Longevity through Upgrading Buildings-Chapter 583 - 264: Days Learning Fox Language with Senior Sister Dong
"The preparations are almost done, and now we’re drafting alchemists from the six sects to go. I still have to follow the sect to Shang Mountain, damn it, we’ll talk when I get back."
"I’ve already had my father submit the list of names for the Alchemy Square, and you’re on it, so rest assured."
Brother Li’s communication talisman is as reassuring as ever.
Ji Yuan responded to each communication talisman.
Just as he was all set, ready to head to Hu Yue Island to learn some fox language from Senior Sister Dong, he noticed two communication talismans lighting up inside the storage bag.
Ran Kui and Phoenix Peach.
Has something happened?
Ji Yuan’s divine sense invaded, and he acquired the information.
Turns out they were both talking about the same thing, which is... Rou Yi has achieved Core Formation.
In Ji Yuan’s mind, a picture immediately appeared: a beautiful female cultivator with long legs, holding a giant sword like a door board, looking extremely valiant.
She is the Great Elder’s eldest disciple under Cloud Abyss Zhenren of the Water Dragon Sect, and considered the top among the younger generation of the Water Dragon Sect.
Achieving Core Formation only now is actually quite late.
Because from what Ji Yuan knows of peers, Ran Kui need not be mentioned, even Lady Mei Ru from Joy Palace has achieved Core Formation.
Rou Yi, as the Great Elder’s eldest disciple, to only achieve Core Formation now... but it’s okay.
Because the Third Elder’s eldest disciple, that Xiao Chengyi hasn’t achieved Core Formation either.
Ji Yuan hasn’t forgotten, he was almost tricked by this person back then.
Ji Yuan doesn’t hold grudges, he just habitually notes down some small matters.
"Isn’t this a wonderful piece of news."
Thinking it over, Ji Yuan decided to send a message to Phoenix Peach.
It’s not that they have a good relationship.
It’s because she’s straightforward and reveals quite a bit of information.
Ran Kui, as the eldest brother... speaks very formally.
"Yeah, you don’t know the prideful look of Master Yunyuan, saying to everyone ’How do you know I have two Golden Cores in my sect?’"
Phoenix Peach laughed heartily, "It’s the same when visiting Master. We all held in our laughter, and it was quite hard."
The matter of Ran Kui’s Core Formation is ultimately kept hidden from the public.
Plus, he’s practiced the Concealing Breath Spell, so outwardly his cultivation still looks like a fake pill.
"Also, the people over at Master Xuanxiao’s place have been behaving lately, avoiding Master Yunyuan. Oh right, Master Yunyuan said in a while they plan to throw a Core Formation celebration, to commemorate properly."
Core Formation is a major event, having a celebration is only right.
Just as Ji Yuan was about to reply, he heard her voice transmission: "But it was rejected by Senior Sister Rou Yi, saying there’s nothing worthy of celebration since the Demon Dao hasn’t been eradicated."
That indeed sounds like something Senior Sister Rou Yi would say... Ji Yuan sighed internally.
Ji Yuan was about to speak, but then Ran Kui’s communication talisman lit up.
"Alright, Little Brother, just chatting with your Third Senior Sister and ignoring me. Now I’m suspecting what she said last time is true, you kid are just someone who favors the ladies!"
...What, are you two together!
Ji Yuan put away the communication talisman, deciding to ignore them both.
Might as well go and talk with Senior Sister Dong about feelings and love.
Then Ji Yuan summoned the Flying Boat, left Wuyou Island, and swiftly traversed the waters, diving straight into Hu Yue Island.
Such speed that unless a Golden Core Cultivator was constantly watching, it would go unnoticed.
’Why does this feel a bit like sneaking around?’
When Ji Yuan reached Dong Qian’s residence at the cliff, he found Senior Sister Dong not waiting in bed this time.
Instead, she was wearing a long black dress, sitting by the stone table making tea.
"Junior Brother!"
Seeing Ji Yuan come, Dong Qian couldn’t suppress the joy in her heart, and hurriedly stood up.
"Senior Sister."
Ji Yuan stepped forward, seeing Dong Qian with open arms, they gently embraced.
"It’s been a long time."
"Yeah, it’s been two years, three months, and eight days," Dong Qian said softly.
...Senior Sister, you remember so precisely!
Ji Yuan sat down beside her, "Wasn’t it for cultivation, plus I had assignments from the sect, so I had to go out."
"Just teasing, I wouldn’t blame you."
Dong Qian came to Ji Yuan’s side and gracefully poured tea.
But Ji Yuan’s side glance couldn’t help but notice — under Senior Sister’s wide black dress, it seemed she wasn’t wearing anything else.
"Why did Senior Sister go out a while ago?"
Ji Yuan, trying to change the subject, brought up another topic.
Unexpectedly, upon asking, Dong Qian hesitated slightly, even her expression became somewhat awkward, and finally, she took a deep breath.
"This matter, I’ll talk about it with you when I’ve thought it through, okay?"
"Sure, what’s wrong with that."
Ji Yuan smiled, naturally respecting Dong Qian’s wishes.
Everyone has secrets, just like Dong Qian won’t probe too deeply into his secrets.
Dong Qian visibly relaxed upon hearing Ji Yuan’s response.
But what Ji Yuan didn’t expect was, after pouring the tea, Dong Qian directly sat on his lap.
With beauty in his arms, Ji Yuan had no interest in tea.
Then the conversation went like this.
"Senior Sister, can you teach me the fox language?"
"Fox—Fox language, how—how to teach?"
"Just teach me now."
"But—But I don’t know either, I communicate with Six-tailed using divine sense."
"There... ooo ooo."
"Senior Sister said she didn’t know fox language, just always fooling me."
"..."
Ten days later.
Ji Yuan was chased out of Hu Yue Island by Dong Qian, no matter what he said, she wouldn’t let him in again.
