AWB Chapter 42 Fairy Bath
Chapter 42 Fairy Bath
Shen Yao took a sip of tea and then touched the temperature of the pool water; it was just right.
The salted fish had already swum around in the hot spring once, and seeing that Shen Yao still hadn't gone into the water, it called out, "Come on down! The water in this pool is full of spiritual energy!"
Shen Yao sat by the pool watching her and said, "Take off your clothes."
Salty Fish said "Oh" and started taking off his clothes.
Shen Yao saw the green shirt on the salted fish slowly fade into scales, attach to her body, and then quickly disappear from her skin.
So that's how you take off clothes! Shen Yao was quite surprised.
The salted fish stood up from the pool, spread its arms wide: "See? You can take it off now."
Shen Yao covered her eyes with both hands, oh dear, she was going to get a sty.
Then she remembered that everyone was a woman, so she put her hands down and jumped into the pool.
Enveloped in the warm pool water, Shen Yao rested her head on the pool pillow, closed her eyes happily, and exclaimed, "So comfortable!"
The salted fish had transformed back into its original form and was swimming happily in the water: 'This water is so full of life, and so pure! I love it!'
The Purple Cloud Golden Beetle had already entered the Originium Space.
The Cloud Cliff Black-hoofed Beast has not yet awakened.
Little Stone Treasure lay fast asleep on the back of the Cloud Cliff Black Hoof Beast, and the beast did not react, only its horns continued to glow.
The little koi fish were having a blast in the water.
A moment later, it leaped out of the pool and slammed back in with a "bang".
One moment she's blowing bubbles in the water, the bubbles enveloping her, then she floats to the surface, bursts open, and the little koi fish crashes back in with a "bang"...
Shen Yao didn't want to move at all. She leaned against the pool pillow, listening to the constant "bang bang" sounds, and enjoyed a comfortable hot spring bath.
……
The Immortal Bathing Pool, the Cabinet Hall.
A solemn immortal entered the hall.
The shop assistant greeted him respectfully: "Second Elder, why have you come in person?"
The solemn immortal looked around the counter and asked in a low voice, "Have they left?"
The shopkeeper's eyes darted around. The only two female immortals visiting for the afternoon's repairs were those two, and the Second Elder would definitely ask them: "Second Elder, not yet."
The solemn immortal whispered, "When they left, you said this..."
……
The little koi fish had finally had its fun and turned into a salted fish, leaning against the pond pillow next to Shen Yao.
"Ah, this feels so good!" exclaimed the salted fish. "I haven't played in the water like this in ages!"
Shen Yao squinted her eyes: "Later, we'll find a good city, buy a prime location, build a house, and dig a big pool for you, with hot spring water."
The salted fish asked, "What if there's no hot spring water?"
Shen Yao opened her eyes, looked at her and said, "Then find ten female cultivators with fire spiritual roots. You swim in the lake while they heat the water."
"Hahahaha." Salty Fish suddenly burst into laughter: "Then I'll become boiled fish, won't I? Hahahahaha."
Shen Yao was also amused: "Hahaha, that's true, hahaha."
When Shen Yao and Xianyu came out, the shop assistant greeted them warmly again: "You two immortals, are you leaving already?"
Shen Yao didn't stop walking and casually hummed in agreement.
The shopkeeper then asked, "Is the immortal satisfied with the Immortal Spring Water?"
Shen Yao stopped, and so did the salted fish. After thinking for a moment, Shen Yao gave a serious and positive review: "The hot spring is very good, we are very satisfied."
The shopkeeper said happily, "I'm glad you're satisfied, Master. Will you come again tomorrow?"
Shen Yao: "We're not coming. We're leaving tomorrow."
The shop assistant said regretfully, "Does the immortal have a place to stay? If not, Xiao Yi can arrange it."
Shen Yao: "Thanks, we'll stay at the inn."
After saying that, Shen Yao didn't say anything more to him, and pulled Xianyu away.
Just as they were about to leave the hall, the solemn immortal called out to them, "Please wait, fairies."
Shen Yao and Xianyu stopped and turned around.
"What is it?" Shen Yao glanced at the solemn immortal: "I can't see any spiritual roots, but they're higher than ours."
The solemn immortal approached, holding a wooden plaque: "May I ask where the two fairies are headed tomorrow?"
Shen Yao looked at him suspiciously.
The solemn immortal hurriedly explained, "Please don't misunderstand, fairies. I am Zhang Mo, the second elder of the Lishui Sect in this county, and also the manager of this Immortal Bath. You two fairies have spent quite a bit today. Our Lishui Sect also has a branch bath in Immortal Wood City..."
Shen Yao understood; this was a sales pitch. Seeing how generous Shen Yao was, they wanted her to go to the branch and make another purchase.
Adhering to the principle of not easily making enemies, Shen Yao accepted the wooden plaque and clasped her hands in thanks to Zhang Mo: "Thank you for your kindness, Second Elder. We will definitely visit you when we arrive in Immortal Wood City."
Zhang Mo smiled broadly: "I will inform the head of the bathhouse shortly, and I will certainly not neglect our two distinguished guests!"
Shen Yao: "Very well then, farewell, Elder!"
Zhang Mo's smile remained unchanged as he gently touched his palm: "Goodbye."
Smiling as he watched the two leave, Zhang Mo's face quickly fell as he saw Shen Yao and Xianyu walk away.
The shop assistant cautiously stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Second Elder, what is this...?"
Zhang Mo gestured for the shop assistant to go into the inner hall first. Once inside the inner hall's storeroom, the shop assistant closed the storeroom door and hurriedly asked in a low voice, "Uncle, what are the identities of those two fairies? Why are you being so polite to them?"
Zhang Mo: "Your cousin Zhang Cheng returned the day before yesterday."
The shop assistant exclaimed joyfully, "Big Brother is back! It's so good that Big Brother is back!"
Then, after a moment's thought, he asked, "Uncle, what does my brother's return have to do with those two fairies?"
Zhang Mo: "Your older brother escaped back."
Upon hearing this, the shop assistant exclaimed in disbelief, "What? How did you manage to escape back, brother?"
Zhang Mo sighed: "The young sect leader of Yunxia Sect, along with two seventh-grade upper-level disciples and three sixth-grade lower-level disciples, were killed eighteen months ago."
The shop assistant was confused and just stared at Zhang Mo.
Zhang Mo's voice was low and deep: "Do you know who killed you?"
The shop assistant shook his head.
Zhang Mo lowered his voice even further, almost whispering, "The young sect master of Yunxia Sect and his five disciples were all instantly killed by the two female cultivators in one move."
The shop assistant listened intently.
Zhang Mo whispered again, "According to the portrait Zhang Cheng gave me, the young sect master of Yunxia Sect had his soul core shattered by that blue-clad fairy today. The three sixth-grade low-rank disciples were also very likely killed instantly by the blue-clad fairy with a single move that pierced through the forbidden realm."
The shop assistant looked up, his eyes wide with astonishment.
Zhang Mo continued, "Two of the sixth-grade low-level disciples were simultaneously pierced through by the fairy from within the forbidden realm with a single move..."
The shop assistant listened with trepidation: "Uncle... this is really..."
“It’s truly terrifying,” Zhang Mo replied. “I felt the same way when I heard about it the other day. And I still feel the same way now that it’s mentioned.”
The shop assistant asked anxiously, "Uncle, what...what does this brother have to do with this matter?"
Zhang Mo: "Those two fairies killed the young sect master and disciples of the Yunxia Sect, but they did not take the storage space, nor did they take the Ten Perfect Coins."
Shopkeeper: "Those must be two fairies who don't want their stuff."
Zhang Mo nodded: "But they took the flying spirit treasures of the young sect master of Yunxia Sect and two other disciples, perhaps to keep them as evidence."
"When the elders of Yunxia Sect learned of this, they were all alarmed and ordered their disciples not to spread the news, and they did not want to investigate it further."
"After this incident, internal strife within the Yunxia Sect continued unabated."
"The sect leader of Yunxia Sect is beset by internal and external troubles, yet he is still not giving up. He is secretly tracking down the fairy's whereabouts, hoping to find an opportunity to take revenge."
"Your elder brother believed that the Yunxia Sect Master was acting arbitrarily, and that the Yunxia Sect might be completely destroyed in the future, so he took the opportunity to escape back."
Shop assistant: "Luckily, the boss escaped back."
Zhang Mo looked at the shopkeeper and said with relief, "Luckily you were quick-witted, Zhang Da. If you had offended those two fairies today, even your uncle wouldn't have been able to protect you."
Zhang Da laughed and said, "How could that be, Uncle? Hehe, I wouldn't dare offend anyone here."
"Okay, okay." Zhang Mo said, "Work hard, and I'll promote you to Xianmu City in the future. It's better than spending your whole life in Lishui County."
Zhang Daxi smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle."
