It seemed they were afraid of dampening Lin Beichen's enthusiasm later.

Zhao Si still said something to comfort him.

This shows that Zhao Si is still very kind.

The reason he subconsciously rejected Lin Beichen's question was mainly because he felt it was impossible. If there were problems with the dragon vein, wouldn't so many people in Longhu Mountain know about it? The possibility of someone tampering with it right under their noses was extremely small.

If someone could actually do that.

That would be tantamount to completely humiliating Longhu Mountain.

Therefore, Zhao Si was unwilling to admit that such a thing could happen.

"Well, I won't worry about it too much. I just have this feeling. If nothing's wrong, that would be best." Lin Beichen gave Zhao Si a friendly smile.

He knew very well that he wasn't joking.

With my own abilities, can't I tell if there's a problem with this dragon vein?

There's definitely something wrong here; the dragon vein's fortune seems very weak.

"What did you say? An outsider said there was a problem with the dragon vein of Longhu Mountain, so you went to check the dragon vein of Longhu Mountain. What you did is a slap in our face and a disgrace to us."

Some people disagreed with this decision.

"But that young man also helped us a lot."

“I don’t think that young man is unreasonable. He must have a reason for saying that,” Tian Can and the other two quickly defended Lin Beichen, since they had agreed to the matter.

Even if Zhao Si disagreed at first.

But having come this far, he had no choice but to side with Lin Beichen, even if he disagreed.

"Yes, I believe this young man must have noticed something."

"It's okay even if it's a misunderstanding."

"Could this young man be deliberately insulting our Longhu Mountain? He's definitely one of us."

Di Que also said the same thing.

"Heh, a stranger's casual remark has caused you all to react like this."

“I find it disgusting,” a female Taoist priest in a robe suddenly said, her words more severe than the others, even somewhat insulting.

This shows absolutely no consideration for Lin Beichen.

"Li Mingyue, you'd better tone it down."

"You can't go too far in anything. Your temperament isn't good."

Zhang Wuqing rebuked Li Mingyue. He naturally agreed with some of what Li Mingyue said, but he disagreed with what the other party did. Doing so really left his brother no room for maneuver.

In any case, this young man probably meant no harm.

"Senior brother, why are you siding with outsiders?"

Li Mingyue looked at Zhang Wuqing with a wronged expression.

Li Mingyue wore a loose white Taoist robe, but it still couldn't hide her figure.

A woman of her caliber would naturally attract the admiration of many Taoist priests! And these Taoist priests are men, too.

Moreover, cultivating Taoism is not the same as becoming a monk.

It is also possible to marry and have children while practicing Taoism.

In Longhu Mountain, many people are pursuing the Dawn Moon.

Zhang Wuqing is the current senior disciple of Longhu Mountain, and Li Mingyue often follows him around.

Many people consider Zhang Wuqing and Li Mingyue to be a perfect couple.

However, Zhang Wuqing only had feelings for Li Mingyue as if she were his junior sister.

He had no romantic feelings for Li Mingyue. His realm had reached a height that ordinary people could not reach. Ordinary women had no meaning for Zhang Wuqing.

He was pursuing a marriage ordained by fate.

Perhaps Li Mingyue is indeed very beautiful.

She was indeed a very outstanding Taoist nun.

But Zhang Wuqing had calculated for himself that there was no possibility between him and Li Mingyue.

The two of them lived in the south and the north respectively, making it impossible for them to be together. They even had rather ominous divination results, which he didn't understand, but he believed in divination.

He believed his own methods were infallible.

"Dawn Moon? Heh."

Lin Beichen revealed a meaningful smile.

Then he said to Yu Feng beside him.

"Can you tell if Li Mingyue is any different from the others?"

He wanted to test Yu Feng's eyesight.

Upon hearing Lin Beichen's words, Yu Feng immediately began to scrutinize Li Mingyue from head to toe.

If Brother Lin Beichen has said so, then there must be something wrong with this.

But after looking around, he didn't find anything wrong.

Aside from having a good figure and being good-looking, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with her.

Could it be that my older brother misread it?
Or perhaps my eyesight is just too poor. But what exactly is wrong with Li Mingyue?

Just as Yu Feng was deep in thought, a slightly surprised voice came from behind him.

The one speaking was Wang Baozi, who was standing next to Yu Feng.

"That can't be right, can it?"

"Isn't she a Taoist nun from Longhu Mountain? Could it be... no, no, I must be seeing things."

When Wang Baozi realized this, he was completely stunned.

With his discerning eye honed from browsing countless works of art, he could tell at a glance that Li Mingyue was not Chinese. There were differences between Chinese and Japanese people, especially between the women of the two countries.

The gap between them is obvious.

Of course, not everyone can notice such subtle details. Unless you're a seasoned pro who frequents flower gardens, it's really difficult to spot this.

However, there are also special cases like Wang Baozi's.

He didn't have much contact with people from Japan.

But he often watched similar videos online, and over time, he developed a kind of intuition.

He can tell whether someone is from the island nation just by looking at them.

"What did you find out, kid? Don't make such a fuss."

Yu Feng also turned his gaze to Wang Baozi.

He was actually a little resentful.

If even he couldn't see it, what could Wang Baozi possibly see?

The fact that the other person noticed something he hadn't meant that he was indirectly implying that he was inferior to him. Yu Feng really didn't want to admit this; he felt it was too embarrassing.

"Hmm, these two shouldn't be from our Taoist sect, right?"

"If we're going to check out the dragon veins, it seems like the two of them aren't really suitable to come with us."

Zhang Wuqing's junior brother, Zhang Wupo, said the following.

No one else present asked such a question, because they knew that the two were definitely not members of the Daoist sect. Regardless, they had all come with Lin Beichen to pay their respects.

You should always treat guests with basic courtesy.

Moreover, the fact that they were following Lin Beichen was enough to prove that their identities were legitimate.

As long as they are healthy, what's wrong with going to check the dragon vein together?
It doesn't really matter.

But wouldn't Zhang Wupo's words make Lin Beichen and his group lose face?
Of course, he said that because he had feelings for Li Mingyue.

After saying this, he subconsciously looked at Li Mingyue beside him, and Li Mingyue gave him an encouraging look at just the right moment, which made him very excited.

"Everyone, what do you think of what I said?"

“This fellow Daoist can come with us, but his two friends should stay here and rest. It’s for their own good. Knowing too much about certain things only does them harm. Knowing less will allow them to live happier lives.” Zhang Wupo was talking nonsense without batting an eye.

He was clearly trying to make things difficult for Lin Beichen and his group.

“Zhang Wupo is right. Those two outsiders have no right to go to the place where the dragon vein of our Longhu Mountain is located.” Li Mingyue immediately echoed, and the other Taoist priests also expressed their agreement.

Most of the Taoist priests doted on Li Mingyue.

They even regretted not saying it sooner.

Such a good opportunity was given to Zhang Wupo for nothing.

This is really bad. It's like giving their competitors an extra advantage.

"Hehe, there's no need for that."

At this moment, Tian Can stepped forward.

Di Que also stepped forward without hesitation, and the two of them warmly welcomed Lin Beichen's arrival.

They also knew that Lin Beichen had come because of the two of them.

It was truly embarrassing for them that they couldn't properly entertain their guests.

Needless to say, how could the two of them not see through Li Mingyue and the others' deliberate attempt to make things difficult for Lin Beichen? Tiancan and Dique were very puzzled as to why these fellow practitioners would make things so difficult for Lin Beichen.

It seems to have started when Li Mingyue began to speak.

Li Mingyue seemed to harbor great hostility towards Lin Beichen.

What's going on? Lin Beichen is also a very handsome man.

Moreover, he didn't do anything excessive to Li Mingyue.

The two had never met before; this was their first encounter.

"Lin Beichen is a friend I invited, and his friends are also my friends. I, Tian Can, can vouch for them. If anything goes wrong, I'll pay with my life." Tian Can spoke resolutely.

If we don't make things definitively clear, these people might keep pestering us.

Di Que then stated his own position.

He and Tiancan are on the same side.

Seeing this, Lin Beichen nodded with satisfaction.

These two truly possess the demeanor of masters of the Taoist school, and it was worthwhile for him to personally make the trip for them.

These are two friends worth making.

Yu Feng was still a bit confused; at first, he didn't understand what was going on.

He couldn't see the problem with Li Mingyue, but even if he couldn't see it, he knew that Li Mingyue had a problem; this woman had been targeting them from the very beginning.

There is definitely something wrong with this.

“Wang Baozi, tell me, what exactly is the problem?”

Yu Feng quietly asked Wang Baozi a question.

He really wanted to know where exactly Li Mingyue's problem lay.

How did Wang Baozi figure out Li Mingyue's problem?

Why couldn't he find the problem? Was there something wrong with his intelligence? Yu Feng absolutely refused to admit it; he didn't believe he had any flaws. There must be something he hadn't noticed; he just needed to point it out.

"Didn't you realize? Li Mingyue is clearly not Chinese."

"Based on my years of experience, I can tell that she is definitely from Japan. This explains everything. That's why she has been making things difficult for Daoist Lin Beichen."

Wang Baozi said to Yu Feng with great confidence.

"What?! She's actually from Japan! Good heavens, the Taoist nun from Longhu Mountain is actually a well-off Japanese." Yu Feng was completely stunned; this news shocked him.

He never expected that Li Mingyue was actually from an island nation.

It's outrageous fucking open the door to outrageous, outrageous home.

These Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain are all bewitched.

How could they treat someone from an island nation like this? It turns out the real problem lies within their own ranks.

"If even people from Japan can infiltrate Longhu Mountain, no wonder they dare to set up such a large-scale operation." Yu Feng wasn't familiar with the Taoist system, but he knew about Longhu Mountain's influence.

Even a mountain as large as Longhu Mountain can have a traitor within it.

It's easy to imagine how serious the infiltration by Japan is.

"But how did you figure out that Li Mingyue was from the Sakura Kingdom? Why couldn't I see any flaws in her? Do you have some kind of trick? Why don't you tell me?"

Yu Feng was very curious.

He was curious how Wang Baozi figured it out.

There must be a trick to it.

It's okay if I didn't notice it this time, I'll definitely notice it next time.

This was Yu Feng's inner thought, but what skills did Wang Baozi have?
He smiled and said meaningfully to Yu Feng, "Nothing more than familiarity."

There's no special skill involved; it's just a matter of seeing it a lot before you naturally learn. Of course, Wang Baozi knew that the Daoist Lin Beichen beside him wasn't the same kind of person. He definitely didn't discern Li Mingyue's identity based on experience like he did.

If I guessed correctly.

This Taoist priest must have calculated it.

Wang Baozi had prepared these excuses for Lin Beichen.

In fact, Lin Beichen did indeed discern this through divination and aura.

Li Mingyue possessed an aura unlike that of other Taoist priests, and through physiognomy, Lin Beichen could also clearly see that she was very different from other Chinese people.

Logically speaking, these other Taoist priests should all have some knowledge of physiognomy.

However, they were completely unaware that Li Mingyue's identity was unusual.

Is there some other hidden story?
Or perhaps she used some covert methods.

However, the method of concealment wouldn't be very effective against me.

"Should we just reveal her identity now? That would be more straightforward," Wang Baozi tentatively asked Lin Beichen. He felt there was no need to hide anything anymore; if they just laid things out openly, others would understand.

Ultimately, he was still too young.

Neither Lin Beichen nor Yu Feng agreed with what Wang Baozi said.

"Let's not alert them for now. If there's a problem with the dragon vein, it's definitely not just this woman's fault. There might be other Japanese spies hiding in Longhu Mountain."

Yu Feng offered a reminder.

He had naturally thought of that.

At the same time, he felt that he had finally turned the tables.

I didn't realize what was wrong with Li Mingyue just now.

However, when it comes to decision-making, my own brain is still better than Wang Baozi's.

"exactly."

Lin Beichen nodded, agreeing with Yu Feng's point of view.

Upon hearing this, Wang Baozi also felt that it made a lot of sense.

In this respect, I am indeed not as far-sighted as these two.

However, he didn't feel that he was particularly ashamed.

Compared to these two, I am nothing more than a dispensable nobody.

Of course, it was precisely this insignificant character who hastened the exposure of the Sakura Kingdom's conspiracy. At this very moment, the Sakura Kingdom's assassin, Shiranui, had already arrived on Chinese soil.

His target was Wang Baozi.

"That's strange, why didn't this person go home?" Shiranui wondered.

He didn't understand why the situation was different from the intelligence.

According to the intelligence report, Shiranui should have been home resting by now. (End of Chapter)
