Chapter 382: Lin Xintong Comes Out of Reclusive Training
“Just now when you were working on the desolate bone, there were some parts where you were inadequate…” As Su Jie spoke, he demonstrated the Mystic Crystal Hand once again. This time, Su Jie was even more serious. Every movement was broken down into parts, as he patiently taught Yi Yun.
Once Su Jie became serious, he was indeed an excellent master. Yi Yun had no problems in energy control, but he needed plenty of time to practice the sealing techniques.
Su Jie did not speak much and demonstrated it again and again for Yi Yun. From the Mystic Crystal Hand to the Small Thousand Seal, every runic seal was broken down into parts for Yi Yun. This carried on through the night, till it was early next morning.
Before they knew it, the two of them had been in the bone refinement room for more than 20 hours.
Yi Yun was covered in sweat as it was very draining to use the Purple Crystal continuously.
On the other hand, the old man Su Jie was still as fit as a fiddle.
And at this moment, a spark flashed in front of Su Jie’s eyes. It was the beam from a voice transmission charm.
“Oh? Xintong is coming out!”
Su Jie’s words made Yi Yun’s heart thump. He stopped forming his hand seals. Lin Xintong was coming out?
Previously, Su Jie had passed a message to Lin Xintong. Now, with her coming out, it was clearly to meet Su Jie.
“I’m going to meet Xintong. Right… why don’t you come with me?” Su Jie suddenly said to Yi Yun.
Yi Yun was stunned for a while. I can go too?
For this girl who he was indebted to and not met for two years, Yi Yun really wanted to meet her again.
Yi Yun followed Su Jie and left the Tian Hua peak. They headed to one of the other main peaks, the Jade Bamboo peak.
The Jade Bamboo peak was in the central region of the 18 main peaks. The mountain peak was not very high and it was covered in arrays. Jade bamboo grew throughout the year, despite the seasons. The peak had beautiful scenery.
At this moment, Yi Yun landed on the Jade Bamboo peak. It was early in the morning and it was misty. Looking down, all he saw was a sea of clouds. Above the clouds, there were green bamboo forests. It looked like an immortal paradise.
The Lin family’s females mainly lived on the Jade Bamboo peak. Usually, male members of the Lin family could go up the mountain, but males were restricted from the back mountain regions.
Su Jie took Yi Yun to a Jade Bamboo Temple on the mountain peak. The entire Jade Bamboo Temple was built inside a bamboo forest. The tiles used for the temple’s dome were made of jade making the entire place look green.
This made the Jade Bamboo Temple appear very harmonious with the Jade Bamboo. It was as if this temple was not man-made, and it was a natural occurrence from the bamboo forest.
A maid servant had been waiting at the door. When Yi Yun and Su Jie arrived, she took them inside.
In the Jade Bamboo Temple, there was pine and cypress trees interweaving with the jade bamboo everywhere.
And what made Yi Yun surprised was that many of the structures inside the Jade Bamboo Temple were made of bamboo or pine. These structures had the scent of bamboo and pine and it made one feel relaxed.
“The Lin family’s Matriarch likes bamboo. This Jade Bamboo Temple was also built by Her Aged Reverent.”
When Su Jie said this to Yi Yun, Yi Yun was slightly stunned. From Su Jie’s tone, this old granny’s age was not low. Even Su Jie himself addressed her as Her Aged Reverent. She was at least 40,000-50,000 years old?
The maid servant took Yi Yun and Su Jie through a yard till they arrived at a newly built bamboo hut.
Yi Yun could see a beautiful girl dressed in white in the distance. She held a long sword in her hand and she was practicing her swordplay amongst the bamboo trees.
Her motions did not seem fast, but they gave a feeling of freely flowing water and floating clouds. Every stab of the sword would cause the surrounding bamboo leaves to fly around. Under the girl’s sword, these bamboo leaves seemed to possess some soul as if they were alive.
This girl was the person who Yi Yun had not seen in two years, Lin Xintong.
Su Jie stopped in his footsteps as he watched Lin Xintong practicing her swordplay. His eyes were filled with love. Having not seen her for two years, Lin Xintong’s sword skills had greatly improved yet again. A nonchalant brandish of her sword would become one joined with the surrounding environment. If it was described, this realm could be called, “one sword, one scene”.
Every sword move would present a different scene to the people watching the swordplay.
“Master!”
Seeing Su Jie, Lin Xintong stopped. A happy smile hung on her face. After separating from Su Jie, she had always been thinking of him. This was because she knew that Su Jie had entered a very dangerous mystic realm. She was naturally worried since she had not heard any news from him for two years.
“Oh? You are…Yi Yun?”
Lin Xintong saw Yi Yun and she w
