Chapter 557: Waiting For Someone To Come Back

Kunlun.

The Ninth Summit.

The courtyard had been repaired, and the peach forest had been patched back to its original state.

However, the array formation had always been in a dilapidated state and could only be replaced by a shallow array formation.

Ao Longyu stood at the edge of the flowering shrubs, waiting for news.

Her master and the others were heading to the Heaven Realm today. Perhaps there would be some news.

Her expression was calm, but she subconsciously walked, feeling uneasy.

In the evening.

Zhu Qing came to the Ninth Summit. She looked at Ao Longyu who had anticipation in her eyes and told her what she had seen in the Heaven Realm today.

The disorderly power of the old world had been completely destroyed, but

Jiang Lan never returned.

There was no longer anyone in the place beyond the heavens.

Ao Longyu’s eyes widened as mist covered them. Then, she smiled.

She firmly believed that her Junior Brother had yet to return.

Zhu Qing was a little worried about Ao Longyu. She stayed in the courtyard for two days before leaving helplessly.

Besides Ao Longyu, there was no one else on the Ninth Summit.

Mo Zhengdong did not return to the Ninth Summit either. No one knew his whereabouts.

Ao Longyu stayed in the courtyard. She cleaned up the Ninth Summit and planted flowers.

On the fifth day after her master left, Ao Longyu squatted by the flowers in the courtyard, pulling weeds.

Her eyes suddenly watered again.

“We agreed that we would compete again. We agreed that I would win this time.”

She muttered to herself and continued to clean up the flowers.

She had a request that had been buried in her heart for a very, very long time. She wanted to win her Junior Brother and then make this request. A request that was not too much.

She wanted her Junior Brother to be by her side forever.

But.

She never had the chance to make this request.

Spring passed, autumn came, and the seasons changed.

Ao Longyu began to read books regarding array formations. She wanted the Ninth Summit to return to its original state. When she was done, her Junior Brother should have returned.

She built the array formations bit by bit and took care of the Ninth Summit.

As time passed, the stars moved.

A hundred years passed in a flash.

Ao Longyu had stayed on the Ninth Summit for two hundred years.

She had never left. She was only building array formations and removing weeds to tend to the Ninth Summit every year.

She did not speak to others or leave the mountain to broaden her horizons. She only lived in her own world.

After a hundred years, she had become the Jiang Lan of the past.

She would watch the sunrise in the morning and the sunset in the evening.

She read books everyday and read the stars at night.

However, every night and every moming, she would look out of the peach forest.

She was waiting for someone.

Someone who would definitely return.

In the same year.

Mo Zhengdong arrived at the Kunlun Void and waited quietly at the exit.

It was as if he knew that someone would walk out of Kunlun today.

Noon.

A beautiful figure slowly walked out of the Kunlun Void.

It was a young girl wearing a cream-colored immortal dress with a faint smile.

She had a graceful figure, bright eyes and white teeth.

She had a face that could captivate the moon and flowers.

“Senior Brother, long time no see.” Under the sunlight, Miao Yue smiled like a flower.

“Junior Sister, I trust you’ve been well.” Mo Zhengdong heaved a sigh of relief.

A moment later, the two of them walked towards Kunlun side by side.

“What about Jiang Lan?” Miao Yue asked.

“Not yet,” Mo Zhengdong replied.

“see.” Miao Yue’s voice carried a faint smile.

“Senior Brother, do you still remember the agreement?”

“You’re only a Golden Core cultivator now. It’s more important to recover your cultivation first,” Mo Zhengdong did not answer directly.

“Senior Brother wants to go back on the promise?”

“No.”

“Who is the Summit Leader of the Fifth Summit now?”

“There is no summit leader. The positions of the Second, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh summit leader are all empty.”

“Senior Brother, will you be used to having another person sleeping by your side in the future?”

“Thavent slept in a thousand years.”

They walked all the way to Kunlun and chatted along the way. They chatted about boring topics and useless things.

The following year.

‘When the youth was watering the vegetative egg and Udumbara Flower outside the inn, he saw a woman, She had a green face and sharp teeth, and her bones were sturdy. There were some injuries on her body, making her look a bit sorry.

It had to be someone from Ba Country.

The youth at this moment was no longer a youth who had yet to grow up. He looked to be 16 or 17 years old, and his eyes lacked some naivety.

“Are you alright?” The youth went over and asked.

“Little Boss, you’re too slow. You made an appointment yesterday but it’s not ready today.”

Lu Jian leaned on the counter and complained. Then, he looked at the Pixiu who was cleaning the table and said.

“The Pixiu has suffered so much following you that it has lost a lot of weight.”

Upon hearing this, the Pixiu stared at Lu Jian with tears in its eyes.

Finally, someone spoke up for it. The new boss was brutal.

“It’s all for the best.” The youth handed the good wine to Lu Jian.

He tasted it on the spot and nodded slightly. “Not bad, it’s very close. Keep working hard.”

Then, Lu Jian bade farewell and left.

The youth’s brew was naturally not as good as his grandfather’s. He was constantly seeking to improve.

Lu Jian often drank it, so he could taste how good it was.

“Sigh, I feel like I can’t handle being alone in the inn.” The youth sighed as he placed the good wine on the table.

“Then why didn’t you hire someone?” A voice suddenly sounded.

Her voice was filled with mockery.

The youth tumed around and saw the Eighth Prince with a look of disdain.

“Stupid dragon, you’re not dead?” The youth cried out in surprise.

“How can die if you’re not dead?” The Eighth Prince said angrily. Then, he looked around.

“Is your girl from the Heavenly Feather Phoenix Race dead?”

“You’re the one who’s dead. How can Hong Ya die if I’m not dead?” The youth scolded back immediately.

“Useless. Why don’t you learn from my Brother-in-law…” The Eighth Prince sighed.” I wonder when my Brother-in-law will retum. I just went to see my sister and realized that she was smiling unhappily.”

“Eh, why are the vegetative egg and the Udumbara Flower with you?” The Eighth Prince exclaimed when he saw the flower pot at the counter.

The youth, who was originally a little sad, rolled his eyes. “Why can’t they be with me? They fell at the entrance of the inn, so I raised them.

Thave asked asked Big Sister and she said that she would put them here first.

Speaking of which, you’re already here. Be my employee.”

“refuse. I want to start from scratch and be the boss myself,” the Eighth Prince said arrogantly.

The Dragon Race no longer needed him. Now, he had decided to settle down in Kunlun.

Who in the race would refuse?

The Dao Integration cultivator was the previous Sect Master of Kunlun.

The Heavenly Venerable above the current Heavenly Dao was a disciple of Kunlun. Countless experts of the various races had to join Kunlum after leaving Kunlun Void.

‘The current Kunlun was truly the number one in the Grand Desolate World.

All of them wished they could come here. His background was so deep. His sister was the Kunlun Goddess, and his Brother-in-law was Heavenly Venerable Lun Ling.

He was unstoppable across the entire Grand Desolate World.

He was just waiting for his Brother-in-law to return.

It was just that the situation was… not optimistic.

Dong dong!

suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

The youth, who wanted to pour cold water on the Eighth Prince, turned around. He was stunned on the spot. Then, he sighed.

“Stupid dragon, I’m finished. I’ve been hallucinating again recently.

Tam now seeing Hong Ya.”

There was a young girl standing at the door. Her expression was calm and her eyes moved slightly, as if she was embarrassed.

Eighth Prince: “…”

He had also seen it, so this was not an illusion.

“Is the inn hiring?” Hong Ya tried to ask.

“She’s asking you if you want to hire anyone. Are you stupid?” The Eighth Prince kicked the youth.

“Stupid dragon, you dare to kick… Huh?” The youth was stunned for a moment before looking at Hong Ya.

For a moment, he realized that he was not hallucinating.

“Are you not hiring?” Hong Ya asked again.

“L.. Lam,” the youth stammered.

“He is recruiting but not an employee.” The Eighth Prince looked at Hong Ya and kicked the youth.

“Ah?” The youth came to a realization and looked at Hong Ya.

“I’s a form of greeting. It’s a form of greeting. However, after Grandpa returns, I won’t be the boss anymore, so you might only be a temporary lady boss.

I mean that we will be demoted together when the time comes.”

The youth lowered his head and realized that he was incoherent.

“am L… really qualified?” Hong Ya asked after a moment of silence.

“Ah?” The young man was surprised. Then, he kept nodding, “Qualified. Very qualified.”

“Doing this will make me arrogant.” Hong Ya took a step forward and said, “I will try my best to become qualified in the future, but I might be different from what you think. My personality and emotions are all the same because I’m not human. I’m from the Heavenly Feather Phoenix Race. I don’t have

that many emotions.

So… can I apply to be the lady boss?”

For a moment, the youth felt that he was seeing the Hong Ya in his hallucination back then. He wondered if he was hallucinating again.

At this moment, someone pushed his back and he leaned forward, hugging Hong Ya subconsciously.

It was considered a response.

“Idiot, you still have to rely on me in the end,” the Eighth Prince muttered.

If he had listened to him from the start, he would have done so long ago. Why did he wait until now?

The youth was still a youth and had not improved at all.

At this moment, someone entered the inn.

“Big Brother, why are you grabbing Big Sister?” Yan Xiyun’s voice suddenly sounded.

Bang!

‘The Eighth Prince struck out with his halberd, and Yan Xiyun instantly disappeared.

This girl did not understand the atmosphere at all.

The youth let go of Hong Ya in fear.

Hong Ya changed the topic. “Xiyun just came out of the Kunlun Void. She can’t withstand such a hard strike, right?”

Eighth Prince: “…”
