However, the Imperial Preceptor lives far away in Zishan and is usually in a semi-secluded state, so his reputation is inferior to that of the Chancellor.
But no true master in the world dares to ignore him, so Xie Daoyun doesn't think anyone can set up any traps or formations in Zishan.
After a long silence within the stone gate, Yan Xiangu's voice rang out again: "Don't trust anyone easily. Even those close to you may not be reliable, let alone a complete stranger."
Xie Daoyun was startled: "Could it be that something has happened to the Imperial Preceptor?"
If this news gets out, it will be a huge shock.
"That's not what I meant, it's just better to be safe than sorry," Yan Xiangu said slowly.
Xie Daoyun's mind was filled with too many possibilities, and she could not calm down for a long time: "Master, if there is really a problem on the side of the Imperial Preceptor, I am afraid that even if I get to the scene, I will not be able to tell the truth due to my low ability."
Although she considered herself to have good aptitude and her skills in talisman formations had improved rapidly during this period, she was still like a firefly compared to the Imperial Preceptor.
“You don’t need to belittle yourself. Just do what I taught you the other day, and you’ll naturally be able to tell whether there are any traps in Zishan,” Yan Xiangu comforted him.
Hearing her teacher say that, Xie Daoyun finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'm relieved."
At the same time, I felt a little melancholy. I was going to Zishan soon, and I probably wouldn't be able to see Brother Zu for a while...
The thought startled her. Xie Daoyun, what's wrong with you? Haven't you seen enough from your brother over the years? A woman who is too proactive is often not cherished.
However, she immediately became conflicted. Brother Zu had so many outstanding female companions around him, and if she didn't take the initiative, she might...
"You've been feeling a bit unsettled lately. Is it because of that man today?" Yan Xiangu's voice suddenly rang out.
"No way!" Xie Daoyun immediately denied, then said with a mix of embarrassment and annoyance, "Teacher, why are you so gossipy?"
"Haha, even the teacher was young once. That Zuan is quite a character..." Sensing that the disciples outside the sect seemed about to erupt, Yan Xiangu said, "Since there's no one, let's set off today. As the saying goes, reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. I believe this trip will allow your cultivation to reach a higher level."
"Yes!" Xie Daoyun also became serious when she heard her teacher talk about cultivation.
She quickly embarked on her journey to Zishan alone. Little did she know that just three days after leaving the capital, the imperial court issued an order: a fire had recently broken out at the Zhengyang Temple in Zishan, damaging many buildings. Given the age of the buildings in Zishan, Marquis Shen Zu'an was ordered to lead the Imperial Guards and a group of skilled craftsmen to repair them, thus demonstrating the imperial court's benevolence.
