After Jiang Taohua returned to the Red Dust Inn, she called A, B, C, and D and told them, "I have something to do and will be away for a long time. This Red Dust Inn will be closed."

A, B, C, and D were very surprised and asked in unison, "Where are you going, Second Shopkeeper?"

"I have something to deal with at home." Jiang Taohua replied simply.

Seeing that Jiang Taohua didn't want to talk more, A, B, C, and D tactfully stopped asking.

After Jiang Taohua told A, B, C, and D about her departure, she gave them some money and left the Hongchen Inn.

At the same time, Nan Huaijin returned to Ci'en Temple, found Master Yuanji, told him what happened last night, and knelt down to apologize to Master Yuanji.

"Master, I have broken the precepts and failed to live up to your expectations of me." He said with a sad expression. Thinking of what happened last night, his heart felt like it was being tortured.

Master Yuanji looked at his pained expression and smiled kindly, "Shengkong, this is God's will. You don't have to blame yourself too much. As long as you have Buddha in your heart, it doesn't matter even if you break the precepts this time."

Nan Huaijin remained silent. His comfort did not make him feel any better. Instead, he felt even more guilty.

He blamed himself for not having enough self-control last night, which led to that happening.

Master Yuanji looked at him, lost in his misery, and knew that he had to let himself figure it out. So he said, "Shengkong, you've been at Ci'en Temple for over twenty years. It's time for you to travel and see the world outside."

If this child goes out and sees the world outside, perhaps his character will change, and he will no longer just want to stay in Buddhism.

Nan Huaijin remained silent, feeling very uncomfortable. Was his master blaming him for breaking the precepts and wanted him to leave Ci'en Temple?

"Shengkong, you don't have to be too hard on yourself. Just follow your heart." Master Yuanji's words had hidden meaning.

Nan Huaijin looked at Master Yuanji and after a long silence, he said, "Master, do you want me to leave Ci'en Temple?"

"Shengkong, as long as you are willing to stay in Ci'en Temple, the door of Ci'en Temple will always be open for you." Master Yuanji looked at him meaningfully and thought to himself, it's just that you won't be willing to stay in Ci'en Temple in the future.

Nan Huaijin was deeply moved when he heard this. Thinking about the fact that he had broken his vows, he felt even more ashamed of his master who had devoted himself to cultivating him, and of Ci'en Temple.

Master Yuanji looked at Nan Huaijin and said, "Shengkong, go down and travel around and see the outside world. As long as you have Buddha in your heart, everywhere is a pure land."

Obey God's will and go find your destined person. He didn't say this to himself, a disciple who only wanted to stay in Buddhism.

Finally, Nan Huaijin listened to Master Yuanji's words and decided to go down the mountain to travel, see the outside world, and purify his mind and body.

After packing his luggage, Nan Huaijin left Ci'en Temple with his fellow disciples looking on reluctantly.

Jiang Taohua traveled thousands of miles across mountains and rivers and finally arrived in southern Xinjiang.

When she arrived in southern Xinjiang, it was noon, so Jiang Taohua found an inn to have her meal.

She found a seat by the window and after ordering her food, Jiang Taohua leaned lazily against the window, admiring the street scenery.

The streets of southern Xinjiang are crowded with people and merchants, and are very lively and prosperous, full of exotic customs.

Both men and women behaved in a very free and easy manner, without any sense of shyness.

While Jiang Taohua was admiring the street scenery, a group of people from the underworld at the next table started gossiping.

"Hey, have you heard? The leader of the Holy Moon Cult has now become Chen Qianchi."

"Chen Qianchi? Isn't this the Left Protector of the Holy Moon Sect? How did he become the leader of the Holy Moon Sect?"

"That's right. Even if the Holy Moon Sect leader Jiang Taohua was killed by the Central Plains martial arts world, the new leader position should have been Jiang Taohua's younger brother Jiang Xinghun. It would never have been Chen Qianchi's turn."

"I heard that Chen Qianchi has a handwritten note from Jiang Taohua, which states that after her death, the position of leader of the Holy Moon Cult will be passed on to Chen Qianchi."

"I think this decree must be fake. Jiang Taohua loves her brother so much, how could she pass the position of the leader of the Holy Moon Sect to Chen Qianchi and not to her brother?"

"I think so too. I also heard that Jiang Xinghun is missing."

"Ah, Jiang Xinghun is missing. Could it be that Chen Qianchi killed Jiang Xinghun in order to obtain the position of the leader of the Holy Moon Sect?"

"I think it's very likely."

"Hey, don't discuss this anymore. If Chen Qianchi's men hear us, we'll be in trouble."

After hearing what he said, the people who were discussing the matter enthusiastically shut up and stopped discussing it.

Jiang Taohua listened to their discussion word for word, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and a dangerous light flashed in them.

It didn't take long before the food Jiang Taohua ordered arrived.

Jiang Taohua began to concentrate on her meal.

After finishing her meal, Jiang Taohua paid the bill at the counter, then left the inn and headed for the Holy Moon Sect.

The Holy Moon Sect is located in the Tianshan Mountains in southern Xinjiang, and its entrance is extremely hidden.

Except for the members of the Holy Moon Sect, outsiders cannot find the entrance to the Holy Moon Sect.

Even if you are lucky enough to find the entrance to the Holy Moon Sect and enter, you will never have the chance to come out.

Therefore, the Holy Moon Sect became synonymous with a secluded paradise and was very mysterious in the martial arts world.

There is a widely circulated saying among the people in the martial arts world: people only know that the Holy Moon Sect is in Tianshan, but they don’t know the true face of the Holy Moon Sect. Once you join the Holy Moon Sect, you will be isolated from the world for the rest of your life.

The Tianshan Mountains are surrounded by snow-white mountains. As far as the eye can see, the sky and the earth are all white, with no other superfluous colors. Jiang Taohua followed her memory and came to the edge of a cliff where wind and snow were raging.

This place is surrounded by steep cliffs, raging winds, and flying snow, making it difficult for anyone to tell that this is the entrance to the Holy Moon Cult.

However, if someone with good eyesight and strong insight comes to see it, they may find a crack in the snow-covered cliff opposite that is big enough for a person to pass through.

The crack is a natural barrier, and through the crack you can reach the Holy Moon Sect.

After arriving at the entrance of the Holy Moon Sect, Jiang Taohua tapped her toes lightly, used her lightness skills to fly to the stone platform in front of the crack, and then entered the crack.

After she entered the crack, it was quickly covered by the wind and snow. It was barely visible in the wind and snow, making it difficult for people to discover that it was the entrance to the Holy Moon Cult.

Jiang Taohua entered the crack and walked all the way inside. Inside the crack, there was a luminous pearl embedded every two or three meters on the snow-white stone wall, which illuminated the passage very brightly. The further she walked inside, the wider the passage became.

When you reach the end of the passage, your view suddenly becomes wider.

Here is a valley surrounded by steep peaks on all sides. The valley is covered with green grass, rare birds and animals, strange rocks, clear springs, and various exotic flowers and plants.

Walking out of the valley, we came to the Poison Forest, where poisonous fog filled the air and various poisonous creatures appeared.

Jiang Taohua walked through the poisonous forest with a calm face. After walking out of the poisonous forest, a palace built with snow-white stones came into view.

Outside the palace stood many guards wearing the same colored clothes and holding swords. They were all Chen Qianchi's men.

Jiang Taohua didn't hide either, but walked over openly.
