Martial Arts Crossover: Infiltrating a Girls' Chat Group at the Start

Page 347

Looking at Lin Zhu, Su Ru greeted him politely, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Lin."

"Greetings, Senior Su." Lin Zhu returned the greeting.

"Fellow Daoist, you truly have a beautiful appearance. If it weren't for the pure Yang energy emanating from you, I would have thought you were a woman."

Su Ru smiled generously, her eyes revealing appreciation, like an elder looking at a younger person.

She had lived for several hundred years and even got married, so she had experienced more than Shuiyue and was less likely to be tempted by Linzhu's appearance.

Chapter 422 The Evil Soul-Devouring Staff

However, this may not be the case if you spend a lot of time together.

Lin Zhu is still very pleasing to the eye and has a very approachable feel.

This time, it's a release of personal charm from the inside out; even if it's not love at first sight, it can develop into affection over time.

"You flatter me, senior."

Lin Zhu modestly replied.

Tian Ling'er stared intently at Lin Zhu, finding him increasingly handsome, and her heart began to pound.

Seeing that this wouldn't do, Su Ru said to Lin Zhu, "Fellow Daoist Lin, my daughter and I will take our leave now."

Lin Zhu bowed again to see the two off.

"Take care, Master's wife!"

Zhang Xiaofan and Song Daren bowed deeply.

Tian Ling'er turned to look at the big dumpling in Lin Zhu's arms, her face full of reluctance.

I just don't know if it's the bear that I can't bear to part with or the people.

Watching this scene from afar, Qi Hao felt a huge weight lifted from his heart.

Then he smiled with relief and turned to go to where the disciples of Dragon Head Peak were.

How could he not understand Tian Ling'er's feelings?

Choosing to let go is better for both yourself and Tian Ling'er.

Around noon, Lin Zhu and Zhang Xiaofan were having lunch in their dormitory at Dazhu Peak.

"Xiao Fan, you had been trying to learn the Taiji Xuanqing Dao for five years but failed. I never expected that you would break through four realms in just one year. You are amazing."

Du Bishu praised Zhang Xiaofan highly, "You even defeated Chu Yuhong from Feng Hui Peak today. Senior brother, I admire you."

Zhang Xiaofan smiled faintly, not caring too much; he had something on his mind.

Song Daren, having lived a long time, saw through it and simply patted Zhang Xiaofan on the shoulder.

Some things he can only figure out on his own.

After the meal, Zhang Xiaofan invited Lin Zhu to the edge of the Biyue Pool, as he had something to discuss.

"What's wrong, Fellow Daoist Zhang?"

Zhang Xiaofan hesitated for a long time, unsure of his stance or what to say.

Lin Zhu guessed as much as he could and stepped in to defuse the situation, saying, "If you can't answer, then don't." After a pause, he added, "May I take a look at this magical artifact in your hand?"

"Ah? Oh!"

Zhang Xiaofan handed over the Soul-Devouring Staff, saying, "Fellow Daoist Lin, here you go!"

Lin Zhu reached out and took it, then channeled his Limitless True Essence into it. Sensing a devouring force, he quickly severed the connection.

This magical artifact is too evil, and Zhang Xiaofan has already recognized it as his master.

"Sigh!" he sighed, then transmitted his voice, "Is that the one pointing forward the Bloodthirsty Bead?"

Zhang Xiaofan suddenly looked up at Lin Zhu.

Lin Zhu continued, "The staff itself is a Soul-Seizing Staff, like the Bloodthirsty Bead, both are evil objects. Combined, they are bloodthirsty and soul-stealing, far too malevolent."

"What does Fellow Daoist Lin wish to do?"

Zhang Xiaofan didn't know any magic, not even how to use telepathy, so he could only ask in a low voice.

"I will pass on to you a secret formula that you can use when malevolent energy affects your mind. It has already recognized you as its master, so I hope you will use it carefully and not harm the innocent."

Zhang Xiaofan is suffering too much; he feels a little sorry for him.

The malevolent energy devoured his heart, bringing him no benefit whatsoever.

“Qingyun disciples are not allowed to learn the martial arts techniques of other sects.” Zhang Xiaofan shook his head repeatedly.

Lin Zhu said, 'If you want to be led astray by it and fall into the demonic path, you don't have to learn it.'

Zhang Xiaofan was speechless, then heard Lin Zhu's voice enter his mind: "If the heart is pure as ice, one will not be alarmed even if the sky collapses; amidst myriad changes, one remains calm and composed;..."

After finishing the Ice Heart Mantra, Zhang Xiaofan's heart was completely calmed down, and he sat on the ground without any joy or sorrow.

The faint malevolent aura that had been emanating from the rod subsided.

As a bell rang, Zhang Xiaofan woke up.

When I opened my eyes, I saw that I was surrounded by people.

Tian Ling'er exclaimed first, "Xiao Fan, have you realized something?"

Zhang Xiaofan looked around, but Lin Zhu had already disappeared.

He's currently outside the crowd. He moved away a bit after seeing the people from Dazhu Peak approach.

"Yes, Fellow Daoist Lin gave me some pointers once before."

Song Daren suddenly realized, nodded, and was about to say something.

Du Bishu blurted out, "Master's wife, Junior Sister Ling'er, let me tell you, Fellow Daoist Lin is amazing. Last night, Senior Brother was given a pointer by him, and this morning he broke through to the sixth level of Jade Purity."

Su Ru then looked at Song Daren; he had indeed broken through.

"Yes, Master's wife, it's all thanks to Fellow Daoist Lin's guidance."

Tian Ling'er exclaimed in surprise, "He's amazing!"

Looking at Tian Ling'er's adoring gaze and expression, Zhang Xiaofan, like Qi Hao, felt a chill run down his spine.

He couldn't bring himself to hate Lin Zhu right now because he had learned the Ice Heart Technique and the Soul Devouring Staff couldn't affect him, so he felt quite uncomfortable.

Su Ru turned around and bowed to Lin Zhu, "Thank you for guiding my disciple, Fellow Daoist Lin."

"Senior, please don't do this. I can't accept such a compliment." Lin Zhu quickly stepped aside.

Su Ru then realized that Lin Zhu was only seventeen years old, and she was so much older than him, so this was indeed inappropriate.

He just smiled, but the more he looked at Lin Zhu, the more pleasing he found him to the eye.

She is good-looking, highly cultivated, and of excellent character; she is good from every angle.

But it's just too good.

Before they could even exchange pleasantries, a voice rang out, "Song Daren of Dazhu Peak versus Chen Li of Longshou Peak."

Tian Ling'er quickly called out, "Senior Brother, it's time for Senior Brother to have his martial arts competition! Let's hurry over there!"

Song Daren used his footwork to quickly step onto the arena.

Zhang Xiaofan and the others followed suit.

Su Ru flew up to watch from high above.

In the empty space outside the main hall, Tian Buyi thought to himself, 'I'll give you a big surprise later.' He turned his head and looked at Cangsong provocatively.

Cangsong snorted again. Song Daren and Chen Li were evenly matched, and at most Song Daren would only win by a narrow margin. What was there to be proud of?

Your eldest disciple is over a hundred years old, while my disciples from Dragon Head Peak are not even fifty.

"Senior Brother Song, please!"

"Junior Brother Chen, please!"

Longshou Peak and Dazhu Peak don't get along, but Song Daren has a very good personality and didn't get angry because of Chen Li's bad tone.

Tian Ling'er shouted towards the arena, "Go, Senior Brother!"

She stayed close to Lin Zhu, occasionally touching the big dumpling.

Lin Zhu handed over the large dumpling directly, "Here you go!"

"Okay!" Tian Ling'er smiled so much that her eyes turned into two crescent moons.

On the stage, the two moved.

Chen Liyu is on the fifth level of the Pure Realm, and Song Daren is on the sixth level.

Song Daren didn't even use his full power; he defeated Chen Li after exchanging dozens of blows with only his cultivation at the sixth level of the Jade Purity Realm.

Tian Buyi stroked his beard. 'Not bad, Da Ren has finally grown up; he knows to hold back a trick up his sleeve.'

"What incredible luck!"

The pine tree uttered a bittersweet remark.

"Hahaha!"

Tian Buyi wasn't angry; instead, he burst into laughter.

He felt pleased when he saw the pine tree was unhappy.

Dao Xuan, Zeng Shuchang, Shang Zhengliang, and other chief disciples all sighed inwardly, realizing that the two were still so at odds.

Shuiyue scoffed, "Nonsense!"

Tian Buyi and Cangsong both looked at Shuiyue.

"What, you want to spar with me too?"

Shuiyue wasn't intimidated by them at all.

Tian Buyi and Cangsong immediately fell silent.
