After being rejected once, I gave up.

But who would have thought that his friend Liu Deshui, who was secretly with him, got what he wanted because of his thick skin.

Lu Linglong also felt a little sorry for her great-grandfather at this moment.

"It really fits the saying: if you're thick-skinned, you get what you want; if you're thin-skinned, you get nothing."

Zhang Chulan looked envious when he learned the specific effects of the Nine-Colored Jade Butterfly Technique.

"This Liu Deshui must have been blessed with great fortune. This Nine-Colored Jade Butterfly Technique can prolong one's lifespan. I'm afraid he's still alive in the human world."

Hearing that the Nine-Colored Jade Butterfly Technique could actually prolong one's life, Lu Jin couldn't help but feel moved.

"Chu Lan, do you know the specific function of this Nine-Colored Jade Butterfly Technique?"

Zhang Chulan nodded.

"Yes, I know."

"According to the owner of the notes, if one can continuously circulate Qi using the Nine-Colored Jade Butterfly Technique, one can prevent the dissipation of one's own Qi and even reduce the depletion of one's lifespan."

"All injuries sustained can also be instantly healed using the essence stored previously."

"It's similar to the third level of Reverse Life, but as long as the essence is sufficient, the speed of recovery should be faster than the third level of Reverse Life."

After hearing this, Lu Jin suddenly understood.

“It turns out to be this effect.”

"If you look at it this way, it's very likely that Liu Deshui didn't die back then."

"Zhang Chulan, come to think of it, this Liu Deshui is your godfather."

Zhang Chulan was extremely surprised when he heard this.

"Are you saying that Liu Deshui was also one of the thirty-six people back then?"

Lu Jin nodded.

"Correct!"

"According to the people of Yanwu Hall, they chased Liu Deshui to a cliff, where he jumped off and died."

"If the Nine-Colored Jade Butterfly Technique is really as magical as you say, there is a great possibility that Liu Deshui is not dead."

"It's even possible that he would still be alive today."

After hearing Lu Jin say this, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but shook his head.

"I never thought that this Liu Deshui is actually one of my godfathers."

"Why did they kill these people so quickly back then?"

"Is it because of the Eight Great Techniques?"

Lu Jin shook his head.

"No, it's just that the then-Shuzi Sect leader was too harsh in his punishment. He even killed his own son, so the other sects had to express their opinions."

“It’s frustrating, but this is reality.”

After hearing this, Zhang Chulan remained silent.

It turns out that everything was caused just for face.

Could the scarred man I met in Kunlun Mountain before be this Liu Deshui?

How many of the thirty-six people back then are still alive? Where did Wu Gensheng go in the end?

For a moment, a kind of fog shrouded Zhang Chulan's heart.

And at this time.

Feng Baobao has also continued reading from her notes.

After I taught Liu Deshui the Nine-Colored Jade Butterfly Technique, I warned him not to reveal to anyone else that I was the one who taught him. If I ever found out, I would definitely arrest him and skin him alive.

[Liu Deshui, the fat boy, was a bit too honest. He was frightened by what I said at the time. He even said that he would never use the Nine-Colored Jade Butterfly Technique in front of outsiders unless it was absolutely necessary.]

Just a few days after teaching Liu Deshui the Nine-Colored Jade Butterfly Technique, he was called away by Zuo Ruotong. According to Zuo Ruotong, Liu Deshui was not suitable for practicing the third level of Reverse Rebirth, so he recommended him to Yanwu Hall.

Soon after Liu Deshui left, Lu Jin also entered the inner sect and began to learn the third level of Reverse Rebirth. However, practicing the third level of Reverse Rebirth was fraught with danger, so he finally called in the head of the Lu family to confirm before deciding to accept him as a disciple.

[Half a month after the two of them left, Li Muxuan took the initiative to find me and said he wanted to become my disciple!]

I've been busy these days, so the update is unstable. Sorry everyone.

Chapter 165: At the Foot of Changbai Mountain, Yunding Palace

[I am not surprised by Li Muxuan's arrival.]

Because Liu Deshui was unsuitable, he was sent away, and Lu Jin was suitable and accepted into the inner sect.

[He was the only one left in the outer courtyard.]

[After all, he is still just a child. Being neither up nor down will eventually make people afraid.]

However, this child's heart isn't sincere yet. The Immortal Nanhua once told me that his reincarnation must be willing, without the slightest hesitation or cowardice, to have a chance to ascend to the immortal path in this life.

[It seems that the time is not right now.]

[I then rejected Li Muxuan's request to become his disciple.]

Li Muxuan immediately collapsed, questioning why I had wanted to take him in as my disciple in the first place, but now refused to do so.

[I didn't explain the reason, I just let Li Muxuan figure it out on his own.]

[I don't know when it started, but I've become the riddler I once hated the most.]

Hearing how he treated Li Muxuan, Zhang Chulan felt a little worried.

"Li Muxuan was still a child at the time. Could he really understand the good intentions of the owner of the notes and Sect Leader Zuo?"

"Isn't this a bit too cruel to him?"

The old Taoist priest had a different opinion at this time.

"After all, this is about becoming an immortal, and this kind of thing is the most important thing for any individual."

"If anyone knew at that time where the opportunity to become an immortal lay, it would probably have sparked a battle even larger than the Eight Great Techniques."

Hearing what his master said, Zhang Chulan nodded.

"I understand, Master."

Obviously, he still didn't really take the old Taoist priest's words to heart.

Seeing Zhang Chulan like this, the old Taoist sighed.

"You haven't experienced that era, so naturally you don't understand what those people really think."

"It can be said that even I can't resist the temptation of becoming an immortal, let alone those sects."

After saying this, the old Taoist priest stopped talking.

And Zhang Chulan also understood the hidden meaning in the old Taoist's words.

That means.

In that era, even these so-called famous and upright people did things that were essentially not much different from those of the Quanxing people.

Think of this.

Zhang Chulan nodded.

"Yes, Master, I understand!"

When Lu Jin heard that his master and senior note-taker actually chose to treat Li Muxuan like this, he sighed helplessly.

"No wonder Li Muxuan became like that later."

"With this kind of experience, even for me, I simply don't have the means or patience to break through."

"My final option is probably to notify my father and take me home."

"Then choose a new sect and join it."

After hearing Lu Jin say this, everyone realized that sometimes, one cannot rely solely on one's own wishful thinking to do anything.

at this time.

Feng Baobao continued reading.

After Li Muxuan left, I was quiet for a few days, then went back to chopping wood and fetching water as usual. Zuo Rutong then found me and told me that he wanted Li Muxuan to go down the mountain to study.

[It's certainly right to learn more knowledge. I didn't continue to care about this matter. Zuo Rutong asked Li Muxuan to become a disciple of Dongshan.]

Dongshan was a man of profound learning, and could be said to have mastered both Chinese and foreign knowledge, both ancient and modern.

[If you want to embark on the path of immortality, you must be knowledgeable. I chose to open a bookstore at the foot of the mountain of Trinity Gate. While I can observe Li Muxuan, I can also see the various aspects of the world.]

I've been moving too fast these past few years, trying to accomplish in a few decades what others might not be able to accomplish in a hundred years. It's time to take a break.

Li Muxuan also learned that I had opened a bookstore at the foot of the mountain.

[I have to say, this kid is incredibly smart. He immediately realized that I hadn't given up on him, but was observing and testing him.]

[However, this test was an insult to him, and unexpectedly triggered his rebellious psychology.]

[He came to my bookstore and declared that he would never become my disciple in his lifetime.]

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Was the owner of the note's intention discovered so quickly?

If this is the case, then this test may have lost its original purpose.

After all, what Li Muxuan's future choices will be depends on himself.

The note owner can no longer intervene.

I just don't know if the owner of the notebook has any other way to make up for it.

If it can't be made up for.

Then the plan of guiding Li Muxuan to become an immortal would be ruined.

All calculations are of no use.

When everyone was thinking about it.

Feng Baobao's voice continued to ring out.

[I've messed up. I remember the last time I messed up was back in Eagle Country. I have to see if there's any way to make up for it.]

For the rest of the day, Li Muxuan continued to study diligently in the academy. Judging by his serious expression, it was obvious that he knew Zuo Rutong was testing him, so he began to act like a good kid to gain their trust.

It would be fine if he could do whatever he wanted, but this is just a pretense, deceiving himself and others, and falling short.

I didn't give up, but chose to continue squatting here, hoping for a chance to make amends. Then, Yakan found me through the method I'd left him, and told me that Zhang Qilin, whom I'd brought from Northeast China, had partially recovered his memories.

[Zhang Qilin's matter concerns the truth about immortality and the substance of immortality, so I have to leave temporarily.]

[However, Zuo Ruotong's plan is to have Li Muxuan study in the academy for three years, so even if he leaves temporarily for a while, it won't matter.]

Hearing that the owner of the notebook was going to look for the truth about immortality again, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but look at Lu Jin.

"Master Lu, do you know the details of this matter?"

"What happened next?"

Hearing this, Lu Jin nodded.

"I know the specifics better. This senior said goodbye to my master before leaving, saying he would be back in a while."

"I happened to be there at the time, and I don't know what he did."

"Now it seems that the owner of this notebook is going to look for the secret of immortality."

Zhang Chulan was very curious at this moment.

"Did Li Muxuan finally accept this senior as his disciple?"

Lu Jin shook his head.
