Chapter 561: Coquettish Girl, Seven Emotions Sect, Maiden Sage Seal
“A loud explosion was heard, and several sky-prides were blasted off their feet by an astonishingly colossal power. The crowd turned their gaze to the source, only to see Chu Kuangren standing in the middle of the air. He was glowing with dazzling flashes of brilliance and looked just like a Supreme Godly Monarch. At that moment, everyone at the scene was scared witless. their hearts were pounding hard, and their mouths were agape. ”
“Who could’ve thought that this Chu Kuangren would not only have the Nine Exquisite Orifices Sword Heart but also the Infallible Tormented Physique and the Transcendent Coalescence Physique…”
Inside a restaurant, a storyteller was narrating Chu Kuangren’s marvelous adventures in a vivid manner.
The people below the stage listened on with gusto, and there was a sense of reverence in their eyes.
To take on five outlawed sky-prides alone and then prevailing was something they dared not even think about.
“Are you sure you’re not exaggerating this?”
It was only normal that some people would question the validity of this story. After all, this version of Chu Kuangren that they were hearing was just way too overpowered.
“As a storyteller, I would never fabricate such lies. Numerous cultivators outside the Enchanted Forest Realm have witnessed Chu Kuangren’s strength with their own eyes. There’s just no way I can create a fake story out of this. ”
The old man, who had been doing the storytelling, smiled and said.
There were some female cultivators amongst the audience. One of them asked curiously, “I heard Chu Kuangren is a very handsome man, and less than a handful of people on the earth can match his looks. Is this true?”
The old man laughed and replied, “Having met Chu Kuangren in person before, I can confidently tell you that Chu Kuangren’s appearance is not just unparalleled. His looks could be better described as divine. His facial features are exquisite, his eyebrows gorgeously curved, his eyes dazzling, his demeanor extraordinary, just like an immortal from heaven.”
“Come on, that’s too unrealistic. How can someone look so handsome?”
“As a faithful storyteller, I have never once lied to my beloved audience. You may go out there and ask around, and you’ll know that what I said is the absolute truth. All cultivators who had met Chu Kuangren would praise his good looks, and female cultivators who’d come across him could not stop thinking about him after an encounter.” The old man caressed his beard and lamented.
After hearing his description of Chu Kuangren, many female cultivators had a yearning look in their eyes. “Ah, if only they had the good fortune to meet such a character in real life.”
At one inconspicuous corner amongst the crowd, someone was leisurely sipping on some wine.
This guy had a faint layer of the spiritual veil covering his face, so no one could see him clearly. He found himself chuckling from time to time as he listened to the old man’s storytelling.
Although his behavior was kind of odd, nobody really paid him any attention.
This man was none other than Chu Kuangren.
After he left the Enchanted Forest Realm, he went on to look for a place to settle down for the time being. He wanted time to cultivate the Wood Elemental Leyline Essence and the White Spiritual Divine Fruit.
Before he knew it, he arrived at this place, with which he walked inside to have some wine. Coincidentally, he bumped into someone who was recounting his glorious achievements. As such, he decided to stay for a while to listen to it.
“Hmph, I’ll never buy those ridiculous remarks you made about this whoever Chu Kuangren.”
Just then, a cold scoff was heard from the crowd.
A lady in red, by a window, said with a disgusted look on her face.
This lady was dressed in a bright red dress. Her face looked delicate, her skin was as smooth as a baby’s, her figure was rather curvaceous, and her jet-black hair was at waist length.
“Ah, the dame of Seven Emotions Sect has come down to have a drink. Apologies for our lack of service.”
The manager of the inn hurried to her side with an apologetic look.
Many people were startled upon hearing his words.
Seven Emotions Sect was one of the few archaic ancient orthodoxies in Emperor Road.
“The wine here is not bad, but it’s getting a little annoying that that storyteller keeps babbling about Chu Kuangren’s greatness.”
The girl in red furrowed her eyebrows and said.
Throughout the day, she had heard Chu Kuangren’s name multiple times on her way from her orthodoxy to this place, and it made her feel rather irritated.
It was just another man. What is there to marvel about?
“Yes, yes. You’re right. I’ll ask that old chap to leave right away.”
“Tsk tsk. Everything I said earlier was true. Apparently, even Seven Emotions Sect’s Maiden Sage has been enchanted by this Chu Kuangren.”
The girl in red raised an eyebrow when she heard that. “Hold up, what did you just say?”
“I said, even the Seven Emotions Sect’s Maiden Sage has been enchanted by Chu Kuangren.”
“Nonsense! My Senior Sister cultivates the Unruffled Emotions Dao, so there’s no way a man in this world can move her heart. You better be careful with your words, or I might rip your tongue out.”
The old man hurriedly shut his mouth with his own hand and then whimpered innocently, “But… it’s what everybody in the outside world is saying…”
“Hmph, what a bunch of ignorant idiots who believe whatever they hear, tarnishing my Senior Sister’s reputation. Next time, if you dare mention this heresy again on Seven Emotions Sect’s territory, you better look out, or I might give you a death slap!” That girl in red glared at the storyteller and said.
“Alright, alright. I won’t do it again next time. ”
“As for you guys, if I catch you discussing this matter again, prepare to bear the consequences yourself!”
“Understood.”
The people immediately agreed.
“D*mn you people. You guys are really getting on my nerves. How dare you paint such a bad reputation on my innocent Senior Sister. Chu Kuangren… he better wish I don’t bump into him, or I’ll personally strangle him to death!”
The girl in red was so agitated that she furiously gulped down several mouthfuls of wine.
Not far away, Chu Kuangren took a sip of wine depressingly. He felt that he got swept into the situation.
Nothing had ever happened between him and Leng Ningyu. Yet because of what the folks said, he was now maliciously targeted by this lady in red.
“But who knew that Seven Emotions Sect was just nearby? If they indeed have a connection to those few scrolls, maybe it’s worthwhile to pay them a visit.”
Chu Kuangren mumbled to himself.
Leng Ningyu once mentioned that his Raging Gods Fist was very similar to several Emperor Techniques back at Seven Emotions Sect. In fact, he had obtained this Raging Gods Fist from a scroll.
He suspected that there was a similar scroll in Seven Emotions Sect.
As such, this would be worth his attention.
“No harm to go there and have a look. Who knows if I would find a surprise there.”
Chu Kuangren thought to himself. With that, he decided to delay his plans to cultivate the White Spiritual Divine Fruit and Wood Elemental Leyline Essence.
“Waiter, the bill, please.”
After paying for his drinks, Chu Kuangren turned around and left the restaurant.
Seven Emotions Sect was located within a mountain range.
At one end of the mountain range, there was a towering mountain peak that reached the clouds. It looked isolated yet magnificent on its own, and it was very conspicuous amongst the thousand other mountains.
This mountaintop was where Seven Emotions Sect was situated, called the Seven Emotions Peak.
Very soon, Chu Kuangren arrived at the base of the mountain.
Before he could step foot into the place, several flashes of light swooped down before him, which turned out to be a few disciples.
“Stop right there. From this point on, it is the territory of the Seven Emotions Sect. No intruders are allowed.”
The few disciples bore hostile looks in their eyes as they stared at Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren unmasked the spiritual veil on his face and then took out the jade order that was given to him by Leng Ningyu the other day. He said, “I’m here for a visit under Sister Leng’s invitation.”
“Sister Leng?”
One of the disciples was stunned for a moment before accepting the jade order from Chu Kuangren’s hand. He looked visibly shaken. “This is a Maiden Sage Order?”
The Maiden Sage Order is owned exclusively by all the Maiden Sages in Seven Emotions Sect. It was a symbol of their authority.
Of course, this jade token had no use for an outsider.
Otherwise, Leng Ningyu would not have given it to Chu Kuangren that easily.
However, what struck the disciples more was how Leng Ningyu’s Maiden Sage Seal ended up in Chu Kuangren’s hands. What was his relationship with the Maiden Sage?
