Chapter 576: Chapter 561: Over Five Years, Stepping into the Immortal Realm...
At this moment, the attitude of the seniors from Xiaoyao Peak was vastly different from what it was at the beginning.
Initially, the way Cen Yunzi looked at Shen Han.
It seemed as if he wanted to catch Shen Han and give him a beating.
Now, however, he was all smiles and extremely polite to Shen Han.
At this moment, these seniors allowed Shi Yuezhu and me to leave first.
Naturally, Shen Han did not refuse, especially with the help of Senior Gu Simin.
After holding her hand, he wouldn’t casually let go.
At their touch, Shen Han felt a gentle warmth.
His fingers secretly slid, feeling Shi Yuezhu’s jade-like hand...
Subsequently, Shen Han bowed to bid farewell to the seniors.
Including Liu Xilan, to whom Shen Han also nodded slightly.
Previously, when everyone opposed, Shi Yuezhu was very brave.
Now, she seemed a bit more shy.
Watching the two leave, Cen Yunzi and the others looked on with satisfaction.
Now, watching the two of them, they seemed much more well-matched.
Liu Xilan stood behind Cen Yunzi, gazing at the departing figures of Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu.
Her expression seemed slightly lost, with a trace of melancholy.
But Liu Xilan also knew her expression was inappropriate.
She tried to curl her lips into a smile.
But doing so only made her expression more complex and strange...
Perhaps her thoughts were just like her expression.
Walking a bit further away.
Shi Yuezhu was noticeably still somewhat shy, quietly withdrawing her hand.
Shen Han didn’t make things difficult for her and cooperatively let go of her hand.
After all, she was the Peak Master of Xiaoyao Peak, with many disciples in the sect.
Even if she didn’t mind and was willing to reveal their relationship.
In front of the juniors, she indeed should be mindful of her demeanor.
What Shen Han didn’t expect was when the two of them walked back to the secluded path.
Shi Yuezhu quietly extended her hand and held Shen Han’s...
At this, Shen Han’s heart couldn’t help but brighten.
He turned his head to look at her, but found Shi Yuezhu still shy.
She reached her hand over, but her face turned away, looking in another direction.
The two thus gently intertwined their fingers and headed toward Moon Bamboo Peak.
They specifically chose secluded paths with few passersby.
Only when they reached the front of Moon Bamboo Peak did they finally completely let go of each other’s hands.
This was Shen Han’s second visit to Moon Bamboo Peak.
From afar, the lush bamboo forest was visible.
Though it was early summer, the weather was not overly hot.
The peak was high, and there was often a gentle breeze.
With a gentle breeze, the bamboo forest rustled, like ethereal fairy music.
Upon reaching Moon Bamboo Peak, the attendants there were taken aback.
Several women were so frightened they turned pale.
Beside her, Shi Yuezhu continuously explained that Shen Han had been recuperating these past two years.
Only then did the attendants gradually recover their composure.
In these past two years, they had assumed Shen Han had perished.
Seeing Shen Han "come back to life" indeed startled them.
Following behind Shi Yuezhu, the two entered the Inner Courtyard together.
If the attendants had not received orders, they could not enter the Inner Courtyard at will.
Shi Yuezhu’s solitary cultivation generally took place here.
Glancing around at the arrangement of the Inner Courtyard, there was a reassuring feeling within.
It seemed somewhat familiar.
"Does it feel familiar?"
Shi Yuezhu’s face carried a faint smile.
Seeing her smile, Shen Han couldn’t help but want to smile as well, and he nodded with a smile on his face.
"The scenery of this Inner Courtyard is modeled after that small courtyard at Shen Mansion.
It’s just that there isn’t a pond, lacking a certain charm.
Though simple, I quite like it."
Hearing this, Shen Han realized why he felt so familiar.
He sat down in the courtyard.
Shen Han had quite thick skin; ever since entering the Inner Courtyard, he had been staring at Shi Yuezhu.
He kept staring, unwilling to look away for even a moment.
Shi Yuezhu wasn’t the type to blush and feel shy after being looked at a few times.
However, being constantly stared at by Shen Han, she still felt a bit self-conscious.
They hadn’t been sitting long before someone knocked on the Inner Courtyard’s door.
"What’s the matter?"
Shi Yuezhu softly asked.
"Peak Master, just now Peak Master Cen sent someone to bring Young Master Shenhan some tea.
He said it’s Seed Tea from Lingyan Mountain and asked me to brew it and bring it here."
Upon hearing this, Shi Yuezhu waved her hand to open the courtyard door.
The attendant brought the tea to the stone table in the courtyard, and Shi Yuezhu couldn’t help but open it.
The pot of clear tea was indeed Seed Tea from Lingyan Mountain.
After placing the tea down, the attendant promptly bowed and left.
Shi Yuezhu looked at the pot of tea, then glanced at Shen Han.
Just moments ago, she had been smiling, but now her small mouth pouted slightly, seemingly a bit irritated.
"Did something happen...?"
"The Seed Tea from Lingyan Mountain is the most precious tea in my senior brother’s possession.
Even for us, it’s difficult to get a taste.
But Senior Brother Cen actually sent it to you of his own accord.
What did you say to my senior brothers and sisters for them to value you so much...?"
Shi Yuezhu looked up at Shen Han, truly curious.
Besides curiosity, there was a hint of complaint.
What had happened that not even she knew about?
Shi Yuezhu pondered for a long time but couldn’t figure out the reason.
The way she pouted was somewhat adorable.
Amidst it all, Shen Han faintly felt as if he had returned to the times inside the Immortal Extinction Array.
"Give me a shoulder massage, and I’ll tell you, okay?"
Shen Han looked up at Shi Yuezhu.
In his mind, she would snort and throw a little tantrum.
However, the next moment, Shi Yuezhu walked behind him in just a few steps.
Gently massaging his shoulders...
This indeed left Shen Han somewhat flattered.
