BXBX NOVEL Chapter 237: 236: Eldest Senior Sister's Age_1
“Absolutely, absolutely won’t imitate!” Lu Yang pledged.
“Alright, I’m going to cultivate now, you continue to select a golden core forming method.”
“Yes.”
Having understood the specifics of Eldest Senior Sister’s golden core formation, Lu Yang abandoned any thought of imitation, not leaving behind even a shred.
Her method of golden core formation was too extraordinary, he was just an ordinary Sword Spirit Root, undistinguished, he didn’t have Eldest Senior Sister’s kind of genius.
The old nursery rhyme was “Twinkle Twinkle little star”. Now should it be changed to “Twinkle Twinkle little golden core”?
Rational, fits well.
With one problem solved, another question surged into his mind – just how old was Eldest Senior Sister?
Exactly how many hundreds of years old?
Lu Yang felt an urge to unearth the truth.
Lu Yang remembered the first round of the sect entry selection was conducted by Elder Brother Dai. As long as one touched him, Elder Brother Dai could tell a person’s spirit root and age: “Fairy, do you have any magic skill that can see through a person’s age?”
“Yes.”
Lu Yang had just absentmindedly asked, thinking it was unthinkable, but it really existed?
Worthy of being a fairy.
“Hehe, this magic of mine is quite something, capable of disregarding the person’s cultivation level and seeing their age.”
“That powerful?!”
“Of course, don’t you know who I am!”
This was a minor magic, or rather, a small trick. Simple to learn, once Lu Yang recited the ancient language and practiced twice, he had learned it.
Lu Yang activated the ancient magic, and it felt as though his vision suddenly widened, as if he had grasped some understanding.
“Let’s try it on myself first.”
Lu Yang spread his hands and saw the number sixteen in front of him.
Correct, he was currently just sixteen years old.
“Look at Fairy again.” Lu Yang utilized the ancient magic to look at the calm and composed Fairy Eternity, and the number sixteen also appeared in front of him.
“Huh?”
Although Fairy Eternity had always boasted about herself being a genius beautiful young girl, who passed away at a young age and was currently only sixteen years old.
Even if Lu Yang used his butt to think, he would know this was all bull.
Turned immortal at sixteen, each epoch is one year, right?
With a puzzled heart, Lu Yang looked at a passing senior brother, he was also displayed as sixteen year old!
“…Fairy, is there a problem with this magic? Why do I see everyone as sixteen years old?” Considering his shameful past, Lu Yang first suspected that he had cultivated incorrectly.
Fairy Eternity spoke confidently: “Don’t worry about whether the age you saw is correct or not, just say if you can disregard cultivation level and see the age!”
“…”
Fairy Eternity continued: “In ancient times, everyone liked to use age to determine their seniority, this isn’t good. Does that mean if someone is older, they are always correct, and if someone is younger, they are always wrong?”
“In order to change this situation, I specifically created this magic that sees everyone as sixteen years old, but unfortunately my idea was too advanced at that time, people could not accept it.”
“Your idea is still very advanced even now.”
So how to calculate Eldest Senior Sister’s age?
The first method that comes to mind for Lu Yang is to ask which batch of disciples she was.
Seek Dao Sect, or rather, the Five Great Immortal Sects’ disciples recruitment have a regular schedule, every three years, never interrupted.
He quickly dismissed this method.
Seek Dao Sect even recruited Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, the entry threshold seeming low, but in reality very outrageously high. The number of disciples recruited in Lu Yang’s batch was already considered a lot.
Some people who came for the selection meet the spirit root standards, but do not meet the willpower standards, they couldn’t enter Seek Dao Sect, causing instances when Seek Dao Sect simply didn’t recruit anyone.
So, Lu Yang couldn’t calculate Eldest Senior Sister’s age by determining which batch of disciples she was.
“Then just ask Elder Brother Dai? Elder Brother Dai and Eldest Senior Sister were from the same batch, he should definitely know Eldest Senior Sister’s age!”
Lu Yang decided to do it immediately, but because the third test for entering the sect was his alone facing Elder Brother Dai he always felt guilty.
Find a helper.
“We’re going to Elder Brother Dai to ask about Eldest Senior Sister’s age?” Hearing Lu Yang’s plan, Meng Jingzhou showed an eager expression.
“We won’t be caught by Eldest Sister, right?”
“No, Eldest Senior Sister was cultivating when I left and doesn’t have time to pay attention to us.”
“Then what are you waiting for, let’s go.” Meng Jingzhou urged Lu Yang to hurry up and leave.
…
“You guys want to ask about Eldest Senior Sister’s age, huh?” Dai Bufan looked at Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou with a weird expression.
“You guys have guts, daring to ask even this kind of secret? Be careful not to attract trouble.” Elder Brother Dai kindly warned the two, this matter was a top secret of Seek Dao Sect, the degree of confidentiality was even above that of Dao Fruit intelligence, it must not be disclosed to anyone.
“Do you know what happened to the disciple who last asked this question?”
“Just casually asking.” Meng Jingzhou put on a business-like smile that looked very fake.
“Yeah yeah, we both are just concerned about Eldest Senior Sister. We feel that she’s working very hard day and night for this sect and it’s difficult. Only if we know her age can we give her the right gifts.” Lu Yang had a similar smile on his face as Meng Jingzhou.
Dai Bufan rolled his eyes, there were ghosts if he believed these two.
This is a taboo topic, absolutely not to be discussed.
“Aren’t you afraid Eldest Senior Sister will learn of this?”
Meng Jingzhou glimmered a smile: “Eldest Senior Sister is currently cultivating and has no spare time to take care of us here, as long as Elder Brother Dai doesn’t say anything, Eldest Senior Sister will not know about this!”
Dai Bufan gently shook his head: “Eldest Senior Sister has the ability to see through everything and everywhere, how can she not know this? I advise you from my heart, just stop asking about this, it’s very dangerous.”
“There won’t be any danger.” Meng Jingzhou thought this matter was not a big deal.
Hearing this, Dai Bufan said with a smile that wasn’t really a smile: “Really? Since that’s the case, why not turn around and ask the person in question directly?”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
The two of them felt a grave foreboding, feeling the temperature around them plummet rapidly, as if they were about to be frozen into ice sculptures.
Both men turned stiffly and saw Eldest Senior Sister standing behind them. Standing tall and graceful, emotionless as she looked at Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, not revealing any happiness or anger.
Dai Bufan sighed: “See, I’ve already told you, don’t ask this question, it will bring disaster.”
Ever since the two of them found him, Eldest Senior Sister had been standing quietly behind, Dai Bufan was giving frantic hints, but these two were hellbent on courting disaster and couldn’t be dragged back.
Maybe they deserved this disaster.
Eldest Senior Sister spoke softly: “Junior Brother.”
Lu Yang trembled, hastily answering: “Here!”
“Junior Brother Meng.”
“Here!”
“Are you two finding cultivation boring that you care about such a small matter in your free time?”
Eldest Senior Sister’s voice was unusually gentle, sounding as if she were concerned about Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou’s cultivation progress.
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou broke into cold sweats, completely soaking their clothes, trembling, they didn’t know what to say.
