C362 Story
Zhuge Bai and Ceng Yin both looked towards Wu Shuang. Seeing him shake his head at them, the two of them chose to stay behind.
"Haha, very good. Then let us have a pleasant time." As the woman spoke, she spread out her arms. A long table and three long benches appeared in the center of the parlour. On the long table, there was a pot of tea and a few plates of fruits and vegetables.
Since he was already here, he might as well take care of it. Wu Shuang pulled open a bench and sat down on it. Then he picked up the teapot calmly and poured himself a cup.
"Wu Shuang." Ceng Yin shouted, reminding him to pay attention to something. Wu Shuang, however, didn't mind and raised his teacup to take a sip.
When the tea entered his stomach, it was as sweet and fragrant as a green plum after a rain. Wu Shuang immediately felt relaxed. Sweat began to faintly appear on his body.
"Good tea, good tea! Older Brother Ceng, you guys drink a cup as well!" Wu Shuang waved his hand and invited him.
"Of course it's good tea. This is my master's treasure. Drink a bit, a bit less." As she said that, the woman sat down beside Wu Shuang. She waved her hand and picked up a spirit fruit that looked like a mango. She said, "Try this again. You'll like it."
Wu Shuang did not reject any of them. He picked up the fruit and took a bite. The sour taste constantly assaulted his taste buds, and for some reason, the Heavenly Note Force in his body also started to stir up, stopping his cultivation for a long time.
"This fruit, this fruit …" Wu Shuang was extremely excited. He immediately ate a few more mouthfuls. His happy expression had yet to freeze when his eyes suddenly rolled up and he fell face first onto the table.
Ceng Yin and Zhuge Bai were eager to give it a try when they saw Wu Shuang's excited look earlier. Zhuge Bai even opened his seat and sat down. When he saw Wu Shuang's sudden appearance, he was shocked.
Ceng Yin's face turned cold and rushed to Wu Shuang's side. He sniffed Wu Shuang's nose and yelled at the woman, "Tell me, what have you done to my brother?"
"Hehe, I'll swallow it all in one gulp, then change it to a clear sky. This fruit can let a normal person become a Heavenly Sound Master, and it will also benefit Heavenly Sound Master greatly. If I eat too much, who knows how long I'll sleep for."
The woman contentedly sat on the chair to the east of the long table and poured herself a cup of green tea. She didn't even need to drink it before the light green tea liquid turned into wisps of mist and gradually disappeared.
Ceng Yin frowned. Regardless of whether what the woman said was true or not, he was still on guard. He carried Wu Shuang to a distant place and leaned against a pillar as he sat down.
When he turned around, Zhuge Bai was still standing in front of the table. He didn't know whether to sit or leave, but the woman had just finished a cup of tea.
"Why, don't you want to sit down and listen to my master's story?" The woman invited again.
"Hmph, just listen. If the story isn't good, then I won't pay." Zhuge Bai gritted his teeth and pulled a chair to the south. Ceng Yin also walked over and sat in front of Wu Shuang. The tea set in front of him had automatically been replaced with a brand-new one.
"Go ahead." Ceng Yin didn't eat nor drink. He stared straight at the girl's flawless but strange face.
"Hur hur, it's impolite to be staring at a lady like that." The young woman laughed tenderly, but didn't seem to mind. She began to narrate her story.
Zhuge Bai, who was at the side, heard the interesting part. He picked up a bunch of pink Spirit Fruits. On them, there were three fruits the size of longan fruits and they emitted a faint luster.
She could not help but take a bite. As the sweet juice overflowed, her eyes suddenly brightened. Everything she saw was a hundred times clearer than before. She was so shocked that she quickly rubbed her eyes.
The world in front of her eyes had never been so clear before. She could even see every single strand of fur on the butterfly that flew around her.
It was obviously a happy occasion, but Zhuge Bai's face showed a hint of bitterness. Ceng Yin, who had been paying attention to her, immediately asked: "What's wrong, is there something wrong?"
Zhuge Bai shook his head. He held the Spirit Fruit skewer in his hand, took a sip of saliva and said, "No, it's so delicious, and my vision has become much better than before. But, if I just eat one more, I won't fall asleep, right?"
This glutton …
Ceng Yin chose to cover his face, but the girl beside him smiled and said, "No worries, this is the Clear Sight Fruit, it can't be considered precious. Eating too much will only make you too energetic, so you can't fall asleep."
"Haha, then I'm relieved." Zhuge Bai laughed and ate another Clear Sight Fruit. Soon after, his face revealed an intoxicated expression.
"You previously said that your master was born with a miserable life, that his parents died young, that he grew up dragging his brother along by himself, and that he did not have the potential to become a Heavenly Sound Master. Then how did he obtain his current strength?" Ceng Yin poured himself a cup of tea and asked.
He could also see that the green tea spirit fruit on the table was not ordinary. If he missed this village, he would most likely regret it and put down his airs.
"That's what I'm going to say next."
A round fan had appeared in the woman's hand at some point. She shook it gently and said, "That day, Master went to the mountains to gather herbs and accidentally fell down a cliff. He broke his right leg and thought of his young brother.
Just then, a Heaven Racketing Dragon Tiger came rushing over while smelling the blood. Seeing that, Master knew that he was done with his life, but was unresigned. He picked up a mischievous stone and threw it at the Heaven Racketing Dragon Tiger.
"One is a mortal, the other one is a Third Grade Great Demon, the outcome can be imagined. However, what's surprising is that after the mischievous stone smashed through the outer shell, it actually killed that greater demon and pierced through its head through its forehead."
"Master crawled over in disbelief and confirmed that the greater demon was truly dead. Then, from a nearby tree, he picked up that mischievous stone core. Its outer shell was crystal clear, and its flesh was purplish red. Ten thousand divine lights were swallowed within it. This is … the Destiny Stone!"
Wu Shuang was sleeping soundly. His eyebrows were knitted together from time to time. Warm streams of energy flowed around his body like hot spring water, washing over his body. The Heavenly Sound Energy in his body also stirred restlessly.
Above their heads, a river of stars appeared spontaneously, each star was as bright as a day. However, Ceng Yin and Ceng Yin didn't feel it. Only the girl telling a story looked over at them. If she had a mouth, she would definitely smile.
"Interesting brat, in this sealed world, you can still find cultivation battle songs. Unfortunately, this battle song is incomplete and is only the part of the preface. If we gather together in the future, we might even be able to find a place in the Immortal's Cry."
The woman's thoughts only existed for a second before she stopped thinking about it.
As she talked, the story of a miserable youth who had stumbled upon a treasure and changed his fate, finally becoming the legend of a sage, gradually surfaced in front of Ceng Yin and Zhuge Bai.
Unfortunately, this Saint's ending was just too tragic. His beloved died, and he was eternally sealed in the Nine Hells of Cold, and because of the Heaven's Mandate Stone, he was surrounded by over ten thousand experts. In the end, he almost died at the hands of his best friend.
Drops of tears rolled down Zhuge Bai's face. The young girl was crying so hard that it sounded like she was about to cry. As she cried, she couldn't stop herself from stuffing the spirit fruit into her mouth.
Ceng Yin also had a solemn expression and his eyes were filled with dead silence. For a moment, he was actually brought into the role of the Saint realm expert. He was grieving the most for his life and if not for him still breathing, it was as if he was dead.
