Chapter 404
: Come out and see me
Once both sides ceased fighting, and the silver snail and jade vortex sounded the retreat, they began to discuss the day's events and exchange information.
Seeing that everything was going smoothly, Qin Yingxue continued, "After attending your initiation ceremony at the beginning of next month, my junior sister and I will return to the palace in advance to make arrangements. You can come with Li Zaiyun after the New Year, and I will come to pick you up then."
Lin Yuan discovered that although she was strong-willed, she was also opinionated and capable of thinking things through and arranging them clearly.
He immediately nodded and smiled: "Having a fairy in the house is like having a treasure."
Stop being so cheeky.
Lin Yuan suggested, "Then I'll go into seclusion for a few more days tomorrow, which will give my sister more time to cultivate and improve her cultivation."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will mount my horse immediately and charge into battle for you."
"Pfft..." Qin Yingxue, always quick-witted, immediately understood and couldn't help but laugh out loud. Then, feeling ashamed, she blushed and immediately stopped laughing, saying irritably, "You thieving general, I'll kill you first."
"Come on, let's fight five hundred rounds!"
"Giggle..."
The two finished their cultivation.

Qin Yingxue was reluctant to let him leave, and gave him a few more words of advice before he went.
Lin Yuan nodded in agreement and quickly moved to the bedroom.
At this moment, a beautiful woman lay on the jade couch, pouring herself a drink.
There was little verbal exchange, only the fleeting beauty of spring water in a jade pot...
Seeing that time was running out, he could only cram at the last minute, hoping for something even if it wasn't quick.
……
Five watch.
Lin Yuan used the third-tier Moon Silkworm Armor as cover to leave the cave, and no one in the valley discovered his whereabouts.
Back at the Myriad Waters Cave, he opened Fairy Water Moon's food box and ate heartily, then couldn't help but comment:
"The cooking is really good. It seems I'll be in for a treat when I go to the Moon Palace. But I'm a body cultivator after all, so the flavor is a bit bland. It would be perfect if a few more kinds of demon beast meat were added. When I get to the Moon Palace, I must give the fairy some suggestions and try to improve it further."
He bathed and changed his clothes, and fed Qingluan some spirit fruits. Unfortunately, the spirit bamboo fruits were all gone. Now that it was winter, the disciples in the valley did not go into the mountains, and spirit bamboo fruits were hard to come by, so he could only feed it ordinary spirit fruits.
Fortunately, Qingluan is not picky.
It's not that it's not picky; it's that it's figured out that if it follows Lin Yuan and gets a full meal but goes hungry for three days, it wouldn't dare to be picky if it has food to eat.
During the daytime, Lin Yuan visited Liang Yingxiao again, and then told his third senior brother and Xiaobaihua that he would be going into seclusion for a few days.
I was busy until the afternoon, when the sun was already setting, before I finally finished.
It was still early before midnight, so he lay on the couch for a short rest. At the same time, he opened the Dan Gong Linglong (a magical palace in the body), releasing golden, extremely yang energy to nourish his meridians and body, preparing for their joint cultivation that night.
However, he found that cultivating the Great Bliss Sutra with the fairies to temper his divine sense was not as efficient as he had imagined, and it was not faster than cultivating on his own.
This disappointed him somewhat. Normally, one plus one should be greater than two, so how could it be different?
He has always enjoyed summarizing experiences, so he analyzed the reasons one by one, identified shortcomings, and found several areas where he could further improve:
First, he uses the high-frequency trembling cultivation method when he cultivates alone, but he doesn't dare to use it when cultivating with others, mainly because he is worried that if one of them doesn't coordinate well, something will go wrong;
He used the high-frequency trembling technique when he was practicing martial arts in his early years. After practicing for so many years, he can be said to have mastered it and become extremely proficient.
If I can apply this method to joint cultivation, I will definitely be able to raise the efficiency of cultivation to a new level.

So he secretly put the plan on the agenda.
Secondly, he had only recently begun learning the fourth level of the Great Joy Sutra, and was still in the early stages, which indeed slowed down his cultivation efficiency. The fairies, too, seemed to be struggling as well, just like him, slowly figuring things out and making progress.
This can only be improved through practice and reflection.
Third, his cultivation method and attributes are different from those of the Moon Palace Fairy, so he cannot achieve the perfect state of harmony described in the Great Joy Sutra.
They cultivate the Five Elements Returning to Origin Qi, which includes Water Element True Qi, and can withstand the flow of their Water Element True Qi. However, they cannot withstand the other four elements of the Five Elements Returning to Origin Qi, which inevitably causes some stagnation when circulating their Qi.
No wonder Jiang Yingyue once advised me to switch to water-based cultivation techniques; it seems she was preparing for us to cultivate together.
If only I could cultivate the "Nine Revolutions of White Water Heart Method" personally passed down by Baiyun Valley, it would be perfect for matching the Moon Palace Heart Method, and it wouldn't be as dangerous as the Five Elements Returning to Origin Qi.
No wonder Baiyun Valley built the Moon Welcoming Cave so luxuriously; it seems it was built to attract the Moon Palace Fairy, since the two sects' cultivation methods are most compatible.
There's a reason why Baiyun Valley has been able to thrive for so long.
Unfortunately, neither Zhen Baiyun nor Li Yuanshan passed on this method; they both had their own selfish motives.
After pondering for an unknown amount of time, Lin Yuan drifted off to sleep.
Suddenly, he heard a knock on the door.
Lin Yuan opened his eyes and found that Yu'er was not beside him. With no one to do anything for him, he got up on his own.
He opened the door and saw that it was dark outside. Three people were standing in the darkness: his third senior brother, Qian Tao, and Li Jing.
Li Jing kept observing him, but didn't say anything.
The third senior brother spoke first: "Master is seriously ill, come with me quickly."
"Oh, okay." Lin Yuan frowned, becoming wary, but he didn't stop and quickly followed.
Why did Zhen Baiyun suddenly become seriously ill when she never got sick earlier or later?
That shouldn't be happening!
Is that old scoundrel up to something again?
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon.
Lin Yuan sensed something was wrong here. He believed that one should consider the possibility of failure before the possibility of victory, and that as long as everyone was safe, everything else was trivial. So he began to look for an opportunity.
The four hurriedly headed towards Baiyun Cave, meeting up with other fellow disciples along the way.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lin Yuan slowed down a few steps and secretly used the jade bracelet to transmit his voice. He did not transmit sound, but only four vibrations.
This was the secret code Qin Yingxue and he had agreed upon. The number four signified trouble, served as a warning, and also meant for them to prepare in advance.
If anything goes wrong, Lin Yuan will immediately flee to join them.
Fortunately, since his relationship with Jiang Yingyue was made public in the valley, it was reasonable for him to wear the Moon Silkworm Robe. Therefore, he no longer hid it from his master and fellow disciples and wore it all the time.
He sensed Linglong's condition again and felt more confident.
However, he was still not at ease, so he secretly prepared some of his trump cards in advance.
Just then, Li Zaiyun also rushed over from the cave, his eyes slightly red and his voice low: "Junior Brother."
Lin Yuan no longer kept his distance from her as usual, and walked directly alongside her, completely ignoring the strange looks from his fellow disciples: "Okay, let's go."
As soon as everyone entered the cave, the wine server immediately closed the stone door and sealed off the restrictions.
Her third senior brother turned around and gave her a deep look. She immediately shrank back but didn't say anything.
Lin Yuan also had some knowledge of this, but usually he would only close the stone gate and not seal the restrictions, but he didn't ask.
When everyone crossed the corridor and headed towards their master's bedroom.
Standing in the corridor outside the bedroom door was Li Zaijin, the tenth senior brother who had arrived long ago.
He looked at Lin Yuan from afar and quickly said with a forced smile, "Junior Brother is here."
Lin Yuan, whose path was blocked, replied with a smile, "Hmm, how long have you been here, Tenth Senior Brother?"
Since he was promoted to a disciple, Li Zaijin rarely came to see him. He was afraid that his brother would suffer, and he was also afraid that his junior brother would be promoted, so they became somewhat distant and their contact gradually decreased.
If someone suddenly steps forward to greet you at this moment, they must have something on their mind.
"Not long." Li Zaijin gave an awkward smile, then said, "Fifth Senior Brother asked you to wait outside. He has something to tell you. Ninth Senior Sister, you should go in quickly. This is none of your business."
Li Zaiyun was somewhat at a loss and instead of going in, he looked at Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan immediately sensed something was wrong, so he shouted loudly, "Fifth Senior Brother, please come out and see me!"
His sound waves carried true energy, and the sound reverberated throughout the entire cave, causing the senior brothers who had already entered the main cultivation room to turn around and look back.
Upon hearing this, the third senior brother, who had just entered the bedroom, became somewhat annoyed. He immediately turned around and came out, pointing at Lin Yuan and scolding, "What are you shouting for? Don't you know Father is seriously ill? You have no manners at all, come in here right now."
"Yes." Lin Yuan knew he had been rude just now, and it was normal for his third senior brother to scold him, so he grabbed Xiaobaihua's arm and followed his third senior brother.
Li Zaijin quickly reached out to stop Lin Yuan, and then said to Li Zaiguan, "Third Senior Brother, Fifth Senior Brother told Junior Brother to stay outside."
Lin Yuan didn't make a move either, but instead looked at his third senior brother and waited for him to deal with the situation first.
"What are you doing outside?" Li Zaiguan was taken aback. He looked around at everyone and suddenly realized that although Lin Yuan had been rude, there seemed to be a reason for it. He immediately stared at Li Zaijin and scrutinized him.
The Duguan Hall, as the name suggests, is the general manager's hall, which is in charge of all affairs in the valley. However, with so many affairs, it is impossible to manage everything, so the main responsibility is to manage the personnel arrangements of the entire valley.
Personnel matters are power, personnel matters are politics. Li Zaiguan has been in charge of the management office for many years. He is deeply trusted by his master and cousin, and his father has always placed great authority in him.
As the saying goes, a person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. Even the true disciple Li Zaihao wouldn't dare to act arrogantly in front of him. As for the other disciples, how could they dare to be presumptuous in front of him?
Li Zaijin had witnessed the prestige of his third senior brother, and when questioned, he immediately didn't know how to explain. He could only plead, "It was Fifth Senior Brother's instruction. Third Senior Brother, please don't worry about it."
The third senior brother sensed the hidden meaning in his words and couldn't help but laugh in anger: "Now that Master is seriously ill, instead of thinking about him, what are you all doing! Huh!"
This sound startled everyone present.
At this time, the second senior brother Wu Zaiyan was not present, and the other disciples, whether in terms of seniority or prestige, could not compare to him, so they all lowered their heads and remained silent.
Li Zaijin was getting nervous from the question. He was already a little uneasy about blocking Lin Yuan, who was in the Foundation Establishment stage. At this moment, he clicked his tongue, turned his hand back, lowered his head, and remained silent, waiting for his fifth senior brother to come and negotiate.
In his previous life, Lin Yuan often read in history books that an old minister of a country could give orders to a young emperor face to face. Now, seeing his third senior brother's imposing presence, he finally experienced it firsthand. No matter that he and his fifth senior brother were both true disciples, they were both a little intimidated in front of their third senior brother, a powerful old minister.
With no response, the third senior brother scolded again, "What are you all standing there for? Come in!"
Lin Yuan immediately followed his third senior brother into the bedroom.
After passing the screen and shadow wall, I arrived at the bedside.
At this moment, Lee Jae-ho was kneeling in front of the bed, his fists clenched, his face turning pale and then red.
He heard everything that was happening outside and couldn't help but curse Li Zaijin for not being able to handle such a small matter. He also cursed his third senior brother for being so meddlesome and for not giving him any face.
But he did not leave, nor did he respond, because he wanted to stay here and maintain the moral high ground.
