Chapter 1139: Chapter 1166: How about I give you a smile? (Part 1) Chapter 1139: Chapter 1166: How about I give you a smile? (Part 1) Third Palace and Six Gates could be said to be the most powerful forces in the Central Court, maintaining a relatively stable relationship over time.

Despite countless overt and covert struggles, they also progressed together, validating each other. Ghost Granny was a stooped old woman, gaunt and nearly bending forward, and she had to make an effort to lift her head when looking at people, which seemed very forced.

However, Ghost Granny’s expression was bright and sharp, showing no signs of old age in her demeanor beyond her physically frail appearance.

Upon hearing the words of the fake old Taoist, Ghost Granny snorted coldly and said, “Fake old Taoist, after so many years of rivalry among the Third Palace and Six Gates, have you ever heard of anyone willing to admit defeat?”

About a hundred people accompanied Ghost Granny, including a few elders while the rest were mostly disciples. Clearly, the disciples of the Heavenborn Sect were numerous and each looked remarkably valiant, the women included, most of whom were around the Saint Realm.

Especially a handsome young man by the old woman’s side, who had a calm and amiable smile, following Ghost Granny with neither servility nor arrogance, his aura as vast as the sea. Judging from his aura alone and not his appearance, no one could guess that such a terrifyingly powerful practitioner was only a young man.

As soon as Ghost Granny and her party appeared, nearly everyone at the martial training ground on Lotus Mountain turned their gaze towards this young man.

“Weng Yongli!”

The fake old Taoist squinted at Weng Yongli, who stood out like a crane among chickens, and said with a chuckle, “The strength of your vital energy has indeed become purer. It seems that the Heavenborn Sect has devoted itself to your cultivation these years.”

This was obvious. Which power wouldn’t fully cultivate a disciple possessing the Quanyang Holy Root?

Ghost Granny seemed to greatly enjoy this atmosphere, smiling non-stop with squinted eyes, her form appearing less stooped.

Weng Yongli was composed, gave a standard disciple’s salute to the fake old Taoist with neither servility nor arrogance and said with a laugh, “Disciple Weng Yongli greets Elder Jia. Elder Jia praises too highly. I actually feel that Junior Sister Lin Miaoyi’s aura puts a special kind of pressure on me.”

Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed slightly.

Ghost Granny snorted coldly and said, “Lin Miaoyi possesses the Miaoshui Saint Root, which, although not comparable to the Quanyang Holy Root, is also not far behind. Surely the fake old Taoist has spared no effort in cultivating her, and now it seems she wishes to compare herself with me.”

Weng Yongli’s gaze towards Lin Miaoyi held undisguised admiration, drawing sidelong glances from the people around.

Lin Miaoyi, however, remained expressionless, her demeanor calm as she nodded and said, “How dare I compare with Senior Brother Weng.”

Seeing their disciples pretending to be ‘modest’, both the fake old Taoist and Ghost Granny snorted coldly.

The two often sparred, neither willing to concede to the other. Now, with each of their disciples being elite talents, this Third Mountain meeting was an opportunity to find a leader to enter the Emperor Road of the Grand Desolation Garden. Naturally, neither wanted to fall behind.

Ghost Granny and the fake old Taoist glared at each other, eyes locked. After a moment, they both laughed.

The fake old Taoist stroked his beard, his expression playful as he said, “I truly wonder which disciple that old codger Zhou Tong will bring.”

At the mention of Zhou Tong, Ghost Granny scoffed and said, “Sky Termination Gate has fallen off the map. Over the years, none of their disciples has been particularly outstanding, aside from that girl Yun Jin. Who else could stand out in this Third Mountain festival?”

The fake old Taoist shook his head and said, “While that girl Yun Jin has talent, she is too timid and soft-hearted, wasting her great potential. If it’s really Yun Jin who comes, then this Third Mountain festival will indeed be a competition just between our two sects.”

Hearing the name Yun Jin, Weng Yongli, who was still watching Lin Miaoyi, smiled noncommittally while Lin Miaoyi frowned, her grip on her sword involuntarily tightening.

“Junior Sister, that Weng Yongli has been watching you,” said a middle-aged woman beside Lin Miaoyi in a low voice, her face showing a curious expression.

Lin Miaoyi nodded and said, “I know!”

Her voice was ethereal, as if untouched by worldly dust. Lin Miaoyi, dressed in pure white and of a refined nature, seemed unbothered by such matters.

The middle-aged woman snorted coldly and said, “People say Weng Yongli is righteously thin as air, but Senior Sister thinks he looks like a man of integrity but is actually very cunning. Junior Sister, be careful and don’t be deceived by his appearance.”

Lin Miaoyi laughed, glanced at Weng Yongli, and shook her head, saying, “Senior Sister, don’t talk about others behind their backs. What does Weng Yongli’s temperament have to do with us?”

The middle-aged sister was stunned momentarily, then pouted and said, “Senior Sister just can’t stand the cocky look on Weng Yongli’s face.”

When Weng Yongli saw Lin Miaoyi looking his way, a smile immediately spread across his face, but just as it reached halfway, Lin Miaoyi’s gaze had already moved away, making him feel somewhat embarrassed.

Even so, many female disciples from the Green Lotus Sect took a collective sharp breath, so loud that it even made the middle-aged sister frown.

“These ignorant women!”

The middle-aged sister, angry at their incompetence, looked around and glared, immediately receiving praise and thumbs up from many male disciples.

Fake Old Dao and Ghost Granny ignored everything happening around them, now only concerned with when that old man Zhou Tong would arrive.

…

Little did Fake Old Dao and Ghost Granny know that the very Zhou Tong they were eagerly thinking about was almost pulling his hair out.

High up in the grand snowy mountains, a powerful figure like Zhou Tong knelt down like a sulking child, refusing to budge no matter how much Yang Zhen tried to pull him up.

“I’m not going,” he repeated over and over. “I’m having a bit of a life crisis right now. Let go, I need some peace and quiet!”

With Zhou Tong’s strength, how could Yang Zhen possibly pull him?

After trying for a while and hearing Zhou Tong’s words, Yang Zhen curled his lips and said, “You can’t do this, man. We’re halfway there, no, nearly there, and you just say you’re not going? Do you think Sao Saint’s time is worth nothing? Everyone’s busy, and what is this, quitting halfway?”

“Quit?” Zhou Tong glared, suddenly raising his head to stare into Yang Zhen’s eyes and said, “Well, tell me then, how should I play this out?”

Yang Zhen was taken aback, and retorted irritably, “Then why don’t you show your face? The Third Mountain Grand Assembly is eagerly waiting for your appearance. Instead, here you are, squatting in the snow without any semblance of a master, isn’t that humiliating?”

“Not humiliating!”

Zhou Tong said solemnly, “It’s truly not humiliating!”

Yang Zhen now really saw it. Compared to attending the Third Mountain Grand Assembly, squatting here truly was less humiliating!

Seeing that Zhou Tong was determined not to move, Yang Zhen simply sat down beside him, smiling and said, “Smile?”

Zhou Tong snorted, shifted away a bit, glanced at Yang Zhen, and said, “Can’t smile.”

“Then shall Sao Saint give you a smile?” Yang Zhen grinned broadly, shining brilliantly!

Zhou Tong was near tears, he shifted again, saying, “Turns out you can smile, you… How did I end up with such a rotten freak like you? What exactly are you?”

Yang Zhen’s expression darkened, and he shook his head, saying, “Buddha said, ‘not to be spoken’!”

Zhou Tong suddenly really felt like hitting someone!
