Chapter 2: Immortal

On the Kunlun Mountain Ancient Road.

Ye Bei walked slowly in a black gown.

It was winter…

Pieces of goose-feathered snowflakes fell.

The gown on his body was quite thin, but in this environment, he did not seem to feel cold at all.

"The last time I came here, it was eighty years ago, I don't know if those guys are still there." His eyes calmly looked at the snow that kept drifting by, and the continuous mountain peaks that became a little strange.

Ye Bei walked very slowly.

He reached out his hand from time to time, let the white snowflakes fall, and finally turned into a pool of water stains and disappeared.

Although it snowed heavily today, there were still many tourists passing by.

"No matter what life it is, there are similar faces, but it's a pity that they only look the same, they are no longer ancient…" After occasionally glancing at the surrounding tourists, Ye Bei sighed slightly in his heart.

But just when Ye Bei was ready to speed up his pace, a very sweet-looking girl with a ponytail rushed to his side.

"Handsome guy, you're walking alone? Are you interested in getting to know each other? This is my mobile phone number."

The girl was very enthusiastic while speaking as she quickly took out a pen and paper, wrote her phone number, and handed it to Ye Bei.

However, Ye Bei did not pick it up, he just glanced at the girl calmly and then moved on.

Ninety thousand years!

There were so many beauties who used to surround Ye Bei.

He had seen Da Ji1 of the Shang Dynasty danced enchantingly, he had also seen Wu Zetian ascended to the throne of the emperor. 

Once, there was a confidante beside him, whose beauty was lovely enough to cause the downfall of a country.

The girl was rejected by Ye Bei, but she was not annoyed, instead, she retreated with a smile as if she had done a proud thing just now, and shared with her friends not far away.

"That man is so handsome!"

"Yes, he's just a bit cold!"

"To be honest, that temperament of his is really fascinating!"

"If he was my boyfriend, that would be great."

Hearing these voices, Ye Bei did not even turn his head, he just moved on.

On the way, Ye Bei attracted too many eyes.

"How strange are that man's clothes? It's snowing in Kunlun Mountain, at least a few degrees below zero, right? His clothes are like an ancient gown, it's so thin, doesn't he feel cold?" Someone frowned slightly, their tone was full of doubt.

"Hurry up, what's so interesting here?"

There were also a couple of lovers, among them, the guy felt ashamed after seeing Ye Bei, so he immediately urged his girlfriend to leave.

However, there were naturally some very wise people here too.

"This man… is so strange! I always feel that there is an inexplicable and unique temperament around him, but I can't really tell it. His eyes are full of vicissitudes as if he has experienced many things." An old man in a Chinese tunic suit leaned on the chair, when his eyes met Ye Bei, his body suddenly stunned, after a long time, he reacted and kept shaking his head.

Of course, not everyone was like this.

There would always be some discordant sounds.

"What's so great about being handsome? Wearing so little, this idiot will be frozen to death sooner or later. Is he pretending to be an expert? That's really shameless, does he think he is the Old Immortal of Kunlun Mountain?" A young man in a black suit and shiny leather shoes said in a disdainful tone.

The two companions who followed him glanced at Ye Bei, then ignored him, and then they began to fawn.

"Hehehe, Young Master Wu is right."

"There are too many idiots… By the way, Young Master Wu, do you think the Old Immortal will really meet us this time?" The two companions asked excitedly.

"I don't know if he'll see us or not, but since I brought you here today, I will definitely let you see him. Let me tell you, that Old Immortal is a real immortal and is very omnipotent, many heads of state asked to see him, but he ignored them. I heard that he only meets one person every year regardless of his identity, furthermore, after each meeting, that person will surely rise to the top. Among all the people who have met him, some have become super rich in charge of hundreds of billions of assets, and some have become big bosses in charge of life and death, their power is terrible…" He said in a low voice, for fear of being heard by others.

When he said this, all eyes around him were in awe and expectation.

Kunlun Mountain Old Immortal?

Ye Bei shook his head slightly after hearing this word.

Eighty years!

It seemed that his unintentional act at the beginning caused an old person to spend his life…

"Never mind, since I'm already here, let's go and see him." Ye Bei murmured, then he accelerated his pace and moved forward quickly.

Ten minutes later.

Kunlun Mountain, near the Longevity Temple, Ye Bei slowed down.

There were many people here, looking at it, there seemed to be thousands of them…

Their voices were loud.

From time to time, some people took out their mobile phones to take pictures of this Taoist temple.

From time to time, some people whispered to each other.

On both sides of the building, there were many special police officers in uniform standing with weapons in their hands. Their faces were serious, their sharp gazes swept the tourists from time to time, any abnormality could immediately attract their attention.

Ye Bei stood on the stone steps, glancing at the rusty view of Longevity Temple, the corner of his mouth were slightly raised.

It seemed that the kid from that day was doing pretty well now.

He began to step forward, however, as only two steps were taken, he was stopped by a few people.

"Hey boy, do you know where this is? This is the residence of the Old Immortal of Kunlun Mountain, even if the emperor is here, he still has to stand here obediently. Seeing you like this, is it possible that you want to go inside?"

It was Young Master Wu who was talking earlier, and at this moment, he still looked at Ye Bei with sarcasm.

"Young Master Wu, I think this guy must have overheard what you said just now, so he wants to try his luck." A guy next to him said.

"Do you think you can see the Old Immortal in such a long gown? I'm speechless now!" Another person talked.

But Ye Bei did not say anything, he just glanced at the three people lightly.

After the latter made contact with Ye Bei's gaze, his whole body trembled, there seemed to be a momentary black in his mind. When he reacted again, he had already seen Ye Bei approach the gate of the Longevity Temple.

"No entry here!" The voice of a special police officer was cold.

"Without the consent of the owner, you can only visit around here." Another special police came over and stared at Ye Bei vigilantly.

"This kid is so brave!"

"Asshole, he really takes himself seriously, that's quite cool!"

"It was weird just now!"

Of the three young people, some were gloating and some were questioning.

The tourists around the Longevity Temple at this time were all in an uproar.

"Someone wants to break into the Longevity Temple!"

"Everyone, come and watch!"

"Today, the Old Immortal is said to be coming out to preach everyone, is this guy here to make trouble?"

"I strongly recommend taking this idiot away!"

Countless tourists were screaming frantically, those special police officers became even more nervous under these voices. They stared at Ye Bei with round eyes as if he would be subdued on the spot as long as he did anything.

"Creak…"

However, when the atmosphere on the scene was extremely intense, the door to the Longevity Temple was opened.

An old man with a demeanor of a transcendent being stood at the door.

The moment he saw Ye Bei… the old man's body trembled directly!

  1. Da Ji, the favorite concubine of King Zhou, the last ruler of the Shang Dynasty. Wu Zetian (624-705), Tang empress, reigned 690-705.

A little impatience will spoil great plans.

Chapter 3: Master

"Old…"

At the entrance of the Longevity Temple, the old man could not stop shaking after seeing Ye Bei.

His appearance that had always been extremely calm collapsed at this moment, his voice was a little hoarse.

"Go in and talk!" Ye Bei interrupted directly, he did not talk much, but these simple four words carried an aura that could not be rejected.

Nearby, after those special police officers heard the four words from Ye Bei, they only felt a sudden chill.

Since the Kunlun Mountain's Old Immortal became famous, no one had ever dared to speak to him in this tone.

At the entrance of the temple, the tourists were even angrier.

"Boy, are you looking for death?" Someone barked.

"You actually dare to disturb the Old Immortal; don't you want to live anymore?" 

"How can you talk to the Old Immortal this way? You should immediately kneel down and apologize, and then scram." Some people stared at Ye Bei with angry eyes and cursed fiercely.

"Who do you think you are? You feel awesome just because you're handsome?" Some people gritted their teeth, wishing to rush up and tear Ye Bei to pieces.

At this moment, Young Master Wu disdained Ye Bei even more, at the same time, he calmly spoke to the two friends next to him, "Don't look at this Old Immortal's very approachable aura, last time, someone dared to talk to him like this was thrown into a mental hospital by those special police officers."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true, the higher position you are in, the more taboos you will have. Think about it, if you are an immortal, then a little punk provokes you… if you don't kill him, it counts as giving him a gift, right?"

"Sure, if I were an immortal, whoever dared to raise his head and talk to me like that, I would never let him go!"

The two young men nodded seriously in a deep agreement.

However, just when those special police officers and countless tourists were preparing to take action on Ye Bei, the old man's complexion gradually turned cold, "Shut up all! Who dares continue to be disrespectful, never come to Kunlun Mountain again!"

The sound was not loud but strong and powerful.

And when these words fell, the entire Taoist temple was suddenly silent.

Some people who could not understand Ye Bei felt that he was definitely going to be unlucky today. Those special police officers did not dare to look at the Old Immortal at all, for fear that he would blame them for their negligence and punish them together. At the same time, they looked at Ye Bei with a fierce face, thinking that they must find a chance to teach him a lesson.

When everyone was thinking carefully, the movement of the Old Immortal made countless people speechless.

They saw him turn to Ye Bei, bent over slightly, and Ye Bei in the front entered the Longevity Temple without anyone else.

When his body submerged in the Longevity Temple, the Old Immortal stretched out his trembling hands and slowly closed the door.

"This…"

Outside the door, Young Master Wu was spitting wildly at the two companions, saying how terrible the Old Immortal was, but now, he was completely stunned on the spot, like being struck by lightning, he could not let out a word for a long time.

"What happened?" Someone looked dumbfounded.

"The Old Immortal actually met that person alone?" Some people murmured with eyes wide.

"Who took the photo just now? This is a big matter, if I'm correct, this is the first time the Old Immortal sees a person alone this year, that kid will definitely rise to an unimaginable height in the future, there will be another big man again!"

Some people yelled after reacting, there was also a mixture of jealousy and regret in their eyes.

As for the special police officers standing at the door, they looked at each other grimly.

"Block this place immediately!"

"No one is allowed to make noise, besides, please leave!"

It took a long time for these special police officers to come back to their senses, they put their rifles on their chests and blocked the door, their faces were cold and aggressive. Near that, the tourists who had risen in the uproar slowly calmed down.

But no one left the place yet, they were waiting, they felt that after Ye Bei entered, he would definitely come out.

They thought that if Ye Bei was so disrespectful just now, maybe there would be no good thing going in.

Inside the temple.

When Ye Bei visited the Kunlun Mountain in the past, he built this place causally. After coming here again today, Ye Bei's first feeling was that he was familiar with it…

Yes, very familiar, but in that familiarity, there was also much strangeness.

In the yard, that little peach tree was already old, the trunk was full of black sticky things, some thick branches were supported by iron frames, but even so, there was a feeling that they would crumble down at any moment.

The walls of the buildings were eroded by cracks, and the iron nails on them were even rustier.

Also, buried in the yard was a tombstone, it seemed that an image of a big yellow dog manifested and came back again, wagging its tail, sticking out his tongue, and spinning around Ye Bei's side.

Ye Bei looked at all this quietly, but there was no emotion in his eyes.

Thump!

At this moment, the Old Immortal of Kunlun Mountain's demeanor completely disappeared from his body and replaced with the appearance of a normal rickety old man.

After he entered the courtyard, he walked to Ye Bei and knelt on the ground with a thump of his legs.

"Master!" The voice was hoarse; his old tears were running down.

Ye Bei focused his attention on this old man in silence.

Upon seeing this, the old man who was kneeling on the ground continued intermittently, "Master, it's my fault, I did not take good care of Ah Huang, about ten years after you left, he died, he was catching a pheasant in the mountain and was killed by a wolf, I retrieved his body and buried it in the courtyard, every year, he would be covered with new soil."

"Master, I did not take care of the peach tree properly, since last year, it has not been able to bloom, this year, I invited the best botanist, they said that the peach tree can only live two more years."

"Master, I have maintained the outlook of Longevity Temple every year, everything here is the way you arranged it at the beginning, it hasn't changed at all. It's just that the years have been too long and many things have gradually lost their effect."

The voice of the old man kept on.

Ye Bei stood in the courtyard and listened quietly.

After a long time, he said slightly, "I know."

The tone was very quiet and cold, hardly any emotions were revealed.

However, the man who was kneeling on the ground was overwhelmed after hearing it, and he was overjoyed.

Ye Bei did not speak much, nor did he explained how to deal with it.

However, the old man understood it very well that Ye Bei did not care about those things.

He quickly got up from the ground, "Master, I will make tea for you. Also, I will inform others of your return immediately… let them come and see you." After speaking, he walked towards the house.

If the scene happening here was seen by the people outside, they would definitely be shocked till their jaws dropped to the ground.
