Chapter 117 - 117: The Old Master’s Guidance
“Sit!”
When he sat down, the old man looked at him playfully and teased,””Every time we meet, you give me a surprise. If not for the help of the Great Five Elements Heaven-Splitting Sword Formation this time, I wouldn’t have known that you had broken through to the heaven ascension realm.”
“It’s not that I want to hide my strength. As the old saying goes, if you don’t expose your wealth, you have to keep a low profile. You never know what kind of danger you’ll face, but there’s one thing.” “That’s a good idea. How old are you? Young people must have a sharp spirit.’
Zhang Ronghua smiled and didn’t reply.
Seeing him like this, she knew that he didn’t listen to her.
He changed the topic.
“Is the Crown Prince transferring you to the Scholar Hall?” “Have you heard about it?” “It’s not like it’s a secret. If I want to know, I’ll naturally know.”
“Your Highness, please!”
“The person in charge of the Scholar’s Hall is Pei Caicai. He is this old man’s in-name disciple. When you reach there, if you suffer any grievances, don’t be afraid of trouble, don’t be afraid of owing favors, just go and find him!”
“Yes!”
The sky was already dark, and darkness was falling.
“Junior should go back.””
The old man stroked his beard and smiled mockingly. With a wave of his right hand, the teapot on the coffee table disappeared and a chessboard appeared.”Accompany me for the next round.”
He cursed in his heart. Now that you’ve left, wouldn’t that girl Hong Ling find trouble with me if she came out?
“As you wish.”
He sat down again.
With the previous experience, the old master did not dare to let him hold the white stone first. Otherwise, he would still lose. He followed the rules and played rock-paper-scissors! Whoever wins will go first with the white stone.
Three times in a row, and on the third round, the old man won.
To him, such a character, to Zhang Ronghua, not to let, rock-paper-scissors is also the same, go all out, this way to win will be pleasant, to experience the taste of victory, otherwise it will be very unhappy! His impression of him would decrease, and he would be treated as an opportunist.
It was the same at the beginning of the game!
Both of their chess skills had reached the realm of near-Dao. Who asked the other to be abused so miserably? It was purely looking for trouble.
Halfway through the game.
Yang Hongling placed the food she had prepared in the lobby and came over to call them to eat. Seeing how focused they were, the white and black pieces were fighting fiercely. She did not disturb them and stood by the side to watch
quietly.
After dozens of moves, the two of them had to think for a long time for each piece they placed. In the end, the chessboard was filled with pieces again. They were evenly matched, but according to the rules of the game, the old man won by half a piece.
The old man stroked his beard and laughed heartily. “I haven’t felt so good in a long time.”
He stood up from the cushion and called out.
“Let’s go! Let’s go eat.”
Zhang Ronghua didn’t refuse. He had already eaten last time. What was the big deal in having another meal?
They entered the lobby.
There were eight dishes, one soup, and two pastries, one osmanthus cake and one millet cake. “Hong Ling’s craftsmanship isn’t bad, right?”
“Very good indeed.”
Yang Hongling handed the bowls and chopsticks to them.
“Are you busy tomorrow?” asked the old man.
“If you have something to say, please say it!”
Hongling’s talent isn’t as good as yours. If she wants to cultivate the Great Five Elements Heaven-Breaking Sword Formation, she needs to gather all the spiritual objects of the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth and refine them into her body. Only then can she cultivate. Now, she has collected four kinds of spiritual objects, but she still lacks the spiritual objects of the fire attribute. If you have nothing else to do, go with her.”
Yang Hongling lowered her head and nibbled at the rice. She looked like she didn’t care, but in fact, her heart was in her throat. She secretly watched him from the corner of her eyes.
“I’ll come over early tomorrow.” Zhang Ronghua smiled.” Hearing this, Yang Hongling’s anxious heart finally relaxed.
After dinner.
After sending him out of the Fate Academy, he returned.
“With my strength, I can obtain a Fire Attribute Spiritual Item. Why do I need his help?”
The old master glanced at her. His granddaughter was already a grown-up and knew how to save face, so he did not expose her. “With him protecting me, Grandpa will feel at ease.”
Yang Hongling didn’t say anything more and entered her room.
Looking at the moon, the deer walked over and stopped in front of him. He glanced at it and continued looking at the sky. The old man said, “”lf you want to marry my precious granddaughter, you must at least enter the Pavilion of
Heavenly Secrets!”
He returned to the Vermillion Bird House.
Zhang Ronghua stopped when he arrived at the artificial lake. He looked at the purple cat that had climbed over the wall. On its back was an ornamental fish that weighed about three pounds. It was colorful and beautiful. It could not break free from its cultivation.
He frowned.
“Where did you get it?”
Looking at the artificial lake again, the fish in it had all been eaten. Now there were eight, including the fish on its back.
At this point.
The purple cat threw the fish in and pointed at the front with its paws, as if to say, “I’ve” stolen it from the family in front.””Meow!”
The last cry seemed to be asking for credit.
Zhang Ronghua’s face darkened. He grabbed the back of its head and lifted it up.”How did you get it?”
He threw it down.
After entering the bedroom, he started to cultivate the Vast Myriad Sword
Technique and the Great Five Elements Heaven-Splitting Sword Formation. The former was about to reach the realm of skill approaching Dao. The higher the proficiency, the stronger the power of the sword formation.
Purple Cat glanced at the bedroom and raised its eyes. It curled its lips in disdain as if it was saying,” After spending so much effort, I finally managed to get it. If you want me to return it, you’ll ask me to catch fish again. Do you think I’m stupid?”
She walked into the room with cat steps and wagged her tail.
The next day.
Zhang Ronghua finished his breakfast and walked towards the Fate Academy as per yesterday’s agreement. When he arrived, the disciples at the entrance greeted him with a smile, “”Senior Brother!”
“Senior Brother?’”‘
“You’re Big Sister’s friend, so naturally you’re our Senior Brother.”
So that was the case.
He returned a smile and said,”You want to report?””
“No need! When you left yesterday, Big Sister instructed me to bring you there when you came.”
“Thank you.”
He followed him until they reached the courtyard of the old man. The disciple left and Zhang Ronghua walked in.
Yang Hongling happened to be leading two Divine Heavenly Dragon Horses over. She handed one over to him and mounted it. She wasn’t wearing a short skirt. She was wearing a pair of black boxy pants with stockings. She was wearing a white boxy shirt.
“Don’t just stand there! Hurry up.”
“Yes.” Zhang Ronghua responded and mounted his horse..
