Chapter 3491 Xuanyuan Zhantian’s Request
As the saying goes, 'a timely rain after a long drought, and meeting an old friend in a foreign land,' Linglong Fairy never expected to meet Ye Bufan the moment she arrived in the Immortal Realm, filling her heart with joy.
"Ye Yixian, is it really you?"
Ye Bufan was equally surprised, not expecting to meet the newly Ascended Linglong here.
"It's me!"
Ye Bufan said, "How is Senior Brother Xuanyuan?"
He still had a very good impression of Xuanyuan Zhantian; aside from being a bit lewd, the Old Man was quite decent.
It was just a pity that he and his wife Cultivated the techniques of a Loose Immortal, with no hope of Ascension in their lifetime.
"My father is doing very well."
Linglong said, then remembered something and took out the xuan ying stone, handing it over.
"My father gave me this before my Ascension; he said if I could meet Ye Yixian, I should give it to you."
"Oh!"
Ye Bufan was also curious, wondering what Xuanyuan Zhantian had left for him.
He took the xuan ying stone, and with a thought, an image floated in mid-air, showing not only Xuanyuan Zhantian but also Lady Fanghua.
"Brother Ye, hello."
Although it was a pre-recorded image, Xuanyuan Zhantian in it still had a smiling face and cupped his hands.
"If you, young man, can see this xuan ying stone of mine, you must already be in the Immortal Realm.
It's unfair, you're so young and can Ascend, while I, this Old Man, have Cultivated for so many years and can only be a Loose Immortal in the end.
Whether you Ascend or not is none of my business, but the crucial thing is that the pig trotters are all gone, and I can't restock from you, so my mouth tastes bland every day, nothing else tastes good.
And those wines you sent, they're really a scam; after drinking them, everything else tastes like plain water, you young man, you've really ruined this Old Man…"
Xuanyuan Zhantian seemed to have not found anyone to talk to for a long time, rambling on and on…
These words sounded like accusations, even mixed with some vulgarities, but Ye Bufan found them extremely endearing, and a smile couldn't help but curve at the corner of his mouth.
This was Xuanyuan Zhantian, always true to his nature no matter what he did.
After talking for a long time, the Old Man finally sighed: "Our meeting, brother, is fate; I won't say anything else, but I have something to ask of you today.
Linglong, this child, has a hard life; if it weren't for you, she would have completely perished. Since you saved her life, please take good care of her for me."
At this point, he and Lady Fanghua beside him actually knelt down together, kowtowing to Ye Bufan.
"Brother Ye, Linglong is in your care!"
"Uh…"
Ye Bufan was caught off guard; the Old Man had been so flippant earlier, but suddenly became serious at the end.
At the same time, he was touched; parents are always the ones most concerned about their children, and neither Immortals nor Cultivators are exempt from this.
The image ended there, and he put away the xuan ying stone.
Linglong Fairy was unaware of Xuanyuan Zhantian's actions and was also somewhat stunned.
After a brief moment of daze, she quickly said, "Ye Yixian, my father and mother were just saying things casually, please don't take it too much to heart."
Ye Bufan said, "No matter what, Senior Xuanyuan and I hit it off immediately. How about you stay by my side from now on?"
He was a person who valued relationships deeply, and since Xuanyuan Zhantian had even knelt to plead with him, he naturally couldn't refuse.
"Ye Yixian, you really don't need to take it too much to heart; my father was just saying things casually."
Speaking of this, a blush appeared on Linglong Fairy's face, "Besides, I'm not helpless now that I've arrived in the Immortal Realm; I still have Geng Shixiong.
If you can help, just tell me where Geng Shixiong is."
Ye Bufan frowned slightly; this was the most troublesome problem for him.
It was clear that Geng Junsheng was not a good match; Xuanyuan Zhantian and Linglong had all been deceived by his superficial appearance.
If it were any other woman, he could completely ignore it, as it was her own choice after all.
But Linglong was different; she was Xuanyuan Zhantian's daughter, and moreover, the Old Man had just knelt to him. No matter what, he couldn't stand idly by.
He had to get involved in this matter, but it wasn't easy to handle. Linglong Fairy was like a woman in love, completely swept away by emotion, and some things he said, she probably wouldn't believe.
"Uh… Linglong Fairy, I think so many years have passed, you don't need to go look for your Geng Shixiong anymore…"
According to Ye Bufan's idea, he wanted Linglong Fairy not to meet Geng Junsheng. Anyway, the Immortal Realm was so vast, and nothing would happen if the two didn't meet.
This way, she wouldn't know the truth, wouldn't be sad or disappointed, and certainly wouldn't be hurt.
But before he could finish speaking, Linglong Fairy stubbornly shook her head.
"No, the reason I left my parents and Ascended to the Immortal Realm was to find Senior Brother.
He once swore in front of me that he wouldn't change his mind, not in a thousand years, not in ten thousand years, not in a hundred thousand years; he would never betray me in this life!"
As Linglong Fairy spoke, her cheeks flushed, and her expression was agitated.
Ye Bufan secretly shook his head. He was an Earthling, accustomed to all kinds of love and relationships, and also accustomed to women who were blinded by emotion like this.
What she said, Geng Junsheng himself had probably already forgotten, otherwise he wouldn't have been desperately pursuing Immortal Maiden Mu Lanzhi earlier.
However, the more this was the case, the more troublesome it became; trying to persuade the other party was an extremely difficult task.
After much hesitation, he finally decided not to hide it anymore and to lay everything out.
"Linglong Fairy, to be honest, I've actually met your Geng Shixiong before…"
"What? You've met Geng Shixiong? Ye Yixian, is this true?"
Suddenly having news of Geng Junsheng, Linglong Fairy was incredibly excited.
"Where is he now? Is he doing well? I'm going to find him, I'm going to find him right now!"
It had to be said that she was a woman of deep affection; even after a thousand years, her love and longing had not diminished in the slightest.
"Don't rush, let me tell you slowly, that Geng Shixiong might not be what you imagine…"
Ye Bufan patiently recounted his encounter with Geng Junsheng from beginning to end, finally saying, "When I met him, he was constantly pursuing Immortal Maiden Mu Lanzhi of the Tianyan Sect, and he has probably already forgotten about you.
This person's character is problematic; he will stop at nothing for personal gain.
He's even capable of harming fellow disciples, so I don't think he's a good match."
"That's impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Linglong Fairy's face turned extremely ugly, and she kept shaking her head.
"Impossible, Senior Brother Geng is definitely not the kind of person you describe!"
Her attitude was firm and full of anger; if it weren't for Ye Bufan's special status, she probably would have already resorted to harsh words.
Ye Bufan sighed, "What I said is all true."
"No, it must be wrong. I understand Senior Brother Geng; he is a very kind person, he is a true gentleman."
Linglong said with an agitated expression, "I'm going to find him now, I'm going to make him prove it to you all."
With that, she turned to leave, but suddenly seven or eight people walked out of the Ascension Hall, blocking her path.
