Chapter 112 The Elders Who Have Taken Things Easy
Wait, this is not allowed!
The group of elders were almost stunned.
Let's not just start gossiping about things without thinking!
Of course, it's not that they don't like gossip, it's that they don't want to be gossiped about!
To die in front of everyone in the sect is simply too shameful!
[Lan Yue: I think I saw the Fifth Elder...]
The Fifth Elder was stunned. Why was he still there?
Is Xiao Lanyue inseparable from him when it comes to gossip? Why is she bringing up his gossip again?
[Lan Yue: No, no, the Fifth Elder's prize is too small; it definitely won't get many points. Let's look at the other elders' prizes.]
The Fifth Elder breathed a sigh of relief, while the other elders were all on edge.
[Lan Yue: We've already had our fill of the Second Elder's gossip last time. I even brought him some starflowers. I'll mix them with rootless powder and make it into tea for him to drink, to dispel the curse, and as compensation for the fish he raised.]
The second elder at the front was somewhat surprised, not expecting that this little guy had actually brought the Star Flower.
Moreover, she didn't ask for anything in return for such a precious thing, and even planned to secretly make tea for him.
Actually, those spirit fish aren't very valuable; they're just a bit rare.
The Second Elder was deeply moved.
"Wait, don't leave yet. We still have some questions for Lan Yue about the Nine-Layer Array Tower. Listen up," the Second Elder suddenly said to the elders around him.
All the elders: "???"
Second Elder, are you trying to tear other people's umbrellas after you've been rained on yourself?
Xiao Lanyue only gave you a few things, and now she wants to drag everyone else into her gossip!
Tears streamed down the faces of all the elders, yet they could not disagree, for the nine-layered array tower was far too important.
[Lan Yue: Sigh, I brought too much stuff from the ruins this time. There's even an ancient herb called Cat Spirit Grass. It's said to be especially good for little spirit cats, extending their lifespan and making them healthier...]
"Wait, I think the Second Elder is absolutely right. The Nine-Story Array Tower is so important, how can we just leave like this? Let's go, let's discuss with Xiao Lanyue how to make the imprint and what reward we should give her."
The Fifth Elder spoke with righteous indignation.
The other elders all stared in disbelief in the direction of the Fifth Elder, their expressions seeming to say, "So this is the kind of person you are, Fifth Elder!"
The elders were filled with regret; they had misjudged him!
[Lan Yue: Let me think... I seem to have a lot of Mind-Cleansing Tea accumulated by Senior Nine-Story Pagoda. She said it's very useful for eliminating inner demons during advancement. It's preserved using a special method and will still be fresh even after tens of thousands of years. Which elder should I give it to?]
"Wait, Fifth Elder, you're right. Xiao Lanyue and Yunxi have done so much for the sect, their sacrifices are truly immense! Look at them, they've lost weight after spending so long entertaining guests in the Nine-Story Tower!"
"I just watched Xiao Lanyue eat. She can only finish two large bowls of food in one meal and has already lost her appetite. This won't do! Our sect must think of a solution!"
The other elders chimed in.
The elders, filled with righteous indignation, all gathered around.
Lan Yue, on the other hand, was confused. Weren't these elders just leaving? Why did they suddenly come back?
She hasn't lost weight; her friends all say she's gained weight and grown taller!
And she used to only eat one big bowl of food!
However, she was still flattered by the concern shown by so many elders.
"No need to say anything more. We know how you've suffered, Lan Yue. Just tell us what you want in the future, and we'll get it for you no matter what!"
"I heard you wanted to know about a spirit bed that's warm in winter and cool in summer? Leave that to us. We'll find the most skilled craftsmen to make you the most exquisite bed!"
"As for that nine-story array tower, you don't need to worry. What's meant to be yours will definitely be yours!"
"Yes, don't worry about anyone taking it away. Anyone who wants to mess with you will have to get past us first!"
The elders all assured them.
"The elders are such kind people!" Lan Yue exclaimed from the bottom of her heart.
[Lan Yue: This makes me a little embarrassed to even be a spectator.]
Lan Yue felt a rare pang of guilt, but the guilt only lasted a second; she still had to enjoy the gossip!
Anyway, it's all just in my mind; only Heaven, Earth, the elders, and Lan Yue know.
The elders steeled themselves and said, "It's alright, eat as much as you like!"
Compared to cultivation level and inner demons, these are nothing!
Of course, the most crucial point is that this guy is bound to get involved in their gossip sooner or later; there's no way to avoid it!
A group of elders suddenly felt enlightened.
[Lan Yue: Then let's do this: first cut a piece of Elder Wan's melon, then eat the Southern Spirit Sect's. That way my conscience won't hurt.]
Lan Yue pondered in her heart.
Elders: You're actually a pretty good person!
