So Easy to Foole

Valley of Flowers.

Mo Yurou sat in the main hall, holding a letter in her hand.

The letter was very short, just one line:

"Yun Zhongling of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect came to you to study; please look after him." — Chu Yuan

The signature was that name that gave her a headache.

Mo Yurou stared at the letter and read it three times.

Then she sighed and slammed the letter on the table.

After a long silence, she finally spoke, her tone tinged with helplessness:

"Why him of all people?"

......

Tianyi Sect, Outer Sect.

Chu Yuan and Yun Qingyao stood in front of the mountain gate, looking up at the plaque with the four large characters "Tianyi Dao Sect" written on it.

I must say, it's quite impressive.

Two disciples were standing at the entrance, chatting casually.

"Have you heard? The Demon Lord has executed the traitor."

"Nonsense, the news has spread everywhere. A Tribulation Transcending stage elder, killed without a second thought, tsk..."

"What exactly is the Demon Lord's cultivation level?"

"Who knows? Anyway, our sect leader is still in seclusion."

Chu Yuan listened without showing any emotion, but silently gave Qianji a thumbs up in his heart.

It spread pretty fast.

He stepped forward and bowed to the two disciples who were guiding him.

"My two senior brothers, I am Yuan Shu, a rogue cultivator, here to formally become your disciple."

Yun Qingyao, who was standing nearby, also came over and said with a grin:

"Me too! Me too! Yun Yao, the rogue cultivator, has also come to become your disciple!"

The two disciples exchanged a glance, and one of them nodded:

"Wait, I'll go get someone."

After saying that, he turned and walked inside.

Chu Yuan stood at the door, his gaze sweeping over the disciples coming and going.

Soon, he saw a familiar figure.

Li Han was carrying a stack of jade slips as he came out, talking to the person next to him as he walked:

"...Have you finished compiling the files for that batch of new disciples? The deacon wants to check them this afternoon..."

He was speaking when he glanced at the mountain gate out of the corner of his eye and suddenly froze.

Chu Yuan was looking at him with a smile.

Li Han almost dropped the jade slip in his hand.

He blinked hard to make sure he wasn't seeing things.

That kid…Junior Brother Yuan?!

Why did he end up here?

Li Han's mind went blank for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses.

He took a deep breath and shoved the jade slip into the hand of the person next to him:

"Take it in first, I have something to do."

After saying that, he strode towards the mountain gate.

Walking up to Chu Yuan, Li Han looked him up and down, then glanced at Yun Qingyao beside him, and lowered his voice:

"Junior Brother Yuan, what's wrong with you...?"

Chu Yuan looked completely bewildered:

"Senior Brother Li? What are you doing here?"

Li Han's lips twitched.

Shouldn't I be asking you that?

He coughed lightly and said to the two disciples who were guiding him:

"I know these two people, I'll make the arrangements, you guys go about your business."

The two disciples nodded, asked no further questions, and turned to leave.

Li Han pulled Chu Yuan inside:

"Come on, let's go inside and talk."

Yun Qingyao followed behind, blinking:

"Senior Brother Yuan, do you know this senior brother?"

Chu Yuan nodded:

"Yes, I've seen you before."

Li Han glanced back at Yun Qingyao, his expression somewhat complicated.

He knew this girl too.

Back in the White Bone Hall, I followed Junior Brother Yuan around every day.

I later found out that the girl was also an undercover agent.

No, wait a minute.

Wasn't this girl kept by the Demon Lord?

Why are you hanging out with Junior Brother Yuan again?

Li Han had a lot of questions in his mind, but now was not the time to ask.

He led the two to a secluded corner, and after making sure no one was around, he lowered his voice and asked:

"Junior Brother Yuan, tell me honestly, what brings you to the Heavenly Dao Sect?"

Chu Yuan blinked:

"Come and become my apprentice."

Li Han was taken aback:

"Become an apprentice? Aren't you...?"

He stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence.

wrong.

Junior Brother Yuan is a mole within the Heavenly Dao Sect, and he witnessed this firsthand.

That technique, that method, is definitely the Haoran Heart Sutra.

But now Junior Brother Yuan has come to the Heavenly Dao Sect to become an apprentice...

Li Han's mind raced, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

He got it!

This is a new mission from the sect!

Let the informant return as a rogue cultivator, so he can legitimately enter the sect and infiltrate it to complete a more secretive mission!

Wow, that's brilliant!

Li Han slapped his thigh:

"Junior Brother Yuan, you don't need to act anymore, I understand!"

Chu Yuan looked completely bewildered:

"Senior Brother Li, what are you talking about? I'm here to become your disciple."

Li Han waved his hand, giving him an expression that said, "I know, don't pretend."

"Alright, alright, I'll become your apprentice. Whatever you say goes."

He paused, then lowered his voice:

"But Junior Brother Yuan, now that you're here, please feel free to ask if there's anything you can help with. We're like brothers, aren't we? If it weren't for you back in the White Bone Hall incident, we might have been wiped out."

Chu Yuan was secretly laughing his head off.

His face remained blank.

"Senior Brother Li, I really have come here to become your disciple."

Li Han nodded:

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll become your apprentice."

He looked at Yun Qingyao:

"Is Miss Yun coming along too?"

Yun Qingyao said with a smile:

"Yes, I'm with Senior Brother Yuan."

Li Han felt even more confident.

This girl is also an undercover agent.

The fact that two undercover agents are coming back together means it must be a big mission!

He patted his chest:

"Alright, don't worry, I'll take care of everything here in the outer sect."

Chu Yuan almost lost his composure when he saw Li Han's "I understand" expression.

He secretly activated his Eye of Truth.

[Target: Li Han]

[Fate's trajectory: Firmly believing that Yuan Shu is a hidden agent of the Heavenly Dao Sect, he prepares to secretly provide assistance and help him complete his mission...]

[Fortune: White]

Chu Yuan: "..."

Fine.

He withdrew his gaze and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Li Han:

"Then thank you very much, Senior Brother Li."

Li Han waved his hand:

"Don't mention it! Come on, I'll take you to get the paperwork done."

Half an hour later.

Chu Yuan and Yun Qingyao stood in front of a small courtyard.

Li Han pointed to the courtyard:

"This is your accommodation. It's a bit basic, so please don't mind. This is how it is for outer disciples. It will be better once you enter the inner sect."

Chu Yuan nodded:

"Thank you, Senior Brother Li."

Li Han looked around and lowered his voice:

"Junior Brother Yuan, are you free tonight? I'd like to treat you to a drink."

Chu Yuan thought for a moment:

"OK."

Li Han smiled, patted his shoulder, turned and left, then suddenly remembered something:

"Elder Mingri seems to be coming to inspect the new disciples, so be careful."

Chu Yuan nodded and thanked Li Han.

Yun Qingyao leaned closer:

"Senior Brother Yuan, this Senior Brother Li is a really nice person."

Chu Yuan nodded:

"Yes, that's good."

Yun Qingyao blinked:

"What did he mean when he said 'there's no need to act anymore'?"

Chu Yuan glanced at her:

"I don't know either."

Yun Qingyao scratched her head, didn't think much of it, and pushed the door open to go inside.

Chu Yuan stood in the courtyard, looking at the simple little house, a slight smile playing on his lips.

How did you manage to sneak in like that?

And you even got an eyeliner for free?

He went into his room and lay down on the bed.

To be honest, the beds at the Heavenly Dao Sect are more comfortable than those at the White Bone Palace.

night.

Li Han brought two jugs of wine to find Chu Yuan.

The two sat in the courtyard, drinking and chatting.

Li Han lowered his voice:

"Junior Brother Yuan, tell me honestly, is there some important mission you've come back for?"

Chu Yuan took a sip of wine:

"Senior Brother Li, I really have come to become your disciple."

Li Han gave him a "stop pretending" look:

"Alright, alright, I'll take you on as my apprentice. Which lineage do you plan to follow?"
