My Master Disconnected Yet Again (Part 3)

Chapter 486: Arriving at Hao Ran Court

"Alright, Master! No problem, Master!" Chef nodded obediently. He pretended like he did not know anything. He turned around and looked outside at the person who was still chatting happily with Chan Ji. Then, he turned back to glance at Shen Ying, who was just in front of him. For some reason, he flushed.

Suddenly, he pulled her over and planted a kiss on her lips in a flash. Then, he put distance between them again. His face turned a much deeper shade of red. He pressed his fingers to his own lips. She tasted like osmanthus cakes. She was indeed so sweet!

( ̄『̄)

Shen Ying: "..." Could he be more serious about kissing her? Did he think they were still playing games?

"Che-"

"Master, I have to go and cook now!" Before she could say a word, Chef turned around and left the room, his face still flushed red. He walked so quickly that he tripped on the door frame. As he fell, he knocked into Fatty, who was just entering the room. Both of them collapsed onto the ground and hurriedly got back to their feet. Chef turned and left without turning back.

"Lady Shen, Fellow Daoist Chef is..." Fatty, who was now bleeding from his nose, pinched his nose bridge and sat down on the ground, confused.

Shen Ying sighed. "He has meat to eat, but he insists on drinking soup made from the meat instead. Do you think he's retarded?"

"Huh huh huh?" Fatty was even more confused now. Since when was Lady Shen so cryptic when she spoke?

Lonemoon and the rest had been flying for a full three days before they finally made it through the Southern Land and arrived at the Uncrooked Sea. Chan Ji was right. There was indeed strong winds blowing atop the sea, and yin Qi was thick above the sea. Ordinary dharmic equipment would not make it through the sea successfully.

"Fellow Daoist Lonemoon..." Chan Ji pulled out his lotus stage and was just about to remind the group of the dangers associated with being out at the Uncrooked Sea.

However, Lonemoon steered the spirit boat straight into the area. The moment they entered the Uncrooked Sea, a transparent defensive array appeared around the spirit boat, surrounding it so as to block out the strong winds and rich yin Qi. Not a single breeze could be felt inside the boat.

"What were you saying?" Lonemoon turned back to look at Chan Ji.

"No... Nothing." Once again, Chan Ji kept his lotus stage back into his storage bag. For the second time, he felt shame wash over him.

The spirit boat floated over the Uncrooked Sea for two whole days before the group arrived at Hao Ran Court. From afar, they could see a golden light glowing in the middle of the sea. The dark Uncrooked Sea seemed to be split apart by that golden light. A tall mountain peak floated above the sea. Atop the mountain, there were countless golden temples. Faintly, they could make out that each of them were glowing golden as well. It was almost as if there was a huge lighthouse in the middle of the sea that was exceptionally eye-catching.

As they got closer to the mountain, they realized that the temples themselves were not golden. However, they were surrounded by a sort of Buddhist glow that made them appear golden.

"Fellow Daoists, we have arrived." Chan Ji smiled kindly.

It was then that Lonemoon steered the spirit boat toward the golden glow, stopping on a field of one of the huge temples. The moment they landed, they heard Buddhist chanting. Compared to other sect's sect masters, Chan Ji was relatively low key. Outside the temple, only two Buddhist cultivators stood guard.
