The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 711 - 219 Su’e: What sin have I committed?
Lin Yun’s words were like a wake-up call to those lost in a dream.
Su’e was the only known divine spirit apart from Qian Qian, located in the Land of Death. With Qian Qian’s divine abilities, finding Su’e would be no difficult task.
Furthermore, Qian Qian thought, since Su’e had obtained a piece of the Heaven-Mending Stone, she might know more about it. Seeking her out for information could be a way to break the deadlock.
Lin Yun was indeed clever.
However, when Qian Qian had first sensed Su’e’s presence on Lin Yun, her face was full of disdain. Now, asking her to personally seek out Su’e was like asking for trouble...
Poor Su’e, always the unlucky one.
Spending too much time with her, one might also turn into an unlucky spirit.
Qian Qian had learned this from experience.
Thus, if it weren’t necessary, she really didn’t want to interact with Su’e.
But it seemed there were no other options now.
After much contemplation, Qian Qian finally made up her mind and said to Lin Yun, "Will you accompany me?"
Lin Yun, possibly being a Moon God Devotee, should be able to dispel some bad luck, right?
Besides, with a companion, Qian Qian would feel more at ease, ensuring she wouldn’t be duped by Su’e with no one the wiser.
As for Lin Yun’s safety, there was no need for excessive worry. Su’e was sealed and had lost her divine position. She might not even be able to contend with him now, let alone that their visit wasn’t for a confrontation. Considering old times’ sake, Su’e likely wouldn’t harm Lin Yun.
"That would be acceptable."
Lin Yun also had considered meeting Su’e early. In fact, he had even harbored thoughts of eliminating Su’e beforehand.
If she were dead, there’d be no way for Hong Yue to scheme against him covertly.
As for the agreement with Yuan Zidan, that was no longer important. With Lin Yun’s arrival, others would carry out the plans accordingly.
However...
Xiao Qing had been out for so long, why hadn’t she returned yet?
Well, given Xiao Qing’s capabilities, even if she couldn’t beat others, escaping wouldn’t be a problem.
Still, this was the first time Xiao Qing had left for so long, and without Qiaobian by her side, Lin Yun found it quite unsettling.
Nevertheless, he picked up the Thunderclap Sword, gave a few instructions to Bai Jiaojiao, and set off with Qian Qian.
Bai Jiaojiao: "..."
My sister’s bosom is so warm, are you sure you don’t want to come for a hug?
Bai Jiaojiao’s eyes held a trace of sorrow as she watched Lin Yun and Qian Qian leave. She had a faint feeling that she’d just gained a strong rival.
How laughable it was that Lin Yu, the Flower Fairy, and Dongfang Hongyue were still battling each other, oblivious to the fire that had started in their own backyard!
Underground.
Zhen Li’s vision once again displayed the scene where Lin Yun was located, him and Qian Qian journeying westward hand in hand, like a pair of celestial lovers.
She understood what the appearance of these images above her head meant.
Did they want to tell her that for another woman, Lin Yun had quickly put her issues aside?
Zhen Li indeed felt a bit sour in her heart, but it was limited to that.
At that moment, she suddenly understood why her master had chosen this Daoist name for her.
Li represents reason, as well as understanding.
For the person one loves, one should have more understanding.
So, not to mention seeing Lin Yun holding hands with another woman, even if she saw him doing the unspeakable with another woman, she would at most be jealous. Hating him would be impossible.
In the vision, Lin Yun and Qian Qian flickered a few times and arrived at the sandy expanse of Yellow Wind Valley in the western region.
Qian Qian immediately blushed and let go of Lin Yun’s hand.
This was her true form!
"Why do I feel that your hand is unusually soft and smooth today? It even has a hint of fragrance."
Although Lin Yun knew Qian Qian was shy, he deliberately said things to make her even more embarrassed. In reality, he did not feel much difference and had not noticed it, but it seemed he had accidentally hit the mark.
Qian Qian today was indeed different from before.
Having her true form pointed out, Qian Qian felt more nervous than shy.
He couldn’t have recognized my true form, could he?
Something felt wrong, a premonition in the back of her mind. Qian Qian felt that this time, she was going to encounter trouble.
"Stop talking nonsense, or I might have to hit you!"
Qian Qian tried to intimidate Lin Yun with her ferocious demeanor, hoping to make him behave. Little did she know her act was even more endearing, provoking Lin Yun to tease her further.
Zhen Li watched Lin Yun flirting with another woman, feeling as if she’d bitten into a lemon.
What exactly did I do wrong to be subjected to watching this?
She wanted to close her eyes, yet she found that even with them closed, the images would appear in her mind.
What sort of being have I provoked!
And it seemed that this entity harbored a deep resentment towards both Lin Yun and herself.
Could it be that in a past life, she and Lin Yun were a couple and this envious being, who now held her captive, was doing this to breed a heart demon within her?
The more she thought about it, the more it made sense!
She wasn’t angry anymore, just pitying someone who loved without being loved in return.
"Ah..."
The chains binding Zhen Li suddenly tightened significantly, clearly, her line of thought had angered the entity unwilling to show itself.
And the suffering Zhen Li was still watching as Lin Yun provoked Qian Qian, first with teasing words and now with direct touch, pinching her cheek.
Killing the body, and also the heart?
Qian Qian’s cheeks were bouncy and smooth; as a Divine Spirit, her skin was naturally impeccable.
She embodied absolute beauty, capable of bringing down cities and nations.
Qian Qian was not included in the Book Immortal’s rankings, probably because Divine Spirits were ineligible. However, the Book Immortal’s original list had the top two spots unnamed.
Lin Yu counted as one, but who could the other be?
If not a Divine Spirit, who else could make the Book Immortal wary?
If I ever see the Book Immortal again, I’ll be sure to ask.
Lin Yun touched Qian Qian’s face, finding it quite nice; it wasn’t the first time he had done so, but today Qian Qian was especially shy and astonishingly proud and fierce, which added to her charm and naturally made Lin Yun feel more accomplished.
I really want to taste what a Goddess is like!
Lin Yun was already calculating in his heart. Of course, the most pressing matters right now were Qian Qian’s inability to return, the calamity suppressed by the Heaven-Mending Stone, and finally dealing with Su’e.
Once these matters were handled, he could then have a taste.
Lin Yun was happy in his tofu-eating ways, and Qian Qian, the tofu-eater...
While not exactly unhappy, felt a bit unable to save face.
This time it was her true form, and she found no excuse to comfort herself.
She had no choice but to pretend this was just another incarnation of herself; yes, as long as I don’t say it, who would know?
"We should hurry and find Su’e, to avoid further complications," Qian Qian said, using the matter at hand to dissuade Lin Yun from his mischief. Lin Yun obediently stood to the side, watching Qian Qian cast her spell.
For mortals to seek out Divine Spirits was incredibly difficult, but it was a different story for Divine Spirits.
With Lin Yun’s description, and having met Su’e in the future, locating her now was merely a thought away for Qian Qian.
After only an instant of spellcasting, Qian Qian found the place, pulled Lin Yun along, and with a flash, they stood atop a sand dune.
The lake from before had become a sand dune, and nothing in the vicinity resembled Yellow Wind Valley anymore.
Thinking of Dongfang Hongyue hiding treasures here for a century, Lin Yun couldn’t help but chuckle.
But treasures were the last thing on his mind.
A little bit of wealth and low-level cultivation resources were of no use to him.
The Flower Fairy was once the wealthiest woman, yet she failed to transfer her wealth, leaving most of it in Guanghan Palace.
And now, Jiang Chenyu, another of his wives, ruled Guanghan Palace, meaning the money just shifted from one wife’s pocket to another’s.
Dongfang Hongyue’s century of accumulation naturally didn’t interest Lin Yun at all.
With a wave of Qian Qian’s hand, the sand dune disappeared, revealing the icy land beneath.
This icy surface, dense with chilling aura, contained an abundance of Taiyin power. Though Lin Yun didn’t specialize in Taiyin, he could feel it now.
Qian Qian had many ways to break the ice, and the simplest would be brutal force, but she did not resort to that.
Instead, she yelled at the rigid ice, "An old friend has come; would you show yourself?"
There is a saying: first courtesy, then soldiers. Qian Qian, seeking help, was naturally much more amiable.
Emerging from underwater, Su’e looked at the mortal and Divine Spirit above and felt a headache coming on.
Especially upon seeing Lin Yun; she felt such frustration!
Lin Yun was fated with her, so she bestowed upon him the Moon Water Spirit Pearl and allowed him to gain treasures from the Moon God Ruins through the pearl.
I have surely done my duty, haven’t I?
Yet this fellow turned out to be an ingrate, betraying her the moment her back was turned.
The Moon Water Spirit Pearl was given away, and the Primordial Chaos Bead was destroyed.
Though the bead had suffered extreme damage and was nearly beyond repair as a Heaven-Opening Divine Artifact, it was still a Divine Artifact.
And yet, Lin Yun used it as a disposable piece.
Su’e felt heartache for her treasure; it had accompanied her through many battles, achieved countless feats, and held numerous Divine Spirits at bay.
It was drained of Chaos Qi by Dongfang Yao, heavily damaged in the Outer Realm, and now had been blown up by Lin Yun; the once Heaven-Opening Divine Artifact had fallen to the status of an Immortal Artifact.
Heartbroken over her treasure, Su’e naturally looked at Lin Yun with unfriendly eyes.
But now she was no longer the Moon God; she was just Su’e.
This time she wasn’t looking for trouble with Lin Yun; rather, Lin Yun had come with ill intentions, seemingly to cause her trouble.
After taking her treasure, he still came to bother her; was he even human?
Su’e felt aggrieved, but she also knew it was impossible to escape today. In that case, it was better to meet him head-on and save face.
"You shouldn’t have come."
A deep sigh echoed as Su’e maintained her dignity; the heavy ice melted with the sigh, revealing the familiar sight of a lake shortly after.
That was Holy Spring Lake.
But the lake was devoid of much Spiritual Energy, unlike the abundance Lin Yun experienced when he first practiced there.
Lin Yun couldn’t help thinking that perhaps Su’e had intentionally cultivated him, helping him to amass Spiritual Power swiftly.
Su’e: "That’s right, you better hurry up and..."
"She must have had an ulterior motive."
Su’e: "It wasn’t me, stop accusing me, I haven’t..."
Seeing Lin Yun’s thoughts, Su’e was entirely unsettled.
Qian Qian, however, didn’t worry about that; to Su’e’s claim that she shouldn’t have come, Qian Qian simply responded, "I have my reasons to be here."
Lin Yun happened to be thinking about the three tasks he came here for, and Su’e, hearing his thoughts, felt utterly crestfallen...
To be bullied by a mortal was something she hadn’t seen...
