Wei Tianci frowned and said, "Holy Temple Master, if you have something to say, we can talk about it privately."

He preferred to face Helena's imposing presence alone rather than have any men join in.

The best outcome would be for Xu Mei to leave quickly so he could deal with Helena alone; otherwise, by the time Che Tianqi and his group realized what was happening, they would be surrounded.

Helena said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Wei, your appearance is undeniably noble, but you attract all sorts of beauties, which brings trouble, do you know that?"

Wei Tianci narrowed his eyes: "I know a little bit."

He was well aware of his passive situation. He came to this world to advance the plot, but as he pushed things along, almost all the female leads turned against him.

His problem now is that if he pushes them away, he will feel uncomfortable. If he accepts them, he will have to undergo a test from fate.

So he kept improving, venturing into the world of cultivators in search of opportunities, all so that one day he could break through the rules and raise children with his beloved concubines.

Helena didn't need to remind me.

Helena nodded slightly: "Fellow Daoist Wei, although we have old and new grudges, I can give you a chance to live and live freely. It depends on whether you can seize it."

"It also depends on whether Sect Master Ling, who is by your side, is willing to make a great sacrifice for you."

Wei Tianci was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

He knew about the old and new grudges with the Holy Temple, and he wanted to cripple Ye Fan and kill the elders.

But what does Ling Xumei's enormous contribution mean?

Helena said calmly, "Because Sect Master Ling has a map about the 'Jade Pool Holy Water'."

Ling Xumei raised his eyebrows upon hearing this: "You came here for this?"

She did indeed possess such a fragment of a map, and legend has it that its ultimate destination was the Jade Pool Holy Water.

The holy water of Yaochi is a natural treasure; drinking just one drop can prolong life and instantly grant enlightenment and a level-up.

However, the Jade Pool Holy Water was already a legendary thing, and Ling Xumei's place was also a fragment, so she never had any designs on it; such a thing was not for her.

Hearing Helena mention it now, she suddenly understood.

Among the established cultivators in the cultivation world today, Helena is almost at the top of the food chain, because she has been stuck at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection realm for many years.

Therefore, she was the most eager cultivator to advance to the Nascent Soul stage or the Divine Transformation stage.

After advancing, both your strength and lifespan will undergo a qualitative change, bringing immeasurable benefits.

So she set her sights on the holy water of Yaochi?

really.

Helena said calmly, "My condition is that Sect Master Ling gives me the incomplete map, and then you cooperate with me to find the Jade Pool Holy Water."

"I can give you a year to prepare before that."

Upon hearing this, Ling Xumei frowned and said, "I can give you the incomplete map, but Tianci and I will not accompany you to find the Yaochi Holy Water."

Helena smiled slightly: "Sect Leader Ling, I'm not discussing this with you, because this is a prerequisite for your survival."

Although her tone was calm and her expression gentle, her underlying meaning was unquestionable.

Wei Tianci asked curiously, "What role can we play?"

The temple is never short of experts, so these two aren't that indispensable, are they?

Did Helena worry that the man was trying to fool her with a fake incomplete map? But there was absolutely no need for that.

Even if you give her the real fragmented map, and then piece it together to form a complete map, you will eventually find the legendary Jade Pool Holy Water.

This process is perhaps harder than climbing to heaven, so there's no need to resort to deception anymore.
