Chapter 87: Orchid hall

Translated and Edited by: La0o9

“In the past, when the Saint was still young, after her sect was destroyed, the Saint was chased by her enemies. At the time, only Xiuxiu knew where the Saint was”

“Why does Xiuxiu knows?” Gu Qing Shan asked, noticing this matter to be very serious.

“Because Xiuxiu was the sect master’s daughter, the one that personally helped the Saint escaped” white goose answered.

Gu Qing Shan was surprised.

“Even after she was caught, she never said a single thing about where the Saint was”

“Even after she got all 5 senses stolen from her, imprisoned inside a Spirit Beast Bag, spending every second struggling to breath, she still didn’t say anything” the white goose had a look of sorrow as he explained.

Gu Qing Shan praised her: “She’s really a good child”

The white goose continued: “When the Saint had finally killed her enemy and saved her from the Spirit Beast Bag, it has already been 5 years”

Gu Qing Shan was shocked: “She withstood such torture for 5 whole years?”

A normal person wouldn’t be able to stand even 10 minutes of such pain, yet an 8 years old child had to silently take it for years on end.

Gu Qing Shan unconsciously held a feeling of respect for her.

“That’s right, at the time both her soul and body were already on the verge of collapse” the white goose lowered his head as he spoke: “The Saint had to spent so much effort, healing her bit by bit to finally get her back”

“As the timeflow inside the Spirit Beast Bag was frozen, when she was saved she was still only 7 years old”

“No one have had to suffer such torture in the entire cultivation world before, so the only choice was to let her keep being 7 years old until both her body and soul are fully healed”

Gu Qing Shan was speechless, then said: “Rest a.s.sured, since she’s my junior sister, I will do my best to take care of her”

When the goose looked at Gu Qing Shan, he nodded with determination.

“Then that’s good, we here don’t have many other rules, just that we all take care of each other and cultivate ourselves, that’s already fulfilling s.h.i.+fu’s biggest wish” the white goose said

If any other sects were to hear that Bai Hua Fairy’s sect was founded with such a pure wish, not many would believe.

But Gu Qing Shan, having been through today with them, could honestly believe it.

He felt a sense of warmth in his heart.

“Bai Hua Fairy’s cultivation is higher than any other, but she really doesn’t mind managing her sect as much” Gu Qing Shan silently thought, “this isn’t like a cultivation sect at all, more like she’s building a home…”

“Come! Let’s go see your home from now on!” the white goose flapped his wings and flew.

“Yes!”

Since Gu Qing Shan still can’t fly yet, he can only glide after the white goose.

They went deep into Bai Hua Palace, pa.s.sing many buildings and finally arrived at a large building.

On its name plate were two large words:

“Orchid Hall”

As Gu Qing Shan saw those two words, he couldn’t help but turned and asked the white goose: “This is where I’ll live?”

“That’s right” The white goose nodded.

Gu Qing Shan lightly frowned.

Isn’t that name a bit too girly for where I’ll live?

“Can I change the name?” he asked.

“You can’t, the Saint herself wrote that name so why would you need to change it” the white goose sounds a bit annoyed.

Gu Qing Shan could only give up.

Then he remembered and asked: “What’s second brother’s place called?”

The white goose answered: “Cherry Blossom Palace”

Gu Qing Shan felt there really was fairness in the world.

A person and a goose walked into the Hall.

As Gu Qing Shan extends his sight forward ———he really was “extending his sight”, as the interior of the hall was quite large, about as big as two football fields.

“This is really my place?” Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but ask again.

This place is big enough to hold a concert.

The white goose answered: “That’s right, your place”

“Just for me?” Gu Qing Shan again.

“Just for you” the white goose answered.

“For you”

“-or you“

“you”

“ou”

“uuu…”

The sound echoed across the entire hall.

Gu Qing Shan: “…”

White goose: “…”

“Ehem” the white goose was a bit embarra.s.sed and explained: “Before, when it was built, the Saint thought that the bigger she built everything, the easier it would be to make others feel a sense of respect”

“…Truly it will make others feel a sense of respect” Gu Qing Shan reluctantly said.

“Rest up, at night we’ll all have dinner together, to congratulate you joining our sect”

As he said that, the white goose turned around and flew away.

Gu Qing Shan just stood there for a while at the door before entering Orchid Hall.

He walked around the entire hall once.

After only circling it once, he already feel his body warmed up and a bit of sweat on his back.

It’s like he had just done some exercise.

Orchid Hall…

Ok, at least it’s big enough,

Gu Qing Shan convinced himself.

In a corner of the hall, lots of cultivation resources are neatly left there.

Gu Qing Shan picked up one of the pill bottles, opened and smelled it.

The excess spirit energy went into his nose, making the entire 30.000 pores on his body felt alive.

Such excellent pills!

Gu Qing Shan silently praised it, then went around to check the rest.

After all is said and done, the treatment in Bai Hua Palace really is without equal, everything he gets is first-rate, and whatever he wants to get are all top-notch.

You could see that Bai Hua Fairy treats her disciple very dearly.

Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then took out a spirit thread cus.h.i.+on, randomly placed it on the air in the hall and sat on it.

Then he closed his eyes and started meditating.

Night falls.

Cherry Blossom Palace.

Two male, one female and a goose was sitting together.

The table was full of fantastic dishes and drinks, still warm to the touch.

Qin Xiao Lou pridefully said: “Help yourself, all of these are my best signature dishes, be careful with your tongue”

As he saw the goose glared at him, he reluctantly: “Fine, then let our first brother speak first”

The white goose cleared his throat, speaking seriously: “Today we welcome Qing Shan and Xiuxiu into our sect. From now on, I hope we can become like true brothers and sisters while living together”

Xiuxiu softly asked: “s.h.i.+fu isn’t coming?”

The white goose said: “s.h.i.+fu is a Saint, she’s always busy with something, so we can just do this kind of celebration on our own and not disturb her”

But you’re already here.

Gu Qing Shan rolled his eyes.

Xiuxiu was a bit disappointed.

Qin Xiao Lou glanced at her and said: “Junior sister Xiuxiu, from tomorrow onwards, s.h.i.+fu will be teaching you cultivation every day, so tonight will be the only night happy night that you get to escape her evil grasp you know”

Then he used chopsticks to grab and put a drumstick in Xiuxiu’s bowl, saying: “Here, I marinated this chicken drumstick for very long, guaranteed you’ll like it”

Xiuxiu smelled it, then happily said: “Then I won’t hesitate”

The white goose jumped up, stood on Qin Xiao Lou’s shoulder and used his wings to hit him while angrily saying: “Evil grasp! What do you mean evil grasp! Come on, say it! How dare you talk about s.h.i.+fu like that”

“First brother please spare me; I’ve prepared for you a lot of wine you know!” Qin Xiao Lou begged to be forgiven.

“Hmph, then why haven’t you brought them out yet?” As the white goose hear that, it flew back to its seat.

Qin Xiao Lou fixed his hair in annoyance, then tapped his Inventory Bag and took out more than a dozen different bottles.

“Qing Shan, come, taste these drinks that I brewed myself” he called out, ignoring the white goose.

“Yes” as Gu Qing Shan saw so many kinds of wine, he also couldn’t help himself.

Xiuxiu only looked up, then continued chewing on her chicken.

The white goose scoffed, then took a bottle for his own.

“This shot is for first brother” Gu Qing Shan held up his cup and said.

The white goose also brought up his own cup, pleased: “Hm, that’s right, then bottoms up”

“Yes” Gu Qing Shan said.
