Free Web NovelChapter 673: 756 Zuoqiu Yiren
"Auntie, I remember you said Chen Mo would get first place, right?" After his astonishment, Wang Chen looked at the young girl with a smile.
But now, it was Xiao Jiu who took first place.
The girl rolled her eyes at Wang Chen, thinking it hardly counted. How could she have expected Chen Mo to concede and give up the first place?
If he hadn’t conceded, he would surely be first.
"But is she really the Fox King of the Qingqiu Spirit Fox Race?"
The girl looked at Xiao Jiu’s figure in the distance and murmured.
"Auntie, what are you talking about?" Wang Chen looked at his aunt’s moving lips and asked.
"Xiao Chen, help Auntie with something." The girl said.
Wang Chen’s expression immediately changed, as the girl usually called him a ’brat’, only calling him ’Xiao Chen’ when she needed a favor.
Wang Chen dared not refuse because once he did, the girl would use her brother-in-law’s authority to teach him a harsh lesson.
"What favor?" Wang Chen asked.
...
As the Freshman Conference drew to a close, Chen Mo, rewarded, returned to the Suoxian Courtyard with several girls. At this time, a black shadow appeared in the sky, heading towards Chen Mo.
Chen Mo frowned, not daring to be careless. He immediately summoned the Nine Thunder Profound Celestial Spear, ready for anything.
As the black shadow approached, its true form was revealed in front of Chen Mo—a crane.
The Immortal Crane stopped about three meters away from Chen Mo, and a figure descended from it.
Chen Mo and the others were not unfamiliar with this person.
"Junior Brother Chen Mo, long time no see." Wang Chen glanced at the long spear in Chen Mo’s hand and said, "I have no hostility, no need to be so tense. I came specifically to find you."
Upon finishing, he glanced at the beauties beside Chen Mo, with a hint of envy in his eyes.
Though he wasn’t lacking in women with his status, none matched the beauty of Jiang Ruoqing, Zhao Qianyi, Xiao Jiu, and Nangong Yue.
It’s not that he hadn’t met such beauties before; the inner sect had some, but either they were already taken, or they found him unworthy.
Despite his high status, his innate talent was ordinary, otherwise, he wouldn’t just be at the Golden Core Realm now.
Even so, Chen Mo didn’t drop his guard and asked, "I wonder what important business Brother Wang has with me?"
Chen Mo wasn’t familiar with him and didn’t understand why he was seeking him out.
"To be precise, it’s not me looking for you, but my aunt wants to meet you," Wang Chen said.
"Your aunt?" Chen Mo showed confusion, somewhat puzzled.
The women also looked surprised.
"I almost forgot, my aunt’s name is Zuoqiu Yiren. You should have heard of her." As he said this, Wang Chen’s face showed a trace of pride.
"Zuoqiu Yiren?" Chen Mo shook his head, "Never heard of her."
Wang Chen: "..."
Just as Wang Chen was sweating, about to explain his aunt’s identity, Nangong Yue suddenly exclaimed, "One of the Qiuxian Double Immortals from the Beiming Domain?
Zuoqiu Yiren? If Zuoqiu Yiren is your aunt, then Zuoqiu Qiuren is your..."
"Precisely, my mother." Wang Chen picked up after Nangong Yue’s words, a smile on his face.
"Qiuxian Double Immortals?" Upon hearing the title, it sounded familiar to Chen Mo. Chi Xuzi’s booklet had mentioned the Qiuxian Double Immortals briefly but didn’t dive into details about them.
"Who are the Qiuxian Double Immortals?" Zhao Qianyi, Jiang Ruoqing, Xiao Jiu looked at Nangong Yue with curiosity.
After Nangong Yue’s explanation, Chen Mo and the others learned that the Qiuxian Double Immortals referred to two individuals, Zuoqiu Qiuren and Zuoqiu Yiren, who were two direct daughters of the biggest family in the Beiming Domain, the Zuoqiu Family.
The reason they were called Qiuxian Double Immortals was that at their father’s birthday celebration, their celestial appearance captivated everyone, earning them the name Qiuxian Double Immortals.
Back then, the title was merely a passing mention, not much known.
What truly made them famous was the sect competition over four hundred years ago.
In the Eleven Domains of Primordial Heaven, almost all sects participated.
Competitors were required to be above the Golden Core Realm and below the Void Realm.
That is, within the Nascent Soul Realm and Divinity Transformation Realm.
And the winner of that sect competition was Zuoqiu Yiren, a disciple of the Daoist Alliance and the Shenxiao Sect.
In that competition, Zuoqiu Yiren also showcased her Immortal Body—the Merak Sword Body to the crowds.
Since then, Zuoqiu Yiren became famous throughout the entire Primordial Heaven.
After gaining fame, the title Qiuxian Double Immortals was brought up again. Given Zuoqiu Yiren’s high strength, possessing an Immortal Body, and heavenly beauty comparable to a fairy, the title was well deserved. Thus, during that period, the Qiuxian Double Immortals were frequently mentioned.
On the contrary, Zuoqiu Qiuren, one of the Double Immortals, besides having fairy-like beauty, was quite ordinary in other aspects, remembered mainly because of Zuoqiu Yiren.
Later, Zuoqiu Qiuren married, and Zuoqiu Yiren went into seclusion, appearing less and less in public. Consequently, the title Qiuxian Double Immortals faded in Primordial Heaven.
However, once mentioned, people still remember it.
Nangong Yue looked at Wang Chen with astonishment, seemingly shocked that he was actually the son of Zuoqiu Qiuren. Even though Wang Chen was handsome, comparing with his fairy-like mother, he appeared quite ordinary.
Being surprised, Chen Mo looked at Wang Chen and said, "So why does your aunt want to meet me? We don’t know each other."
"She fancies you," Wang Chen said without holding back, unaware that his words could lead to imaginations.
"What?!" The women immediately widened their eyes, looking incredulous.
Even Chen Mo was stunned. Could his charm really be that overwhelming...
At this moment, Wang Chen realized the oddness of his words and quickly said, "I mean she has taken a liking to you and wants to accept you as her disciple."
Hearing this, the women finally calmed down a bit, yet still felt astonished as it was quite bizarre for someone unseen to suddenly want to take Chen Mo as a disciple.
"How do I know you’re telling the truth?" Chen Mo wasn’t naive, not just taking Wang Chen’s words at face value.
"Auntie mentioned she could help you meet Senior Sister soon. By the way, who is your Senior Sister?" Wang Chen didn’t understand his aunt’s words and had to ask Chen Mo.
"Your Highness."
"Fujin."
Both Jiang Ruoqing and Zhao Qianyi trembled.
Chen Mo finally got serious, retracting the Nine Thunder Profound Celestial Spear into his body, then said, "Alright, I’ll go meet her."
He had too many questions he wanted answers to.
"Follow me then." Wang Chen leapt onto the Immortal Crane and then turned back to see the expressions of the women, saying, "Auntie only invited him."
Jiang Ruoqing, Zhao Qianyi, Xiao Jiu, and Nangong Yue furrowed their brows.
"You all head back to the Suoxian Courtyard first. I’ll come find you when it’s over." Chen Mo said.
"But..." Zhao Qianyi started to say, worrying.
"It’ll be fine." Chen Mo brushed her hair gently.
