Chapter 141 Concerning Hengyue
Zhou Ling was free anyway, and actually felt a little uneasy about leaving the Bingyu Sect soon.
So, before her mother returned, she cast a fortune and told God the direction in which she and her mother would depart, asking for a good journey.
As the copper plate in the tortoise shell fell, the creaking sound of the room door opening was heard.
A gust of wind blew the small strands of hair on Zhou Ling's forehead, sweeping across her eyes...
The wind was so strong that it was blinding, and the hexagram that had fallen was useless following this divine intervention.
Well, her original intention of learning this was to unlock the clues given by Heaven, but later on, she discovered that she couldn’t unlock the clues at all!
How can man go against heaven? Zhou Ling has had a thorough understanding of this since he started cultivating immortals and learned divination and numerology.
At the beginning, it seemed like a hint from heaven, but it seemed like some kind of restriction was set by heaven. She could see a little bit when she was in the Qi Refining Stage. Later, when her cultivation broke through the Foundation Establishment Stage, she could see a little bit more. No matter how many books she read or how much theoretical knowledge she learned, when she was unable to solve the problem, there were always various small accidents that blocked her way.
She finally understood that this thing was actually unlocked by accumulating experience.
Now her cultivation is weak, and she can only unlock a little bit. But as her cultivation continues to increase and her strength improves, the mysteries she can solve will become bigger.
Hey……
Zhou Ling closed her eyes and raised her hand to gently tidy up her messy hair, but suddenly, her ears moved and she seemed to vaguely hear the sound of footsteps moving slightly.
She turned around quickly and caught the person at the door red-handed.
"who are you?"
Zhou Ling picked up a few copper coins on the table, stood up, and stared at the tall man standing at the door with a vigilant look.
This man looks familiar...
Zhou Ling gritted her teeth. She didn’t care whether he looked familiar or not. What she cared about was that something was not right. The room where she and her mother lived in Bingyu Sect was the most ordinary and inconspicuous one among the many disciples’ houses.
The house is surrounded by tall trees, has a relatively hidden location, and has very obvious features. No one would take the wrong path and accidentally stumble upon it, thinking it is their home!
Faced with the girl's vigilance and questioning, Sheng Yuan raised his hand to knock on the door, but he didn't know whether to raise it or put it back. He was so awkward for a moment and couldn't be any more stiff.
How could this happen, a door, a scammer actually hit his hand?
He just raised his hand to knock on the door, but a gust of wind blew the door open with a creak before his knuckles touched it.
At first glance, it seemed like he was impolite, as he walked in and pushed the door without knocking or asking the owner's permission.
Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous!
Looking up and meeting the eyes of the girl in the room, Sheng Yuan realized that if he didn't take the initiative to speak, the girl would not ask him again. If she saw something wrong, she might just rush over and hit him.
He had seen the girl's temper before and didn't dare to let her continue to doubt him.
"My name is Sheng Yuan. I came to see you because I have something to tell you."
Sheng Yuan thought that it would be enough to just say his name. After all, everyone in the entire world of immortal cultivation knew him.
In the world of immortal cultivation, before his real strength was revealed, he was already famous for his beauty.
Although it was embarrassing for him to be a man, he was most famous for his unparalleled appearance, but the fact was that before the girl's master appeared in the world, especially among the many female cultivators, whenever they talked about appearance, they would definitely mention him. So, he thought that the little girl and her mother had at least heard of his name and deeds.
As long as you know him, the subsequent conversation will go more smoothly.
But who would have thought that this little girl obviously didn't play by the rules.
Zhou Ling's little face was still full of confusion. She remained silent and waited for a while. Seeing that the man only gave his name and didn't say anything else, she couldn't help it anymore. She raised her eyebrows and shrugged.
"I don't know him, I've never heard of him. What's the matter with you?"
Chi Cheng asked, leaving Sheng Yuangan silent.
The world is forgetting him, but who would have thought that it has been forgotten to this extent?
This girl and his mother are both women. He thought that even if his strength is not as good as it was in the past, his appearance will continue to be spread among many female cultivators. However...
Forget it, maybe this little girl and her mother don’t usually talk about these things, so in this case, then they don’t know each other.
"Can I go in and talk?"
What he was about to say was too confidential. Although he had checked the surroundings and found no one else, it would be safer to go into the house and set up a barrier just in case.
"You and I are not acquainted, so it is not convenient for us to come into the house. If we have anything to say, it will be the same if we stand outside the door and talk."
Zhou Ling was always very cautious, but now she was more than just cautious, she was also a little nervous.
"It's about Hengyue."
Faced with the girl's extreme vigilance, Sheng Yuan was not annoyed, but rather felt a little relieved.
Being vigilant is not a bad thing. No matter who you are facing, only by maintaining sufficient vigilance can you go further on the path of cultivating immortals. After all, you must be on guard against others. Even the closest people may stab you in the back suddenly.
So, Sheng Yuan lowered his voice and explained it to her.
When Zhou Ling heard the four words "Heng Yue", the scenery in front of her eyes blurred, her head was buzzing, and she could not hear clearly any sound.
"Senior, please come in."
Regardless of whether the other party is an enemy or a friend, the fact that he can access information about her and Hengyue is beyond her ability to resist at her level.
Whether they were her own people or those sent by the demons to kill her, she was powerless to resist and could only move forward tentatively.
As he wished, the first thing Sheng Yuan did after entering the house was to close the house's own barrier with a wave of his sleeves, and also added another layer of knots he had laid.
"To make a long story short, I know you are training outside. The matter of Hengyue is very confidential and cannot be known to outsiders, but it is not appropriate for you to keep hiding Hengyue. I believe you also know that the demons would rather kill the wrong person than let him go, and have been chasing you to kill you, but in fact, they are also looking for other suspected descendants of Hengyue, and want to kill them, just because he can feel that the Hengyue Sword has really appeared in the world. Back then, he was suppressed and sealed by the Hengyue Fairy, one person and one sword, which triggered the power of the Heavenly Dao. In a mysterious way, he was connected to the Hengyue Sword that sealed him. If one is strong, there must be a weak one.
"My dear Zhou, remember that after the death of Fairy Hengyue, the demon clan has been trying to break the seal, but at the beginning, his struggle was ineffective. Until recently, the Hengyue Sword lost its master, and its own sword spirit gradually faded, which led to insufficient suppression power, allowing him to break the seal. But now Hengyue has found a new master, as long as you practice properly and the Hengyue Sword Spirit does not dissipate, the seal of that year will no longer be as fragile as before, and he will not be able to break free easily."
