Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 435

Bai Shixue smiled sweetly and asked, 'Brother Zuoqiu, who's this? Aren't you going to introduce her to us?"
The young lady's face changed. She turned to look at the mountainous Multi-armed King Kong, then at Wu Hanning and the others, who were calm. "That giant beast's also your…" She could not finish her sentence.
Indeed, nobody would have associated such a ferocious spirit beast with a human's pet.
In actual fact, Big Yellow's abilities were also extremely suspicious, let alone a humongous creature like Multi-armed King Kong.
Zuoqiu Hongyuan said with a smile, "Miss Jiang, that giant beast's a pet of a good friend of mine. Were you fighting against a half-spirit insect just now?"
"That's right." The young lady raised her eyebrows and asked in shock, "Did it come to save me?"
"Yes." Zuoqiu Hongyuang chuckled and nodded.
The young lady twitched her mouth and thought, 'I could've slaughtered that weird creature even if this giant beast didn't come. It frightened me so much that I ended up escaping instead…'
All of a sudden, a shadow was seen in the sky as though there was a strike of lightning. It suddenly stopped and hung in mid-air when it was near the ground, which was completely against the law of physics.
It was a massive goshawk, which was not as big as Multi-armed King Kong but was much larger than the big yellow dog.
The young lady gasped because she had just encountered three fearsome beasts. Nonetheless, she no longer wanted to flee because she knew they were someone's pets.
She was incredibly curious about the heroic figure that managed to tame the fierce beasts.
Before long, the young last noticed a young man hopping off the goshawk.
She widened her eyes at this moment, and a question echoed in her mind.
'It's him, it's him—how can it be him?'
Zuoqiu Hongyuan was surprised. He had been focusing on the young lady ever since she showed up.
When he noticed the sudden change in her expression, he could not help but worry.
Ou Yangming laughed out loud. "Brother Zuoqiu, do you know this… Young lady?"
Seeing as Zuoqiu Hongyuan was being so nervous and had even protected the young lady without any hesitation, Ou Yangming figured out a thing or two.
"Let me introduce her to you." Zuoqiu Hongyuan forced a smile, then she pointed at the young lady. "This is Miss Jiang Jiumei from Yongxiang County's Mysterious Mirror Sect. Her talent in martial arts is unparalleled, and it's the best I've ever seen."

Wu Hanning looked up in shock. "Jiang Jiumei—you're the martial arts genius from the Mysterious Mirror Sect."
Ou Yangming's face changed, and he looked at the young lady in confusion. He wanted to give a response, but he could not let out a word.
"Boom—"
At last, Multi-armed King Kong arrived. It shook the half-dead two-legged lizard in its hand and widened its mouth to roar.
The big yellow dog barked at the king kong as it was disgruntled, but it sounded much weaker than the spirit beast.
Ou Yangming waved his hand, so Multi-armed King Kong sat embarrassedly. Even so, it grabbed the lizard tightly as it did not want to give the goshawk a chance to steal it.
The young fellow later took a deep breath and asked, "Miss Jiang, where are you from?"
Everyone else looked at him strangely because they could not understand why he raised the question.
Ou Yangming was not a flirt. Anyone else would have been enchanted by Wu Hanning and Bai Shixue and would have flung themselves at their feet. On the contrary, Ou Yangming's heart belonged to Ni Yinghong only, and he always placed her first.
How could someone like him suddenly ask about the hometown of a newly-acquainted young lady?
Jiang Jiumei looked down and bowed at Ou Yangming. "I'm Jiang Jiumei. Thanks for everything, Master Ou."
The other people were taken aback, and they looked at them in disbelief.
Not only was Jiang Jiumei publicly acknowledged as a martial arts genius, but she was also a formidable Supreme Great Ancestor. How could someone like her kowtow at Ou Yangming?
Ou Yangming moved away to avoid the salutation, but he was surprised and overjoyed. "Jiang Jiumei, it's really you!"
Zuoqiu Hongyuan twitched his mouth and thought, 'You don't say? Who else can she be…'
Jiang Jiumei got up and smiled. "Yes, it's me."
Ou Yangming approached Jiang Jiumei and studied her face closely even though the others stared at him oddly.
Jiang Jiumei was not as graceful as Wu Hanning and the other ladies nor was she born a beauty. That said, the persistent lady had an unyielding spirit and a special temperament, which were like blooming flowers on her body. As such, she did not seem inferior to anyone at all.
"You're so alike. You're… His younger sister indeed!" Ou Yangming mumbled. For some reason, he experienced an upsurge of emotions and felt a lump in his throat.

On the other hand, Jiang Jiumei lowered her head slowly. She was a tough lady, or she could not have achieved what she did so far. Nevertheless, the young lady became unusually soft as if her heart was pierced by something.
"Master Ou, thanks for everything you did for me and my elder brother."
"No, it was my responsibility." Ou Yangming shook his head and added sorrowfully, "I didn't take good care of you and made you suffer from injustice. I'm sorry for your elder brother and you. In fact, I should apologize to you instead."
He cupped his hands and bowed at Jiang Jiumei.
Jiang Jiumei's face changed, but she held him and said, "Master Ou, you mustn't say that."
Ou Yangming felt like the delicate hands, which were supporting his arms, were like a towering mountain. He could not bend forward anymore even if he tried.
Sure enough, the young lady had the power of a Supreme Great Ancestor.
Ni Yinghong's eyes lit up, and she curled her lips into a delightful smile. "Ah, so this is Jiang Jiumei."
The other people including Zuoqiu Hongyuan looked at her.
Ni Yinghong explained, "Lil' Ming had a comrade called Jiang Chengwei, who's Jiang Jiumei's elder brother. His comrade died protecting him, so he has been bearing it in mind. Jiang Jiumei lived in Changlong County's prefecture but was forced to leave by the imperial merchant and ended up disappearing. In the end, Lil' Ming punished the imperial merchant but couldn't find her, so he had been very guilty about it. I can't believe they're finally meeting each other."
Through her brief explanation, she made everything clear.
Everyone else came to a sudden realization and finally understood the reason behind the strange atmosphere between them.
Zuoqiu Hongyuan was secretly relieved.
Ou Yangming stood up again and noted, "Miss Jiang, I'm truly happy now that I know you're safe and sound, but there's something I don't understand."
Jiang Jiumei smiled. Her eyes were still red, but she curbed her excitement and responded, "Master Ou, are you going to ask why I came here and became a Supreme Great Ancestor?"
The young fellow nodded and expressed sincerely, "Miss Jiang, stop addressing me as a master. If you don't mind, you can treat me as your elder brother. As long as you're willing to, you'll be my dear younger sister from now on."
Jiang Jiumei's lips trembled. She would not have bothered if someone else had said that.
However, it was different because Ou Yangming was the one who suggested it.
She nodded and uttered, "Elder Brother."
It was not pretentious, and she did not hesitate at all; the young lady had subconsciously made her decision.
Ou Yangming laughed out loud. "Alright! From today onward, I'll have a younger sister."
Seeing as he was elated, Ni Yinghong and the two other young ladies were slightly jealous.
Having said that, it was better this way than to have another rival in love.
Jiang Jiumei giggled. She looked more relaxed now.
Ou Yangming spoke again after a long time, "Younger Sister, please continue."
"On that day, I met my current teacher, who said I'm gifted and encountered a lucky chance. I was asked if I'm willing to go to the Mysterious Mirror Sect," Jiang Jiumei stated and smiled before she continued, "I was obviously willing to join the sect, so I left and was acknowledged during the Master and Apprentice Meet. Later on, I received the sect's inheritance and was given this magic longsword."
When Ou Yangming studied her longsword, he could vaguely sense the weapon's mightiness.
Nonetheless, he had smithed plenty of magic skill tools, so he did not attach much importance to it.
"I cultivated hard and broke through boundaries, then I arrived at the Extreme Grade in the end. Now that the Insects are invading the city, I'd like to do something for the Humans, so I came outside to seek some information. Who knew, I stumbled upon a half-spirit beast, but it showed up during our fight." Jiang Jiumei turned to look at Multi-armed King Kong, but she was still slightly afraid of it.
The enormous creature's appearance was truly appalling and memorable, so it could not be forgotten.
Multi-armed King Kong seemed to have found out about the relationship between Ou Yangming and the young lady. It no longer ignored her, and it flashed the gentlest smile ever.
Despite that, from the other people's perspective, the king kong's smile was as horrifying as it could get.
