Chapter 1585: Chapter 1585: Dragon Slayer’s Past
Although Fengling had only been with Lin Shanshan for two days, she was utterly impressed by this older sister.
While buying furniture, she even suggested Lin Shanshan haggle with the furniture dealer.
But Lin Shanshan said someone else would pay the bill.
Fengling finally saw it; indeed, there were people to pay, quite a few of them, actually.
Hua Qianmo and Lin Yingying couldn’t stand the disciples’ antics after discussing together.
She organized everything, dividing the hall into areas for work and living spaces.
Inner sect disciples have their courtyard, while outer sect disciples live in a large courtyard.
When we reach the place, we can directly move the Crystal Palace onto the island, without needing to build extra houses.
Long Fei took on the role of a hands-off manager; while others bustled around on their journeys, he pulled Old Lvv aside to drink and inquire about the matters of the Butcher of Dragons Abbess.
Not talking about it, but when mentioned, it startled even Old Lvv.
Long Fei asked him, “Is this Butcher of Dragons Abbess really that formidable?”
Old Lvv exclaimed, “More than formidable, she was once a reigning figure in the Cultivation World. A lone woman, striking terror into numerous male cultivators.”
He took a sip of wine and narrated the Butcher of Dragons Abbess’s story in detail to Long Fei.
Since it was hearsay, it inevitably had some embellishments.
This Butcher of Dragons Abbess, real name Shen Xiu,
was once the direct disciple of the Ancestor of Mount Shu, but because her killing intent was too strong, she was expelled from the sect by him.
Her magical weapon was a dragon-slaying sword, and she became famous by slaying thirty-two Azure Dragons in the North Sea, later being accepted as a disciple by Nun Xinru on the North Sea Island.
Nun Xinru, real name Xin Ruyu, was also a figure of power during the flourishment of all sects and emergence of martial experts.
The Ancestor of Mount Shu reportedly became an Immortal, ferrying off two batches of Mount Shu disciples, after which he broke contact with the Mount Shu of this world.
Butcher of Dragons Abbess, being cast out, missed this opportunity. Dıscover more novels at 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹⟡𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⟡𝙣𝙚𝙩
If she were still alive, she would be a figure from over ten thousand years ago.
Long Fei furrowed his brows, not expecting this Butcher of Dragons Abbess to be so renowned.
He only heard Su Yiyi and Wang Xiaoyun mention her in passing, wondering if perhaps this Butcher of Dragons Abbess’s title was being used by a disciple.
Otherwise, a person who lived over ten thousand years, could they really still exist in this world?
That’s simply impossible!
People have lifespans, and cultivators do too, albeit longer-lived than ordinary people.
But without unique opportunities to extend life, even consuming pills and spirit fruits daily can’t sustain life in this world for tens of thousands of years.
Long Fei’s mind was momentarily in a daze, convinced that this world was far from simple.
He had already witnessed this once when attacking Mount Wudang.
Originally thinking they could completely eradicate the sect, who knew at the critical moment, an old guy hidden in the shadows would suddenly make a move.
Are they waiting for an opportunity to be reborn?
Long Fei was puzzled, and unable to figure it out, he decided to not think about it, taking a hearty drink of wine instead.
After a while, a familiar figure approached, giving Long Fei a cheerful smile.
It was Liuu Ruyan, who Lin Yingying had brought along this time.
This girl had high potential and had now even broken through to the Late Enlightenment Realm, showing great promise of catching up.
She hadn’t formally studied with Long Fei; just from some casual teachings, she achieved such fortune.
Thinking of Fat Wang and others, Long Fei felt tempted to scold them again.
He stood up and asked Liuu Ruyan, “What’s up?”
Liuu Ruyan replied somewhat awkwardly, “Nothing, Director Lin, oh, no, I mean, Mistress, she wants you to come over.”
Long Fei smiled, and as Liuu Ruyan was about to leave, he suddenly called out to her, taking out the Yin-Yang Tai Chi Sword of the Wudang Sect Leader from his storage ring and handing it to her.
Liuu Ruyan took the sword, slightly dazed.
Long Fei said to her, “I never thought you’d leave worldly affairs to come here; hold on to this sword. Compared to their magical weapons, it’s not inferior.”
Liuu Ruyan blushed, surprised that Long Fei was still thinking of her and considering her.
Among other female cultivators, she indeed felt quite inferior.
She joined late and her cultivation level was low.
Though she worked hard, she couldn’t catch up with other sisters.
Women like to compare and form cliques, constantly gossiping about others throughout the day.
With this sword, Liuu Ruyan could better integrate with them.
Long Fei accompanied her, asking, “Have you arranged everything for your parents?”
Liuu Ruyan nodded, “Yes, I have. They know I’m with you, so they’re at ease. I used the money Director Lin gave me to buy them a villa, so they’re taken care of for life.”
Long Fei chuckled, “Are you continuing to work as Yingying’s secretary?”
Liuu Ruyan nodded, “For now, yes! Mistress needs someone to take care of things, and my cultivation level is too low to handle other tasks. It’s good to have something to do.”
Seeing she thought clearly, Long Fei felt relieved.
Otherwise, if no other sisters needed to serve anyone and only she had to, Long Fei would have been worried she’d feel uncomfortable.
Lin Yingying chose a secluded place for her and Long Fei to live, nestled within a bamboo grove.
Presumably, the former owner of the abode lived here, a solitary courtyard surrounded by bamboo on all sides.
In the courtyard, there’s even a hot spring pond emanating spiritual energy.
Within the abode, a river flows meanderingly, with a lake to the north, filled with water entirely composed of spiritual energy.
In the disciples’ living areas, there are also many springs available for bathing.
After bringing Long Fei over, Liuu Ruyan respectfully withdrew.
She had adapted completely to this environment, with manners distinctively different from the worldly realm.
Lin Yingying and the Little Kirin were tidying up the house; the furniture inside was surprisingly all from her and Long Fei’s place in the Rose Garden Villa.
She brought everything along when she left.
Now, setting it up in the living room, it made Long Fei feel like he was back in his worldly home, even the wedding photo on the wall was at the same spot.
As soon as she entered, Lin Yingying mumbled at him, “You’re so carefree, still in the mood to find someone to drink with, and not even lending us a hand.”
Long Fei laughed, “With so many disciples outside, you could just have called some over to help, couldn’t you?”
He went over to help the Little Kirin hold a wedding photo while Lin Yingying checked the angle.
She wiped a bead of sweat from her forehead, supporting her chin as she pondered, “Wasn’t this wedding photo originally hanging here?”
Long Fei confirmed, nodding.
Finally satisfied, Lin Yingying said, “Then hang it up! Others don’t know our home’s layout, so having them help would be in vain.”
Long Fei fixed it to the wall, assisting Lin Yingying in arranging the furniture piece by piece.
Finally, seeing that she even brought the TV, he couldn’t help but laugh, “Why bring this? There’s no connection here; whose TV are you watching?”
Lin Yingying urged him to hang the TV quickly, then stood with hands on her hips, admiring her handiwork, “Alright, now it feels like home! Once we reach the place, get someone to paint the walls inside and install a chandelier. The former owner really had no taste; these walls are like rocks, as if living in a cave to those who don’t know.”
Long Fei chuckled, thinking to himself that people come for cultivation, unlike her who came for daily living.
