Transcending Heavens: Starting with the Ancient Tomb Sect

Chapter 123: When the first step of the plan went wrong!

After a moment of reflection, everyone calmed down and composed themselves.

Envy of Yang Guo is just envy of Yang Guo; in reality, it's just a yearning for beautiful things. To be honest, it's nothing special to most people.

What everyone cares about is not outside, but inside the Ancient Tomb Sect.

Not to mention Yue Que, Xiaolongnu, Li Mochou, Lu Wushuang, and Gongsun Lüe, even Hong Lingbo is the same.

If we follow the traditional narrative of the sect, we can simply find another place to open a branch in the ancient tomb and redefine the sect's sphere of influence.

There are many difficult things in the world, but there are also many solutions.

"Oh, my junior apprentice."

Li Mochou glanced at her sister, Xiaolongnu, and suddenly frowned in confusion, saying, "During the analysis just now, I sensed a familiar feeling."

Little Dragon Girl glanced at her younger sister, Li Mochou, and replied, "Because Madam Guo is imitating Que'er's ways."

"I see." Li Mochou nodded, indicating that her doubts had been resolved.

Meanwhile, Gongsun Lü'e was silently memorizing this knowledge, preparing to take some time to write it down for future generations.

As a lady from a prominent family, she always believed that writing a diary and summarizing was a good habit.

Back in the Valley of Heartbreak, Gongsun Lü'e could only imagine the outside world through books; books were her only sustenance. Now, however, she was experiencing it firsthand, which was far more interesting.

She wanted to use her eyes as a pen to record in detail what she saw and learned.

As for the subsequent marriage between Yang Guo and Miss Guo, no one mentioned it.

After all, the fact that no one went was the best gift for Yang Guo.

Thus, having lent Yang Guo a helping hand and accelerated the progress of his ink work, the matter of Xiangyang was concluded.

"Junior brother, our next task is to track down Huo Du and see what happens to his sample of this cultivation manual?" Hong Lingbo knew that there was little need to stay here any longer, now that the matter in Xiangyang had been temporarily resolved.

When Hong Lingbo brought up the matter, Lu Wushuang and Gongsun Lü also became interested.

In essence, the real executors of Huo Du's experiment were the three sisters who were in charge.

Compared to Yue Que, Xiaolongnu and Li Mochou were more interested in the process of this matter.

Especially after witnessing the cultivation manual and the strange changes that occurred after the sect leader severely injured the other party's waist, the three women were truly captivated by the experience.

They had never seen anyone be affected to this extent by a martial art; it was to the point that a person's personality showed signs of distortion.

The thought that the main source of this martial art was the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, a unique skill from their sect, made the three women feel a little numb.

Hong Lingbo, the eldest sister, shared the same doubts as her master, Li Mochou.

"Yes, senior brother."

Gongsun Lü'e nodded vigorously. She was very interested in Huo Du's example and secretly decided to use him as a starting point to write down his related performance.

Lu Wushuang expressed her opinion with a serious and earnest expression.

"OK.

"

Seeing the eager looks in the three women's eyes, Yue Que decided on the next goal and said, "Traveling north was originally part of the plan."

Seeing that Yue Que had approved the suggestion, the three women were very happy.

Because they knew that as long as Yue Que agreed, Xiaolongnu, as the sect leader, actually didn't have that many objections.

Since Xiaolongnu and Yue Que had no objections, Li Mochou would naturally follow suit.

Compared to the three juniors, Li Mochou was more interested in a word in Yue Que's words and asked, "Junior Nephew, what kind of plan is this?"

Based on her understanding of her junior sister, Xiaolongnu, Xiaolongnu had no plans. Long-term plans were not in Xiaolongnu's considerations.

Little Dragon Girl is the type whose ideas come to her when she's in the mood.

Such impulsive people actually have a great advantage when dealing with so-called wise people. Often, they can inadvertently turn a wise person into a "mentally challenged person" with a single move.

In Li Mochou's view, the only person capable of making such a long-term plan during this period was her junior apprentice, Yue Que. After carefully analyzing her experiences and adventures, Li Mochou was almost certain that the members of the Ancient Tomb Sect were following one of Yue Que's plans.

Regardless of whether that knowledge was truly derived from the Quanzhen School's scriptures, in Li Mochou's view, it already possessed the kind of infallible strategy that her niece Gongsun Lü'e had initially imagined in Zhuge Liang.

"Forehead----"

Yue Que was taken aback by his master's question, and then looked at Xiaolongnu, only to see that Long'er was also full of curiosity.

Looking at Hong Lingbo, Lu Wushuang, and Gongsun Lüe, the three women were also in high spirits.

After a moment's thought, Yue Que felt that since the situation had come to this point, there was no problem in talking about the initial preparations.

So, under everyone's expectant gaze, Yue Que briefly and slowly recounted some of the arrangements he had made out of boredom while studying the Daoist Canon under his Uncle Yin Zhiping at the Quanzhen Sect, after deleting a portion of the content.

Yue Que's plan is as follows—

Normal Plan 1: Study at Quanzhen Sect → Travel outside Quanzhen Sect → Head north to Shaolin Temple → Copy scriptures to seize the Nine Yang Manual (An unofficial plan; if you really can't stand it anymore, you can save the world).

Normal Plan 2: Study at Quanzhen Sect → Enter the Ancient Tomb to seize the Nine Yin Manual → Leave the Ancient Tomb to travel the world and hone your martial arts skills → Go to Shaolin → Plan the Nine Yang Manual → Try every means to find other unique martial arts (such as the ruins of the Xiaoyao Sect) → Create your own martial arts → Dominate the world → Seek the opportunity to break through the void.

Yue Que had planned his life plan very well back then.

This is the goal a normal time traveler should have: to find a chivalrous woman and fall in love along the way.

Then Yue Que thought about it for himself, especially after meeting Yang Guo, and decided to choose the second plan from the two options.

After all, the ancient tomb was located inside the Quanzhen Sect, so it seemed like a shortcut. To avoid any problems, Yue Que even brought his junior brother Yang Guo along, deciding to try and share in the protagonist's luck.

And then—and that was it.

Xiaolongnu's casual strike completely halted Yue Que's plan, much like a program that runs perfectly fine after booting up, but then encounters a problem when running it next—the machine is misconfigured, resulting in a huge bug.

Moreover, this huge bug was related to his own life and death. Left with no other choice, Yue Que could only try to force the program to run, along with the bug.

In the end, the program ran with the bugs, but the situation has become what it is now.

This bug is that the Little Dragon Girl "tricked" Yue Que.

Yue Que did not go into details, but he only gave a brief introduction, which everyone understood in a general way.

Especially Li Mochou, the Red Serpent Fairy.

"————"

She looked at Yue Que, then at her junior sister, then back at Yue Que, and finally her gaze settled on her junior sister, Xiaolongnu. For a moment, she didn't know how to describe the situation.

She roughly understood why Yue Que had been able to break down when Zhou Botong recited the "Cantongqi" back in the Jian family.

At that time, the junior sister in the ancient tomb had probably been practicing the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra for quite some time and was already showing symptoms of qi deviation.

If it weren't for the appearance of his junior apprentice Yue Que, the normal choice would have been his junior apprentice Yang Guo.

Unfortunately, my nephew Yue Que possessed twelve years of Quanzhen internal energy cultivation at that time.

Even if Yang Guo, the junior disciple, possessed a unique fragrance, it was not enough to counteract the allure of twelve years of Quanzhen internal energy.

"Good luck!"

In the end, Li Mochou sighed to her junior sister Xiaolongnu, saying that it was not only her junior sister's luck that this disciple was able to enter the Ancient Tomb, but also the luck of the Ancient Tomb Sect.

It was truly the blessing of the Ancestral Master that brought the light of hope to the Tomb of the Living Dead from among Wang Chongyang's disciples and descendants.

After saying that, Li Mochou reached out and patted Yue Que's shoulder reassuringly, and said with a smile, "Nephew, things aren't so bad for you right now, are they?"

All the women in the entire tomb revolve around you, even Yang Guo, as one of the only two male disciples, is no exception.

Then Li Mochou got up and walked towards her horse.

Snapped!

Next to pat Yue Que on the shoulder was Hong Lingbo, a treasure of the ancient tomb. She carried two swords on her back and had an unusually serious expression as she suppressed a smile and offered comfort to her junior brother as a senior sister.

Yue Que rolled his eyes: "You better shut up, or I'll beat you up."

Hong Lingbo: 0 (∩—∩) 0!

Then she went to fetch her horse.

Snapped!

Lu Wushuang, carrying the Xuan Tie Heavy Sword, stepped forward to offer comfort to her senior brother as his junior sister. Although she didn't know where her senior brother had heard the rumors from, she was certain he had been greatly deceived.

In her view, with Li Mochou, the Red Serpent Fairy, as an example, how much better could Xiaolongnu, who was Li Mochou's junior sister, be?

Yue Que rolled his eyes again: "Do you still want your leg treated?"

"I felt relieved after learning that it was treatable, and besides, now isn't the right time, is it?"

It takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone, and any treatment would involve working on the bone itself. Lu Wushuang thought that now was the time to focus on becoming stronger, and she didn't have the mood to treat her leg for the time being.

Once he relaxed, Lu Wushuang felt that his chances of getting revenge would become smaller and smaller.

After saying that, Lu Wushuang ignored Yue Que and turned around to walk to his mount, limping and mounting it.

Snapped!

Yue Que watched as his junior sister Gongsun Lü'e walked towards him. Seeing her raised right hand, Yue Que did not avoid her, nor did he exclude his junior sister. He simply waited for her in the same spot.

After Gongsun Lü'e patted him on the shoulder, before Yue Que could speak, Gongsun Lü'e said in a low voice with a smile, "Senior Brother Yue, you must have read too many books while you were studying at the Quanzhen Sect."

The implication was that it was the same as when she, Gongsun Lü'e, was in the Valley of Heartbreak.

The similarities between her senior brother and her junior brother made her even happier.

After winking at Yue Que, Gongsun Lü'e turned around and ran towards her horse, mounting it with remarkable agility.

Snapped!

Another gesture of patting someone on the shoulder.

"?"

Yue Que turned around and saw the Divine Eagle standing behind him, its wings drooping over him.

'

Yue Que rolled his eyes at the Condor Heroes, annoyed, and said, "Brother Condor, you'll have to walk the rest of the way yourself."

Chirp?

The Divine Eagle tilted its head.

Yue Que turned and walked towards his mount. After mounting, he gently pulled on the reins and came to Xiaolongnu's side.

Looking down, he saw Little Dragon Girl leading a horse, not mounting it, just standing there looking at him.

"Come here, Long'er!"

Seeing this, Yue Que understood what Xiaolongnu was thinking, so he held the reins in one hand and reached out the other hand to invite her.

With a pull and a tug, Xiaolongnu's figure flipped gracefully, her skirt fluttering like a spinning snow lotus, and she landed in Yue Que's arms.

"Let's go, northwards!"

"Destination—Central Plains, Shaolin Temple."

"Giddy up!" X6.
