Chapter 1078: Chapter 574: The Capital Cos to an End! (Part 2)
“When does the elder think the right ti will co?”
“The general trend is unpredictable, no one can foresee it.”
Chen Yuan smiled; this was still painting a pie for him.
In tis of need, aid is hard to gamble on, but embellishnts naturally co.
“Well, then I shall thank the elder. It’s getting late; let’s hope fate will let us et again soday.” Chen Yuan waved his hand with no sincerity, thinking that continuing the conversation was rather pointless.
When he grows strong in the future, Taixu Palace will naturally co out to assist.
“Marquis, wait a mont.”
Perhaps having seen through Chen Yuan’s thoughts, Daoist Tianxu took a deep breath, feeling he had to bet big; otherwise, if this man truly had the chance to get the world, Taixu Palace wouldn’t stand a chance.
“Daoist, please speak.”
Chen Yuan’s switch in addressing was very smooth and seamless.
“The south hides many dragons and cannot be underestimated. Biyou Palace resides in South State, originating from the sa source as Taixu Palace. The Sect Leader True Monarch has a profound friendship with this humble Daoist. This Jade Token is the order of Taixu Palace. If the Marquis were to be troubled in the south one day, he can use this item to seek Biyou Palace’s help, which will surely not be refused.”
A Jade Token emitting white light appeared in Daoist Tianxu’s hand at so unknown ti. It was crystal clear, evidently extraordinary, representing his token.
“Biyou Palace….”
Chen Yuan took the Taixu Token and examined it closely.
He had naturally heard Su Ziyue speak of Taixu Palace, one of the ten Immortal Sects, which resides in South State and has a reputation for teaching without discrimination, with considerable renown.
It definitely can stand shoulder to shoulder with Wudang and Shushan.
“Then I shall thank the elder.”
Chen Yuan’s expression changed faster than turning a page, showing a slight smile.
Being a strong ally, he certainly couldn’t refuse.
Taixu Palace had placed a bet on him, seeking future returns, not counting as a favor, just needing to be kept in mind.
“I hope the Marquis will not disappoint this humble Daoist and rember what was just said to bring great peace to the ages.” Daoist Tianxu said solemnly.
“Sweep the Four Barbarians, stabilize the world. If I hold the position of ruler, I will surely establish an unprecedented empire.”
“Good.”
“Is the elder planning to stay in the Capital?”
“Observing the world’s great trend, nurturing dragons and tigers within the heart. Consolidating the five Qi within the chest, gathering the Three Flowers on the crown. I, Daoist Tianxu, will patiently await the Marquis’s return.” Daoist Tianxu bowed with respect.
“The elder can await quietly.”
Chen Yuan turned and left, leaving behind a lingering tone.
…
…
After speaking boastfully at Qingyun Temple, Chen Yuan felt satisfied, gaining a potential ally, making the visit worthwhile, and giving him more confidence and assurance in future dealings in the south.
However, this card of Biyou Palace cannot be hastily revealed for now; perhaps it will have great use later.
Bidding farewell to the old Daoist Tianxu and his sister-in-law Li Hongshuang, Chen Yuan had only two people left in Divine Capital City. One couldn’t be seen in the palace naturally, leading him smoothly to Zhang Mansion.
Knowing that he might co, Zhang Yantong was not at the mansion.
After greeting the butler Chen Bo, Chen Yuan quietly appeared in the backyard of Zhang Mansion, looking forward. The usually gentle Zhang’s second sister was drying clothes on a bamboo building.
This was her exclusive small courtyard, with a two-story bamboo building that was out of place with the grand mansion, yet upon closer inspection, there seed to be a unique charm, not appearing abrupt.
It wasn’t Chen Yuan’s first visit, so he was familiar, and with his cultivation, even without intentionally hiding, Zhang’s second sister wouldn’t notice him.
Until Chen Yuan reached downstairs, looking up, the above Zhang’s second sister noticed Chen Yuan standing below, a hint of joy flashed across her face, whether intentionally or unintentionally, a small bamboo stick supporting the clothes fell straight down.
Caught by Chen Yuan, his gaze thoughtful.
Zhang’s second sister’s face turned red, quickly coming down the bamboo building, glanced at Chen Yuan, and softly asked:
“Why are you here?”
“Was second sister intentional or unintentional?”
“Of course unintentionally, otherwise what do you think?”
“I?”
Chen Yuan’s gaze flickered, feeling sothing wasn’t right.
A while back, when he accompanied Zhang Wanshu to Lin’an Prefecture to watch the fish leap over the dragon gate, he took her through the streets of Lin’an Prefecture City, and in idle tis, he had told her a story.
Then Chen Yuan told a story of ‘Water Margin’.
With a limited span, Chen Yuan recounted a story from Qinghe County, now it seems, second sister truly learned and applied it, with quite so thoughts.
“Are you here to say goodbye?”
Zhang’s second sister knew her father was about to leave, also knowing Chen Yuan was about to leave; after all, her father told her upon returning from the court eting.
Decided to leave Chen Yuan with a relatively profound mory.
“Yes, I’m leaving tomorrow, worried about second sister, ca to see.” Chen Yuan smiled.
To say he had no feelings for Zhang’s second sister would be a lie, but to say they were deep was not true either, as they had only known each other for a little over six months in total.
Not deep contact.
But in the few short encounters, he had rembered Zhang’s second sister, now that concerns were removed, he should not leave without an explanation.
“Shall we go inside to sit?”
“Sit… sit… this… this isn’t very appropriate, is it?”
Chen Yuan perceived his surroundings, feeling that the old Zhang was nearby, unsure if it was a delusion, imagination, or truly spying from afar.
“We aren’t eting for the first ti, what’s the harm, co….” Zhang’s second sister saw Chen Yuan seed a bit relaxed, not restrained, blushing and pulling Chen Yuan into the bamboo house.
Pouring Chen Yuan a cup of Spiritual Tea, Zhang’s second sister talked extensively about past events, things she wanted to beco Chen Yuan’s mories now as well.
