The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 73 I was... too busy to remember!

This time, Xia Yu's "reason" for coming to the mortal world was to learn how his senior brothers worked and to prepare for being able to stand on his own in the future.

Only three days passed in Heaven, but three years had already passed on earth.

Fortunately, it is June, Xia Yu’s favorite season.

Stepping on a cloud, Xia Yu gently landed at the door of the Earth Temple. As soon as he stood firm, the God of Land came out to greet him.

Today is a working day and there are not many pilgrims coming to worship. It is completely empty now.

Xia Yu, wearing a red dress fluttering in the wind, showed up so openly only because she was sure that there was no one around.

"Girl, girl..." The Earth God leaned on his cane and chased Xia Yu in great surprise, asking: "Did you bring the words I asked you to bring to your master?"

Xia Yu avoided the questions from the God of Land and went straight back to her own room, preparing to change into the clothes that Li Jian gave her.

The door slammed shut, and the Earth God sat down at the door and waited, muttering to himself, "Calculating the time, the Peach Banquet in Heaven has just ended, and I don't know if this girl will bring one down for me."

"Probably not. She herself... needs the peaches more than I do."

"Eh... why do I feel like just now... this girl's aura... has become even stronger?"

The God of Land looked up at the sky and felt more and more aggrieved and unfair.

"Why... even small immortals can attend the 'Peach Banquet', but we... earth immortals can't?"

Even a small fairy disciple like Xia Yu can participate, but the God of Land cannot go. How can he feel balanced?

With a "bang", the door of Xia Yu's room opened again.

She changed into a mid-length off-shoulder red dress and red high heels. Her waist-length hair shortened into shoulder-length curls, and she kept her earrings and necklace on.

As for the bracelet, Xia Yu still likes the "marriage bracelet" given to her by her master the most. However, in order to hide her identity, she usually disguises it as an ordinary bracelet or hides it.

With Guangzhe's beautiful skin, jet-black hair, and bright and lively big eyes, Xia Yu looks more like a "little fairy" than a little fairy when she dresses up.

"Girl... did you... help me convey the message to your master?" The God of Land quickly got up from the ground. He didn't care what Xia Yu was going to do dressed like this. What he wanted to know more was whether his plan was successful.

Xia Yu smiled politely, knowing that the God of Land would ask about this matter sooner or later.

Fortunately, she didn't say it, right? If she had said it, what good words could her master say for him in that situation?
"I... was... busy and forgot..." Xia Yu looked at the Earth God with great apology. Seeing that his mood had plummeted, he immediately comforted him, "But it's okay. I will definitely convey it to you next time I return to Heaven! I promise not to forget it again, really!"

Ugh!
The land god sighed deeply in his heart...

He had been looking forward to this thing for many years, but in the end he still failed.

Now, what else can he do? He can only trust Xia Yu temporarily. After all, she is the only one who can help him at the moment.

"Then... why did you come to the mortal world this time? Is your marriage line messed up again?" The land god began to ruthlessly complain about Xia Yu. "This time..." Xia Yu was about to say, but immediately recalled her master's instructions in her mind, and then said: "I came to learn from you brothers and see how they work. In the future, I will also have to manage an area on my own like you brothers!"

"Oh..." the Earth God replied, and suddenly noticed the changes in Xia Yu, and asked: "Your internal cultivation seems to have increased by two thousand years... You actually got a peach that matures once every nine thousand years?"

"How could I have that ability?" Xia Yu was still very excited when he talked about it now, "I only got the small three thousand year old peach. The nine thousand year old peach was given to me by an immortal official."

"Really?" The earth god's eyes lit up, as if he saw hope, and he asked Xia Yu: "Which immortal official? Can... he give me one next time?"

"Land God, why do you always want to go to heaven?" Xia Yu felt very strange. The seven princesses were determined to come down to the earth at all costs, but the God of Land was just the opposite.

"I..." Just as the God of Land was about to explain, Xia Yu quickly changed the subject: "God of Land, what happened to Luo Fan and the others in the past three years in the mortal world? Tell me about it!"

This is the case with older earthly immortals. When they are speaking, if someone interrupts them, they will forget what they were going to say.

"The past three years?" The Earth God thought about it seriously and told the story slowly: "Luo Fan got promoted in the company where he works. Except for being 'single', everything else... has become better. Zhou Hai and Meng Xiaodong's relationship... is getting better and better. Qu Si Ning and Shang Jing Yu went out to travel. The underworld princess Yan Lan and the mortal Lan Yue... became good girlfriends. They live and eat together and are very close..."

Everything else was within Xia Yu's expectations, but what was going on with Yan Lan and Lan Yue?

"Wait!" Xia Yu interrupted the Earth God urgently and asked, "Are you sure you remember? The Princess of the Underworld, Yan Lan? She is a ghost from the underworld. How could she be good friends with Lan Yue? They even live and eat together. Are you kidding me?"

Before leaving, didn't she ask the second senior brother to help keep an eye on her? Could it be that the second senior brother was also too busy to remember and let Yan Lan do whatever she wanted?

The God of Land and Xia Yu went to the living room together, sat down on the sofa, and continued the conversation.

"Impossible! How could Lan Yue see Yan Lan?" Xia Yu was puzzled and said, "What's more, humans and ghosts are on different paths. If Yan Lan stays for a few more days, Lan Yue's life will be in danger..."

The God of Land was also very curious about this question, but he really couldn't see any flaws.

"Girl..." The Earth God suddenly remembered something important and asked Xia Yu, "Do you know...there is a...big shopping mall in the underworld?"

"The Underworld Mall?" Xia Yu shook his head and said, "I went to the underworld several hundred years ago. I still remember what I was there, but... I didn't seem to have been to any big mall at that time, so I don't know much about it."

"The underworld is just like the mortal world. It also has a big shopping mall selling things. It's in the underworld... and is run and managed by the ghost lady." The land god explained.

"Ghost grandma?" Xia Yu had never heard of this person.

The land god was tired of talking, so he poured himself a glass of water from the table and took a sip. After a while, he said, "I didn't suspect it before, but now I think it's very likely that Yan Lan... bought some medicine from the ghost lady to remove the negative energy in her body."

After listening to what the God of Land said, Xia Yu remembered the "growth-promoting medicine" that Yan Lan gave Lan Tian to eat, and suddenly he felt that everything made sense.

Yan Lan could even harm a little baby like that, so what else could she not do?
"So, what you mean is that she bought some magical medicine. This medicine allows her to appear, and she can also live like a mortal without the negative energy of a ghost..."

Xia Yu fell into deep thought for a moment. She didn't know whether she should intervene in this trivial matter...
