Chapter 79 - Immortal Aunt

Having composed himself, Ye Haochuan then hurried towards the back mountain of Haishan University.

It was noon at the time, the blazing sun like fire, with most teachers and students resting in their dormitories.

Arriving at the back mountain, it was silent and rarely frequented by people.

Just as his mind began to wander, Ye Haochuan suddenly heard a light whistle, and saw a woman dressed in white leap out from the woods behind the mountain, bounding several meters up high, her feet barely touching the ground as if a graceful immortal gliding effortlessly on the waves.

At that moment, the whole world seemed purified, suffused with a holy aura.

Before Ye Haochuan could get a clear look at her face, she leaped up again, her movements elegant, pausing on a locust tree with a commanding view from above.

Honestly, any ordinary person standing on the thin branches would hardly be steady, yet she stood unshakable like a mountain, which demonstrated her extraordinary cultivation.

Ye Haochuan watched with great envy, damn, when could I move about like her, flying high?

That would be so great.

Beyond admiration, Ye Haochuan began to size her up.

Her long hair fluttered in the wind, and she wore a flowing white dress.

A light breeze swept by, making the hem of her dress flutter, emanating an ethereal charm.

Unfortunately, her face was veiled with white gauze, making her age indiscernible; however, her beautiful eyes, shimmering and glancing about, could captivate anyone’s heart.

Damn it, veiled face, so I’m powerless, right?

Swallowing, Ye Haochuan felt somewhat annoyed and immediately activated his Perspective Eyes, peering through.

The white gauze obscuring her face gradually vanished, revealing a flawless, stunningly beautiful visage.

Holy crap, which heavenly immortal descended to earth?

She’s bubbling with beauty, unbelievably so!

As Ye Haochuan was astonished, the immortal finally spoke with a gentle voice, as if carrying an indescribable magic power, “You are Ye Haochuan?”

“I am Ye Haochuan, you must be Long Piaoying, right?” Ye Haochuan said cheerily.

“Mhm,” the immortal nodded in confirmation.

“Hello, Immortal Aunt!” Ye Haochuan greeted promptly.

“Immortal Aunt?” Long Piaoying was momentarily surprised before shaking her head with a light chuckle, her tone indifferent, “Given my age, I am a full cycle of sixty years older than you, calling me ‘aunt’ isn’t quite fitting.”

“What?

A full cycle of sixty years older?

A cycle is sixty years!

I’m just over twenty, so if you are sixty years older, doesn’t that make you over eighty now?”

Ye Haochuan was shocked.

“Exactly,” Long Piaoying nodded slightly.

Ye Haochuan almost fainted, oh my god, how could this be?

An eighty-year-old woman, and she could still look after herself this well?

She barely looked any different from a beautiful young girl!

But then he felt somewhat relieved; these people from the Ancient Martial Arts Sect were all extraordinary.

It’s not right to measure them by normal human standards.

Her youthful appearance was probably closely related to her cultivation.

Of course, it was also possible she had consumed some youth-preserving elixirs, just like the Body-Strengthening Pills he had concocted himself.

Suddenly, Ye Haochuan shivered, damn, he had just been daydreaming about her, even wishing to devour her.

It was lucky that he now knew her real age; otherwise, had he not been careful, wouldn’t he have fallen into a grotesque romance?

Ugh, that’s disgusting!

However, as much as he thought this, when he saw the ethereal visage of the immortal again, that feeling of disgust in his heart utterly disappeared, and an idea so bold it even startled him began to take root.

What’s going on?

Why do I feel a sudden urge to possess her when I see her?

Am I innately a beast, or has she turned me into one?

As Ye Haochuan’s mind was in turmoil, Long Piaoying seemed to have no patience for his silence and suddenly said, “Ye Haochuan, I came to Haishan on my brother’s orders, mainly for you.”

Ye Haochuan came back to his senses and nodded.

Long Xiaotian had already mentioned this to him.

“The things my brother asked me to bring to you are all inside here, have a look for yourself.” With these words, she beckoned, and an ancient-looking box appeared in her hand.

Ye Haochuan was stunned, not having seen clearly how she did it, the box simply materialized out of thin air, how magical.

“Catch!”

As soon as Long Piaoying’s words fell, the box seemed to be held up by an invisible force, flying steadily and unhurriedly towards him.

Ye Haochuan was greatly astonished, damn, he thought, I can’t even catch up to this kind of ability if I try!

Deep inside, he silently vowed that one day he too would cultivate martial arts path cultivation like an Immortal, and achieve great things.

As his thoughts churned, the box had already flown to him, and Ye Haochuan reached out and grabbed it in his hand.

“Eh, Bone Fracture Hand?” Long Piaoying suddenly recognized the martial skills routine he was using and frowned deeply.

Ye Haochuan nodded and said, puzzled, “What’s the matter, Immortal Aunt, is there a problem?”

?

Long Piaoying couldn’t help but laugh and cry at his quick change of address.

However, given her age, not to mention aunt, even being his grandmother would be more than enough.

Therefore, she didn’t take it to heart and let him call her that.

“Where did you learn the heretical sect’s martial skills, Hellfire?” Long Piaoying asked in a serious tone.

“I learned it from a guy named Fang Ba!”

Ye Haochuan then recounted how he encountered Fang Ba, how he killed him, and how he learned the Bone Fracture Hand and Lion’s Roar.

After listening to his story, Long Piaoying’s demeanor shifted from its prior nonchalance to a stern warning, “Ye Haochuan, heretical sect’s martial skills can cause considerable harm.

From now on, you must not practice them anymore, understand?”

Ye Haochuan didn’t quite agree and said, “Immortal Aunt, you just mentioned that the Bone Fracture Hand is a heretical sect’s martial skill, but I disagree.”

“What?” Long Piaoying frowned.

Ye Haochuan said loudly, “Immortal Aunt, I ask you, what is right?

What is wrong?

In my view, if a person from a righteous sect harbors evil intent, then they are heretical.

If a person from a heretical sect does good, then they are righteous.

If you insist on a clear distinction, you might miss the bigger picture.”

“You…” Long Piaoying was about to scold him loudly, but after giving it some thought, she shook her head, “Heretical sect’s martial arts are extremely vicious and overbearing.

If you forcefully cultivate them, you will eventually harm yourself.

I have said my piece, whether you listen or not is up to you.”

Ye Haochuan chuckled and said, “You needn’t worry about me, Immortal Aunt, I know my own limits.”

Long Piaoying shook her head, not wanting to argue any further, and said, “You should take a look at what’s inside the box first.”

Only then did Ye Haochuan remember, what exactly is in this box?

I must have a good look.
