The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Chapter 963: Chapter 957: Jii Xiaoyao’s Excitement and Frustration

At this moment.

It’s the latter half of the night, and the night is darker and deeper!

Jii Xiaoyao halted her lotus steps, standing before the courtyard behind the temple, her beautiful eyes concentrated, looking at the semi-darkness ahead.

In the void above, a fleeting figure swept by like a light wild goose.

However, Jii Xiaoyao still caught sight of those two fleeting figures.

”A Golden Core cultivator? Could it be a senior from the Central Continent?”

Jii Xiaoyao’s beautiful eyes shimmered with doubt, pondering secretly.

In a place like the East Continent, it’s rare to see a Golden Core Great Cultivator.

Even those who can cultivate to the Golden Core realm are hard to find here.

Even in Yanjing, Golden Core Great Cultivators are extremely rare, like a phoenix’s feather or a unicorn’s horn.

At such a level, they either retreat from the world or go to the Central Continent to seek higher levels.

Therefore.

Jii Xiaoyao was even more astonished.

To walk in the air, one’s cultivation must at least be at the level of a Golden Core Cultivator!

”Miss Jii, what’s wrong?”

The people behind, including Su Daoyang, saw Jii Xiaoyao standing still and were all puzzled.

Tang Huachen also looked on in bewilderment and couldn’t help but follow her gaze upwards.

But he, of course, saw nothing.

”It’s nothing!”

Jii Xiaoyao did not explain to them, instead turning to Su Daoyang and saying, ”You said the true Cold Mountain Valley is accessed through a passage veiled by an array from this courtyard? But why is there no one here?”

”Miss Jii, please wait a moment!”

Su Daoyang hurriedly stepped into the courtyard first, glancing around, only to find no one there.

At this, Su Daoyang was a bit bewildered, ”Usually, Elder Wu Jiu is here practicing in meditation!”

Jii Xiaoyao walked in, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

But at that moment, a hearty voice came from inside the house.

”Haha... I didn’t expect my Cold Mountain Valley to receive two esteemed guests in one night!”

With the laughter, the door to the house opened, and Wu Jiu stepped out.

Seeing Wu Jiu appear, Su Daoyang rapidly went forward with Su Lei and Shen Zinan who accompanied him.

”Elder Witch!”

Su Daoyang, Su Lei, and the others bowed respectfully in unison.

”Su Daoyang, why are you here?”

Wu Jiu seemed to be quite familiar with the Su family, speaking to Su Daoyang with a warm smile.

Meanwhile.

His gaze fell upon Jii Xiaoyao, his eyes narrowing suddenly, then he said, ”I wonder which esteemed guest is visiting our humble Cold Mountain... Won’t you introduce them, Su Daoyang?”

”Jii Xiaoyao from the Jii Family in Yanjing!”

Before Su Daoyang could respond, Jii Xiaoyao cupped her fists slightly, addressing Wu Jiu with grace.

Facing Wu Jiu, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, she only offered a slight bow, not the grand gesture, as she was entitled to.

Not to mention her background, being at the Qi Refining Stage Tenth Level already allowed Jii Xiaoyao to outshine most Foundation Establishment Cultivators!

With her true strength, defeating Wu Jiu would be no trouble!

However, Wu Jiu seemed taken aback at Jii Xiaoyao’s name, promptly cupping his fists in return, ”Miss Jii! I didn’t expect a distinguished disciple of Star Mountain to visit my Cold Mountain Valley, I hope you’ll forgive the lack of welcome!”

”You’re too kind! I’ve come this time with a request for Cold Mountain Valley!”

Jii Xiaoyao smiled charmingly, nodding as she said, ”May we come in?”

A request of Cold Mountain Valley?

Wu Jiu was puzzled.

There were already people from Dragon Cry City, followed by a Golden Core Supreme Senior, now here was someone they could hardly afford to offend at Cold Mountain Valley.

But Wu Jiu couldn’t say these aloud, nor did he have time to inquire about Jii Xiaoyao’s exact purpose, and he hurriedly led the way.

”Someone was here before?”

Jii Xiaoyao followed inside, seeing the mountain path hidden by the array ahead, her expression remained unchanged, as if accustomed to it.

Wu Jiu gave a slight bitter smile, turning his head, ”Did Miss Jii encounter someone?”

”No, I just saw two figures flying away. One of them should be a Golden Core cultivator, right?”

Jii Xiaoyao nodded slightly, speaking with curiosity and doubt.

The reason for guessing only one Golden Core cultivator was present was because two Golden Core Ancestors appearing together seemed unlikely.

”Miss Jii, you’re exceptionally perceptive. Indeed, a Golden Core Senior was here!”

Leading the way, Wu Jiu nodded with a smile, ”Moreover, it’s a senior Miss Jii could never have anticipated!”

”Oh?”

Jii Xiaoyao showed surprise on her face, astonished, ”Your words imply I might have heard or seen him?”

”Precisely! Such a renowned senior figure, given Miss Jii’s status, you should have heard of him!”

Wu Jiu smiled and nodded, speaking with a hint of mystery.

Could it be him?

Jii Xiaoyao felt a surge of excitement within her heart, quickly asking Wu Jiu, ”Which Golden Core Senior is it?”

Detecting the urgency in Jii Xiaoyao’s voice, Wu Jiu didn’t dare dawdle and promptly said, ”It’s none other than the recently famed Senior Lin Bei of the Southern Continent!”

”Lin... Lin Bei! The Supreme youth from the Southern Continent?”

Jii Xiaoyao paused in her steps, exclaiming repeatedly, her face showing shock and excitement.

Aside from sightseeing, the purpose of her visit to the East Continent was to see if she might chance upon the Supreme youth her master mentioned.

Such a genius is precisely the kind of towering and imposing man Jii Xiaoyao admired!

”Indeed, genuine beyond doubt!”

Wu Jiu firmly nodded, exclaiming, ”Miss Jii, you didn’t know we also have a Golden Core Senior visiting our Cold Mountain Valley. Invited by our Old Valley Master, he’s the Alchemy Demon, Senior Xie Qingyang. You didn’t know, earlier, Senior Lin Bei defeated Senior Xie Qingyang with just one punch! Such power!”

”Ah... Senior Xie Qingyang is here? Was Lin Bei here to take revenge on him?”

Once again, Jii Xiaoyao was astonished, but soon she stomped her lotus step in frustration, angrily saying, ”If we had come a bit sooner, we would have met him! How can we find him now...”

”Miss Jii wants to find Senior Lin? With his movement technique, he could be anywhere by now. You came too late!”

Wu Jiu showed surprise but then shook his head, saying, ”Senior Lin was not here for revenge, but to seek something from our Cold Mountain Valley. Also, Miss Jii, you should know...”

Then, Wu Jiu described everything that had transpired in Cold Mountain Valley earlier.

After listening, Jii Xiaoyao was slightly stunned.

Afterward, she felt increasingly regretful.

Because this young Lin Bei surpassed even what her master saw and exceeded what she anticipated!

She is a girl, a woman; a hero of unparalleled might and a beauty’s admiration is only natural.

Upon learning that Lin Tian was even more extraordinary than imagined, her infatuation with him only became more determined and resolute.

”The one I admire was within my reach, and the Fu Wangsheng Spirit Flower was also taken away...”

Jii Xiaoyao’s expression was extremely complex, sometimes excited, sometimes regretful, mumbling continuously.

Excited for having narrowly missed ”Lin Bei,” feeling this was fate.

Regretful for missing the chance to meet and also not obtaining the Fu Wangsheng Spirit Flower, considering it a wasted trip.

But ultimately, Jii Xiaoyao calmed her emotions, deciding to enter Cold Mountain Valley and meet Medicine Demon Xie Qingyang.
