My Daoist partner helps me cultivate immortality

Page 42

"I've always been a collector of magical artifacts."

Gongshu Yan glanced at her, somewhat surprised and a little angry: "Lin Ye, isn't this the one you get along with very well... I think you should be more discreet in public."

Lin Ye said seriously, "Master, haven't I already explained that matter?"

"Fellow Daoist Pang, about that matter..."

"Fellow Daoist Lin, rest assured, the news has not been leaked. The guild leader is a person who cares about his reputation."

"It seems the misunderstanding hasn't been cleared up."

Lin Ye sighed, "You've suffered."

A faint blush rose on Pang Lu's face as she softly said, "It's alright, I wanted to see it myself."

Gongshu Yan was surprised, but then understood: "So it really was a misunderstanding? I'm sorry... I knew it!"

"Looking at your cherry-like lips, you don't seem like someone who..."

Lin Ye raised his hand and covered his master's mouth.

Pang Lu was suddenly startled and her legs twitched slightly.

"By the way, I'd like to know, are Fellow Daoist Lin and Senior Gongshu...?"

"Mm!" Gongshu Yan nodded and took Lin Ye's arm.

Finally discovered, she was a little happy: "Hmph...we are Daoist partners."

Pang Lu's eyes widened in surprise.

I just suddenly thought of it, and I never expected that they actually were a couple.

As Daoist partners, their cultivation levels are vastly different!

Chapter Forty-Six: The Socially Afraid Saintess

"It must have been very hard..."

Pang Lu couldn't help but think as her gaze swept over the hem of Lin Ye's shirt.

A few months ago, Pang Lu, as a collector of magical artifacts, paid to observe the panties that Lin Ye was wearing, which belonged to his master.

However, due to the angle, the two were caught red-handed.

It was also interpreted as them engaging in some kind of inappropriate play in public.

This incident is historically known as the "Guild Hot Dog Incident".

Fortunately, there weren't many witnesses, and the "Guild Hot Dog Incident" didn't gain widespread notoriety as a result, nor were the two people significantly affected.

Remembering that the two were originally Daoist partners, Pang Lu was no longer surprised that a disciple would wear her master's panties. She had struggled with this for a long time, wondering if it was acceptable for a master and disciple to do such a thing...

Looking back now, it makes perfect sense!

Thinking back to when Lin Ye was only at the fifth level of Qi Refining, Pang Lu was a little worried about his survival.

However, he looks quite well now, and has even broken through to the seventh level of Qi Refining.

sharp...

Full of energy!

That said, Lin Ye's cultivation has progressed quite quickly, and he also has a pleasant fragrance of spiritual herbs on his body, which shows that he is living a good life.

This is probably one of the benefits of finding a good Daoist partner...

But in Lin Ye's eyes...

Pang Lu looks richer than before.

"Fellow Daoist Pang, you seem to have become quite wealthy."

"You'd better be careful what you do these days."

Lin Ye was somewhat curious.

Judging from the token, Pang Lu did not become a second-grade weapon refiner. So why did she suddenly become rich? The most likely explanation is that she is in the business of reselling ship tickets.

Recently, many cultivators at her level have been acting as scalpers.

However, given the stinginess of the Wanbaolou manager and the small size of the Qingyang Sect market, the manager could not allow scalpers to continue to exist.

It's estimated that sanctions against Wanbaolou will be coming soon.

Seeing that no one was around, Pang Lu looked somewhat embarrassed: "Could it be..."

Lin Ye immediately understood and tugged at his master's sleeve.

"Master, please create a soundproof barrier."

"Oh, good."

Seeing her mysterious demeanor, Gongshu Yan became interested and set up a soundproof barrier: "What is it? Tell me?"

"I dare not tell the guild's higher-ups about this," Pang Lu whispered. "I've discovered someone who seems to be the Holy Maiden of the Qingyang Sect who went into seclusion twenty years ago!"

"The Holy Maiden of the Qingyang Sect?"

"Yes, now she looks so dejected all the time, and she just hides in a small room in the alley."

“I would occasionally bring her some food or cleansing talismans, and she would give me a lot of rewards.”

"However, the Holy Maiden has recently run out of spirit stones, so I haven't been there for three days."

Lin Ye raised an eyebrow.

If it doesn't drop gold coins, just discard it.

ruthless.

The Holy Maiden of Qingyang Sect... I don't know her! But there might be something to gain from this guy.

Lin Ye became interested.

He clasped his hands in a fist and said, "I was ignorant; I've never heard of this Holy Maiden!"

Gongshu Yan chimed in, "Me too!"

Pang Lu smiled calmly and said, "That's normal. Ordinary cultivators don't go into seclusion for twenty years."

"It is said that during one of the Holy Maiden's seclusions, her master—the former sect leader—fell from power."

"The Holy Maiden was so frightened that she dared not come out to see anyone, and for the next twenty years she remained in seclusion."

Lin Ye nodded.

What a shameful saintess...

I knew it! It's impossible for a mid- to low-level cultivator to go into seclusion for twenty years.

That's been way too long!

This kind of thing is basically only done during the Mahayana period.

It sounds like this saintess has simply been hiding in her secluded chamber for twenty years without coming out.

A socially awkward, reclusive female monk...?

I wish I were in the ancient cultivation world; how come there are all sorts of people here?

"In the past twenty years, the sect leader and elders have all been replaced."

"She can no longer be considered a true saint, but her status has never been revoked."

Gongshu Yan laughed heartily: "Perhaps someone has forgotten about it?"

"Hmm...the Holy Maiden of the Qingyang Sect...she has the bloodline of a strange beast!"

"what?"

Pang Lu said, "So I'm very curious, given her status, does she even have a chance to leave?"

Gongshu Yan hesitated and said, "It probably won't work... right?"

"After all, she is the Holy Maiden of the Qingyang Sect."

“But according to you, she has no connection with the current high-ranking members of the Qingyang Sect.”

“There are even alien beast bloodlines.”

"What bad luck..."

Lin Ye shrugged: "Since she's so dejected, she must have tried to get out but couldn't."

"However, the previous sect leader actually allowed a cultivator with the bloodline of a strange beast to become a saintess?"

Pang Lu nodded: "The Qingyang Sect's discrimination against cultivators with the bloodline of exotic beasts began with this sect leader."

"That period of history was quickly buried along with the downfall of the previous leader."

Lin Ye said she understood.

"Fellow Daoist Pang, do you know what kind of exotic beast bloodline the Holy Maiden possesses?"

"I'm not sure, but her eyes have vertical pupils..."

Ok?

Vertical pupils... Could he be a dragon descendant?!

However, it could also be a lizard or snake.

The possibilities range from dragons to miscellaneous beasts.

That's a huge difference.

"What realm is the Saintess?"

"It is the [Pseudo-Core Stage]."

"Basically, anyone who has heard of the Saintess's existence knows that she's currently at the Pseudo-Core Formation stage, so she's very unlucky..."

Lin Ye seemed to be deep in thought.

The False Core Stage is also a hidden realm.

However, it is different from the hidden realm of Qi Refining Stage 10, which is exclusive to geniuses.

The False Core stage is merely an incomplete Golden Core stage, indicating that there was a problem during the breakthrough.

If a Foundation Establishment cultivator fails to prepare sufficient auxiliary spiritual medicines when breaking through to the Golden Core stage, has a serious underlying illness, or lacks sufficient spiritual strength, they may undergo incorrect evolution.

To reach the incomplete state of the False Elixir stage.

This saintess may have locked herself in a solitary confinement room, which resulted in her lack of rare and precious materials to aid her breakthrough.

Instead of going out to ask for help, what a lazy bum...

In addition, the pseudo-elixir stage is a very rare realm.

Lin Ye finally understood why she couldn't escape.

If only she were at the Golden Core stage!

If we find a way to change our appearance, it seems like it's not impossible to leave.

After all, he has the bloodline of a strange beast, so he doesn't seem to be a member of the Qingyang Sect.

However, the False Core Stage is such a rare realm that it attracts too much attention!

The most fatal thing is that, for some reason, many people still know that the Holy Maiden is a fake Core Formation cultivator.

Sent!

No wonder she had given up struggling.

Lin Ye smiled and asked, "Master, do you still have the rare and precious materials you used to break through to the Golden Core stage?"

"Ah...right, they haven't been sold yet!"
