"Alright, you go ahead and get busy,"

Xu Fan gave his consent, and the apprentice nun left the guest room.

Now, within the room, only Xu Fan and Xia Xiaodie remained.

Having never been to such a place before, Xia Xiaodie sat in the room and couldn't help but look around curiously.

"Big dummy, what do you think about me becoming a nun here?"

"Pfft!"

Upon hearing Xia Xiaodie's sudden remark, the tea Xu Fan had just taken a sip of sprayed out.

This damn girl, does she really have to come up with such ideas one after another?

"If you become a little nun here, then I'll build a Monk Temple right across the street."

"At that time, heh heh heh, little master nun, you won't escape the palm of this old monk."

Xu Fan was now teasing Xia Xiaodie with a flourish.

Hmm, they say uniforms are tantalizing, but this little nun?

Hmm, it barely counts as uniform temptation, I suppose.

Honestly, Xu Fan was quite curious about who the little nun's mentor could be.

Logically, such a master should be known by the old immortal, shouldn't he?

But Xu Fan had never heard the old immortal mention this place for such a long time.

Chatting with Xia Xiaodie noncommittally, they soon heard footsteps outside.

"I'll go open the door."

Xu Fan greeted Xia Xiaodie and walked towards the doorway.

Without waiting for the other party to knock, Xu Fan opened the guest room door with a creak.

Seeing the woman standing at the door, he couldn't help but be startled.

The woman wasn't short, standing only a half-head shorter than Xu Fan, and her loose plain clothes couldn't hide her graceful figure.

On her plain-faced, striking face, a pair of cold, piercing eyes showed a hint of shock.

Clearly, she was startled by Xu Fan suddenly opening the door from inside the room.

Xu Fan was equally startled.

Logically, the woman should have been over fifty, but the one in front of him looked like she was just in her early twenties.

If it weren't for the plain clothes she wore, Xu Fan would have had a hard time confirming that she was an old nun.

"Uh, master nun, to maintain such good care at this age, that's impressive."

The atmosphere turned somewhat awkward, so Xu Fan touched his nose and broke the silence first.

However, his attempt at breaking the ice only added to the awkwardness.

It seemed that she didn't really appreciate his compliment, as a hint of anger appeared in her eyes.

Xu Fan couldn't help but wonder, I'm praising you here and you don't even appreciate it?

"Xu Fan, you got it wrong..."

At this moment, Xia Xiaodie came over.

It wasn't really Xu Fan's fault, after all, the apprentice nun hadn't made things clear.

The woman in front of them should be the little nun's senior sister.

Xia Xiaodie leaned in and whispered a reminder to Xu Fan.

"This..."

Upon hearing that, Xu Fan then remembered what the apprentice nun had said earlier.

Thinking back on his own words, he realized no wonder she was so angry.

"The master is waiting for you in the main hall."

Not a great first impression, plus her seemingly naturally cold demeanor, she reminded them bluntly and then walked out.

"Let's head over,"

Not dwelling too much on the recent hiccup, Xu Fan led Xia Xiaodie to follow her towards the main hall.

Following along the way, they soon reached the main hall of the Yuehua Nunnery.

The elder disciple of the little nun walked into the grand hall and headed straight towards an old nun in front of her.

The old nun appeared to be about forty, with her profound cultivation level maintaining her face free of any wrinkles.

Only a few strands of white hair on her head could attest to her age.

After listening to the disciple who led Xu Fan in explain for a moment, she turned her gaze towards Xu Fan and Xia Xiaodie.

"Who might you two be?"

After a brief glance, the old nun asked.

Xu Fan slightly nodded and explained, "Elder, I am a friend of Xiao Lan. I've come here because there is something I would like to ask you."

"Xiao Lan? The sister of Xiao Tianfang?"

"Yes, that's right."

Seeing Xu Fan nod in affirmation, the old nun couldn't help but squint her eyes.

"Then you must be Xu Fan, am I correct?"

"Elder, you know of me?"

Hearing her tone, which seemed to imply recognition, Xu Fan couldn't help feeling pleased; this would likely make it easier to inquire about the Bronze Box later on.

"Hehe, not just you, I'm quite familiar with your master as well."

Just as joy surfaced in his heart, the old nun's next sentence made Xu Fan's heart tighten.

When she mentioned that old immortal, she clenched her teeth, and even her otherworldly face revealed a few traces of hatred.

The aura that she exposed even made Xu Fan feel an inexplicable pressure.

"..."

Xu Fan had never heard the old immortal mention this old nun, and he wondered to himself if the old immortal had peeped on her bathing, given how much she hated him.

It wasn't an impossibility, knowing the kinds of things that old immortal was capable of.

Now looking at the old nun again, Xu Fan felt a headache coming on.

It seemed today's plan might be spoiled by the old immortal.

"Elder, what a coincidence, my master often mentions you too. He, mmm, misses you a lot."

With the origin of the Bronze Box finally in sight, Xu Fan really didn't want to give up; thus, he began to spout nonsense with his eyes wide open.

He silently prayed that the immortal hadn't offended her too gravely, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get a single word from her.

"The kind of master teaches the kind of disciple."

The old nun gave Xu Fan a cold look and said, "You and your master are both up to no good."

"Qin Er."

With that, the old nun looked over to the disciple who had led the way before.

"Disable all of this man's cultivation level for me."

With a casual order, the old nun intended to cripple Xu Fan's cultivation level. As she saw the old nun's disciple step forward without hesitation, Xia Xiaodie's eyes filled with urgency.

Since his arrival, Xu Fan had not done anything to offend her.

Just because of his master's reputation, the old nun had completely written off Xu Fan.

In this world, are there such domineering women?

"Elder, don't you think this is a bit too much?"

"Aren't you a monk?"

Although she wasn't particularly fond of Xu Fan's cheeky old master, he had once saved her life.

Xia Xiaodie didn't consider Xu Fan's master a bad person, and even less so Xu Fan himself.

Bravely, she stood up for him.

Unexpectedly, this vivacious young lady stepped forward to speak on behalf of Xu Fan.

The old nun gave Xia Xiaodie a detailed look and then said, "Young lady, monks indeed have a heart of compassion."

"My not taking action myself today is the greatest mercy I can offer him!"

"If he can withstand Qin Er's attack, I will spare him."
