Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

"How lamentable that the vicissitudes of life are so similar."

"Like Mr. Danheng, I travel far from home."

"Returning now and seeing the old scenery, I can't help but feel a bit emotional."

"Aren't you Zhu Ming's spy sent to monitor Luofu?" Yan Huan asked curiously.

"?"

March 7th took a deep breath, then jumped onto Yan Huan, locking his neck tightly:

Are you out of your mind?!

"Who asks someone directly if they're wearing eyeliner?!"

Ling Sha smiled but did not answer.

Yanqing quickly spoke up, changing the subject:

"Well, the scenery here would probably be even better if it weren't for the Jianmu tree, haha..."

The roots of the Jianmu tree broke through the soil like vines and entwined themselves around various areas of the Dan Ding Si.

Although it has lost all its vitality, it is still eye-catching.

"Is that so?" Ling Sha said with a faint smile.

"I actually think the Jianmu trees here are quite spectacular."

Yanqing shook her head helplessly:

"No matter how magnificent it is, it is still a sign of the plague. Seeing the Jianmu tree rise again, everyone will inevitably feel uneasy."

Ling Sha replied with a smile:

"Once a seed is planted, no matter how much its growth is slowed, it will eventually sprout and bear fruit."

"In my humble opinion, the rebirth of the Jianmu tree is just like the reappearance of the Medicine King's secret teachings; it is inevitable."

"This seed was planted long ago when the ancient people of the Immortal Ship sought immortality."

"Good! Well said!!" Yan Huan immediately put on the pharmacist's hat, warmly grasped Ling Sha's hand, and patted it:

"Our Medicine King's secret teachings appreciate a young man with such discerning eyes as you!"

Come on, join us!

"Let me tell you a secret, we've even bribed the general! The path to immortality is just around the corner!!"

"Eh, really?" Ling Sha's eyes were burning with excitement.

"Of course it's true!" Yan Huan's face lit up with madness: "You're the Chief of the Pill Refining Department, which will make our actions much easier from now on!"

"How about we distribute elixirs to all the tourists at the Alchemy Bureau tomorrow?"

"Great!" Ling Sha exclaimed excitedly.

"But Mr. Yan Huan, you're exaggerating. The imitation doesn't look right."

Dan Heng spoke up:

"Miss Ling Sha, were you perhaps testing our stance just now?"

Ling Sha smiled but didn't say anything more.

"I was being rash. You are all witnesses to the Jianmu disaster, so I spoke a bit too much."

"I just have something I'd like to ask you all."

"What does Miss Ling Sha want to ask?" Dan Heng asked, puzzled.

Ling Sha smiled and revealed her purpose.

"I am fortunate to have been assigned by the Alliance to clean up the long-standing grime in the Pill Refining Department."

"To be honest, after some investigation, I only see that the Dan Ding Department is riddled with problems and has long since reached a point where it is beyond repair."

"I'd like to hear your opinions on the current situation of the Pill Refining Division."

Upon hearing this, Danheng thought for a moment and replied:

"Although I am a member of the Vidyadhara clan, I have been traveling far away for a long time, and like my two companions, I am an outsider."

"Therefore, Miss Lingsha should just take my opinion with a grain of salt."

Ling Sha reaches out:

"Mr. Danheng, please go ahead."

Danheng continued:

"For a long time, there has been a close cooperation between Luofu Chiming and Dan Ding Si."

"If Miss Ling Sha cannot distance herself from this situation, it will be very difficult to change the state of the Pill Refining Department."

Ling Sha nodded, "Thank you for your suggestion, Mr. Danheng. I will consider it carefully."

At this moment, Yanqing also spoke:

"Yanqing doesn't know much about politics, he only knows that the Medicine King's Secret Teachings have been operating in the Pill Refining Department for many years."

"If Miss Lingsha wants to eliminate its influence, she can discuss countermeasures with the General."

"Understood." Ling Sha looked at the two of them and smiled faintly.

“I am grateful to you both for your insightful teachings.”

"What's the point of what these two are saying?"

Yan Huan stepped forward, her expression serious:

"In my opinion, joining the Medicine King's secret teachings is the only right choice."

Ling Sha smiled:

"Yes, I will consider it. Thank you for your suggestion, Mr. Yan Huan."

"Your suggestion is even more absurd than theirs!" March 7th was speechless.

Ling Sha looked at the group and slowly spoke:

"The light arrows of the Emperor's Bow are incredibly powerful, capable of severing the Jianmu tree, but they cannot sever the desire of mortals to continue their existence."

"Just like Yunqi, although he can eliminate the remnants of the rebellious party of the Medicine King's Secret Teachings, he cannot soothe the people of the Dan Ding Division."

"The ancestors of the Immortal Ship knew this well, which is why they entrusted the responsibility of guarding the Jianmu Mystic Root to the Chiming Clan. But the Chiming is nothing more than a mortal thing..."

Ling Sha paused for a moment, then continued:

"As early as thirty years ago, my mentor, who was also the head of the Luofu Danding Bureau, had already sensed the undercurrents surging here and intended to rectify the situation."

“Then she must have failed.” Yan Huan shrugged.

"Yes." Ling Sha smiled.

"They were driven away by General Jingyuan."

Yan Qing: “???”

Chapter 888 You're being a little presumptuous

Yanqing felt somewhat dazed.

She had previously told Ling Sha that she could trust the general, but it turned out that her master was banished by the general himself.

"Is there some misunderstanding?!" Yanqing found it hard to believe.

Ling Sha smiled faintly:

"Although my mentor was skilled in medicine, he did not understand human nature."

"Although she intended to eliminate the malignant tumor hidden within the Dan Ding Division, she was unable to do so for a long time."

"In the end, she was framed and exiled to the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship by order of General Jingyuan."

"I was also implicated and had to leave Luofu."

Ling Sha gave Yan Qing a deep look.

"The situation at the Dan Ding Si has deteriorated to this day, and those responsible for this, besides the Medicine King's Secret Transmission, also include General Shence."

After a long silence, Ling Sha suddenly spoke:

"Oh dear, why has Lord Yanqing's expression changed?"

Seeing Yan Qing's dazed expression, Ling Sha smiled:

"Don't worry."

"I understand the principle that 'one in a position is not free to do as one pleases,' and I will not hold any resentment towards the general."

"After all, for adults our age... so-called personal grudges are actually a luxury."

Yanqing nodded, remained silent for a moment, and then a familiar voice came from not far away.

"Sister Lingsha, you're finally back! I've been waiting for so long!"

The visitor was none other than Yun Li. After leaving Sichen Palace, she came to Danding Division first to help Ling Sha take over the work.

"Yun Li?" Ling Sha smiled faintly.

"Perfect timing! Let me introduce you to this gentleman, Lord Yanqing, who is about your age. You two could..."

"No need." Yun Li crossed her arms, and seeing Yan Qing there as well, she gave a helpless look.

"What a small world... I never expected to run into you here."

"It's you?" Yanqing frowned slightly.

"Hey you, give me back my sword! I don't want your money."

"..." Ling Sha stared at the two of them, seemingly lost in thought.

"I understand, then let's skip the introduction."
