The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 341 - 330: Picking Up a Jiang Chenyu

The small boat traveled through the sea, and had their cultivation level not been profound, a single wave would have long swept the boat away.

But Lin Yun and Snow Maiden’s cultivation levels were both very high, so even though it was a small boat, they could still skim across the waves.

Still, after drifting at sea for two days, they had yet to catch sight of Pearl Island.

The direction was correct, so it must have been a matter of speed.

Now and then, the two would playfully dive into the sea, frolicking like a pair of mandarin ducks, which naturally meant they couldn’t make quick progress.

But neither of them was in a hurry to get anywhere; they were quite content with the journey.

However, Snow Maiden had been teased mercilessly and now really didn’t want to play in the water anymore.

When she got into the water to play, Lin Yun would play...

"Hmph."

Snow Maiden now looked at Lin Yun with a touch of shy annoyance in her eyes.

Although she didn’t refuse closeness with Lin Yun, he was too bullying!

As for exactly how he bullied her, that need not be said in detail. Suffice to say, she was currently throwing a little tantrum.

Lin Yun just found her cute and adorable. Whether it was her silly or annoyed expression, it all made one want to tease her.

"It won’t be long before we reach Haizhou. Once we’re there, let’s go into the city together and walk around!"

Snow Maiden: "..."

"How about I buy you a few new clothes as an apology?"

Lin Yun seriously apologized, because in his excitement, he had torn Snow Maiden’s clothes, which was why she was angry.

This is because the clothes Snow Maiden usually wore couldn’t be torn, but this time, to fit in, she wore mundane clothing. Lin Yun was also used to the embarrassment of not being able to tear clothes, so this time, he really...

In any case, Lin Yun was very happy; Snow Maiden’s skin was just too white, dazzlingly so.

"Anyway, you’re not allowed to tear my clothes again, or I really won’t pay you any attention!"

"Okay, I promise."

Snow Maiden easily forgave Lin Yun. Although she no longer played in the water, she still liked to watch the sea. She and Lin Yun sat at the prow of the boat, lifting up the hem of her skirt and dipping her bare feet into the water, feeling very happy.

Lin Yun looked at those tender and shapely legs, really wanting to touch them playfully, but he dared not. He could only hug Snow Maiden and enjoy the seascape with her.

"Hey, what’s that over there?"

Lin Yun followed the pointer of Snow Maiden’s finger and looked out. His vision was better and could see farther, immediately making out that it was a corpse.

"A dead body, don’t look."

Having floated up, the body must be thoroughly dead, probably even reeking. No point in helping, move on.

"Huh? She seems to be glowing?"

"That might be some treasure. I’ll go take a look."

Snow Maiden couldn’t see very clearly either, and during the daytime at sea, it might not actually be glowing.

But since there was a chance it might be a treasure, Lin Yun didn’t mind taking the effort to check it out.

Only when Lin Yun flew over did he realize that the glow was actually from the woman’s skin, which, wet and under the sun’s rays, was reflecting light.

The woman was lying on her back and appeared to have died.

Her white dress was ripped and tattered, exposing a lot of skin.

It seemed she hadn’t been dead for long. Lin Yun had thought there might be some treasure, so he had come over, but now that he was here, it must be fate, so he might as well take care of her body.

Lin Yun originally thought to cremate her with a burst of fire but then decided to pull her up instead.

This should be near Haizhou. He might as well pick her up and give her a proper burial.

Just by looking at her, he could tell her death was not normal. She must have angered some enemy. Such occurrences were common in the Cultivation World, and Lin Yun had no interest in the backstory, just casually reaching out to help.

Upon touching her, Lin Yun felt that something wasn’t right.

The body was still warm, with a faint pulse beating.

Lin Yun quickly lifted her up and brought her back to the boat.

Once on the boat, Lin Yun saw the woman’s face. It was pale from being soaked for a long time, but it was still possible to recognize that she was a beauty.

Her front was even more torn, especially around the chest, which Lin Yun didn’t dare to look at.

After all, he had seen better, and now this was a woman on the brink of death. Lin Yun had no unusual thoughts about her.

Since the woman was not yet dead, there was a possibility of rescuing her.

However...

The only healing method Lin Yun knew was the Resurrection Thunder, and he dared not use that in front of Snow Maiden.

"Ah Yun, are you going to save her?"

"Yes, to meet is to have fate, and if I can save her, I should."

Snow Maiden then nodded, forming a spell gesture. Streams of blue light flowed into the woman’s body, and Lin Yun could feel her life force slowly returning.

Soon after Snow Maiden finished casting the spell, she said, "She should be waking up soon."

"Okay."

So, both of them watched her, waiting to see when she would awaken.

Jiang Chenyu, in a muddled state, felt as if she had been drifting in the water for a long time. She wanted to wake up but just couldn’t manage to until now when she suddenly found the strength to open her eyes wide. She saw two heads close in front of her and let out a cry of alarm, scrambling backward.

"Miss, don’t be afraid. We are not bad people."

Lin Yun offered a gentle smile, but Jiang Chenyu still looked terrified.

Upon waking, her mind immediately raced with the events that had transpired.

She had been set up by Flower Fairy and was severely wounded. In a critical moment, she had resorted to her trump card, The Imperfection of Life.

This Divine Skill could only be comprehended at the highest level of cultivation of the Taiyin True Scripture, and it had transcended the realm of spells, allowing for its use even when the spiritual essence was stagnant.

As the moon waxes and wanes, achieving fullness only to diminish, the invocation of this technique would reset one’s Cultivation Level, causing the cultivator to regress from the pinnacle all the way to the lowest tier.

It is said that after Nine Revolutions, one could become invincible in the world.

But none who reached the highest level ever dared use this technique, for the road back was not easily traversed; climbing the mountain again would be even more challenging than before, and experience alone would not hasten advancement.

The reason Jiang Chenyu chose to use this skill was due to its unique characteristic, where the dissipated cultivation during re-cultivation could heal the physical body, with the spiritual essence not lost but rather integrated into oneself.

Indeed, it was the use of this Divine Skill that allowed her to repair her meridians and save her life.

And now, she had actually encountered Lin Yun!

She recognized Lin Yun, but he seemed not to recognize her.

Jiang Chenyu was greatly relieved. Fortunately, she always wore a veil on her outings. Lin Yun probably hadn’t seen her true face. Otherwise, now that she was without Cultivation Level, she would be in danger if the Flower Fairy found out.

Jiang Chenyu was not foolish; the moment she awoke, she knew what she had to do.

First and foremost, she had to save her life.

In her panic, she weakly asked Lin Yun, "You’re really not a bad person?"

Her attitude seemed fitting for someone who had been hurt.

Lin Yun did not suspect her and nodded, "Of course, we rescued you on the sea. Miss, where are you from? If it’s on the way, I can take you home."

"I... I..."

After stammering for some time, Jiang Chenyu finally expressed her distress, "I don’t remember."

Memory loss?

That seemed plausible.

"Then you should rest well for now. Perhaps you will remember after a while."

With that, Lin Yun took off his own coat and handed it to her, "Put this on."

A gust of sea wind blew over, bringing with it a chill. Only then did Jiang Chenyu realize she had been unknowingly exposing herself far too much. As the Lord of Guanghan Palace, she had always been a symbol of purity and chastity, yet now she was showing so much in front of a man...

Jiang Chenyu, her face flushed red, took Lin Yun’s coat and put it on herself. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Thank you, young master."

Jiang Chenyu wrapped herself in the coat and crouched in a corner.

Her large eyes were filled with fear.

Her fear wasn’t feigned, it was real.

Lin Yun and the Flower Fairy were in cahoots. Given their close relationship, if he found out that the Flower Fairy wanted her dead, wouldn’t he just finish her off without hesitation?

To be honest, it had been very close; Lin Yun nearly had her cremated.

It was her fate to survive.

In any case, having lost her Cultivation Level, Jiang Chenyu simply wanted to find a place to hide, to cultivate in earnest until she had enough power to protect herself. Then she would contact her peers on the Righteous Path and expose the Flower Fairy’s true face.

However, she needed to get away from Lin Yun first.

"I was too hasty; claiming memory loss, Lin Yun might take me with him. If he were to discover anything, that would be trouble," she thought.

Jiang Chenyu began to regret her previous actions. So...

Would it still be okay to say I remember something now? Can I be let go once we reach the shore?

Jiang Chenyu felt conflicted, while Lin Yun was thinking that upon reaching the shore, he needed to keep a closer watch on Jiang Chenyu.

Throughout the journey, the three of them did not engage in much conversation. The ship sailed for another hour, and finally, Haizhou appeared before their eyes.

From a distance, Lin Yun saw that checkpoints had been set up at the port. Their boat of uncertain origin would definitely be subject to scrutiny before docking, and if they couldn’t explain themselves, it would be a problem.

Landing normally was definitely not an option.

So, Lin Yun decided to wait until night before proceeding.

Jiang Chenyu felt even more uneasy. Only now did she wonder how Lin Yun, who was supposed to be undercover on the grassland, ended up here with the Snow Maiden. How did they get here?

And their skulking about—could it be that Lin Yun had defected? If so, wasn’t she in even greater danger?

Jiang Chenyu was trembling in fear.

"Miss, are you very cold?"

Lin Yun noticed Jiang Chenyu’s condition and remembered that, unlike them, she seemed to be without cultivation and not immune to the cold and heat.

"A little," she admitted.

"You can go rest inside the cabin. It’s warmer there."

"Thank you, young master."

After Jiang Chenyu entered the cabin, Lin Yun whispered to the Snow Maiden, "How much Cultivation Level do you still have?"

"Don’t worry, Ah Yun, I can still take on three, and with Fulong here, there’s nothing to fear," she reassured.

"That’s good to know."

Lin Yun finally felt completely at ease. He had been concerned that the Snow Maiden’s strength would decrease infinitely, which could pose complications. Now it seemed there was a limit to this decline.

"That’s good. This woman is of unknown origin; she claims to have lost her memory and doesn’t seem to have any inconsistencies, but a woman as beautiful as her must have a complex background. After we land, you should also keep an eye on her."

"I understand."

Jiang Chenyu would have never dreamed that someone would suspect a person without any flaws.

But that was Lin Yun. If there were any flaws, he would zero in on them for deeper analysis. Even without flaws, he remained cautious, ensuring he had ways to handle whatever might come.

The Snow Maiden was completely obedient to Lin Yun’s words. If he said to pay attention, she would pay close attention...

At nightfall, a Great Mist appeared at the port of Haizhou...
