Yunling Town.

Caifeng Street.

Xue Wen stood in front of a spiritual vein fairy palace.

There are three words written on the gate - Qin He Garden.

Xue Wen raised his hand and knocked on the door. After waiting for a moment, the door opened, revealing a wrinkled face. Seeing Xue Wen, the old man was slightly startled and asked politely:

"My fellow Taoist, what can I do for you?"

Xue Wen paused and scratched his head: "Qiu Zhihe asked me to find Fang Xue."

The old man was stunned for a moment, and said quickly: "It turned out that it was Brother Qin's wife who asked you to come. Please come in!"

"Daoyou Qin's wife?"

Xue Wen's face changed slightly, but he held back his anger and followed the old man into the manor. After entering, he saw a meadow, and walking forward he saw a small bridge.

There is a garden on the left side of the bridge and a pond on the right side.

The pond is full of lotus flowers in full bloom, with a faint fragrance.

Xue Wen was stunned and stared blankly at the lotus flowers in the pond.

"It is indeed where the Saint lives."

Five days ago, following Qiu Zhihe's instructions, he came to Yunling Town, found the Temple of the Goddess, and met the three monks who sold meat to build the temple.

He also asked the three to spread the news of Shi Shuhong and Wei Shouyuan's death.

Although the cultivation of these three people was not good, they were indeed good at doing these little tricks. However, within four or five days, the news that the two great elders of Zhenyang Sect had died had spread throughout Dongxiu.

Having completed the task assigned by the Saint, Xue Wen should be very happy.

But I heard something unbelievable from the mouths of Zhao, Qian and Sun: the saint actually has a husband!

Xue Wen naturally didn't believe it and wanted to go back to Nanmo to find the Saint to find out the truth.

But yesterday he received a message from his younger brother Xue Wu, saying that the Saint had ordered him to wait in Yunling Town, and that the Saint would send someone over for him to take care of.

And asked him to find a female cultivator named Fang Xue, who was the disciple of the saint.

In terms of seniority, Xue Wen is her uncle.

At that moment, Xue Wen had to suppress his depression and came to Qin He Garden according to the saint's instructions.

Just looking at the name of this immortal palace, Xue Wen felt it was a bit strange.

Qin Heyuan, the word "He", could it be that it refers to the saint?

What about the character “Qin”?

Xue Wen remembered what the old man had just said about "Fellow Daoist Qin's wife", and his face suddenly became even gloomier.

Following the old man past the lotus pond, we came to a house and heard bursts of children's noise from afar.

Suddenly a little girl ran over and bumped into Xue Wen's legs. She fell to the ground with a cry. When she looked up, she saw that Xue Wen had a rough and gloomy face. The little girl's mouth pursed and she started crying.

"Wow monster, so scary, wuwuwu!"

"..." Xue Wen's face was full of black lines, and he said angrily: "Why am I a monster?"

The little girl cried even louder: "Sister Xue, help me! The monster wants to eat me!"

At this time, a young girl wearing a snow-white skirt and with long hair like a waterfall, who looked a little immature, came over, picked up the little girl and comforted her:

"Don't be afraid, this uncle is not a monster."

The little girl finally stopped crying and looked at Xue Wen weakly: "But... he is so ugly."

“…”

Xue Wen's eyes widened and he said nonsense: "How am I ugly? The Saint even praised me for being handsome!"

The girl burst out laughing. At this time, a group of children ran over and saw Xue Wen. They all exclaimed "The monster is coming!" and then dispersed.

The girl put the little girl down and said to the old man, "Daddy, take care of the children."

The old man nodded, bowed to Xue Wen, and left with the little girl.

The girl bowed respectfully to Xue Wen and said, "Fang Xue greets Uncle Master Xue."

The girl was Fang Xue. She received a message from Qiu Zhihe yesterday and knew that Xue Wen would come to see her today.

In fact, Qiu Zhihe had never revealed her true identity, but Fang Xue had already guessed who she was. It was just that the master, disciple and sister both knew it and did not say it out loud.

That's why Fang Xue called Xue Wen "uncle-master" when she read Qiu Zhihe's message saying that Xue Wen was a fellow disciple who grew up with her.

Xue Wen laughed out loud: "The Saint actually accepted a disciple, this is cause for celebration!"

He proudly took out a bunch of rare treasures from his arms and stuffed them into Fang Xue's pockets: "Junior niece, this is a meeting gift, hahaha!"

Fang Xue was not polite. She bowed to thank him and accepted it readily.

Xue Wen was very impressed by her appearance, and asked Fang Xue and Qiu Zhihe how they met, laughing.

Fang Xue then told what happened after Qiu Zhihe came to Yunling Town.

Xue Wen felt distressed when he heard this, and sighed: "It turns out that the Saint's cultivation has fallen to the Qi training stage. How difficult it must have been for her to come here alone!"

Fang Xue said: "Master, don't worry. Uncle Qin treats Sister Qiu very well. Sister Qiu has never suffered any hardship."

"Uncle Qin?" Xue Wen frowned and whispered:

"Who is this Uncle Qin?"

Fang Xue blinked in confusion: "Uncle Qin is Sister Qiu's husband. They have a very good relationship. Sister Qiu said that if it weren't for Uncle Qin, her cultivation would not have recovered so quickly."

"The Saint's husband?!"

Xue Wen's eyes widened and he stared at Fang Xue:

"Impossible! How could the Saint have a husband?! Yes, the Saint must have found someone to fake a marriage to cover up her identity. That must be it!"

At this time, a loud cry sounded in the sky. Fang Xue looked up with a look of joy on her face:

"Junior sister is here!"

In addition to saying that Xue Wen would come, Qiu Zhihe's message also said that the phoenix bird would carry Fang Xue's junior sister to find her.

Xue Wen also raised his head and saw the phoenix flapping its golden wings in the sky. He had seen this beast on Qinglian Mountain. At that time, the saint was sitting on the back of the phoenix with the male cultivator named He Zhiqiu.

The two seemed to be quite close.

No, since the saint is in Yunling Town, she can find a puppet to pretend to marry in order to conceal her identity.

Naturally, he had to find a male disciple to serve as a cover in Zhenyang Sect.

That makes sense.

Xue Wen thought so in his heart and felt relieved immediately.

"Wow, what is that?!"

"What a big bird! It's golden!"

"This seems to be... the legendary Phoenix Beast?!"

"Could it be that the leader of Feiyun Sect is here in person? Oh my God!"

Amid the exclamations of the residents of Yunling Town, the phoenix landed in Qinhe Garden, right in front of Fang Xue and Xue Wen.

Sitting on her back was a girl with bright looks and lively eyes.

The girl climbed down from the phoenix's back and immediately knelt in front of Fang Xue and Xue Wen:

"Liu Xiaotang meets Senior Sister and Uncle Master!"

After entering the jurisdiction of Zhenyang Sect, Qiu Zhihe asked the Phoenix Bird to carry Liu Xiaotang to Yunling Town alone.

After listening to Qiu Zhihe's description of the situation, Liu Xiaotang was also alert when she saw Fang Xue and Xue Wen. She immediately knelt down respectfully and saluted.

"Junior sister, please stand up!" Fang Xue quickly helped her up, looked her up and down, and a gentle smile appeared on her face:

"Sister Qiu said she found a beautiful junior sister for me, and it turned out to be true."

Liu Xiaotang looked terrified: "Senior sister is the real beauty."

Xue Wen beside her ignored her and asked the Phoenix:

"You beast, let me ask you, where is the Saint?"
