The Legend of the Guardians of the East Gate
Ch. 14

Zhi Yuan you don't need to be so worried, I won't hurt the people in this Temple, does that answer the worries you have in mind?" ask Elder Zhang

Zhi Yuan stared unblinkingly at Elder Zhang and nodded so quietly.

"Chairman Zhang why did the chief monk lock you up in that prison? and how did you get out?" asked Zhi Yuan, who thought only bad people should be in prison.

Elder Zhang simply nodded behind his veil, and stood in favor by his staff, his height was almost the same as Zhi Yuan due to his stooped body. Elder Zhang stepped towards the iron bars, his corpse-like fingers waving sideways, and the iron bars became dust and carried by the gusts of wind from Elder Zhang's hands.

"i will tell you, there are no prisons or man-made seals capable of holding me back in this small world, because my true prison is this realm, this one, I stayed in this place for only one reason," Elder Zhang said.

"Well you're too young, maybe you don't understand what I really want to say, maybe I'll tell you what I am" Elder Zhang said.

Zhi Yuan nodded again, Naturally Zhang gave a badge made of wood, Zhi Yuan knowing if it was a badge for a special servant, they only worked for one person only.

"So morning the chief monk has come to this place, he has allowed you to be my personal servant, and from this moment on you no longer need to work in the Temple kitchen, you can focus on studying in your sect, making potions for me, as well as cleaning up this place, I will eat you if you laze around," Elder Zhang said.

And from that day on Zhi Yuan breathed a bit of relief, he was no longer so busy in the Temple kitchen, only cleaning up the old temple at the time of returning home from the sect, he was no longer so busy in the Temple kitchen, only cleaning up the old temple at the time of returning home from the sect, and the servants though were a little annoyed that usually Zhi Yuan helped them, yet they began to be able to appreciate the boy after serving a personal servant in the old temple.

Mid-spring in the year of the red bull.

Four years had already passed from the first day Xu Guang Zhou and Xiao Ling had come to the Sky Sword Sect.the two were now beautiful teenagers.

The 16-year-old Xu Guang Zhou began to show signs of his maturity, with his always neat clothes, his brownish hair pulled all over the back, and his, it was tied slightly above the head and partly let down as the cultivator did.

Likewise, Xiao Ling was now a beautiful girl and had a beautiful body, although the gaze looked a little cold, but when she smiled she was able to excite every young man who saw.

illustration of Xiao Ling.

That afternoon the three of them were celebrating the year of Xu Guang Zhou, they ordered a large amount of food even though there were no other guests except the three of them.

In another corner of the restaurant it looks like several tables have been put together to make it longer, and the special dishes of the restaurant are presented, it looks like some students in the upper swordsman realm are celebrating something.

And who became the source of light in that place was of course Li Xuyan who was now 17 years old, that day was not wearing her Sect attire, she said, she wore a silvery gold-colored outfit patterned with medium-sized flowers all over her clothes, making her look so fresh.

Xu Guang Zhou was unable to hide his admiration, yet the blood was like boiling upon seeing the young man who was sitting clinging to the woman who became his idol, the young man was Wang Kai.

"why does the young man always have to get the best?" inner Xu Guang Zhou and set his options to Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling looked at the direction of Xu Guang Zhou's gaze, the woman simply shook her head with a smile,

"Sister Zhou, I've known you so well you wouldn't eat if the food didn't suit your taste, you're so different from Zhi's sister, the boy did not even know what was going into his lips" Xiao Ling said.

Zhi Yuan stopped his chewing and looked at Xiao Ling with a sharp look, the woman just smiled.

"sister Zhou you are always looking for perfection in everything, and even in women's affairs also want the top, but trust me such a woman will be difficult for you to get, she said, men like you don't count that woman, you see those men that surround her? in addition to their handsome and dashing candidates for power all," said Xiao Ling.

Zhi Yuan looked towards the group of people and nodded,

"She looks so beautiful, but to me she's just Pela*cur, the last two years the woman has changed 6 times her partner, I heard she's been sleeping with half of her ex-partner, and this time he was approaching Elder Fei, a most handsome young elder in our sect," Xiao Ling said, with sparkling eyes.

Xu Guang Zhou chest felt slashed upon hearing all of Xiao Ling's words but the young man hid his feelings, and had already made up his mind.

With a smile Xu Guang Zhou took out his matchmaking badge, Xiao Ling stopped eating, and now even the beautiful woman sitting far away from them noticed the small activities of the three grown-up boys.

"I've already talked about it with the second Elder, and he has agreed that this badge I gave to Zhi Yuan's sister, and the second Elder advised that if the woman rejects you this matchmaking is void," said Xu Guang Zhou so calmly and thrust the half badge at Zhi Yuan.

Xiao Ling's eyes stared towards Zhi Yuan who received the badge, the three of them already knew about the meaning of the half badge.

"sister Zhou are you sure?" ask Zhi Yuan.

"Of course, after all I've found a woman that I like," Xu Guang Zhou said, his slightly flushed face staring towards Xiao Ling, making the woman just duck, saying, and Zhi Yuan simply nodded like he did not care, and only thought of his new badge as well as the food before him.

Xiao Ling closed her eyes deeply, and nodded her head once.

"aahhh, you two are driving me crazy, but if the second elder agrees, that means you're a sharp-mouthed brat, you'll have a future wife, so learn to speak politely, and you'll have a wife, in order for the woman not to reject you," Xiao Ling said her eyes widened, and looked displeased.

The three of them laughed and went back to enjoying their food while talking.

"Sister Zhi ate slowly, this food is so much you must be part of," Xiao Ling said with a small smile, that afternoon Xiao Ling was wearing slightly exposed clothes on her back.

Zhi Yuan simply nodded, and still tried to insert a large piece of meat into his slightly thick, duck-like lips.

"Zhi's sister you rarely talk, learn from big brother Zhou she is so polite and friendly, besides she is also so mature, girls love that," Xiao Ling said.

Zhi Yuan simply nodded as if agreeing with Xiao Ling's remark, making the woman become annoyed.

"At least you said something, ahh forget it, I don't want to talk to you," Xiao Ling said and began tasting Green Rose tea from the famous Dijie mountains in the restaurant.

Xu Guang Zhou stood up and enveloped Xiao Ling's open back.

"Sister Ling, the air is so cold you should put on my robe," Xu Guang Zhou said making Xiao Ling smile.

Zhi Yuan widened his eyes, and was unable to chew his food after seeing the affection.

"What'sthis? are you getting married?" zhi Yuan asked while trying to swallow his stuck food.

"uhukkk..." Xu Guang Zhou coughed at Zhi Yuan's words, his face looking reddish.

Xiao Ling clenched her hands and tightened her side teeth,

"Did you always say what was on your mind? at least think again before speaking, aahhh why this boy occasionally talking always makes me angry," Xiao Ling said annoyedly,

Xu Guang Zhou and Xiao Ling stared at each other for a moment, and the two of them turned their eyes around like they were so awkward.

Zhi Yuan looked at the two again, the corner of his right eyebrow slightly raised,

"look at the way you look, yes, you two are too suspicious" Zhi Yuan said with eyes full of probing.
