Jiang Yuchan’s beauty was different from Bai Yue’s. Hers was innate, gifted to her by the Heavens themselves, flawless, and sublime.
Bai Yue’s beauty was that of a lone orchid growing in an empty land, rising above the mundane and mortal problems, especially in her character.
Chen Changan was a man
of culture and knew how to appreciate Jiang Yuchan.
[Nice, very nice. 36D.
His scrutiny left the seasoned Jiang Yuchan in the Upper Realm tense, a sense
of worry creeping in and even regret in descending to this world.
Chen Changan asked, “Was it you who helped me three days ago?”
Chen Changan felt on
her the same aura the Jade River Heart had.
Jiang Yuchan nodded.
“Indeed, Senior. I was ignorant of your boundless strength and provided
unnecessary help.”
Chen Changan
eviscerated the Butterfly Koi. “Since you’re not with the Ghost Immortal,
why are you here?”
Jiang Yuchan’s fear
mounted as she watched him slice the fish open and pull its guts. [What are you doing, Senior? Are you threatening me with your actions? I came out of goodwill and nothing else.]
Chen Changan tilted
his head at her silence. “Something wrong?”
“Uh, nothing, Senior.” Jiang Yuchan calmed down. “Senior, I’ve come for an Everlasting Immortal Fruit. I hope Senior will trade one with me.”
“Oh?” Chen
Changan blinked. [She came all the way from the Upper Realm just for that?]
“Why?”
Jiang Yuchan said, “My clan’s Immortal Ancestor’s life is at an end and needs the Everlasting Immortal Fruit to live on for longer. It is why I have come to the Lower Realm to see Senior. I hope Senior will agree. I can offer Immortal Artifacts, Immortal Herbs, and Immortal Stones in exchange.”
Ling Bao’er was
relishing her Everlasting Immortal Fruit, but then she caught Jiang Yuchan’s
words. She gave the pretty big sis a dumb look, then turned to the fruit in her
hand.
[Didn’t the pretty Big
Sister just say she wants to exchange Immortal Artifacts, Herbs, and Stones for
this fruit?]
She found the
Everlasting Immortal Fruit had lost its flavor. She has eaten six already over
the past couple of days.
[That’s six items!]
Chen Changan gasped.
He took the
Everlasting Immortal Fruit for some average Immortal Fruit, only to now realize
its true value from Jiang Yuchan, who was willing to give so much for just one.
Chen Changan used a
branch to skewer the eviscerated Butterfly Koi and place it over the fire to
roast it. “I’m more than happy to give you an Everlasting Immortal Fruit,
but I have one small question.”
Jiang Yuchan obliged.
“Please ask, Senior.”
“How much do you
know about the Ghost Immortal?”
Jiang Yuchan paused.
“I don’t know much, Senior, but I do know who sent him.”
“Who?”
“Immortal Lord
Shen Wu.”
“Elaborate.”
Chen Changan added.
Chen Changan and Immortal
Lord Shen Wu were at severe odds against one another. Immortal Lord Shen Wu
wished nothing more than to wring his neck. This was a good chance to learn
more about his enemy.
Jiang Yuchan nodded
and retold everything she knew about Immortal Lord Shen Wu. The guy had a
Martial Saint Sect in the Black Tortoise Immortal Domain and was among the
strongest Immortal Lords. Chen Changan found out he couldn’t descend to settle
the score, making him sigh in disappointment.
[Immortal Lord Shen Wu
has to be way stronger than the Ghost Immortal. I wonder how many Domain Points
he would net me.
“For your
sincerity, have a fish.” Chen Changan offered the first cooked fish to
Jiang Yuchan.
She rushed to give a
polite refusal. “No need, Senior.”
Chen Changan glared.
“Do you despising me?”
Jiang Yuchan flinched
and took the fish at once. “Thank you, Senior.”
Chen Changan beamed. “I’m pretty good in the kitchen. Eat, then we’ll talk about Everlasting Immortal Fruit.”
