Myriad Realms Gatekeeper-Chapter 658 - 369 Wantu, Sirui, Lie Low! (Big Chapter asking for subscriptions, folks!)_4

Nangong Sirui was groomed to be the family heir from a young age, exuding natural grace and poise in every gesture.

He was as handsome as Pan An, with a presence as commanding as a towering tree in the breeze.

He also spoke with precision.

The female Taoist looked toward Shen Ye again, hesitant, and said, "I remember now, you’re that disaster."

Shen Ye silently stretched out his hand and pushed above his head.

The label "disaster" disappeared instantly.

In its place, a pink label appeared:

"Divas."

"It’s actually a Diva! Our Sect now finally has a Diva." The female Taoist exclaimed in surprise, her gaze warming up instantly.

Even being labeled "disaster" was a rather powerful name.

Considering the way he changed his "name," it was possible the scene before was intentional.

Impressive.

"If you need help with the deduction of Cultivation Technique skills, you can find me anytime." Shen Ye said with a grin.

"As for treasures, you can get them from me. I have plenty, more than I can use, really bothersome." Nangong Sirui said.

The female Taoist stared blankly at the two of them.

"I heard that a new Entry-level Disciple today is a descendant of the Holy Warrior Tu Fusheng from the hundred and eighth layered universe."

She probed.

"That’s me, I’m Nangong Wantu." Shen Ye said.

"I am Nangong Sirui, his... younger brother," Nangong Sirui added.

"An unexpected meeting is better than a planned one, please, fellow apprentice sister, come over for a chat!" both exclaimed in unison.

The female Taoist paused her breathing.

These two were strong, handsome, backed, and talented.

——And also very generous with their wealth.

If she could make friends with them, it seemed more valuable than a mere rookie trial.

The female Taoist made a polite bow with her hands, her voice becoming gentle:

"Fellow apprentices, I am Chu Manshu from the Heavenly Gate, a True Disciple, having joined two years earlier than you, so my strength is a bit higher."

"Apprentice sister? You look younger than me. By the way, may I call you Manshu?" asked Nangong Sirui, his eyes bright, his voice soothing.

The very image of a refined gentleman whose every action only felt friendly.

This line, said by someone else, would have a completely different effect.

"Sirui, my dear friend, I still remember what you said earlier. If you make good on it, you can call me Manshu," the Female Disciple said,a laugh hidden behind her hand.

"What’s so hard about that? Manshu, tell me what treasure you desire," said Nangong Sirui without hesitation.

He was used to being generous; he never had heart to say no to a girl, so his offer seemed natural and genuine.

——With none of the crassness of a nouveau riche.

Chu Manshu was even more reassured and said, "To be honest, I’ve been missing a piece of thousand-year Diamond Thunder Bamboo. If I could acquire it, I could advance my Magic Artifact."

"Just a piece of thousand-year Diamond Thunder Bamboo? That’s easy." Nangong Sirui said casually.

He seemed not to take the matter to heart, waving his sleeves to bring forth a table, setting down a teapot and cups, and began making tea.

Seeing this, Shen Ye quickly provided some cushions.

The three sat around the table.

Nangong Sirui then instructed Celestial Maidens to stand by his side, to gently pluck the pipa, enhancing the mood.

Chu Manshu, seeing this display, felt even more at ease and said:

"Easy? I’ve been looking for a long time without success. The Sect doesn’t have it for sale either, I’ve almost lost hope."

Nangong Sirui glanced at Shen Ye.

——What’s a thousand-year Diamond Thunder Bamboo?

Shen Ye hung his head.

——How would I know.

"First have some tea, this issue can be easily resolved," Nangong Sirui said with a smile.

"Hmm! Who would have thought that one of you is a Diva and the other knows how to brew tea and perform music, quite elegant indeed," Chu Manshu opined.

Nangong Sirui handed a cup of tea to Shen Ye.

"Give it a try."

——She is at the eighth level of the Law Realm, the two of us together wouldn’t stand a chance.

"Alright."

Shen Ye accepted the tea and drank it in one gulp.

——Stall her, I’ll think of something.

He silently activated the contract.

Tu Fusheng immediately felt something.

"Diamond Thunder Bamboo for a thousand years? That’s pretty common stuff—wait, is this for wooing a lady? Then pretend I didn’t say anything."

Using the contract between them, he easily took a piece of Diamond Thunder Bamboo from his Storage Ring.

"Here, this is Ten Thousand Year Diamond Saintly Thunder Bamboo, just about qualifies as a treasure, go ahead and take it," Tu Fusheng said generously.

——He had come to a realization.

With the kind of Strength Shen Ye had, he could enter into his Dharma Aspect at will.

What did that imply?

A life-saving chance.

In combat, if faced with an insurmountable foe, he could immediately call Shen Ye to hide himself within his Dharma Aspect.

His safety would be secured.

——Where else could one find such terms!

Thus, it was crucial for him to establish a strong image and to loyally stand by Shen Ye’s side.

```

Then I can wander as I please!

Shen Ye heard him say this and, upon seeing him take out the Ten Thousand Year Diamond Saintly Thunder Bamboo, simply said thank you.

The Ten Thousand Year Diamond Saintly Thunder Bamboo was immediately sent into the Dharma Aspect.

—But how could he give it to Nangong Sirui in front of Chu Manshu?

There’s a way.

Xiao San was someone who had passed the trials of the Immortal Country.

He could bestow it in the name of the Immortal Country and it would go directly into his hands.

"Place your hand under the table."

Shen Ye transmitted his voice.

Nangong Sirui handed the clear tea to Chu Manshu and then retracted his hand, letting it hang below the table.

Chu Manshu took the tea and took a light sip.

She suddenly frowned.

This tea isn’t right!

It couldn’t even count as Spiritual Tea.

If these Nangong brothers were truly men of elegance, why would they use tea of such poor quality?

Shen Ye was extremely astute and immediately saw that the beauty was caught unawares.

Nangong Sirui had also been taught by his family since he was young and had some skills in reading people’s expressions.

The tea!

There’s something wrong with the tea!

That’s right, this is tea from the Indefinite Layered Universe; it can’t compare with the tea here in the Ninety-Nine Layer Universe.

The other party would be suspicious the moment they tasted it.

"My apologies," Shen Ye sighed, "our mischievous little brother loves to play pranks; he swapped the tea leaves—probably now he’s somewhere delighting in his mischief."

"Yes, my younger brother is a rascal. Next time I will invite Manshu to enjoy some high-quality precious tea."

Nangong Sirui also said.

He acted as though it didn’t concern him, and placed something that appeared in his hand on the table, pushing it toward Chu Manshu.

The move was incredibly natural—

As if he just took something out from his Storage Ring.

Chu Manshu, still digesting their explanations, saw a piece of golden bamboo slide in front of her.

"Ten Thousand Years, even better." Shen Ye transmitted his voice.

Nangong Sirui knowingly took it from the table, squinting as he listened to the Celestial Maiden playing the pipa, speaking slowly without rush:

"I see Manshu is so ethereal and transcendent, far beyond any ordinary female disciple, and I thought that millennia-old Diamond Thunder Bamboo was not worthy of Manshu, so I prepared a Ten Thousand Year one."

"—I hope Manshu won’t blame me."

Chu Manshu picked up the golden bamboo, executing seven or eight Technique sequences to verify it, her face gradually showing delight.

This bamboo is Ten Thousand Years old!

Ten Thousand Years to become a Saint.

The Saintly Thunder Bamboo grants even stronger enhancements to weapons, their power at least quadrupling or quintupling!

—Millennia-old bamboos are already hard to find, and they actually gave her a Ten Thousand Year one!

Such a grand gesture.

To be able to casually produce such an item, surely the issue with the tea must have had a real cause.

"It’s no mistake, this is the Ten Thousand Year Diamond Saintly Thunder Bamboo... Sirui brother, I really thank you."

Chu Manshu stood up to perform a serious salute.

Shen Ye and Nangong Sirui exchanged glances, transmitting voices to each other:

"Hisss—"

That was a sharp intake of breath.

Since when does a Law Realm Eightfold powerhouse sister call a fourth-layer Law Realm brother "brother," accompanied by a serious salute?

"Are you happy?" Shen Ye transmitted his voice.

"I’m very happy." Nangong Sirui said.

He hastily got up, steadied Chu Manshu, showing a sincerest smile on his face:

"Manshu, we are kindred spirits at first sight, why be so formal?"

His hand barely touched her before swiftly drawing back, showing no intention of taking advantage of the girl.

Chu Manshu’s favorable impression greatly increased, smiling as she sat back down and said:

"I wonder how I should address your little brother? I’d like to invite him to the sect when there’s time, I’ll personally welcome him."

Nangong Sirui smiled without a word.

But Shen Ye cupped his hands and said, "My little brother is named Nangong Gou; maybe he’ll come to play later, and there could be a chance for him to join the sect."

"Wantu, Sirui, Gou?" Chu Manshu recited.

"Correct." Shen Ye met Nangong Sirui’s puzzled gaze.

"Leave a spot for Yun Ye." He whispered through transmission.

"But why ’Gou’?" Nangong Sirui transmitted back.

"What do you think?"

"...It’s indeed vivid."

At this point, Chu Manshu said again, "Wantu, Sirui, what is your trial task?"

"To defeat you—but we don’t want to fight a girl, it’s better to listen to music here, and chat about life instead," Shen Ye said.

"What about your task then?" Chu Manshu asked.

"We’ll just wing it, play enough, admit defeat to you, and then leave," Nangong Sirui said nonchalantly.

Chu Manshu looked at the two men’s careless expressions and then at the Ten Thousand Year Diamond Saintly Thunder Bamboo in her hand, her gaze becoming softer.

She gently said:

"There’s really no need for that, younger sister here will just admit defeat."
