Chapter 425 - Clear Line Between Rewards and Punishment (1/2)
Calm down!
There must be a trap!
What did the word ‘stable’ mean?
As long as I’m thick-skinned enough, I would be able to ignore the words ‘my husband is my Senior Brother’!
I have to remain calm and not act rashly. If the other party does not admit to his mistake, it would be a training that Senior Brother has arranged for me.
Ling’e calmly put away the two poisonous Dharma artifacts that were hidden in her sleeves and had locked onto Ao Yi. She stood up under the surrounding gazes and used her immortal power to push the jade bracelet and tray back. She stared at the familiar “fairy” in front of her. “Fellow Daoist, you and I really don’t know each other.” Ling’e released the fluctuations of the aura of the Heaven Immortal realm that she had disguised and took half a step back. “Fellow Daoist, what is your agenda for getting so close to me?”
Ke Le’er sighed softly. Her eyes were filled with apology and worry. “Sister-in-law, can we talk in private? Brother is not deliberately fooling around. Sister-in-law, let’s talk privately somewhere else. How about that?”
Ling’e frowned and became even more vigilant.
Is this woman really Senior Brother’s paper effigy? That’s not right. There is no aura or falsehood unique to the paper effigy. This should be a real living being. I have definitely seen it before.
“Sister-in-law, please…”
Ke Le’er made an inviting gesture and sent a voice transmission. “I’m here on Brother Changshou’s orders. There should not be many people who know the name ‘Brother Sect Master’. Brother Sect Master forgot to bring you Spirit Stones and specially asked me to give you some. At the same time, he wants to test your vigilance. Sister-in-law Ling’e, you’re already doing well. You can show that you’ve seen through my disguise. Don’t mention the fact that Ao Yi had let the cat out of the bag, to Brother Sect Master.”
Ao!
Lingle’s pupils constricted, but her expression remained unchanged. She did not reveal any flaws. With a soft snort, she flung her sleeves and left. Ke Le’er carried the tray and followed. The two burly elders of the dragon race, who had transformed into elders, emitted their own pressure, causing the interior and exterior of the tea house to instantly quieten down.
Golden Immortal realm experts are acting as guards!
In an instant, the immortal senses that were probing Ling’e and Ke Le’er were reduced by more than half.
A moment later, in a private room of a restaurant, a few elders of the dragon race set up an immortal power barrier. Ke Le’er put down the tray. Ling’e changed her expression and smiled. “Thank you, Your Highness.” “Oh?” Ke Le’er’s eyes lit up and she sighed. “Sister-in-law actually recognized me.” Ling’e blushed and hurriedly said, “I was just talking nonsense. Senior Brother and I are not married yet. Don’t tell my Senior Brother about this. It’s embarra.s.sing.” “Hahaha.” Ke Le’er transformed into Ao Yi’s youthful appearance and bowed to Ling’e.
Ao Yi said, “Since Ling’e has seen through me, I won’t hide anymore. It’s rare for you to go out to train. Do you want to go to the Dragon Palace?” “No, I’m going out to train. I still have to complete the mission that Senior Brother gave me.” Ling’e shook her head gently. She appeared natural and poised. “Can you bring me out of this town later? After what happened just now, I’m really going to be targeted.”
Ao Yi smiled and nodded. It was a small matter to have the help of a few old dragons.
Li Changshou and Bai Ze looked at each other.
Bai Ze smiled and said, “Ling’e is impressive. She can actually deduce His Highness Ao Yi’s ident.i.ty with a hint.”
Li Changshou rubbed his chin and muttered, “I keep feeling that Ao Yi is going easy on me.” “Why does the Water G.o.d like to use such malice to judge others?”
“This is not a malicious guess. It’s just a reasonable deduction based on my understanding of Ling’e.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Forget it. She pa.s.sed. After all, I made a mistake previously and forgot to prepare more Spirit Stones for her.” Bai Ze laughed and looked at the pond with Li Changshou.
The image of the pool appeared.
Ling’e, Ao Yi, and a few experts of the dragon race fled at the same time and parted at the East Ocean. Ling’e changed her makeup and put on a thin mask. She used Earth Escape to escape thousands of kilometers away and appeared in an uninhabited valley.
She carefully checked her surroundings and rested by the river for a while. She soaked her feet and took out the jade bracelet that Ao Yi had given her.
The first step was to check if there were any additional restrictions on the storage Dharma treasure.
The second step was to wrap the storage Dharma treasure with immortal power and push it dozens of feet away. His immortal senses tried to undo the restrictions.
The third step… “Wow!”
Ling’e exclaimed softly and quickly covered her mouth. Her eyes flickered and tears fell. The Spirit Stones that could fill up the storage Dharma treasures!
Ling’e’s eyes were filled with grief and indignation. She gritted her teeth and kept counting with her fingers. “Stupid Senior Brother, you clearly have so much money, but you make me spend it carefully every day!”
Beside the pool, Bai Ze looked at Li Changshou in disdain and chuckled meaningfully. Li Changshou said calmly, “I just don’t care about it usually. She doesn’t need these in the mountains. She doesn’t lack usage.”
“A little, a little.”
However, Ling’e’s subsequent performance made Li Changshou feel gratified.
When she was about to reach the first training ground, she ran to the town again. This time, she was much more confident.
After shopping in the city for half a day, Ling’e chose two expensive immortal treasures for her master, Qi Yuan. She bought a large amount of cloth and prepared for the trial venue that she was going to go to next. She bought a large number of pills that could satisfy her hunger and were of lower quality. This situation was very similar to that of an elder who had gone out to purchase items for a newly established small sect… When Ling’e left the town, in order to prevent herself from being plotted against, she chose to use a fake strategy to hide her true body in the sleeve of the ancient paper effigy. When the paper effigy left the city, her main body quietly separated. In the end, the paper effigy was not robbed. It was buried in the forest near the town by Ling’e for future use. Bai Ze was amazed, but Li Changshou smiled. It was a little like his demeanor back then. When Ling’e arrived near the border of the South Continent on a cloud…
Li Changshou asked, “Mr. Bai, do you think that the human race and the demons can coexist now?”
“Why do you suddenly ask that, Water G.o.d?”
