She is devoted to cultivating immortality

Chapter 55 Danyangzi

"Three flowers on the top. Danyangzi..."

Xie Lian didn’t want to look at him any longer, as it would be impolite to do so, so he quickly cupped his hands.

"I didn't expect that the famous Alchemy Immortal would come here in person. I am so honored by this person, Xie."

Xie Lian felt flattered.

How could she not know the origins of the person in front of her?

He must be the only surviving immortal Dan among the three immortals.

So his Taoist name is Danyangzi?
The lame Taoist didn't seem to have mentioned it before, but if you think about it carefully, you will know that as a disciple, it is not appropriate to mention the Taoist name of the master casually. Anyway, people in the cultivation are called Danxian, and only extremely close friends will be called Danyangzi.

Xie Lian really didn’t expect that Danxia Mountain had spent so much money. A leader of a sect, the only leader at that, just left the mountain without any warning.

"Thank you for your compliment, Taoist friend. I am not fond of fighting in my life. I have fought with others only a few times in the past three thousand years. How can I have a great reputation? Instead, I have gained a bad reputation for being falsely righteous and merciful. I am ashamed of myself."

Danyangzi smiled brightly and spoke slowly, but he was dignified in his heart.
The look Xie Lian gave him just now actually made him feel like his true identity had been seen through.

Almost subconsciously, an instinctive stress response occurs.

But fortunately, Xie Lian didn’t seem to do it on purpose. After taking a look, he immediately looked away.

This made him feel a lot better, but at the same time, he also felt a strong sense of horror.

"I originally thought Shao Yan's words were a bit exaggerated, but now it seems that he was not aimless. Xie Lian, when did such a person appear in this world?"

While his mind was racing, he was also trying to figure out some of Xie Lian's background, but at a glance, it was as if everything was foggy and he couldn't see anything clearly.

He had a feeling that even if he tried his best, he would not be able to find out anything about Xie Lian.

"False benevolence and false mercy?"

Xie Lian was startled, then said in confusion.

"Master Lu once said that Danxia Mountain has a very good reputation in the cultivation world. It has established friendships with countless people over the past three thousand years. Everyone in the world admires it sincerely. Why do people change their attitude when hearing the words of the Danxian?"

Dan Yangzi laughed and stroked his long white beard.

"Shao Yan is not the head of the family after all, how can he know how hard I work? Since the death of Medicine Immortal and Talisman Immortal, Danxia Mountain has been the responsibility of this old Taoist, so my thoughts and concerns are inevitably long-term. Many people in the world praise Danxia Mountain, but think about it, Taoist friends, some people got elixirs in Danxia Mountain and thus formed a good relationship, but more people actually returned empty-handed, wasting their time in vain, and in the end got nothing. The more open-minded ones just think that there is no fate, while the narrow-minded ones will hold a grudge. Three thousand years of Danxia, ​​eight hundred miles of green mountains, ah, I don’t know how many people love and how many people hate..."

Hearing this, Xie Lian agreed, but also felt a little confused.

What she naturally agreed with was Danyangzi's foresight. Over the past three thousand years, Danxia Mountain had created good relationships with many people, but it had also brought harm to many people. However, there was nothing that could be done about it.

Elixirs are not easy to come by, you can't just give them to anyone, right?

Some people passed the test and got the chance to practice Buddhism, and they were overjoyed and were thinking about the good things about Danxia Mountain.

The losers will think that Danxia Mountain is hypocritical, saying that it is helping people but setting tests and not treating everyone equally.

There is no way to think about this matter in detail, let alone solve it. Human nature is complicated, it always is.

Xie Lian didn’t care about this. Even if someone secretly held a grudge against him, Danxia Mountain was still a famous and authentic sect, so of course he wouldn’t be afraid. Danyangzi’s words didn’t reveal any fear, it seemed more like he was just complaining and expressing his feelings.

But the problem is, this is the first time they met. Why would Danyangzi complain and express such emotion in front of Xie Lian?

As if realizing what Xie Lian was thinking, Dan Yangzi said.

"Do you think what I said is a little abrupt~?"

Xie Lian gradually recovered from his shock. Even though the person in front of him was a real immortal, it was just that, and he had no ill intentions. He should just treat him normally, so he stopped worrying about anything and nodded.

"It is a little bit." Danyangzi looked apologetic.

"The old Taoist did make some mistakes."

Then he changed the subject and said.

"I have lived for thousands of years, how could I not know the principle of speaking to a distant relative? I just don't know why, when I met you, I felt so close to you. Thinking about your kindness to my old friend's only daughter, I felt even closer. So I lost my temper and said such heartfelt words to you on our first meeting. Don't blame me, don't blame me."

Hearing this, Xie Lian was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

What does it mean that people become smarter as they age?
This is a standard example.

So he's waiting for her here.

But it must be said, who doesn’t like to hear good words? Especially good words spoken by a great True Immortal himself, even Xie Lian felt somewhat benefited, and said with a smile.

"I never thought that a great alchemy master could not only make excellent elixirs, but also speak such beautiful words. Please come in quickly. It is not proper to talk in front of the door."

Xie Lian quickly made a gesture of invitation.

"Haha, if I didn't know how to say these nice words to please others, I wouldn't be able to make pills. I might have offended others and been beaten to death when I was a teenager."

Dan Yangzi bowed again, then accepted the invitation and walked in from outside.

After all, he was a true immortal, so he naturally wouldn't feel restrained or embarrassed. After coming in, he looked around.

"My humble abode is simple and cannot compare to the immortal cave. I am sorry to make the Alchemy Immortal laugh at me."

Xie Lian stood aside and said with a smile.

Danyangzi smiled, shook his head after hearing this, and his gaze finally fixed on the old locust tree.

"You are wrong, my friend. Although Danxia Mountain is a blessed place, I do not live in a high-rise building. As early as two thousand years ago, I lived in a hut in the back mountain. If you really count it, it is not as good as your courtyard. It looks simple, but it is actually natural. Maybe it is because you have lived here for a long time, and there is a faint Taoist charm flowing in it. If you live here for dozens or hundreds of years, maybe this place can really become a blessed place for enlightenment."

"Especially the old locust tree in your courtyard, it really makes me jealous."

"If I were a thick-skinned Taoist in the past, I would have shamelessly asked you for it."

What he said was half true and half false, but it seemed that he was really interested in the old locust tree.

This aroused the old locust tree's vigilance.

It couldn't feel how terrifying the person in front of it was, but it just thought instinctively, how could the friend of its master be any worse?

At that moment, a sense of crisis arose, and the branches and leaves all shrank back, as if someone was hugging him and trembling.

"You fool, how could the Danxian be interested in you? It was just a joke, but you actually took it seriously."

Xie Lian found this amusing and quickly brewed some tea, motioning for Dan Yangzi to sit down.

But Dan Yangzi shook his head and said.

"There is one thing you must agree to. If you don't agree, I will never dare to sit here."

Xie Lian was stunned.

"Please speak, Alchemist."

Danyangzi pointed at his nose, looking depressed.
"Fellow Daoist, you are too polite. You keep calling me Danxian. I am really uncomfortable with you. Do you look down on me?"
