Today.
A cheerful male voice ca from outside the temporary residence of the Huangfu Family: "Is Brother Peng Cheng here?"
Huangfu Peng Cheng, who was serving the Ancestor, was delighted. He quickly ran to the door and bowed deeply to the visitor: "Peng Cheng greets Senior Brother Jinshan. Please co inside; I have prepared so top-grade Spirit Tea."
He treated Senior Brother Jinshan with great respect and kindness. Firstly, because he needed sothing from him this ti. Secondly, this "Senior Brother Jinshan" was not yet sixty years old but was already a mid-stage Spirit Platform Realm expert. He was a core disciple of the Eternal Spring Valley line and handled many miscellaneous affairs as a core disciple.
Such a significant figure, how could Huangfu Peng Cheng dare to look down on him? Therefore, he spent a considerable amount of effort and wealth to forge a connection with Senior Brother Jinshan and beca close with him, hoping to request an audience with Changchun Ascendant through him.
"Well..." Senior Brother Jinshan, still with his usual appearance, had a sowhat solemn expression this ti, "I won’t be drinking the Spirit Tea. I’ve co this ti to notify Brother Peng Cheng of sothing."
Huangfu Peng Cheng, who had served as a Patriarch, felt his heart skip a beat at these words. After currying favor with Senior Brother Jinshan before, they had beco very close.
Now he wouldn’t even enter to drink tea, which likely ant sothing had taken a turn for the worse.
As expected.
Senior Brother Jinshan coughed twice and said, "It was a bit presumptuous of , Jinshan, to say I would introduce you to my Master. Unexpectedly, my Master suddenly went into closed-door cultivation. I shall return all the things Brother Peng Cheng sent."
As he spoke, he took out a Storage Ring and handed it back to Huangfu Peng Cheng.
Huangfu Peng Cheng was flustered and hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Jinshan, how long will the Ascendant need to be in seclusion? We can wait!"
"How would I know how long my Master will be in seclusion?" Senior Brother Jinshan replied perfunctorily, sowhat impatiently, "It could be as short as five or six years, or as long as several decades. I dare not casually ask about my Master’s affairs. Farewell, farewell."
Saying this, he ignored Huangfu Peng Cheng’s attempts to keep him and hastily left, as if fleeing.
Huangfu Peng Cheng’s heart sank to the bottom.
This, this, this... Previously, Senior Brother Jinshan was very enthusiastic, confidently assuring that he would help. But unexpectedly, things changed in the blink of an eye.
What exactly happened, what should be done?
In a place where Huangfu Peng Cheng couldn’t see, as soon as Senior Brother Jinshan stepped out, he turned a few corners and encountered a young girl in a purple long dress. She looked quiet, gentle, and pretty, exuding a clean and pure aura like a girl-next-door.
Upon seeing her, a hint of apprehension and fear flickered in Senior Brother Jinshan’s eyes. It wasn’t that he couldn’t defeat this girl, but her reputation within Purple Mansion Academy was already sowhat frightening, and in so ways even surpassed another’s.
Most importantly, she was Wang Shouzhe’s sister! He couldn’t afford to provoke Junior Brother Shouzhe.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Jinshan." The girl respectfully saluted and handed over a few bottles of Spiritual Honey, "These bottles of Hundred Flowers Spiritual Honey are a small token of my appreciation; please do not refuse, Senior Brother Jinshan."
This girl was, of course, the fifth lady of the Wang Family, Wang Luojing.
Senior Brother Jinshan hurriedly accepted the Hundred Flowers Spiritual Honey, looking both honored and surprised: "Junior Sister Luojing, there’s no need to be so polite. I am in the sa sect as Shouzhe. Had I not known, it might be different, but knowing the inside story, how could I possibly aid the unjust? However, this matter must remain confidential, as I could be seen as having participated in a noble family rivalry."
These small bottles of Hundred Flowers Spiritual Honey were worth less than a tenth of what the Huangfu Family offered, yet Senior Brother Jinshan was quite pleased. This little devil girl seed quiet but had always been indifferent, never giving the ti of day to various senior brothers.
"Senior Brother Jinshan, you truly are a good person." Wang Luojing smiled faintly, expressing her gratitude, "So of my senior sisters from the Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies have spoken highly of Senior Brother Jinshan, saying you are a kind-hearted person."
Senior sisters from the Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies?
Senior Brother Jinshan beca spirited at once and eagerly asked, "Which senior sister had such insight? Indeed, I am a kind-hearted person, Jinshan. Junior Sister Luojing, tell their nas, and I’ll visit with gifts."
"..." Wang Luojing was montarily speechless.
