The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 291 Agreed
"Don't leave yet."

Mu Zhen went to Yushan Mountain with Dugu Yan to rest, but Lin Bai grabbed her sleeve.

"You..." Maybe it was because Duguyan was beside her, Mu Zhen blushed a little and asked, "Why are you so anxious?"

"How can I not be anxious?" Lin Bai asked seriously.

"There is still some sword intent in my body, and my wounds haven't healed yet." Although Mu Zhen said this, his voice was soft, and his eyes were full of water. He whispered, "It's not too late to talk about it when we get there. I'll make you happy at last."

Dugu Yan looked at the two people in front of him, not understanding what they were talking about, but he always felt something was wrong.

"It's not this!" Lin Bai really wanted to open the lid of Sister Zhen's head to see what was inside. He grabbed her sleeve and refused to let go, saying seriously: "When we entered the secret realm earlier, you promised to give me a life-saving treasure. You can't go back on your word!"

Lin Bai thought that with Sister Zhen's personality, he couldn't get anything in bed, so he might as well just say it directly.

"..." Mu Zhen was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, but could not utter a word. Finally, he smiled disdainfully and said, "Lin Zhuanlun, you are judging others by your own mean mind! I have never broken my promises in my life!"

"Then when will you give it to me?" Lin Bai urged, fearing that the person would run away without a word.

"Wait until I recover from my injuries, then I'll lay out the things for you to choose from one by one." Mu Zhen said unhappily.

"Sister Zhen, you are so nice!" Lin Bai was satisfied.

"You go find Pei Ning. I need to stay in seclusion for a few days to recuperate!" Mu Zhen was very angry. He waved his sleeves and flew away first.

Dugu Yan wanted to follow, but was stopped by Lin Bai again.

"She lives in your Yushan Mountain. You must keep a close eye on her and don't let her run away." Lin Bai knew that Sister Zhen was a person of her word, but there was no guarantee that she would go back on her word.

"This..." Dugu Yan tilted her head, looking embarrassed.

Seeing that she was getting nervous, Lin Bai waved his hands and said, "Since it's difficult, forget it. I'll ask your cousin Dugu Jing to help."

"No, no, no." Dugu Yan quickly apologized, "She is learning the formation from you, so there is no need to let her run around. I will just keep an eye on Senior Mu."

Seeing that she had given in, Lin Bai did not pursue the matter and asked again, "Has anything happened in the mountains recently? Any news from Qiaoshan?"

"How should I know?" Dugu Yan shook his head.

"..." Lin Bai felt that this girl was a disciple of Chen Tianren after all, and she was running around in the hall, but she was still like a blind person. She was considered capable.

In such a great hidden sect, Mo Yingcheng is the only one who does things.

"Is Pei Ning at Wenjian Mountain?" Lin Bai asked again.

"She is in Meishan. Qu Ruyi and Huang Ruhua came back a few days ago and asked Pei Ning to discuss Taoism with them!" Dugu Yan replied.

"Why don't you go?" Lin Bai asked casually.

Dugu Yan straightened her back a little, "My eldest brother is not at home, so I have to support him in the front hall. The entire Daoyin Sect is on my shoulders, so how can I have the time to play with them?"

It sounded as if the Daoyin Sect would disband without her.

"..." Lin Bai rubbed his brows, forced a smile, and praised: "That's true. Now that Brother Mo is back, you can have a few days of leisure."

"That's not necessarily true. Senior Brother may not be able to do without me." Dugu Yan shook his head solemnly.

Lin Bai was too lazy to say anything more to her and went straight to Meishan.

When we arrived at the place, we stopped outside the courtyard where Min Hengbo was meditating, and saw the gatekeeper Min Qianqian.

The girl was carrying a wooden sword on her back and holding a whisk in her hand. She saluted Lin Bai in a stupid manner.

"What should you call me?" Lin Bai asked.

Min Qianqian put her fingers to her mouth, thought for a while, and finally shook her head.

Lin Bai tapped her between the eyebrows and made her squat, then walked towards the yard.

There were quite a few people in the courtyard, including Pei Ning, Huang Ruhua, Qu Ruyi, Dugu Jing and Shen Qiyun.

Judging from the situation, they should be holding a Taoist meeting, and now it is Qu Ruyi's turn to give a speech.

Seeing the Jindan cultivator coming, everyone stood up and saluted, even the green snake nodded and bowed obediently.

Qu Ruyi hurried forward, grabbed Lin Bai, and after boasting for a while, asked Lin Bai to tell him about the secret realm so that he could share his experience with everyone.

Lin Bai was naturally not in a hurry, and asked when Qu Ruyi and Huang Ruhua would come back.

It turned out that Qu Ruyi was very quick to react. When she heard that someone had died in the trial, she took Huang Ruhua with her without saying a word and went back to Daoyin Sect.

"I think you are not a good person. The death of Ying Wangtian and others might be related to you. Xiao Huang and I are familiar with you. We have been drinking with you and have been seen by many people. It would be bad if we are caught and questioned by them. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. I am alone and weak, so I can only run away first." Qu Ruyi was very sincere.

Lin Bai didn't know what to say, but he admired her more in his heart.

"Did Senior Brother return safely?" Shen Qiyun asked with concern.

"He's back too." Lin Bai said.

"Mu Zhen is back too, right?" Qu Ruyi asked curiously.

"I'm injured and still recuperating." Lin Bai said.

After chatting for a while, Lin Bai didn't get to talk to Sister Pei, but was instead dragged to talk about the secret realm.

Lin Bai was a down-to-earth man and did not hide anything. He immediately talked about what he had seen and heard during the trip. He only mentioned the difficulty of climbing the mountain and omitted the incident of killing someone to get the treasure.

After talking for a long time, everyone listened attentively, with fascination in their eyes.

When night fell, seeing that no one was about to leave, Lin Bai pretended that his injury had not healed and he needed to rest, and then the group of tactless people dispersed.

However, Lin Bai's injuries have not yet healed. There is still some residual sword intent in his body. Although it is extremely subtle, it is like a cancer attached to the bone and it is difficult to completely remove it no matter what.

Although the intention of destruction is weakening, it will definitely have some impact on cultivation. We still need to think of a way. We can't just wait for it to slowly disappear.

Moreover, if we wait in vain, it may take three to five years, or even three to five hundred years, which is extremely unwise.

When he came back, Lin Bai discussed the matter with Mu Zhen and Mo Yingcheng. Mo Yingcheng said he would go and ask Chen Tianren.

He pulled Sister Pei into the room and pressed the protective formation to block out the sound.

"What you said just now about the trip to the secret realm was not entirely true. I'm sure there is some hidden story behind it?" Pei Ning asked with a smile.

"I thought it wouldn't be difficult, but I didn't expect it to be life-threatening again." Lin Bai held her hand, "Look, I'm really badly hurt."

Pei Ning took Lin Bai's hand, probed his spiritual sense a little, and frowned.

After half a minute, Pei Ning finally withdrew his hand, rubbed his brows, and said, "Really domineering."

She looked at Lin Bai and said, "If he has a body that is in the foundation building stage, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to walk a hundred feet. If he doesn't temper his body, he might be wiped out on the spot."

"That's right!" Lin Bai also looked like he had survived a disaster, "I almost died in there!" As he spoke, he grabbed Pei Ning's hands.

"If I die in there, I'm sure I'll have Fellow Daoist Mu by my side, so I won't be lonely." Pei Ning smiled.

"That doesn't mean anything." Lin Bai pretended not to understand and said seriously: "Climbing the mountain with heavy loads and being ravaged by the sword, I have gained a lot. Whether it is the golden elixir in my body, my sea of ​​consciousness, or my physical body, they all feel more solid. This is secondary. The main thing is that my state of mind has changed. The difficult climb is like the road to seeking the Tao. Although it is harder than climbing to the sky, my heart to seek the Tao has become more determined."

"In that case, have you given up lust?" Pei Ning asked with a smile. "Love between men and women is the truth of heaven and earth, how can it be thrown away?" Lin Bai held her hand tightly and whispered, "Do you feel that your natal sword tomb is compatible with the sword intent in my body? Although this sword intent is overbearing, it is indeed close to Taoism. It is emitted by a great power who can fight with the Master of Wuxiang. If you can understand the beauty of it, you will benefit a lot in the future."

Pei Ning thought about it seriously for a while, shook his head and said, "My cultivation level is too low, and there is too little left in your body. I can understand it by looking at the big river, but it is difficult to see the big picture from the small details."

"That's easy." Lin Bai smiled confidently and patted the gourd beside him. Then, a number of flying knives flew out one after another, with a sense of vastness and endlessness, as if they could wipe out everything.

"If the sword's will entered your flesh and blood body, you would naturally be able to feel it personally. However, your body is too weak now, and your realm is not high enough, which will inevitably affect your cultivation. It is better to find another way."

As Lin Bai spoke, eighteen flying knives stabbed at him, and the destructive power attached to the flying knives immediately entered his body.

"..." Pei Ning was stunned, "You...you are doing this for me, why do you have to do this?" She spoke softly, and walked forward to check Lin Bai's wound with heartache.

The flying knife was retracted into the gourd and the wound healed slowly, but the sense of destruction had already entered the body.

"As long as you can make progress, what does it matter if I get hurt?" Lin Bai held her hand.

"Then hurry up, or you will suffer." Pei Ning immediately extended his spiritual sense, wanting to gain a detailed understanding, but was stopped by Lin Bai.

"I have a better idea." Lin Bai came closer and explained to her with a chuckle.

After Pei Ning finished listening, she sneered, "I knew you had bad intentions!"

"When yin and yang are combined and heaven and earth are turned upside down, one can gain more." Lin Bai said seriously.

"You know best." Pei Ning said this, waving his sleeves to wipe away the candlelight, and whispered, "Hurry up."

Her voice was soft, which was seldom the case.

On the third day, a visitor came to visit.

"Ancestor, please have a chat with me, sir." Dugu Jing stood outside the door and saluted.

This was Dugu Hao's invitation, and Lin Bai had already received the other person's favor, so naturally he couldn't refuse.

Pei Ning was still sitting in meditation at this time. In the past two days, she had been trying to comprehend the sword intent from time to time, but had gained nothing. On the contrary, due to her realm and body, she was very tired, and both her sea of ​​consciousness and sea of ​​qi seemed unstable.

What the powerful left was indeed extraordinary. Even though Sister Pei had an excellent talent in sword cultivation, it was difficult for her to gain any insights in a short period of time, and she was harmed instead.

After closing the door, Lin Bai left Sister Pei to meditate in silence, and followed Dugu Jing to Wangu Mountain.

"It's been a long time since we last met. Have you made any progress in the art of formation?" Lin Bai finally remembered that although he and this girl were not in the official relationship of master and disciple, they were in fact teaching each other.

"I was just about to ask you for advice, sir." Dugu Jing was very well-behaved and really observed the etiquette of a disciple.

There was no hurry to travel, so Lin Bai gave her some pointers, thinking about going back to teach the girl again. Who knows, she might be able to go further in the art of formations in the future.

When we arrived at Wangu Mountain, old man Dugu Hao had already come out to greet us.

They went in to chat and drink tea. There was nothing important to talk about. They just congratulated Lin Bai on returning from the trial. After saying a lot of nonsense, they asked Lin Bai how long he would stay.

So you're afraid that I'll run away and not care about your Dugu Jing? After all, Lin Bai had eaten someone else's food, so it was not easy for him to just run away, so he said, "To be honest, old sir, I got injured on this trip, and I need to recuperate in your sect for a few days. After I recover, I will naturally return to Qiaoshan."

As he spoke, Lin Bai pointed at Dugu Jing who was waiting beside him, and continued, "This girl is quite talented in formations, so it's a good opportunity to train her these days. If she has time in the future, let her go to Qiaoshan to take a walk and see more of the scenery."

Dugu Hao was relieved to see that Lin Bai did not eat for free. He thought that what Qu Ruyi said about Lin Zhuanlun eating and running away might not be entirely true.

After chatting for a long time, Dugu Hao took out some healing pills and let Lin Bai leave.

"Follow closely and learn. I heard that during the Jiuzhashan trip, even the second disciple of Lihuo Zhenren was killed, but Pianlin Zhuanlun was intact. His skills must be extremely high." Dugu Hao pulled Dugu Jing and kindly advised, "There are few people in our sect who are proficient in formations. If you can learn it, you will definitely be of great use in the sect in the future. You are not as lucky as Yan'er and cannot worship under Chen Tianren, but you have to strengthen yourself."

"Yes." Dugu Jing leaned forward and responded.

The two talked for a long time, and then Dugu Jing went to Meishan.

While allowing Sister Pei to comprehend the meaning of the sword, Lin Bai also took time to teach Dugu Jing, and also had to deal with Qu Ruyi and Huang Ruhua who came to his door from time to time.

Another five days passed like this, and when I was in meditation, I received a letter from outside.

"What's bothering me?" Lin Bai opened the door and saw Dugu Yan waiting at the door with a sword in his arms.

When Dugu Yan saw Lin Bai open the door, she stood on tiptoe to peek inside.

In the past few days, Dugu Yan heard that since Lin Zhuanlun came back, he had detained Pei Ning and did not allow her to go out, and no news about Pei Ning had been released.

Although Dugu Yan had never had sex, she was well-versed in Taoist scriptures, so she naturally knew what was going on. Moreover, Qu Ruyi had sworn that something was about indulging in lust, so she was naturally very curious.

“I didn’t expect that Pei Ning, who has thick eyebrows and big eyes, usually doesn’t say a word and is also unrestrained!”

Dugu Yan laughed in her heart, then quickly bowed to Lin Bai and said respectfully, "Big Brother invites you."

"Where is Brother Mo?" Lin Bai asked.

"It's at Yushan Mountain, Senior Mu is here too!" Dugu Yan replied immediately.

Lin Bai didn't ask any more questions. He just closed the door with a flick of his sleeves and flew away.

Dugu Yan did not follow, but pulled Dugu Jing instead. The two sisters started chatting, "Can Pei Ning withstand the body of a golden elixir?"

"How should I know?" Dugu Jing sat on the ground drawing the formation, too lazy to pay attention to Dugu Yan.

"Hehe, if I fight with Pei Ning right now, she will definitely not be able to win." Dugu Yan actually became confident.

When Lin Bai arrived at Yushan Mountain, he saw Mo Yingcheng and Mu Zhen chatting under a tree in the courtyard.

Since we were all acquaintances, there was no need for formalities, so we just went forward and sat down.

"Master checked the remaining sword intent in my body and found it very strange." Mo Yingcheng poured tea for Lin Bai and said with a wry smile: "But if you want to get rid of it all, Master has no good way. It can only depend on my own cultivation to improve, or it may be slowly eliminated. Or maybe there is a precious elixir."

"Actually, this is not a bad thing." Mu Zhen was open-minded. "The remaining sword intent in the body is very little, and it has little effect on cultivation. Moreover, this destructive intent is constantly lingering in the body, which has a stimulating effect. There is a saying among the mortals that if you cannot rule your family and your people, and if you cannot defeat foreign enemies, your country will always perish. Isn't this exactly what it means?"

"Junior Sister Mu and my master thought the same thing." Mo Yingcheng praised.

The three of them chatted for a while, and Mo Yingcheng looked at Lin Bai.

"Master likes Pei Ning very much. He knows that she has excellent talent, a strong determination to seek the truth, and has also practiced Master's sword skills. Therefore, Master wants to accept her as a disciple. I wonder if my dear brother would be willing to help her make this happen?" Mo Yingcheng asked with a smile.

For a Foundation Establishment cultivator to become a disciple of a Nascent Soul cultivator, who is also a sword cultivator, is something that others would be happy to have.

Now that the eldest disciple of the Nascent Soul stage came to ask, it was already a great honor for Lin Bai and Pei Ning.

If Lin Bai refused, he would be a fool.

"Pei Ning is of course willing!" Lin Bai immediately agreed and stepped forward to grab Mo Yingcheng's hand, "Brother Mo, you are such a good person!"

Chen Tianren was already famous. Although he was a sword cultivator, he was a very kind person. Moreover, Lin Bai had been with Mo Yingcheng for a long time, and had also interacted with other people under Chen Tianren. He knew the master by seeing his disciple, which showed that Chen Tianren was indeed like his name.

If Sister Pei could become Chen Tianren's disciple, it would be a hundred benefits with no harm at all.

"All disciples under Chen Tianren must abandon sexual desires." Mu Zhen said with a smile.

"Is there such a thing?" Lin Bai was shocked.

"Junior Sister Mu, please don't scare him." Mo Yingcheng smiled and waved his hands, "Love between men and women is something that both parties agree on. Master will only help them succeed, how could he break up a couple?"
