The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 347 - 336: Let’s Go See the Relics

Filled with thoughts of the Flower Fairy, Lin Yun lost interest in robbing Pearl Island.

He began to strategize a plan to break the troubling situation.

At present, there was still a chance to salvage what the Flower Fairy had done; kill one Jiang Chenyu and pin the blame on Hu Yuling was all that was needed. The fewer offenses the Flower Fairy committed, the fewer clues she left behind. Once she killed too many, there would be no way to reverse the situation.

The Righteous Path and the Demonic Path were now inextricably linked; if the Flower Fairy were to be exposed, she would be in grave danger.

Next door, Dongfang Hongyue noticed Lin Yun sitting motionless and not appearing to be cultivating, which made her curious. She couldn’t help but want to stealthily find out what was on Lin Yun’s mind.

She would think of him when she couldn’t see him, and now that they were just a wall apart, it was even harder for her to restrain herself.

But at this moment, there were footsteps outside the room, and then the Snow Maiden came in without knocking.

"Sister, what’s wrong?"

"I can’t sleep, Ah Yun, will you sleep with me?"

In the Central Plains, the Snow Maiden felt out of place, and since everyone here wasn’t from her tribe—even though they bore no ill will—she never really felt settled, and only by Lin Yun’s side did she feel a bit safer.

"Alright,"

Lin Yun didn’t refuse and let the Snow Maiden lie down beside him on the bed.

The Snow Maiden wasn’t satisfied and pulled Lin Yun down to lie together, hugging his arm before she was willing to settle down.

The clothes were a bit tight, so she loosened her collar a little.

Under normal circumstances, Lin Yun wouldn’t easily let her off the hook, but the Snow Maiden really had the dumb luck; at this moment, Lin Yun, having already released much of his negative thoughts on Hu Yuling and preoccupied with thoughts of the Flower Fairy, remained unmoved, as steady as a saint.

Dongfang Hongyue, who was in the next room, initially felt furious upon knowing that the Snow Maiden wanted Lin Yun to accompany her to sleep. But seeing that Lin Yun was unaffected, she found herself moved instead.

The Snow Maiden was so attractive, and Lin Yun didn’t even harbor lustful thoughts; clearly, he had his principles and wasn’t the type to sneak around with every pretty girl he saw.

It was just unfortunate that with the Snow Maiden there, she couldn’t go see Lin Yun.

"That’s not right, though, why did I come here? Just to watch him sleep with someone else?"

Dongfang Hongyue found her own behavior somewhat perplexing.

But soon, Dongfang Hongyue came up with a reasonable explanation for herself.

She was here to make sure that Lin Yun had only slept with the Snow Maiden and hadn’t done anything else.

Thinking this, she felt somewhat comforted.

Lin Yun waited for the Snow Maiden to fall asleep before slowly removing his hand and making sure she was asleep; only then did he float out the window.

Dongfang Hongyue was puzzled about where Lin Yun was off to now.

She saw Lin Yun climb onto the rooftop, and then he took out a whistle and blew it.

Dongfang Hongyue: "..."

So he was looking for her.

Dongfang Hongyue immediately responded. Even though they were close, she still expended Divine Sense to form her image.

"Yue’er,"

Lin Yun called Dongfang Hongyue by name, and she retorted with pride, "You should be calling me Master right now."

In front of others, she had already begun to vie for the position of the main palace, but in front of Lin Yun, she remained proudly capricious.

Lin Yun ignored her and kept calling her Yue’er.

"Yue’er, where are you now?"

"What’s the matter?"

Dongfang Hongyue suddenly felt a little guilty. If she told Lin Yun that she was in the next room, how embarrassing would that be?

"There’s something I need your help with."

Seeing the seriousness in Lin Yun’s voice, Dongfang Hongyue stopped her wild thoughts.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

With Lin Yun speaking so earnestly, Dongfang Hongyue certainly wouldn’t refuse.

"Master, you must have heard about the Lord of Guanghan Palace being stabbed and falling into the river,"

Not sure why Lin Yun was suddenly bringing this up, Dongfang Hongyue still answered, "I’ve heard. It’s not just falling into the river. She’s most likely dead by now. With so much time passed, there’s no chance of survival. Your Flower Fairy will be in charge now, are you happy about that?"

"Jiang Chenyu was most likely killed by the Flower Fairy, and this is tied to the incident at Thousand Mechanism Valley years ago. Right, you know about the Flower Fairy’s Exquisite Heart and her being the Thousand Mechanism Valley descendant. If I’m not mistaken, her revenge plan has begun."

"Oh, I didn’t even think of that until you mentioned it."

Only after Lin Yun mentioned it did Dongfang Hongyue remember the Flower Fairy’s identity, and upon hearing his words, she suddenly realized something.

"She’s not just out for revenge, perhaps she also wants to take control of Guanghan Palace. She wants to help you,"

Dongfang Hongyue subconsciously expressed her opinion, not noticing that she had spoken well of her rival in love.

However, it didn’t matter anymore; outwardly, they were united.

Lin Yun was taken aback, now realizing this additional motive of the Flower Fairy.

"Anyway, I would like you to see her and tell her to shift the blame onto Hu Yuling. Advise her not to take further action. The incident at Thousand Mechanism Valley from years ago may have more to it, but I have no evidence right now. I hope she can wait for me,"

"Oh, so you called me in the middle of the night just for the safety of your little lover,"

Dongfang Hongyue said jealously. Without waiting for Lin Yun to sweet-talk her, she let him off the hook.

"I’ll remember this. I’ll settle the score with you the next time we meet. Since you think it’s urgent, I’ll go find her right now!"

Dongfang Hongyue was always this efficient in getting things done, never dragging her feet.

"Wait a moment."

Dongfang Hongyue had not yet set out when she heard a knock on the window.

As she opened the window, she saw Lin Yun outside.

"How did you know I was here!"

Dongfang Hongyue was quite surprised, to which Lin Yun chuckled, "I have good ears—I heard your voice!"

Dongfang Hongyue: "..."

How careless of me.

To communicate with Lin Yun, she had lifted the soundproof formation in her room, not expecting it to give her away so easily.

"Why are you here, did Bai Jiaojiao tell you I went out with Snow Maiden and you’re worried about me?"

"Hmph, who wouldn’t be jealous when you return with an extra woman every time you go out?

Lin Yun felt somewhat ashamed upon hearing this.

"I’m sorry, Yue’er."

Lin Yun pulled Dongfang Hongyue into his embrace, gently saying, "The one I love the most will always be you."

It’s all because I can’t keep my mouth shut and have unintentionally entangled with so many people. Having entangled with them, how could I not take responsibility?

Wouldn’t that be irresponsible from start to finish?

"That’s more like it."

Dongfang Hongyue, thusly placated by Lin Yun, found her displeasure evaporating like smoke.

After whispering sweet nothings to each other for a while and considering the matter of Flower Fairy, the two did not proceed further, and Dongfang Hongyue left without lingering.

Lin Yun returned to his room, planning to go straight to sleep, then caught a whiff of his own scent and, recognizing the sensitivity of cultivators’ noses...

He had no choice but to cover it up, carefully holding Snow Maiden close to maximize bodily contact.

And so the night passed. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

When Snow Maiden woke up, the first thing she did was to remove Lin Yun’s hand from under her clothes, before shyly tidying up her dress.

Lin Yun "groggily" woke up, but in reality, he had not slept a wink.

"Sister, you’re awake too."

"Mhm, where shall we go today?"

As if nothing had happened, Snow Maiden didn’t blame Lin Yun. Since Lin Yun liked her and she liked him back, the two were a couple now. Whether Lin Yun liked holding or kissing her, it was all natural—he just made her a little shy.

"Yesterday at Hundred Flowers Building, I heard that a relic has appeared in Central Plains. How about we go check it out?"

"Sure! Shall we bring Hai Li Lao along?"

"What’s Hai Li Lao?"

Lin Yun seemed puzzled, prompting Snow Maiden to say with curiosity, "Ah Yun, you don’t know this? According to our naming convention, we combine the birthplace with the blessings of the parents to create a name. Hai Li Lao should be from Central Plains People, we picked her up from the sea, so calling her that is not wrong!"

Lin Yun: "..."

Luckily she wasn’t scooped out from the bottom of the sea.

"Sister, we’re in Central Plains now, you should learn more about Central Plains culture.

Amused by Snow Maiden, Lin Yun pinched her cheek, saying, "Let’s call her Xiao Hai instead, shall we?"

"Okay then..."

Snow Maiden didn’t quite grasp Central Plains culture, but seeing Lin Yun say so, she just went along with it.

Next door, Jiang Chenyu listened to the two of them naming her, her face speechless.

Jiang Chenyu, Hai Li Lao.

When compared side by side, the names made her cringe even more.

Upon overhearing Lin Yun and Snow Maiden’s plans to visit the relic, Jiang Chenyu was also tempted.

She planned to use Lin Yun’s departure from Haizhou to find an opportunity to seek out her old friends, expose the crimes of Flower Fairy. If she tried to make the journey on her own, she feared Flower Fairy might have already infiltrated Guanghan Palace thoroughly.

The person Jiang Chenyu wanted to seek help from was Fang Yu; firstly, because she trusted Fang Yu’s character, and they had a good personal relationship, and secondly, the power of Shenxiao Sect was no less than that of Guanghan Palace, providing a strong backup in case of any mishaps.

Unfortunately, Flower Fairy was willing to set up a life-or-death challenge for Lin Yun and Dongfang Hongyue, and Lin Yun was also ready to give up a Divine Artifact for her. Once Lin Yun found out her intention to expose Flower Fairy, Jiang Chenyu could not guarantee whether he would uphold justice or help Flower Fairy to silence others.

Jiang Chenyu waited in her room for a while before Lin Yun and Snow Maiden came to find her.

"Miss, we are setting out to Gan River today. Would you like to join us? Judging by your demeanor, you don’t seem to be from Haizhou. Perhaps you were washed down by the Dragon River, and if we trek upstream along the Dragon River, we might encounter your relatives and friends. What do you say?"

Lin Yun wasn’t interested in keeping her company just because she was good-looking.

The only reason he had asked was out of concern for her, a frail woman without memories in the dangerous mix of Haizhou. He suspected she might be bullied if left here.

Having saved her already, he felt obligated to see it through to the end and regarded it as forming a good karma.

If they were lucky to find her relatives and friends along the way, the matter would resolve itself. If not, by the time they reached Gan River and had still not found them, he would give her some money to help her settle down.

This would be Lin Yun going above and beyond in kindness.

Lin Yun’s words profoundly resonated with Jiang Chenyu.

She couldn’t help but think that Lin Yun was truly a good person.

She nodded her head, saying, "If that’s the case, then thank you, young master. I will surely repay this kindness in the future."

Hey, isn’t it usually that she can’t repay his great kindness and must devote her life to him?
