Chapter 272: Venerable One Miaofa!

Lu... what...?

Senior Lu?!

The faces of the young people in front of me changed this time.

The emotionless girl from before?

Upon seeing Zang Dajiang's serious expression and hearing his respectful tone, Yin Zicheng was shocked and wondered if this Lu Wan person could really be someone powerful.

Zang Dajiang furrowed his brow and asked, "Have you all met Senior Lu?"

Fang Lingjun's face stiffened and he dared not even breathe.

Yin Zicheng, born into a noble family, was very talented in reading people's expressions and shifting blame. Seeing Zang Dajiang's subtle change in expression, he gritted his teeth and said, "If... if you're referring to the girl named Lu Wan, we met her not long ago."

Zang Dajiang quickly grabbed the sword on the table after hearing the words. The young boys were startled and took two steps back.

Fortunately, Zang Dajiang didn't immediately want to harm them with the sword. On the contrary, he was patient in his words and actions. "Where is Senior Lu now?"

One of the young boys urgently replied, "He just... just left not long ago!"

"Take me there."

Fang Lingjun, feeling relieved, took a deep breath. He noticed that his back was sweaty.

Although it might be a bit dishonest to betray the whereabouts of Shi Jinyi and his group, if this person named Lu Wan is really someone powerful, then she probably won't care about someone like Zang Dajiang...

Right?

Probably.

These more than ten young boys who have never experienced the hardships of society followed behind Zang Dajiang, both scared and filled with a sense of anticipation.

Yin Zicheng cleverly led Zang Dajiang towards the direction of the inn, guessing that Qiao Wan and her group might be heading there.

As a result, because of Xie Xingzhi, Zang Dajiang also didn't dare to make any moves.

Sure enough, on the way, Shi Jinyi and Qiao Wan were blocked by a group of people.

When Qiao Wan saw the familiar black hood, she was momentarily stunned. Then, her mind went into overdrive, and she looked at the dozen or so young boys behind her, feeling completely overwhelmed.

Oh my gosh!!! How did you bring this sorcerer here?!?!

So you realized that you were fooled by her and hurriedly came here for revenge, right?!

When Zang Dajiang saw Qiao Wan, he immediately became serious, took a step forward energetically, and respectfully greeted her.

"Young one pays respects to the elder."

Regardless of how shocked this gesture was for Yin Zicheng and the others.

In other words, in that moment, Yin Zicheng and his group's perspective on the world was completely shaken.

Damn! Is this expressionless girl really a master without any cultivation?!?!

Qiao Wan stiffened and silently accepted her fate.

Now... What should we do?

Should we continue pretending to be knowledgeable?

Help! She is not proficient in her work.

The young girl remained silent.

Zang Dajiang, maintaining this posture, was so tired that his back was about to break. He really wanted to raise his head and ask, "Senior, can you stand up?"

But Qiao Wan didn't speak. Because of the authority of the mines in front of her, Zang Dajiang didn't dare to make a sound either.

Watching this arrogant and unruly demon cultivator behaving like a well-behaved kitten in front of this girl in pink clothes.

As a result, Yin Zicheng and the others' worldview was forcefully refreshed.

Finally, Qiao Wan moved. The young girl calmly shifted her gaze and said, "Is it you?"

Zang Dajiang immediately said, "It's me! It's the younger generation! Cleverly standing up and full of joy, he said, "I never thought I would meet the senior here today. It is indeed my good fortune!"

Qiao Wan couldn't figure out why Zang Dajiang had specifically come to find her. She tried her best to maintain her calm and serious expression, using the acting skills she had learned from her college drama club. Her mind was racing with thoughts.

The other person seemed respectful, indicating that they hadn't realized she was just pretending to be impressive.

Given the current situation, Qiao Wan thought carefully and decided to act cautiously.

While Qiao Wan was silently contemplating, Zang Dajiang was discreetly observing her.

She hadn't seen the appearance of "Senior Lu" from the night before, as there was a carriage curtain between them. But now, upon seeing him, he appeared to be just an ordinary girl in her early twenties, not like the person who had made such a powerful impact that night.

Zhang Changfeng's words also made her more suspicious.

Qiao Wan came back this time to inform "Senior Lu" in advance and let him know that Zhang Changfeng is coming. She wanted to sell him a favor. If "Senior Lu" and Zhang Changfeng were to fight, it would be even better. It would be best if they could beat up that troublemaker Zhang Changfeng and kill him. Zang Dajiang thought viciously, if Zhang Changfeng is killed, then this territory would belong to him.

However, now that Zang Dajiang saw Qiao Wan's appearance, he began to change his mind a bit.

Why not test her again and see if she is genuine or fake? If she dares to play tricks on him, he would pull out his sword and kill her. If she is genuine, then it wouldn't hurt to flatter her later.

Zang Dajiang's cunning plan spun in his mind. He started to count and became more insincere when he smiled.

"To be honest, I specifically came to find Senior.

After the younger generation left that day, they suddenly had a realization. Zang Dajiang, with a bitter smile, said, "I deeply feel guilty for these many years, as I have failed to live up to the identity of a cultivator. However, I am trapped in the path of evil, and now I want to abandon it and follow the righteous way again. But my techniques have been tainted by dark energy and are no longer compatible with what I learned before. I wonder if the senior can offer me some guidance?"

Shi Jinyi couldn't help but blurt out, anxiously saying, "Senior, you mustn't!"

She wanted to refuse, but she sensed that the person in front of her, with a hood on, had some probing intentions. His eyes were fierce, and Qiao Wan felt uneasy.

If she refused here, this dark cultivator might attack directly.

Should she speak or not?

If she revealed her true intentions, not only would she be killed by the angry hooded figure, but Shi Jinyi and the more than twenty others, including Yin Zicheng, would also be affected.

Facing the test of life and death, Qiao Wan, an ordinary college girl who grew up in a peaceful environment and has never even seen a gun, felt immense pressure.

Qiao Wan's mind went blank for a moment. How...how should she respond?

She had never undergone any training.

"Enlightenment comes from within," Qiao Wan said coldly, turning to leave. "No matter how much others talk, if you can't understand it yourself, it's just a waste of words."

Zang Dajiang was quicker and stopped her, bowing with a smile. "How would I know that you can't comprehend if you, respected senior, don't speak?"

Qiao Wan muttered in frustration.

The demon cultivator smiled softly.

The girl stared coldly at the ground.

It was a silent duel.

Although Shi Jinyi and the others were worried, they didn't dare to approach due to their low cultivation level.

After a while, the girl snorted coldly, "You're quite skilled, aren't you? Aren't you afraid I'll kill you right here?"

Zang Dajiang shivered, feeling a chill run up his spine. He looked at the delicate and beautiful girl in front of him and suddenly had a strong intuition.

Maybe this girl named Lu Wan has killed many people.

She has killed many people, but she doesn't enjoy killing. Even in her murderous aura, there is a faint sense of righteousness.

At this point, Zang Dajiang had no choice but to put on a brave face and force a smile, saying, "I apologize for any misunderstanding, I didn't mean any harm."

"I am just eager to learn, I hope you can give me some guidance."

In reality, Qiao Wan was also very nervous, but she had to maintain her poker face and start talking nonsense seriously, saying, "If your heart is pure and your methods are righteous, how could there be any contradictions?"

"It's up to you how you use it, whether you are attached to it or not, enlightenment and confusion are personal experiences, not something dictated by different religions."

After speaking, Qiao Wan, feeling slightly nervous, looked uncertainly at the demon cultivator in front of her. She wondered if she could get away with these vague words.

To her surprise, Zang Dajiang and Shi Jinyi, along with others, were completely stunned.

Yin Zicheng silently whispered, "If you use it, will it be the same?"

Yes, these cultivation techniques were originally just tools, meant to be used by people, not to trap them.

In an instant, Yin Zicheng, who had been practicing both Confucianism and Taoism, felt as if the fog that had plagued him for over a decade had been effortlessly dispelled by the young girl before him. He suddenly felt enlightened and optimistic about the future.

Zang Dajiang had asked a question that had troubled him for many years.

Having switched to the demon realm as a cultivator, he had been struggling with the conflict between his previous teachings and the demonic cultivation techniques for who knows how long.

Now, he felt as if a cloud had been lifted and a bright moon had emerged, and all his doubts and uncertainties vanished.

With a few words, Zang Dajiang's heart skipped a beat. He didn't dare to delay and immediately stood up straight and respectfully bowed.

"Thank you for your guidance, thank you for your guidance. I understand."

Qiao Wan's heart raced, and her mouth felt dry as she thought.

To go or not to go, Mr. Hat, can you give me a definite answer?

But then Mr. Hat's expression changed and he became very happy.

Qiao Wan understood that she had guessed correctly.

"Oh, by the way, I know a sorcerer named Zhang Changfeng. I heard about the power you displayed that day, so I wanted to come and pay my respects." Thinking of Zhang Changfeng, Zang Dajiang hurriedly said, "I tried to stop him, but I couldn't. He insisted on going his own way, and I had no choice but to come and inform you before he did."

"This Zhang Changfeng is ruthless. Please be careful, Senior."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Wan felt weak.

Should I thank you? Mr. Hat, you're quite something.

"Qiao Wan, where are you going?" Zang Dajiang asked eagerly, "I know this place well, can I help you?"

Qiao Wan ignored him and walked away.

Zang Dajiang didn't feel angry, but happily thought to himself, "This master is truly eccentric. I must latch onto his leg."

As Qiao Wan left, Shi Jinyi and the others were stunned, but quickly followed her.

Once they were out of Zang Dajiang's sight, Qiao Wan felt a heavy weight lifted from her heart. She turned around and met the admiring and awe-filled gazes of Shi Jinyi, Yin Zicheng, Fang Lingjun, and others.

Qiao Wan's mouth twitched involuntarily.

She was in big trouble.

She couldn't get rid of this master's attention.

...

After politely declining Yin Zicheng and others' invitations, Qiao Wan spent the night sharing a room with Ji Ling.

On this day, they couldn't catch a glimpse of the legendary Lone Sword. So, once they found an inn to stay in, Ji Ling went to the bustling street to buy a storybook to pass the time. He enthusiastically invited Qiao Wan to read it together.

Unable to refuse, Qiao Wan opened the book.

"A Passionate Night with Venerable One Miaofa?"

It even had illustrations. One of them depicted a stunning long-haired Buddha.

"How about it?" Ji Ling smiled. "Isn't it beautiful, Senior Lu? You might not know, but this is Venerable One Miaofa! They say Venerable One is the most beautiful in the entire cultivation realm, but unfortunately, they're currently in seclusion."

The young girl sighed, resting her chin on her hand. "We won't have the chance to witness the beauty of Venerable One."

In the book, the Buddha had long, flowing hair of deep blue. Their phoenix-like eyes were slightly drooped, with delicate eyebrows dancing towards their temples. Their thin lips were dawn-like, moist and radiant. The corners of their eyes were slightly raised, adding a touch of grace. On their petite face, no larger than a palm, there was a subtle mix of solemnity and dignity, with a hint of Buddha-nature shining through.

Her eyes were like a clear and steady pool of water, their beauty contrasting with their authority, making people feel a sense of awe and dare not trespass.

"Although she's good-looking, but..."

"But what?"

"Do you want to hear it?"

This Venerable One Miaofa may be beautiful, but she lacks integrity. It's like her beauty withers away as soon as you look at her.

These monks are really wicked.

Moreover, there's always a feeling...

Qiao Wan scratched her head and thought for a while, trying to come up with an adjective. Finally, she said, "To be honest, this senior is indeed very beautiful. But the impression he gives me..." She carefully chose her words and said sincerely, "It's like my father."

Ji Ling: ...
