Chapter 315 - 184: Senior Sister on the Mountain, Junior Sister at the Foot (Part 3)
Miss Lu’s gaze scanned this clear and elegant young man uncertainly. She, too, had never heard of the literary figure named Su Shi mentioned by You Su. At this moment, she couldn’t discern whether You Su’s words were humble or truthful.
She only knew that if this young man stayed at Book Immortal Peak, he would surely become a dazzling new star in the Literary Dao. It’s just a pity... he is that woman’s disciple. Could it be that he was deliberately brought here to humiliate Book Immortal Peak?
"Does this poem have a title?"
Miss Lu was immersed in the shock of the poem and had no intention of investigating the truth of the young man’s words any further.
"Against the Wind." You Su enunciated each word.
Miss Lu suddenly tossed over a jade seal, feeling ashamed of her earlier thoughts. Someone who could understand this poem couldn’t possibly be someone who would intentionally humiliate others.
She seemed to discard all her nobility, sighed softly, and said:
"You’ve passed. From today on, you are a certified researcher at Book Immortal Peak, capable of teaching poetry and essays."
...
You Su deliberately avoided the crowd and returned to Lotus Peak.
However, his name quickly appeared on the stone tablet of those who passed the examination at Book Immortal Peak.
This surprised many in the Profound Sky Sect, yet it also seemed perfectly natural. Many female cultivators fantasized about approaching You Su under the guise of learning poetry, but none of it mattered to You Su. After all, his only purpose in taking the examination was to make his senior sister happy.
Fortunately, on the second day after he gained the researcher status, his senior sister returned.
There was no need to see her, nor to communicate; just the sound of a girl’s running footsteps could convey her joy and eagerness.
You Su also waved his arms in response to his senior sister’s enthusiasm.
"Junior brother!" the girl shouted from afar.
"Are you alright, senior sister?" As soon as they met, You Su asked with concern.
The girl with white hair and blue eyes, her face covered by a mask, hadn’t changed a bit. Even the snow fox fur around her neck had no trace of dust. She was still that otherworldly enchanting fairy.
"I have something to say."
The girl seemed to want to get closer to You Su, but she feared he would use an old excuse to move away, so she cautiously shuffled her steps on the spot, testing You Su’s ’limits.’
You Su sensed his senior sister’s small actions and, unable to calmly accept her excessive intimacy, subtly leaned back and asked:
"Was the evil spirit really strong? Did it injure you, senior sister?"
Wangshu apologetically said, "When I said I had something, it’s because I missed you a lot, junior brother. So I quickly defeated the evil spirit, but the First Elder’s task was to capture it alive... so he reprimanded me."
You Su envied his senior sister a bit for being able to express her feelings so openly. Encouraged by her, he also sincerely said:
"I missed you too, senior sister."
"Really?" The girl blinked her crystal blue eyes.
You Su smiled nonchalantly, unwilling to delve into the issue of the evil spirit with the girl any further, as it wasn’t something she wished to do, especially since she had spoiled her own task.
"Since it was my fault that your task failed, I’ll use this to apologize to you, senior sister." You Su took out the seal symbolizing the researcher status at Book Immortal Peak from the Qiankun Bag. "Senior sister, now I can legitimately teach you, and the Third Elder can’t say anything anymore."
Wangshu looked at the red seal with delight and grasped You Su’s hand with joy, saying:
"That’s wonderful! I can continue learning the Holding Tube Skill!"
...
At the foot of the towering Divine Mountain, a travel-weary girl in a green dress wiped the fragrant sweat from her forehead and looked expectantly toward a spot within the clouds and mist.
She smiled with contentment and muttered to herself:
"Senior brother, oh senior brother, please don’t be too surprised to see me..."
