Chapter 333: Rumors of the Lanterns
Ke Qiao and the other are currently attending some activities at a place and cannot get away for the moment; they will come here after it ends.
Although the two of them want to come back and take a look right now, there is nothing they can do.
Su Yu came to the kitchen, preparing to cook the fish that had just been caught.
It just so happened that he had also just returned from the Northern Region not long ago, and there were quite a few nourishing ingredients from there.
Thinking of this, Su Yu took out those ingredients.
Su Yu looked at the ingredients in front of him, and with a flash of his blade, he finished preparing them.
The sound of da da da echoed in the courtyard. Ling Wanqing looked towards Su Yu, and as she gazed at his back, she didn't know what she was thinking.
Ling Wanqing came back to her senses and saw the zither by the lake, feeling a bit moved.
Ling Wanqing walked over to the edge of the pond and sat down.
Ling Wanqing reached out and brushed the strings, beginning her performance. A cheerful and melodious zither sound lingered throughout the entire courtyard.
Listening to this zither music, Su Yu felt even more energized while chopping the vegetables.
Soon, the aroma of the food wafted out, and Su Yu began to serve all the prepared dishes.
Ling Wanqing also came to the table. Looking at the dishes in front of her, they were as appetizing as before.
Su Yu took out his wine gourd, poured a cup of wine, looked at Ling Wanqing, and said, "Let's eat."
Ling Wanqing looked at the dishes before her and didn't stand on ceremony, beginning to eat.
Ling Wanqing picked up an ingredient she hadn't seen before and put it into her mouth.
Immediately, Ling Wanqing felt the effects that the ingredient brought her after eating it.
She felt her whole body relax quite a bit, and those injuries seemed to be slowly recovering.
Ling Wanqing understood that these ingredients were spiritual foods with healing effects, and eating them would help her recovery.
Ling Wanqing said, "Thank you."
Su Yu smiled, "It's nothing. Eat up; it's better if you recover sooner."
The two of them also chatted about some other things.
The sky gradually darkened. Su Yu prepared to go back to sleep—of course, in Ling Wanqing's eyes, it was probably going back to Cultivate.
Su Yu looked at Ling Wanqing, "If your room is still missing anything, just say so, and I'll go get it for you."
Ling Wanqing shook her head, "No need."
"Alright then, see you tomorrow."
Su Yu then returned to his own room.
Ling Wanqing pushed open the door, walked inside, and went to the bed.
Ling Wanqing looked outside; the window by the bedside happened to face the beautiful scenery outside.
The moonlight shining on the lake surface gave a different feeling.
This quiet and peaceful environment felt as if she had come to another world.
Ling Wanqing sat cross-legged on the bed and thought of Su Yu. He really was a different kind of person—though, of course, you had to know him to realize it.
Ling Wanqing looked at the moon in the sky and cast her thoughts aside. She would likely be staying here for quite some time.
She should Cultivate and recover as soon as possible. The innate mysterious ice within Ling Wanqing's body was also circulating.
A few days later, as the sky slightly brightened, Su Yu had already pushed open his door.
Su Yu stretched his waist; it was another beautiful day.
Su Yu saw that there was already someone in the courtyard.
Indeed, the person in the courtyard was Ling Wanqing. Over the past few days, Ling Wanqing had become quite familiar with Su Yu's place.
Ling Wanqing would often stroll around the perimeter, but she never went outside the boundaries of Su Yu's territory.
Ling Wanqing was currently watering the spiritual plants in the courtyard.
Su Yu came to the tea table in the courtyard and began to brew tea.
After Su Yu brewed the tea, Ling Wanqing also came to the table and sat down. Su Yu poured a cup of the freshly brewed tea for Ling Wanqing.
"How is it? Have you gotten used to things these past few days?"
Ling Wanqing nodded, "Mm."
Ling Wanqing looked at Su Yu. To be honest, in their time together these past few days, it could be said that Su Yu had taken very good care of her.
Moreover, there weren't many people at Su Yu's place. Living in the same place these days had allowed Ling Wanqing to understand Su Yu's lifestyle habits better and to understand Su Yu more as well.
Su Yu looked at Ling Wanqing, "Right, Ke Qiao and the others are coming to visit you today. They had been quite worried about you before, but they were delayed because they didn't have time a few days ago."
Ling Wanqing smiled, "Aren't I perfectly fine?"
Su Yu looked at Ling Wanqing, "Those two must have experienced quite a lot together over these twenty years. I see that the two of them are basically always together now."
Ling Wanqing knew more than Su Yu did, "That's right, the two of them often go out together. Before, they would often call me too, but I had to be busy with Cultivation matters, so it was basically just the two of them acting together."
Su Yu nodded, no wonder.
As time passed, Ke Qiao brought Si Yin to Su Yu's place.
Seeing the two people in the courtyard drinking tea.
The two of them hurriedly came to Su Yu's side.
Si Yin looked at Ling Wanqing, "You're finally awake. I was so worried at that time."
"Aren't I perfectly fine? Getting injured is a common occurrence."
After Ke Qiao and Si Yin arrived, they chatted about many things.
The two of them didn't stay long, as they still had things to do.
After Ke Qiao and the other said goodbye to Su Yu and them, they left.
Su Yu then returned to his usual daily life.
One day, Su Yu brought Ling Wanqing to a Qin Building.
Su Yu still had the habit of coming to listen to the zither occasionally.
Ling Wanqing followed along this time, after all, Ling Wanqing was, after all, an expert in the Dao of the Zither.
Ling Wanqing followed Su Yu into this Qin Building.
The two of them quickly picked a spot and sat down; this was a small Qin Building in the Profound Heaven Sect Market.
However, this Qin Building was exceptionally popular.
Ling Wanqing looked at Su Yu. During this time, Su Yu would go out and stroll around to experience life from time to time.
At first, her body wasn't very convenient, so she didn't follow, but after recovering some, Ling Wanqing would also go with Su Yu.
Going on these trips was quite interesting.
The performance in the Qin Building soon began. Su Yu at this moment transformed into one of the members of this Qin Building, cheering for the performer after it ended.
Ling Wanqing found this scene somewhat interesting.
Even though he was clearly much better than the person performing, he would still, like an ordinary person, give the performer enough cheers and support.
After the performance ended, Ling Wanqing thought they were going back.
But Su Yu brought Ling Wanqing to the night Market, "Since we're out, of course we should walk around more."
Under Su Yu's guidance, Ling Wanqing kept weaving through the night Market; Su Yu was already very familiar with these things.
Under Su Yu's guidance, Ling Wanqing experienced quite a few things and also gained some new insights.
Ling Wanqing looked at the lanterns in the stream and the people who were still releasing lanterns.
Looking at this scene, for some reason, Ling Wanqing wanted to go too.
Su Yu saw Ling Wanqing's thought and brought Ling Wanqing to a vendor.
Su Yu had already released them quite a few times before when he brought Su Ling'er.
Su Yu said, "Give me one of those lanterns."
"Alright, customer."
Su Yu looked at Ling Wanqing, "Aren't you going to buy one?"
Ling Wanqing knew that Su Yu had seen through her thoughts. Ling Wanqing looked at those lanterns and began to pick one out.
The two came to the side of the stream and set the lanterns they bought into the water.
At the moment they stood up, the two quietly watched the slowly drifting lanterns.
And just at this moment, someone behind them said, "You two are also Dao Companions here to release lanterns, right? Have you heard that there is also a rumor about this place?"
