Chapter 859: Chapter 859
Wang Zixuan snorted coldly: "Of course it's not to chat with you. Does my master need something from you?"
Lin Chen chuckled, "You can guess or not, but of course, she wants me to stay away from you."
"So, that's it. Lin Chen, we'd better keep our distance. You don't know my master's temper; once she's set on something, not even eight oxen can pull her back," Wang Zixuan said worriedly.
"Are you afraid she might be rude to me? Sorry, but when I set my mind on something, similarly not even eight oxen can pull me back," Lin Chen laughed.
"You rascal." Wang Zixuan punched Lin Chen hard.
Lin Chen looked at Wang Zixuan teasingly: "It would be such a pity not to cherish such a perfect moment. Why don't we..."
"Why don't we what? You big pervert," Wang Zixuan retorted angrily.
Lin Chen smiled faintly: "Since you've already labeled me as a big pervert, then naturally, I shall not hold back."
Saying this, Lin Chen embraced Wang Zixuan in his arms.
Before Wang Zixuan could finish speaking, Lin Chen's lips were already pressed against hers.
At first, Wang Zixuan tried to resist, but gradually she stopped and even started to reciprocate Lin Chen's actions a little.
Just as the two were deeply engrossed in each other, suddenly a coughing sound rang out.
The passion that had just kindled in Lin Chen was instantly extinguished by the cough.
Only then did Lin Chen realize an elderly man, leaning on a walking stick, was slowly approaching them from not far away.
Though the elder seemed to walk with difficulty, his speed was actually quite fast.
Seeing the elder, Wang Zixuan blushed, "Grandpa Tu, it's you!"
The elder chuckled, "Yes, it's me. You young people, if you want to do that sort of thing, find a different place. You're disturbing this old man's sleep here."
Wang Zixuan's cheeks flushed deeper, "Grandpa Tu, what are you talking about? We didn't do anything!"
Grandpa Tu smiled lightly, "You little rascal, do you really think I'm a fool? I've been around, I know exactly what you were up to."
Upon hearing Grandpa Tu's words, both Lin Chen and Wang Zixuan blushed.
"You lucky young man, to have caught our Zixuan. There will be plenty of chances for that sort of thing later, but you must promise me to treat Zixuan well, otherwise, I won't let you off," Grandpa Tu said.
Lin Chen nodded, realizing that when Grandpa Tu appeared, he hadn't sensed him at all, which could only mean one thing: Grandpa Tu's power was mighty, far surpassing the Yunhai realm's cultivation.
"Don't worry, Grandpa Tu, I will treat Zixuan well," Lin Chen smiled.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from not far away, and Grandpa Tu said with a light smile, "Actually, I wanted to help you two out, but Mu Yun that girl, she's worried about you two. Look, she's coming now. Hide behind the tree, I'll go send her away."
Hearing Grandpa Tu's words, Lin Chen and Wang Zixuan both slightly tensed, realizing that if Mu Yun, the Celestial Maiden, had caught them together, the consequences would have been severe.
The two hid behind a large tree, and soon the conversation between Grandpa Tu and the Celestial Maiden Mu Yun could be heard.
"Elder Tu, why have you left seclusion?" asked Celestial Maiden Mu Yun.
Grandpa Tu replied with a light smile, "I felt a bit stuffy, just needed some fresh air. You miss this old man, don't you?"
Celestial Maiden Mu Yun shook her head, "I was just passing by, nothing in particular."
A-Tu gave a faint smile: "You girl, thinking I really know nothing? You must be worried about that young lady Zixuan."
Fairy Mu Yun nodded: "Is Zixuan not here?"
A-Tu replied: "No, if she is within the range of my Divine Sense, I would definitely be able to sense her."
"Oh, I see. Then Elder A-Tu, you should rest now. I will go back as well." Fairy Mu Yun said.
"Wait a moment." Suddenly, A-Tu called back Fairy Mu Yun.
"Is there anything else, Elder A-Tu?" Fairy Mu Yun asked, puzzled.
A-Tu smiled faintly: "Mu Yun, I have watched you grow up since you were little. I remember when you were young, you fell for that boy from Kunlun."
"Elder A-Tu, that's all in the past. Please don't bring it up again," said Mu Yun, her cheeks blushing slightly.
A-Tu chuckled: "Of course I must mention it. The rules of the Jade Maiden Peak have destroyed the happiness of many young girls. You were , and so was your master. Mu Yun, it's not the same era anymore. Rules are not set in stone. Can you really bear to see Zixuan walk down the same old path you and your master did?"
Hearing Elder A-Tu's words, Fairy Mu Yun's expression changed slightly, but she remained silent.
"You don't need to rush an answer. Go back and think it over," A-Tu said with a large laugh.
After Fairy Mu Yun left, A-Tu then spoke, "You two little ones, come out!"
After emerging, Lin Chen greeted Grandpa A-Tu with a deep bow: "Thank you, Grandpa, for lecturing that old-fashioned Fairy Mu Yun."
Grandpa A-Tu sighed: "Actually, Mu Yun is a good girl. She once had a grand love, but unfortunately, that man betrayed her."
"Grandpa, were you also involved with Fairy Mu Yun's master?" Lin Chen joked.
"You little rascal, is that how you speak to an elder? What do you mean involved? Ours was a pure love!" Grandpa A-Tu replied discontentedly.
It turned out that Grandpa A-Tu was the Sect Leader of Kunlun, who had given up his position because of his love for the sacred maiden Mu Qing of Jade Maiden Peak and left Kunlun.
Unfortunately, later on, due to the obstruction from Mu Qing's master, they were trapped by love and never managed to be together.
Although Mu Qing passed away later, Grandpa A-Tu had kept his promise and continued guarding Jade Maiden Peak.
Hearing the story of Grandpa A-Tu and Fairy Mu Qing, Lin Chen was full of sighs.
Grandpa A-Tu sighed: "It's a pity that back then I didn't have the courage you have, otherwise I wouldn't have ended up ."
Lin Chen, blushing, said: "Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa."
Grandpa A-Tu nodded: "Girl, you go back first. I have something to talk about with this little fellow."
Wang Zixuan nodded obediently and left the valley alone.
Seeing Wang Zixuan leave, Grandpa A-Tu then said: "Little fellow, you must have quite a few women around you."
Lin Chen was slightly stunned but did not intend to lie and nodded: "Grandpa A-Tu, I indeed have several girls around me."
"Hmm, it's quite normal for a strong man to have multiple wives and concubines, but you must promise me, you cannot let Zixuan down," Grandpa A-Tu said seriously.
"Don't worry, I will take good care of Zixuan," Lin Chen promised earnestly.
"Then I'll tell you a secret, you have to keep it confidential for me!" Grandpa A-Tu said mystically.
"What secret?" Lin Chen asked, puzzled.
