The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 57 Han River Poetry Society

I never expected that Hongling urgently contacted me just to have me write poetry for her.

What a pain!

Don’t you ever consider that I might not be good at this kind of thing?

Lin Yun felt helpless and had to copy a poem, instructing someone to deliver it to Hongling. He also wrote on a slip of paper, "Wang Wanqiu seems to be aware, please seize the opportunity to eliminate her."

Afterwards, he found a teahouse and ordered a pot of tea to drink alone.

Before long, Hongling’s voice rang in his mind again.

"Thanks to you, I didn’t expect you to be so talented."

Lin Yun silently took a sip of tea.

He had no choice but to drink, as he couldn’t communicate with Hongling and could only listen.

That’s why it made sense for Dongfang Hongyue to insist that he should venture out only after reaching the Heart Guarding Realm, because he was unable to cast many spells.

For instance, storing objects in the Dantian requires the Heart Guarding Realm, and Divine Sense Voice Transmission requires the Divine Cultivation Realm.

Currently, though Lin Yun’s combat ability was decent, he basically couldn’t cast functional spells and still had to carry a bag to hold his belongings when going out.

Hongling didn’t need Lin Yun to speak, she continued, "The Sect Hierarch communicated with me last night, the Divine Spirit Relic of the Ancient Han River Lands is about to appear. Cold Moon City is not a good place, you should leave as soon as possible."

Lin Yun: "..."

Normally, shouldn’t one go and fight for treasures?

Dongfang Hongyue simply told him to leave, which was really playing it safe.

What surprised Lin Yun was that he had only heard of the secret treasure for the first time last night, and today Dongfang Hongyue had Hongling relay the message to him again. Could it be that many people actually knew about this?

Lin Yun wasn’t in the mood to stay either. Since Dongfang Hongyue had warned him, this commotion was not something he could afford to watch. Competing for the treasure would surely involve fighting, and with his current cultivation level, he was far from invincible. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

It would be a loss if he got killed by someone else.

"For the next three days, Cold Moon City will still be safe."

Hongling provided even more important information, although Cold Moon City was about to become the center of a storm, within these three days, it would actually be safer.

No one could make trouble under the joint watch of the Seven Righteous Sects and the Three Sects of the Demon Path, but once the Moon God’s Relic had an owner, the situation would change.

"By the way, the Sect Hierarch heard that you’re interested in participating in the Han River Poetry Meeting and asked me to tell you that there are many beautiful women in Guanghan Palace and for you to show off your talents more."

Lin Yun: "..."

Is this telling me to show off my talent?

It’s obviously a warning not to show off too much.

A jealous demoness is quite adorable.

Lin Yun smiled and took another sip of tea. Unfortunately, since he started fleeing, he hadn’t been able to properly tease Dongfang Hongyue. He would wait until things settled down before he could "video call" with her.

"You needn’t worry about Wang Wan Qiu; once I leave the city, I’ll make my move."

Hongling had nothing else to say and left first.

Lin Yun sat alone for a while, picked up his tea, and felt regretful.

If possible, he didn’t want to kill anyone.

Moreover, although Wang Wan Qiu didn’t score high in his favor, objectively speaking, she wasn’t a bad person.

The most important thing was that she had a beautiful master!

Such a pity.

Sipping his tea, Lin Yun felt movement from the Azure Dragon Gu Worm in his body, and that sense of Divine Spirit reached out again.

"Okay, connect me."

Lin Yun suddenly felt as if the Azure Dragon Gu Worm had turned into the shape of a cellphone.

After awakening in Lin Yun’s body, Green Lotus’s Divine Sense reached out to him saying, "Where are you now?"

"I’m in Cold Moon City."

Lin Yun’s response delighted Green Lotus.

He had been hoping for Lin Yun to visit Cold Moon City as well, even though Lin Yun’s cultivation level wasn’t high and he might not be of much use. Nonetheless, a look around was good, and who knew if this chess piece might play a key role?

"It’s good that you’re in Cold Moon City, actually. You can do a few things for me."

Lin Yun immediately responded, "Please instruct me, Master."

Seeing Lin Yun so obedient and without hesitation, Green Lotus was quite satisfied with the boy’s loyalty.

"There’s word of a treasure in the Ancient Han River Lands, and it’s most likely to appear in Cold Moon City. When a treasure of such nature is born, it must have something divine about it. Since you’re in Cold Moon City, keep an acute lookout for anything unusual. If you discover anything, go to the Emperor Qing Pavilion in Cold Moon City and send the news out. I will naturally come to know of it."

"Disciple obeys."

Clearly, that Emperor Qing Pavilion was Green Lotus Sect’s communication hub.

At this moment, Lin Yun’s only thought was how to hint the Orthodox Sects about the problem with this Emperor Qing Pavilion without implicating himself.

Green Lotus had no idea of Lin Yun’s true thoughts, and for the time being, Lin Yun seemed quite loyal.

Green Lotus was very satisfied, though there were no rewards.

After discussing the formal matters, he left.

Having finished his tea, Lin Yun returned to the inn and rested for a while, and Wang Wanqiu also came back.

Neither asked the other what they had been up to; they seemed to trust each other completely.

In reality, as spies, they maintained skepticism towards everyone.

Wang Wanqiu was no exception.

Upon learning that Lin Yun was a double agent, she didn’t confront him immediately. The words she spoke to Lin Yun weren’t lies either; Lin Yun’s physique was very important to her.

As someone with the Innate Cauldron Physique, it didn’t matter if he was a double agent or even an octuple agent; she wouldn’t pursue it and would attempt to bring Lin Yun back with her.

It’s just that, where she once saw Lin Yun as a comrade-in-arms, that sentiment was now gone.

However, she was somewhat touched by the fact that Lin Yun didn’t kill her, so even though she no longer saw him as a comrade, she had no intention of plotting for his wealth or his life.

At most, she just coveted his body.

Little did she know that Lin Yun, though saying he didn’t want to kill her, was actually making arrangements for someone else to do it.

Lin Yun: I can’t bring myself to kill you, but there’s no problem if someone else does, right?

Lin Yun and Wang Wanqiu spent two seemingly peaceful days in Cold Moon City, but beneath the calm surface, undercurrents were stirring.

Outside Cold Moon City, members of both the Righteous and Demonic paths were fending off the invading Demon Tribe.

In two days’ time, there were several battles, and in the end, the Demon Tribe proposed a condition – they wanted to send Great Demons to participate in the treasure hunt.

In the end, the Human Race allowed five members of the Demon Tribe to cross the territory. The cultivation levels of these five Great Demons were equivalent to that of the Human Race’s Heart Guarding Realm.

While there were ten humans and only five demons, the Demon Tribe seemed at a considerable disadvantage.

But this wasn’t really the case, for the interests of the ten human sects were not aligned, so the ten people might not stand together as one.

At this time, treasure hunters sent by the Demon Tribe and various sects had already secretly arrived in Cold Moon City.

According to the agreement, exploration of the Ancient Han River Lands was to take place after the Han River Poetry Gathering.

Since the Poetry Gathering was also an important part of Guanghan Palace’s legacy, other sects couldn’t well turn down Guanghan Palace on this matter.

Conveniently, everyone could also participate in the Han River Poetry Gathering.

The venue for the poetry gathering was Linjiang Building.

Built beside the water, Linjiang Building was considered the best spot for enjoying the view. Tonight, the moon was especially full.

Because Guanghan Palace favored white, Lin Yun also changed into a set of white clothing, looking as if he were exuding an aura of immortality.

Arriving at Linjiang Building with Wang Wanqiu, Lin Yun attracted a torrent of gazes. Many beautiful young ladies stared at him, their eyes shimmering with interest.

Lin Yun: "..."

Master, I don’t want to stand out, but my good looks won’t allow it...
