Chapter 73. Are you him?
Qiu Yuehan descended the mountain under the cover of night.

The moon reflects the starry sky, illuminating the night.

The Dao Fa Sect, one of the Nine Gates and Twelve Palaces, is the strongest sect in the entire White Domain, but it is also the smallest sect among the Nine Gates and Twelve Palaces.

Most major sects, like Miaoyu Palace, have subordinate branches, but the Dao Fa Men sect does not. In addition, the Dao Fa Men sect has very few members.

The Taoist school only has three mountain peaks, including the one connected to Tianshan.

The mountain is equipped with a magic array that separates immortals from mortals, while at the foot of the mountain lies a mortal dynasty. On many occasions, disciples of the Daoist sects would conceal their identities and come to the dynasty to experience the mortal world.

This is in accordance with the current rules of the Taoist sect—no one in the Taoist sect should regard themselves as immortals, nor should they forget that they are human.

This law, which appears to be protecting mortals and maintaining the order between immortals and mortals, is actually far more complex than that.

Without entering the Jade Light and illuminating the stars, cultivators will always be threatened by the Desire Demon.

However, if a practitioner regularly and truly lowers their status to integrate into the lives of ordinary people, experience birth, aging, sickness and death, see through the illusions of the world and let go of attachments, the possibility of being corrupted by desires is greatly reduced.

This shows that the Taoist method of releasing desires follows the path of worldly life.

Qiu Yuehan easily passed through the Daoist formation and soon arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Following the magic runes, she found an inn.

The lights were on inside.

Inhale, exhale, suppressing her emotions, and prepare to push open the door.

The door isn't closed?

"Let me take a good look at you, don't move."

Qiu Yuehan stopped opening the door and peered through the crack. She saw a silver-haired girl standing with her back to the door in front of the old monster. The old monster leaned down and placed his hands on the girl's soft shoulders, as if he were kissing her.

broken!

After the junior sister, even the junior master of Cihang Palace is going to suffer a terrible fate!
Qiu Yuehan was terrified.

She had long heard that the young master of Cihang Palace was a detached and indifferent person. Now, was this detached and indifferent Bodhisattva going to be trained into an obedient puppet?

"That's not right. Have you been like this since birth?"

Lu Changyuan released the girl's shoulder.

Su Youwan picked up the white cloth again, covered her eyes, and said softly, "No, it's probably because I decided to cultivate the Heavenly Dao of Destiny that it became like this."

The two were talking about the girl's eyes.

Red eyes are not a good omen, especially in the world of cultivation.

Most of the time, red eyes represent lust and demonic possession. When Xia Lianxue was consumed by lust, her eyes were bloodshot. But the silver-haired girl in front of me didn't look lustful at all.

Lu Changyuan had not noticed the slightest hint of lustful aura about Su Youwan.

This is strange.

"So Youwan has to wear a white cloth all the time, otherwise she'll scare people. Young Master Lu, can't you see what the problem is?"

The entire Cihang Palace investigated this matter, but they couldn't figure out what was going on.

Lu Changyuan shook his head, then squinted.

He had never seen such a situation before.

"Do you think it's possible that it's simply a matter of your blood rushing to your eyes, causing them to turn red?"

If we can't see the problem from the perspective of "law" in the long run, then let's look at it from the perspective of the mortal world.

Su Youwan said, "The palace has consulted people from the Dan Sect, and they said there are no problems."

Lu Changyuan nodded and said firmly, "Then let's leave it alone, just to avoid causing any problems."

The saying goes, "If a person can move normally, don't treat them recklessly. What if they get cured but die? That would be the end of them." After a pause, Lu Changyuan waved his hand, opened the door, and Qiu Yuehan staggered in.

Why didn't you knock when you came?

Qiu Yuehan immediately felt a prickling sensation on her back. After thinking for a while, she called out, "Master."

She just suddenly had an idea.

Would Lu Changyuan be safe if she were simply given even a little bit of moral constraint?
Before Lu Changyuan could speak, the Third Princess turned around, looked Qiu Yuehan up and down, and then said emotionlessly, "You...like this ambiance? Before, Miss Xia was raising a daughter; now she's raising a disciple."

"Go away, go away, go somewhere else."

Lu Changyuan spoke.

Su Youwan curled her lips and picked up her birdcage: "I'm going to rest in the next room. Young Master Lu, please don't let Youwan hear anything she shouldn't hear. Youwan is a nun and needs to cultivate herself."

The silver-haired girl smiled and walked out.

Lu Changyuan then turned to look at Qiu Yuehan. The aloof fairy in the white dress stood straight. Her hair was not tied up, so her smooth, long black hair draped over her tall back and down to her slender waist. Her tall legs looked like deadly knives in the candlelight, making people's hearts tremble.

Qiu Yuehan spoke first: "Junior sister is very worried about you."

Lu Changyuan said calmly, "Why are you suddenly calling me Master?"

"The sect leader of the Taoist sect said I am the junior sister."

Qiu Yuehan gritted her teeth: "I also received your inheritance, so it's not a problem for me to call you Master. Besides, I still have the demonic runes on my shoulders!"

Lu Changyuan smiled faintly: "Without kowtowing, you can't be considered an apprentice. At most, you're just a nominal one. By the way, do you really not need me to remove the demonic runes for you? You've already mastered the basics of the cultivation method, so you can continue practicing on your own."

"do not want!"

Qiu Yuehan suddenly felt rebellious.

She simply couldn't resist the benefits that the magic runes brought.

Think about it, what did she gain? Mental cultivation techniques, sword skills, and worldly desires?

How could she let go of such a divine connection?
Qiu Yuehan admitted that she was greedy. At worst, she could become the most obedient sword in Lu Changyuan's hands when she achieved mastery of her cultivation. Wouldn't that be enough as a way of repaying him?
A voice sounded behind her: "You're better than I was back then at facing your desires head-on."

The Moon Fairy turned around and found a figure in red standing at the door.

Qiu Yuehan was stunned for a moment, her cheeks flushing slightly again, while Jiang Jiayi simply said, "I'm very surprised. If I hadn't been with you, how could you have come down the mountain so easily? Do you really think that the Daoist sect allows free movement?"

Lu Changyuan handed a letter to Qiu Yuehan: "Please pass this letter on to your junior sister. I will not be joining the Daoist sect for the time being."

People will die if they go in.

But I dare not go.

Jiang Jiayi walked up to Lu Changyuan and gently asked, "Are you the sect leader?"

Five hundred years after the Taoist Chang'an entered Yaoguang, which is a thousand years ago, he held a grand ceremony to accept disciples.

Jiang Jiayi and the current head of the Daoist sect were admitted to the sect at this disciple-acceptance ceremony. At that time, Chang'an Daoist had lost his face and emotions, and wore a platinum mask all day long. Few people in the world knew his true face.

Even Jiang Jiayi had only seen the true face of the Taoist priest of Chang'an once; it was a face covered in knife scars that looked extremely terrifying.

But it was that face that Jiang Jiayi remembered for many years.

She looked at Lu Changyuan and thought that if she didn't have the scar and was younger, she would probably look like this.

"I want to hear a definite answer: Are you him?"

Jiang Jiayi remembered many things.

The apprenticeship ceremony assesses character. She had the best talent and was born with a sword physique. She was originally a shoo-in to become the only true disciple of Chang'an Daoist, but unfortunately she lost to the Daoist sect leader and eventually became the disciple of another peak master.
