During the day, he needed to cultivate and constantly guard against Linglong Fairy, which truly consumed a lot of his energy.

Amina asked, "Is there any other news?"

"No," the Daoist just shook his head, "The senior's warning, that Heavenly Immortal Gu Zheng from the Immortal Martial Hall secretly watching Linglong Fairy, and Linglong Fairy's killing intent towards me, these are the only things we know now."

Amina crossed her arms, paced back and forth, muttering: "So, when Linglong Fairy left in the evening, Gu Zheng Xingxian actively showed up and met you, was that also a reminder?"

"Oh no!"

Mu Dan slapped her forehead, glaring, "We need to leave quickly!"

Wang Jixuan puzzled, "Leave? Is it that urgent?"

"It is indeed urgent, boss!"

Mu Dan said quickly:

"Based on the information we currently know.

"Gu Zheng is a Tianluo Immortal, and all Tianluo Immortals are under the surveillance of the Heavenly Net Heavenly Dao. If we assume Gu Zheng is here to protect us, then his constant surveillance of Linglong Fairy implies there's something wrong with her?

"Gu Zheng knows there's something wrong with Linglong.

"The high-level officials of Tianluo who sent Gu Zheng must also know there's something wrong with Linglong.

"And if the high-level officials of Tianluo know there's something wrong with Linglong, yet she still appeared here, becoming your cultivation guide, able to get close to you.

"Doesn't this imply... the high-level officials of Tianluo are not united, at least they don't agree on how to handle you, boss.

"The confrontation between Gu Zheng and Linglong is a microcosm of the internal conflicts at Tianluo's high levels."

Amina asked, "Can't the Heavenly Dao of Tianluo control the high-level officials of Tianluo?"

Mu Dan said, "Taiyin Golden Immortals and Daluo Golden Immortals, it must be difficult to control them, right?"

Wang Jixuan asked, "Then Mu Dan, who do you think sent Linglong over?"

"The high-level officials of Tianluo, without a doubt."

Mu Dan said quickly:

"Linglong mentioned, the high-level officials of Tianluo personally went to Wangxian Valley, asking them to send a Heavenly Immortal.

"Linglong was clearly the one chosen.

"With the Heavenly Net Heavenly Dao watching over, the high-level officials of Tianluo want to kill the boss, yet the Immortals of Tianluo cannot take action themselves. Using this opportunity to eliminate the disciples of the Lower Realm's Wangxian Valley through the Upper Realm's Wangxian Valley, also makes sense."

Amina sighed, "Then what should we do? Should we just run away?"

"Can't escape," Wang Jixuan squinted slightly, "Even those who don't want to kill me at Tianluo probably just want an obedient variable. Being long in power and used to controlling everything, they are unlikely to pity cultivators like us struggling in the Mortal World."

Mu Dan muttered softly, "Did Elder Shao get involved in this?"

Wang Jixuan shook his head: "Not sure, personally I tend to believe he did not."

"Still can't be careless," Mu Dan said, "Boss, why not ask that senior?"

"Alright."

Wang Jixuan thought for a moment.

To break the situation now, he could indeed only rely on the Senior Bai Gu from the Moon God Palace.

After Mu Dan's analysis, his Dao Heart was also disturbed.

Desiring peace yet the storm does not cease.

"Amina, can I use your toilet for a bit?"

"Okay."

A short while later, Master Wang hid in the bath barrel, holding the Stone of the Past, and softly called a few times.

A whirlpool appeared on the surface of the Stone of the Past, pulling in a wisp of Wang Jixuan's Primordial Spirit.

It took only a few minutes.

With a shiver, Wang Jixuan placed the Stone of the Past into the deepest part of his Storage Magical Treasure, looking at the semi-transparent golden leaf in his left hand, he lightly sighed.

No matter what, he now had an additional countermeasure.

He went outside to find Mu Dan, finalizing the subsequent plan.

Two days later, when Linglong Fairy would transmit another technique, she might make a move against Wang Jixuan; at that time, Wang Jixuan would intentionally show a flaw to invite Linglong Fairy's attack.

If she indeed makes a move, Wang Jixuan would gamble against it using the Foreign Soul Puppet and the leaf given by Senior Bai Gu.

The military general Gu Zheng would most likely take action, but Wang Jixuan couldn't bet his life on the other person.

In such matters, relying on oneself is most reliable.

What Mu Dan needed to do was, within these two days, inform Zheng Shiduo and the others regarding these matters without alerting Linglong Fairy. During the second teaching session, they needed to timely enter the subspace to hide, leaving Wang Jixuan to face the enemy alone.

The disparity between a Unification Realm cultivator and a Heavenly Immortal is truly vast.

The Heavenly Immortal Realm has nine grades, with a saying that each grade is like a natural chasm.

Wang Jixuan's True Immortal combat prowess with the Foreign Soul Puppet would only allow him to merely engage in simple combat with the opponent.

When leaving Amina's room, Wang Jixuan gave Amina a knowing look.

Amina understood, took a deep breath, letting her cheeks flush with a rosy hue, deliberately mussed her deep blue hair, infused her eyes with a hint of languid charm, raised her hand to lower her neckline, and bit her lips until they turned red.

Wang Jixuan withdrew the barrier and retracted the alien soul.

He glanced back, his Dao Heart rippling with a slight undulation.

Unfortunately, this setting, this atmosphere, was not the right moment for romance.

Amina leaned against the door frame, watching Wang Jixuan leave.

Linglong Fairy, who was reading a scroll, pursed her lips at the sight and muttered, "Didn't use any Immortal Technique? Couldn't even last an hour."

Fortunately, Master Wang did not hear.

...

Two peaceful days slipped by in a flash.

As dawn light spilled forth, the Peach Blossom Forest filled with a chorus of bird songs, the large array covering the valley operated as usual.

When Wang Jixuan arrived as per agreement, Linglong Fairy had already been waiting in the pavilion for quite some time.

Around Linglong fluttered several colorful butterflies, catching the eye.

"How have you comprehended the points I instructed you on last time?"

"Disciple has basically fully comprehended," Wang Jixuan bowed in gratitude, "Thank you, Fairy, for your guidance. Otherwise, I might have taken many a detour in the future."

Linglong smiled and said, "If you ascended normally, you would enter the domain of the Feather God Palace. According to the rules, you would have to cultivate in Wangxian Valley for a hundred to three hundred years."

"And then?" Wang Jixuan asked with interest.

Linglong said, "Then you would go to Feather God Palace's Feather Immortal Army as a nominal member to earn the resources for your future cultivation."

Wang Jixuan:...

As expected, it was to be a cannon fodder mercenary for the Feather God Palace.

"Alright, you can explore these things yourself once you reach the Immortal Realm. Right now, you belong to Tianluo, and when you reach the Immortal Realm, Tianluo will protect you directly. To contact the Feather God Palace, you'll probably have to wait until you become a Heavenly Immortal or Golden Immortal."

Linglong sighed lightly:

"With such variables, your cultivation should be extremely fast."

Wang Jixuan sat on the cushion in front of Linglong.

According to the plan, today he had to give Linglong a chance to act.

But before that, he needed to confirm that the Heavenly Immortal General Gu Zheng was nearby.

The alien soul extended its immortal sense, searching everywhere…

He's present.

Moreover, Gu Zheng was hiding behind a peach tree, only about a hundred feet away, and the general was taut, ready to strike at any moment.

Wang Jixuan's mind was set at ease.

Meanwhile, Zheng Shiduo and a few others were gathered together, playing cards and jesting at the edge of the Peach Blossom Forest.

Next, he just needed to proceed according to the plan, enticing Linglong Fairy to make a move…

What if she doesn't make a move?

Wang Jixuan really considered this possibility; perhaps Linglong Fairy was too cautious, or Senior Bai Gu sensed incorrectly, the source of the murderous intent was not Linglong Fairy, or even, Linglong Fairy had a guilty conscience awakened…

In any case, if she strikes, then fight.

If she doesn't strike, Wang Jixuan would have to take the initiative to probe, to see if he could trick her.

"Come."

Linglong Fairy motioned for Wang Jixuan to stand:

"The last time I taught you a cultivation method, that was imparting Tao. Today I will teach you the magic that matches the Qingping Technique, this is bestowing a skill.

"You must prepare yourself.

"When my Master bestowed a skill, I got quite a beating; today I won't let you off easily either."

Wang Jixuan smiled and bowed again: "Please, Fairy, show mercy. I am just a Mahayana Cultivator and can't withstand your torment."

In fact, his main body had only reached the Mahayana Realm as a side effect when the alien soul puppet formed.

Linglong Fairy took out two treasure swords, tossing one to Wang Jixuan, and said with a smile, "Our Wangxian Valley has a signature sword song, famous even in the Immortal Realm. This is the Qingping Sword Song. If you can grasp a small success in it, it'll suffice before reaching the Heavenly Immortal Realm."

She gently vibrated the sword's edge, strands of Sword Intent surrounding the two of them.

A sense of sorrow welled up in Wang Jixuan's heart, as if he were wandering alone in the world, with nothing to rely on.

Can affect emotions?

Such powerful Sword Intent.

Master Wang dared not be careless; he observed carefully, noting the Sword Intent while also watching Linglong Fairy's actions.

Suddenly.

"Oh, is a lesson underway? May this old man sit in and listen?"

Elder Shao's avatar rode a cloud over, a slightly stiff smile on his lips.
