Chapter 1141 Meeting the Elders
Chapter 1141 Meeting the Elders
Ahead lies the undulating Twin Peaks, two rounded green peaks standing tall, a picturesque scene with a secluded canyon between them.
Zi Xuan led Lu Hao into the canyon. The canyon was filled with pink flowers on both sides, and a gentle breeze carried a faint fragrance of flowers.
The two walked for a while and finally stopped in a clearing deep in the valley.
Zi Xuan took a crystal hairpin from her hair and offered it forward. Instantly, translucent energy petals appeared on the hairpin. Once all the petals were in full bloom, a barrier appeared below, revealing a village that looked like a paradise.
Zixuan made a hand seal, and a narrow gap appeared in the barrier. The two of them went inside.
"This passage is so narrow!" Lu Hao exclaimed in surprise as he felt the pressure emanating from the barrier.
"We'll be there soon, so don't say anything out of line. My mother is always very serious," Zixuan couldn't help but warn in advance.
"Don't worry, once we get there, I won't say a word I should say, but I'll say everything I shouldn't say." Lu Hao said with a smile.
"You're being cheeky again!" Zi Xuan rolled her eyes at him, then intertwined her fingers with Lu Hao's and slowly walked inside.
"By the way, what gift are you preparing?" Zixuan asked hurriedly, afraid that Lu Hao would cause trouble again.
"You can rest assured that I'll handle things well. Everything I bought is exactly what Mom needs most urgently. She'll be overjoyed when she receives it," Lu Hao said with a loud thud on his chest.
"Is it going to be a revealing, sexy dress?" Zi Xuan couldn't help but whisper. She knew Lu Hao loved doing these kinds of things, and she was sure she'd be embarrassed.
“Your mother is my mother, how could I give my own mother a sexy dress!” Lu Hao shook his head with a wry smile.
"Then take it out and let people see it." Zixuan stretched out her hand, wanting to see it beforehand to put her mind at ease.
"Time is running out, let's hurry back. Besides, I always do things the right way, trust me this time." Lu Hao waved his hand with a smile.
"If you had known better, you wouldn't have been chased by your master's wife all the way here!" Zixuan muttered softly.
The two passed through the barrier, and ahead, many courtyards were built against the mountain, with about a dozen households. The houses were all built of bluestone, and occasionally the sounds of chickens and dogs could be heard.
"A year ago, I moved my mother and some of my clansmen here," Zixuan said slowly, gazing at the wisps of smoke rising from the chimneys ahead, a hint of melancholy in her expression.
After the Thunder God Temple destroyed the Cloud Heaven Sect, it became ruthless and relentlessly hunted down all the Cloud Heaven Sect members who had escaped its clutches. Even the families of these disciples were not spared. Fortunately, Zi Xuan's mother had already heard the news and evacuated in time, thus escaping the calamity.
"Don't worry, I believe this patience won't last long. Once I've dealt with the Thunder God Temple, you can move back to the Chu Kingdom openly and legitimately," Lu Hao assured her, holding her hand tightly.
The two walked along the cobblestone path in the village, occasionally encountering some simple and honest villagers.
"Miss, you're finally back! Madam has been talking about you these past few days. She'll be overjoyed to see you again." An elderly woman with a hunched back said with delight as she bumped into Zixuan.
"Grandma, it's been a while. How are you doing?" Zixuan quickly helped the old woman up, her tone full of concern, and a genuine smile appeared on her face.
"Grandma is old, what's good or bad about that? By the way, this must be the young lady's Daoist partner, right? He is indeed handsome and has the bearing of a dragon and phoenix." The old woman looked Lu Hao up and down and couldn't help but praise him.
"I didn't expect you to be such a discerning person. You saw through my disguise!" Lu Hao couldn't help but burst into laughter when he heard someone praise him.
"You, such a grown-up, still have the same personality as when you were a teenager." Zi Xuan couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle when she saw Lu Hao looking so proud after being praised, as memories of the past flooded her mind.
When Lu Hao, as a teenager, first came into close contact with him, he kept blowing on his bangs, displaying his irresistible charm.
"This son-in-law is... quite interesting!" The old man was just casually complimenting him, but Lu Hao not only didn't flatter him, he readily accepted it.
Along the way, people kept praising his handsome appearance. When Lu Hao was happy, he kept throwing out all sorts of pills and spirit stones. He loved being praised, and his smile would never stop.
"If you ask me, the people in your village have better judgment than outsiders!" Lu Hao said with a smile.
"They were just saying it casually, and you actually took it seriously." Zixuan shook her head with a light laugh, her eyes filled with happiness.
The two walked on and came to a unique courtyard, which was filled with green bamboo. A gentle breeze blew and the bamboo leaves rustled.
"Creak!" Zi Xuan gently pushed open the courtyard gate with her jade-like hand, and the gate creaked open as it was pushed open, and the wind chimes on the gate rang instantly.
"Who is it?" A gentle and sweet voice came from inside the house, and just hearing it made one's heart flutter.
"She is absolutely a stunning beauty!" Just hearing her voice made Lu Hao's heart flutter. This was the first time in years that he had felt this way, and his anticipation grew even stronger.
"Creak!" The wooden door was slowly pushed open, and a graceful figure, accompanied by a faint scent of gardenias, stood leisurely in the sunlight.
She was a woman whose beauty could eclipse the heavens and earth. Her eyes were like a galaxy, and the way they moved seemed to quicken one's heartbeat. Her delicate nose was like a finely carved jade peak, and her pink lips were like peach blossoms in March. Her face was so beautiful that it could topple kingdoms, as if she were the most perfect masterpiece of heaven.
She exudes a mature and alluring charm, yet she is incredibly pure-looking, breathtakingly beautiful, and utterly captivating.
It was a beauty that was both extremely contradictory and perfectly harmonious, a perfect blend of purity and allure, like a fairy descending from the moonlit clouds, or a stunning beauty fallen to earth, captivating anyone who looked at her and making them fall into a trance.
Zi Xuan possessed an untainted purity, while the woman before him exuded a purity tinged with sexiness and allure—a woman with a fatal attraction for men.
Just then, in front of the two women, Lu Hao uttered a shocking statement.
"Holy crap, your mom is so beautiful!" Lu Hao's eyes widened like saucers, and his dumbfounded expression was enough to prove just how stunning the woman in front of him was.
Upon hearing this, the two women froze instantly, staring at Lu Hao with disbelief in their eyes, as if to say, "Are you out of your mind?"
Zixuan's mother blushed deeply, even her long, swan-like neck turned red, and she glared fiercely at Lu Hao with her beautiful eyes.
"I never imagined your mother could be so beautiful even when she's angry!" Lu Hao added, completely oblivious to the two women's displeasure.
This beautiful woman's appearance had clearly caused a strong resonance in Lu Hao's Supreme Bone...
