Chapter 136: Sakura Valley

Qin Xiaoxi nodded gratefully and walked out of the old lady’s house. After saying goodbye to the old lady, she continued on her journey to Sakura Valley.

Qin Xiaoxi held the Yue maiden sword tightly in her hand.

“Sister… Father, mother… grandmother, I will not let you down.” Qin Xiaoxi silently cheered herself up in her heart as she continued to approach the mountaintop.

Qin Xiaoxi also knew that she was getting closer and closer to the Sakura Valley.

Her father had said that the current leader of the Sakura Sect was her grandmother’s junior sister. Qin Xiaoxi was also extremely excited at the thought of meeting her soon.

A gentle breeze blew past.

The cherry blossoms in the forest began to slowly fall.

The scene was beautiful.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Xiaoxi reached the top of the mountain.

But in the next second, Qin Xiaoxi would never forget the scenery at the bottom of the mountain.

Looking down from here, there was no bottomless valley. At the bottom of the lying mountain, there was a vast plain. On the plain, there was a dense forest of cherry blossoms. Among the cherry blossoms, there were a few private houses, and at the furthest distance, Qin Xiaoxi could see that a huge building that looked like a temple was sitting not far away.

Looking closely, it did not look like a temple.

Qin Xiaoxi thought that this might be the location of the Sakura sect.

It was too beautiful.

The excited Qin Xiaoxi rushed down the mountain. In a few moments, she arrived at the plain that she had just seen. It was still filled with cherry blossom. The only difference was that there were many private houses built here.

The building that was as large as a temple was connected to a stone path that matched the cherry blossom forest perfectly.

Qin Xiaoxi walked forward step by step.

If she could record the scene here, she would share the beautiful scenery here with her father and sister, so that they could have a good look at the beautiful scenery of the Sakura Valley.

After walking for a while, Qin Xiaoxi finally arrived in front of this grand building.

The gate here was somewhat similar to the Qin family’s, but the only difference was that the stone stairs leading to the gate were much higher than the Qin family. Qin Xiaoxi strolled up the stairs and saw two women standing on each side of the gate.

These two women had weapons on their waists that looked like weapons hidden in the Western Regions. They were very slender and had a slight arc.

“Stop, who are you?”

One of the women saw Qin Xiaoxi was about to step into the door and quickly stopped her.

“I’m here to look for Sect Master Lin. I want to be her disciple,” Qin Xiaoxi replied, feeling slightly awkward.

The woman was a little surprised hearing this. “Sect Master Lin is out of the hall for some matters. If there’s nothing else, please go back first.”

“Where did she go?”Qin Xiaoxi asked curiously.

“We don’t know where the Sect Master is either. You can come back tomorrow. Besides, the Sect Master has already stopped accepting disciples.” The woman shook her head and told Qin Xiaoxi to go back first.

“Why?”

Qin Xiaoxi instantly felt very uncomfortable. She had come all the way here, but she found out that Sect Master Lin had stopped accepting disciples. However, she was here to acknowledge her as her master, so she could only stand at the door and wait.

“I don’t know. This is the SectMaster’s idea.”

“Then help me send a note. Besides acknowledging her as my master, I have something very important to show to Sect Master Lin.”

“What is it? Just give it to me.”The woman still had no intention of giving in.

“No, this thing must be shown to Sect Master Lin herself.” Qin Xiaoxi shook her head. “I’ll be at the side to wait for the Sect Master.”

The woman also didn’t say anything else, only sizing her up with a strange gaze.

Before they knew it, it was already past noon, and the sun was actually a little dazzling. Qin Xiaoxi hadn’t eaten anything either. She continued to stand at the entrance of the Sakura Sect and waited patiently.

The two women who had been guarding the entrance had long disappeared.

They had probably gone to eat?

At this moment, two figures appeared at the entrance.

They were the two female disciples who had been guarding the entrance.

“A Hui, it seems like this little girl has been standing here for a long time,” one of the women said.

“There’s nothing I can do. The Sect Master has been shut-in for the past few days and told us not to disturb her. How could I dare to go to Sect Master Zhao and tell him about this? Otherwise… A Xiang, go to the kitchen and get some food. Give it to this little girl first, I feel like she’s starving.”The woman called A Hui said to AhXiang who was beside her with some worry and helplessness.

“She’s persistent… oh well, I’ll go get some food now.” A Xiang sighed and walked toward the kitchen.

They were right.

She hadn’t eaten a meal since the morning, and the sun was shining brightly. Qin Xiaoxi felt dizzy for a moment.

But to get her master, she had to hold it in, she told herself. She could not help but clench her fists.

Soon, a woman came to Qin Xiaoxi with a bowl of water and a bowl of steamed buns.

It was the woman who had spoken to her.

“Why are you so stubborn? I see that you haven’t eaten anything yet. Eat something first.”The woman looked at Qin Xiaoxi and shook her head.

“Thank you…” Qin Xiaoxi looked at her gratefully. Then, she grabbed the steamed bun and took a bite for herself. After a few bites, she no longer felt dizzy

“Eat slowly… What’s your name?” The woman suddenly asked.

“Hmm? My name is… Qin Xiaoxi.”Qin Xiaoxi swallowed the last bite of the steamed bun with all her might. She had not eaten all this time, she was starving.

“Qin Xiaoxi… What a nice name.”

“What about you?”

The woman was surprised when she heard this. Then, she smiled and said, “My name is He hui. You can call me A Hui.”
