Fellow Daoist! That scoundrel has written a new book again.

Chapter 335 Progress is going well

Xu San'er quietly crept up to Zhu Wuyao's side, set up a barrier, and whispered:

"Sister Zhu, is it inevitable that our Star-Picking Tower will make enemies with the Howling Sky Sect?"

He had long ago noticed the flaws in the structure of the Xiaotian Sect.

I was just called over by Senior Sister Gu, and together with everyone I learned about He Yiqi's situation, which confirmed my suspicions.

Zhu Wuyao nodded hesitantly.

It seems that this is the case at present?

"That's good!

"I've figured it out. Every time you win a bet with those black jade dice, you get a divination result. Last time, I used the challenge to calculate that I wish you would become my personal disciple!"

"This Xiaotian Sect is indeed an opportunity."

Zhu Wuyao hesitated slightly.

If things had unfolded normally, she might have actually fulfilled the divination, but in the Purple Qi Mystic Realm, she chose the path of not becoming a direct disciple.

"If your dice do not correspond to the divination, will there be any danger?"

Xu San'er paused for a moment, then asked in a surprised tone:

"Has something changed regarding the matter of the personal disciple?!"

The matter of the purple aura is "unspeakable," Zhu Wuyao thought for a moment and said:

"Since it was predetermined by the divination, it means that the right time, the right place, and the right people will all push me to become a direct disciple. This was the route that was originally planned."

"Where exactly the variable will appear is still unknown."

"If the die does not correspond to the divination and will bring you harm, we should make plans in advance, just in case."

Xu San'er was somewhat bewildered.

In his view, only things that are destined to happen become "divination results".

This is also the understanding of most divination practitioners—

The hexagrams are meant to be understood, not altered.

He shook his head and said, "I really have no experience with this..."

Zhu Wuyao looked up at Shen Xun on the battlefield.

Since the purple aura split and transformed, Shen Xun, who had strayed from his original path, seems to have embarked on his own path once again.

This battle really put him on a big show.

She took the wooden sculpture out of her storage bag and examined it carefully in her hands.

The damaged parts were barely repaired.

I wonder when I will encounter the opportunity within the Purple Qi Mystic Realm.

This feeling of passively waiting was somewhat unpleasant. Thinking of the man in black, Zhu Wuyao felt that the appearance of this thing was to lure her into continuing her investigation.

Ha, if we investigate further, we might fall into a trap.

Now, all we can do is wait for our consciousness to recover and then investigate on our own.

I just put the wood carving away.

The exchange between disciples was nearing its end, and the real show was about to begin.

Zhu Wuyao concealed himself inconspicuously and saw the slightly unsteady, tattered-clothed "He Yiqi" appear.

This is Huaying Ting in disguise.

Not everyone has met Senior Sister He Yiqi.

However, one of their fellow disciples immediately recognized the visitor's identity—

"This is... Senior Sister He Yiqi!"

"is her!"

"How could it appear here?!"

Zhu Wuyao had been hiding in the shadows, observing whose expression in the Xiaotian Sect was unusual. Sure enough, one of the elders' expressions changed instantly, as if he was extremely surprised, but he quickly concealed it.

Having memorized the person, her gaze immediately shifted to the Star-Picking Tower.

The place is in complete chaos.

Gu Yiguan walked steadily forward, making it seem as if he was about to transfer spiritual energy to heal him.

Hua Yingting, who was playing He Yiqi, also "coincidentally" fell into a coma.

The Thousand Faces can change not only the appearance but also the expression. At this moment, it is as if He Yiqi, whose name is only known but whose person has never been seen, has truly jumped out of the painting and walked in front of everyone.

It was as if the one who had been unconscious during the two meetings was the seriously injured He Yiqi himself.

Xiaotian Sect was also quite surprised and asked:

"Who is this person? What brings them here all of a sudden?"

Inside the Star-Picking Tower, someone spoke with a slightly unfriendly tone, convinced that the Howling Sky Sect was crying wolf, and immediately said coldly:

"Who is this person? Doesn't your Xiaotian Sect know?"

Looking at this scene before me—

I felt a chill in my heart for no reason, even though I was not invited.

Before he could think it through, he saw that all the disciples of the Star-Picking Tower were somewhat surprised and uncertain, as if they all felt a thorn in their side.

...It seems that Song Kezi is increasing everyone's sense of crisis.

This incident occurred near the end, and the exchange between the disciples of the two sects today ended somewhat hastily.

"He Yiqi" has been protected.

However, as a key participant in the plan, Zhu Wuyao was able to meet her without any hindrance.

He saw Hua Yingting lying on the bed.

At this moment, she was no different from He Yiqi, whose breath was disordered and whose expression was aloof.

This caused Zhu Wuyao, who had rushed over, to pause slightly, feeling a strange sense of unfamiliarity. He couldn't even tell whether the person lying there was Hua Yingting or He Yiqi.

This feeling made Zhu Wuyao feel somewhat awkward.

He Yiqi, lying in bed, smiled and called out:

"Ah Yao, what brings you here so soon?"

Zhu Wuyao suddenly came to her senses.

She sat by the bed, thought about the whole thing carefully, and felt that something was subtly amiss. She hesitated slightly before saying:

"I almost didn't realize that you were impersonating He Yiqi because you had dreamed about her."

"Since a barrier has been set up here, why don't we take turns playing the roles?"

Hua Yingting sensed the worry in Zhu Wuyao's words.

What are you worried about?

Zhu Wuyao lowered his gaze.

She didn't know what she was worried about. Perhaps it was because the idea came from Song Kezi, so she couldn't help but be a little wary.

Moreover—is the worst-case scenario that Song Kezi mentioned really the so-called ambush and killing of the Xiaotian Sect elder?

Zhu Wuyao smiled and said, half-jokingly:

"But then I thought of another plan."

"Since Senior Sister He Yiqi has never shown herself, then now, you are the real He Yiqi. We will use you as bait to lure Xiaotian Sect into making a move."

What do you think of this idea?

The fake play is really done.

That's one way.

Did Song Kezi really not expect this?

Before the two could continue speaking, Gu Yiguan's voice came from beside them—

"What are you thinking about?"

“She’s from Moon Shadow Pavilion. If anything goes wrong in my Star Picking Tower, Zhao Hua Niang will definitely come to demand an explanation.”

"To offend such an enemy as the Star-Picking Tower for the sake of the Howling Sky Sect is not worth it."

Hearing what Senior Sister Gu said, Zhu Wuyao breathed a sigh of relief.

Right.

Even if there were some conspiracy, they wouldn't have targeted Hua Yingting.

"Senior Sister Gu, I still feel like something's not quite right."

As soon as Zhu Wuyao finished speaking, Shen Anzhi walked over and said:

“There is an elder in the Xiaotian Sect whose causal lines seem to be somewhat abnormal.”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Wuyao's mind stirred slightly.

Thinking of the strange expression on the face of the Xiaotian Sect elder when "He Yiqi" appeared, she asked:

"Is that the elder in the purple robe who looks to be in his forties?"

Shen Anzhi nodded.

It really is...

It seemed she had been overthinking things. Zhu Wuyao was relieved and was about to ask Senior Sister Gu when they would go to track them down when she heard the "Gu Yiguan" in front of her say:

"This is the person I am tracking."

"What is before you is merely an incarnation, used to conceal its presence from view."

The progress is going so smoothly?
