#973 - Chapter 973 Follow Back
At this moment, Xing Chenlan revealed the side of a child, shedding tears of reluctance in the face of separation from his family.
“Sister, after… after I leave, you must take good care of yourself!” Xing Chenlan choked as he bid farewell to Xing Yueyao.
“Alright.” Xing Yueyao affectionately stroked Xing Chenlan’s little head.
Ye Kong and Xing walked out of the Star Observation Pavilion.
When Xing Chenlan saw Xing, he immediately wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve.
Xing noticed Xing Chenlan's small action but said nothing.
Ye Kong came to Xing Chenlan's side.
“Ancestor, Miss Xing, then I will take Xing Chenlan away first.” After Ye Kong greeted Xing Yueyao and Xing, he prepared to take Xing Chenlan back to逍遥Peak.
“Grandfather, grandson is leaving.” Xing Chenlan didn't say too many farewell words to Xing, and Xing simply nodded without saying anything.
Xing Chenlan's cultivation was in the middle stage of Qi Refining, and he didn't yet have the ability to ride the wind, so Ye Kong conjured his own Scarlet Firmament.
Scarlet Firmament suddenly appeared in front of the two.
Ye Kong leaped up and stood on the tip of Scarlet Firmament's sword, and Xing Chenlan followed, standing on the body of Scarlet Firmament's sword.
Ye Kong stretched out his arms, Scarlet Firmament gradually floated up, Ye Kong increased his spiritual power, and Scarlet Firmament flew into the high sky.
Xing Chenlan was flying for the first time, and he couldn't quite adapt to the balance, standing crookedly.
Ye Kong stretched his arm in front of Xing Chenlan, allowing Xing Chenlan to grab him and maintain balance.
Xing Yueyao and Xing looked at Xing Chenlan's departing figure, their eyes full of reluctance.
“Swoosh~” Scarlet Firmament streaked across the sky.
Ye Kong took Xing Chenlan to Lianyun Continent.
Looking at the different scenery under his feet, Xing Chenlan's eyes were full of curiosity.
“This is Lianyun Continent. Look there.” Ye Kong pointed Xing Chenlan in the direction of a mountain top.
Xing Chenlan looked in the direction Ye Kong pointed, and saw a mountain peak appearing in the midst of swirling clouds.
“That is逍遥Peak!” Ye Kong performed a hand seal, increased his spiritual power, and the speed of Scarlet Firmament's flight suddenly increased, Xing Chenlan tightly grabbed Ye Kong's arm.
“Master! Look, Master is back.”
Xi'er, who was cultivating on the top of Peach Mountain, recognized Ye Kong at a glance when she saw the flying figure in the sky.
Ye Wuxin and Ye Xiaoyao also looked towards the sky, and saw Ye Kong descending on his sword.
The three immediately ran towards Ye Kong's direction.
Ye Kong's hand flashed with spiritual light, and Scarlet Firmament disappeared.
“Let’s go!” Ye Kong led Xing Chenlan into逍遥Peak.
“Master~”
Xi'er and the other two ran towards them.
The three came to Ye Kong's front and obediently saluted Ye Kong.
“Master, where did you go these past few days? Why didn’t you take Xi'er?” Xi'er thought that Ye Kong must have gone traveling everywhere.
“This teacher brought back a junior brother for you!” Ye Kong pointed to Xing Chenlan next to him.
Junior brother!!!
Ye Wuxin, Ye Xiaoyao, and Xi'er were shocked, and after reacting, they immediately turned and ran away.
Ye Kong was also surprised to see the three running away. When he brought Xiao Feng back to逍遥Peak before, they didn't react like this.
Ye Kong looked at Xing Chenlan, afraid that Xing Chenlan would be worried, and explained.
“They are always like this, maybe they are too excited.”
Xing Chenlan nodded obediently.
Ye Kong took Xing Chenlan to Maple Leaf Evening Hall, wanting to explain the matters within逍遥Peak to Xing Chenlan.
He pushed open the door of Maple Leaf Evening Hall.
The disciples hiding inside the door immediately scattered flower petals.
Xing Chenlan hadn't realized what was going on, but Ye Kong had already guessed that this was a surprise from the disciples.
At this time, the disciples came out from the back room of Maple Leaf Evening Hall, standing in neat rows, one by one.
“Master!” The disciples saluted in unison.
Ye Kong walked up to the second step of Maple Leaf Evening Hall.
Ye Kong waved his sleeve and turned around, looking very domineering.
It was then that Xing Chenlan felt that Ye Kong had the aura of the master of a peak.
“Xing Chenlan!” Ye Kong called out Xing Chenlan's name.
The disciples' eyes gathered on the boy that Ye Kong brought back.
“Senior sister, is this junior brother?” Ye Feng had just heard Xi'er say that Master had brought back a disciple.
“It should be, this junior brother's eyes are the same as Xiao Feng's, they are the most special and the most beautiful.” Mu Qianqian noticed that Xing Chenlan's pupil color was different from ordinary people.
Xing Chenlan heard Ye Kong call his name, stepped forward, and felt a little uncomfortable under everyone's gaze.
“From now on, you will be the fifteenth disciple of my逍遥Peak!” Ye Kong was also announcing that Xing Chenlan had become a member of逍遥Peak.
Xing Chenlan saluted Ye Kong with the etiquette of圣洲.
“This is your junior brother, his name is Xing Chenlan, and he is only ten years old. As senior brothers and sisters, you must take good care of Xiao Lan!” Ye Kong introduced Xing Chenlan to everyone.
Looking at Xing Chenlan with a pair of blue eyes, the disciples felt a little novel.
Xing Chenlan lowered his head shyly, not knowing how to get along with his fellow disciples.
At this time, Lin Yaoyao walked up, looked at the boy in front of her who was lowering his head, Lin Yaoyao smiled slightly, and then said.
“Xiao Lan, hello. I am Lin Yaoyao, the eldest senior sister of逍遥Peak.”
Xing Chenlan slowly raised his head, looked at the beautiful woman in front of him with his unique blue eyes, nodded slightly, but did not speak.
Xi'er ran up at this time, put his arm around Xing Chenlan's shoulder, and enthusiastically introduced Xing Chenlan.
“Junior brother, my name is Xi'er, I am your senior brother~” Xing Chenlan looked at the boy in front of him who was about the same age as him, and didn't expect that there were such young cultivators in逍遥Peak.
“That is second senior brother Bai Wuchen, that is third senior sister Feng Qingqing, fourth senior brother Ye Xiaoyao…”
“Hello, junior brother!” Every senior brother and sister greeted Xing Chenlan enthusiastically.
Xi'er introduced all the senior brothers and sisters to Xing Chenlan, and Xing Chenlan quickly remembered everyone's names.
Ye Kong noticed that Xing Chenlan rarely spoke, and thought that he must not be used to it yet.
“Yaoyao, take Xiao Lan to his room, and also take Xiao Lan to familiarize himself with the environment of逍遥Peak.” Ye Kong thought that Lin Yaoyao looked a little kinder, and it would be most appropriate to take Xing Chenlan to familiarize himself with逍遥Peak.
“Yes.”
“Junior brother, follow me.”
Lin Yaoyao took Xing Chenlan to the thatched cottage.
“Go do whatever you need to do.” Ye Kong dismissed the others.
“Hey, Master, where did this junior brother come from?” Chen Haoran asked Ye Kong.
“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask.” Ye Kong didn’t tell the disciples Xing Chenlan’s identity.
“Then Master, what is the difference between junior brother’s eyes and my异瞳?”
Ye Feng didn't care about his eyes anymore, but when Xing Chenlan appeared, Ye Feng noticed his different eyes and thought of his own eyes again, very puzzled.
Ye Kong thought of Xing Yueyao's eyes also being blue, so he replied.
“Xing Chenlan's blue eyes are a family inheritance. And our Xiao Feng's异瞳 are unique!”
