Midnight watch.
Lu Zhan sat at the table in his outer robe, feeling refreshed. He took out his soul bowl and as soon as his spiritual consciousness dived into it, he saw a lot of information.
The second-rate guys of the Black Water Sect hide during the day and come out at night, and like to hang out in groups at night.
Lu Zhan flipped through the pages and the news about Elder Blackwater made him narrow his eyes.
[Heishui Elder]: "In the 630th year of the Qingli calendar of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Lu Zhan and Ling Jiaoyue returned to the Fairy Island after two months, and shocked the world with their sword."
[Heishui Elder]: "The above is the latest news obtained by Jianghu Monthly Report. Lu Zhan disappeared for two months. He and Ling Jiaoyue slashed with the same sword and seriously injured a great man in the Creation Realm. Your previous judgment was wrong. Lu Zhan did not die on the Immortal Island."
After seeing these two pieces of news, Lu Zhan was impressed by the Jianghu Pavilion's extremely fast efficiency. In such a short period of time, the story between him and Ling Jiaoyue had already been published.
[Black Water No. 5]: "Back then, there was a lot of fighting on the Fairy Island, but no one obtained the Divine Fire Essence. Everyone thought that the Divine Fire Essence did not exist. But now Lu Zhan is alive, and he can even kill the Creation Realm by joining forces with Ling Jiaoyue. Is it possible..."
[Heishui Elder]: "Don't make meaningless guesses. I'm already in Jinling. I'll meet Lu Zhan when he returns to Jinling."
Lu Zhan narrowed his eyes and quickly browsed the group messages.
There was a lot of news, and even some lurkers came out, but they were not bragging about how powerful Mr. Lu was, but were opposing Elder Blackwater from meeting him.
Everyone seemed to be on guard against him, fearing that he would extend his evil claws to Elder Blackwater, the flower of the cult.
Apart from these miscellaneous messages, there is not much useful information.
The only useful thing is that Elder Blackwater wants to meet with him.
Lu Zhan knew that the Black Water Elder would compromise. After all, the Black Water Pearl was of great significance to the Black Water Sect.
But the other party chose to compromise and meet with him at this juncture. It is unknown whether it was for the black water beads or to verify the essence of the divine fire.
"Hiss..." Ling Jiaoyue frowned at the news. She felt a little unhappy with the Black Water Elder, but the pain in her body made her frown frequently. She took a breath and looked at Lu Zhan complainingly: "Are you really going to give her the Black Water Pearl?"
Although they were talking about serious matters, Fairy Ling's resentful expression could not be faked. She suspected that Lu Zhan was born in the year of the dog.
The red bean buns that she had carefully taken care of for many years were bitten to pieces by him.
Lu Zhan pretended not to see her resentful look and said, "The Black Water Pearl is indeed a treasure, but it is of little use to me. Although it can be used to refine poison, it is only icing on the cake. If I can exchange it for something better, I will hand it over."
"for example?"
“For example, the leader of the Black Water Sect or something like that.” Lu Zhan knew the routine of the undercover agent very well. When he first went in as an undercover, he had to find ways to gain trust. Once the trust was almost gained, he had to get promoted and make money. Otherwise, how could he get the core information of the cult?
Even if you are an undercover agent, you must be an undercover agent with backbone and must be motivated.
The black water beads are good, but to Lu Zhan, they are not that important. It is very cost-effective to use them to make a deal.
"That's good." Ling Jiaoyue wiped the marks on her red bean bun and said, "If I can become the leader of a branch helm, I can at least get access to relatively core information, which is much better than now."
Although they are now lurking in the Soul Bowl group, the information in this group is too scattered and it is not the core.
If one really wants to get inside information, he not only needs to be promoted, but also needs to have a positive image in the Black Water Sect.
For example, there are some things that "No. 3" cannot do, but "Lu Zhan" can do. Although Lu Zhan is No. 3, they are two completely different identities.
After she finished speaking, Ling Jiaoyue found that Lu Zhan did not respond. She raised her head and saw Lu Zhan staring at her with a half-smile.
Ling Jiaoyue looked angry: "Why are you looking at me like that?"
“Nothing.” Lu Zhan smiled, “I just feel that you are becoming more and more relaxed in front of me, which is completely different from your previous pure and indifferent appearance.”
After the two of them had done the most intimate thing in the world and experienced life and death together, Ling Jiaoyue had indeed let go a lot.
But this didn't mean she could accept teasing. Seeing Lu Zhan's teasing expression, Ling Jiaoyue stood up suddenly and stretched out her hand to pinch his waist: "If you keep talking nonsense, believe it or not, I will...next time...next time...cut you off?"
Lu Zhan said hurriedly, "I don't dare, I don't dare, the Black Water Sect's affairs cannot be rushed, let's take it one step at a time, do you want to go back and rest?"
"I'll go back later." Ling Jiaoyue knew she couldn't stay here, but Lu Zhan asked her to go back, which made her a little unhappy. She said coldly: "Elder Heishui chose to meet you at this time, maybe he wants to get the essence of the divine fire."
"I know." Seeing that her clothes were in disarray, Lu Zhan helped her get dressed attentively. As she was getting dressed, he realized that her clothes were wet, so he asked, "Do you want to change clothes first?"
Ling Jiaoyue blushed: "I'll change it myself when I get back!"
Not only do you have to change clothes, you also have to take a bath, and use flower lotion to nourish your skin and remove all the scars, otherwise you would be too embarrassed to see anyone.
Lu Zhan was a very considerate person: "Do you want me to help you get rid of these scars?"
As he said this, he raised his palm, with a bright green light emanating from the palm, which he rubbed towards the red bean ball. Before he could touch it, he was stopped by Fairy Ling.
"No need!" Ling Jiaoyue didn't believe he was so kind, she stood up and said: "Anyway, you should be careful, Elder Heishui is a very mysterious woman. I'll leave first."
If she stayed here any longer, Ling Jiaoyue knew that she would be in trouble again. She always thought that she had a good physique, but compared with Lu Zhan, she was so weak.
How can I bear this in the future?
Fairy Ling looked down at her tattered clothes, her figure escaping towards the lonely peak like a streak of light, but her heart grew heavier and heavier, and she even thought of Jiang Ningshuang again.
If that stupid woman Jiang Ningshuang was here, the situation might be better.
"Why would I think so..."
Fairy Ling was shocked by her own thoughts. Jiang Ningshuang was her "opposite". She thought that no one should think about that stupid woman, otherwise it would be soft-hearted towards the enemy and she was simply sick.
……
The next day.
There are drizzles of rain and wind, and the autumn rain is slightly cold.
The amazing swordplay between Lu Zhan and Ling Jiaoyue in Mengying Island had been fermented in Jianghu Pavilion, and now everyone in Yunshui Sect was discussing the matter.
In addition to marveling at Lu Zhan's strength, people were even more curious about who the "Creation Realm" expert who was severely injured by Lu Zhan and Ling Jiaoyue was.
Fortunately, the street thugs in Jianghu Pavilion were not very powerful and did not get a glimpse of Shui Chen's face, otherwise the "scandal" of Yunshui Sect's fellow disciples killing each other would have spread throughout the Great Zhou.
Raindrops rolled sideways, and the Yunshui Sect was hazy in the mist and rain. Lu Zhan, one of the parties involved, was following Liu Huiyang to the Wuji Palace.
It is said that the headmaster of Yunshui Sect learned that Young Master Lu had come to the sect and wanted to meet him to appreciate the demeanor of the young master.
Lu Zhan naturally didn't believe such nonsense, but this situation was closely related to his strength.
Precisely because he was striving to lead the younger generation, the headmaster of Yunshui Sect wanted to meet him. If he was just an ordinary demon-suppressing master, he would not be able to see the headmaster even if he came to Yunshui Sect.
"Brother Liu, why are you so far away from me?" Lu Zhan put his thoughts away, but was surprised to see Liu Huiyang avoiding him.
Is this still the enthusiastic senior brother who ran to my door last night and wanted to discuss philosophy with me?
"No way, no way..." Liu Huiyang smiled wryly.
After what happened last night, Liu Huiyang was very wary of Lu Zhan.
It was normal for Lu Zhan to be good at dual cultivation, but it was abnormal for Lu Zhan to enthusiastically invite him to discuss dual cultivation... Thinking about what happened last night, Liu Huiyang had to be alert and even a little panicked.
As expected, I am handsome, so even Lu Zhan has feelings for me... The more Senior Brother Yunshui Sect thought about it, the more ridiculous it seemed to him. He would naturally not be so narcissistic.
He knew that what Lu Zhan said last night was probably an excuse he made up because he didn't want to see him, but it was precisely because of this that he wanted to stay away from Lu Zhan.
Even if he was looking for an excuse, he couldn't say "dual cultivation" to the man. Isn't that too shameless? If he got close to Lu Zhan, he would probably be affected by his reputation.
"Brother Lu, Wuji Palace is just ahead, please go in, I won't disturb you."
Seeing that they were approaching Wuji Palace, Liu Huiyang slipped away like the wind.
Lu Zhan looked at his back and thought that this senior brother's behavior was strange. He didn't think much about it, straightened his robe, and walked into the Wuji Hall.
Compared to the solitary peak, the Wuji Palace is extremely grand and magnificent. It stands on the top of the highest mountain in the Yunshui Sect's mountain gate, overlooking the major peaks of the sect.
If it were a sunny day, with misty white clouds and flying cranes, it would be even more magnificent and peaceful. But with drizzling rain at this moment, it looked like a fairy palace hidden in the clouds, less auspicious and more mysterious.
It was very quiet in the bright palace. There was only an old man with white hair and beard standing there. He had a tall and straight figure, sharp eyes, a ruddy complexion, and looked energetic.
"Are you Lu Zhan?"
The head of the Yunshui Sect looked at Lu Zhan coming over, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
"I am Lu Zhan, a junior, nice to meet you, senior." Lu Zhan bowed politely. This was the first time he met the head of a sect, so he was quite curious. The head was completely different from what he had imagined, and looked more like an ordinary old man.
"No need to be polite." The head master stroked his white beard and said with a smile: "Under Wei Jinyao's management, the Demon Suppression Division has produced many talented people."
Lu Zhan's expression was solemn, and he instantly sensed something unusual in these words.
The current Grand Princess' maiden name is Wei Jinyao, and her title is Princess Longjia.
The eldest princess holds the power of the Demon Suppression Bureau and is extremely powerful. No one, whether in the court or from the major immortal sects, dares to disrespect her.
The old man dared to call the eldest princess by her name, it was definitely not because he was stubborn and wanted to find trouble, but because he was very familiar with the eldest princess.
Lu Zhan guessed what she meant, but pretended not to know and just said, "The Grand Master is indeed a heroine."
"A female hero?" The head master walked up to Lu Zhan and shook his head like an ordinary old man. He smiled and said, "You don't understand Long Jia. In her early years, Long Jia was quite rebellious. How could she be a female hero? She was simply a female gangster."
First Jin Yao and then Long Jia, are you hinting to me that you are very familiar with the Grand Master... Lu Zhan smiled faintly and did not respond.
"You don't have to be nervous. I just think your current behavior is very similar to hers. I heard that you came to Yunshui Sect, so of course I want to meet you." The head of Yunshui Sect smiled and said, "She was also so young and frivolous back then. She was invincible among her peers and traveled across the continent for hundreds of years. She was admired by countless people. But after she took on the responsibility, she naturally behaved herself."
Lu Zhan smiled and said nothing, not talking about his boss' embarrassing moments.
As if sensing Lu Zhan's thoughts, the Yunshui Sect's head master said with a smile, "You don't have to be so reserved. I had a good relationship with her in the beginning, and she even called me big brother."
Lu Zhan smiled: "I see."
"Well... after returning from the Fairy Island, you didn't go back to the Demon Suppression Bureau, but came to the Yunshui Sect as soon as possible. Was it for Jiaoyue?" After the pleasantries, the old man changed the subject and mentioned this matter.
Lu Zhan said calmly, "Yes, Miss Ling is my best friend. We lived and died together on the Fairy Island. Now that she has escaped, I naturally have to escort her."
The head teacher was still smiling, but his eyes suddenly became sharp: "You know what happened to Jiaoyue on the fairy island, and you also slashed with the sword with her, so you naturally know about her uncle, right?"
After going around in circles, I found out that he was waiting here... Lu Zhan was not surprised. He made a surprised expression: "Huh? Miss Ling didn't tell me so much. I swung the sword at her just to help her fight the enemy. Is there any hidden secret?"
The head of the Yunshui Sect looked at him for a long while before saying, "Jiaoyue also said that she didn't tell you the inside story, but I know that both of you are not telling the truth. However, this matter was originally caused by the poor management of the inner sect of the Yunshui Sect, which led to the killing of fellow disciples. It's okay even if you know. It's just that this kind of thing is not glorious after all, so it's better to keep it to yourself."
"Now that the news of you and Jiaoyue leaving the Fairy Island has spread, I don't know how many people are watching you. Your Grand Master and I are old friends. Since you have come to the Yunshui Sect, we naturally have to do our best to be a good host. You can leave whenever you want."
Lu Zhan nodded slightly, accepting the other party's kindness: "Thank you very much, junior."
It would have been fine if no one had obtained the essence of the sacred fire during the trip to the fairy island, but at this time, he and Ling Jiaoyue, who had disappeared for two months, suddenly "resurrected from the dead" and their strength increased dramatically, which inevitably led to speculation, and many people probably became interested.
But now that he is in the Yunshui Sect, even if those people want to rob, they dare not rob the Yunshui Sect. This is considered the "protection" of the Yunshui Sect. It is much better for him to wait until he is ready before returning to Jinling than to leave rashly now.
Lu Zhan appreciated the favor, bowed and walked out of Wuji Palace.
After Lu Zhan left, a tall figure walked out from the depths of the hall and frowned, "Master, do you not believe what Jiaoyue said?"
“Junior Sister Yunshan, you are still so sensitive!” The head of the Yunshui Sect turned around with a smile and looked at Taoist Yunshan and said, “I am just reminding this kid. His style of behavior is too similar to Wei Jinyao’s. He is lawless. If he gets out, our fellow disciples of the Yunshui Sect will kill each other, which is really embarrassing.”
Taoist Yunshan snorted coldly: "If it weren't for the fact that the head teacher favored Senior Sister Shuichen, how could she have caused such a disaster?"
The head of the Yunshui Sect remained silent, rubbed his hands, and demonstrated on the spot that silence is golden.
Taoist Yunshan glared at him and said, "Forget it. I have nothing to say now. Just don't involve Jiaoyue anymore. As for the Grand Master... Senior Brother, it's been so many years, you should have forgotten it, right?"
Thinking about what the head master had just said, Taoist Yunshan's calm heart even started to laugh.
Princess Longjia calls him big brother?
It was clearly him who failed in his pursuit of Long Jia, and had his legs broken by him, and he howled and called him "big brother"...
It's just that they were all teenagers when this happened, but that doesn't mean that everyone has forgotten it.
The Yunshui Sect's headmaster's mouth twitched: "Junior sister, why do you say that? I kept this kid only because I have some friendship with Long Jia, not because I want to please Long Jia!"

PS: Good night!
