Chapter 487: Chapter 185: The Brave Li Zhiwan, Mau Ruxue Taking Advantage of Public Position for Personal Interests!_2

"Sister Li, Sister Lin, Brother Chen, look, someone’s coming."

At this moment, a disciple’s voice rang out.

Li Zhiwan and the others followed the sound to see people from the Rebirth Hall approaching.

The person leading the group was the mysterious ’Earth Bodhisattva’.

Hmm? Why is she here?

At the ’Earth Bodhisattva’s arrival, Li Zhiwan and others were immediately filled with doubt. Not only them - Xuan Qingzi, hiding in the shadows, was also puzzled.

He knew very well that there had never been any exchanges between the Sect and the Rebirth Hall.

So, what was the ’Earth Bodhisattva’ doing here now?

As Xuan Qingzi pondered, the Rebirth Hall group had already reached Li Zhiwan and the rest.

"Li Zhiwan of Tianshui Sect, greets the Hall Master."

Li Zhiwan and the others could only meet them while harboring doubtful thoughts.

"Are you Chen’s esteemed disciples? A pleasure, indeed." Beneath her mask, Mao Ruxue responded.

"We wouldn’t dare call ourselves esteemed disciples, we’re simply fortunate enough to study under Brother Chen. I don’t think the Hall Master should refer to us like that." Li Zhiwan shook her head, disagreeing with Mao Ruxue’s words.

Meanwhile, she wondered how the Earth Bodhisattva had came to know so much about their relationship with her Master Chen Chang’an, which they had not disclosed.

Without hesitating, Li Zhiwan asked directly, "Does the Hall Master’s visit to us concern something important?"

"If there’s no particular reason, we kindly ask the Hall Master to leave, as we are not expecting visitors."

Although they were fully aware that Earth Bodhisattva standing before them was the individual currently making the biggest waves in Emperor Song’s realm, there were not much fear on the faces of Li Zhiwan and her companions.

Emperor Song’s palace might be formidable, but their Sect was not inferior either.

Even though there was a hierarchy difference between the Supreme Saint and the Great Heavenly Venerate, in a real fight, the winner was still uncertain.

So, there was no need to be intimidated!

This was her belief and she demonstrated it.

Humm, Humm, Humm~!

As she said these words, an illusory ancient star appeared behind Li Zhiwan, ready to manifest at any moment.

What was surprising, within that ancient star, stood a woman in a sophisticated palace costume.

The woman stood independently, seeming to bear the weight of the entire starry sky.

Without a doubt, this was the awakened mistress of the Taiyin Palace, Li Zhiwan!

Being one of the four celestial beings of the Void God, together with the rise of Confucian Path nowadays, even an immature figure of this deity would be considered impeccable!

Moreover, the figure manifesting behind her was not immature!

"My! Zi Wan lady, you are courageous." On hearing Li Zhiwan’s tone and viewing her posture, Mao Ruxue could not help but let out an amused smile.

A little girl, daring to confront her Master?

Impressive indeed, you are very brave!

Mao Ruxue was a little surprised. She was used to dominating Li Zhiwan, but never expected the young girl to confront her so boldly today, which was somewhat unexpected.

What Mao Ruxue didn’t know was that Li Zhiwan was inherently quite assertive.

However, her assertiveness usually collapsed when she encountered Mao Ruxue.

So, Mao Ruxue could not see the assertive side of Li Zhiwan.

But, just because she couldn’t see it, didn’t mean it wasn’t there!

Upon hearing Mao Ruxue’s words, Li Zhiwan, undaunted, waved her hand:

"I wouldn’t dare! However, we are here on our Master’s order, carrying the Sect’s fate on our shoulders. Our every move represents the Sect’s face, so naturally, we cannot allow outsiders to belittle us easily."

It was clear that if the ’Earth Bodhisattva’ was to make any inappropriate moves next, she would indeed take action.

Not only Li Zhiwan, but Lin Qingxue and others also braced themselves in anticipation, clearly prepared to reveal their cultivations and ready to fight at any moment.

"Hehe." Sensing Li Zhiwan and the others’ readiness to fight, Mao Ruxue laughed without saying much.

The next moment, she dismissed the matter with a wave of her hand:

"Forget it, I’m done teasing you guys."

"Saint Chen is the only Saint in the world who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Confucius. His creation of the Heavenly Confucian Dao eliminated many injustices in the world and allowed more human beings to defeat beasts and secure a stable habitat,"

"Therefore, our Hall Master has always been full of praise for Saint Chen."

"Therefore, during this opening of the Nine Paths, our Hall Master said, an honorary Dao position will be given to your Tianshui Sect."

"Consider it a thank you to Saint Chen."

Saying this, Mao Ruxue pointed towards a specific direction in the world.

"What is this?!"

Li Zhiwan and the others looked in the direction where Mao Ruxue pointed. Immediately, they were all taken aback.

HUMMMMM~!

They saw a Dao array standing proudly where the Earth Bodhisattva had pointed to.

And next to the Dao array, unlike the surrounding eight Dao arrays full of people, there was not a single soul.

This sight, coupled with the Earth Bodhisattva’s prior words — it was clear she did not mince her words!

"Ms. Earth Bodhisattva, are you really giving the position of the Dao Master to us?" After recovering from the surprise, Li Zhiwan looked at Mao Ruxue with confusion.

"I never speak untrue words." Mao Ruxue said.

"Of course, if you guys don’t believe it, it’s nothing I can do."

"I’ve given you an opportunity, whether you grasp it or not is up to you."

After speaking this sentence, Mao Ruxue directly turned and left.

It’s not because she’s being dismissive but rather because she can’t linger here.

After all, this entire affair is her exploiting her position for personal gain, taking the significant risk of personally notifying Li Zhiwan and the others already.

If she lingers here any longer, the risks would undoubtedly maximise.

This is a gamble Mao Ruxue doesn’t dare to take!

After all, if she gets exposed for this, she’s done for as the Earth Bodhisattva!

This is no joke!

"Moo moo~!"

Just as Mao Ruxue turned around, a mooing sound suddenly came from her bosom.

Following that, a gray figure flew out of her chest.

It was none other than Little Duo, flapping its large ears.

It seemed to have sensed the presence of Li Zhiwan and others and wanted to come out to connect with them.

"Little Duo, what are you doing? Come back here right now."

This scared Mao Ruxue quite a bit, she quickly caught Little Duo and held it back.

If merely coming here to deliver benefits to Li Zhiwan and others is already suspicious enough.

You can imagine if Little Duo were to be spotted by others it would undoubtedly lead to her identity exposure. This is truly terrifying!

"Whoosh~!"

Next, to prevent Little Duo from causing more confusion, Mao Ruxue disappeared on the spot with Little Duo in tow.

Returning to Rebirth Hall!

"Sister Lin, eh? Why does the Earth Bodhisattva also have a little elephant?"

"Also, how come this little elephant seems familiar?"

"That’s right, it’s Little Duo, that little elephant looks so much like Little Duo! Except for the color, if you say they are the same one, I would believe it!"

The disciples of the Tianshi Sect also noticed the issue with the figure on Mao Ruxue’s body, particularly the striking large ears of Little Duo that caught their eyes.

Immediately, they cried out in surprise.

After all, this little elephant looked exactly like that one at the Dao Village Mountain!

No, can’t even just say similar, it’s absolutely identical!

Only differing in color, these two little elephants were carved from the same mold!

Li Zhiwan also noticed this scene, and she was filled with endless confusion over it.

As Li Zhiwan knew, although there were many elephants in the world, small flying elephants with big ears were almost non-existent!

How come the Earth Bodhisattva also had a little flying elephant that’s identical to Little Duo?

Li Zhiwan couldn’t understand, she felt like she had caught an important clue but could not make sense of it. Every time she tried to figure it out, she felt like she was missing something crucial.
