Chapter 570: I Have High Hopes for You!
Han Jing had just asked the question when Lian Xichen instinctively answered, "Jingluo Lake."
"What?" Lan Ling’s jaw dropped in disbelief, looking at Lian Xichen.
Han Jing looked puzzled, "Where is Jingluo Lake?"
Lan Ling, with a strange expression, explained to Han Jing, "Jingluo Lake is directly west of Flame Mountain, with a stream, Yunxi, in between."
Han Jing...
"And where is Flame Mountain?" Can you explain it clearly!
"The Spirit Flame Sect is built on Flame Mountain! Didn’t I mention this?" Lan Ling...
Han Jing...
So...did Lian Xichen mean to build the Prayer Pavilion next to the Spirit Flame Sect?
Is this...realistic?
Han Jing also looked at Lian Xichen with doubt, "Is that appropriate?"
Lian Xichen glanced at Lan Ling.
Lan Ling explained, "It couldn’t be more suitable, but Jingluo Lake is really not a good place."
"What’s going on with that?" An Chuxue asked.
They had been in the Spirit Cultivation Realm for a few years, but had never left the Ghost Realm, and didn’t have time to explore, so they were completely unaware of the Spirit Cultivation Realm’s regional issues.
Lan Ling rummaged around in his space artifact for quite a while and finally pulled out a roll of regional maps, spreading it on the table.
It was a very detailed region map of the Spirit Cultivation Realm. As Lan Ling spread out the map, he couldn’t help boasting, "I pestered the Old Man for a whole year for this map, and he only gave me one copy. He only drew three copies in total: one is with Old Man Yun, one he kept himself, and the other one I managed to snag. Finally, it’s coming in handy."
When he was coaxing Su Yu for this map back then, it was purely for show-off purposes. Although many auction houses and the Treasure Pavilion sold maps of the Spirit Cultivation Realm, this map was different! It’s detailed for sure, made with water and fire-resistant Ice Silk, but that’s not the main point. The main point is that this map was forged using artifact refining techniques, allowing it to perfectly and realistically present the true scenes of different places.
As Lan Ling laid the map on the table, Ghost Ancestor became excited, scooting over to the map with gleaming eyes, "You brat! You actually have a Cloudscape Map and kept it hidden!"
Ghost Ancestor practically wanted to claw at Lan Ling, "Old Man Yun showed off so many times in front of me! I even thick-skinnedly went to ask Yun Peng for it a few times, but they said none were left! To think you had one here!"
He didn’t forget to poke Lan Ling with his cane, "Do you understand what it means to show filial respect? Understand filial respect?"
Lan Ling hid behind Han Jing, making a face at Ghost Ancestor, "Old man, why are you so excited? As the saying goes, a master is half a father. Once Little Jing zi brings back Old Man, he’ll be your son-in-law. How many Cloudscape Maps do you want then? Still thinking about taking my stuff, aren’t you ashamed!"
Ghost Ancestor snorted twice but suddenly found that this brat made perfect sense! Back then, when Old Man Yun got good stuff, he always liked to show it off to us old timers. But now Yun Peng is his half-son-in-law! Once those messy troubles are resolved, he’ll have to, hmm, make things difficult for his son-in-law properly!
Ghost Ancestor immediately straightened his back, his face stern as he said to Han Jing, "Hmmph, Jing’er, this Master has high hopes for you!"
