"Hehe, Master is the best!"
Qing Jun was kissing so happily, sitting in her Master’s arms, holding her Master’s face with small hands, and said seriously,
"Master is the most amazing Taoist in the world!"
"Pah! What nonsense!"
Chen Ye glared at the disciple full of nonsense.
The disciple pouted, "Master is an old Taoist!"
She originally wanted to retort, but seeing her Master’s stern face, she didn’t dare continue.
Hmph!
Nasty Master, always showing off in front of the disciple!
Forget it, forget it.
She’s big-hearted and won’t argue with Master!
Thinking of this.
Qing Jun quickly put on a flattering smile, hugged her Master’s neck, and swayed: "Qing Jun was just joking, Master, don’t take it seriously... how about this, Qing Jun gives Master a kiss, and Master won’t be angry anymore!"
The little girl puckered her lips and planted a big kiss on Master’s face.
The little girl kissed, and the little girl was shocked!
Master’s face is so soft!
How is it as soft as Qing Jun’s?
Qing Jun’s eyes widened in astonishment and she pecked on Master’s face several more times, disbelieving.
Chen Ye’s face was covered with saliva from the kisses, leaving Master’s face numb:
"Old Taoist Xu, have you kissed enough?"
"Not yet... wait a minute!"
Qing Jun still wanted to investigate Master’s skin, but suddenly realized what was happening.
She immediately got angry:
"Master, what are you saying? You shut up! Qing Jun is not an old Taoist! Master is not allowed to insult Qing Jun!"
Alright!
The double-standard little girl.
This girl even knows that "old Taoist" is an insult!
Yet, she’s always calling Master an old Taoist!
Chen Ye sighed helplessly, peeled the little disciple clinging to him like an octopus off his body, and placed her on the ground.
Qing Jun, being very small, covered her little bottom with both hands, tilted her face up, and watched Master warily.
She thought, Master must be angry and is going to scold her!
As it turned out,
Master didn’t pay attention to her at all and said to the other two disciples with a smile:
"Alright, alright, quit fooling around. I have something serious to talk about."
"Something serious?"
Zhiwei, also remembering something, became downcast and said softly,
"Then Master, go ahead with your business. The disciple understands Master’s..."
Chen Ye: "...The serious matter is that I’m taking you to the Lingyin Sect’s Gathering to prepare for today’s Second Tier Magical Treasure. Now that she has established her Foundation, as her Master, I should prepare for her."
The so-called Gathering,
is actually a place similar to a market within the Lingyin Sect.
After all, even disciples of the immortal sect need entertainment and consumption...
And after Chen Ye killed the demon cultivators, he happened to go to Black Cliff City to rescue Zhang Chuxi, and while there, he sold some of Mei Suxin’s demon treasures like the Peach Blossom Barrier.
Now he had 22,000 spirit stones on him, quite generous, enough to prepare a Magical Treasure for Jin’er that wouldn’t lose to Qing Jun or Zhiwei’s.
"Speaking of which, I remember Xu Henshan said the Xu Family will also prepare a Magical Treasure for Qing Jun... but why hasn’t he sent over the second treasure yet?"
Chen Ye murmured in his heart.
"The Gathering?!"
Qing Jun’s attention was instantly diverted, her eyes lighting up like little light bulbs,
"Yay! I want to buy lots of delicious food! And buy beautiful vestment robes!"
Zhiwei, hearing this, also lifted her head, a hint of delight flashing in her eyes.
She had thought Master would be off on "official business" again, but unexpectedly, he’s taking them out to have fun.
"Alright, as you wish."
Chen Ye waved his big hand, full of heroic spirit,
"Today, Master is treating!"
"Long live Master!"
"Qing Jun’s stomach can’t wait to be filled with tasty treats!"
The disciples cheered and jumped joyfully.
Keep in mind, it had been nearly half a year since Chen Ye last took them out to play.
This was the first time ever that all three disciples were taken out together.
"Let’s go!"
Chen Ye waved his hand grandly, leading three apprentices, his gaze falling upon the little white fox playing dead in the corner.
"You’re coming too."
The little white fox shivered, shaking its head frantically.
It’s definitely not going! It wants to stay home and sleep!
Chen Ye snorted coldly, "That’s not up to you..."
He casually tied a dog leash to the little white fox and gave it a satisfied tug.
Perfect.
Taking a pet out on the town is certainly excellent.
The little white fox: "..."
It closed its eyes in despair.
...
Yunji, the trading place for Lingyin Sect disciples, although small in scale, is actually much more upscale and bustling than the Moon Rhinoceros Lake District.
On either side of the street, luxurious architectures lined up one after another, various dazzling magical treasures, pills, and spirit grass presenting an impressive variety, making one’s eyes dazzle.
Chen Ye walked in the center, with the cold and ethereal Zhiwei on the left, the newly Foundation Establishment stage, icy Jin’er on the right, a silver-haired little loli in his arms looking around, and in his hand a little white fox with a red scarf around its neck—the little white fox was unwilling to wear the scarf its mother left behind, but felt the bell on its neck was too shameful, so it covered it with the scarf.
This combination, even in Lingyin Sect, is quite eye-catching.
After all, the three girls are each breathtakingly beautiful and cute, and as for Chen Ye’s appearance, needless to say, even the little white fox... *cough cough*, this fox is also very cute.
In the past, Chen Ye would never dare to be this high-profile.
But now, being a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Middle Period, backed by Xu Henshan at the Foundation Establishment Ninth Layer, the future leader of the sect Bai Susu as his support, he can walk sideways in the vast territory of the Yan Kingdom, without any fear of causing trouble.
"Wow! That’s candied fruit! Candied fruit made from spirit fruit!"
Qing Jun, upon entering Yunji, was like a mouse falling into a rice bin, curiously murmuring,
"Master, it’s so strange, why is there candied fruit everywhere..."
Chen Ye laughed, "Delicious things are popular everywhere, buy, Master will buy it for you all!"
He waved his big hand, directly bought a bunch, one string per person, even the little white fox got a hawthorn.
The little girl thought so too, happily pecked her master’s face again: "Master is the best!"
This little girl... why does she keep kissing her master today?
Chen Ye disdainfully wiped his face.
This made Qing Jun unhappy, she raised her eyebrows fiercely, "Master, if you dare wipe again, Qing Jun will spit on you!"
"Humph, I’m going to wipe! If your senior apprentice or junior apprentice kisses the master, master definitely wouldn’t wipe..."
Chen Ye glanced at the first and third apprentice.
Zhiwei frowned slightly: "Master... that’s a bit frivolous."
Jin’er shrank her shoulders, softly said, "Master... do you want a... kiss..."
She pinched her clothing corner, looking very scared.
Chen Ye: "...Master is just joking."
Qing Jun triumphantly said, "Only Qing Jun doesn’t mind Master being an old man!"
Sigh.
Now Chen Ye really couldn’t refute.
He planned to harshly teach Zhang Chuxi later on, to relieve his inner frustration.
Strolling, stopping and chatting along the way, finally everyone arrived at the place selling magical treasures in Yunji.
This place is called Xuanyue Hall.
The entire building is constructed of moon-white cold jade, with flying eaves and angled corners, majestic in grandeur, flanked by two lifelike white jade qilin statues at the entrance.
"Master... how about we go somewhere else..."
Jin’er’s legs were trembling a bit, in such a place, the items inside, don’t need to think to know they’re expensive!
Chen Ye rubbed her little head, "Your master is swimming in wealth, not lacking in spirit stones!"
He took the silver-haired little loli nested in his arms down, turning to hold Jin’er’s hand.
Jin’er blinked her eyes, instinctively clenched Master’s hand, whispering, "Oh..."
As for Qing Jun?
Needless to say more, she had once again incarnated into an angry pufferfish.
Just entering the door, a fragrance of sandalwood wafted over, calming the mind.
The hall was spacious and bright, assorted magical treasures displayed within, from weapons like knives, spears, swords, halberds to silk and satin, anything imaginable.
This place has always been prepared for disciples of considerable status within the sect, where transactions can be made with spirit stones or contribution points.
"So it’s Guardian Chen, apologies, apologies!"
A steward dressed in a pale purple Taoist robe, with the Xuanyue logo embroidered on the chest, approached with a smile.
Now Chen Ye’s name is well known within the sect, coupled with his unique aura of life and death, anyone with some knowledge could recognize him.
"No need for such politeness, my friend."
Chen Ye smiled slightly,
"I want to pick out some handy magical treasures for my apprentices, I wonder if there are any recommendations?"
"Guardian Chen’s cherished apprentices naturally deserve the best." The steward replied respectfully with a smile, explaining, "Xuanyue Hall is the industry of the Fourth Elder, every item within is a treasure."
"Fourth Elder?" Chen Ye raised an eyebrow.
"Indeed... speaking of which, today the fourth elder’s daughter is in the hall..."
