570 – Fighting Against the Enemies Together; Mystery (5)

This was when Luo JunHao and Gong Zixuan noticed that they had already been gone from Sacred Land Zhongyuan for almost a month. It was, indeed, time for Sacred Land Zhongyuan to recruit new disciples.

“Elder Zhengzong, I apologize. If that’s the case, we will trouble you to head back first. I’m afraid I will still be tied up here for a bit longer and won’t be able to accompany you on your return trip,” said Luo JunHao apologetically.

Elder Zhengzong smiled and said, “That’s quite alright, Young Master Luo. I understand the current situation surrounding the Luo’s. They certain need you here to for now. I can surely return on my own.”

Having said that, he looked over at Gong Zixuan and understood that she wouldn’t be returning with him and said, “Does Miss Gong has any message for our Miss?”

“Nothing much, we’ll just trouble Elder Zhengzong to let Little Sister Xiao Xiao know of the current situation here and see if she has any way to help Uncle Luo rid of his poison. As Elder Zhengzong had seen, Uncle Luo is not doing to well.”

Gong Zixuan mentioned her request with a slight blush on her cheeks.

Her words reminded Luo JunHao and he gave her an appreciative look. Then, turning toward Elder Zhengzong, he cupped his hands and said, “Elder Zhengzong, Xuan-er had said what was also on my mind. You are aware of my father’s situation. The half-beast was dead and we are yet to locate the Tian’s siblings. We have no way of knowing what kind of poison is inside my father’s body. As such, we will just have to turn to Xiao Xiao to see if there is any way she can help us. Please do relate our message to her.”

“Don’t worry, Young Master Luo and Miss Gong. I will definitely bring Miss up to speed on the current situation here.”

“Thank you, Elder Zhengzong.”

Luo JunHao thanked him again and added, “Can you please also give my mother a message and have her return as well? After all, it’d be better to have her with my father.”

“Of course. I will, indeed, relate the message.”

Elder Zhengzong did not stay for much longer before he bid them farewell, summoned the mystical crane and started on his way back.

Over at Sacred Land Zhongyuan.

“Grandma!” Cheng Xiao Xiao called out from the bottom of a waterfall to the person on top. Even the sound of the waterfall could not drown out her voice.

Fang Shuyun, Old Mrs. Cheng, standing on top of the mountain saw her granddaughter and looked down and smiled.

“Grandma, your idea was fantastic. Little Yuteng said she can create an illusion here for the 500-step flight of stairs. Not only would our disciples be able to train here, our elders would be as well!”

“Wonderful!” Old Mrs. Cheng smiled gently and nodded. “This is a very important experience. No matter who it is, it’d provide good experiences in both the mental and physical sides. This is not something that can be done just anywhere.”

Over time, Old Mrs. Cheng, who had surveyed the entire Sacred Land Zhongyuan and made quite a few suggestions. Especially this waterfall, which was somewhat unique for Sacred Land Zhongyuan, had only been used by the disciples for bathing up to this point.

After Old Mrs. Cheng had taken a look of this place, she suggested to build a flight of stairs here and on illusions to allow the disciples to train. Her suggestion was very well received by the others. Even Little Yuteng thought that the suggestion was wonderful. In essence, it would be an added location for the disciples of Sacred Land Zhongyuan to train.

“Yes, Grandma, Little Yuteng said other things will also be added in addition of the illusion.”

“Oh, I can’t wait to see what else is she going to add!”

“Little Yuteng is very knowledgeable. I am sure we will be pleasantly surprised!”

“Xiao Xiao, so many of the difficulties that Sacred Land Zhongyuan faced can be solved by Little Yuteng. This is great and you surely are one lucky one!”

A flash of envy crossed Old Mrs. Chen’s eyes. The more she had learned about the dimension and Little Yuteng, the more envious she was of Cheng Xiao Xiao.

She was envious of her granddaughter’s luck for being able to come across all these.
