Night fell.
After glancing around the Hall of Hundred Flowers, Wu Fangyu and the others lost interest and returned to their rooms to sleep.
Although they didn't quite understand He Xiuyuan's words today, they had lost interest in the Baihua Fairy.
Especially since the hundred flowers had indeed mostly withered, there wasn't much to see.
Among the group, Du Linhui stayed a bit longer, wanting to draw a few more pictures.
By the time the moon hung high above the willows, Du Linhui tidied his things and prepared to leave.
Just as he was about to get up, a fragrant breeze suddenly wafted past him, and then a rather ordinary-looking woman sat down beside him.
"Young Master, are you leaving already? The Hall of Hundred Flowers only blooms once in a blue moon; won't you stay a little longer?"
The Baihua Fairy sat beside him, her gaze fixed on Du Linhui.
After leaving this morning, she had thought about it all day, and the more she thought, the more something felt off, so she had returned tonight to inquire about the situation.
She wanted to know who that person was who made the hundred flowers bloom earlier?
When that person made the hundred flowers bloom, her Dao had greatly increased after absorbing their Qi!
If such things happened a few more times, she would definitely be able to Cultivate the Dao!
With this thought, the Baihua Fairy directly cast an illusion to appear before Du Linhui, wanting to inquire about the situation.
Du Linhui looked at the slightly delicate-looking girl beside him, listened to her words, and shook his head.
"These flowers have withered; what's there to see?"
"Miss, you just arrived today. If you had come last night, you would have seen the hundred flowers in full bloom; the freshly bloomed flowers then were truly beautiful!"
Du Linhui said, rummaging around for a moment, then remembered that the drawings from last night were in his room and he hadn't brought them out.
The Baihua Fairy listened to his words, took the opportunity to continue the conversation, and asked,
"Yes, I heard the flowers had bloomed and rushed over, but I still didn't see the most beautiful scene of the hundred flowers."
At this point, she paused slightly, glanced at Du Linhui, and seeing him nod, she continued,
"Also, I heard that last night there was an extraordinary person who invited the Baihua Fairy to meet, and then the hundred flowers bloomed. Is that true?"
Upon hearing the girl mention this, Du Linhui instantly became animated.
"Of course it's true! Last night was quite a coincidence. Young Master He had been here for several days, specifically for that Baihua Fairy, saying he wanted to meet her."
"However, after several days, he still hadn't seen the Baihua Fairy, so last night, he openly invited her to appear and meet."
"Though the Baihua Fairy didn't appear, the hundred flowers bloomed in response, which was truly miraculous."
"Although there was a coincidence, the situation at that time indeed astonished many people."
This person knows that extraordinary person from last night?
Bai Muyun, the Baihua Fairy, had only intended to find someone to inquire about the extraordinary person from last night and where he was so she could visit him.
She never expected that Du Linhui not only knew this extraordinary person, but this extraordinary person also wanted to see her!
Upon hearing this, Bai Muyun's heart suddenly leaped.
At this moment, she understood that this extraordinary person made the hundred flowers bloom, presumably to inform her of his extraordinary nature, and then she would understand and meet him.
Once she understood this, Bai Muyun was ecstatic.
If that were the case, she just needed to seek him out, and she could naturally meet this extraordinary person!
Thinking of this, Bai Muyun couldn't help but smile as she asked,
"So that's how it is. Then, may I ask where this Young Master He is now?"
Bai Muyun directly pressed for an answer.
As long as she knew where He Xiuyuan was, she could go and pay her respects.
She was incredibly eager to meet this extraordinary person who could casually increase her Dao.
However, Du Linhui's subsequent reply caused her heart to sink directly to the bottom.
"Oh, you mean Young Master He? He left this morning."
"What, he left?"
Bai Muyun's smile instantly froze on her face, and then she stared at Du Linhui in disbelief.
Didn't he just say that He Xiuyuan had been waiting for her here for several days and even invited her to meet?
How could he now say that He Xiuyuan had already left? What was going on?
"Yes, actually, I saw that Baihua Fairy last night, but after mentioning it to Young Master He this morning, Young Master He lost the desire to meet the Baihua Fairy."
Du Linhui, currently unaware of Bai Muyun's expression, was still lost in thought, recalling the events of this morning.
Bai Muyun took a deep breath, her expression subtly changing, and quickly pressed, "Why?"
He Xiuyuan had been looking for her for days and even used such extraordinary means; why did he suddenly lose the desire to see her?
Du Linhui thought for a moment and then said, "I don't know the exact reason. I gave Young Master He the flowers from here at the time, fearing he wouldn't believe that the Baihua Fairy had appeared."
"After Young Master He looked at the flowers in the Hall of Hundred Flowers, he shook his head and said that there was no longer any need to meet this Baihua Fairy."
"And then, Young Master He also said that this Baihua Fairy Cultivates by seizing the creation of heaven and earth and encroaching on the mysteries of the sun and moon, which is not his Dao, so there was no need to meet her."
Du Linhui thought for a moment and repeated everything He Xiuyuan had said at the time.
"Seizing the creation of heaven and earth and encroaching on the mysteries of the sun and moon?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Muyun's expression drastically changed.
This single sentence had completely revealed her method of Cultivation!
However, she didn't know if there was a problem with this type of Cultivation or where she had gone wrong.
In her later Cultivation, her Dao had not increased much.
She vaguely knew that her path of Cultivation might be wrong, but she only understood this one Dao of Cultivation.
And now, He Xiuyuan had directly exposed her Dao of Cultivation, and furthermore, he seemed to be on another path of Cultivation.
Could it be that this person was one of the legendary Daoists?
Given his disdain for her Dao of Cultivation, it was very possible that he was a true Daoist!
As she thought of this, Bai Muyun's breathing quickened.
If he truly was a genuine Daoist, then if she could meet him, wouldn't she be able to receive his guidance and embark on the true path of Cultivation?
Thinking of this, Bai Muyun's body trembled involuntarily.
