Reading Is Holy! Exposed By My Junior Sister!

Chapter 17: Surprise! Senior Brother is also a fan of Emperor Song?

Sitting down next to the stone table, Chen Chang'an didn't hold back and picked up his chopsticks to grab a dish and put it in his mouth.

Huh??

Originally, Chen Chang'an didn't have high expectations for the dishes made by Mao Ruxue.

Because no matter how you look at it, this little junior sister of his was definitely a wealthy daughter from a prominent family before coming up the mountain!

She might even come from a cultivation family, a princess of the cultivation dynasty.

In short, her status was extraordinary, living a privileged life.

For someone like her to cook, it was usually just about being edible.

Pursuing taste? That didn't exist!

However, as soon as he tasted the dish, Chen Chang'an was instantly amazed!

The texture, the combination of seasonings, it was incredible!

Although it couldn't compare to the great chefs of his past life, it was definitely not far off!

With one bite, it was pure enjoyment!

"Junior sister, have you cooked before?"

After eating, Chen Chang'an curiously asked.

At this moment, Chen Chang'an looked at Mao Ruxue's eyes, and both pairs of eyes were shining.

When he was recruiting disciples to come down the mountain, his original plan was to find someone to fill the numbers.

So when he found this girl, Mao Ruxue, he didn't think much about it and brought her up the mountain.

The only requirement was that she was a person!

But now, it seemed like he had struck gold!

No, it was more than just gold, it was a huge treasure!

Not only was she beautiful and sweet, but she was also exceptionally intelligent and thrifty.

This, this must be because he saved the world in his previous life that he was able to meet such a junior sister!

"When I was at home, I saw my older sisters cooking, so I learned some," Mao Ruxue truthfully replied.

Then she asked, "How is it, senior brother? Is the taste alright?"

"For the past few years, my mother didn't let me touch these things in order to let me focus on cultivation."

"I haven't cooked in years, so my skills might be rusty. Senior brother, is it alright?"

"Well, it's fine. The taste is good, almost as good as what I make," Chen Chang'an nodded.

"Sit down and eat together."

[Old man, how about it? Didn't I do a good job finding this disciple for you?]

Of course, Chen Chang'an wouldn't admit that he was happy because there was finally someone who could cook on the mountain.

But this was definitely something worth being happy about!

If having someone cook for you wasn't worth being happy about, then what else was?

In no time, the table full of dishes was finished by the two of them.

Watching Mao Ruxue clean up the bowls and chopsticks, Chen Chang'an spoke up, "Junior sister, you've been on the mountain for more than ten days now."

Mao Ruxue nodded and said, "Yes, senior brother. Including the day I arrived, it has been twelve days."

"Are you getting used to living here?"

"Senior brother, if I say I'm not used to it, will the living conditions improve in the future?"

"Silly child, don't think about those things."

"So, will it improve?"

"No."

Mao Ruxue didn't want to talk anymore.

Chen Chang'an said, "Three months from now, there will be a grand competition among the sects."

"Each peak needs to send at least one disciple to participate."

"If you have the time, you can participate."

"Oh, I understand, senior brother."

Mao Ruxue nodded.

"Then remember to go participate on your own when the time comes. I might not be there." Seeing Mao Ruxue nod, Chen Chang'an reminded her.

With Mao Ruxue's strength, she was originally not qualified to participate in the grand competition.

But there's no other way, now she's the only one on the mountain, so she has to go.

"By the way, what cultivation techniques have you been practicing recently? Have you encountered any difficulties in your cultivation?"

At least she's his junior sister, Chen Chang'an plans to give Mao Ruxue some guidance.

After hearing Chen Chang'an's words, Mao Ruxue thought for a moment.

"Senior brother, I am currently practicing the sect's core cultivation technique, the 'Purple Yang Heart Sutra,' and the 'Past Life Rebirth Sutra' from the mountain. I haven't encountered any problems though."

Mao Ruxue wasn't lying. She really hadn't encountered any problems while practicing the "Purple Yang Heart Sutra" and the "Past Life Rebirth Sutra."

"The 'Purple Yang Heart Sutra'? 'Past Life Rebirth Sutra'?"

Upon hearing Mao Ruxue's words, Chen Chang'an was instantly stunned.

He didn't expect this girl to choose these two cultivation techniques.

One Buddhist, one Dao!

This is not simple.

"Did you go to the waterfall when you were practicing?"

"Ah? Senior brother, how did you know?"

Mao Ruxue was instantly shocked and a little confused by Chen Chang'an's words.

When she was practicing, she did go to the waterfall on the Hidden Dao Mountain.

Chen Chang'an slowly said,

"In the past, it was rumored that when one of the Four Hall Masters of the Hall of Rebirth, Emperor Song, first emerged, he possessed a Buddhist Gate Divine Ability and a Daoist Divine Ability."

"One was called 'Great Principle Mirage,' and the other Divine Ability was called 'Bodhi Rebirth.'"

"These two Divine Abilities were only abandoned by Emperor Song after he became Ksitigarbha and turned to cultivate two other more powerful Divine Abilities."

"When asked how he integrated these two different Daoist and Buddhist Divine Abilities, Ksitigarbha said this."

"During cultivation, one must find a place where yin and yang converge, with half of the environment bathed in the light of the sun and the other half reflecting in the water, cleansing oneself in this way for seventy-nine days, and then success can be achieved."

"In later interpretations, people believed that the sun represented light, and the water represented a waterfall formed by the gathering of spiritual springs."

"Half sun, half water, symbolizes exposing half of the body to the impact of the water flow and the other half exposed to the air."

"After practicing like this for seventy-nine days, success can be achieved."

"Am I right?"

After finishing, Chen Chang'an looked at Mao Ruxue, and in his bright eyes, galaxies were reflected.

"Huh? Senior brother, you... you! Are you also a fan of Emperor Song?!"

Mao Ruxue stood up in astonishment, her eyes staring at Chen Chang'an in disbelief, her mouth wide open.

In this shock, there was also a kind of joy of finding a kindred spirit in a foreign land.

Uh,

A fan of Emperor Song?

Seeing the little girl's reaction, Chen Chang'an suddenly felt that she seemed to have misunderstood something.

"Well, of course."

"Emperor Song, such an extraordinary man, unmatched in talent throughout history."

"Although I cannot cultivate, I naturally admire such a person."

Chen Chang'an said again.

"Wow, senior brother, I'm also a fan of Emperor Song!"

Mao Ruxue became even more excited, finding a kindred spirit in a foreign land.

In the past, she didn't dare to tell anyone that she admired Emperor Song because, no matter what, Emperor Song was a great demon.

As a righteous person, admiring a great demon would surely be laughed at if it were known.

But now she's not afraid anymore because it seems like her senior brother also admires Emperor Song.

Hmm, no wonder he's a fan of Emperor Song, he even managed to win over my senior brother.

Impressive!

But,

"Extraordinary man?"

"Senior brother, how do you know that Emperor Song is a man?"

Mao Ruxue asked her question.

"I guessed."

"Based on Emperor Song's behavior over the years, I deduced that he should be a man."

"Oh, I see,"

Mao Ruxue nodded as if she understood.

"I've been wrong all this time."

"I thought Emperor Song was a woman, like Meng Po."

"Senior brother, do you think I should apologize to Emperor Song?"

"I..." Chen Chang'an.
