’t say it out loud, only clasped his hand and bowed to the white good: “Before, at the green rock, I still have to thank big brother goose for letting me through, thank you”
The white goose lightly scoffed and muttered: “Ning Yue Chen wouldn’t eat you alive, this kid, why do you act so meek in front of a girl?”
Gu Qing Shan truthfully answered: “Because the first-ever lesson Shifu taught me was to not offend a beautiful woman with high cultivation without a good reason”
Did I really just say that?
It’s like he doesn’t feel as much pressure when he talks to the white goose as much as when he talks to Bai Hua Fairy’s true self.
Hm, that’s normal I guess.
He can be respectful to Shifu, but if he also acts meek and respectful to a senior brother then what kind of sword cultivator would he be?
Not only will that make Bai Hua Fairy suspicious, but with his personality, Gu Qing Shan would also not be able to keep up that act for too long.
Thinking that, Gu Qing Shan decided to let go and act how he normally does.
As soon as the white goose heard that, he really couldn’t say anything in response.
A while later, he flapped his wings: “Looks like you gotta learn a bit from your second brother regarding this matter”
Second brother?
Gu Qing Shan wasn’t clear what he meant.
On her throne, Bai Hua Fairy explained: “You have two senior brothers, and one ——–let’s say, junior sister, I’ll officially accept both of you into the sect today”
As they were speaking, two people walked into Bai Hua Palace one after another.
As Gu Qing Shan looked back, he saw that they were a male and a female.
These are the only two other people of Bai Hua sect.
The male seems to be a bit older than him, while the female was only 7-8 years old. Basically a child.
The male was quite handsome, or you could even call him pretty, in his hand was a jade fan and wore a bright belt around his waist, truly an elegant person, enough that you’d mistake him for a girl wearing men’s clothes.
While the little girl looked like she was carved from jade, with a big curious pair of eyes and twin tails, she had the shyness and nervousness of someone that suddenly met a stranger, making her very cute and lovable.
The male walked forward first, circled around Gu Qing Shan once, and breathed out.
He said: “Seems like in our Bai Hua sect, I’m still number one in good looks”
“Peh! You? You sure can talk with that girly appearance” the goose Bai Ying Tian scoffed at him.
As soon as he heard the goose say that, his face twitched a bit, but ignored it and patted Gu Qing Shan on his back, saying: “Junior brother, I’m Qin Xiao Lou ———-Xiao Lou from ‘Xiao Lou Yi Ye Ting Chun Yu’1”
The white goose interrupted him: “That’s right, swindle everywhere, lying to steal the ladies’ hearts, that’s why he’s the Lou fromYi Hong Lou1”
Qin Xiao Lou got angry, turned to the ten thousand flowers throne and bowed: “Shifu, junior brother had just come and first brother has already ruined my stage, he’s bullying me in front of you”
Bai Hua Fairy simply ignored him and said to Gu Qing Shan: “This is your second brother, Qin Xiao Lou, he has his flaws here and there, but he’s extremely smart and is well versed in all of the 6 arts”
Gu Qing Shan looked at Qin Xiao Lou and clasped his hand: “I’m Gu Qing Shan, nice you meet you, second brother”
So he’s the famous womanizer, Qin Xiao Lou.
Well versed in all of the 6 arts, to receive this praise from the Saint herself, just how heavy of a praise would that be.
Divination, formation, pills, smithing, talisman, cooking, these are the 6 arts of a cultivator. A normal cultivator who is an expert in any of them would receive overwhelming recognition and able to get vast amounts of resources for their own cultivation.
Qin Xiao Lou is a true monster in that respect, as he’s an expert in all of the 6 arts, called the seed only seen once every 1000 years of the cultivation world.
If it weren’t for that, how would he be able to satisfy Bai Hua Fairy’s high standards and become her disciple?
The only problem is that he’s not fond of cultivating and doesn’t like conflict, he was always blindly looking for fun and squander most of his time away, seen to outsiders as wasting his own talents.
Bai Hua Fairy didn’t mind all that, saying that he just hasn’t found his calling for cultivation yet.
The first time that Qin Xiao Lou truly began to focus on cultivation was 7 years later, on the day that Bai Hua Fairy passed away.
That day, from Golden Core first stage, he advanced all the way past Rejuvenation and only stopped at Ascended late stage.
That event shocked the entire cultivation world.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t revive Bai Hua Fairy anymore.
This later became his eternal regret, stopping him from leaving the realm of mortals and entering Sainted realm.
Qin Xiao Lou breathed angrily, saying to him: “Junior brother Gu, from now on, let us be good brothers, ignore first brother”
Seeing him like this, Gu Qing Shan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Saint, this is my junior brother?” a timid voice was heard.
As Gu Qing Shan turned to look, it was the little girl that asked that.
He could see the expectations in her eyes, occasionally peeking a glance at Gu Qing Shan.
The white goose flew over and consoled her: “You can’t be a senior sister yet, he’s your senior brother, my 3rd junior brother”
Sure enough, Bai Hua Fairy also spoke: “Xiu Xiu, before I’ve not officially accepted you as my disciple yet, and you’re the youngest, so today I will welcome both you and Gu Qing Shan into our sect, with you being the last”
She then spoke softly: “This way, they can all take care of you”
After hearing the latter part of what she said, the look of disappointment on Xiu Xiu’s face disappeared, instead turned into a happy ‘yes’.
Bai Hua Fairy waved her hand, as two small jade cards floated in front of Gu Qing Shan and Xiu Xiu.
Looking at the jade cards, Gu Qing Shan could see on them were the two words, “Shan” and “Xiu” respectively.
