It was just dawn.
Huo Ling'er had already habitually sat cross-legged in front of the deserted Treasure Hall.
She also knew that Yu Yuan had been very busy recently, working on some bizarre things with Wen Zhong, often disappearing for days on end.
"Stinky junior brother, another night not returning."
Huo Ling'er complained softly as per usual, then faced the ever-flowing Huai River, quietly comprehending the grand Dao of Heaven and Earth.
This was her daily morning routine.
She followed the orthodox path of Immortal cultivation.
After attaining the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit, circulating her Mana meticulously became less crucial, instead, she began to focus on understanding the grand Dao of Heaven and Earth.
High-level Immortal Gods, as long as they could grasp the pattern of the Heavenly Dao's operation and comprehend the laws, could leverage the power of Heaven and Earth, unleashing might far beyond their own cultivation.
Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a lithe woman slowly walking along the bank of the Huai River.
"Hmm?"
Huo Ling'er looked intently only to see the woman had rosy lips and white teeth, her eyes hopeful, wearing a short skirt woven from fragrant herbs, revealing long, straight, and fair legs; her waist was adorned with flowering vines that climbed up covering her voluptuous figure, just like a sacred yet seductive lotus emerging from water.
Her black hair cascaded over her shoulders and back, and below her delicate collarbone, a profound cleavage exaggerated the white swollen curves remarkably.
"So big... no, so beautiful!"
Huo Ling'er couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
The woman, following the sound, looked over, her large, clear eyes filled with curiosity.
"May I ask... does Yu Yuan Immortal live here?"
Huo Ling'er subconsciously nodded, then a hint of vigilance appeared in her eyes.
"Who are you, and what do you need with my junior brother?"
"Junior brother? So, you are Yu Yuan Immortal's senior sister, right?" The woman's eyes sparkled with curiosity as she introduced herself:
"I am called Yao Ge, a mountain spirit... Initially, I sought Yu Yuan Immortal's help to return home, but since the Immortal is busy, he asked me to stay here for a while... However, I've been away from home for several years and really miss it..."
Yao Ge laid out her background without reservation.
When Huo Ling'er heard that this mountain spirit had been staying in Yu Yuan's Ruyi Qiankun Bag for several years, she couldn't help pouting.
No wonder he absolutely declined to bring me along when he went to the Northern Continent last time!
Hmph, what's so great about being a mountain spirit?
Just because you're a bit taller and somewhat bigger?
She looked down at her own chest... seems like it really is significantly bigger.
Even when compared to the Qingqiu Nine-tailed Fox Bai Ling, she seemed superior.
My junior brother must like the bigger ones!
"May I ask..."
While she was silently criticizing, suddenly a courteous greeting came from behind.
She was surprised someone could approach her silently!
Huo Ling'er quickly turned around, looking in astonishment toward the source of the voice.
The visitor wore a white dress purer than snow, her black hair fluttering, her face beautiful as flowers, her skin like ice and snow; at first glance, her age was indiscernible, only those slender eyebrows framed a pair of mature, peachy eyes.
But upon closer examination, Huo Ling'er noticed this beautiful lady lacked a physical body and was merely a manifestation of a Primordial Spirit.
However, her cultivation was profound, showing little difference between her Primordial Spirit and her physical body.
"May I ask if Yu Yuan Immortal lives here?" the beautiful lady asked softly.
Huo Ling'er subconsciously nodded.
"Then you must be Yu Yuan Immortal's senior sister." The lady smiled, "I am called Yun Hua. The Immortal has had many affairs to attend to these few days, so he asked me to stay at his residence temporarily, please excuse the intrusion."
Huo Ling'er's eyes twitched slightly, looking at Fairy Yun Hua with some suspicion.
What is her relationship with my junior brother?
The naive and simple mountain spirit from before was one thing, but this mature and charming Yun Hua made her somewhat suspicious.
Moments later, in that luxurious and grand Treasure Hall, three straw mats were placed in a '品' formation beside a large table.
As the hostess of the hall, Huo Ling'er knelt on the main mat then naturally invited the two guests to take their seats while she began to prepare tea with water from the Spiritual Spring.
During this process, she carefully observed the two of them.
On the left, Fairy Yun Hua sat gracefully on the straw mat, smiling gently, her demeanor cultured and poised; on the right, Fairy Yao Ge sat with her legs together in an 'M' shape, her watery eyes eagerly surveying the hall, as though everything appeared fascinating...
To Huo Ling'er, those bright and lively eyes seemed to convey a sort of innocent stupidity!
This Yao Ge should be easier to deal with, whereas Yun Hua...
Heavens, what am I even thinking!
Huo Ling'er suddenly came to her senses, warning herself while also silently sighing.
No wonder my junior brother has been going out more frequently these past few years!
Ah, what exactly about him attracts people?
Why do all these beautiful women "set their sights" on him?
This cannot continue this way!
Yun Hua is so beautiful, and with such a gentle and charming temperament, if I were my junior brother, I certainly wouldn't be able to resist her allure!
And then there's Yao Ge, being so... big, my junior brother surely likes that too!
Looking at Yao Ge with her innocent eyes observing all around, Huo Ling'er knew she couldn't continue getting lost in reckless thoughts, or else she would lose even more confidence.
With that thought, she took a deep breath, displayed the poise of the hall's hostess, warmly invited the two to drink tea, and smiled at Yun Hua, "Fellow Daoist, how did you come to know my junior brother?"
