Xu Shulou dreams she’s a character in a bizarre storybook.
The male lead is Long Aotian, a man with a “Dragon Overlord” script: treasures fall into his lap, beauties vie for his heart.
...
Fairy-like appearance
The Hehuan Sect is said to be located in the green mountains, but the entrance is in the water. Several people swam in the lake for a long distance. Under the guidance of the girls, they finally saw a glimmer on the water surface. When they came out of the water, they saw a long white jade staircase. It turned out that the lake led directly to the main hall of the Hehuan Sect, and the sect was guarded by the sect master himself.
"This design is quite clever." Xu Shulou praised.
The leading girl smiled at her and said, "Since you have the treasure, you must be on guard against others trying to steal it."
Xu Shulou understood what she meant. The Hehuan Sect's skills can be used for dual cultivation or unilateral cultivation. Moreover, the progress of unilateral cultivation is many times faster than that of dual cultivation. If it falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, who knows how many innocent boys and girls will be harmed.
Many people do covet this kind of martial arts, and even disciples will not easily learn it without being tested.
People only think that beauty is the key to entering the Hehuan Sect, but they don’t know that the most important thing for them to test when accepting disciples is their character.
Therefore, when the leader of the Hehuan Sect asked, "I wonder if Miss Xu is interested in becoming my disciple," Xu Shulou was quite flattered.
"The master is joking."
The leader of the Hehuan Sect began to laugh. Xu Shulou couldn't tell her age, but he felt that her smile was enchanting and charming, yet also contained a bit of girlish innocence, which made people unable to take their eyes off her.
Xu Shulou did not look away. She always liked to appreciate beautiful people and things.
"You're staring at me," the clan leader pointed out, "Do I look good?"
"The sect master's beauty is the only one I have ever seen in my life."
The leader of the Hehuan clan chuckled again: "If this stinky man said this, I would definitely cut off his tongue."
Xu Shulou smiled bitterly: "Then I should be careful with my words and protect the only tongue I have."
The clan leader tilted his head and looked at her. This simple action was performed by her in a very charming way: "Do you know why I invited you here?"
"The leader wants to cooperate with us to destroy the evil demon that harms people."
"I like people who are knowledgeable and interesting the most," the sect leader nodded. "Although the Hehuan Sect is not afraid of those people, there are still some troubles after all."
Xu Shulou understood that the current position of the Hehuan Sect in the cultivation world was very awkward. The famous and upright sects despised them, fearing that their disciples would be seduced by them; the evil demons coveted them, wanting their skills and also wanting them. Unfortunately, the sect leader did not dare to spread this dual cultivation skills. Most of the disciples only practiced the basic skills of the cultivation world, resulting in not many people available in the sect.
Especially recently they had a dispute with the famous and upright Xuanwu Tower. The leader of Xuanwu Tower threatened to eradicate the Hehuan Sect and eliminate the harm to the cultivation world.
Now that this case has happened near their territory, the sect leader urgently needs to cooperate with a famous and upright sect to capture this evil demon, both for the sake of fame and for deterrence.
"Please allow me to think about this, Master."
"I understand. Given the situation of the Hehuan Sect, the young lady must be cautious," the Sect Master called someone, "Take Miss Xu and her group to the guesthouse to rest."
"Mom!" When Xu Shulou stepped out of the door, a little girl who ran over almost bumped into her.
This girl looks like she is in her prime, with a delicate and pretty face. Even at such a young age, one can tell that she will be a stunning beauty in the future.
The little girl stopped and looked at Xu Shulou with her beautiful eyes: "Who are you?"
Xu Shulou smiled and said, "I am your mother's guest."
"Afu, why are you still so reckless?" The clan leader called out to her, "Hurry up and apologize to Miss Xu."
A Fu is Luo Fusheng, the beautiful woman in Xu Shulou’s dream who will become the most beautiful woman in the future.
Xu Shulou couldn't help but stop for a moment and looked back at the little girl's back as she ran towards her mother.
In the storybook, the Hehuan Sect appeared very late, at least not in the section about looking for demons. Maybe in the storybook, they also secretly observed, but the people from the Lingxiao Sect and Wuchen Island did not meet their standards. Maybe they approached the Lingxiao Sect, but were rejected in the end.
In short, in Xu Shulou's dream, the Hehuan Sect was only mentioned once as Luo Fusheng's background - after all the members of the Hehuan Sect were slaughtered, the sect's daughter Luo Fusheng escaped and was rescued by Lu Beichen, the eldest disciple of the Lingxiao Sect who had the potential to be the leader of the righteous path.
Luo Fusheng gave all the rare magic weapons and skills she brought out from the sect to Lu Beichen in exchange for her revenge. In the end, under Lu Beichen's persuasion, she had to make peace with her enemy, the people in Xuanwu Tower, for the sake of the overall situation. Later, she and the daughter of the owner of Xuanwu Tower were married to Lu Beichen on the same day.
In Xu Shulou's dream, this character played a very minor role and did not occupy a lot of space. It seemed that she just appeared at the right time to give Lu Beichen a magic weapon that he urgently needed. Her stunning appearance added a touch of brilliance to Lu Beichen, and her identity as a demon girl from the Hehuan Sect showed Lu Beichen's broad-minded mind.
No one cares about her hatred, her resentment, her thoughts, or whether she is unwilling to give in.
Xu Shulou withdrew his boundless thoughts and followed the girl with the lantern out of the main hall. Others from Wuchen Island were waiting for her there. Bai Roushuang came up to her as soon as she saw her: "Senior sister, what did the sect master say to you?"
Xu Shulou said succinctly: "The leader wants to cooperate with us to kill the demon."
Song Ping looked at her and gave a conventional answer: "No need."
Indeed, there is no need for cooperation for Wuchen Island.
The person who urgently needs this cooperation is the leader of the Hehuan Sect.
The girl leading the way seemed not to hear and continued to lead the way quietly.
In the distance, there were a few ordinary-looking women, holding wooden basins for washing clothes in their hands, chatting and laughing as they passed by.
Since setting foot here, all the women that everyone has seen are of celestial beauty. When they suddenly saw her at this moment, it was as if they had suddenly returned from the fairyland to the human world.
Xu Shulou whispered, "So there are still mortals in the Hehuan Sect."
The girl holding the lantern then sighed, "They are all pitiful people. The sect leader is kind-hearted and took them in."
“…”
The girl continued, "In fact, the same goes for the rest of us. Even now, if we can find a better place to go, the Sect Master will not stop us."
Perhaps she heard Song Ping's words "there is no need" and she wanted to help as a lobbyist.
Bai Roushuang was slightly startled and was about to say something when she heard the girl say, "We're here."
When they arrived at the guesthouse, a woman offered clothes for everyone to change.
Bai Roushuang stroked the fabric in her hand. The fabric felt a little strange, shining with moonlight and emitting colorful mist.
"Is this the famous colorful feathered robe of the Hehuan Sect?" Xu Shulou also held one in his hand. "It is colorful and shining, keeps you warm in all seasons, and has defensive functions. Sect Master, you are really polite."
The girls smiled, bowed, and withdrew, leaving the group alone.
Bai Roushuang held the clothes in her hands and couldn't let go.
Ji Ci poked her senior sister: "Should we tell the little junior sister that the material of this dress is actually made of the skin of a colorful centipede?"
Xu Shulou looked at Bai Roushuang who had rubbed the clothes against her face again and again and sighed at how soft it was, and shook his head: "Let's just shut up."
Everyone did not rush back to their rooms to rest, but gathered in Xu Shulou's room: "Senior Sister, what is the rule in your mind?"
Xu Shulou did not answer but asked: "Have you heard about the conflict between Xuanwu Tower and Hehuan Sect?"
Song Ping nodded. "The son of the owner of Xuanwu Tower happened to see a member of Hehuan Sect being bullied by an evil cultivator. He stood up for himself and was beaten by the evil cultivator until his tendons and veins were broken, and he became a disabled person. His father thought that his son was seduced and instigated by a witch, so he hated Hehuan Sect. He is a good man, but it's a pity that his father is not very clear-headed."
"It's an unexpected disaster." Xu Shulou sighed.
"That's what they say," Jiang Yan sneered, "but I heard from gossip that this son is the son of Xuanwu Tower Master's ex-wife, and he has not taken care of him since he was young. I'm afraid he is using this as an excuse to attack the Hehuan Sect."
Song Ping was a gentleman, so he didn't make any assumptions. He just asked, "What are your plans, Senior Sister?"
"It is better to resolve a feud than to create one. After this matter is over, I will have to go to Xuanwu Tower."
"If we join forces with the Hehuan Sect to slay the demon, I'm afraid that Xuanwu Tower will hate you too, Senior Sister."
Xu Shulou blinked: "If they want to seek revenge on me, they will probably have to wait in line. After all, they are not the first sect to bear a grudge against me."
"Senior sister has such a good temper, it must be the fault of those sects." Bai Roushuang was very arbitrary. Xu Shulou looked at her very guilty. He felt that if his junior sister was an official in the mortal world, she would judge cases in this way, and who knows how many unjust, false and wrong cases would be made.
