Chapter 326  : Chapter 333: If one does not die of old age, they are a monster! (One more)

Everyone was dumbfounded!

No one had expected Hua Youyue, who had just arrived and become the focus of attention, to proactively approach the chef and chat with him so casually, her face beaming with a smile.

What was most astonishing was that the chef, acting so carefree and wearing his chef hat crooked, had also just scared off Hua Youyue’s pet.

How had such a reckless man won Hua Youyue’s favor?

Everyone looked at Yang Zhen with astonishment, including the powerful practitioners in the Tribulation Crossing Period, who couldn’t help but cast an extra glance at him.

Ning wuque appeared gloomy, he glared at Mo Xueling, looking at Yang Zhen with uncertainty, a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.

in the Beigu Institute, an old man walked to Ning Wuque’s side and huffed lightly.

Ning Wuque suddenly felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and gazed with horror at the old man.

“Sanlian seat, Wuque has lost his spirit of literature!

The old man casually glanced at Yang Zhen and said, “Do not judge a book by its cover, whether you are traveling or simply stepping outside, do not underestimate anyone because you never know if they do not appear to be exceptional talents hiding their light under a bushel, Wuque, remember that in this world, there are countless people and things you should never

underestimate.”

Ning Wuque took a deep breath and nodded, replying, “Wuque has understood!”

The old man, referred to as Sanlian seat, showed a faint smile on his face. With profundity in his gaze, he looked at Ning Wuque and said thoughtfully, “But remember, even if someone is too strong for you to touch, you should still have the courage to challenge. This is the strength of literature. You only need to remember that the Beigu Institute has always got your back, and what you need to do is just not bring turmoil into the world!”

Ning Wuque’s whole body shivered, and a gleam of brilliance burst forth from his eyes; numerous golden symbols forming in his pupils, shining brightly.

“Wuque knows what to do now!”

Yang Zhen suddenly felt two stares on him, as palpable as if he could feel them on his back, which was rather vexing. He scratched his back feeling more comfortable, then looked at Hua Youyue with a puzzled face.

■■Little miss, you seem to have a rather potent aura of resentment to you. This humble Sao Saint hasn’t spoken a word, yet it seems like I’ve already offended most of the people here!”

A glimmer of laughter flashed in Hua Youyue’s eyes, “There will be even more

for you to bear in the future!”

Yang Zhen bellowed in laughter, pointing to the sky with determination in his voice, “Even if the sky falls down, this humble Sao Saint can push it back up.

“You…” Hua Youyue stuttered, a slight change in her expression. But, the upturn at corners of her mouth grew wider, and she glared at Yang Zhen, saying, “Stop talking nonsense, it’s not that serious!

The surrounding people stared at the shockwave that arose in the sky in bewilderment, at a loss for what was happening.

Had the chef managed to provoke divine wrath just by pointing to the sky.

Luckily the fury of the heavens came swiftly and departed just as quickly. For that moment, the entire birthday celebration was enveloped in silence.

“Are you going back?” Yang Zhen asked Hua Youyue.

Hua Youyue shook her head, “No, I’m not going back.”

Yang Zhen paused, grinning, “You should go back, the seats over there are more comfortable!”

Hua Youyue also paused, tilted her head to look at Yang Zhen and chuckled,

“Just because they are more comfortable?

Oh!

Yang Zhen didn’t quite understand and replied, “What else could be the reason? Later I have to cook. Damn, there are so many people; it’s going to take a long time. Luckily I had the wit to prepare enough hot sauce beforehand, so all I need to do is to have someone ready when the time comes.

Hua Youyue nodded, looking at Yang Zhen somewhat strangely, “With your talent, why should you be confined to the blue-collar life of a chef?

Yang Zhen seriously looked at Hua Youyue and said, “Little girl, in the Three Thousand Great Taoist, every path has its masters, don’t underestimate a chef. Now I am a culinary god. Believe it or not, the delicacies I create can even change the color of the earth and sky!

“I believe you!” Hua Youyue nodded without hesitation and said with a laugh. Yang Zhen was stunned, and waved his hand saying, “I was just bragging!” Hua Youyue’s smile spread across her face as she looked at Yang Zhen and said, “I’m going back, you…have fun on your own!

Yang Zhen laughed heartily and said, “Your use of the word ‘fun’ is clever. Life is all about struggle… either I’m struggling with life, or life is struggling wit me. Why not be more proactive?”

Hua Youyue looked startled, repeated Yang Zhen’s words to herself, and laughed, “What you said always makes sense.”

What a bullshit.

Yang Zhen dumbly watched Hua Youyue leave and muttered to himself, “Oh no, this young lady seems to have been brainwashed by Sao Saint. What am I going to do?”

just as Hua Youyue sat down next to Mo Xueling, this exotic woman turned her head and chattered endlessly, like a sparrow.

At that moment, a lotus car appeared amidst celestial music in everyone’s field of vision.

The figure at the forefront was an elderly woman on a seat drawn by phoenixes and luan birds, her face aglow and smiling at everyone.

Everyone present, including the powerful practitioners in the Tribulation Crossing Period, all stood up to welcome this phoenix-carnage.

Many strong practitioners from the Spiritual Studies Palace were gathered around the old woman, with all their auras indicating Tribulation Crossing

Period fluctuations.

Especially the old woman. When Yang Zhen saw her, he felt like he was struck by lightning.

“Such a terrifying aura!”

Yang Zhen looked at the old woman with surprise, his expression flickering. He felt as if he was facing a heavenly tribulation when faced with her aura.

A human-shaped heavenly tribulation. This was a bit terrifying.

This was the first time Yang Zhen had seen a person who could give him such a feeling of oppression, this old woman was even more terrifying than those practitioners at the Tribulation Crossing stage, proving just how powerful she was.

When Hu Tao, standing by Yang Zhen’s side, sensed Yang Zhen s emotional fluctuations, she whispered, “The old Palace Master’s cultivation is profound. It’s said that she has already crossed the tribulation twenty-three times. Once she crosses once more, it will be a cycle of heavenly dao, tremendously powerful!”

With a startled expression, Yang Zhen exclaimed, “Has she truly crossed the tribulation twenty-three times? She truly is as terrifying as rumors suggest.” Hu Tao chuckled and looked at Yang Zhen, asking, “Are you very surprised?” Yang Zhen grumbles softly, “An old person not dying is a monster.” “What did you say?” Hu Tao curiously looked at Yang Zhen.

“Nothing!” Not daring to disclose his real thoughts, Yang Zhen playfully tapped Hu Tao on the head. “You better get ready.”

The old woman was not a person who rambled on. After a few words, everyone had quickly taken their seats.

She glanced around at everyone and blissfully said, “As an old woman, my foot is almost in the grave. It’s a great honor in my life to have been able to invite all of you here. With the frequent disturbances in the Forbidden Land of Life recently, I wish to take this opportunity to form an alliance to stabilize the Forbidden Land, and create an opportunity for the younger generations to hone their skills!”

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

The Forbidden Land of Life was not a place to practice casually. This implied that the old Palace Master had grand plans.

Even Yang Zhen was surprised. He had not anticipated that this old woman would be bold enough to set her sights on the Forbidden Land. However, with this move, the young lady’s entry into the Forbidden Land might be a bit safer. Hm, a good old woman.

Everyone looked at the old Palace Master in bewilderment. As the room filled with whispers, the Palace Master gave everyone a moment to digest the information, wearing a smile on her face, and not saying another word.

Then Ning Wuque suddenly stood up and bowed. “The old Palace Master’s merit will last thousands of autumns. On her birthday, even as she considers younger generations like us, it’s truly humbling. However, before that, why don’t we present our gifts to congratulate the old Palace Master on her boundless longevity?”

After speaking, Ning Wuque cast a smirk at Yang Zhen, leaving him a bit baffled.

“What is this guy up to?”

Hu Tao’s face changed, and she whispered, “I don’t know, but there’s something off about his gaze, be careful!”
