The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 299 - 298: The Snipe and the Clam Grapple, the Fisher Gains (The Sixth Update 5/25)
Three women fought overtly and covertly, driving other women away from Lin Yun’s side. Lin Yun noticed these little details and felt a tingling on his scalp.
Fortunately, they were unaware of each other’s progress and probably too embarrassed to say it outright. In that case, I still have a slim chance.
Lin Yun then looked into Dongfang Hongyue’s eyes, offering an apologetic gaze that served as consolation for not having been closer to her.
Afterward, he revealed the Sky-splitter and said, "This spear is called Qiaobian, and the Snow Maiden’s Divine Artifact is called Fulong. They are a pair of Divine Weapons."
Lin Yun slowly recounted how he had gone up the mountain to train and how he had taken the wrong path, stumbled upon the Northern Spear King’s legacy, and obtained these two Divine Weapons.
"So, you’re saying that the Snow Maiden’s Divine Weapon was also procured by you?"
The three women looked at Lin Yun, their gazes quite peculiar.
Dongfang Hongyue thought about how she had never unearthed any treasures, yet here was Lin Yun, only bestowing treasures on other women, and not her! The only thing he gave her was a box that couldn’t even be opened and was now gathering dust in the storeroom.
The Flower Fairy thought of her own Sky-splitter, which she had obtained with Lin Yun, and could only admire Lin Yun’s luck.
Getting lost only to stumble upon a Divine Weapon, impressive!
Lin Yu, on the other hand, was happy for his gains, but upon learning that the Snow Maiden’s Divine Weapon had so many variations, she too felt somewhat uneasy.
"What should we do next?"
The women all looked to Lin Yun, seemingly regarding him as the head of the household.
"I’m thinking that we should try to find the legacy site within Mountain and Sea Pass as soon as possible, open it first, take the legacy, and then give up on Mountain and Sea Pass."
Lin Yun’s capture was also for this plan.
He had a Moon Water Spirit Pearl within him, which had reacted to the Moon God’s Relic in the past, and now that he was at Mountain and Sea Pass, perhaps he could use that Moon Water Spirit Pearl as a guiding tool.
Just as he was about to take out the Moon Water Spirit Pearl to prove the feasibility of his plan, Dongfang Hongyue readily accepted his suggestion without a second thought.
"I think this idea is good."
"I think so too."
The Flower Fairy concurred.
Lin Yun: "..."
Don’t you all consider the possibility that I might not find it?
Including Lin Yu, they all believed Lin Yun had astonishing fortune. This method sounded incredibly unreliable. A legacy site that had been sealed for who knows how long? And you think you can just happen upon treasure?
However, this improbable option garnered unanimous approval.
"We should not delay. We have only one day’s time, let’s set out now!"
Dongfang Hongyue was ready to depart with Lin Yun, but the Flower Fairy immediately objected, "I should handle this matter. My cultivation level is low, and I’m not of much help defending the city."
Dongfang Hongyue countered, "You were brought here to use your Divine Artifact to counter the opponent’s Divine Artifacts. What’s the point of having you here if you’re not present?"
"Alright, neither of you are convinced by the other, so let me do it!"
The Flower Fairy: "..."
Dongfang Hongyue: "..."
While the snipe and clam grappled, the fisherman reaped the benefit.
The Flower Fairy glared at Dongfang Hongyue, but eventually chose her sister. After all, she’s still a sister! How bad could she possibly be?
Dongfang Hongyue became even more assured. What ill intentions could Lin Yu have?
Since only one person would accompany Lin Yun, then let it be Lin Yu!
Thus, the Flower Fairy and Dongfang Hongyue stayed to defend the city, while Lin Yu took Lin Yun to stroll around the city.
Without the Flower Fairy and Dongfang Hongyue watching over them, Lin Yun immediately relaxed.
"Yu’er, you’ve lost weight since I last saw you."
Lin Yu still felt a bit shy about this nickname, but she was learning to slowly accept it.
"You’ve gotten a lot stronger, has the Snow Maiden been treating you well? You really have a knack for deceiving women."
Lin Yu was flirting with him, but her words also served as a warning to Lin Yun.
Don’t go flirting around just because you’re handsome.
The Flower Fairy is one thing, but what’s the deal with Dongfang Hongyue!
And now a Snow Maiden? Can you even stay put in this house?
Lin Yun found it difficult to respond to this. He couldn’t deny his skills in deceiving women were indeed formidable, and sometimes, he just couldn’t help himself.
Sigh...
My life is destined to walk hand in hand with sin.
"If I could, I wouldn’t want to deceive her."
Lin Yun’s voice carried a hint of sadness, which made Lin Yu feel somewhat guilty inside. She had been consumed by jealousy and had failed to consider that Lin Yun went undercover to the grassland, exploiting a girl’s trust, just to protect her.
Lin Yun was a man of loyalty and integrity; using someone’s good feelings like this must have been tough on him!
Lin Yu timidly reached out her hand, gently stroking Lin Yun’s forehead as she said, "I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said that." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"It’s okay, I know you’re a little jealous pot."
Lin Yun chuckled softly, showing no hints of blame, and just took the opportunity to grasp her hand.
This tender and indulgent behavior warmed Lin Yu’s heart.
"I am not a jealous pot."
She rebutted softly, though feeling that her words lacked conviction, she added, "Little Flower is the jealous pot."
Lin Yun: "..."
The Flower Fairy truly has a good sister.
"She’s the big jealous pot, you’re the little jealous pot."
Lin Yun certified them, and Lin Yu snorted with faux arrogance, yet didn’t retort.
Their playful bickering was a kind of pleasure in itself, but the main task was still to find the inheritance and treasures of Mountain and Sea Pass.
Lin Yun took out the Moon Water Spirit Pearl from the Chaos Pearl, without the shielding of the Chaos Pearl, the Moon Water Spirit Pearl began to react within Lin Yun’s Dantian.
It was like it had turned on navigation, guiding Lin Yun in different directions, and he soon found himself running to the east of the city with Lin Yu, then the navigation led them south, then west, and finally north.
Lin Yun was not pleased at that moment.
What kind of crappy navigation is this? Making me go round in circles?
Despite his complaints, Lin Yun still took the task seriously and observed all the four city gates.
The architecture of Mountain and Sea Pass was very ancient. Among all cities, Mountain and Sea Pass had the most ancient buildings preserved. This was because Mountain and Sea Pass seldom experienced wars. Located in a remote area, its only advantage was its antiquity. Mostly mortals resided there, and no Sect established a presence nearby.
As for the Demon Sect members who caused trouble here, they invariably met with untimely deaths.
Over time, Mountain and Sea Pass had become a mysterious place.
Many people knew there were secrets and mysteries hidden in Mountain and Sea Pass, but no one knew exactly what they were.
And so, Mountain and Sea Pass had remained.
East, south, west, north; the four city gates didn’t seem to have anything special about them.
The Moon Water Spirit Pearl inside Lin Yun continued to navigate him. What exactly did this mean?
Lin Yun decided to calm down and think.
According to the Grand Shaman, this was a place of inheritance.
As for an inheritance, naturally, it meant leaving it to someone worthy.
But over the years, many people of high potential had come to Mountain and Sea Pass, so in addition to potential, the inheritance of Mountain and Sea Pass must value fate more, or perhaps, a certain mysterious bloodline.
At that moment, Lin Yun’s imagination ran wild as he began to weave a story.
"I’m wondering if the person who left this inheritance in Mountain and Sea Pass actually wanted their descendant to unlock it, but their descendant isn’t on this continent. Hmm, maybe they went out to sea, and one day, they will return to this land to unlock this inheritance?"
