Senior Sister Bai Yueguang is incredibly strong.

Chapter 109 A Trip to Penglai (2)

Penglai is a secluded island, guarded by Penglai Pavilion. Legend has it that the former master of Penglai Pavilion observed the celestial phenomena and foresaw the destiny of heaven.

Penglai has always been a mysterious place in the cultivation world.

"It is said that the former master of Penglai Pavilion once deduced and comprehended the Dao here, which led to the current golden age of cultivation. It can be said to be the birthplace of cultivation. However, with the passage of time, Penglai has now become a deserted island."

Xue Xin couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Although it's called a small island, it's actually about the size of ten Japanese castles. The island is shrouded in mist, which adds to its mystique.

They were now within the territory of Penglai. Luo Zai Shui cautioned, "Penglai is home to many rare and exotic beasts, many of which are highly poisonous. Do not touch them carelessly. Also, many talented and extraordinary people live in seclusion here. They all have some eccentricities, so it's best not to disturb them. Let's go to Penglai Pavilion and find Pavilion Master Bu first."

"clear."

Just as they were about to descend, a boy suddenly appeared and blocked their way.

Dressed in crane patterns with a red dot between his eyebrows, he was dressed as a disciple of Penglai Pavilion.

"May I ask if it is young friend Luo who has come to visit?"

The child, though only five or six years old, spoke in a very serious and methodical manner, bearing a resemblance to the old fortune teller.

"That is indeed me."

Luo stepped forward at the water station.

“My master knew you were coming, so he specially sent me here to welcome you. Please follow me.”

Luo Zai Shui hesitated for a moment, and Xue Xin, sensing something amiss, took the initiative to speak: "Is this young friend a newly accepted disciple of Pavilion Master Bu?"

"Indeed, this is my master's token of authority. Do you all still have any doubts?"

The boy presented the token to Luo Zai Shui. The token could not be faked, so even if he had a thousand doubts, he could only suppress them in his heart.

The boy spoke with a hint of pride: "My master had already foreseen that you would be coming, and specially sent me here. He even calculated the exact time."

"Yeah?"

Luo Zai Shui gave a forced smile, muttering under his breath, "What a charlatan!"

"Does your master know the purpose of our visit?"

The boy shook his head and imitated his master's tone, which was quite cute: "Fellow Daoist, you will know once you come with me."

The group followed the boy through the dense forest, brushing past white cranes with outstretched wings. Just as they entered another dense forest, Luo Zai Shui suddenly stopped Xue Xin.

"Senior sister, what's wrong?"

Luo watched the boy disappear into the dense forest with cold eyes. When he saw them stop, he stopped as well.

"Please follow me, guest."

Luo Zai Shui smiled kindly: "Little brother, if you want to go to Penglai, why don't you just fly in the sky? Why bother going through the forest?"

"Because...because...there is a hermit here who dislikes people flying on swords in the sky."

"Yeah?"

Luo Zai Shui's lips curled up even higher, and she conjured a peach branch given to her by her master in her hand: "But I've heard that the dense forest ahead is inhabited by spirits that dislike strangers trespassing. If someone trespasses, they will be thrown out of the forest."

"How...how is that possible...I'm standing here and nothing's wrong, and you're guests, how could I..."

The lie was exposed; after all, he was just a teenager and didn't know how to control his expression.

Luo Zai Shui swiftly pulled him out of the dense forest. Before the boy could react, Luo Zai Shui grabbed him by the collar and dragged him out of the forest he was relying on.

He struggled for a moment, but finding he couldn't break free from the female demon's grasp, he gave up: "Even the people of Penglai might not know that there's something wrong with that dense forest. How did you know?"

Could this person also possess the ability to foresee the future? No wonder he is Master's guest.

Luo Zai Shui gently pinched his nose: "Didn't you even bother to find out how much I know about your Penglai before you tried to prank us? My senior sister led me through your Penglai Pavilion back then, how could I not know what dangers are here?"

The little boy's eyes widened. She forced her way into Penglai Pavilion. What great skill! Master even let her come as a guest. No wonder my senior brother told me she was a female demon. It's true.

Seeing the boy's angry expression, Luo Zai Shui felt a bit teasing: "Who told you to do this? Don't talk nonsense, or I'll settle accounts with your master."

The boy was filled with regret. He should have known better than to agree to his senior brother's prank. He had planned to lure the boy into the dense forest, suffer a little loss, and then tell him it was his carelessness that way, so the boy wouldn't have much to say.

But now, he's handed someone a handle on him.

He steeled his resolve, adopting a death-defying expression: "I won't tell you that it was my senior brother who ordered me to do it!"

"What a little brat," Luo said, shaking the little devil in her hand. Seeing that he wouldn't reveal anything else, she put him on the ground.

"Since you're so unwelcoming to us, we'll be leaving now."

After saying that, she turned around and prepared to leave with Xue Xin and the other person.

The boy panicked. If his master found out that he had angered the guests and driven them away, he would definitely be punished by copying books again.

"and many more!"

Before Luo Zai Shui and the others could even draw their swords, the little boy hurriedly stopped them and said urgently, "This was my fault. I hope you senior brothers and sisters will forgive me. My master is waiting for you in the hall. I suppose you all have something to discuss with me. Please don't let me delay important matters."

Seeing the boy's remorse, Luo Zai Shui smiled and pinched his chubby cheek: "Next time you must be able to distinguish things yourself, understand? Don't just believe everything you hear. You must be able to judge what is important and what is right and wrong."

Knowing that he was in the wrong, the little boy blushed with embarrassment and said in a soft voice, "I understand, senior sister, please come with me."

Along the way, the little boy behaved much better and stopped flying around. He also took the opportunity to explain the local customs and culture of Penglai to them.

They arrived at the gate of Penglai Pavilion without incident and happened to run into Mingwen, the second disciple of Penglai Pavilion.

Luo Zai Shui had a good impression of this little girl.

She bowed respectfully to Luo Zai Shui, saying, "Senior Sister Luo."

Luo Zai Shui returned the greeting: "Since our parting at the sect competition, Junior Sister Ming has made great progress."

Mingwen smiled gently: "Thanks to Senior Sister's guidance last time, I was able to have an epiphany. Master is already waiting in the hall. Please follow me."

The little boy ran up to his senior sister, took her hand, and asked in a low voice, "Senior sister, where did senior brother go?"

Mingwen looked around and said, "I don't know either. I haven't seen him this morning."

The boy nodded solemnly: "I hope he doesn't show up these next few days."

Mingwen laughed and asked, "How did he find out about you?"

The boy said with a serious face, "He almost killed me, and he should be held accountable for this."

Mingwen chuckled and said, "Well, let your senior brother fend for himself."

Every word of their conversation reached the ears of the other three.

Xue Xin silently mourned for that person. His senior sister was the best at disciplining unruly children. He hoped the person would be alright in a while.

What you keep in mind will eventually come to pass.

Mingling was already waiting in the hall. Seeing that Luo Zaishui and the others didn't seem to have any problems, and that his junior brother was looking at him with righteous indignation, Mingling knew he was in trouble.

"Master, my senior brother..."

The junior brother immediately tried to complain, but Mingling, quick-witted, covered his mouth.

"Master, my junior brother must be tired from bringing people back. I'll take him down to rest first, and also prepare some food for the guests."

As he spoke, he pulled his junior brother away. When they passed Luo Zai Shui, he saw that the other party did not show any displeasure and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The Second Senior Sister of Xianyun Peak has a good reputation, so she shouldn't be such a petty person. Thinking of this, she dragged her junior brother out of the hall.
