Yang Chen was completely speechless, Gao Yue’s outburst made all his previous plans come to nothing. He doesn’t know what Gao Yue thought or how she made such a decision.
However, perhaps it was that Gao Yue heard the heart-wrenching oath from the seven fairies. She had always wanted to find more people for Yang Chen who could serve Yang Chen. She couldn’t accompany Yang Chen for a long time because of the previous matters, so finding a few more people might help Yang Chen not be disturbed too much.
Especially the origins of these fairies were the three major sects, the Greatest Heaven Sect, Qiankun Sect and Five Elements Sect, if you add Sun Qingxue and Shi Shanshan’s Blue Cloud Sect and Green Jade Immortal Island, the five major sects are complete, she believe there are those words from Gao Yue, these few women will definitely drive away any women who intend to approach Yang Chen.
In this regard, what Gao Yue and the others have done was not enough. Gao Yue and Gongsun Ling were born in the Pure Yang Palace, and sometimes it was impossible to do this kind of things, Shi Shanshan doesn’t care about other things at all, Sun Qingxue was happy as long as Yang Chen was. That’s fine, a few more can do this effectively, perhaps this was also one of Gao Yue’s considerations.
Especially with Gao Yue’s attitude, the three major sects will also further attracted to the Pure Yang Palace. Even if they want to deal with the Greatest Heaven Sect in the future, they only need to hide it from Tao Junqi. It could even be used to unite the people of the other four sects.
Since Gao Yue nodded and came forward in person, of course Yang Chen would not take a completely different attitude from Gao Yue. When dealing with the seven women, his face relaxed a lot.
“Actually, your sect may not have this medicinal herbs.” Yang Chen said, a jade slip suddenly appeared in his hand and handed it to Tao Junqi.
Tao Junqi was stunned for a moment, and when she brought it over to investigate, a strange look appeared on her face. Then, very strangely, she handed the jade slip to Murong next to her. After the Murong five sisters took turns to look at it, they handed it to Shi Wushuang. Everyone’s faces were full of indescribable expressions.
“This is just a myth and legend, husband!” After Shi Wushuang read it word by word, she returned the jade slip to Yang Chen with a wry smile “How could such a thing be found in the mortal world!”
They don’t know where such folklore was recorded in the jade slips, and they don’t know where the jade slips were collected to record such chores. One of them records a kind of herb that increases longevity by eating it.
Usually, everyone laughs at this kind of folklore. It was understandable to use it as a chat to relieve boredom, but if it was serious, it was a joke. That’s why all the girls looked like that. They really couldn’t imagine how a dignified Yuanying stage master, a fifth-grade alchemist, would believe such a ridiculous thing.
“Sometimes, people think that I can become a fifth-grade alchemist, there must be some secret. They believe that I can get some precious materials that others can’t get.” Yang Chen smiled, and said to the seven women beside him: “Today, I will let you see how I get somethings that others can’t get.”
In front of Yang Chen, a table, teapots and cups were set up, and a pot of spiced tea was brewed, and everyone had a share. After everyone sat around the table, Yang Chen took out another piece of jade slip and said, “This is one of the hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous books in my collection, look at the records inside.”
After everyone took turns to read it, there was still a folklore in it. There was a monkey who ate a peach and turned into a monkey spirit or something.
“This article was obtained from the Blue Cloud Sect’s collection of books.” Yang Chen took out another jade slip.
Looking at the girls again, they thought it was still folklore. In the two jade slips, there was an Immortal peach. After eating it, you can immediately ascend to the Immortal world. Mu Mingyuan has done this kind of thing once, but it was definitely not an Immortal peach, but an elixir refined by Yang Chen. Although the girls felt a little ridiculous, their expressions were much more cautious.
“This one is a collection of books in the Green Jade Immortal Island.” Yang Chen seemed to sincerely want to show the girls how to find peerless treasures from folklore, and took out another jade slip.
“There are similar legends in the collection of the Greatest Heaven Sect.” This time Yang Chen took out the collection of books obtained from the Greatest Heaven Sect. The content was nothing more than this, a fisherman accidentally lost his way into a peach forest, fell asleep after eating a peach, and woke up and could no longer find the peach forest or something.
“This is also from the Five Elements Sect.” Another piece of jade slip was directly given to the Murong Five Sisters. According to the folklore, someone saw that on the night of lightning and thunder, a peach core fell from the sky and turned into a small mountain, and the two gates in front of the mountain were tightly closed.
“Qiankun Sect also has something similar.” This jade slip was given to Shi Wushuang. The same was a folklore, a certain barren mountain turned into a peach forest overnight, and the fallen flowers were colorful. The literati and poets come here from time to time, and they endure for a long time.
“These are all legends, and some are recorded by literati, who ate peaches from a certain place to be light and healthy, etc.” Yang Chen took out dozens of jade slips at once, and put them on the table and the women checked them one by one.
All the women took these jade slips to investigate for a long time, but they were unable to effectively string together all the clues.
“Husband, is there any mystery here?” Shi Wushuang asked.
Yang Chen sighed inwardly and looked at the other six girls. Tao Junqi and the five Murong sisters were also waiting for Yang Chen’s answer. Yang Chen picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then said, “The records of these literati and poets are not very useful, they are just to prove somethings.”
“Why is this? Husband!” Shi Wushuang still didn’t understand “Accordingly, they are people who have something to say!” The other girls also nodded.
“These guys never believe in certain things.” Yang Chen shook his head and said contemptuously, “Also, what the literati memorized is sometimes not necessarily true.”
The girls agreed on this point, Tao Junqi turned and asked suspiciously “Husband, is it because those legends are the focus?” Tao Junqi also added husband to almost every sentence, for fear that Yang Chen would default on his debts.
“That’s right.” Yang Chen replied with certainty “Those legends are the real focus. Because they are legends, some people will not consciously modify them when they record them, so that we can see the original ones. The things left by the literati have long been changed by myself or others.”
