Chapter 778 Cloudy Peak 1
The mountain peaks are straight and steep, the cliffs are precipitous and dangerous. Ordinary people definitely cannot climb up.
After leaving the horses at the foot of Cloud Mist Peak, Su Luo and Apothecary Leng, lightly dressed, flew directly up the cliff.
As expected of the highest peak in West Ling Nation.
It is at least ten thousand meters high according to visual estimation.
Coupled with the steepness of the peak, which is slippery and difficult to grip, Su Luo nearly fell several times.
With Su Luo's strength at the fifth rank, it was very difficult to climb Cloud Mist Peak, which shows that truly few people disturb Master Rong Yun on a daily basis.
This mountain peak alone has blocked the vast majority of those seeking medical treatment.
It was only at dawn the next day, when a red sun rose from the eastern horizon and the morning light shone through the colorful clouds, that Su Luo finally reached the summit.
So cold. As soon as she took a breath, Su Luo felt as if her lungs were almost frozen.
Cloud Mist Mountain has a very high altitude, so the summit is covered in snow all year round, and it is freezing cold.
Looking around, all she saw was white.
The sky was white, the ground was white, and even the green plants were covered with thick layers of white snow.
"Let's go, Master lives there," Apothecary Leng pointed to the exquisitely built estate in front.
The estate is located in an open area of the mountain peak, covering a very large area, and she couldn't see the end of it at a glance.
Apothecary Leng skillfully pushed open the door and, as he walked in, smiled at Su Luo, "Master is by nature fond of quietness and dislikes being disturbed by others, so there are only Master and two attendants here all year round."
"When Master teaches, he usually only teaches once."
"Master dislikes people talking back or interrupting."
"Master…"
Su Luo observed her surroundings while silently remembering Apothecary Leng's instructions.
Before long, Apothecary Leng led Su Luo into the study.
Master Rong Yun sat calmly behind the long desk in a rosewood armchair, his back facing Su Luo.
"Master…"
Before Apothecary Leng could finish speaking, Master Rong Yun raised his right hand.
Immediately, Apothecary Leng fell silent.
"You go out first." A hint of coldness faintly permeated Master Rong Yun's voice.
Master seems to be in a bad mood today. Apothecary Leng gave Su Luo a sympathetic look, then obediently walked out, quietly closing the heavy wooden door behind him.
After Apothecary Leng left, there was a moment of silence in the study.
Master Rong Yun wore a loose white brocade robe, and a light-colored ribbon on his head tied back his hair as soft as silk. His whole person exuded a profound and mysterious cold dignity.
Su Luo couldn't guess Master Rong Yun's age. If judged purely by appearance, he was only slightly older than Nangong Liuyun.
Just as Su Luo was letting her thoughts run wild, suddenly, the armchair Master Rong Yun was sitting in turned.
His deep and clear eyes, cold and serene, stared at Su Luo. His sword-like brows furrowed, seemingly with a hint of displeasure.
Su Luo secretly wondered to herself, she shouldn't have offended him in any way, right?
Why was he staring at her with such a look of disdain?
"Master above, your disciple pays respects."
Saying that, Su Luo was about to perform a bow.
However, Master Rong Yun frowned and raised his hand to stop her action.
"I don't deserve that title." Master Rong Yun's voice was as cold as frost. "I haven't formally accepted you as a disciple yet."
A hint of confusion flashed through Su Luo's heart.
What did Master Rong Yun mean by this? Clearly, on that day in the Golden Throne Hall, he himself said he would accept her as a disciple. Why was he denying it now? And why was there a deliberate aloofness towards her…
If it were according to Su Luo's original temper, how could she possibly be lectured like this, pointed at her nose?
But in front of this esteemed person, Su Luo did not dare to be presumptuous and could only lower her stance: "Master…"
