Chapter 231: Chapter 120: The Immortal from Mt. Jinhua, A Semi-Saint Position! _4
Vroom vroom vroom~!
In the next instant, the speed of the Flying Boat soared once again, disappearing over the horizon like a shooting star in the blink of an eye.
The speed was comparable to that of a level-seven divine demon.
...A flower blooms on both ends, each showing one branch...
As Zhang Xuandao and others rushed to the Tianshui Sect, Chen Chang’an and Mao Ruxue were also on their way.
However, unlike the hurried rush of Zhang Xuan Dao and his group, the journey of these two was much more leisurely.
The speed of their Flying Boat was not exactly slow, but it wasn’t particularly fast either.
Finally, after approximately two days of travel, they arrived at a new location.
Here, a towering mountain peak reached into the clouds.
At the peak of the mountain, clouds and mist swirled around, with a row of white egrets flying in unison.
The whole scene was like a beautiful painting, full of celestial aura.
At this time, Chen Chang’an and Mao Ruxue stopped at the foot of this mountain.
"Brother, do you think they’ll let us in?"
Arriving here and looking at the towering mountain peak in front of them, Mao Ruxue asked Chen Chang’an.
"Yes, they will." Chen Chang’an replied confidently.
Afterwards, he led Mao Ruxue to the foot of the mountain.
As they arrived, a gate formed of white mist suddenly appeared.
Then, in the next moment, two little Daoist disciples emerged from the gate.
Coming to Chen Chang’an, they greeted with one hand, "This is Mt. Jinhua, may we know the purpose of your visit?"
Upon hearing the Daoist disciples, Chen Chang’an reciprocated the greeting and said:
"To make it clear to the little master, we have come from Tianshui Sect."
"We are here to pay respects to the Immortal Mother of Jinhua."
"Do you two esteemed visitors have an invitation from the Immortal Mother?" The little disciple turned much friendlier upon hearing Chen Chang’an’s words, and then he asked.
"No." Chen Chang’an shook his head.
He then said,
"Could you do us a favor and inform the Immortal Mother that Chen Chang’an, a disciple of Tianshui Sect, has come to visit."
"I think the Immortal Mother will see us."
"Okay, please wait a moment."
After Chen Chang’an spoke, the two disciples immediately bowed to them.
Then, one of them stayed to attend to them while the other returned to the gate, presumably to deliver the message.
"Hello, can I ask, do people often visit the Immortal Mother here?"
After the other Daoist disciple left, to pass the time, Chen Chang’an asked the remaining one.
"In reply to your question, apart from the elders who knew the Immortal Mother well, we really don’t have many other visitors," the little Dao disciple replied.
Upon hearing this, Chen Chang’an nodded, "Oh, thank you, young master."
Afterwards, he decided not to ask any more questions and patiently waited on the spot.
Vroom vroom vroom~!
A short while later, they heard a buzzing sound.
The white gate flung open once again, and the Daoist disciple who had gone to relay the message came out.
As soon as the disciple appeared, she saluted Chen Chang’an and Mao Ruxue with one hand and respectfully said:
"Esteemed guests, the Immortal Mother invites you in."
"Okay, thank you, young master."
Chen Chang’an nodded, then called Mao Ruxue and followed the behind the disciple.
"Moo moo~!"
Next to Chen Chang’an, Little Duo, the little purple elephant, let out excited sounds, and then followed with ears flapping.
A few moments later, the three of them arrived at the top of the mountain peak.
There, a Daoist temple stood erect.
In front of the temple door, three golden characters, gentle yet profound with Daoist meanings, were written.
[Jinhua Temple]
After leading Chen Chang’an and Mao Ruxue here, the small Daoist disciple saluted again and said:
"Esteemed guests, I can only bring you here."
"The Immortal Mother is waiting for you inside, you may enter directly."
Chen Chang’an quickly thanked with a bow, saying:
"Okay, thank you, young master."
After sending off the Daoist disciple, Chen Chang’an led Mao Ruxue into the temple.
Actually, calling it a temple might be an overstatement, for once they walked through the gate, all they saw was a small courtyard.
At this moment, an old woman was sitting in the courtyard, waiting for their arrival.
"Disciple Chen Chang’an, paying respects to the Immortal Mother." Upon seeing the old woman, Chen Chang’an quickly bowed and said.
The Immortal Mother of Jinhua, a hermit immortal residing in the Jinhua mountain area.
At the same time, she was the lover of the previous Mountain Lord of Daoist Gate, Chen Chang’an’s master, Yang Han.
Although they were not married, they had long been regarded as such.
When he was in the mountain in the past, this old woman appeared quite a few times in Chen Chang’an’s memory.
However, since old man Yang Han passed away, the Immortal Mother of Jinhua had been living in seclusion here, rarely meddling in worldly affairs.
The purpose of Chen Chang’an’s visit was not only to introduce his junior sister apprentice Mao Ruxue to the old woman, but also to make a final closure for his master, Yang Han.
The other purpose was to visit the old woman after all these years.
