My enemies became my companions

Chapter 557 Great Yin has a clever plan

After that night, the White Lotus Sect and Longhu Mountain were at peace for the time being. Although they had complaints among themselves and held the idea that good and evil could not coexist, everyone was sensible and knew that if they wanted to achieve their goals in this strange place, they had to cooperate first.

The people of the White Lotus Sect were holding torches, and scattered sparks were passing by the bottom of the theater. Zhao Hun glanced at them a few times.

Everybody came for the tower, but the White Lotus's idea of ​​the so-called vacuum hometown was so illusory, like a mirage that would shatter at the touch of a finger. They were just a group of idiots dreaming. Zhao Hu had seen the place, and although it was beautiful, it was definitely not the vacuum hometown that the White Lotus talked about.

Having said that, these fools probably don't even know what "true emptiness" means. In addition to practicing Taoism, the first disciple of Longhu Mountain often studied scriptures of various religions. The teachings of the White Lotus Sect are the simplest, even inferior, and are almost entirely taken from the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism. The "true emptiness" they speak of is "True Suchness", which is neither real nor false, neither true nor false, neither existing nor non-existing... Unmoved, in short, it means seeing through the vanity of the world and understanding that the life in this world is originally a waste of time.

Since it is nothing, how can the so-called "vacuum hometown" really exist? It is nothing.

Thinking that these White Lotus sect members were looking for something that didn't exist at all, Zhao Hun let out an imperceptible sneer, and his heart was slightly stirred. Finally, he sighed softly, thinking that he was not pure enough after all, and actually made fun of other people's situations.

He silently recited a few scriptures, and saw the White Lotus Sect members walking away at the intersection with torches. He paused, as if he had realized something.
The person has disappeared from sight. He is an extraordinary person and an extraordinary matter. Whether he makes fun of it or feels sorry for it, why do he still have so many thoughts about him? Zhao Xuan said to himself, "I am not letting things take their own course."

"Master Zhaoxun is too modest."

A voice was heard suddenly. Zhao Hun glanced sideways and saw that it was none other than Chen Yi.

Zhao Hun smiled, not feeling embarrassed, and said, "Brother Chen, you are too kind. You saw my mood swings at a glance. You have a very keen heart of Taoism."

Originally, Chen Yi had not taken the first disciple of the Heavenly Master of Mount Longhu very seriously. He thought highly of him, but not too highly of him. But just now, when he accidentally glanced at him, he noticed that his mood changed very quickly, and he was brought back on track after a little fluctuation. He was a little surprised.

Although he is not as good as Zen while walking or sitting, he is not far off. This person truly has the talent of a celestial master.

"It's not that I'm very sensitive. I just met so many Taoists that I can feel it a little bit. Practice makes perfect." Chen Yi replied.

"You don't seem to consider yourself a Taoist priest."

“I just act like myself.”

Zhao Xun said to himself, "As expected."

Many warriors would have similar answers, feeling that they are frank and straightforward, showing their true selves. However, if one were to look into the details of what the so-called "self" is, they would be hesitant and unable to put it into words, and could only speak vaguely. It is so easy to say "I just treat myself" verbally, but the real difficulty is to realize what one really is.

Zhao Hun was about to make a witty remark when he accidentally caught Chen Yi's eyes. He was startled because he saw a strong self-confidence in his eyes... an absolute belief in himself, which seemed to say silently: He will not die at all.

Zhao Hu narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "Brother Chen's realm is so deep. At such a young age, he has reached the realm of enlightenment. If there is a Taoist like you in Longhu Mountain..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Yi smiled and said, "Of course, smoke is coming out of your ancestors' graves."

Zhao Hun smiled freely and carefreely, neither angry nor annoyed, but nodded slightly.

Chen Yi narrowed his eyes slightly. This chief disciple of Mount Longhu was no pushover after all. His level of spiritual cultivation was probably many levels higher than that of his own Great Yin family. He was already on par with Lu Ying. If they became his enemy, it would become a serious threat over time.

But now is not the time to take action.

Chen Yi came here to inquire about the progress, so he asked, "Have you found the tower?"

"We have determined the location in the past few days and are slowly exploring. We are very close now. It is just a matter of time before we find the Sword of Demon Slayer in Longhu Mountain. The White Lotus Sect may be able to find Zhenkong's hometown. Speaking of which," Zhao Hu changed the subject and asked, "Why do you want to find that tower, Brother Chen?"

"Curious, isn't it?"

"Haha, Brother Chen is really good at joking, but this is a life-threatening journey. If you don't have a purpose, you don't have to sacrifice your life."

This was almost an open test. Zhao Hun looked extremely frank, making people want to tell him all his intentions.

"because……"

Zhaoxun smiled.

The next moment after hearing the answer,
His face stiffened slightly.

Chen Yi said sincerely, "Because I don't want you to find the Evil-Slaying Sword."

...............

Seeing Chen Yi coming back from afar, Yin Weiying felt suspicious. If he went there to test the people from the White Lotus Sect and Longhu Mountain and find out the secrets here, then he had gone there too many times.

Could it be that he has a new love...

Yin Weiying knew how lustful Chen Yi was. If he really liked someone, he would definitely be obsessed with her. Although he didn't say it, he was thinking about her in his heart, just like he was thinking about her as the eldest lady. The two of them were in love in Shantong and Chengli, and he rarely mentioned Xiao Yin. He must have missed her more than Yin Tingxue.

Thinking of this, she suddenly thought again, and he clearly knew Yin Tingxue before her, but now he likes her more than Yin Tingxue, it seems that he is also a little fickle.

Yin Weiying couldn't help muttering: Could it be that he really has a crush on one of those Taoists?

Seeing Chen Yi approaching from afar with a warm smile, Yin Weiying's heart darkened.
If you didn't have a new love, why would you linger there every day?

Through Donggong Ruoshu, Yin Weiying looked Chen Yi up and down. Chen Yi was too vigilant. If he asked proactively, he would not get any result at all. Therefore, he could only infer little by little through clues. However, if the inference was successful, it would be fine. If the inference was wrong, even a slight mistake would lead to a huge error.

But before they met again, she had no idea what Chen Yi had experienced.

Chen Yi raised his head and saw Donggong Ruoshu waiting for him like a little wife. He smiled and said, "Why are you waiting here?"

Yin Weiying came back to his senses and asked, "Shouldn't we wait here?" Her confused look made it easy for people to let down their guard, and Chen Yi was no exception. Moreover, for so many days, this unknown existence showed no signs of sudden outbreak.

Before Chen Yi could organize his words, Donggong Ruoshu wrinkled his nose and said aggrievedly: "They told me to wait for you, otherwise they can't be with you."

"They told you to wait, and you waited?"

"Yes, we are husband and wife."

"Acting cute." Chen Yi kept tapping her head.

Yin Weiying was stunned for a moment, and Donggong Ruoshu was also stunned, as if they did not expect his behavior to be so intimate.

It was just like when Patriarch Bodhi knocked three times, Sun Wukong had an epiphany.

The nun paused for a long time, and figured out something from this. It seems that their relationship... has actually become closer without them realizing it...

It would be impossible to tell whether he really had a new love by asking directly, and blindly guessing like this was not a solution either. She might misunderstand him again like before. With the experience of catching an adulterer before, Yin Weiying thought about it for a while and suddenly had a bold idea.

If that’s the case, why doesn’t she…test it herself?
Anyway, although this East Palace girl is not as pretty as herself, she is quite capable in the right ways, and his mind is easy to predict. She always has it in her hands and will take the initiative to test him to see if he is really that easy to change his mind.

If he really changes his mind, I will give him a warning. If he still refuses to change his mind, I will "die" in front of him and escape, so that he will know what it means to be hurt by love.

Why use a knife to kill someone? When Yin Weiying thought of this, his thoughts surged like the tide and he secretly sighed at the cleverness of this plan.

Chen Yi was wondering if he had hit some switch, causing the unknown existence to awaken its memory. With his brows furrowed in alertness, his hand slowly moved downwards.

Thinking of this, she suddenly moved closer and seemed to touch him softly through the clothes, then she shrank back slightly, as if she hadn't touched him again.

Chen Yi was stunned.

"Chen Yi, they all said that we weren't close enough, and they kept bothering me, saying things like it's hard for a girl to chase a boy..."

"……so?"

Before he could finish his words, she silently moved closer to him, her chest piled on top of him.

"so,"

She looked shy and asked cautiously:

"Can I call you...husband?"

Chen Yi swallowed his saliva without making any expression.

My heart suddenly started beating hard, and it was really hard to bear.

For some reason, he suddenly felt a little sorry for Yin Weiying...

...............

"Found it! Found the tower!"

When the news was reported to the theater, the whole building became excited and dust fell from the beams.

After many days of searching, they finally determined the location of the tower. How could they not be excited? For a moment, both the White Lotus Sect and the Taoists were extremely surprised, and they even looked at each other with a lot more favorability.

The leaders of the two sides congratulated each other without any grudges.

However, Fang Fang turned the corner and Zi Cihang pushed open the door deep inside. This room was full of restrictions and was the place where several saints secretly discussed countermeasures.

Zi Cihang paced a few steps before slowly speaking, "These idiots seem determined to get us. Unfortunately, we are also determined to get us. If we really get in, we will definitely have a falling out. You all should be prepared."

"Shouldn't we break through the tower first? And...we need to join forces to kill Captain Chen."

"When did I say I won't kill them? After getting rid of Chen Yi, we'll find a way to get rid of them as well." Zi Cihang said slowly, "These tight-lipped but treacherous people, if we don't take action first, they will definitely do it. Think about how Longhu Mountain prospered and suppressed the demons from all directions. Isn't it just pretending to be nice in the beginning and then destroying the mountains and temples later?"

Several saints nodded, except Qing Lianzi who was still hesitant.

Zi Cihang then asked, "Brother Qing Wu, what do you think?"

Qing Lianzi hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't think too much. Is this Captain Chen...really a fish on the chopping board? This guy is still quite capable."

"Oh, no matter how much he weighs,"

Zi Cihang smiled coldly.

"Once you are on the chopping block, everyone is fish."

Chen Yi on the side nodded, and unlike Zi Cihang, he gave a heartwarming smile.
