Chapter 78 [Mountain’s Desolate Tomb]
That night, the two stayed in the He Family Mansion, with prepared guest rooms in the backyard, one room per person.
Chen Yan felt quite comfortable living here — in such a wealthy ho, the furniture and facilities, along with all the utilities, were top-grade.
That night, Chen Yan ditated and practiced the Cultivation Technique until the latter half of the night before falling asleep.
When dawn broke, Chen Yan, who had slept less than four hours, got up feeling refreshed and vigorous thanks to Essence Nourishing.
He first checked WeChat on his phone, but Gu Qingyi hadn’t sent any ssages. He thought for a bit and proactively sent a safety update to Young Lady Gu, but didn’t receive a reply even after waiting for a few minutes.
Well, Celestial Beings are indeed very aloof.
Getting up and walking out the door, he saw Chu Keqing standing in the backyard.
Winter mornings were very cold, and today they were going to the mountains for a search. Chu Keqing finally didn’t wear that kind of cheongsam that made n’s eyes go straight. Instead, she was dressed in a down jacket, jeans, and hiking boots, with a backpack on her back.
Chen Yan couldn’t help but laugh when he glanced at her.
This woman had always been the type of seductive mature beauty, but today, with such a change of attire, she looked much younger.
"Senior, good morning." Chu Keqing greeted politely.
Chen Yan looked at her, a little puzzled. "You haven’t been standing here waiting for to co out all morning, have you?"
Chu Keqing straightened up and said in a respectful tone, "Since yesterday, when Senior’s great kindness helped correct our sect’s Cultivation Technique, I made up my mind to treat you with the respect of a teacher. In front of you, I, Chu Keqing, will act with the courtesy of a disciple!"
Chen Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at the woman.
Hmm... actually... you could just directly give money!
Transfer or scan a QR code would be fine, the more zeros after the number, the happier I’d be.
All this talk about treating with the respect of a teacher... it would be more practical to offer sothing tangible.
Chen Yan led Chu Keqing out from the backyard to the dining room in the front, where the He Family’s housekeeper had already prepared breakfast.
During breakfast, Chen Yan remained silent, and Chu Keqing assud the senior was pondering over nurous doubts. Little did she know, Senior Chen was actually thinking about how to subtly convey to this woman that he had a fondness for pink and girly things.
After breakfast, Chu Keqing t with Boss He, exchanged a few words, and then set off with Chen Yan to investigate in the mountains.
Boss He didn’t dispatch anyone as per Chu Keqing’s request, only providing Chu Keqing with a car for use.
Chu Keqing drove while Chen Yan sat in the passenger seat. They followed the previous day’s route to the foot of the mountain, then hiked up.
On the way up, they first reached the He Family’s ancestral graveyard. Chu Keqing stopped to rest for a few minutes, drank so water, then looked at Chen Yan: "Senior, where should we start the investigation?"
Chen Yan shook his head. "We don’t know where the target is, so we can start anywhere. To be honest, today we’re just here to try our luck, wandering around the mountain, using the Qi Observation Skill to search everywhere and see if we can stumble upon so great luck and make a discovery.
If we make a discovery, great. If not, no need to be depressed.
At the very least, getting out and breathing the fresh mountain air is better than staying in the He Family Mansion."
Pausing, Chen Yan deliberately glanced at Chu Keqing: "Didn’t you feel that the mansion is so lifeless that staying there for too long makes you feel stifled?"
Chu Keqing looked at Chen Yan and then shook her head: "I didn’t really notice."
She just thought the senior was probably bored staying at ho and wanted to venture into the mountains.
The two wandered around the mountains all morning, without any cliché scenarios like "woman sprains her ankle or encounters danger, man helps her, and they develop feelings for each other in the deep mountains" happening.
However, Chu Keqing noticed a detail: whenever they climbed, this senior would always, knowingly or unknowingly, end up behind her...
She was a woman, and a beautiful one cherished and pursued by n since childhood. She wasn’t like an ignorant little girl like Lu Sisi.
Any beautiful self-aware woman must have been ogled and noticed by countless n from childhood to adulthood. She was well aware of n’s eyes and thoughts.
(This senior is clearly aged yet still... quite improper. Definitely a scumbag!)
Walking up the slope, Chu Keqing blushed secretly but was too shy to confront him. Recalling a prescription she’d seen, she thought this senior must be overly ’fiery’... making her blush even more.
Following behind her, Chen Yan enjoyed himself.
Mm, lifting his head, he could see a round peach swaying back and forth before his eyes.
Pleasing sight!

By noon, they had reached the western mountain top, quite a distance from the He Family’s ancestral graveyard.
From the mountaintop, Chen Yan chose a high spot to stand, scanning the surroundings with Primordial Qi rotating within him.
This spot was the highest point on the western side, corresponding to the ’Left Azure Dragon’ and ’Right White Tiger’ from the view of the He Family graveyard, the Azure Dragon area.
Being higher, the view was broader, almost capturing the entire mountain terrain.
Using the Qi Observation Skill, the grey Primordial Qi around this area flowed abundantly, far denser and richer than the Qi in the cities.
