Chapter 239 Arrival in Linfeng County
The bronze compass floated slowly in the sky.
Layer upon layer of leaden clouds, like solidified waves, piled up as far as the eye could see.
A gust of wind blew by, lifting the hem of her light blue rosewood skirt.
She stood tall and straight, her long hair flowing like an ink waterfall, and a red feather brushed against her sharply defined jawline, adding to her aloof and lonely air.
Ao Bai: "Turn left in 500 meters ahead!"
Huali nodded reservedly, exuding an air of authority as she turned one hand behind her back, and with a gentle flick of her other hand, her two fingers together, the compass suddenly changed direction.
She coughed demurely, waiting for the praise.
However, at this moment when the atmosphere was perfect, a moment worthy of being captured in a painting—
"Puff puff puff—" came from behind.
A flock of gray-black birds darted past, skimming close to the edge of the compass, easily leaving the compass, which resembled a donkey pulling a millstone, behind them.
Having probably never seen a cultivator move so slowly, the largest one in the group turned around and glanced at Huali, its tiny eyes filled with undisguised disgust and contempt.
Provoked by the disdainful look of this intern, a typical veteran driver, Huali thought, "...Damn it."
"What is grass?" Shrimp Brother, who was writing furiously, looked up.
Huali lost half of her aloof and independent air, but she forcibly picked it up again, continuing with her nonchalant attitude, "...just a plant."
Brother Shrimp nodded. "But I've heard you mention 'grass' several times along the way. Do you want to pick the magic herb?"
Huali: "......"
Instead of wasting time arguing with these unromantic people, Huali regained control of the situation and reached into her robes to pull out her second status symbol – a flute.
Seeing the girl take a deep breath, preparing to practice her evil arts, Ao Bai and Xia Ge immediately activated the highest alert! They skillfully stuffed the cotton balls they had prepared into her ears, grimaced, and closed their eyes.
Sure enough! There was no clear, melodious sound at all. The first note was like a goose being choked by fate, with a hoarse, leaky whine.
"Gah—"
However, Huali didn't even frown, she took another deep breath and her fingers twitched slightly.
"Pfft—" It sounded like someone let out a silent fart.
The girl paused, but her expression remained unchanged. She stubbornly played "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" as if it were "Requiem," scaring away several flocks of sparrows that were passing by.
If you want to know how this sudden confidence came about, you'll find the answer in three steps!
Ao Bai's eyes swept sharply over Yan Xi, who was clapping leisurely to the side, "Huali has improved again."
Karin's eyes lit up. "Little bird, you're truly my soulmate!"
Ao Bai looked at the blatantly lying Mouyu and the deadbeat who had been praised like an embryo over the past few days, and thought, "..."
Meow King sneered, "Well done, little bird, you have no idea what you're about to face."
You're praising me so enthusiastically now, but you'll be crying when we get to Linfeng County.
They had been flying for three days after setting off from the Cangming Sea.
Today is the time that our loving family has agreed to meet.
From early morning, Tang Wanwan kept bombarding me with messages: "Where are you? Whatever you do, don't go in through the city gate. Those devils sent people to wait for you early this morning."
"Wait for me in the grove outside Linfeng County. Let's go find Shao Siming first, and then participate in the preliminary selection."
"Huh? There's an audition for registration? But I'm not prepared at all."
"No need to prepare anything, just dress up nicely."
"I'm here, hurry up! And remember, whatever you do, absolutely do not tell the little bird about this, understand?"
Hua Li was hurriedly replying to the message, completely oblivious to the dark glint that flashed in Yan Xi's eyes beside her.
To completely eradicate the black energy, Geluo Tan's answer was to bring everyone to the Ruins of Fallen Stars.
That would mean that those who sealed him away back then were among them.
He needs to take this opportunity to seal the soul imprint in this body a second time to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
The shrimp brother, who was standing to the side, put down his pen. It was his first time traveling, and he was very curious about everything.
"Is it just my imagination? Why do I find the people in Linfeng County so exceptionally beautiful?"
"Maybe it's for a competition, I don't know for sure." Huali looked at Shrimp Bro, suddenly realizing that it was indeed a bit too abstract. "Little bird, why don't you take Shrimp Bro to get a makeover later?"
This is a good opportunity to let her and Tang Wanwan leave first.
Shrimp Bro nodded, "Sure, sure. Now that we're ashore, our outfits should be different. Little Bird, go ahead."
Yan Xi, who was about to make an excuse to leave, said, "...Okay."
Shrimp Brother was flattered by Yan Xi's easygoing nature; he knew Xiao Yu still cared for him!
Yan Xi lowered his eyes. There were too many things in Linfeng County that were an eyesore. If Zhan Li and Li Yuan were blind, he would immediately send them into reincarnation...
Before Yan Xi could refuse, Hua Li manipulated the compass and quickly rushed into the grove.
"Alright, it's settled then. I'll send you both the location of the house." Just as Huali sent the message, a loud shout came from nearby, "Huali!"
The three people on the compass looked up at the same time, and Tang Wanwan had already rushed over like a streak of sparks and lightning.
"Do you even know about your mistresses... ugh ugh ugh!!!"
