Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Exclusive Interview_1

"Little Yi, come here for a moment."

After sending off Wen Yulong, Chu Liang went to find Liu Xiaoyu with a smile on his face.

"Hmm?" The young girl blinked, "Big Brother Chu Liang, what’s up?"

That’s how it was on Silver Sword Peak right now, she called you elder sister, she called me elder brother, I called you Master...the three of us were each in our own world.

"Like last time, I’m asking for a blessing." Chu Liang said.

Liu Xiaoyu tilted her head, finding Chu Liang a bit strange. Why did he ask her to bless him every other day, was he asking for 365 blessings a year?

But the kind-hearted girl still closed her eyes and silently wished for his wishes to come true in her heart.

Watching her close her eyes, Chu Liang also began to quiet his mind to reward himself.

His Divine Sense entered the White Pagoda space, as soon as he entered he saw a sight drastically different from the usual in the White Pagoda. Because one imprint could occupy one cage, now the White Pagoda was filled with Poisonous Bees, lined up as far as the eye could see.

The most conspicuous of these was the larger shadow image of the Bee Queen.

Despite being derived from the same Demonic Creature source, if the strength was significantly higher, the rewards would also be different.

Chu Liang first came to the cage outside the Bee Queen’s shadow image and pressed the "Refining" button without hesitation.

Boom——

There was a flash of light.

A white spherical object, like an egg, floated out. Chu Liang caught it and found out it was a Mysterious Beast Egg.

"Spirit Beast?"

This surprised Chu Liang quite a bit.

This White Pagoda... can even produce life-bearing objects?

The so-called Spirit Beast is actually the "monster" in "Demons and Monsters". It’s a creature that has great power without the need to transform into human form. The definitions of Spirit Beasts and Demon Beasts that have not yet transformed into human form are always somewhat blurred, and they are often confused with each other.

There are quite a few ordinary Spirit Pets on Shu Mountain, but "Innate Spirit Pets" are relatively rare.

One needs to obtain a living Spirit Beast Egg, then hatch it themselves, and when the Spirit Beast hatches, it will immediately recognize its owner. Innate Spirit Pets, whether in terms of temperament or intimacy, are generally better than acquired Spirit Pets.

Whether this Spirit Pet is powerful or not is another question, at least for Chu Liang, it is quite novel. Perhaps he doesn’t need this egg, but he wouldn’t mind having one more.

What kind of pet does he want?

The image of Senior Sister Jiang flashed across his mind, Chu Liang quickly shook his head, ridding himself of those impractical thoughts.

Lifting his head, he casually pressed the "Refining" button next to him.

Boom——

A Poisonous Bee’s shadow image was refined, and another jar of fruit tea appeared in his hand.

However, Chu Liang noticed that the color of this jar of fruit tea was slightly different. He took another sip, indeed, the taste of this jar of fruit tea was different from the previous ones!

New flavor?

Chu Liang pressed a few more times in succession and found that he had cracked several jars of fruit tea with different colors and different tastes.

But they were clearly the same before...

Chu Liang pondered, is this the charm of the lucky koi? With her blessing, can he crack new flavors?

"Can I open my eyes now?" Liu Xiaoyu asked softly.

The young girl heard Chu Liang closing his eyes and then felt his breathing become rapid, which seemed a bit strange.

"Yes, I’ll treat you to something delicious later." Chu Liang quickly thanked her and then slipped back into his room.

Returning to his wooden house, Chu Liang took out the tiny white beast egg. Its shell was crystal clear, and the golden substance inside it could be seen.

He tried to slowly infuse it with his True Qi, and immediately a warm feeling came, it seemed there was a tiny throbbing inside, as if it was responding to his gift.

Yikes...

No wonder Innate Spirit Pets have a higher level of intimacy, it seems to already have spirituality now. If he constantly incubated it with his True Qi, it would probably naturally regard him as its mother, right?

Wouldn’t he then be a male mother...

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a strange laughter from outside: "Hey hey hey!"

Just hearing it, he knew who it was.

Chu Liang put away the beast egg and went out to see an excited Lin Bei standing outside.

"Chu Liang! We’re going to make a name for ourselves!" Lin Bei said in an excited voice, "Someone from Tianshu Pavilion is looking for us!"

...

Whenever a major event occurs, as long as conditions permit, the disciples of Tianshu Pavilion will conduct an interview with the relevant party, so the news on the Seven Star Mansion Report can be more accurate.

However, this kind of conversation doesn’t happen every time, like the last time Chu Liang made it onto the Seven Star Mansion Report with Yun Chaoxian, no one came to ask him anything. This time, probably because the incident at the Southern Border City was bigger, there was an interview.

All along the way, Lin Bei was animated and cheerful.

For most disciples of the Immortal Sect, being featured in the Seven Star Mansion Report was indeed a joyous occasion.

But Chu Liang was very calm.

He was somewhat skeptical about the relationship between Tianshu Pavilion and his master, and was a little worried.

They soon crossed the Cloud Sea, arrived at Tontian Peak, and entered a quiet room in one of the many pavilions. The representatives from Tianshu Pavilion were waiting there.

There was another person there as well.

Seeing her, both Chu Liang and Lin Bei were somewhat surprised.

A disciple from Tianshu Pavilion was sitting there. She was petite and cute, with a pair of ponytails, a youthful face that made her look like she was sixteen or seventeen. She squinted her eyes when she smiled, which was rather adorable.

She was chatting affectionately with a woman next to her. The woman was dressed in a body-hugging long skirt, a light veil short jacket, hair casually tied in a bun with long strands cascading down. She exuded greatly of gentle elegance.

It was Jiang Yuebai.

"The two young heroes of Shu Mountain are here." The disciple from Tianshu Pavilion stood up, introduced herself first: "I am Zhang Xiaohan, a disciple from the Wind Catcher Hall of Tianshu Pavilion. I was specifically assigned to inquire about your visit to Southern Border City. As I am a newcomer to the Wind Catcher Hall and don’t have much experience, I hope for your understanding and guidance."

"Of course, of course." After introducing themselves, Lin Bei patted his chest, "We disciples of Shu Mountain are always benevolent. We hope that Junior Sister Zhang will be lenient towards us when writing the report, and speak highly of us."

Wind Catcher Hall was in charge of editing the Seven Star Mansion Report for the Tianshu Pavilion. Every month, the Seven Star Mansion Report came from them. The disciples under its charge often traveled all over Nine States to gather news and conduct interviews, obtaining countless information.

If there were a list of most hated people in the Immortal Cultivation World, Zhou Yijian, the Hall Master of the Wind Catcher Hall, would certainly top that list. Over the past decades, countless people, both anonymous and named, harbored ill will towards him.

Chu Liang looked at Jiang Yuebai, wondering how she ended up here.

Jiang Yuebai, however, just smiled back at him.

Zhang Xiaohan seemed to notice his gaze, so she sat down, took Jiang Yuebai’s hand, and said, "I knew Sister Jiang beforehand. It happened that she had something to discuss with me as well, so I invited her to come along. You won’t be nervous about her being here, will you?"

"Being nervous is inevitable..." Lin Bei said, "Senior Sister Jiang is the goddess of our Shu Mountain. For us junior disciples, it’s usually difficult to even get a glimpse of her..."

As he spoke, he took a glance at Chu Liang sitting next to him.

He saw that Chu Liang had already sat down gracefully, calmly looking at Jiang Yuebai.

Damn, he’s so natural!

Lin Bei cursed inwardly.

Jiang Yuebai gave Zhang Xiaohan a glance and said softly, "You should start now, ask them their questions first. My presence shouldn’t be a bother, should it?"

"How could it be..." Zhang Xiaohan laughed, then turned to the two to start questioning, "Firstly, I want to ask, what was your purpose in going to Southern Border City?"

"Of course, it’s because we had a task to exterminate demons." Lin Bei declared proudly, "You know, we Shu Mountain disciples always prioritize battling the demons and maintaining Dao as our duty."

"But according to our investigation, the two of you completed the demon-slaying task quite quickly. But then you stayed in Southern Border City for a few more days. Was it to wait for Miss Xue’s tour at Nanyin Square?" Zhang Xiaohan asked.

It seemed that this girl had already been to Southern Border City and knew quite a lot.

Just as Chu Liang was about to nod, he heard Lin Bei shaking his head and saying, "Absolutely not, at that time, we were assisting a lost young girl who had lost her sister. And in the process of helping her find her relatives, we got to know about the evil conspiracy of the Marquis Ding Shan Residence."

"Aww, both of you really do have a chivalrous heart." Zhang Xiaohan laughed and praised them before asking, "But I heard that both of you had a lot of contact with Miss Xue. The word in Southern Border City was that you fell out with Young Marquis because you were both vying for Miss Xue and became jealous..."

Lin Bei was startled, "Is that a thing?"

Chu Liang waved his hands, "Absolutely not!"

Across the table, Jiang Yuebai showed a subtle smile.

Zhang Xiaohan’s gaze shifted between the faces of the two men and said, "I heard a servant from the villa say that a handsome young hero did come to talk to Miss Xue. They closed the door to have a heart-to-heart talk and play the piano..."

Lin Bei was startled again, "I didn’t!"

Who would think it was you... Chu Liang couldn’t help but snort.

He also felt somewhat helpless. What are these things that this disciple from Tianshu Pavilion inquiring about? Why not ask about the process and thoughts during the fight against evil, why always focus on this kind of gossip news?

And... in front of Senior Sister Jiang, too.

Feeling all the eyes on him, Chu Liang knew that he couldn’t dodge this one. He could only say softly, "Yes, I did go to listen to the piano playing of Miss Xue, but there was nothing more than that, no heart-to-heart talks... Don’t listen to gossip."

"Oh?" Zhang Xiaohan’s eyes lit up, seemingly catching on something, "The two of you closed the door just to play the piano? No heart-to-heart talk?"

"Yes." Chu Liang nodded.

"So, Warrior Chu could capture what Miss Xue was thinking from her piano playing, without the need for words..." Zhang Xiaohan murmured, "In the resonance of the piano, you found a kindred spirit..."

"Absolutely not..." Hearing her making things up, Chu Liang hurriedly stopped her: "Miss Xue only played the piano for me once, just that one time, don’t make things up."

"Nonsense!" Lin Bei refuted from the side, "She played the piano for you alone several times!"

"That last time was to save my life..." Chu Liang explained.

"Oh?" Zhang Xiaohan seemed to have caught something again, she asked excitedly, "Miss Xue saved Warrior Chu’s life? This... it’s a great kindness from a beautiful woman."

Wait a minute.

That’s not how you use that phrase, right?!

Chu Liang had a cold sweat on his face and was thinking about how to explain.

But he saw Jiang Yuebai sitting across from him, her face as beautiful as jade, her eyes filled with a tender smile...
