Time Travel: The Heroine Has Arrived!

Chapter 90: Chapter 90: The Legendary Genius Junior Ancestor VS White Lotus Outer Sect Junior Sister (Part 4)

Lingxiao Peak rose steeply for thousands of feet, and the distance from the mountain’s base to its summit was not short.

However, having just reached the mid-mountain, Gu Shengyin was already struggling to continue.

Although she was naturally gifted, she was after all only an eight-year-old child, and such a journey was too lengthy for her.

But she had no slackness or complaints.

Celestial Master Xing He watched the little girl with a calm expression, following him silently towards the mountaintop, her forehead dense with sweat, yet Gu Weixin never once cried out in fatigue, nor suggested a rest.

Celestial Master Xing He inwardly praised her, her natural gifts outstanding, her temperament resilient, this child truly was a born sword cultivator.

...

It was at this moment that a crane’s call came from the distant horizon.

Gu Shengyin lifted her head and saw a graceful white crane descending gracefully.

At the same time, a voice that sounded like striking ice and jade emanated from the crane, “Come on.”

Gu Shengyin looked at the celestial crane with curiosity, while Celestial Master Xing He bowed respectfully towards it, “I comply with the Great Ancestor Master’s command.”

With that said, he took Gu Shengyin in one hand, lightly touched his toe, and floated onto the back of the white crane.

The white crane let out a long cry, spread its wings, and flew towards the peak.

Atop the peak, the white crane that had carried them turned into a light, becoming a delicate paper crane, and vanished.

Gu Shengyin: “The world of cultivation is indeed miraculous!”

At this time, Elder Xing He suddenly changed his expression and became extremely reverent.

After a long pause, Elder Xing He turned to Gu Shengyin and said, “The Great Ancestor Master has been in closed-door cultivation for many years and does not wish to see outsiders, I shall not accompany you to meet him.” He informed Gu Shengyin of the location of the Great Ancestor Master’s cave residence and then left.

Gu Shengyin: “…”

If it truly were the eight-year-old Gu Weixin, her heart would certainly be nervous and frightened, right?

She walked towards the cave residence pointed out by Celestial Master Xing He.

Without a doubt, having been accepted by the master of the cave residence, the formidable prohibitions that guarded it showed no reaction to Gu Shengyin as she approached.

Gu Shengyin observed her surroundings as she walked.

If it weren’t for the path Celestial Master Xing He had personally directed, she could never have imagined that anyone lived here: the entire abode had no unnecessary decorations, all around were bare stone walls, further inside, a few simple meditation cushions were placed on the floor, on the right was a rather large stone room, its floor covered with messy sword marks, Gu Shengyin merely glanced at it and immediately felt a stinging in her eyes and pain in her head as if pricked with needles.

She couldn’t help but cry out in pain, suddenly breaking out in a cold sweat.

“Calm your mind.” The same icy voice she had heard upon the white crane appeared again, and at the same time, a hand was placed on the top of Gu Shengyin’s head.

Gu Shengyin felt a cool breath flow from the hand on her head into her body, the sharp pains being soothed by this chill until they disappeared.

She opened her eyes, looking up at the man who appeared quite tall and straight to her at the moment.

The first thing she saw was that waterfall-like long hair, pure white and dustless, reaching his ankles.

And beneath that long hair was a face unusually young.

Gu Shengyin was seeing such a person for the first time, he had the appearance of a twenty-year-old, yet the eyes of someone a century old.

Of course, his actual age was definitely more than that.

This man, as pristine as ice and snow, leaned down toward Gu Shengyin and said, “Would you be willing to take me as your master?”
