"Understood," Xu Qi'an and Chu Yuanzhen said at the same time.
Li Lingsu secretly sighed, these two seemed not very enthusiastic, but they cared so much about their brotherhood.
What a good man!
Double Blade Sect.
Upon learning of the arrival of the three masters, Liu Yun, the eldest disciple of the Double Blade Sect, personally came out to greet them.
This Liu Yun is tall and slender, with wheat-colored skin, bright eyes, full lips, and delicate features.
Chu Yuanzhen nudged Xu Qi'an with his sword sheath, "Look at the way the Holy Son looks at her, could this be another one of his lovers?"
Xu Qi'an gasped, because Li Lingsu was looking at Liu Yun with deep affection, as if they were a couple separated for many years.
“Miss Liu Yun, my name is Li Lingsu, and I have admired you for many years.”
"You and Rongrong from Wanhualou in Jianzhou are known as the four beauties of the Great Feng Jianghu. I didn't expect you to be much more beautiful than Rongrong."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yun, a strong and resilient woman, smiled shyly.
“Young master, you’re joking. Liu Yun is skilled with swords and spears, how can she be as gentle as Rongrong?”
Xu Qi'an put his hand to his forehead and said, "Isn't this guy supposed to have kidney problems? How come he acts like he's in heat wherever he goes?"
Chu Yuanzhen said coldly, "I no longer believe that the Heavenly Sect has cultivated the Supreme Forgetfulness."
"They must be cultivating love, one of the seven emotions; one loves all living beings, and the other loves beautiful women."
"Scholar Chu, you have a very accurate eye for people." Xu Qi'an nodded emphatically.
At this moment, a tall, beautiful, and dashing female Taoist priest walked out from the inner hall.
"Sister Liu, this is my senior brother. He has been down the mountain for two years and has already had affairs with more than a hundred women."
Upon hearing Li Miaozhen's words, Liu Yun's expression changed drastically, and she immediately drew her twin swords and held them horizontally in front of her chest.
"You look so respectable, yet you're a lecherous thief!"
"Well done!" Xu Qi'an praised.
"It's the perfect time," Chu Yuanzhen remarked.
"Hmph, since you're the Golden Eagle Heroine's senior brother, I won't rid the martial world of this scourge." Liu Yun glared at Li Lingsu, then exchanged a few words with Li Miaozhen before leaving.
Li Lingsu watched Liu Yun's departing figure and couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
"Such a beautiful encounter in life was disturbed by a vulgar female Taoist priest."
"I really don't know why someone as heartless and cold-blooded as you hasn't been taken back by your sect yet."
Li Miaozhen ignored Li Lingsu and instead looked at Chu Yuanzhen and Xu Qi'an.
"You two, come to the backyard to talk."
"Yes, Master's wife!"
Xu Qi'an and Chu Yuanzhen each took one shoulder and carried the Holy Son into the backyard.
"No, Brother Xu, Brother Chu, what did you two call my junior sister?"
Once inside the backyard, Li Miaozhen leaned against the doorframe, coldly watching Li Lingsu.
“Ning Yan is my husband’s disciple, and Yuan Zhen is my husband’s student.”
“If your husband hadn’t foreseen that you would have no descendants, I believe none of the three people present would have wanted to save you.”
“What Master’s wife says is very true,” Xu Qi’an and Chu Yuanzhen agreed at the same time.
Li Lingsu clenched her fist with one hand, her expression excited, "So it was Brother Chang'an who saved me!"
"He even foresaw that I would have no descendants; he's truly a divine being!"
"If we continue to be tormented by the Dongfang sisters, we will truly be wiped out completely."
Thinking of this, Li Lingsu's attitude towards Li Miaozhen improved considerably.
"Junior sister."
The Holy Son walked up to Li Miaozhen, rubbed his hands together, and put on a fawning smile:
"Now that I no longer need to worry about being hunted down by the Eastern Sisters, shouldn't my talismans and treasures be returned to me?"
Li Miaozhen's eyes darted around for a moment, and she replied perfunctorily:
"Oh, let's talk about it later."
Li Lingsu cast a questioning look at her junior sister: "Why do we need to wait a while?"
"Whether it's annoying or not, it'll be over soon."
"No, give me back the treasure and the talisman right now."
Li Lingsu insisted that although she didn't have much wealth, the magical artifacts and gold and silver talismans she possessed were worth several thousand taels of silver.
"By the way, you had some gold and silver with you back then, junior sister."
Li Miaozhen looked left and right, but avoided looking at Li Lingsu.
She suddenly said coldly, "Sell it!"
"Sold?" Li Lingsu's voice rose several decibels, her eyes widening:
"Who gave you permission to sell? What right do you have to sell my things? What are you going to do with them?"
"When I was organizing a guerrilla anti-bandit army in Yunzhou, I needed money, so I sold your things," Li Miaozhen said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Why don't you sell your own?" Li Lingsu felt like she had been struck by lightning several times.
Li Miaozhen pouted: "When did you get the idea that I'm good at saving money?"
“I have given all my money to the poor.”
"You're having an affair with Li Chang'an, he's so rich!" Li Lingsu was going crazy.
"Do I look like a woman who relies on men for survival?" Li Miaozhen said coldly.
Li Lingsu snapped, "Why would you get married if you don't need a man?!"
"I'm willing," Li Miaozhen said coldly.
Li Lingsu's handsome face twitched uncontrollably: "You, you disgrace to the Heavenly Sect."
Li Miaozhen was furious and said, "You are the disgrace of the Heavenly Sect."
Xu Qi'an and Chu Yuanzhen sat on the veranda, and Liu Yun sent servants to deliver Leizhou melons.
"Mmm! Ning Yan, the melons from Leizhou are delicious!"
"No! The melons from the Heavenly Sect are the best."
Li Lingsu's eyes blazed with fury. "As the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Sect, instead of cultivating the Supreme Forgetfulness, you want to become a chivalrous hero? If you're not a scoundrel, who is?"
"As the Holy Son of the Heavenly Sect, you still sleep with women everywhere and leave a trail of broken hearts. You are not only a disgrace to the Heavenly Sect, but also a heartless and ungrateful scoundrel."
"I am sincere to every woman. Besides, being in love and transcending love is a path I have come to understand. You don't know anything about it."
"Heh, why don't you tell the Celestial Venerable this? If it weren't for you, would Master and Uncle have gone down the mountain to arrest people?"
"They came down the mountain to arrest people, wasn't it because you tarnished the reputation of the Heavenly Sect, Golden Eagle Heroine!"
At this point, Li Lingsu suddenly froze, "What! Master has come to arrest people!"
Li Miaozhen looked up at the sky and said, "It's absolutely true. We've already contacted the Imperial Observatory and the Lingbao Temple."
"Although neither the supervisor nor the imperial advisor leaked the information, the possibility of them coming to us is not small."
"You're caught up in love, yet you're also detached from it. Are you so afraid of your sect arresting you?"
Li Lingsu blushed and argued, "I'm already trapped in it, I haven't gotten out of it yet."
"If we are captured and taken back now, we will never be able to transcend this path and will have no hope of reaching the Great Dao!"
"Didn't you marry Brother Chang'an? Let him block Master and Senior Uncle."
Li Miaozhen nodded and smiled.
"Yes, my husband is quite capable."
"That's settled then, there's nothing to worry about." Li Lingsu breathed a sigh of relief.
“That’s my man, what’s it to you?” Li Miaozhen scoffed.
“He was mindful of his relationship with you and didn’t want you to die without an heir, but he didn’t say he would break with the Heavenly Sect for your sake.”
Li Lingsu was stunned on the spot. Of course, Li Chang'an would protect Li Miaozhen, but there was no reason for him to protect her.
Xu Qi'an and Chu Yuanzhen ate melon seeds and chatted with each other via telepathy.
If the Ice Lord of the Heavenly Sect and the Taoist Master Xuancheng don't arrest them, the Heavenly Sect might as well shut down.
It's not unfair.
Chu Yuanzhen transmitted his voice, saying, "I never expected that the Heavenly Sect would produce two such extraordinary holy sons and daughters."
Xu Qi'an nodded helplessly, thought for a moment, and added, "But it's still better than being a supervisor."
Thinking of the situation at the Imperial Observatory, the two fell silent.
