I Have A Dual World Seal-Chapter 776 Someone Fell for It

Of course, Saintess Zhilan couldn't stop Du Yueyao from acting, and naturally, she couldn't accompany Du Yueyao to Renxin Hall to sit in consultation.

"The Saintess has not set foot in the Central Plains for many years. How about letting me accompany you for a stroll around the area?" Shen Ying suggested with a smile, "There are some interesting places in Tonglin County, and although there are no famous mountains or rivers nearby, some serene sceneries have their unique charms. To the south, there's a Hundred Springs Valley, and now that the weather is just warming up, it's the perfect time for a soak in the springs."

Shen Ying wore a peach blossom silk gown that trailed on the ground, her pink eyeshadow extending to her temples. Her appearance was extraordinarily alluring, with an elegant and sensual aura. Her energy was pure and abundant, not as abundant as that of Saintess Zhilan, but even purer, signifying a deep foundation and boundless prospects.

Facing her, with an attitude neither servile nor overbearing, her demeanor was calm, and her presence was not inferior. In fact, it even added a hint of proprietorship.

"Thank you for your gracious hospitality, Fairy," Saintess Zhilan nodded, "Please, just call me Zhilan."

Shen Ying gave a slight bow, smiling as she gestured invitingly, "Zhilan, sister, please follow me. How about we first visit my Peach Blossom Plain?"

"Please~"

"Please~"

With a light motion, Shen Ying used a blinding technique that could only deceive ordinary people and soared into the sky. Saintess Zhilan followed suit, and the two of them headed straight south.

Fan Boyu made a slight bow, apologetically, "Thank you, young master, for your understanding."

Lu Zheng nodded and asked, "Does Saintess Zhilan wish to take Yueyao to the Southern Border?"

Fan Boyu hurriedly shook his head, "I learned yesterday of the young master's guidance for Yueyao and also of Miss Liu's care for her. The Saintess has decided not to take Yueyao back to the Southern Border but will visit frequently in the future."

Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow, "Visit frequently?"

Fan Boyu said, "At most, only once a year."

Lu Zheng nodded, gesturing with his hand, "Shall we go to Leping Building?"

Fan Boyu nodded with a smile, "Let's go!"

...

In the evening, Lu Zheng habitually used the Cloud Palace Treasure Mirror to take a tour around Tonglin County and planted spell seals in several underground locations within a few miles around as a precaution.

...

A period of peaceful days passed, with neither the ancient nor modern sides witnessing any major events.

On the modern side, after Lin Wan returned from Southeast Asia, a case emerged domestically. She collaborated with international Interpol, made a trip to the Shu Region, and then returned to continue working overtime, investigating the whereabouts of the last sheep head bronze statue.

On the ancient side, Lu Zheng routinely visited the White Cloud Temple, paid a visit to the Lu River God's Mansion, hosted the visiting sisters from the Huangfu Family, and spent the remaining time leisurely.

In the blink of an eye, more than a month passed, and Saintess Zhilan was about to return.

...

"Thank you all for your hospitality." Saintess Zhilan apparently in a good mood, said with a smile.

During this period, Shen Ying took Saintess Zhilan to tour the surrounding attractions, Liu Qingyan and Du Yueyao also took her to see a few opera performances at Yu Ling Garden. The fruits, snacks, and even mahjong that Lu Zheng brought to this place gave Saintess Zhilan a new and delightful experience.

In a month's time, Saintess Zhilan had quite a fulfilling experience.

"You're welcome, as long as the Saintess is satisfied," Lu Zheng replied. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Saintess Zhilan then looked at Du Yueyao, her tone laced with mirth, "And regarding the Su Nu's Prayer Method, with the cultivation technique completed by my junior sister, I feel a slight breakthrough in my cultivation these days. Maybe there's no need for my junior sister to turn the tide single-handedly; with our few elder bones, we even might manage to win a game."

Du Yueyao smiled a bit sheepishly, "As long as it helps you, senior sister, I'm relieved, I'm sorry…"

Saintess Zhilan shook her head, glanced at Fan Boyu, and then at Lu Zheng, "Junior sister, there's no need to apologize; it's just a year, it doesn't delay matters, and besides, it isn't your fault."

Lu Zheng sat steadily at the fishing platform, lightly shaking the folded fan in his hand, his expression unchanged, as if he didn't hear that what Saintess Zhilan said was about him.

Fan Boyu, being an experienced hand, sat there with his eyes half-closed, looking as if he were about to fall asleep.

Du Yueyao couldn't help but laugh, finding that the Saintess Zhilan was quite kind to her. Over the past month, Zhilan had shared her insights into cultivating the Su Nu's Prayer Method comprehensively, with no reservations, and the guidance from Lu Zheng complemented it, deepening her understanding of the cultivation technique, ensuring that her future cultivation would proceed without hindrance.

"If time permits, you should focus more on cultivation," Saintess Zhilan advised Du Yueyao, "Even for your safety, to let Brother Lu worry less about you, you should cultivate seriously, aim to enter the hall early, assume the position of the sect leader in the future, and once you have achieved longevity, you can treat the illnesses of mortals whenever you wish."

Du Yueyao solemnly nodded, "Thank you, senior sister, for your guidance, Yueyao understands."

Saintess Zhilan shook her head helplessly, knowing well that Du Yueyao had discussed this with Lu Zheng. According to Lu Zheng, each period has its mindset; not everything can be made up for afterward.

And evidently, Du Yueyao listened more to Lu Zheng.

"Alright, as long as you know what's on your mind." Saintess Zhilan did not insist further, after all, Du Yueyao was already cultivating faster than those direct disciples in the Primordial Saint Sect, what more could she want?

They escorted Saintess Zhilan and Fan Boyu to the door.

"Cultivate well, I'll be back next year." Saintess Zhilan said to Du Yueyao, then bid farewell to the others before soaring into the sky, taking Fan Boyu along, the two transforming into streaks of white light heading south.

...

The moon was hidden by clouds, and darkness enveloped the land.

Du Yueyao had already gone to bed, the servants extinguished the lights and rested in their respective quarters.

Shen Ying had returned to Peach Blossom Plain, the Liu family had also retired early, Yue Honghai was meditating in cultivation, and Lu Zheng hadn't emerged since entering his bedroom at the hour of Hai.

Outside Tongyi Lane, a figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere. After flickering for a moment, there appeared a woman in white garments, with an icy countenance.

"Staying for a month and leaving today, it seems this new Saintess is not an ordinary character after all." The woman in white chuckled coldly, her gaze directing towards Du Yueyao's residence, her eyes shimmering with divine light, "To catch Fan Boyu's earnest concern and cause Xue Yi to lose her life in the Central Plains, surely a promising seedling for cultivating the Su Nu's Prayer Method... In that case..."

The woman in white floated effortlessly into the Du family's backyard and cast a forbidden technique to isolate the fluctuation of spiritual qi, then boldly pushed open Du Yueyao's bedroom door.

Du Yueyao jerked awake, looking at the woman in white with terrified eyes, "Who are you?"

"Come with me, I'm here to take you as my..."

The woman in white started to say, but her pupils suddenly contracted, and she immediately retreated, swiftly withdrawing to the door of the bedroom in the blink of an eye.

However, no sooner had she exited the room than she noticed the surroundings were filled with white cloud qi, intermingled with a wisp of pink mist, the aura carrying a murderous intent. Combined with the innate white cloud qi, it sealed off the courtyard, inverting the four directions, trapping her right there on the spot.
