Chapter 762: A Fated Person

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

A woman in a simple daoist robe with a refined and refreshing disposition slowly made her way toward An Lin.

Her arrival instantly attracted all the eyes of the cultivators present.

There was no way not to focus their attention on her as the power she represented was an absolute colossus.

The Heavenly Court ruled over the human race within the Kingdom of the Nine States and transcended beyond even the four great sects.

This was one of the first-rate powers even in the boundless Tai Chu Continent, where tens of thousands of tribes resided.

Even if the cultivators present hadn’t seen Celestial Maiden Tian Yu before, they would all know of her title. This was the Celestial Thearch’s seventh daughter and his most adored one as well. Her arrival was enough to indicate the Heavenly Court’s attitude toward the Four Nine Immortal Sect!

“Even the Heavenly Court has come to this grand opening. The Four Nine Immortal Sect is certainly a force to be reckoned with…”

“Of course he wouldn’t be scared of the Heavenly Sword Sect with the Heavenly Sword Sect as his backers!”

“Quick… tell someone to give some more celebratory gifts. Just say that the previous gifts we had given were only the first part and that we’re offering the second part now!”

All the cultivators present racked their brains for how best to proceed in order to curry the favor of the Four Nine Immortal Sect.

Even if some of the sects didn’t want to side with the Four Nine Immortal Sect, they wouldn’t be stupid enough to mess with them!

“An Lin, that battle just then was quite riveting. As expected of the Small War God of the Heavenly Court.” An elegant smile appeared on Lin Junjun’s face, making her appear as if she had walked straight from a painting.

Her compliment seemed to be directed at An Lin, but she made sure to bring up the Small War God of the Heavenly Court, thereby extending the compliment to the Heavenly Court as well.

“Were you just nearby?” An Lin asked.

“That’s right, I was just nearby, but I couldn’t bear to interrupt your flexing,” Lin Junjun replied.

An Lin: “…”

Was there really a need to be so honest and blunt?!

“The Four Nine Immortal Sect really has surprised me with its power. But it looked like the MVP was the formation disk made by our Heavenly Court’s Emperor Chang Sheng. It even managed to scare away the number one sword immortal in the world!” Lin Junjun praised while looking at him with her bright eyes.

An Lin’s expression darkened. She was complimenting the Heavenly Court in a roundabout way again! Was there no end to this?

At this moment, Da Bai ran over to save him. “Big Brother An, you were so cool just then! You stood up against a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure and managed to remain calm and collected throughout! Not only that, but you were able to make a thrilling retaliation and kick him back to where he came from! You truly are an exceptional prodigy worthy of being the sect leader of our sect! Woof!”

“It’s not a big deal, don’t make a big fuss.” An Lin waved his hands with a modest smile.

This was what it should be! This was how compliments should be delivered!

Lin Junjun rolled her eyes adorably.

Right at this moment, the little girl behind An Lin suddenly came to a realization as her eyes glazed over.

The elderly woman who had been saved by Tina also had a similar reaction as she turned her eyes on An Lin and Da Bai, and her mouth gaped open slightly.

When they had first seen An Lin, the situation was too intense for them to think about anything.

However, when Da Bai appeared before them, they finally made a connection. A white-robed man and his huge white dog, fragments of memories began to resurface in their minds…

The gallant figure who had ridden off into the sunset had been etched permanently into their minds.

The little girl stared at An Lin with her large eyes, and her intricate lips parted slightly, as if she wanted to call out An Lin’s name, but she was a little conflicted and hesitant.

In the end, she mustered up her courage and spoke in a soft, trembling voice, “Dog… dog-riding hero?”

The little girl’s voice wasn’t very loud, but all the people gathered here were cultivators, so there was no way her words wouldn’t be audible to them.

Da Bai’s interest was piqued by the dog riding part while An Lin’s interest was piqued by the hero part.

Hence, both of them turned toward the little girl.

“Little girl, are you calling me?” An Lin asked with a smile.

“Big Brother An, this little girl looks a little familiar, woof!” Da Bai’s big, round eyes lit up.

“You monster! How could you target little girls like this!” An Lin was extremely enraged by Da Bai’s cliche pickup line.

The little girl aimed a pair of glowing eyes at An Lin, and her expression became a bit more animated. “Dog-riding hero, it’s me! Back when we first met, my grandma and I tried to scam two hundred spirit stones from you, but you gave us five hundred…”

The little girl’s words faltered as tears flowed down her face.

Meeting An Lin for a second time should have been a joyous occasion for her.

However, the first time they met, the little girl had tried to scam him. As a result, there were many mixed emotions in her heart.

The little girl could only recount this in order to remind An Lin of who they were, and a sense of guilt and remorse welled up in her heart as she spoke.

The little girl spoke in a broken voice between sobs, “Waah… I-I… Dog-riding hero, you’re such a good person, but I repaid your kindness by doing something like that, I’m such a bad person, waah…”

Before she knew, the little girl was suddenly enveloped in a warm hug.

An Lin picked up the little girl and hoisted her up in his arms with a warm smile. “I remember now! You’re that little girl from the Wind Plain State. You’re growing up to become more and more gorgeous! I gave you those five hundred spirit stones for your grandma to treat her ailments. I’m really pleased that your grandma is looking so healthy!”

“But I…” The little girl still wanted to continue.

However, An Lin placed a finger over her lips to prevent her from saying anything else. “I knew about what your situation was like back then. That money was for your grandma to treat her ailments, alright?”

More tears flowed down the little girl’s porcelain-like cheeks. “Big brother, you’re such a good person…”

Upon seeing this, all the onlookers marveled at how miraculous fate could be.

Xu Xiaolan, who was standing with the Vermilion Bird Sect representative team, clicked her tongue in wonder. “An Lin really does have a way with women. He spent five hundred spirit stones to buy a little girl’s heart! That’s not a bad bargain!”

Lan Yan immediately burst into laughter. “Hey… Xiaolan, you’re not jealous of a little girl, are you?”

Xu Xiaolan glared at Lan Yan. “What goes on in that head of yours every day?!”

Mo Hai immediately took this opportunity to help An Lin out. “Xiaolan, I think you need to have a stronger sense of urgency! By the time your hundred-year agreement or whatever with An Lin comes to a conclusion, that little girl would have grown into an exquisite beauty!”

Lan Yan nodded in agreement. “This little girl is so adorable already, she clearly has the makings of a gorgeous young woman in the future! An Lin provided spirit stones to her during her time of need and even rallied up his entire sect to face off against the Heavenly Sword Sect for her. Those are some heavy favors, tsk tsk tsk… The little girl probably won’t forget the things that he had done for her until the day she dies! Maybe she’ll even pledge her entire life to An Lin! Are you really not scared?”

Xu Xiaolan’s lips twitched upon hearing this. “I really am feeling a sense of urgency now…”

Everyone erupted into a burst of raucous laughter.

In contrast, Xu Xiaolan was feeling a little disconsolate. She was wondering if an agreement of a hundred years was too unreasonable and pretentious. Should she shorten the time period of the agreement?

She then shook her head as she turned toward the man in the distance with a confident smile on her face. “Jeez, why am I thinking so much? Don’t I trust An Lin! It’s quite normal for an outstanding man to attract admirers, but the woman he loves is me!”

An Lin looked at the little girl with an inquisitive smile. “Why did you suddenly decide to come here?”

He was almost certain that the little girl had only recognized him upon coming here.

As such, it was extremely baffling that the two mortals would suddenly come here.

“A… an old daoist priest with a cow nose told me that there would be a fated person here!” the little girl replied.

“A daoist priest with a cow nose?” An Lin was unable to envision just what that would look like. “Do you have any other information about him? Like his name or what sect he’s from?”

The little girl shook her head with a blank expression. “I don’t know anything else. All I know is that he can fly and is really strong! He told me that he had read my fortune and that there would be a fated person waiting for me, so I decided to come here!”

Upon hearing this, An Lin was very curious about just who this cow-nosed daoist priest was.

There shouldn’t be anyone who knew about what had taken place during his first encounter with the little girl.

But this daoist priest was able to predict that their fate would be intertwined?

However, An Lin wasn’t the type of person to overthink and get hung up on things. He really liked this little girl and that was enough for him!

He cradled the little girl in his arms and asked in a gentle voice, “What’s your name, little girl?”

“My name is Ye Ling!” the little girl replied excitedly, as if she was elated that she finally had a chance to introduce herself.

She then pointed to the elderly woman beside her. “My grandma’s name is Shan Ruxuan!”

“My name is An Lin.” An Lin also revealed his name to them.

“Big Brother An Lin!” A sweet, adorable smile appeared on the little girl’s face.
