Longevity Begins With The Birth Of A Daughter At An Old Age

Chapter 103: Su Xin Palace

In the vast sea of Cangming, five hundred miles south of the Daylight City, at the center of a massive island, atop a thousand-zhang peak, a waterfall cascades down from the summit, resembling the Milky Way descending from the heavens.

On the mist-shrouded peak, with undulating heights and adorned with carved beams and painted rafters, there are palaces nestled within, resembling the abode of immortals.

This is the residence of Elder Nangong Suyi, one of the elders of the Inner Gate of the Four Seas Immortal Palace—Su Xin Palace!

After delivering the letter of introduction, Xu Mu waited on the island for five days before being allowed to enter Su Xin Palace to pay his respects.

"Having a Gold Core stage face is truly advantageous!" Xu Mu muttered to himself as he surveyed the surroundings on the mountaintop.

Following the young woman in the green robe, they walked for a long time until they stopped in front of a five-story pavilion.

"Go in! The Patriarch is waiting for you inside!" The expressionless young woman gestured with her empty hand and stood in place, watching him.

"Thank you, Senior Sister!" Xu Mu smiled and cupped his hands in gratitude.

The young woman in the green robe looked at him indifferently, without any response.

Xu Mu awkwardly smiled, then stepped onto the bluestone steps and walked to the entrance of the pavilion.

"Disciple Xu Mu pays respects to Elder Nangong!" Xu Mu bowed respectfully.

"Come in!"

A feeble and aged voice came from inside the pavilion.

"Yes!"

The door creaked open automatically.

Xu Mu's gaze flickered for a moment, and he stepped inside.

Crossing the threshold, he entered a spacious hall. An elderly woman with wrinkled silver hair leaned on a black wooden cane, sitting on the large chair at the head, looking at him.

On the left side of the elderly woman was a white-clad woman with her hair tied up high. She had an extremely beautiful appearance, with a breathtaking charm that could make one's heart skip a beat with just a glance.

Compared to the white junior sister at the Heaven Mending Pavilion who was at the Gold Core stage, she was no less inferior.

With just her natural appearance, the woman before him possessed the power of top-tier allure.

How could there be such a stunning woman in the world?

Xu Mu was shocked.

He didn't dare to look too much and lowered his head slightly in the middle of the hall.

"Where are the pills?"

The elderly woman didn't waste any words and directly asked.

Xu Mu took out the top-grade Rejuvenation Pill. The white-clad woman took a few steps forward, grabbed the pill bottle, and turned around to hand it to the elderly woman.

The elderly woman opened the pill bottle and poured out a pill. With her withered chicken claw-like fingers, she pinched it and examined it closely.

"Are you sure this is a top-grade Rejuvenation Pill?" the elderly woman asked coldly.

"I dare not deceive you, Elder!" Xu Mu hurriedly replied.

The old woman hesitated for a moment, then suddenly let go of her ebony cane, pinched a hand gesture with one hand, and then pointed it at her own brow.

Gudugu!

Starting from the old woman's fingertip, blood vessels as thick as earthworms wriggled and spread throughout her body.

Her withered skin quickly swelled, becoming smooth and rosy.

The old woman, who had originally looked old and feeble, transformed in the blink of an eye into a woman with deep and powerful aura, her hair silver.

In the beautiful eyes of the woman in white, a complex expression flashed, and she couldn't help but turn her head to glance at Xu Mu.

This transformation comes at a cost. If the elixir doesn't work, this guy will definitely suffer a lesson.

After the old woman completed her transformation, she immediately took the Rejuvenation Pill, closed her eyes, and felt the changes in the medicine's power.

After a moment, she opened her eyes, revealing a hint of joy.

Judging from the rate at which her appearance was deteriorating, it was indeed an excellent Rejuvenation Pill without a doubt.

Seeing the joy on Nangong Suyi's face, the woman in white breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

In an instant, the whole world became bright!

Xu Mu, who happened to catch a glimpse, couldn't help but feel his heart pounding.

What a monster!

Xu Mu was shocked and quickly turned his head.

This woman is simply a monster, her beauty has surpassed normal comprehension.

The only flaw on her body is probably the lack of any curves on her chest, it's completely flat.

Noticing Xu Mu's strange expression, Nangong Suyi raised her head slightly and only then did she notice the woman's smile. She cleared her throat and reminded the woman in white.

The woman in white woke up from her daze and quickly restrained her smile.

"Speak! What do you want?"

"The junior wants to apprentice under the senior!"

"..."

Nangong Suyi and the woman in white were both stunned, probably not expecting Xu Mu to make such a request.

Nangong Suyi's gaze flickered for a moment, she pondered for a moment, and then said, "I can agree to your request, but you will have to provide me with this kind of elixir on a long-term basis in the future! Of course, I won't take advantage of you just because I'm older!"

This was originally a transaction. With Nangong Suyi's identity, it was impossible for her to not be able to obtain top-grade Rejuvenation Pills. The key was that she didn't have a stable source.

"Disciple understands! Disciple has seen Master!"

Although Xu Mu had anticipated that the other party would not refuse, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed in his heart and immediately stepped forward to pay his respects.

Nangong Suyi accepted it calmly.

After Xu Mu finished paying his respects, she flicked her sleeve and a jade talisman flew out from inside, landing in front of Xu Mu.

"This seventh-grade protective talisman will be considered as a gift from your master!"

"Thank you, Master!"

Xu Mu, who didn't expect such a good thing, couldn't help but smile with joy.

Although he could afford a seventh-grade protective talisman, it wasn't easy to come by.

Indeed, the camel that starved to death is still bigger than a horse.

Becoming Nangong Suyi's disciple this time might be a good decision.

"Wu Xin, you take him to get the waist token and send a message to the Immortal Palace!"

"Yes, Master!"

The woman in white slightly bowed and walked briskly to Xu Mu's side.

Xu Mu immediately felt a strange fragrance wafting towards him and couldn't help but take a small sniff.

"Follow me!"

The woman in white's voice was cold, with a hint of masculine heaviness.

"Then I'll trouble Senior Sister Wu Xin!"

Xu Mu bowed and prepared to follow her out.

Nan Gong Suyi, sitting in the chair, heard Xu Mu's address to the woman in white and her eyebrows couldn't help but twitch.

Just as she was about to walk towards the woman in white, she suddenly stopped in her tracks, turned her head, and looked at him with a cold expression.

"Senior Sister, is there something wrong?"

Xu Mu couldn't figure out the situation for a moment and touched his face, suspecting that he had something dirty on it.

"I am a man!"

Mo Wu Xin gritted his silver teeth, and a terrifying spiritual pressure, like an overturning sea, emanated from his body, causing Xu Mu to involuntarily take a step back.

"If you dare to call me that again, don't blame me for being impolite!"

After speaking, Mo Wu Xin walked out with a cold face.

"Yes, yes!"

Xu Mu repeatedly agreed, but secretly wiped away a cold sweat in his heart.

This woman, no, this guy is really strong!

At this moment, Xu Mu was not only shocked by the other person's gender, but also by their strength.

Mo Wu Xin was only in the late stage of Foundation Building, but the pressure he gave Xu Mu was like that of a Gold Core cultivator.

This is definitely a freak, not just in appearance!

By the way, I seemed to have taken a sniff just now...

Ugh!!

Suppressing the nausea in his heart, Xu Mu hurriedly caught up.

Watching the backs of the two as they left, a hint of surprise flashed in Nan Gong Suyi's eyes.

Mo Wu Xin was not only her disciple, but also her blood relative. No one understood him better than she did.

Mo Wu Xin had extremely high talent, whether it was cultivation techniques or Divine Abilities, he would learn them as soon as he studied them, and he would become proficient after practicing them. However, due to his Dragon's Roar physique, he had been unable to advance to the Gold Core stage.

Although his cultivation realm couldn't be improved, his strength didn't slow down at all. The cultivation technique he primarily practiced, "Limitless Heaven Art," had long reached the level of a grandmaster, and the Divine Ability he primarily practiced, "Heavenly Water of Oneness," was close to the ninth level of transcendence.

His true strength was stronger than an ordinary Gold Core cultivator.

If it weren't for his physical limitations, Mo Wu Xin would definitely be one of the most dazzling geniuses in the Four Seas Immortal Palace.

As for the guy in front of her, he had just advanced to the fourth level of Foundation Building and seemed ordinary, yet he was able to withstand Mo Wu Xin's spiritual pressure.

It had to be said, it was interesting!

Being able to refine top-grade Rejuvenation Pills and having such a solid foundation, if it weren't for her impending death, she could truly accept him and cultivate him with all her heart.

But for now--

Better forget it!

She doesn't have the mood or energy to start cultivating a disciple from scratch again.

Moreover, the other party already has a foundation and is not following the same path as her, so it would be difficult to cultivate them.

"After I pass away, let Wu Xin expel him! This person with unknown origins and ulterior motives will only bring disaster if they stay in Su Xin Palace!"

...

"From now on, this will be your residence! There are many female disciples in Su Xin Palace, so don't wander around if you have nothing to do. If something happens, even your master won't be able to save you!"

At a small courtyard located on the edge of a mountain peak, Mo Wu Xin handed the token for controlling the formation to Xu Mu.

"Thank you, senior... for the reminder!" Xu Mu politely said.

Mo Wu Xin ignored him and left.

Watching Mo Wu Xin's figure disappear into the distance, Xu Mu shook his head helplessly.

It seems that not only is Nan Gong Su Yi's personality unsociable, but her disciples are also not that great.

"Fortunately, I didn't plan to live here. I don't have to face a group of dead-faced people every day!"

Controlling the token, Xu Mu opened the formation and walked into the courtyard.

The courtyard was not big, with a total area of about three to four hundred square meters. The layout was simple, consisting of a courtyard and four houses.

Due to lack of maintenance, the courtyard was overgrown with weeds and a type of unknown purple flowers. There was also a thriving ginkgo tree, under which was a stone table and two stone stools covered in decaying ginkgo leaves.

The four houses, built with blue stones, were connected to each other. The tables, chairs, and stools inside the houses were complete, but covered in dust.

Obviously, no one had lived here for a long time.

However, the spiritual energy here was still abundant, three points higher than Zhe Feng City. If it were to be rented out, it would be worth at least five medium-grade spirit stones per month.

If it weren't for hiding his identity and letting Ye Ying Ying and the others move here, it would be quite good. Not only would they not have to pay rent, but it would also be much safer than in the city.

After wandering around the courtyard for a while, Xu Mu returned to the house, used a purification talisman to clean up a clean area, and took out a cushion from his storage bag to sit on.

Then he took out three things from his storage bag.

A blue jade talisman!

A bottle of Foundation Nurturing Pill!

A green third-grade robe!

These were the things given to him after becoming a disciple of Su Xin Palace.

The blue jade talisman represented his identity as a waist token, the Foundation Nurturing Pill was a benefit for direct disciples, one bottle per year, and the robe was the uniform of Su Xin Palace disciples, given to every entry-level disciple, but the grade varied.

Apart from the identity token, Xu Mu didn't really care about the other two items. He simply played with them for a while before putting them away.

After meditating and resting for one night, on the second day, Xu Mu planned to visit the neighbors around, but ended up being rejected twice. He simply gave up and flew away from Su Xin Palace.

He only came here to increase his authority and had no intention of staying here permanently. Now that things were settled, there was no need to stay.

He flew all the way to Zhi Ming City, waited for a day, and then boarded a giant flying ship back to Zhe Feng City.

Ever since the incident where he almost got caught and used as a cauldron by the Bu Tian Pavilion woman, Xu Mu would choose to take a giant flying ship whenever he went a little further away.

Not only were there experts on the giant flying ship, but the force behind it, the Qun Xing Men, was the strongest power in the entire Cang Ming Sea Region. Unless it was an extremely daring and reckless robber, no one dared to make a move.

After safely returning to Zhe Feng City, Xu Mu immediately went to the branch of the Four Seas Immortal Palace to purchase the medicinal materials for refining the Youth-Preserving Pill.

"Four-star authority, can only purchase thirty portions per year."

"Thirty portions? That's so little!"
