Chapter 716: Chapter 560 Trouble Comes_1
In this place, He Song had already met all three Golden Elixir Masters who managed the Family businesses.
However, today, no one from the Golden Core Families had come to invite He Song to a banquet.
Regarding this, He Song was happy to have some peace and quiet and did not pay much attention to it.
Within the Hu Prefecture, there were only three Golden Core Families.
In the past three days, He Song had been invited each day, mainly because each of these three Families wanted to get acquainted with He Song.
Now that three days had passed and He Song had met with people from all three Families,
it was only natural that he did not receive another invitation today, three days later.
He Song was well aware of this situation and did not mind at all.
Just as He Song was sitting down in a small pavilion, pondering the message from Master Luo Jing,
a Golden Core energy suddenly appeared outside his mansion.
With the emergence of this energy, He Song’s brows twitched, and his gaze immediately turned outside his mansion.
At the same time, a voice also came from outside his mansion.
“The young lady Youyun has come today to pay respects to the Master. I wonder if the Master could grace me with a meeting?”
Outside He Song’s mansion, True Monarch Youyun’s expression was as usual, her gaze on the mansion with a fleeting look of anticipation in her eyes.
True Monarch Youyun’s visit today actually had no urgent matter.
Nevertheless, her Master, True Monarch Ling Yun, had once said that having more friends opens more paths.
In the Cultivation World, having a multitude of friends means a smoother journey everywhere.
Previously when True Monarch Ling Yun went out to visit friends and left True Monarch Youyun alone to preside over Hu Prefecture, it was the best implementation of that philosophy.
Under the teachings and personal example of her Master, True Monarch Youyun naturally harbored the thought of making acquaintances with an outside Golden Elixir Master like He Song.
At the same time, this was also the reason why True Monarch Youyun had previously agreed to conduct a trade with He Song, personally sought by Master Luo Jing.
Originally, True Monarch Youyun did not know Master Luo Jing.
Otherwise, how could she have agreed to it?
And it was True Monarch Ling Yun’s teachings that brought True Monarch Youyun to He Song’s mansion, visiting him in person.
Her visit indeed had no other intentions.
She merely wanted to get acquainted with He Song.
Maybe, after getting to know each other, she would be able to add another friend to her circle.
When she agreed to trade with He Song, at the behest of Master Luo Jing, she held this thought and got to know both Master Luo Jing and He Song.
With this intention in mind, the expectation in True Monarch Youyun’s gaze towards He Song’s mansion became slightly more intense.
Just as True Monarch Youyun, with a hopeful glint in her eyes, looked towards He Song’s mansion,
a strange expression flickered across He Song’s face.
This True Monarch Youyun.
He Song had already met her before.
Previously, after trading with True Monarch Youyun, she had enthusiastically exchanged the energies of Sound Transmission Amulets with He Song so that they could keep in touch frequently.
In the subsequent interactions, although not frequent, there indeed were a few between True Monarch Youyun and He Song.
He Song had also come to know a bit about True Monarch Youyun’s background.
However, they ultimately were not particularly close to each other.
That’s why He Song had thought that True Monarch Youyun probably wouldn’t give him much of a discount or keep secrets for him.
But now, for the sake of his safety, He Song had changed his appearance and come to this place again, only to find True Monarch Youyun unexpectedly knocking at his door.
He Song naturally understood what True Monarch Youyun had in mind by coming to his door.
In the past interactions with True Monarch Youyun, she had told He Song about the teachings of Master Ling Yun.
Master Ling Yun loved making friends.
This could be seen from how he had specifically gone out to visit friends, leaving his disciple in charge of the Treasure Pavilion.
And True Monarch Youyun, naturally, had developed an obsession with this idea under the teachings of Master Ling Yun since she was young.
For an outside Gold Core cultivator like He Song,
and moreover, one who would be staying in the Hu Prefecture for several months,
she would definitely not let go of the opportunity.
Even if they could not become good friends in the end, getting to know He Song could potentially broaden her horizons.
This matter was not bad in itself.
Whether for He Song or True Monarch Youyun, it could be considered a good thing.
If the two got along well, they might even become friends.
For He Song, who had already exchanged the energies of the Sound Transmission Amulets with True Monarch Youyun, this was somewhat troublesome.
Since they had already exchanged energies through Sound Transmission Amulets and had interacted before,
if True Monarch Youyun later wished to exchange the energies in the Sound Transmission Amulets again…
He Song’s identity would inevitably be exposed.
When that happened, never mind how awkward He Song would feel,
the consequences of his identity being revealed were something He Song could not afford to face.
When He Song traded with True Monarch Youyun before, he had neither changed his appearance nor his dharma title.
He had conducted the trade as Master Cang Song, True Monarch Youyun’s direct counterpart.
The matter had not been due to a lack of caution on He Song’s part, but because his trade with True Monarch Youyun had been orchestrated by Master Luo Jing.
The one designated by Master Luo Jing to conduct the trade with True Monarch Youyun had to be He Song himself.
