Communication on Different Frequencies

It took a long time for Loran Qing to regain her senses.

She immediately began questioning Mu Rong Xue about the situation at that time.

Perhaps women are inherently fond of gossip.

At this moment, with the two women together, Mu Rong Xue began to ramble on incessantly.

After hearing the whole story, although Loran Qing hadn't seen Chen Ping'an, a seed of reverence had been planted in her heart.

It turned out that the attack wasn't launched by that senior.

It was a celestial weapon, fired by himself!

How powerful must the weapon's master be?!

The more she thought about it, the more curious and eager Loran Qing became towards that senior master.

She wished Mu Rong Xue could hurry up.

The light of teleportation soon landed in front of a courtyard.

Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing landed on the ground.

Each of them concealed a sound-suppressing stone.

Later, they would have to request Chen Ping'an to play a tune for them.

"This is the place," said Mu Rong Xue.

After landing, Loran Qing scrutinized the large courtyard before her.

She found it wasn't much different from the other courtyards.

"Senior, are you here?" Mu Rong Xue called out towards the courtyard.

Without Chen Ping'an's permission, she didn't dare to enter rashly.

Otherwise, she was sure to suffer consequences.

Inside the courtyard, having just bid farewell to Mu Rong Gong and finished washing the dishes with Xiao Ling'er, Chen Ping'an heard the voice and was filled with exasperation once more.

You two wouldn't split up to mooch meals, would you?

One had just left not long ago, and another had already arrived?

Chen Ping'an walked out of the courtyard and looked towards the main gate.

His gaze fell upon two beautiful women.

"I'm here, come in," Chen Ping'an said, his eyes brightening a little when he saw Loran Qing.

She was indeed a beauty no less stunning than Mu Rong Xue.

Seeing Chen Ping'an, Mu Rong Xue's eyes also lit up, and she pulled Loran Qing's hand as they walked inside.

However, at this moment, when Loran Qing saw Chen Ping'an, she stood rooted to the spot.

Through the courtyard gate, the moment she saw Chen Ping'an, even though she had mentally prepared herself, she was still rendered speechless and wide-eyed by his presence.

Firstly, she was deeply shaken by the profound dao principles and rhythms that surrounded him.

Secondly, she was struck by Chen Ping'an's appearance and age.

How could this senior look so young and handsome?

It was completely different from her expectations!

She had thought the senior would be an old man with white hair and a sagely demeanor.

Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing crossed the threshold and entered the courtyard.

At the same time, a small object the size of a grain of rice seemed to be obstructed and fell from Mu Rong Xue's shoulder to the ground...

Loran Qing followed them into the courtyard, but then she became bewildered once more.

She discovered that the moment she entered the courtyard, countless extremely formidable gazes fell upon her.

It gave her a feeling akin to being watched while bathing.

Fortunately, this sensation quickly disappeared.

"Sen...Senior!" Loran Qing bowed towards Chen Ping'an as she approached.

Upon hearing the word 'senior', Chen Ping'an was already accustomed to it.

These cultivators would casually address him as 'senior', but he couldn't figure out why.

During this period, he had harbored a faint hope and asked the system again if his cultivation level was hidden.

The system's answer was very clear – if he had any cultivation, then he could stand on his head and fart...

Chen Ping'an couldn't be bothered to think about it anymore. He smiled and nodded, "Young lady."

After all, 'senior' was just a respectful term.

Loran Qing gazed at Chen Ping'an's jade-like, gentle smile, and her face suddenly flushed.

Is this really a celestial senior? He's far too young and handsome!

She realized that all her previous suitors combined couldn't match this senior's single smile.

At that moment, a crisp voice rang out from behind Chen Ping'an.

"Big brother, who are these two sisters?" Su Ling looked very excited, as if she had encountered her own kind.

Hearing this voice, Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing turned their gaze towards the source.

When they saw Su Ling, their eyes widened in shock.

They were both startled by the formidable aura emanating from her.

However, after a moment, they began to ignore her aura and stared at her delicate, rosy face.

Wow!

What a precious little darling!

The two women's eyes sparkled with stars, as if gazing upon their favorite toy.

Chen Ping'an looked tenderly at Xiao Ling'er and said, "You can call them sister."

Then, he turned towards Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing and added, "This is Xiao Ling'er, my younger sister."

As he said "my younger sister", Chen Ping'an seemed quite proud.

After that meal, he had been completely captivated.

Not only was she incredibly adorable, but her culinary skills were also astonishingly impressive. He could confidently say that no one in the world wouldn't love such a little sister.

When Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing learned of Su Ling's name, they thought it was very cute, but upon hearing Chen Ping'an refer to her as his younger sister, the two of them were stunned once more.

Younger sister?!

This!!

However, it did make sense, as they realized that Su Ling's strength was also incredibly formidable.

Su Ling smiled sweetly at Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing, "Hello, sisters."

Hearing her greeting, Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing's eyes sparkled with stars, and they scurried over to her.

"Xiao Ling'er, hello," they said, maternal radiance beaming from their faces.

Su Ling seemed to really like them and cooperated fully with Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing.

Whenever asked a question, she answered readily.

Chen Ping'an watched them from the side, shaking his head and smiling.

However, what he didn't expect was that after Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing had gotten a little familiar with Su Ling, Mu Rong Xue made an outrageous request!

"Xiao Ling'er, can I kiss you?" Mu Rong Xue asked, gazing at Su Ling's rosy little cheeks.

She knew it was an excessive request, but she couldn't help herself!

Chen Ping'an was taken aback upon hearing this.

However, what left him even more perplexed was that Su Ling readily agreed, smiling and tilting her head to bring her cheek closer to Mu Rong Xue!

Witnessing this scene, Chen Ping'an's worldview was shattered.

Mu Rong Xue's eyes lit up, and she planted a firm kiss on Su Ling's cheek.

Then, Loran Qing's eyes also brightened, and she made the same request.

Su Ling giggled, finding it quite amusing, and brought her other cheek towards Loran Qing's face.

After each kissing Su Ling once, Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing still felt it wasn't enough, so they suggested kissing her again!

Su Ling continued to smile and offer her cheeks for them to kiss.

Watching the two beauties take turns kissing Su Ling, Chen Ping'an fell into a state of bewilderment.

His heart was filled with envy.

He wasn't envious that Su Ling could have her cheeks kissed by beauties on both sides.

Rather, he envied Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing for being able to kiss Su Ling!

In just a short while, Su Ling was playing merrily with Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing.

Meanwhile, Chen Ping'an watched them play from the side, not feeling bored at all.

After all, with two beauties and an adorably cute Xiao Ling'er, the scene was delightful to behold.

Anyone who found this boring surely couldn't be human.

After a while, Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing finally remembered their original purpose and set aside their playfulness.

Mu Rong Xue looked at Chen Ping'an, hesitated for a moment, then tentatively requested, "Senior, actually our main purpose in coming here is to hear you play another tune. You don't need to play much, just one will do."

After speaking, she tightly clutched the hem of her robe.

Hearing the request, Chen Ping'an glanced at Loran Qing. 

Oh, so you two came for this reason.

It seemed Mu Rong Xue had told this girl that his musical skills were quite formidable, and this girl, who also had some proficiency in music, wanted to experience it for herself.

Chen Ping'an didn't mind, as long as they didn't make devilish demands for him to play.

"Simple enough, I'll play one of my better tunes for you now," Chen Ping'an smiled.

Seeing Chen Ping'an's ready agreement, Mu Rong Xue was overjoyed. 

The senior agreed?!

And in the corner, the celestial weapon's spirit became excitedly restless.

"I'll get to hear it again!" It was deeply thrilled.

With another tune played, its injuries would recover by eighty percent!

At that point, not only would it be able to move, but it could also unleash its abilities as a celestial weapon!

It hadn't expected Chen Ping'an's music to be so powerful that it could recover so quickly.

If one looked carefully, the small missing gaps on the golden longsword had almost disappeared.

Chen Ping'an led the two women back to sit down, took out his bamboo flute, and began playing one of his better tunes.

As the melody rang out, the surroundings immediately fell silent. 

It was as if the entire world contained only the music.

Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing had both activated their sound-recording stones.

Upon first hearing the tune, Loran Qing's eyes widened as she looked at Mu Rong Xue.

Her good friend was indeed not mistaken!

After just listening for a bit, she had an epiphany!!

She quickly closed her eyes and focused intently on comprehending the insight.

The tune soon came to an end. 

When the surroundings returned to silence, Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing still had their eyes closed.

Even Su Ling had her eyes shut as well.

But she was the first to open them, gazing at Chen Ping'an with a smile, "Big brother, that was beautiful."

Chen Ping'an patted Xiao Ling'er's head affectionately, feeling quite pleased with himself.

At that moment, Mu Rong Xue and Loran Qing also opened their eyes.

Mu Rong Xue's eyes were brimming with excitement. 

She had broken through again, to the ninth level of the Yuan Ying realm!

As for Loran Qing, her face held no excitement, only awe and reverence.

She had broken through four levels, reaching the sixth level of the Result Forming realm!

A single epiphany, a quadruple realm breakthrough!

After playing the tune, Chen Ping'an's gaze was primarily fixed on Loran Qing.

In his opinion, Loran Qing's musical prowess should surpass Mu Rong Xue's.

He only wanted to observe Loran Qing's reaction.

Seeing her in a state of awestruck reverence, he smiled inwardly.

Lady, don't look at me like that, or I might become arrogant.

Hahaha.

However, he never expected that the two women were on completely different frequencies...
