The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 265 Night Visit
In a quiet room in the side hall, three golden pills sat opposite each other.

"You two are both outstanding people. You should get closer to each other." Mo Yingcheng poured tea and was very warm.

Mu Zhen stopped talking, as if she didn't like socializing.

Lin Bai knew Sister Zhen’s temper. She only spoke when she wanted to, and wouldn’t speak no matter what she did. So Lin Bai didn’t speak either.

Mo Yingcheng talked nonsense for a long time, and seeing that both of them were silent, he winked at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai was familiar with Mo Yingcheng and knew that he wanted him to talk more.

Of course, Lin Bai was already used to teasing Sister Zhen, so he got the hang of it very quickly.

"I have always admired Senior Wood Demon, and today I have the chance to meet you." Lin Bai sighed, looked at Mu Zhen, and said, "Senior Sister is Senior Wood Demon's junior, and I never thought that she is also a fairy-like figure."

Mu Zhen raised his eyebrows, glanced at Lin Bai, smiled, and said, "I've heard that Senior Gu is stunningly beautiful. After seeing you today, I can tell that you are not lying to me."

She responded lazily, glanced at Lin Bai, and added, "Since Senior Gu loves you, you must be very filial and serve him all the time, right?"

"Senior sister, you know me. I may not be good at other things, but I am the best at serving people." Lin Bai said.

Mu Zhen sneered and said no more.

The two of them started to confront each other, and Mo Yingcheng was not surprised. Most outstanding people, even if they don't show it in normal times, must have some arrogance in their hearts, so it is normal for them to disagree with each other.

But Mo Yingcheng is the master after all, so some reconciliation is needed.

"I've always heard that Senior Mu Yao was a free and easy person, but I didn't expect that he had a proud junior like my junior sister." Mo Yingcheng smiled.

After hearing this, Lin Bai realized that Mo Yingcheng also didn't know the origin of the wood monster.

"Yes, yes!" Lin Bai also sighed and asked, "Where is Senior Sister from?"

"Out of town." Mu Zhen replied.

Although I knew Sister Zhen would not tell the truth, I still had an idea in mind. I just didn't expect Sister Zhen to not give me any face and refused to reveal a single word.

They obviously know each other well, but they are still hiding things. Lin Bai feels that he won't get the answer by asking, so he might have to use some other means.

Mo Yingcheng seemed to be used to seeing unreasonable people. He was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and asked, "Junior sister is from another place. She has never been to Daoyin Sect. I guess you are not familiar with Jiuzha Mountain. I can be your tour guide."

He pointed at Lin Bai and said, "Junior Brother Zhuan Lun is a newcomer in Qiaoshan, and he has many old and new friends. Not only does he have the love and care of Senior Gu, he also has a say in Fairy Chen Yu. If Junior Sister wants to go to Qiaoshan, she must ask Junior Brother Zhuan Lun to be her guide."

"Oh?" Mu Zhen looked interested and asked, "Are you also acquainted with Fairy Chen Yu?"

"I just have a little knowledge of it." Lin Bai said modestly.

"Junior sister, you may not know that the person who has the life contract with Fairy Chenyu is an old acquaintance of Junior Brother Zhuanlun, and they have a close relationship, so naturally he can have a say." Mo Yingcheng said with a smile.

"Who is the person with the fate contract?" Mu Zhen asked curiously.

Lin Bai thought she didn't seem to be lying, so she must really not know. But the wood demon must know something, but he probably didn't tell her in detail.

Mo Yingcheng immediately briefly told the story of the fox's choice of a wife, including the great opportunity that Xiuxiu had for building her foundation.

"Miss Xiuxiu is blessed by heaven." Mu Zhen had saved Lin Bai when he was forming the elixir, so he knew about Xiuxiu and Qu Chengjia, but he did not expect that Xiuxiu had another opportunity.

"Who says it's not true?" Mo Yingcheng also sighed, "Junior Brother Zhuanlun and Xiuxiu have known each other since childhood, so Fairy Chenyu has taken extra care of them."

Hearing this, Mu Zhen looked at Lin Bai again, with a mocking smile on his face, "What an acquaintance!"

Lin Bai naturally understood why she was like this. When they were in Huaxi County in the past, she was always watching him and knew about his affair with Xiuxiu. This time, she was mocking him for deceiving the little girl's feelings.

"Ahem..." Lin Bai didn't want to argue. He only looked at Mo Yingcheng and asked, "Senior Brother Mo, what the three elders just said seems to be related to us. What is it?"

"Of course it's a good thing." Mo Yingcheng did not hide it. "There is a secret realm in Jiuzha Mountain. It opens once every hundred years. It is the best place to sharpen the heart of the cultivators. There are many rare treasures and spiritual herbs there. It is most suitable for Jindan realm cultivators like us to go. Master has an old relationship with the Lord of Jiuzha Mountain. He promised Master three places. Last time, when Master had to go out for something, he got help from Senior Wood Demon and Fairy Chenyu. It's a good opportunity to return the favor."

Jiuzha Mountain stretches for thousands of miles. Among them is the Jiuding Sect, which is also a Nascent Soul Sect with a deeper foundation than the Qiaoshan Sect.

Since it is a secret place in someone's sect and is used exclusively for golden elixirs, it must be extremely cherished.

Lin Bai didn't know how deep the friendship between Chen Tianren and the Lord of Jiuzha Mountain was, but since he was able to get three places, they must have a very good relationship.

But what did Chen Tianren do that required the help of the wood demon and the fox at the same time? One of them possessed the secret method of the dead wood cicada, and his magical power was related to time; and the fox, needless to say, practiced a method related to space.

With the help of these two people, Chen Tianren must have accomplished great things.

"How many golden elixirs can enter that secret realm? What's so special about it?" Mu Zhen asked.

"It is said that the number of people can be determined after the secret realm is opened. The minimum is ten people, and the maximum is twenty or thirty. There is no fixed number." Mo Yingcheng seemed to know a lot about the affairs of Jiuzha Mountain. "As for what is special about the secret realm, that is not something I can know. In previous years, most of the people who entered the secret realm were from Jiuding Sect or its vassals. They have a ban and never talk too much to outsiders, so it is not easy to ask too much."

"When will it open?" Lin Bai asked.

"Just one or two years." Mo Yingcheng replied.

Lin Bai nodded slightly and looked at Sister Zhen. With Sister Zhen's family background, it was unknown why she came to wade into this muddy water. Was the secret realm really useful, or was there another reason?
Mu Zhen looked back and said nothing.

Lin Bai didn't want to ask now, so he thought about waiting until no one was around before asking in detail. Although Sister Zhen was tight-lipped, as long as he served her well, he could still get some information.

"When I was greedy in the past, Sister Zhen asked me to call her mother. I was too young at that time. I don’t know if it’s too late to make up for it now." Lin Bai sighed in his heart.

Mu Zhen saw that Lin Bai looked absent-minded and was staring at her chest. She finally became impatient and stood up and walked out.

Mo Yingcheng hurriedly caught up with her, "Since Junior Sister doesn't like to chat, you can rest in silence first. I don't know how long the three elders will discuss the Dao." After leaving the side hall, "I have arranged a place for Junior Sister to rest." Mo Yingcheng called Duguyan who was guarding the door and pushed her in front of Mu Zhen, "This is Duguyan. Let her follow Junior Sister from now on. Just tell her what to do."

Mu Zhen nodded slightly and saluted, then followed Dugu Yan to the back mountain.

Lin Bai also walked out of the side hall. Seeing her walking away, he whispered to Mo Yingcheng, "This person's words are rude and his behavior is disrespectful. Why did Brother Mo let your junior sister serve him in person?"

"Junior Sister Mu caused trouble, and she is still being punished. It's a good opportunity for her to meet a master." Mo Yingcheng said casually, then turned back to look at Lin Bai and whispered: "When we entered the mountain gate just now, this Junior Sister Mu was quite easy to talk to. I didn't expect that she actually has quite a personality."

"Quite a temperamental person? Brother Mo, you want to say that he has a bad temper?" Lin Bai said with a smile.

"It's normal for a young man to have some temper." Mo Yingcheng actually admitted it.

"Brother, where does she live?" Lin Bai was thinking about visiting her at night. It would be the first time for her to do so.

Mo Yingcheng heard this and smiled mischievously. He looked Lin Bai up and down and whispered, "Your Taoist partner is stunningly beautiful, are you still not satisfied?" He pointed to a high mountain behind the main hall, "Yushan Mountain."

Lin Bai looked over and saw that the mountain really looked like a feather fan.

The two chatted for a while, and then Lin Bai returned to Daishan.

Sister Pei was still meditating on the top of the mountain, and Min Hengbo stayed indoors. Of course, even when she went out, she didn't talk much to Lin Bai.

After playing with the snake for a while, it was getting dark.

"That's not how you practice swordplay." Lin Bai saw the gatekeeper girl practicing with the wooden sword he had given her, so he stepped forward and snatched it away.

He held the hilt of the sword, made a light sword flower, and then thrust it forward. There was no power in it, just an ordinary move.

“Although I have never seen the sword of your ancestor with my own eyes, I think it has returned to its original state.”

Lin Bai put away the sword, threw it to the girl, and walked down the mountain.

The little girl held the sword blankly and muttered, "What's the name of the ancestor?"

Lin Bai went to Yushan Mountain, and this time he had many questions in his mind that needed Sister Zhen to answer.

For example, what faction did Sister Zhen belong to, what had she done in recent years, and what happened to the younger sister she mentioned before...

Of course, during the previous meeting in the hall, the wood demon seemed to know Li Xinghe's origins. Since he knew Li Xinghe, he probably also knew the origins of Taoist Master Wuxiang.

He even knew where the powerful man who had fought with Wuxiang Taoist Master came from!

Lin Bai is considered the descendant of Taoist Wuxiang, so naturally he knows more about Taoist Wuxiang.

It would be even better if I could know the clues to the second half of the Creation Sutra.

Of course, the most important thing is how Sister Zhen was able to find me before I became a Taoist.

Obviously, she had a special destiny that allowed her to isolate and deduce, but her "ancestor" seemed to have predicted her and let Sister Zhen sit and wait.

With a lot of questions in mind and several plans to pry open Sister Zhen's mouth, Lin Bai took advantage of the night and came to Yushan Mountain.

Climbing up the mountainside, you will see a quiet courtyard.

After knocking gently on the door, Duguyan came out. When she saw that it was Lin Bai, her face turned red again, and she lowered her head to the door, looking a little embarrassed.

What's going on? Lin Bai was well-informed. After observing this young foundation-building girl, he saw that she was indeed very good-looking, but she looked shy. However, she was not shy because of admiration, but seemed to be ashamed and guilty.

"Senior Sister Pei asked you to come?" Dugu Yan spoke, feeling very embarrassed, and stood in front of the door with her head lowered. "It's a pity that I have a guest today, as you can see."

How did it get involved with Sister Pei? Lin Bai came here alone and didn't dare to tell Sister Pei, for fear that she would get jealous.

"It doesn't matter if there are guests." Lin Bai said simply.

"This..." Dugu Yan was stunned, turned around to look inside the room, and whispered, "There are guests here..." She clenched her fists, feeling embarrassed and anxious, "Isn't it just that I lost the sword fight? Why is Pei Ning so aggressive?"

After she finished speaking, she actually gained courage, raised her head and looked directly at Lin Bai, and said, "Good senior, can I think about it for a few more days?"

Sister Pei is up to something again! Lin Bai didn't say much, just said: "Then I'll give you a few days. I just happened to have something to ask Senior Sister Mu, please lead the way."

"What's the matter?" Dugu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, but asked curiously.

"I am fascinated by the art of alchemy. I heard that Senior Sister Mu is also an expert in it, so I wanted to ask you a thing or two." Lin Bai said casually.

"Then you should find my second senior brother. He sleeps with the alchemy furnace in his arms every day." Dugu Yan muttered, but finally led the way forward.

Arriving at the door, "Please in." Dugu Yan extended her hand and invited Lin Bai to come in.

When Lin Bai entered the door, Dugu Yan was about to follow him, but found that the door was closed.

The room was simply furnished, with only a few futons scattered around. Mu Zhen sat in front of a low table, supporting her chin with her left hand and playing with a lantern with her right hand.

"Sister Zhen, hehehe!" Lin Bai hurried forward, knelt beside her, and moved forward happily.

Seeing Lin Bai leaning forward, Mu Zhen stretched out her finger and pressed it against Lin Bai's forehead, "Little Wheel, don't touch me."

After she finished speaking, she pointed her finger at the candle, a few sparks popped up, and then an invisible barrier enveloped the two of them.

"It's okay now." Mu Zhen had a smile on her lips, her eyes were like water, and she looked even more charming under the candlelight.
