Time soon arrived at the first day of the next month.

At first, An Zhisu was in the mood to eat and drink, and taught Ling Yunpo sword skills while he was practicing sword skills, but as time got closer, she seemed to become a little irritable.

On the morning of the first day of the new year, Ling Yunpo changed into his robe and left the room to call his senior sister.

After knocking on the door for a long time, An Zhisu refused to come out. She just said, "I'm not feeling well today," and "I won't go."

Ling Yunpo was furious: You are a cultivator, and you told me "I feel unwell today", do you think I am a fool?

He made a sword gesture with his hands, and the Thunder Sword flew out of the sword case, directly splitting the door panel into pieces, and then he strode in.

Not long after, An Zhisu, who had already dressed up, was forcibly dragged out of the room by Ling Yunpo.

Overall, with senior sister’s appearance and temperament, she doesn’t need any makeup at all.

All you need to do is to style your hair, choose the right hairpin and dress.

Before Ling Yunpo traveled through time, he was a straight man and knew nothing about this. But after all, Luo Yan had been with Miss Shi in Tiangong Workshop for a long time (this lady's clothes were different every day for a whole year), so he had some experience and knowledge in dressing up.

He used a horn comb to comb the senior sister's long hair neatly, tied it into an elegant bun at the back of her head, and then inserted a jade hairpin.

For clothes, choose a goose yellow long skirt. Although it is a dress, the cuffs are tightened to the shoulders to make it easier for arms to swing and make gestures.

The hem of the skirt is quite loose, but considering that the senior sister is wearing underwear underneath, there is no need to worry about exposing herself.

As for boots, people in this world don’t have that many styles of boots, so Ling Yunpo picked out a pair of silver silk woven cloud shoes for Senior Sister An.

After he had finished dressing her up in front of the bronze mirror, he noticed that Sister An's face and neck were all red and hot.

Ling Yunpo laughed secretly in his heart, pretending that he knew nothing, and pulled his senior sister out.

After leaving the Qingluo Peak Taoist Temple, An Zhisu had calmed down.

To be honest, my junior brother was just helping me to dress up, which couldn't be considered an inappropriate and intimate behavior.

Although the ancients used "the joy of drawing eyebrows" to describe the love between husband and wife, but I didn't draw my eyebrows! What's wrong with combing my hair and choosing clothes?

After forcing himself to convince himself, An Zhisu also summoned the Hanlie Sword and flew away with Ling Yunpo.

The two men crossed the Qinling Mountains to the north and arrived at Tianshui County, where they lowered their swords outside the city.

The Chan Sect's behavior was different from the Jie Sect's, and they were always reserved and introverted. If they flew into the city in a swaggering manner, it would be fine if they were watched by ordinary people, but being looked down upon by other fellow sects and ridiculed and mocked behind their backs would be a bigger problem.

After asking passers-by nearby, I learned that the Longxi Guan family was not in the county seat of Tianshui County, but near Guanshan to the east of the county seat.

The reason why the Guan family’s surname is “Guan” is because they have lived in Guanshan for generations.

So Ling Yunpo spent money to hire a carriage and took his senior sister eastward.

It took about half an hour before they arrived at the gate of Guan's Villa.

The villa here covers a very large area with towering walls. In the distance, going up along the Guanshan Mountain, there are layers of houses stacked up. It can be said to be truly "built on the mountain".

There were many servants at the door. They first checked the invitation respectfully when they met. After confirming the identities of Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu, they immediately welcomed them in and arranged for them to stay in guest rooms first.

The guest rooms are also extremely luxurious, with six bedrooms and two living rooms, including a bathroom. A spacious hot tub built with stones is many times more comfortable than taking a bath in a tub.

Even though Ling Yunpo had completed his marrow cleansing and no longer had any dirt or dandruff on his body, he still had the same idea as Xu Yinglian that "washing makes one healthier."

An Zhisu was not interested at all. He walked around every room and finally returned to the living room, where he sat on the armchair and closed his eyes to rest.

After Ling Yunpo adjusted himself to the bath, he changed his clothes, stood up, and went out for a walk with An Zhisu who had been waiting for a long time.

Monks have long lifespans, and sometimes it may not be appropriate to practice alone. Experiencing the various forms of life in the mortal world is also a rare experience.

In addition, Ling Yunpo first entered the Demon Locking Tower and then went to the Sanyu Treasure Ship Secret Realm. The time interval in between was relatively short and he was extremely tired - it was a good opportunity for him to take a good rest.

The two walked side by side, without holding hands, but they seemed to be in tune with each other and their pace was appropriate.

In the courtyard of Guan's Villa, there are small bridges, flowing water, clusters of flowers, and all kinds of exquisite scenery. Lingyunpo is very happy to watch, and An Zhisu is also very relaxed.

Just as the two were enjoying the scenery, a voice suddenly sounded in front of them:

"Sister An, you really came. I knew that asking Junior Brother Ling to pass on the invitation was the right thing to do."

An Zhisu's originally relaxed expression immediately turned cold.

Guan Shanyue, who came out from behind the arch, seemed unaware and just continued to smile:

"Junior Brother Ling, are you used to living here? Have you tried the stone bathing pool?"

Ling Yunpo did not respond to her words, but said with a straight face:

"I am very grateful for your hospitality."

"You're welcome." Guan Shanyue smiled and covered her mouth. "Where's Senior Sister An?"

An Zhisu stared at her for a while, and suddenly said:

"Why did you invite me?"

"What do you mean?" Guan Shanyue blinked and said, "The ancestor wants to invite a new swordsman. As the number one person under the Golden Core level in Shushan, isn't it normal for Senior Sister An to receive an invitation?"

"For the Guan family, isn't it you who has the final say in judging the new kendo talents below the Jindan level?" An Zhisu asked coldly.

"Sister An, are you questioning my judgment, or are you unworthy?" Guan Shanyue narrowed his eyes.

"You know I never accept invitations of this kind."

"But this time with Junior Brother Ling here, you will definitely accept it."

An Zhisu was slightly startled when he heard this, and then a murderous aura was released:

"I warn you, don't try to target my junior brother..."

"Senior Sister An, you're joking." Facing the sharp murderous intent coming towards him, Guan Shanyue just treated it as a spring breeze and said with a smile, "It is indeed me who will judge which other foundation-building cultivators meet the invitation conditions, but the names of the two of you were decided by the ancestor himself."

Ling Yunpo raised his eyebrows and looked at An Zhisu in surprise.

"The Grand Ancestor appointed us?" Seeing that his senior sister was also confused, Ling Yunpo asked in a deep voice, "My senior sister and I are just ordinary people. How did we catch the attention of your Grand Ancestor?"

"In the Shushan Competition, the first and second place can be considered ordinary people?" Guan Shanyue was still smiling.

"My senior sister and I are the first and second in command, and we haven't even achieved the golden elixir yet. How can we be worthy of the immortal's concern?" Ling Yunpo said coldly, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate for Senior Sister Guan to fool around here."

"Don't worry, Junior Brother Ling. I have no intention of fooling you." Guan Shanyue put away his smile and said seriously, "The reason why the ancestor specifically wants to see you is not for anything else, but because you are Su Jian's disciples."

…

Even An Zhisu, who had originally been alert, couldn't help but be moved at this moment.

If Guan Shanyue mentioned any other reason, no matter how fantastic it sounded, she would never believe it at all.

But Guan Shanyue said it was "Su Jian's fault", and she couldn't refute it from the bottom of her heart.

Because Master... was truly gifted in swordsmanship back then, a rare talent in the world. Not only was he highly regarded by the Long-Eyebrowed Immortal of Mount Shu, he was also well-known in the outside world.

It is perfectly normal for the Guan family’s ancestor to know the master.
