Fairy, Don't Be Afraid, I Am Blind

Chapter 131 - 109: Senior Sister Leads the Way

This is the time of Si, a crucial part of the day for cultivation. Within the vast sect, mist envelops, and the ancient bell’s sound, profound and heavy, awakens the heart of the Divine Sect’s people to the path.

Fairy Wangshu and You Su have already descended the mountain. The path down the mountain is long and can only be walked, and the two have been walking for a while.

You Su paused, turning back to look at the ethereal Lotus Peak. Of course, he couldn’t fully see the entirety of the Thirteen Peaks, just recalling the path down in his mind, unwilling to rely on his senior sister’s company every time he descended.

His memory wasn’t bad, but the mountain path was too winding and complicated. Even he couldn’t remember it all, truly wondering how his senior sister remembered it, so he couldn’t help but ask:

"Senior Sister, why don’t we pave the path of our Lotus Peak with profound rock since it’s so hard to walk?"

Paving with rock not only makes walking easier but also indicates where the path leads.

"Master doesn’t like it that way; aside from that small courtyard, there are no other human traces on Lotus Peak. Besides, almost no one goes up Lotus Peak, and it’s just me and Master up there; we don’t need it."

You Su nodded secretly. No wonder he found it hard to detect any traces of a path with his Divine Sense; it turned out no one tread it. Thinking of his senior sister and master’s personalities, apart from those elders with peak cultivation, there would certainly be no visitors.

"Is Junior Brother not used to it? I can pave the way for you."

You Su would never let such an ethereal fairy like his senior sister do such menial work.

"No need, Senior Sister."

Afraid that his senior sister would silently carry stones for him, he added:

"Master wouldn’t easily forgive me if he knew you did such a thing for me."

"If Junior Brother doesn’t want me to do it, I could ask the Eighth Elder from Earth and Wood Peak. Every time he comes to teach, he tells me he wants to build us a new high tower and pave a road."

You Su couldn’t help but laugh; indeed, the Eighth Elder fits the name of that peak.

"Truly no need, Senior Sister. I’ll remember if I walk it a few more times."

Although he was blind, he didn’t want to alter Lotus Peak’s original appearance for special treatment.

"Junior Brother, there’s no need to remember it; there is no path up or down the mountain. Now that you belong to Lotus Peak, just follow your intuition, and you’ll surely reach the summit."

That explains why the path felt strange during the descent; it turns out Senior Sister was just winging it.

"What about those who are not from Lotus Peak?" You Su asked again.

"Without guidance, they’d get lost in the peak and eventually return to the foot of the mountain."

You Su nodded, thinking it somewhat immortal-like.

...

In no time, the two had walked out of Lotus Peak’s boundary and entered the real courtyard of the Profound Sky Sect.

You Su took a deep breath, feeling the pleasant fragrance, guessing the sect was planted with immortal plants and spiritual flowers. He rotated his foot, and the ground beneath was flat and solid, paved with profound rock. Above, the calls of cranes echoed back and forth, and You Su thought to himself, this must be the true majesty of an immortal family.

"Junior Brother, hold me tight." Fairy Wangshu suddenly opened her arms towards You Su, her white dress flowing, her curves graceful.

"Wha- what’s the matter?" You Su was stunned, not comprehending her intention.

"We’ll fly over."

Most places within the sect do not prohibit flying, and Fairy Wangshu, being in the Feather Transformation Realm, could naturally fly directly to the destination, saving much effort.

"Does Senior Sister have a magical artifact to carry people?"

There were no people near them, but not far away, there were already bustling disciples. You Su really didn’t want to be held like a child by his senior sister and flown in the sky in front of everyone. Though new, he still had some dignity.

Moreover, he had always taught his senior sister the propriety between men and women; how could he get closer to Wuxia Senior Sister?

Fairy Wangshu gently shook her head and said, "I don’t, but I can carry Junior Brother to fly."

Senior Sister, why do you always want to take me flying?

"Senior Sister, is the scripture hall far?"

"How far is considered far?"

You Su, helpless, could only say, "Senior Sister, Junior Brother is a bit afraid of heights, let’s walk. Why don’t you point me the way, and I’ll go by myself, it’s not a big deal, you just wait for me at the peak."

Fairy Wangshu responded quickly and firmly:

"I’ll walk with Junior Brother."

You Su smiled slightly, feeling that good deeds lead to good returns; being so good to his junior sister, it’s only natural for the senior sister to treat him well. He only sighed that senior sister was indeed pure; she even believed a blind person’s fear of heights.

"Thank you, Senior Sister."

Fairy Wangshu’s eyes were clear and bright. After glancing at You Su, she quietly took a step closer to him and walked alongside him.

"What’s that building?"

"That building is Bihua Residence, and behind it is Bihua Peak where the Third Elder resides. The Third Elder excels in cultivating spirit plants and loves drinking, so disciples in the sect also brew wine and sell the excess."

"Can the disciples cultivating in the sect drink freely? Is there no management?"

"The wine brewed from immortal plants is immortal wine, even more beneficial than some spirit pills, so of course it can be drunk. But there are many regulations, and severe penalties for violations."

"What about those buildings over there?"

In the broad square of the Profound Sky Sect, Fairy Wangshu, wearing a jade rabbit mask, and You Su, dressed in a simple black robe, walked slowly, conversing continuously.

In terms of appearance and temperament alone, they already painted a picture of walking immortals.

As they walked along, You Su keenly noticed that the cultivators coming toward them would silently step aside, giving him and his senior sister a clear path. However, after making way, these people often stood aside and watched them, whispering about something.

The discussions mainly revolved around them, marveling at how the usually aloof Fairy Wangshu would reveal herself in public, accompanied by such a handsome man. Then they speculated wildly about You Su’s identity and their relationship.
