Chapter 116 – Premonition Of A Storm

Maoshan Sect’s disciple’s had relatively decent living conditions with two disciple per room. The pale green walls of the wooden huts were a refreshing scene. In the female disciple’s quarters grew several peach blossom trees, while in the male disciple’s quarters were blue willow trees. Separating the two dwellings, a wall divided them. There was also a narrow stream that ran along side the wall.

The young child guided us to an empty room, smiled and said, “The number of female disciples in our Maoshan Sect is few, including you two, there would be six altogether. And also, our Eldest Senior Sister has gone down the mountain to cultivate. Our Third Senior Sister’s body is not well so she is has gone home to recuperate and isn’t present at the moment. Second Senior Sister and Fourth Senior Sister have left for some duties, but will be coming back shortly. The two of you are able to meet them later tonight.”

Yin Zi quickly gave his thanks, “Little child, thank you for bringing us here.”

The young child’s expression became stern, in a serious manner he said, “Maoshan Sects hierarchy is ranked in order of entry, you two should address me as One Hundred and Thirty-Seventh Senior Brother."

Yin Zi who had lived for over two thousand years suddenly fell to the ground.

“But you two are very beautiful, much more beautiful than Third Senior Sister,” One Hundred and Thirty-Seventh Senior Brother continued to say, “There are more male than females here at Maoshan Sect, so in the future if you befriend and socialize with the senior brothers, they will give me profits to help them deliver their love letters.”

“Can I give you profits instead so that you can help me not deliver the love letters…..” Yin Zi lay on the table weakly, his face extremely sorrowful.

“Then that will depend on who gives the most profits.” One Hundred and Thirty-Seventh Senior Brother happily bid us farewell and left.

My eyes curiously wandered east and west exploring this new territory. Yin Zi stood frozen next to the wall making circles with his fingers, “The days in the future will be full of hardship…..”

I must find out where Xiang Qing’s room is, sneak into his room at night, and use my previous strategies to capture his heart. This wonderful idea was discarded by Yin Zi. He said it was too unreliable, and that we should become more familiar with one another before deciding on a plan. Moreover, there were barely any other woman up the mountain so Xiang Qing was basically in the palms of our hands.

Because of this, I’ve temporarily suppressed my feelings of longing and wholeheartedly focused on helping Yin Zi tidy up the room. As the sun slowly descends the western sky, sounds of laughter and chit chat travelled into our dwelling area. Yin Zi grabbed hold of me and led me towards the source of this sound. In our eyes, we saw two girls walking towards us, one in a yellow dress and the other in green. When the two met eyes with ours, their expression stilled.

The girl in green walked forward to introduce herself, her name was Yang Yi Lan, the Fourth Senior Sister. The girl in yellow introduced herself as Liu Wenzhi, the Second Senior Sister of Maoshan Sect. Seeing that they had a new additions of female disciples, the two became excited and intrigued.

Yang Yi Lan led us back to her and Liu Wenzhi’s room. With a grin on her face, she asked, “You two have also come to Maoshan Sect in search of your fated other half?”

“Not everyone is like you…..” Liu Wenzhi softly spoke.

I didn’t understand her words, and asked, “What fated other half?”

“Ai! This mountain holds more men than women therefore all the male disciples are in the palms of us females. In the future, if you find a handsome and rich Daoist, you won’t have to worry about eating and drinking expenses!” Yang Yi Lan very simply expressed her thoughts, “Because of this reason, my mother paid a large price to send me up this mountain! She says that if I don’t bring back a handsome and rich husband, then I’m not to return home!”
