551 Never Have That Dark History! (2/2)
However, when it came to Heavenly Silk Headcover, Tiandao Lan revealed a difficult look. ”These last few years, the divination has had some results, but there are many contradictions between them. The Elders have spent a lot of efforts to deal with them, but the results are still very vague.”
Wang Lu said, ”If you exclude all the artificial subjective assumptions, and only base it on the results of the divination?”
Tiandao Lan said, ”That Heavenly Silk Headcover is indeed one of the fitting parts of the Nichang Feather Clothes.”
Wang Lu nodded. ”Go on.”
”But, it's not like the part that we lost. Because the top part of the Headcover that was stained with the cause and effect associated with Yin and Yang School is too thin, as if it's just been recently manufactured and hasn't been used yet. But theoretically, it should have been used for a long time before it was lost.”
”Do you have a clear evidence to prove this? That before it was lost, the Heavenly Silk Headcover was used by Yin and Yang School?”
”This is very difficult. That period of history happened too long ago, so the written records and so on had been very blurred. But, I think it should have been used. It's rare to create a set of magical treasure but not use it, it doesn't make sense.”
Wang Lu closed his eyes and thought for a moment. He then opened his eyes and said, ”Is it possible that as early as when your Nichang Feather Clothes had just been manufactured, the part of the clothes was already lost, but your ancestors simply made a counterfeit or similar to it to conceal it, and at the same time, the authentic one was received by the group of immortal tombs, and then later given to the Yin and Yang School as the form of prize?”
Upon hearing this, Tiandao Lan was startled. ”Um, if not considering that there are so many assumptions in it, it seems to make sense. After all, the historical records before the age of chaos are too vague that you can basically say anything. But the problem is, why would our school's most precious object fall in the group of immortal tombs?”
”Yeah, why?” Wang Lu asked back with a smile. Inwardly, he had already vaguely guessed it, but he stopped himself from saying it out.
”How are you making progress here?”
Tiandao Lan immediately complained, ”How could there be any progress, we've been given some missions, but they're all just trivial tasks. There are not many rewards, but the energy spent to do them is actually not small.”
Wang Lu asked, ”Then you are still here to purchase the house? Could it be that you're going to stay in this Gorgeous Town for a long time and do odd jobs every day for Li Yan?”
Tiandao Lan said, ”We don't have a choice. In this Heavenly Earth, we are counted as unregistered residents… and according to the standard rules here, unless we are Daoist Masters of Jindan Stage, otherwise, as unregistered residents, there will be a lot of inconveniences for us. As for that Li Yan, she is actually so kind to us, and if we do some odd jobs for her, she would handle the identity problem for us. Ah, Senior Brother Wang Lu, if you are also doing missions in this Gorgeous Town, please help us, okay?”
Wang Lu apologetically smiled. ”Unfortunately, I will leave Gorgeous Town soon. For me, a Jindan Stage town is a bit inefficient. However, before leaving, I can help you convey your aspiration to Li Yan, and see if it's possible to issue several permanent resident statuses for you all.”
”Senior Brother Wang Lu, you are really the best!” Caught in a pleasant surprised, Lin Wan threw herself at him. It was just that, a few parts of her clothes went missing in a flash, revealing a large area of snow white skin.
Wang Lu took a step back and calmly avoided her.
Tiandao Lan softly said, ”After parting for this time, we don't know when we're going to meet again, don't you want to leave behind some fond memories before leaving?”
”Last sex before parting is inauspicious, so please just forget about it.”
”But… we're going to miss you,” Li Qingci said in a soft voice.
”Yeah, both you and Sister Wu are the same, once we parted, we will never see each other again, even the letters are getting less and less. We… are actually really sad.”
Seeing that these few girls had begun to cry as they talk, Wang Lu, too lazy to care whether they were just acting or being serious, immediately resorted to another killer move.
”Since what you all want is to have some memories to divert yourself from loneliness, then just use this.”
He reached into his mustard seed bag and took out a thick stack of crystal stone video record. Among which, there were a lot of revealing images of his Master.
”These are all for you. I wish you all a pleasant Telepathic Finger training.”

After bidding farewell to the several girls of Yin and Yang School, Wang Lu went to the Temple of Heaven again. Sure enough, Li Yan was indeed so kind. She immediately promised to solve the identity problem of Tiandao Lan and the others.
Then, Wang Lu directly left Gorgeous Town riding on his flying sword toward Palace of Heaven.
Palace of Heaven was the largest city within the few thousands of miles area, and one of the important strongholds of Temple of Heaven for many years. The person in control of the temple was Moonless Harmonious Heaven, which ranked seventh within the ninth layers of heaven in the Temple of Heaven power structure. She counted as a high-level order, an out-and-out overlord.
According to the information obtained from the conversation with Li Yan at the dinner table, Moonless was likely to be a Deity Stage expert, which was an outrageously high level for those who had just been stabilized in middle-level Jindan Stage.
However, isn't it very interesting if the level is particularly high?
