Chapter 248 Gathering Immortals Pavilion
This pavilion is the Gathering Immortals Pavilion of the Lingxu Sect.
Juxian Pavilion is situated beside a small lake. The pavilion is surrounded by exotic flowers and rare herbs. The lake water is crystal clear, and occasionally, spirit fish swim in the water, creating a peaceful and tranquil scene.
At this moment, five people are sitting inside the pavilion.
Three men and two women, each with a different temperament, yet all possessed a calm demeanor and profound cultivation; they were clearly not ordinary people.
They sat around a stone table, on which were placed spiritual tea and spiritual fruit, talking in hushed tones in a very harmonious atmosphere.
"Brother Wei Yu, look, those are my senior brothers and sisters." Xuan Qing pointed to the five people in the pavilion and said to Wei Yu.
Wei Yu raised his head and looked at the five people in the pavilion, scrutinizing them carefully.
On the far left is a young man wearing a white Taoist robe.
The young man had a handsome face, a gentle smile that always graced his lips, and a kind and refined demeanor that gave people a feeling of warmth and comfort.
His aura was profound and restrained, faintly exuding the pressure of a late-stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.
On the other side sat a young man dressed in a red Taoist robe.
The young man had a resolute face and sharp eyes. His aura was violent and fiery, carrying a murderous air, clearly indicating that he had been training outside for many years and had experienced many battles.
A young man dressed in a blue Taoist robe sat next to him.
The boy looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, with delicate features and bright eyes. Although his aura was not as strong as Yu Huai's and Xue Yang's, it had still reached the late stage of the Golden Core Realm, showing exceptional talent.
On the other side of the stone table sat two women.
The woman on the left is dressed in a blue Taoist robe. She is stunningly beautiful, with a gentle temperament, a faint smile on her lips, and tender eyes, giving people a friendly feeling.
Her aura was warm and mellow, reaching the level of the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
The woman on the right, dressed in a white Taoist robe, had a cold and aloof appearance, a pale face, no smile, and indifferent eyes. She exuded a faint chill that made people want to stay away.
Her aura was also at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm; she had a cold and aloof demeanor and rarely smiled.
Five people, five different temperaments, yet each one is a powerful figure. It must be said that the Lingxu Sect is indeed very good at recruiting disciples.
"Senior brothers and sisters, I'm back!" Xuan Qing led Wei Yu and Han Xuanxuan into Juxian Pavilion and called out with a smile.
The five people in the pavilion stopped talking immediately upon hearing Xuan Qing's voice and turned to look at him.
"Hey, Xuanqing, you've finally arrived!" Yu Huai spoke first, his smile widening, his tone warm and friendly. "We've been waiting for you for quite a while."
"Yes, Fifth Junior Brother, why are you only arriving now?" Jingming asked with a smile, looking at Xuanqing with tender eyes. "And who are these two people beside you?"
Han Xuanxuan immediately ran to Jingming's side, hugged her arm, and said in a coquettish tone, "Second Senior Sister, it's me, Xuanxuan! Don't you recognize me?"
Jingming chuckled and ruffled Han Xuanxuan's hair, his tone indulgent: "Haha, how could you not recognize our Xuanxuan?"
"It's only been a few years, but our Xuanxuan has grown even more beautiful. I almost didn't recognize you."
Xueyang also spoke up, "Junior Sister, it's been a long time. It seems you've been doing well in the sect all these years."
Xia Gui smiled at Han Xuanxuan and said, "Junior Sister Xuanxuan, it's been a long time."
Only Ning Shuang remained expressionless, merely glancing at Han Xuanxuan indifferently without speaking, maintaining her cold demeanor.
Han Xuanxuan was already used to Ning Shuang's indifference and wasn't angry. She still smiled and said, "I'm doing very well in the sect. Master and Senior Brother Xuanqing take good care of me!"
Xuan Qing walked to Wei Yu's side and introduced him to the five people in the pavilion: "Senior brothers and sisters, this is my friend, Wei Yu. He is also a transmigrator from Earth."
"He's amazing. Last time I went out on a mission and encountered danger, it was Brother Wei Yu who saved my life!"
Upon hearing Xuan Qing's words, all five people focused their attention on Wei Yu, scrutinizing him carefully.
Yu Huai's gaze was gentle and friendly, without the slightest hint of contempt; Xue Yang's gaze was sharp and scrutinizing, as if assessing Wei Yu's strength; Xia Gui's gaze was curious and lively, full of inquiry; Jing Ming's gaze was gentle and kind, with a hint of goodwill; while Ning Shuang's gaze remained indifferent, glancing at Wei Yu before looking away, as if Wei Yu were just an insignificant stranger.
Wei Yu showed no nervousness, calmly meeting everyone's gaze with a faint smile and a composed expression.
Yu Huai was the first to stand up and walk towards Wei Yu, his face still bearing a gentle smile, his tone friendly: "This must be Brother Wei Yu, I've heard so much about you!"
"I am Yu Huai, the senior disciple of Xuanqing."
As he spoke, Yu Huai extended his right hand, smiling at Wei Yu, and said, "According to our Earthly customs, we should shake hands when we meet, hahaha!"
With Yu Huai's laughter, his right hand steadily reached out to Wei Yu.
Wei Yu felt a warmth in his heart.
He immediately extended his right hand, grasped Yu Huai's hand, and said with a smile, "Hello, Senior Brother Yu Huai."
"Speaking of which, I really miss the days on Earth. Back then, a handshake was the most friendly way to greet someone. I am Wei Yu."
Their hands were clasped tightly together.
Wei Yu could clearly feel that Yu Huai's palm was warm and powerful, and a strong spiritual energy emanated from his palm. Clearly, the other party was secretly testing his strength.
Wei Yu neither concealed anything nor deliberately showed weakness. The power of homecoming within his body circulated slightly, and a gentle yet profound force emanated from his palm, responding to Yu Huai's probing.
A hint of surprise flashed in Yu Huai's eyes. He hadn't expected Wei Yu to be so powerful.
Although Wei Yu appeared to be seriously injured and somewhat weak, the power within him was exceptionally profound and quite unique, faintly carrying an aura he had never seen before. Clearly, Wei Yu's origins were not simple.
"Good! Good! Good!" Yu Huai exclaimed three times, his smile widening even further. "Brother Wei Yu, you are indeed extraordinary. No wonder you were able to save that kid Xuan Qing!"
With that, Yu Huai released Wei Yu's hand, stepped aside to make room, and said to Xue Yang, "Third Junior Brother, it's your turn."
Xueyang stood up and walked towards Wei Yu.
His steps were steady, and a murderous aura emanated from him, giving people an invisible pressure.
When Xue Yang reached Wei Yu, he stopped and cupped his hands in greeting. His tone was calm but respectful: "Hello, I am Xue Yang, Xuan Qing's third senior brother."
"I'm still more used to the way we greet each other in this world, Brother Wei."
Wei Yu understood. Xue Yang had been training and fighting countless battles outside for many years and was already used to the rules of this world. He might have become somewhat unfamiliar with the habits of Earth.
He immediately cupped his hands in greeting to Xueyang and said with a smile, "Everyone has their own habits, Senior Brother Xueyang, there's no need to be so polite."
"It is my honor to know Senior Brother Xueyang."
Xue Yang nodded, the scrutiny in his eyes gradually fading, and his tone softened: "Brother Wei, you're too kind. Since you're Xuan Qing's friend, then you're our friend too."
"I've heard that Brother Wei is quite skilled. I'd like to have a friendly spar with him when the sect competition begins."
Wei Yu smiled and said frankly, "Alright, I'm always ready. I hope Senior Brother Xueyang will show mercy then."
"Hahaha, Brother Wei is too modest!" Xue Yang laughed heartily, his tone bold and unrestrained. "When the time comes, we'll stop short of a contest and learn from each other!"
After saying that, Xueyang stepped aside to make way, and it was Xia Gui's turn.
Xia Gui skipped and hopped over to Wei Yu, a bright, innocent smile on her face and lively eyes. She extended her right hand to Wei Yu and said in a clear voice, "Hello, I'm Xia Gui, Xuan Qing's seventh junior brother!"
Looking at Xia Gui's outstretched hand, Wei Yu's heart softened. He immediately reached out and gently grasped Xia Gui's hand, smiling as he said, "Hello, Junior Brother Xia Gui, I am Wei Yu."
