Chapter 395 Let Me Play a Little (End of Volume)
At dusk, at the Confucian Temple.

The Confucian Temple is located in the western part of the city, opposite the Imperial Observatory. The Imperial College is located nearby. The temple enshrines the Confucian sage and other sages and worthies from past dynasties.

The Confucianism aims to govern the world, bring peace to the people, and educate the world. This is different from the Taoist practice of seeking longevity. Therefore, the Confucian Temple is basically only visited by scholars on pilgrimage, and very few people who practice Taoism come here.

However, the number of people who perform sacrifices in the Confucian Temple is not small.

In the ancient, barbaric era, everyone was prey to the strong. No matter how good one's knowledge was, it could not be passed down without solid strength to support it. The nineteen sages and worthies enshrined in the temple all had cultivation levels of six or seven, and Confucianism also followed the path of martial arts.

Reaching the pinnacle of martial arts is extremely difficult, but becoming an ancestor means being invincible. It is the existence of these people that established Confucianism as the foremost of the three major schools of thought.

Ye Yunchi is a Confucian student, but he is actually a student of the Li family. If we trace his lineage back, he can trace it back to the students of the Confucian sage. Now that he has come to the capital, he must visit the Confucian Temple.

At this moment, Ye Yunchi stood in the spacious hall, his gaze fixed on an empty seat on the west side.

During the turmoil caused by witchcraft, many buildings in the capital were damaged. The current Confucian Temple is a reconstruction after the war.

In the eyes of the world, the Twin Saints Shrine is a sacred, solemn, and dignified place, comparable to a deity descended to earth.

But those who had met Ye Sheng, such as Wei Wuyi, knew that Ye Sheng was not like that at all. Not only was his "Blind Sword Technique" infamous, but he also liked to pose as a chivalrous hero before fighting. When he went to school, he would study Qingping Jushi's masterpiece and even wrote his own notebook.

Strictly speaking, Ye Sheng was a Confucian wandering knight who yearned for the martial world. Due to his talent and the times, he took on the responsibility of the entire world and became the swordsman on the mountain peak, using the righteous path as a shackle and the world as a lock.
After the war, Ye Sheng settled all the affairs of the world, and his true nature was exposed for a period of time. When the Confucian Temple was built, he asked the court to leave an empty space for him, which was equivalent to leaving a blank page in the family tree, specifically to record his amazing deeds. If it weren't for the inauspiciousness of sacrificing a living person, the statue would probably have been placed next to the Supreme Sage Confucius.

Ye Yunchi had never met Ye Sheng, and at the very beginning, he didn't even know who his biological father was. He only knew that Ye Sheng was a wandering knight who would start a relationship and then abandon his wife.

As she grew older, she kept encountering opportunities and magical weapons during her studies, which made her realize that there was someone above her, and she gradually guessed that person's identity.

Her name was originally 'Jun Chi', given to her by her mother. However, after she learned that the person was still alive, she became very angry and changed it to 'Yun Chi'.

Ye Yunchi had always wanted to see that person, to question why he left back then, and to get an explanation, but he had never been able to meet him. He was now in seclusion, hoping that one day he could help his mother get revenge.

But the higher she climbed on the path of cultivation, the more she realized the true value of the four characters "Shuang Sheng Ye Ci".

Ye Sheng was only fifty years old when he quelled the rebellion of the Witchcraft Cult. Back then, when Fengbo Lou Xian Deng held a meeting, Shang Lianbi sat next to him and listened to Ye Sheng speak.

She had cultivated for over sixty years; not to mention pacifying the world, even the henchmen of Shang Lianbi's apprentices could fight her to a standstill.

This disparity even led her to believe that Ye Ci was too ashamed to face her, which was why he refused to see her...

Ye Yunchi stood alone in the Confucian Temple, his mind racing with thoughts. He pondered for a long time, but seeing no one, he knew his thoughts would lead nowhere. Finally, he sighed softly, focusing his attention on personal matters. He went to the statue of the Confucian sage and silently repented.
“From childhood I have always kept in mind propriety, righteousness, integrity and a sense of shame, but now I have failed to uphold the teachings of my predecessors and have developed feelings for a married man who is decades younger than me. I am now ashamed to face the sages of the past…”

Words filled with self-reproach yet without regret echoed in the Confucian Temple, where incense smoke curled upwards.

The solemn and dignified statues of the sages naturally could not respond, but the sound traveled through the white stone tiles to the earth, and then along the endless loess and rock layers to the depths of the earth, all the way to the netherworld.

Beneath the Nine Netherworlds lies not the Netherworld Palace, but a black abyss.

The Black Abyss stretched to the east, west, north, and south, with no end in sight. Only a bronze-yellow Qilin, its body radiating light, crouched in the endless void, one of its legs broken.

Endless energy from all directions converged and surged out from the broken crack, forcibly bound by an invisible force, transforming into a colorful prosthetic leg.

At the center of the radiant light was a large cauldron, over ten feet long and six feet wide, resembling a small house. However, compared to the enormous prosthetic leg, it was like a speck of dust being trampled under a toe.

A figure dressed in a scholar's robe, holding a large cauldron in one hand, hovered in the void, gazing upwards as if listening to some words. After a long while, he softly uttered:
"This little bastard, 'Stand up to the principles of heaven and earth, and establish a destiny for the people...' I really don't believe your nonsense. When we get out of here, I'll break your legs..."
-
It's getting dark.

Xie Jinhuan sat under the plaque that read "Upright Gentleman," flipping through documents about the Northern Zhou Dynasty and even the grasslands. Suddenly, he felt something, looked up at the setting sun outside the door, and frowned.

Lin Wanyi leaned against him and looked him over, then pushed up her small glasses as she saw him:

"what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just felt a chill down my back, like someone was cursing me."

"Is it Sect Leader Nangong who has arrived?"

Lin Wanyi looked around, searching for traces of the Fairy of the Brilliant Brilliant.

Xie Jinhuan carefully sensed the surroundings and even had the ghost help him investigate. Finding nothing amiss, he shook his head and smiled.
"It's probably that old man Lü Yan. We'll deal with him when we get to the north."

Lin Wanyi was puzzled, thinking that Xie Jinhuan must be tired from seeing too much. Seeing that no one was around, she sat up slightly, her face flushed, and unbuttoned her clothes, lifting up her black lace undergarment:
"You must be thirsty after watching for so long, have a drink of water and take a break."

Xie Jinhuan's pupils contracted as he realized that Wanyi had actually taken the 'Ah Huan's Child-Making Pill,' and he immediately tossed the book aside.
"Mwah~~"

"Hey? Be a little gentler..."

Lin Wanyi had tried driving her master's car before, but this was her first time. Seeing this, she shrank her shoulders slightly, but still bit her lower lip and hugged Xie Jinhuan, carefully looking outside to avoid being discovered.

She waited there for a long time without seeing anyone, and just after nursing the baby for a couple of times, she heard footsteps coming from the corridor outside.

Tread~
boo~
Xie Jinhuan quickly sat up straight and picked up the book again.

Lin Wanyi quickly closed her clothes and put on a proper posture to pour tea. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a little Taoist nun in a white dress walking in through the main entrance.

?

Lin Wanyi paused, her tension instantly turning into the annoyance of having her good time interrupted:
"How did you come?"

Linghu Qingmo was naturally there to settle scores, and he walked up to them at this moment:
"I'll accompany him in his practice. You must be tired after a long day. Go back and rest."

Lin Wanyi was taken aback. Seeing that this young Taoist nun had actually come to give her the order to leave, she certainly wouldn't get up.

"Practice martial arts? Do you know how?"

Linghu Qingmo was clearly unaware that practicing martial arts in the boudoir had another meaning, and sat down beside him:
"Since you're better than me, why do you still want to practice together?"

Together?! Lin Wanyi blinked, also finding it strange, and nodded after thinking for a moment:
"Fine, let's go together. If you dare, why shouldn't I? Elbow, let's go back inside."

Linghu Qingmo frowned:
"Why go back inside? It's spacious enough here, and you're complaining that it's too small and your butt is too big to fit?"

"Hey?!"

Lin Wanyi was amused by these words. Seeing how impetuous this young Taoist nun was, and how she intended to cause trouble in the main room, she didn't say anything more. She knelt down beside her, unbuttoned her clothes again, and leaned closer to Ah Huan, who was looking her up and down:

"Come on, let's continue. Ah~ open your mouth..."

Snapped--

The moment the movement was made, a light tapping sound came from the table next to him.

Linghu Qingmo was pondering how Wanyi should practice her skills when he discovered that she had directly pulled out the 'Ah Huan's Happy Bowl,' and immediately blushed:

"what you do?!"

Lin Wanyi silenced the man with a kiss and said matter-of-factly:
"Practicing martial arts? Didn't you want to join me? Come on."

"What kind of kung fu are you practicing?"

Lin Wanyi realized that the young Taoist nun seemed to be seriously discussing meditation and practicing martial arts, and her heart skipped a beat, but she wasn't intimidated:
"The dual cultivation techniques of the Witch Cult are also available in the Alchemy Sect. You don't know them? If you don't, then go rest. Who has time to sit in meditation with you late at night?"

Linghu Qingmo opened her mouth, feeling that she might not be able to handle this situation...

But if she couldn't handle it, she could only cover her face and run away, leaving the man to this slutty woman to play with as she pleased, while she could only hug her knees and remain silent...

I got scolded by my master yesterday; even a clay Buddha has a temper...

Linghu Qingmo was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth, got up, and pulled Xie Jinhuan upstairs:
“Dual cultivation is only for one person. What kind of talk is it for three people? You go back first, I'll practice with him.”

Lin Wanyi didn't believe the young Taoist nun would dare to do something serious, and even if she did, she wouldn't leave; she followed her upstairs.
"Don't I know your temper? You became all effeminate the moment I left, blushing for half the night over a kiss, and you even practiced martial arts, pfft~..."

Linghu Qingmo's eyes darkened slightly at such sarcastic remarks, and he dragged Xie Jinhuan, who had been silently acting as a prop, to Jinhuan Pavilion.

Upon entering, they discovered a new chair inside...

Lin Wanyi wasn't in a hurry. She simply sat down in a chair with an air of nonchalance and gestured to the large red round bed next to her.
"Come on, I won't bully the younger one, I'll let you go first. If you can practice with him once, I'll go back and rest."

Linghu Qingmo wasn't inexperienced in doing outrageous things, and now that the die was cast, he hesitated for a moment before lowering the curtain to block the view, sitting down in front of her, pulling the blanket over his hands, and secretly hitting Ah Huan...

rustling...

?

Lin Wanyi, with her legs crossed and leaning back in her chair, observed like an older sister assessing her younger sister. At first, she was quite surprised, thinking that this little Taoist nun had changed her ways. But after watching for a while, she was speechless.

"What are you doing?"

Linghu Qingmo's cheeks were flushed, but he still forced a show of strength:
"Is it any of your business? That's how the Dan Ding Sect practices..."

"Huh? You think I've never seen this before..."

Lin Wanyi originally wanted to say that Hao Hao Fairy had extraordinary driving skills, but fearing it would cause trouble, she changed her words and said:

"If you can't rest, go and take a break. Don't disturb a man's rest. How can he be comfortable if you keep doing this?"

Linghu Qingmo turned to look at Xie Jinhuan:
Are you comfortable?

Xie Jinhuan was certainly comfortable, but if he spoke carelessly at this moment, he wouldn't get any food. After careful consideration, he smiled and said:

"It's good, it would be even better if it could be better..."

Lin Wanyi interjected, "Did you hear that? Something even better, right? Why don't you go play with Zisu..."

Linghu Qingmo's eyes darkened slightly. After a moment's consideration, he covered himself with the thin blanket, leaving only Xie Jinhuan's head exposed, and then hid under the covers...

rustling...

Seeing the commotion inside the tent, Lin Wanyi felt it was like pushing a watermelon, so she didn't urge them any further. After watching for a while, she suddenly felt like a victim watching a blond-haired man ruin his lover!
Lin Wanyi pursed her lips, then got up and lifted the curtain:
"Alright, let Auntie play for a bit..."

"You said you left on your own, so what are you doing here?"

"You didn't actually do it, can't I teach you?"

"I know how, I don't need you to teach me..."

Lin Wanyi lifted the thin blanket and squeezed inside, snatching food from Mo's mouth:
"I'm going to teach you anyway. You're so young, and you're already trying to do fancy tricks..."

"you……"

Then the two of them started fighting in bed...

Crackling...

Xie Jinhuan dared not laugh, and quickly stepped between the two to break up the fight. The sky gradually darkened amidst their playful bickering...
-
Volume 6, "Winter's Deepening of Bones," is complete.

Volume 7 is still undecided, please look forward to it or 2...
