Chapter 899 Evermoon Palace
Her master just apologized? Did the suns rise in the west today? This should be impossible! Her master was a prideful and hot-headed ancestor of Evermoon Palace too. Aside from drinking and getting drunk, she was also someone who caused trouble around implicating the Evermoon Palace!
But what kind of situation was this? She felt that her world turned upside down.
"Luyi. You better grovel and ask for forgiveness if Young Noble didn't forgive you. If he still can't, offer your body. You can have my permission." The ancestor harrumphed and said, "You brought it yourself so you should pay for it."
"Master Lin..." Luyi felt crying, "Our dao law needs a pure body to cultivate. How can I offer myself?"
"That is your problem. So hurry and ask for forgiveness so that you will continue cultivating." Master Lin didn't back down and said, "I always teach you how to become a good model to your fellow sisters, but you aren't listening."
Luyi felt choking on these words. Taught how to become a good model...? She said? Aside from drinking heavily everyday, what did she teach her? Ah, there was one.
'Hit the guys on the head. They deserve it always.' Did this count as her teaching, then?
Jin Rou smiled wryly as he answered, "This is just a small matter. I teased her so apparently, she was provoked. I started it, so it's not her fault actually."
Hearing this, Luyi felt some thorns being removed in her chest. But how could her Master Lin let her be? "No, please punish her, Young Noble. Nowadays, she's getting out of hand and difficult to deal with. Even I as her master cannot tame her."
Luyi couldn't believe what she said. I'm getting out of hand? Compared to her Master Lin, she's already well behaved! How come she's getting out of hand? This time, she wanted to refute it as she felt like being sold to a slave trader.
But when she was about to, her master sent a telepathy towards her saying, 'We cannot let the Young Noble go. I'll explain something later on, but you cannot let him leave the place.'
Luyi was confused but she knew there must be a reason why she's acting this way. Thus, she kept silent.
"All right, all right. You're very obvious." Jin Rou chuckled and said, "Since this is fate, I will pay your palace a visit. This is the endgame of this play, right?"
Evermoon Palace was deeply connected with Han Li. Even after so many years of him not visiting them, the ancient ancestors there didn't forget the gratitude they felt for the other party.
Master Lin felt awkward as she was seen through. But since she's already here, she might as well resume, "The Young Noble's eyes are very discerning. Nothing can escape your eyes. It will be our Evermoon Palace's blessing to have you visit us."
Jin Rou and Meishei were led to another mountain peak where the Evermoon Palace was located. The area changed, but the palace itself looked very the same even after all these years. Since Sylvianna was resting, the duo was left.
After seeing the golden plaque of Evermoon, memories after memories suddenly resurfaced. The palace was a mere third-rate sect in the past and had been bullied many times. As the sight of the world for all girls sect was very low, they became constantly the target of bullying.
And this was when the progenitor of their palace met Han Li and helped her rebuild the sect again. With Han Li's help, the value of all girls sect in Mortalis rised dramatically. You couldn't even connect it to how they were treated in the past.
Now, although they were almost qualified to be a superpower, they didn't become complacent and most of the times, their disciples were in the premises. With less interaction with the world, many men dreamt of seeing and talking with them.
After all, the disciples and masters here were all very beautiful women. It's most men's dream to be surrounded by pretty flowers. Unfortunately, no one was able to.
As a matter of fact, many sects tried to request for a visit to the Evermoon Palace but all of them were denied entry. In the eyes of the masses, it was a mysterious powerhouse that could break the balance of the world.
"Such a capable woman, indeed." Jin Rou smiled and murmured. The progenitor proved her worth by paving the way for the palace. He just started it, but the one who finished it was their progenitor.
While everyone was denied entry, Jin Rou was here being personally received by the current palace master of the Evermoon Palace.
"Greetings, Young Noble. We are very pleased you are here. I am Palace Master Dina." The palace master was all smiles as she said, "For the meantime, my disciple will lead you to your room first to rest. We want you to enjoy your stay here as much as possible."
Meishei couldn't understand what's going on. Why were they received like they were all esteemed guests of this place? She couldn't wrap her head around it. Thus, she decided to go with the flow. She was already here, anyway.
Soon, a disciple named Xiaoxi led the duo to their room. It was one of the luxurious rooms that only the highest valued guests could have. Since Jin Rou was a man and Meishei was a woman, they should have had separate rooms but Meishei insisted to be on the same room.
After all, who knows what might happen? It's better to stick around near Jin Rou.

Palace Master Dina and Master Lin along with all the elders of the palace were present sitting on a round table. Their expressions were serious.
"Are you sure about this, Lin?" The palace master asked. Honestly they were betting for the slight chance. There's a higher chance that this was an error in assumption. But if he ever truly what was stated by Master Lin, then everything will be fine.
