Chapter 76 A Sword's Frost Chills Across Fourteen Provinces 9
Yao Ying walked at the front, followed by Luo Shu, and then the disciples of the Juque Sword Sect. They were all tall and slender, and their Taoist robes made them look even more like immortals. They were handsome and had an extraordinary aura.
The Giant Sword Sect was not the first to arrive; several sects were already guarding the entrance to the secret realm, including disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect and many independent cultivators.
The Giant Sword Sect is one of the three major sects in the world, and it has the potential to become the top sect. So naturally, it can't rush over here first, otherwise it wouldn't have the prestige of a major sect.
However, we can't arrive too late, otherwise outsiders will think that our Juque Sword Sect is putting on airs. This is all about human relationships and customs, and even the cultivation world is not immune to them.
When the others saw that the Giant Sword Sect had arrived, they were secretly amazed. This was an astonishing feat. They had even mobilized such a large flying boat. Looking at these disciples, each of them had an extraordinary aura, and most of them were at the peak of the Golden Core stage. The leader was even a Nascent Soul elder. As expected of the Giant Sword Sect, they were truly impressive!
Leaving aside the astonishment of the rogue cultivators, Yao Yin exchanged a few pleasantries with the elder of the Liuyun Sect. That elder was the same one who had visited the Sword Pavilion last time. He recognized Wen Baiyun and Qin Fang from the Juque Sword Sect. These rising stars were quite famous in the cultivation world.
However, he had never seen the person following behind Yao Yin before. Yao Yin naturally understood what the elder was looking at, and said to the elder, "This is my Uncle Po Yue's new disciple, named Luo Shu. Come, Junior Sister Luo Shu, you can call this Senior Brother Zhang."
Elder Zhang's expression was not good at the moment. Anyone would probably not be happy to see a young girl calling a man who was hundreds of years older than her "senior brother".
However, this is the direct disciple of the Sword Master Po Yue, so he is indeed of the same generation as them. He is the Sword Master Po Yue!
Luo Shu obediently called out "Senior Brother Zhang," which made the Liuyun Sect elder's teeth ache a little.
Suddenly, a bald man approached from the side. He was Master Wuxiang of the Zen sect. He and Yao Yin were of the same generation, but he was usually called Wuxiang. Luo Shu naturally called him "Master Wuxiang". This time, he got the better of him.
Wu Xiang and his followers practice Zen Buddhism. Every time the Xiaotangshan Secret Realm opens, they send people in to perform rituals to help the souls of the dead. They also cultivate merit. While not all Buddhist practitioners can be considered good people, they are not the kind of despicable individuals who resort to such strange tricks.
At this moment, Master Wuxiang said with a smile, "Young friend, I see that your Daoist heart is perfect and you are free from worldly burdens. You are a good candidate for cultivating Buddhism."
Upon hearing this, Yao Yin narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Master Wuxiang is planning to snatch someone from my Uncle Poyue. I'll have to tell him about it when I get back."
Wu Xiang's expression changed, and he said very seriously, "No, no, I am just marveling at how lucky Po Yue Sword Venerable is to have such a good disciple with a pure heart."
It was strange that these people were gathered together with Luo Shu. They seemed out of place at first glance, but upon closer inspection, they seemed quite harmonious. Luo Shu's temperament blended perfectly into their group.
A handsome young monk sneaked into the Juque Sword Sect's group and pulled Miao Qiqi aside, asking, "Is that masked girl also a disciple of your Juque Sword Sect? I've never seen her before."
This young monk is also a newly appointed Buddhist disciple of the Zen sect. He is highly proficient in Buddhist teachings and has now reached the Nascent Soul stage. He met Miao Qiqi by chance and they have become quite close.
Miao Qiqi bit her lip, somewhat conflicted, and said, "That was originally my senior sister. Later, she left Qingyun Peak, and then..."
Her words were interrupted by Wen Baiyun. Miao Qiqi stared blankly at Wen Baiyun's hand on her shoulder, somewhat unable to come to her senses. She felt that her senior brother seemed to have changed, and was not as close to her as before.
Then Wen Baiyun said gently, "Buddha's disciple, why don't you go and ask Senior Wuxiang yourself?"
Miao Kong wasn't angry. He chatted with Wen Baiyun for a bit with a smile before taking his leave and returning to the Zen sect.
When he turned around, his smile deepened. Miao Qiqi's luck seemed to have changed. He had seen the girl's overwhelming fortune before, but now she was only slightly luckier than ordinary cultivators.
Interesting, interesting, really interesting!
Wen Baiyun didn't say much to Miao Qiqi, only saying, "Don't talk too much about sect matters with outsiders," before going to the side.
Miao Qiqi suddenly felt a sense of panic. Her senior brother was completely different from before. He was no longer the gentle senior brother who always considered her needs and was meticulous in everything he did.
A chill ran down her spine. Without her senior brother's protection, would she be able to survive this trip to Xiaotangshan?
Suddenly, the sound of string and wind instruments drifted from afar. The music was beautiful, and one could faintly hear a woman's giggles. Along with the sound, a fragrant breeze wafted by, intoxicating the senses.
Yao Yin's expression changed slightly; the Joyful Gate had arrived.
The Hehuan Sect, to put it simply, is a sect that practices dual cultivation.
Luo Shu was not surprised at all. Yin and Yang harmony and dual cultivation were not evil or crooked paths. They were legitimate practices of the mutual generation of Yin and Yang. It was just that most people in the world were ignorant and inevitably viewed people with prejudice.
Then a carriage was seen being pulled by a fox demon with snow-white fur. The carriage was exquisite, inlaid with glass and gemstones, which reflected various colors of light in the sunlight. When the carriage door opened, two maid-like people came out first.
Their clothes were thin, revealing glimpses of red bodices underneath. They were charming and graceful. Then, three men and two women came down from inside, all with beautiful faces and captivating charm in every gesture.
The two female cultivators, with their snow-white thighs exposed and dressed in gorgeous attire, and the male cultivator, with his well-defined chest and unrestrained demeanor, had already caused some of the young sword cultivator disciples to blush upon their arrival.
They were with swords every day and had never seen such a sensual scene before. They all lowered their heads and dared not look any further.
Miao Qiqi, however, stared intently at the Hehuan Sect member, her face flushed with embarrassment, her gaze unwavering. The young girl's delicate demeanor was undeniably adorable.
Originally, the young sect leader of the Hehuan Sect, who was one of the three male cultivators, would have been deeply attracted to Miao Qiqi and become her devoted follower.
However, Miao Qiqi was not the only one staring at them; Luo Shu also looked at them calmly, as if the Hehuan Sect was no different from anyone else.
She wore a mask, obscuring her expression, but her eyes were so warm; in her eyes, all things were equal.
The young sect leader of the Hehuan Sect, Nangong Quexie, stared intently at Luo Shu, their eyes meeting across the crowd.
At that moment, even the wind stopped.
A moment later, Nangong Quexie was still looking this way, but Luo Shu looked away, and the people from Hehuan Palace were all shocked.
Just now, their young sect leader looked at Luo Shu and used their Hehuan Palace's pupil technique. This pupil technique has a bewitching effect, even effective against peak Nascent Soul cultivators. It can arouse the deepest desires in people's hearts and stir up their love.
As it turned out, the masked woman quietly and subtly shifted her gaze, completely unaffected by the allure of the pupil technique. Impossible, everyone has desires; she must be carrying some kind of magical artifact.
Putting aside the astonishment of the Hehuan Sect members, Miao Qiqi looked at the Hehuan Sect members with some excitement. They were truly genuine people, unrestrained yet not annoying. She really wanted to make friends with them!
She secretly resolved that once she entered the secret realm, she would definitely build a good relationship with them.
More and more people are arriving, and the restrictions on the secret realm are slowly loosening. The Xiaotangshan Secret Realm is about to open!
