As the Universe Turns - Chapter 41

Chapter 41 Junior Sister
The voice sounded a little strange. Yi Chen flicked his fingers, and a finger force shot towards the direction of the voice. With a “bang”, it hit a bamboo tree, causing bamboo leaves to rustle down.

As the bamboo leaves flew, another girl floated down from the top of the bamboo. That girl was dressed in Nichang feathers and was as beautiful as Yun Xian, but it was Little Nichang.

“It’s you!”

“Xiao Yichen, your master told you to stand up, but you’re dozing here, ho! I’m going to tell your master to go!”

Nichang smiled and walked over. Yi Chen frowned, “Hey, this is Purple Night Peak. What are you doing here? Be careful that my master finds out.”

“Hmph.” Nichang snorted and said, “Your master is with my master on Skyjade Peak.” As he spoke, he gently broke off a bamboo stick from the bamboo.

“Oh.” Yi Chen looked at her and muttered softly, “Your master must have spoken ill of me in front of my master …”

“My master is not as stingy as you!”

“Tsk, it was originally.”

“How dare you say that? Look at the sword!”

Nichang turned his wrist and used the bamboo sword as his sword. The sword was like a gust of wind. Yi Chen hurriedly dodged with the Ling Xian Step, but Nichang’s cultivation was far above his. Moreover, he also learned the [Weak Water Three Thousand] technique well. He didn’t even need to use his full strength to force him to retreat step by step.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yi Chen quickly folded a bamboo stick and used the “33 Layered Jade Flute Sword Technique” to fight against her. Both of their sword techniques were extremely fierce. Two figures flew around in the bamboo forest, causing bamboo leaves to rustle down from the sky.

After fighting for a while, Yi Chen was already panting. He quickly stopped and said, “Alright, alright, stop fighting. If you continue fighting, Master will scold me again.”

“Humph!” Nichang floated back to the ground, but seeing that her face was not red and her heart was not beating, she still looked very leisurely. She threw the bamboo stick in her hand and clapped her hands, “What? Admit defeat? Alright, call me Senior Sister, and I’ll let you go.”

“Chi.” Yi Chen tilted his head. Although he was not convinced, he knew that although his strength was deep, this girl’s strength was also deep. However, the gap between her cultivation was hard to bridge. At this moment, she was panting, but she was fine. If she continued to fight, she would definitely lose.

“What? If you’re not convinced, then come again.”

As Nichang said that he was going to break the bamboo stick again, Yi Chen shook his hand and said, “No, no, you should go back quickly. If Master sees you, I will be scolded again.”

Nichang did not have the slightest intention of leaving. He stretched his arms and smiled, “I heard that you have four scenes in Purple Night Peak. Hey, why don’t you take me there?”

“But I still want …”

“What? You’re not going?”

Nichang leaned in front of him and looked at him in the blink of an eye. Yi Chen smelled the fragrance coming from her body and felt his heart ripple. Now that he was at the age of Zhimu Shaoai, he was always alone in Purple Night Peak. No matter how good the scenery was, he was tired of it. Now that he had a little junior sister by his side, it would be so interesting.

“Huh? Are you going?”

Nichang got closer, and Yi Chen retreated. He thought to himself that although Master was usually strict, she would not really punish him. In the blink of an eye, he became interested. He chuckled and said, “Let’s go.”

The two of them went to Tianshui Creek and then to Cloud Peak. Playing was still in the ascendant. Nichang smiled and said, “I heard that the most beautiful place in Purple Night Peak is Bipo Jade Terrace. There is a Heavenly Immortal Tree there …”

Seeing her yearning expression, Yi Chen hesitated. That was where Master cultivated. Normally, he wouldn’t dare to go anywhere. Nichang turned around and smiled at him. “Let’s go to the Bipo Jade Stage.”

Seeing that her smile was innocent and beautiful like a flower, Yi Chen could not refuse, so he nodded and said, “Yes.”

Moments later, the two arrived at the Bipo Jade Platform. Jade ripples sparkled on the surface of the water. The grass in the middle was covered with flower petals. The immortal tree went straight into the clouds, as if it had reached the Immortal Dimension. The wind blew by, and flower petals floated down like a dream.

“Wow, this place is so beautiful!”

Nichang unfolded his footwork and gently tapped the water like a fairy. He came to the grass and Yi Chen followed. The petals on the tree fell on their shoulders and hair. It was as beautiful as a poem.

The fragrance of the flowers was enchanting. Nichang spread his arms and ran under the tree for a while. He lay gently on the soft grass and felt indescribably comfortable. He looked at Xiao Yi Chen who was dumbfounded and patted the grass beside him. He smiled and said, “Come here.”

Only then did Yi Chen regain his senses. He slowly walked over and lay down. He felt refreshed. No wonder Master chose to cultivate here. There was indeed immortal energy here.

“Hey, why aren’t you talking anymore?”

Nichang looked at him with a pair of beautiful eyes. Yi Chen turned his head and looked at her. The moment he looked at her, he felt as if he was in a dream, especially the petals that slowly fell from between the two of them.

“The Heavenly Sect Martial Arts Association is coming in three years. Are you going too?”

Nichang suddenly said. Only then did Yi Chen put away his wild thoughts and said seriously, “Master is only a disciple of mine. Of course I’m going.”

“Ah!” Nichang put his hands on his long hair and looked at the petals slowly falling from the sky. “I don’t have the aura you have. There are so many Senior Sisters on Skyjade Peak. I have to win one by one to be qualified to participate in the Heavenly Gate Martial Meeting. Those Senior Sisters have higher qualifications than me, especially Senior Sister Qianxue. Thinking about it is terrifying …”

At the end of his sentence, he turned to look at Yi Chen and said, “Of course you are. You are Martial Uncle Ling Yin’s only disciple. Anyway, no one can compete with you. No matter how low your cultivation level is, you can go.”

Yi Chen couldn’t help but frown. This was strange. Could it be that there was no one else on Purple Night Peak, so he was able to go to Heavenly Sect to learn martial arts? Chi, don’t look down on yourself.

“By the way, do you remember the person who came to Nichang last time?” Said Cangfeng Valley.

“Liu Chengfeng” Yi Chen frowned slightly. He recalled what happened in the Heavenly Lake Square last time and asked, “What happened to him?”

Nichang sat up straight and said seriously, “I heard Master say that this person is Cangfeng Valley’s most talented disciple in recent years. He will definitely remember your enmity. Even I will have to be careful when the time comes. If even I lose, I will have to rely on Senior Brother Xia Guyun and Senior Sister Leng Qianxue. Have you met Senior Brother Xia Guyun?” “He is Venerable Li Yuan’s personal disciple. His dao techniques are amazing …”

“Oh …”

Yi Chen found it boring. Nichang said, “You must be careful. You must not run into this person at that time. He must hold a grudge against him for what happened last time, so he will definitely wait for an opportunity to take revenge. Just like when you attacked Ren Jian, Cangfeng Valley is good at controlling swords. You simply cannot stop his’frost fall ‘…”

“Oh.”

Yi Chen felt that it was boring. Could it be that in the eyes of this little junior sister, he was really so weak? He curled his lips and said, “You entered the sect late. You are a junior sister. Is it really good to taunt senior brother like this?”

“No, no, no. I’m Senior Sister. It’s only natural for Senior Sister to bully Junior Brother.”

“Junior Sister.”

“Senior Sister.”

After arguing for a while, Yi Chen shook his head and smiled. “Oh right, I heard that you came from the Heavenly Gate?”

‘”Yes, but” Nichang thought for a moment, then lay down and slowly said, “But how can I say that? I’m not from the Heavenly Sect. Sigh, I can’t say for a while.”

“Oh.”

Yi Chen no longer asked. The two of them lay quietly under the tree and looked at the petals floating in the sky. Yi Chen suddenly said, “I’ve often heard Master say that the 33 Heavens are the highest in the Heavens. I wonder if this tree can go up there …”

“The Immortal Dimension …”

Nichang was also dazed as she looked at the high sky. At this moment, she seemed to be a Fairy who had moved the mortal heart and was demoted to the mortal world.

The fragrance of flowers refreshed one’s heart. The two of them unknowingly fell asleep. It was unknown how long had passed. Perhaps it was because the jade platform was too cold. The two of them unconsciously leaned against each other gradually. Their bodies were covered with flower petals. Just like that, until dusk fell.

“Why are you here?”

A woman’s voice suddenly sounded. Yi Chen suddenly woke up from his shock. Seeing that Master had come at an unknown time, he was shocked. He hurriedly stood up and said, “Master … Master.”

Nichang woke up as well. He quickly stood up and cut his long hair on his shoulders. He lowered his head and said, “Ling … Martial Uncle Ling Yin.”

Ling Yin looked at Qianyu Nichang and said, “It’s getting late. You can go back so your master doesn’t worry.”

‘”Mm, disciple, farewell” Nichang looked at Yi Chen again before he started his footwork and left. Seeing her leave, Yi Chen turned around and grinned, “Master, you’re back!”

“Yes.” Ling Yin nodded slightly and did not ask why he did not stand at the Purple Bamboo Forest. He only said, “Go back. Remember to go to Jade Peak three days later. Venerable Heavenly Secrets has a lot of books, which is beneficial to your cultivation.”

“Yes, I know!”

Seeing that she wasn’t angry, Yi Chen felt a little relieved. Three days later, when they arrived at Jade Peak, the disciples of the other peaks also arrived. Under the lead of an Elder of Jade Peak, they arrived in front of a large hall. A clear male voice came from within the hall, “There is a golden room in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book. Elder, take them to the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion.”

After a while, under the guidance of the elders, all the disciples arrived at a three-story pavilion. The pavilion looked ordinary outside, but there was something else inside. However, rows of bookshelves were filled with books. Some were Taoist books, some were various Dao techniques, and some were Xuangong Heart Techniques.

Looking at the dazzling bookshelves, the disciples didn’t know how to choose. However, Yi Chen ran to an uninhabited corner. This corner seemed to have been empty for a long time, and many bookshelves were already covered in dust. However, this aroused his curiosity. Even though Empyrean Heavenly Secrets had a large collection of books, could it be that they were all kept in such a high pavilion?

The bookshelf at the top attracted his attention. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Yi Chen gently jumped up and took out a secret manual at the edge. However, this secret manual seemed to be different from other secret manuals. There was actually a seal on it that could not be opened.

“Eh? Strange.”

The more curious Yi Chen was, the more he looked around. He unsealed the seal with his profound strength and slowly flipped through it. Unknowingly, he forgot the time. The words on the secret manual seemed to drill into his mind one by one, and not even an elder noticed when he walked to his side.

“This … why is this book here!”

The elder suddenly let out a shocked sound. Yi Chen was shocked. He closed the secret manual in his hand and turned his head. “Elder … what happened to the elder?”

The elder looked at the dusty secret manual in his hand and his expression became serious. “You can’t take this book with you. Give it to me.”
