Chapter 716 - A strange tacit understanding (2/2)
Then, he would proceed toward the frontline of the battle between humans and the evil creatures of the ‘demonic realm’. After getting exhausted, he would retire from the battle, and find a place to rest.
His strength was quickly growing during this period.
But right at that time, just as he was looking for a place to rest adjacent to the mountain valley of the ‘scholarly school’, he would meet the second woman of his life. This woman was precisely the female ghost, Ling’er.
Afterward, according to the script, Ling Ye would lose himself in the sea of love after experiencing Ling’er affection.
Then, just as the plot seemed to be going in the right direction… Ling’er’s true nature as a ghost would be exposed and the sad part begin.

The immortal boats were once again disguised as aircraft as they carried the members of Jacob’s Production Team toward the White Cloud Academy.
This time, True Monarch White Crane, Yu Jiaojiao, True Monarch Tyrant Flood Dragon, Young Master Phoenix Slayer, Doudou, Song Shuhang, Ye Si, and various other seniors all boarded the same immortal boat. As for Scholar Xian Gong, he didn’t set out together with the members of the movie crew. It was unknown where he had run to spin his coc.o.o.n, and up until now, no one had seen him. Therefore, he wasn’t with them as they were heading toward the White Cloud Academy.
On the way, while in its feminine-looking form, True Monarch White Crane carefully guarded Venerable White’ coc.o.o.n, as well as its own empty coc.o.o.n. The two coc.o.o.ns were still linked together.
The coc.o.o.ns were like a valuable treasure for True Monarch White Crane. It absolutely wouldn’t let them separate.
True Monarch White Crane protected the coc.o.o.ns with utmost care, not leaving them even for an instant.

The journey would last for a while this time. As such, Ye Si sat next to Song Shuhang and listened to him as he was narrating the content of the next scenes of the movie.
“Ling Ye’s second love will be a ghost?” After hearing this much, Ye Si blinked her eyes.
“Ahahaha.” Song Shuhang made a hollow laugh. This plot that Gao Moumou had randomly written was really a jab at his feelings.
But right at this time, Song Shuhang’s mobile phone suddenly rang.
Is it possible that Senior White had slept enough and has finally decided to come out?Song Shuhang took the mobile and glanced at it. The number displayed on the screen belonged to ‘Su Clan’s Sixteen’.
Song Shuhang picked up the phone. Just like Scholar Xian Gong, neither Sixteen nor Seven had set out alongside the movie crew.
The very day Su Clan’s Seven returned to Earth from s.p.a.ce, he carried Su Clan’s Sixteen away so that she could start preparing for the tribulation.
Even now that everyone else had set out, the two of them had yet to appear.
As such, the movie crew had no choice but to set out first. Su Clan’s Seven said that he would carry Sixteen to the White Cloud Academy directly and converge there with everyone else.
After the phone was picked up, Su Clan’s Sixteen’s melodious voice was transmitted from the other end. “Shuhang~ what’s the current position of the movie crew?”
“We are flying in the sky at this time, but I have no idea what’s our current location. Sixteen, what method will you and Senior Seven use to come over?”
Su Clan’s Sixteen replied, “Seven and I are still preparing something. At the appointed time, he will bring me to the White Cloud Academy with his flying sword. Perhaps we’ll get there before you guys.”
“I see, good to know,” Song Shuhang said.
“In that case, let us meet at the White Cloud Academy,” Sixteen said in a soft voice.
Song Shuhang replied, “Sure~ let us meet at the White Cloud Academy.”
❄️❄️❄️
Time flew by.
At last, they arrived at the White Cloud Academy.
The immortal boats slowly descended in a public square outside the White Cloud Academy.
True Monarch Eternal Fire was already waiting for the arrival of the various fellow daoists alongside different teachers of the White Cloud Academy that had come over with him.
After the immortal boat descended, True Monarch Fallout, True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple, and the other seniors that were acquainted with True Monarch Eternal Fire came out and greeted him. Scholars had various different types of customs to observe while greeting each other.
After everyone had descended from the immortal boat, True Monarch Eternal Fire glanced at those present, and asked in puzzlement, “Fellow Daoists, where is Fellow Daoist White?”
“Senior White? He is right there.” True Monarch Fallout pointed toward the position of Song Shuhang and the others.
True Monarch Eternal Fire looked in the direction of Song Shuhang and the others. But even after a while, he was unable to find Venerable White’s form. Let alone his form, he couldn’t even detect his aura.
Right at this time, True Monarch Fallout added, “Fellow Daoist Eternal Fire, do you see those two coc.o.o.ns?”
“Yes, I see them, Fellow Daoist Fallout,” True Monarch Eternal Fire said with a nod.
True Monarch Fallout shrugged his shoulders, and said, “Senior White is inside one of the coc.o.o.ns.”
“…” True Monarch Eternal Fire.
Right at this time, Song Shuhang also urged Senior White to wake up.
This time, he didn’t call him, but stretched out his hand, starting to shake the coc.o.o.n. “Senior White, Senior White, get up. We have arrived at the White Cloud Academy.”
“Oh… but the sky is still so dark… as such, let me sleep some more.” Venerable White’s feeble voice was transmitted from within the coc.o.o.n. If Song Shuhang hadn’t been leaning against the coc.o.o.n, he wouldn’t have understood clearly what he was saying.
“Stop using this excuse about the sky being dark! And stop being capricious! We have already arrived at the White Cloud Academy, and Senior Eternal Fire from White Cloud Academy is looking for you! Quickly come out. Otherwise, it will be seen as a lack of manners!” Song Shuhang urged him.
“Let me sleep some more, and call me right before the shooting of the movie starts. It’s settled then,” Venerable White muttered.
Settled…? h.e.l.l no!
Do you think I won’t dare to flip the table— no, wait… do you really think I won’t dare to flip the coc.o.o.n?!
