Lady Lin’s First-ever Journey to Immortality-Chapter 527 - Conspiracy and Love (I)
Chapter 527 Conspiracy and Love (I)
White Fairy hasn’t said a word for a long time. Finally, she only takes away the most ordinary broken sword with her.
Lin Luoran thinks for a while and then digs a big hole to bury other destroyed flying swords underground. A real sword tomb is made.
There are many traces of fighting here, but no corpses as Lin Luoran said. Even if they were all swallowed by monsters, the site would not be so clean. If cultivators of the Zu Mountain school had buried the corpses, they would not leave the broken swords here… Is it because someone has destroyed all corpses? Or maybe the swordsmen who participated in the battle were still alive but something unexpected happened so they couldn’t take back their own flying swords…
In either case, the truth has disappeared in history. Lin Luoran may never know.
Bringing the broken flying sword that White Fairy values, they go on their journey again. White Fairy has calmed down and even spontaneously tells Lin Luoran her old history.
In the past, she had a Taoist partner whose surname was Ye. He was a once-in-a-century genius with single Taoist root of the Fire in the Ye family, Zu Mountain. It was in this secret land that they first met. At that time, he was just a Bearing Essence cultivator while she was still struggling in the Laying Foundation period. They were both juniors who followed their teachers to see the world.
The world of cultivation emphasizes respect for hierarchy and order. Zu Mountain was the top school at that time. Although White Fairy was a personal apprentice of Misty Peak, she was quite different from male cultivators of the Ye family in terms of identity and personal ability. If they hadn’t accidentally gone through thick and thin together in the secret land, the male cultivator Ye wouldn’t have noticed White Fairy who was in the Laying Foundation period.
“That was the first time we entered Lost Land…”
Lost Land opens once a hundred years. After they got to know each other, they had entered secret land together for several times. Something happened to the White Fairy in the third year of the reign of Emperor Zhouwu in the Tang Dynasty. Wu Mei’er from the Joy School took the opportunity of human emperor and went to the mortal world to become a female emperor. White Fairy’s personal ability was in the late Gathering Vitality period at the time. As for the male cultivator surnamed Ye, he was about to achieve Divinization!
There had been few cultivators of the Divinization period in the world of cultivation for many years. Of course, the male cultivator surnamed Ye has caught attractions from all kinds of people. The last opportunity for him was not easy to seize. Coincidentally, it was the third year of the reign of Emperor Zhouwu when the secret land appeared after a hundred years. Lost Land has never been explored, with tremendous danger and countless lucky chances in it.
The male cultivator surnamed Ye asked White Fairy to come to secret land. He made a promise to his Taoist partner who he has known for hundreds of years. If he failed in Divinization this time, he would make her his official Taoist partner. Even if he succeeded, he would still wait for her to enter the Divinization period. At that time, they could work together to break through the void and become immortal.
Facing White Fairy’s obsession for centuries, the male cultivator surnamed Ye, who had been devoted to becoming an immortal, finally made a decision to stop for her.
“The word ‘Bright’ is in his name, and ‘Snow’ in mine. The Sword of Bright Snow you got was originally a token of affection after he gathered vitality. He searched all over the South Sea for the Mermaid tears to refine the sword. ”
Lin Luoran suddenly realizes that the double-headed phoenix hairpin was originally a token of love for White Fairy and her Taoist partner. She was complacent when White Fairy showed up. However, she never thought that how could it be possible to make determined White Fairy in the late period of Gathering Vitality appear without items she valued, like a token of love.
White Fairy touches the broken sword and smiles, “Do you know how happy I was when I saw you falling down the abyss? At that time, I wanted to possess you. However, your qualification was so bad that I couldn’t do it…”
Lin Luoran rubs her nose and smirks. Though scheming against each other at the beginning, She and White Fairy are friends now. It’s best to talk it through.
White Fairy thinks of the reason why she gave up on Possession on Lin Luoran at the time. Lin Luoran’s poor qualification was surely one reason. The scene she saw when dealing with the monster bat was also a vital reason. Originally, she wanted to let Lin Luoran go and made use of her to leave secret land. In this way, she could practice Possession later on. However, after sleeping for many years, other cultivators on the earth all disappeared when she woke up. She had to give up the method of Possession.
“Putting our history aside, I have watched you enhancing your personal ability for hundreds of years. You have done one thing much better than me—you have gathered vitality in 300 years as a trash cultivator.”
The praise of White Fairy makes Lin Luoran flattered. Without sacred pearl, how can she gather vitality in three hundred years in the environment of the earth?
White Fairy seems to have read her mind, “The sacred pearl space is just a support. I said that you have done a good job. I mean you have never loved anyone when you enhance your personal ability… It is really a strange thing. Ordinary cultivators cut off their connection with the mortal world and then they can treat their relatives and friends indifferently. However, romantic relationship has always been a great obstacle. Throughout the ages, many masters have failed because of it. However, you are the only one who can’t let go of the mortal world but can abandon romantic relationship. Lin Luoran, have you ever really loved someone? ”
Lin Luoran is stunned without a word.
White Fairy points it out bluntly, and she starts to face the problem.
Has she ever really loved someone? She used to think that she loved Li Anping, which was the reason why she cried bitterly after being betrayed. However, three hundred years later, she thinks about it again. The so-called “pain” at that moment was just a kind of unreasonable emotion belonging to young people.
She was also attracted by the elegant young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses. After knowing that he was her good friend’s fiance, she became sober.
She noticed the admiration in the eyes of the younger generations and also the rich man’s son who she knew when she was still not so famous picking roses with dewdrops and staying in front of her door every day.
But why didn’t she feel deeply touched inside?
Did she lose the ability to fall in love? Or subconsciously, she has been waiting for the right person?
Liu Zheng used to be Baojia’s fiance. They also had a story of family interests. He is not the right one.
Mu Tiannan didn’t have the Taoist root at that time. A mortal will die in a hundred years. She can’t bear the pain of losing her lover, so he was not the right person, either.
Who is the one?
Lin Luoran has always known that she is emotionally sensible. But at this moment, White Fairy awakens her. She finally realizes that she is more than sensible. She is indifferent. However, she really cares about her relatives and friends… It is a problem that she has to solve by herself. Those who are closely involved cannot see clearly. Lin Luoran feels that a cloud has blinded her soul, making her unusually confused.
Seeing that Lin Luoran starts to think, White Fairy is worried that she may be thinking too much. In this way, her words can only have a counter effect. White Fairy quickly returns to the subject.
“Romantic relationship is a big problem. If you are not trapped in it, it may not be a bad thing for your personal ability enhancement. Taking me as an example… I was plotted back then. I got news from him and I was robbed and killed the moment I arrived the destination… It’s pity that I lost my memory. I can’t remember who ambushed me at that time. ”
White Fairy smiles bitterly, but Lin Luoran has understood the subtext.
White Fairy has lost her memory and couldn’t remember who ambushed her. She had the personal ability of late Gathering Vitality period. How many cultivators had the ability to beat her down and made her a remnant soul? The news was from cultivator Ye. If the person who ambushed her was the male cultivator almost Divinization, then it would make sense.
White Fairy must have also suspected that man surnamed Ye. Therefore, her smile is bitter when she tells the story. However, when White Fairy found the flying sword of the man surnamed Ye, she couldn’t hide her sadness. Lin Luoran shudders. If this is the great obstacle White Fairy talks about, she would rather never have.
Lin Luoran’s stubbornness and sluggishness make her look a little dazed at this moment. Seeing the way she looks, White Fairy relaxes a lot. She wants to investigate the case back then, but Lin Luoran is still thinking about the “game” of the double-headed snake. The two have their own concerns and go on their journey preoccupied by troubles.
When they pass by one place of the water on the sword, Lin Luoran inadvertently glances down. She is surprised to see several familiar hills and waterways. Her fingers tremble while making the Sword-riding Spell gesture. She almost falls off the flying sword.
Underwater palace! She and White Fairy have traveled around and accidentally arrive at this place! Lin Luoran feels happy and worried at the same time. She is happy because she has never seen this water before. Checking several other places, she almost knows where she is now—She finally finds the general direction of the exit.
She is also worried because she keeps avoiding this place. However, she still can’t get away with the female corpse in white in the underwater palace.
White Fairy suddenly opens her eyes. She looks at the surging river thoughtfully.
Lin Luoran feels inexplicably nervous in her heart.
White Fairy smiles at her, “Linny, why do I feel that you are weird after you enter secret land, especially here.”
Lin Luoran’s face looks bitter. White Fairy has survived in the world of cultivation as a Gathering Vitality cultivator after many battles. Compared with her, she is rather poor at concealing emotions.
“What the hell is it underwater? I feel something very familiar.”
White Fairy stares at the river and murmurs to herself, making Lin Luoran hesitate whether to advance or retreat at this moment.
…
Like Lin Luoran, Mu Tiannan is also in a difficult situation at this moment.
Finally, he sneaked out of the red rock district carefully. However, he was attacked by another monster. Mu Tiannan did not notice it and suffered a lot.
Mu Tiannan has been injured a lot when he finds the high magnetic mountain under the instructions of the old monster.
Wiping off the blood from the corner of his mouth, Mu Tiannan looks at the magnetic mountain and then stares at the bat ring for a long time, “Old monster, you helped me prolong my life. I collected jade plates for you. When it is over, the deal between us is also over, right?”
The old monster hasn’t answered yet and the bat ring flashes red. A slightly younger voice shows its unwillingness, “Mu Tiannan, how can you prolong your life to this day without this ring? Don’t forget that you have promised me to kill her… ”
Mu Tiannan can’t help but sneer. These barbarians are really stupid. He has done everything possible to live to this day just for the obsession in his heart. Surviving to kill her? Is he crazy?
However, everything is about to end. Mu Tiannan told himself to be patient.
The young voice hasn’t received a response after a long time. It can’t help but feel annoyed. The severe pain comes from Mu Tiannan’s finger. He clutches his finger wearing the ring. This pain spreads from the finger to his whole body, and it penetrates his bone marrow and affects his antennal nerve. He wants to cut off his hand wearing the ring—but he just can’t!
The two beings in the ring do not often torture him in this way in more than three hundred years. He knows it because he remembers each pain for a long time. They won’t let him go until he follows their order, whether he is willing or not.
When Mu Tiannan kneels on one knee and wishes to die immediately, another voice comes from the bat ring, “Well, the foreign barbarian has always been impatient. Do our business first!”
With a snort, the young voice stops unwillingly and temporarily.
Mu Tiannan kneels on the ground and gasps. After the pain disappears, he finally stands up and walks into a cave in the magnetic mountain.
Being disturbed, a group of vampire bats fly out like a dark cloud. They pass over his head and disappear in the dense forest.
