Shen Lian said, “I will leave. You are kind. I apologize for offending you today. This chant with pure mana was produced by me. I hope it will be helpful for you.”

He swung his sleeves lightly, and the outline of Ruoxi on the cliff was covered by a chant.

While the cliff was not exactly hard as Jingang, she was still stunned that he could leave that many words on the cliff with just a swing of his arm. She was knowledgeable enough to understand the profoundness of the script. It spoke of the tips for the cultivation of Qi. She understood that this person was indeed not evil and hence she stopped feeling frustrated.

He was only here for the little girl, and she indeed felt that he cared about relationships with people, but the only thing she did not understand was why he did not visit directly.

She looked at Shen Lian again, and as she saw that he was leaving, she asked, “What is your name? If I see the girl you’re looking for, I will let you know.”

Shen Lian shook his head and was about to leave.

She could not help but say, “My name is Yang Miaoyun. If you were caught, you can inform them about me.”

Shen Lian turned around and gave her a smile, “Sure.” In the blink of an eye, Yang Miaoyun had lost sight of Shen Lian.

A piece of white cloud was coming in the direction of the lake. Yang Miaoyun tidied herself up then flew out. The white cloud was now in front of Yang Miaoyun and it was carrying a white-clothed lady. Her hair was tied into a triangular bun, and her long hair extended to her waist. She was as fair as snow, and under the light of the white cloud, she was not as beautiful as Yang Miaoyun. She wore a jade which made a melodious sound.

Yang Miaoyun called out, “Senior Apprentice-Sister Liusu.”

The white-clothed lady was called Liusu, and she was attending to Baisu Chamber. She had a high probability to become the next Chamber Master. Everyone in Taisu Sect stayed in Taisu Palace, and the chief was the Hall Master. Below the Hall Master were the Chamber Masters, Zisu, Huangsu and Baisu.

Liusu was one of the students the Hall Master valued. She began attending to matters in the Baisu Chambers at a young age. Yang Miaoyun belonged to Huangsu, and as she entered the sect later, hence she called Liusu Senior Apprentice-Sister.

Liusu asked, “Princess Miaoyun, why are you here? There is someone who sneaked into the sect today and the Hall Master asked me to search in detail. If you’re free, why don’t we look for this impertinent person who dared to break in?”

Yang Miaoyun thought to herself, should she tell her? She gave up in the end as firstly, the person was powerful, and if she told Liusu and Liusu found him, she might be at a disadvantage. Secondly, she was kind-hearted and the person did not seem to be evil as he did not do anything to her. Furthermore, he was here for his relative. Since the hall was alerted, she hoped that person would just leave.

Liusu looked at Yang Miaoyun who was staring at somewhere blankly, she asked, “Princess Miaoyun, what are you daydreaming about? Did you meet the person who broke in?”

Yang Miaoyun said, “No, and Senior Apprentice-Sister Liusu, please don’t call me princess. It is so embarrassing.”

The cloud moved forward and pulled Yang Miaoyun in. She squinted and said, “I wish I can be a princess. No, more like if I am a man I will like to be Princess Miaoyun’s husband.”

She spoke in such intimate way as she blew air in Yang Miaoyun’s ear. That made Yang Miaoyun feel weak.

Shen Lian was hiding somewhere nearby, looking at Liusu. He thought that this was one of three from Taisu Sect that took Ruoxi away seven years ago.

The reason why he sneaked in was because, like Qing Xuan, Taisu Sect was categorized as one of the four main Daoist sects, and they were well known for ten thousand years. It seemed that Ruoxi was valued highly at Taisu Sect. If he visited directly with his intention and if Taisu Sect said no, it would not look great for both parties.

It was better if he investigated privately until he found Ruoxi. Even if he was caught, he could just give up the clone. No one would know he had visited.

As long as they did not catch him, both the issue could be resolved.

Also, if he had visited directly, not knowing why Taisu Sect brought Ruoxi away, and how the chief behaved, it was exactly putting himself at disadvantage against Taisu Sect.

He was however surprised that Yang Miaoyun did not tell Liusu about him.

For the chant he left behind, whether Yang Miaoyun wanted to copy down after or pretended that she did not know, was up to her.

His focus was to find where Ruoxi was through Liusu.

In Taisu Daoist Palace, there were four chambers, Zisu, Huangsu, and Baisu. The inner chamber was where the hall master was located. The inner chamber was in the deepest area of the palace. A female Daoist dressed in purple was in the inner chamber. She had gone past the long corridor which was built in the sea of clouds until she got to a door that was made of white jade stones. It wrote, ‘Taisu Paradies’.

“Ziyue is here to greet the Hall Master.”

The lady called Ziyue waited for a while, then the jade stone door opened slowly. An eleven, twelve-year-old girl walked out, and if Shen Lian was here, he would recognize that this girl looked like Ruoxi, but she was even more beautiful than the little girl she used to be. She started to look like an empress that could charm the entire country.

She spoke, “Master is waiting for you inside. Senior Apprentice-Sister Ziyue, please follow me.”

Ziyue looked at her and thought, the reincarnation of Yuan Jun was indeed turning more and more beautiful each day. One day, there would not be anyone in the sect as beautiful as her. She could not help but sigh as she dared not to imagine what would become of her.

She spoke softly, “Ruoxi, do you want anything? I can bring it for you next time. I remember you like to eat Tanghulu, that candied fruit. Why don’t I make some using thousand-year spiritual fruits?”

When Ruoxi heard about Tanghulu, her eyes lit up immediately, but then she said, “Nevermind, Master said that I am now in a critical stage of cultivation. If I am contaminated, it can affect my cultivation.”

Ziyue thought, the faster you cultivate, the remaining days for her just gets lesser, but she could not say it. Furthermore, there could be twenty to thirty years more for her to achieve that. Even if she would live a shorter life than most cultivators, she wanted to try her best to let her live a comfortable life.

Ziyue said, “Let’s go in.”

Ruoxi held Ziyue’s hand and asked, “Senior Apprentice-Sister Ziyue, do you know where my uncle is?”

She now knew that Shen Lian was not her brother but uncle. She missed him a lot, but as Master said she could not leave as she had not succeeded in cultivation, hence she was working hard so she could see Shen Lian soon.

Ziyue said, “Your uncle is doing well. Once the Hall Master is satisfied with your cultivation, she will tell you where he is.”

Ruoxi responded, “Oh.”

Ziyue now knew that Ruoxi’s uncle was Qing Xuan’s Shen Lian. She too learned from students outside that now he was the chief of Qing Xuan with an unimaginable depth of mana. Now it seemed that Taisu and Qing Xuan were in a bad state. The Hall Master, however, could not stop, one could only blame the fate of Ruoxi to have become the reincarnation of Yuan Jun.
