The Wheel-Turning Master.
Chapter 366: Great Strategies
Lu Qingyin and He Wenyao, the partners, or master and servant, actually cooperate seamlessly.
Generally speaking, Lu Qingyin gets all the big ideas, such as going to the Northern Wilderness or stealing treasures in Tiangong City.
But He Wenyao makes the decisions on small matters and does the specific things.
The previous treasure hunt was planned by Lu Qingyin, and then by He Wenyao.
He Wenyao was indeed capable. With a kind face and knowledge of cultivating spiritual plants, he was very popular in Tiangong City and made many friends with the Qiu Shui Sword Sect.
Because of this, He Wenyao went in and out of the inner city of Tiangong City and found out the treasure locations and guard arrangements in the inner city.
Then he made a plan. While the Nascent Soul ancestor of Qiu Shui Sword Sect was not at home, He Wenyao intercepted the trade route outside the city. Then he helped Qiu Shui Sword Sect's Jindan to go out and look for the enemy.
Lu Qingyin acted alone, but it turned out that He Wenyao's information was inaccurate. The other person had a Nascent Soul hiding at home!
Fortunately, the two were cautious and no one knew they knew each other. Although Lu Qingyin was seriously injured, He Wenyao was still a guest of honor in Qiu Shui Sword Sect.
"The fairy once said that a sect as big as this can only succeed with the support of both inside and outside forces. So we made preparations early on. Outsiders only know me, not the fairy! It can be seen that the fairy's talent is a hundred times better than mine!" Among He Wenyao's three sentences, two and a half were praising Lu Qingyin.
Lu Qingyin didn't appreciate it, and just said: "You and Lin Zhuanlun come up with a decision, I need to recover from my injuries!"
He Wenyao seemed to be used to being ignored. Seeing that Lu Qingyin didn't give him a good look, he still said bravely: "Don't worry, fairy. Lin Zhuanlun has many bad intentions. We will definitely succeed!" He didn't care about Lin Bai's presence. He worriedly reminded: "Fairy, take good care of your injuries."
"..." Lin Bai and Pei Ning didn't know what to say and just walked out.
With a howl, the snow leopard ran over and came forward obediently.
After teasing the snow leopard for a while, He Wenyao finally found it with a smile on his face. He looked very relaxed, as if his beloved thing was preserved and would not be ruined by others.
"Brother Zhuanlun, Fellow Daoist Pei." He Wenyao bowed, sat cross-legged, and leaned against the snow leopard. He put away his joy and became a little serious. "How is my hometown now? I have only heard about it in bits and pieces, but I don't know the truth. How did Ancestor Xiang reach the top? Did anyone help? Who is the sword immortal who destroyed several Yuanying with one sword?"
Lin Bai did not hide anything and told him everything.
After listening to this, He Wenyao was silent for a long time, and finally said: "If the fairy were here, she might be able to watch the battle and the thunder tribulation, so as to wash away the dust and make further progress on the great path."
Seeing that He Wenyao's mind was full of Lu Qingyin, Lin Bai was really too lazy to serve him, so he started talking about business.
He Wenyao took out the map of Tiangong City and a few portraits, and explained the situation of Qiu Shui Sword Sect in detail.
As Lin Bai had inquired before, Tiangong City was divided into two cities, the inner and outer cities. The outer city was the largest market town on Wanli Lake, with many cultivators coming and going. It was extremely prosperous and mixed with all kinds of people.
The inner city is the ancestral home of the Qiushui Sword Sect, and ordinary cultivators are not allowed to enter. In addition to the two Yuanying guards, there are also many Jindan cultivators, and most of the cultivators here are good at fighting, and they are not easy to deal with.
Seeing He Wenyao's intention to find out, Lin Bai asked about the Tianshan Sect.
Before heading north, Lin Bai received two letters from Aunt Zou. One was for the Tianwen Sect, and needed to be delivered to a Yuanying cultivator named Yue Chenzi.
The other letter was given to Yuexiachan, the master of the Ice Palace of Tianshan Sect.
The Tianwen Sect was a large sect in the Northern Wilderness. Everyone had heard of it. It was located in the far east of the Northern Wilderness and covered an area of tens of thousands of miles. In addition to the high-level cultivators at the Spiritualization stage, there were also many Nascent Soul cultivators.
The Tianshan Sect is not well-known. It is just a Nascent Soul Sect located west of Wanli Lake, only 30,000 miles away.
"I've heard of it. It seems to be a Yuanying Sect that has had dealings with the Qiushui Sword Sect." He Wenyao scratched his head. "But you know, in the Northern Wilderness, no one will look up to a family without a high-level Spiritualization Cultivator. Why are you asking about this?"
"If you want to ask why for everything, I will go to ask Fairy Lu." Lin Bai said.
"..." He Wenyao felt very aggrieved, "Lin Zhuanlun, I treat you as a good friend, why do you always use fairies to pressure me?"
Pei Ning laughed.
"My fault, my fault." Lin Bai sincerely admitted his mistake, held down He Wenyao's arm, and patted him to comfort him. "Once this matter is over, Pei Ning and I will leave and not disturb you and the fairy from traveling around the world."
"You..." He Wenyao was touched by Lin Bai's sincerity. He grabbed Lin Bai's arm and said sincerely, "I have been with the fairy for many years. I can see that she is happy when you come. She is really happy. You...or don't leave. I will leave. I...I'm fine...I will just watch you from a distance."
Lin Bai was stunned, and Pei Ning couldn't help scratching his head.
Not daring to mention Lu Qingyin again, Lin Bai discussed several plans, but was not satisfied with any of them. He planned to go to Tiangong City to take a look in person.
Pei Ning was left to look after Lu Qingyin, while Lin Bai followed He Wenyao to Tiangong City again.
After entering Tiangong City and arriving at the inner city gate, the gatekeeper greeted them politely.
"Have the evildoers who broke into the inner city and committed crimes a few days ago been brought to justice?" He Wenyao asked as if he was chatting casually.
"Reporting to you, senior, the murderer has been executed on the spot!" said the gatekeeper.
Lin Bai had figured out that these so-called powerful sects were actually all the same. They would make up stories when they couldn't handle something. Anyway, Lu Qingyin didn't dare to show up, nor did she dare to argue with them in person.
Especially now that the Qiu Shui Sword Sect is being suppressed by the Yu Xin Yi Yi Sect, they dare not show weakness and instead become even tougher.
Of course, it could be a trick used by others to make Lu Qingyin show up again. It could also be that Yuanying really thought Lu Qingyin was dead, after all, she survived a blow from Yuanying. Entering the inner city, you will see that this place is a completely different world. There are red flowers and green willows, beautiful mountains and clear waters, no ice and snow, but warm as spring.
There is a slight cool breeze, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
The inner city was originally located on a huge island, but outside the wall, with snow and wind everywhere, it seemed like two different worlds.
He Wen Yao was doing quite well in Tiangong City. After he entered the inner city of Tiangong City, many people greeted him and low-level disciples saluted him one after another.
Soon, we came to a broad, deep lake, rippling with water, attracting birds and cranes, and fish swimming in it. The lake was deep green, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, and it was quiet and peaceful, soothing the body and mind.
This lake is called Qiushui, and is located in the middle of the inner city island. It is also the origin of the Qiushui Sword Sect. It is rumored that there is a source of underground fire under the water, which nourishes hundreds of miles of land on the island.
The Qiu Shui Sword Sect even used this opportunity to set up a magic circle, which made the four seasons here as spring-like.
I heard that the leader of the newly built Yuxin Yiyi Sect once came to visit in person and was very friendly, but he stayed for more than half a year. After returning, he started to find fault with Qiushui Sword Sect. It is rumored that he was coveting the blessed land.
Guided by He Wen Yao, Lin Bai first visited several fellow practitioners, pretending to be a casual cultivator and using the name of Zhuan Lun. With the help of his alchemy skills, he quickly made friends with several fellow practitioners of the same level.
After staying here for half a month, I found that Lin Bai had a good temper, was not arrogant, and was not secretive when discussing things. After deliberately making friends with others, he actually had better popularity than He Wenyao.
After getting to know each other, Lin Bai tried his best to inquire about the Tianwen Sect, looking like a curious child. Anyway, the Tianwen Sect was a big deal, and the Qigong cultivators on the street would talk about it. However, no one doubted Lin Bai, and just thought it was the habit of a casual cultivator.
More than ten days later, someone came to test and try to recruit Lin Bai.
"I am used to living a carefree life and cannot stand being bound. Of course, I am just an alchemist and I don't like fighting. I just like to sit and practice quietly, refine a furnace of pills from time to time, and study some pill recipes..." Lin Bai didn't say anything definite.
“To be honest with you, my disciples mostly practice the art of fighting, and haven’t made much progress in alchemy.” This disciple of the Qiu Shui Sword Sect is named Qiu Yucan. He is a descendant of the sect leader’s family and is considered to be a man of his word.
"You are too modest, fellow Taoist." Lin Bai said with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuanlun is truly talented. I can see that," Qiu Yucan said.
After testing the waters, Qiu Yucan took Lin Bai to their alchemy room, met the old alchemist of Qiu Shui Sword Sect, and gave him some elixirs.
Seeing that Lin Bai seemed to be interested, he praised the elixir even more. Qiu Yucan showed his true colors and said that he wanted to exchange the elixir formula for Lin Bai's guarding for a hundred years, and provide sufficient offerings. He needed to offer elixirs every month, perform the duty of preaching, and go out to fight the enemy when necessary.
This is almost how Lu Qingyin treats He Wenyao!
Lin Bai was so angry that he laughed, but he didn't say no. He just did the same as Lu Qingyin, "I don't treat you as an outsider, but don't even think about touching my hand."
Ten days later, Lin Bai had figured out the situation, but he discovered that Qiu Yucan seemed to have a new lover and was no longer enthusiastic about recruiting him. He could not be found even when he went to his house.
"It turns out that Fairy Lu has profound skills. After so many years, He Wenyao is still as loyal as a dog and has never changed his original intention. But I have been abandoned by her..." Lin Bai was very distressed and planned to go back to learn from Lu Qingyin.
"Let's go? Let's go back and discuss it." That evening, He Wenyao came to the door. He was very anxious. Sometimes he said that the fairy was so seriously injured, and sometimes he said that it would definitely work this time.
"I'll go and ask around." Lin Bai felt that there must be a reason why Qiu Yucan was no longer enthusiastic.
He Wenyao had received Lu Qingyin's order before coming here. This trip was led by Lin Bai, so he could only give some words of advice.
Lin Bai immediately looked for some acquaintances and took a walk around the alchemy room before he finally got some definite news: it was said that the Qiu Shui Sword Sect had invited the leader of the Tianshan Sect to act as a middleman and planned to make peace with the Yu Xin Yi Yi Sect. From now on, there would be peace between the Qiu Shui Sword Sect and the Yu Xin Yi Yi Sect.
The Tianshan Sect was the one Lin Bai wanted to visit, but this time it was the Sect Leader who came, not Yuexiachan, the Lord of the Ice Palace.
But we can wait and see. If Yuexiachan also comes, then things will be easier. After all, this time it was Qiushui Sword Sect that asked Tianshan Sect to do something.
"Qiu Yucan is a relative of the leader of the Qiu Shui Sword Sect, so he must know some inside information... No wonder they didn't recruit me. It seems that they don't need outsiders to work hard. But he abandoned me in the end. He lacks the experience of Jiang Xingchi. He is more attentive than Wang Yueying." Lin Bai returned to his guest house with a lot of thoughts in mind.
He Wenyao had been waiting for a long time. He had already made a comprehensive plan. "I have three strategies: the best, the middle and the worst. Which one do you think the fairy will use?"
He talked for a long time, and it was nothing more than the last time. After the two Yuanying left home, he would lead away the other Jindan, and then Lin Pei and the others would conspire to steal the treasure. However, the Tiangong City Mountain Protection Formation was too large and opened slowly. Even if it was discovered, they could still escape.
He Wenyao did not consider letting Lu Qingyin take action. He felt sorry for Lu Qingyin, so he only let Lin Pei fight.
"Brother Yao, are you only able to steal and rob? You have disgraced the Qiaoshan heir!" Lin Bai scolded.
"If we don't steal or rob, then how can we do it?" He Wenyao had been outside for a long time in recent years and had gradually become bolder, but he still couldn't figure it out.
"Brother Yao, cultivation is not about fighting and killing, it's about the ways of the world!" Lin Bai patted He Wenyao's shoulder heavily, "Why do we need to fight and kill if we can talk it out?"
“You…” He Wenyao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, “You hooked up with Qiu Yucan? You…you’re so tall!”
He grabbed Lin Bai's arm and kept praising him, "High! Really high! Why didn't I think of that? He is indeed someone who can even take down Zou Mi, a high-level Yuanying cultivator!"
He Wenyao had a look of admiration on his face, but then he seemed to remember something and his face turned sad again. Then he seemed to have figured something out and looked relieved. He even muttered something about how a Yuanying cultivator could like you and how the fairy treated you very well. It was obvious that the fairy's vision was not inferior to that of a Yuanying cultivator. (End of this chapter)
