"Master...Senior Sister, we are sisters..."

Lin Chaoyu reminded Xier weakly.

"Don't worry, why would I cheat you?" Xier waved her hands to indicate that she was such a person.

"That's good..." Lin Chaoyu felt relieved.

"Since you want to go, but there are still so many problems that have not been solved..."

Xier said slowly, "Then you have two hours to find out everything I said above. If you can find out everything within two hours, we will set off tonight."

"Two hours? Did you find out everything?"

Lin Chaoyu's eyes suddenly widened. Who could she ask in this unfamiliar place...

"Finding what you want accurately in a short period of time is a necessary skill for survival in the world."

"Okay... I'll try... No! I will definitely succeed!"

Lin Chaoyu encouraged herself: "Senior Sister! I'm leaving!!!"

"Well, go ahead and wait for your good news."

Xier waved and said goodbye to Lin Chaoyu.

……

Not long after Lin Chaoyu left, Xi'er sat quietly in the chair for a long time, and suddenly said: "After watching for so long, can I come out now?"

"Haha, your perception is really strong."

Just as Xier finished speaking, a rather old voice sounded from the side, and a man in a black robe appeared from the crowd at some point and slowly sat down opposite Xier.

"Haha, I didn't expect that I could trick you out with just a little trick."

Xier said while looking at the man in black robe with a smile as beautiful as a flower.

"You are joking, Your Excellency. I have already been targeted by Your Excellency, so what is the point of talking about deception? If I don't show up, I'm afraid I will be taken away alone to a dark place for questioning, instead of what's happening now."

The man in black robe said this half-jokingly, but his eyes were fixed on Xier, as if he was alert to any movement she might make.

"There's nothing to worry about." Xi'er took a sip of tea and said, "I'm just curious about who you are. After all, you've been with us all the way."

"Please rest assured, I am just a spy for the Tianji Pavilion, collecting information about new talents in the martial arts world to make a living."

"Oh? We haven't shown our strength yet, why would Tianji Pavilion find us?"

Xier narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of murderous intent floated out. If the man in black robe said even a lie, what was waiting for him would not be a simple conversation.

"Hahaha, you are joking." Hearing Xi'er's words, the black-robed man was stunned for a moment and then laughed: "Your Excellency was famous in the martial arts world two years ago. As the first person to enter Taixu Mountain, although you have not shown up for two years, I still remember this information in the Tianji Pavilion. Don't you think so, the disciple of the Red Kite Immortal?"

There was a gleam of light in the black-robed man's eyes, and Xier could clearly see a hint of fanaticism in his eyes.

"Ah... I didn't expect that I was the one who revealed the clue..."

Xi'er was stunned for a moment, then looked at herself with a look of laughter and tears. Didn't she expect that the impact she caused would not dissipate even after two years?

"Don't worry, sir. Only our Tianji Pavilion still remembers this information. After all, most people have never seen your appearance, and even more people only think that you are a rumor."

The black-robed man dispelled Xier's doubts. He said, "If possible, would you please reveal your name? We all know the importance of Taixu Mountain, so we won't ask about your martial arts. That would be disrespectful to the Red Kite Immortal. I dare to promise that none of my disciples of Tianji Pavilion will take the initiative to explore your strength. But the disciples of the Red Kite Immortal are really a big intelligence, so..."

The black-robed man chuckled, raised his index finger and thumb, rubbed them together and said, "So I hope the immortals can tell us our names so that we can earn some money for food."

"You guys have a good plan."

Xi'er looked at the man in black robe with a smile on her face, then nodded and said, "Okay, I can tell you my name. My name is Xi'er Fuleai. Remember it."

"Xier Fuleai?" The man in black robe couldn't help but be surprised when he heard Xier's name. He suddenly looked up at Xier, his eyes full of disbelief.

"What? You don't believe that an outsider like me can become the disciple of the Red Kite Immortal?" There was a hint of amusement on Xier's lips. She naturally knew why the man in black was shocked.

"No... I can't guess what the Red Kite Immortal's intention is. I'm just a little surprised, but it doesn't matter."

The man in black robe was still professional after all. After being surprised, he regained his composure in an instant and said, "Then the deal is concluded."

"By the way, to ensure our sincerity, I will give you a top-secret intelligence, as a token of my respect to the Red Kite Immortal." The black-robed man stood up and said, "It is said that there are often wailing sounds at the Holy Fire Cult's headquarters, and some people have seen demons there. We have also gone to inquire about it, but we did not find anything. However, we speculate that the Holy Fire Cult's purpose is probably not just to gain fame. If you really want to go to the Holy Fire Cult, please be careful, as it is a very complicated place."

After saying this, the man in black robe blended into the crowd again and disappeared.

"Is the water deep..."

Xier stared at the teacup, not knowing what she was thinking about.

After a long while, she raised her head and said, "But if it's a demon-possessed person, it looks like we have to go and wade in the water again."

Chapter 53: Martial Arts Conference

An hour after the man in black robe left, Lin Chaoyu ran back panting.

“Master…Master…Senior Sister!”

Lin Chaoyu ran back excitedly, calling Xier. From the bright smile on her face, one could tell that she must have gained a lot.

"Senior Sister... I... I! Ahem..."

Lin Chaoyu ran to Xier and wanted to say something, but she couldn't speak because of her dry mouth. She looked down and suddenly found the tea in front of Xier. She raised it and drank it all.

"Drink slowly, don't choke."

"Gudongdong...ha...I'm fine now."

After drinking some water to relieve his thirst, Lin Chaoyu immediately said to Xier excitedly, "Senior Sister! I got the information."

"Oh? Tell me?"

"Yes, I found out that the Holy Fire Cult's martial arts competition will begin at the beginning of next month, and the location is at the Holy Fire Cult's headquarters."

Lin Chaoyu counted on his fingers the information he had obtained.

"It's the middle of the month now, which means we still have more than ten days to travel. The Holy Fire Cult's base is not far from where we are now. If we take a car, we can get there in about ten days, which gives us a few more days."

Lin Chaoyu explained her plan in detail.

"Not bad." Xi'er nodded with satisfaction. It was already very good that Lin Chaoyu had found out so much information. However, Xi'er turned her head and looked at the figure behind Lin Chaoyu and said, "It seems that you have met a powerful person."

“Hehe…” Lin Chaoyu scratched his head embarrassedly and said, “Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Senior Sister.”

Then she turned to look at the person behind her and said, "Come, let me introduce you. This is my senior sister Xier."

"Eh? No no, I just..."

"Hey don't be shy!"

Seeing that the person behind him was still a little shy, Lin Chaoyu directly held down the person who was about to retreat, pushed him in front of Xier, pointed at her and said, "Senior Sister! This is Zhong Liyan, whom I just met, Miss Zhongli."

"Oh? Miss Zhongli?" Xier carefully looked at the little girl who was pushed in front of her.

The little girl was very delicate. She was hiding behind Lin Chaoyu just now, so Xier didn't see her clearly. But now she saw that the little girl was dressed as a knight. Her long hair was tied up in a crown, and her pretty face was lightly made up. She looked very elegant, and a scholarly temperament emanated from her.

Although the girl was wearing men's clothes, anyone with good eyesight could tell her true gender. After all, people in ancient times were not as androgynous as they are today. Besides, didn't the girl wear a chest binder? Anyone who saw the pair of weapons on her chest would not mistake her for a boy.

"Hey! Miss Lin, didn't we agree not to reveal my real gender..." The little girl named Zhong Liyan heard Lin Chaoyu directly call her Miss, and hurriedly turned around to question Lin Chaoyu.

Lin Chaoyu laughed and said, "Even if I didn't say it, Senior Sister would have noticed it."

"Chaoyu is right. I have a special way of observing people. Miss Zhongli has an extraordinary temperament and is easy to recognize." Xier nodded to confirm Lin Chaoyu's statement.

"Eh? Really... I thought I disguised myself pretty well..." When Zhong Li Yan heard Xier say this, she unconsciously raised her hand to fiddle with her hair. She looked down at her clothes and looked lost.

(Ah, this... why do I feel a little embarrassed to break her fantasy...)

Looking at the innocent girl in front of her, Xier suddenly wondered if she should not tell anyone about it...

Lin Chaoyu came to the rescue at the critical moment. She took Zhong Liyan's hand and pressed her down on the seat, then said to Xier, "Senior sister! Miss Zhong Li is amazing. She knows all the questions I asked just now, and she also told me some very interesting knowledge on the way here!"

"It's not as amazing as you say..." Zhong Liyan shyly slapped Lin Chaoyu's hand away, and then said: "It's just some common sense that ordinary people know."

"Hey? But ordinary people know it?" Lin Chaoyu asked with a crooked look: "Does everyone really know the Jie Qing Sect's secret weapon?"

"Oh? Jie Qing Men?"

Xier narrowed her eyes slightly when she heard Lin Chaoyu's words. Although Xier didn't often go down the mountain, she still knew the top martial arts schools in the martial arts world.

The Jieqing Sect mentioned by Lin Chaoyu is one of the largest sects in the martial arts world. As the saying goes: It is better to travel with ghosts than to meet Jieqing disciples.

Where there are people, there is the world of martial arts, and where there is the world of martial arts, there will be countless grievances and hatreds. When there is trouble, there will naturally be people who can solve the trouble, and this is the case with the Jieqing Sect.

As a master of assassination, secrecy is the rule of Jie Qing Sect's operations, so most people in the martial arts world are not clear about the actual martial arts of Jie Qing Sect.

But if what Lin Chaoyu said was true, then the identity of this Miss Zhongli was extraordinary.

"Eh? Is this another secret? Did I let it slip again?" Seeing Lin Chaoyu's puzzled look, Zhong Liyan showed a surprised expression, and then said with a sad face: "It's over, it's over. I'm sure I'll be spanked by my aunt again when I get home."

Seeing Zhong Liyan's anxious look, Lin Chaoyu asked, "Eh? Your aunt isn't here right now. If you don't tell her, how will she know that you are wrong?"

"Huh?" After hearing Lin Chaoyu's words, Zhong Liyan was stunned for a moment and then he realized that what Lin Chaoyu said seemed to make some sense!

"Stupid, don't teach others bad things."

Seeing that Zhong Liyan, an honest and innocent girl, was about to be seduced by Lin Chaoyu, Xier quickly interrupted Lin Chaoyu's bewitching technique and said to Zhong Liyan, "It's okay, Miss Zhongli. Although Jieqingmen's moves are top secret, they are not absolute. Some information has already been circulated in the martial arts world, so don't worry."

"Oh, really... That's okay, that's okay. I thought the matter of the Hun Tian Star Map couldn't be told." Zhong Li Yan patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"..."

(Should I tell her that the Hun Tian Xing Tu is the sect's most important method, a secret that is not to be passed on?)

Xier didn't expect that Zhong Liyan would reveal such a big thing. What's even more bizarre is that the little girl was completely unaware of it.

"Ahem, let's get back to the topic." Xier coughed a few times to attract the attention of the two. She was afraid that if she didn't stop this little girl, the three of them would not be able to leave the city for a while.

"Since Miss Zhongli and Zhaoyu have returned together, it means she has something to ask for."

"Yes," Zhong Liyan nodded and said, "Just as Miss Xier said, I do have something I want to ask you two for help."

Zhong Liyan took a deep breath as if to muster up his courage before he said, "Excuse me, can I go with you two to observe the Holy Fire Sect's martial arts competition?"

"Oh? You want to travel with us?" Xier raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why do you want to travel with us?"

"Because..." Zhongli Yan hesitated.

"Just say it." Xier waved her hand to dispel her doubts. Although she didn't know what she was worried about, it must be related to her next words.

"Okay..." Zhong Liyan calmed down again and said, "When I met Miss Lin just now, Miss Lin helped me catch the thief who stole my money. I saw that Miss Lin's Qinggong was peculiar, so I asked her about it unconsciously. Miss Lin also generously told me that this Qinggong was called Zhuque Treading on the Storm."

'Oh no, it's over'

Xier has already guessed why Zhongli Yan wanted to go with them. Zhuque Treading on the Storm is the name of the Red Kite Immortal's martial arts. Zhongli Yan has probably guessed the identities of the two of them.

I didn’t expect that Lin Chaoyu is also an expert in self-destruction…

"Hey hey hey..."

Lin Chaoyu felt Xier's eyes that seemed to freeze time and space, and he couldn't help but scratch his head in embarrassment, trying to get away with it.

"So...you two, can you allow me to go with you?" Zhong Liyan seemed to know that Xier didn't want people to know her identity, so he concealed some of his words.

She looked up at Xier, and Xier could feel a burning curiosity in her eyes.

"Well... it's not impossible. I didn't intend to hide it, but it would be inconvenient if others knew my identity. Since Miss Zhongli wants to go with us, that's fine. I just hope..."

"I swear I will never reveal any information about Sister Xier!" Zhong Liyan immediately raised his hand and swore, "If I break this oath, I will be struck by lightning!"

"Okay... In that case, please give me your guidance, Miss Zhongli." Seeing her make such a vow, Xier didn't say anything else. Besides, Zhongli Yan's identity was special, and if anything happened on the way, she might be of use.

"Great! We can go together!" Lin Chaoyu shouted excitedly.

"Morning rain~~"

"Um... Senior Sister?"

"Today's training has tripled, so reflect on yourself!"

"Hey!!!! No!!! Senior Sister!!!"

"Questions and answers are useless! Just grit your teeth!"

Chapter 54: The Deep

After learning the specific time of the martial arts competition, Xier and the others set out again.

Originally, this training was mainly for Lin Chaoyu. Since she wanted to go to the martial arts competition, Xier had no reason to refuse. The reason why she set up some obstacles for her was just to test Lin Chaoyu's social skills.

But what Xier didn't expect was that Lin Chaoyu actually kidnapped a magical little girl from somewhere unknown.
