After they sat down, they began to talk about the many things they had seen concerning the Demon Race.
Wen Ling’er, with practiced movements, went to prepare the tea, serve it, and then she brought a cushion and kneeled behind the screen, quietly waiting for Li Ping’an’s summons.
In the role of a maid, her performance was quite professional.
Li Ping’an and the other two chatted while drinking tea, and soon the conversation turned to the Sunset Divine Arrows.
Gu Qingcheng said, “Regarding the whereabouts of the Sunset Divine Arrows, we have indeed found a clue.
It is said that seven of the nine divine arrows were refined by a great power of the Demon Race into a formidable magical treasure.”
Li Ping’an almost blurted out: “The Immortal-Slaying Flying Dagger?”
“Right!” Gu Qingcheng smiled and said, “Senior Brother, don’t you already know about this?”
“Ah, I’ve just heard about it.
The other two divine arrows are said to have fallen into the hands of ministers of the Ancient Heavenly Court, and those ministers are now giants of the Demon Race.”
Li Ping’an slowly nodded and once again cupped his hands in thanks.
He smiled and said, “What kind of dishes do you two like?
I’ll cook a few, and we won’t return until we’re drunk.”
“Oh my, cooking is unnecessary; we’ve transcended the need for food.
What would we eat?” Gu Qingcheng rubbed his hands and said, “Just have alcohol and chess, that’s enough!”
Li Ping’an laughed and said, “I am not good at playing chess.”
Behind the screen, Wen Ling’er immediately stirred, quickly presenting the chessboard and skillfully setting it up.
Li Ping’an looked at her, his initial displeasure fading away, and his voice became more gentle: “Go cultivate, there’s no need for you to do these menial tasks.”
“Hey,” Wen Ling’er said with a giggle, “Little Ancestor knows how to be kind!
Dazhi Grandmaster scolds me every day.”
Li Ping’an couldn’t help but laugh bitterly: “Call me by my name, and stop with the ‘Little Ancestor’.
It sounds too awkward.”
“All right, Little Ancestor.”
“Yes, Ping’an Little Ancestor.”
Li Ping’an frowned, looked up at Wen Ling’er, who blinked and whispered, “How about I call you ‘Senior Brother’?”
“Call me Little Ancestor, Little Ancestor is fine.”
“Okay,” Wen Ling’er cheerfully complied, “thank you, Little Ancestor.”
Li Ping’an sighed in resignation and couldn’t help but raise his hand to his forehead, while Gu Qingcheng and Yu Yingshu exchanged glances.
After Wen Ling’er left behind the screen, they couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
According to Yu Yingshu, being able to witness Senior Brother Ping’an being put in his place was indeed a rare spectacle at Wanyun Sect.
Li Ping’an shook his head and produced two pots of fine wine he had obtained from his father, taking one while Gu Qingcheng took the other.
To Li Ping’an’s slight surprise…
This handsome and dashing sword cultivator, although enthusiastic about playing chess, turned out to be a terrible player;
On the other hand, Yu Yingshu, who looked rough and unpolished as a body cultivator, had an aggressive and powerful chess style, truly a hidden expert.
After a half-day of frolicking, Gu Qingcheng and Yu Yingshu had earned enough bragging rights to boast back at their respective peaks before departing on their flying artifacts.
Li Ping’an watched Wen Ling’er carefully kneeling behind the screen, hesitating several times before speaking.
In the end, he shook his head and handed her a Jade Talisman.
“Please make a trip to the Castcloud Hall and ask my father to come here when he has time.”
“If my father does not come within three days, I’ll go there myself.”
Wen Ling’er quickly agreed and hurried away with the Jade Talisman.
After she left, Qing Su appeared on a recliner nearby, sizing up Li Ping’an from head to toe.
“Are you angry, disciple?”
“Master,” Li Ping’an stood up to greet her, then lay back down, rubbing his forehead as he sighed, “Master, why did you leave her here?”
“Her cooking is quite good,” added Qing Su, “you can’t always cook, you need to focus on cultivation.
Having her here is not bad, I can give her some guidance.”
Li Ping’an asked, “Master, you like her quite a bit?”
“So-so,” said Qing Su, “she has also had a hard life.”
Li Ping’an chuckled internally: ‘Wen Ling’er probably wouldn’t appreciate such commentary.’
“If Master likes her, then let her stay,” Li Ping’an laughed, “speaking of which, she also knows shape-shifting magic, something I’ve wanted to learn.”
“Hmm?” Qing Su asked, “Shape-shifting magic?
I happen to know a technique as well.”
Li Ping’an’s eyes suddenly lit up; this could be a life-saving ability, and the ‘Seventy-Two Transformations’ he was most familiar with were also used for evading calamities, weren’t they?
Qing Su floated up, closed her eyes, and became enveloped in the Ice Blue Immortal Light.
The next moment, colorful divine light radiated from her, her skin became transparent, and her form slowly turned into…
The rich essence of the Heavenly Immortal’s Dao Charm unfolded dramatically.
The immortal power fermenting within the glacier, if fully unleashed, could level this small mountain to the ground.
Withdraw your divine skill!”
The voice of Qing Su came from the glacier as the colorful divine light gradually retracted, and the phenomenon dissolved into specks of light that scattered throughout the cave.
Qing Su laughed and said, “How’s that?
I can transform into a block of ice and control the clouds in a thousand-mile radius with this technique!”
Li Ping’an expressed his admiration, “Master, how did you do that?”
“Well, I’m not entirely sure,” Qing Su flipped her palm, revealing a ball of colorful divine light, “this is a precious treasure I found at an ancient relic in the East Sea.”
