Wang Jixuan felt a bit sentimental and sighed, "Hall Master, this is not your fault."

"Just a story I made up, and you actually believed it, hahaha."

Yin Lin's laughter sounded a bit forced.

Wang Jixuan gently nodded, playing with the teacup in his hands, and softly said, "Actually, I sometimes feel lost too. For the sake of becoming immortal, I've almost given up everything, even letting down many people, leaving those I shouldn't have left... but in the end, the world I yearned for wasn't a place of eternal joy, nor the end of cultivation, just another beginning."

"It's up to your own choices."

Yin Lin summoned some tea and poured it for Wang Jixuan:

"Living beings are always like this. What they desire but cannot obtain is the most tormenting, while things that are easily within reach tend to be neglected.

"Your path is still long, Wang Zheng, I can see a certain Qi in you."

"Qi?"

"Yes, it's vigour, it's also stagnation, it's the vitality of all things, yet also the decay of the earth."

Yin Lin smiled awkwardly:

"I can observe Qi, as well as perform divination, but I cannot see your root energy, nor calculate your fate.

"Your experiences are too extraordinary, originally just an excellent Fate Chart, but now after much tempering, you have an extraordinary Fate Chart.

"If one day you can reach the Immortal Realm, you should be able to establish a career."

Wang Jixuan looked at Yin Lin a bit helplessly: "How many people have you told this to in the past ten years?"

Yin Lin answered honestly: "Four or five, not many, after all, young people seldom come to Tianluo, they are mostly those thousand or eight-hundred-year-old guys, whose mentality is long since old and can't be easily swayed."

After saying this, both of them laughed and chuckled aloud.

Suddenly, a shout came from the side from Zheng Shiduo: "Let go of me!"

Wang Jixuan and Yin Lin exchanged glances.

Their Spirit Stones and immortal senses were directed further away, not paying attention to what was happening here.

It is somewhat taboo for women to have their clothes tailored, so the sewing shop spared no expense on the isolation Formation, and each garment comes with a concealment-type Prohibition so that when observed with Spiritual Sense, only general outlines are visible.

Master Wang stood up and said, "I'll go take a look."

"Hey," Yin Lin said, "your subordinates are not weak, in this workshop as long as those dozen old things don't make a move, they can walk sideways, what to fear?"

Wang Jixuan shook his head, focused his Spiritual Sense at the entrance of the sewing shop, and looked in.

He originally thought some rogue was harassing Amina and Xiao Huating.

To be fair, when Amina wore that kind of elegant long dress, her presence was outstanding, sexy and gentle, a rare beauty.

And when Amina switched to a long dress from the Cultivation World, that aura became ethereal and sophisticated, creating an extremely rare contradiction of her own, with deep blue long hair and delicate, three-dimensional features, forming a captivating spiritual aura.

Such beauty naturally invites the covetousness of lecherous people.

But Wang Jixuan never expected...

That the one being harassed was... Zheng Shiduo.

A middle-aged woman in monk's robes had grabbed Zheng Shiduo's wrist and was speaking smilingly.

Xiao Huating and Amina were respectively selecting fabrics and already dressed in a new Immortal Dress, coming out from the back ready to pay;

They were both curiously looking at Lao Zheng who was choosing fake hairpins.

Master Wang was a bit confused, directly leaving his seat, entering the Array Light Barrier of the sewing shop.

Lao Zheng seemed to see a savior, shouting: "Wang! Save me, Wang! This person wants to take me to be a monk!"

The middle-aged woman in monk's robes turned to look at Wang Jixuan, discovering she couldn't perceive Wang Jixuan's Qi, knowing in her heart that this must be an expert above Divinity Transformation, Unification, and did not dare to be negligent, bowing her head in salute.

"Greetings, senior," the woman in monk's robes smiled and said, "Please do not blame me, senior, it's just that upon seeing a male cultivator so harmoniously matched with our sect's Cultivation Technique, I truly couldn't contain my excitement and wanted to invite this fellow back to the mountain to cultivate!"

Wang Jixuan nodded: "May I ask who your teacher is, fellow?"

"You Bao Realm, Qingyun Temple."

When announcing her sect, the woman in monk's robes visibly straightened her back.

Wang Jixuan heard Yin Lin's transmission: "One of the Ten Great Sects of You Bao Realm, Buddhist Practitioner, with seven or eight Loose Immortals often stationed; affiliated with the Immortal Realm's Buddhist lineage."

The Daoist cupped his hands and smiled: "My respects, my respects, so you're an elder from Qingyun Temple... My brother did practice some Buddhist Law in the past, but it was quite superficial; I'm afraid you'll be disappointed, elder."

Elder, a term of respect for Buddhist practitioners.

The woman in monk's robes clicked her tongue: "Look at what you're saying, how could I have mistaken this fellow Daoist for possessing a Buddhist bone?"

Zheng Shiduo hesitated to speak.

Xiao Huating couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The woman in monk's robes frowned at her, scolding: "Why do you laugh, fellow Daoist? What is so funny about this? Do you look down on our Qingyun Temple!"

Wang Jixuan's expression gradually turned cold.

Xiao Huating hurriedly said, "Please don't be offended. We are friends and know each other's temper and preferences well. I just heard he carries a Buddha bone... and found it somewhat amusing."

"I'm really not a proper cultivator."

Zheng Shiduo emotionally said:

"You might as well spare me. I am... a loyal servant of our young master, nothing more. I don't practice any cultivation method, and it's only because my young master thinks highly of me that I get to call him brother."

"That's even better."

The female cultivator in monk's robes released Zheng Shiduo's arm, then turned to Wang Jixuan, clasping her hands in a respectful Buddhist greeting.

She said, "I ask of you, fellow Daoist, to name your price. How many Spirit Stones would it take for you to release this fellow Daoist? Qingyun Temple will gather the resources at all costs."

"Hmph!"

Wang Jixuan's expression grew cold:

"My friend is not for sale. You from Qingyun Temple are well known, are you trying to bully with power?"

"Fellow Daoist, that's a bit harsh to say."

The female cultivator in monk's robes chuckled awkwardly:

"Qingyun Temple is a place of pure cultivation, we're not evildoers."

"In that case," Wang Jixuan clasped his hands, "Buddhist sects speak of karmic ties. Today, it seems the karmic ties between you and my friend are not meant to be. I won't see you off."

The female cultivator's face stiffened a bit.

She glanced deeply at Wang Jixuan a few times, nodded with a smile, and spoke warmly: "If that's so, then I won't disturb you any longer."

With that, she turned and left the tailor shop, her figure quickly disappearing.

Wang Jixuan smirked.

Logically, they might as well leave now.

However... he is now a man of Tianluo, and the Hall Master of Tianluo is nearby, so let's see what tricks this woman might pull.

"Continue shopping for clothes, once we're done we'll look at other items. Don't worry about anything else."

Wang Jixuan calmly turned and returned to the tea shop seating, continuing to drink tea and chat with Yin Lin.

The tailor shopkeeper, upon seeing Wang Jixuan so unkind to Qingyun Temple people, knew he wasn't someone to mess with and gave up on the idea of scamming Amina and her group.

Yin Lin laughed and said, "Later if a fight starts, test their abilities first, if you can't beat them then use your Jade Talisman."

"Alright," Wang Jixuan asked, "Is Qingyun Temple always this domineering? Just now they almost directly threatened — if I don't give in, they'll come after me!"

"Calm down, calm down."

Yin Lin said soothingly:

"As long as a power is big enough and strong enough, it has all kinds of people.

"I know the host of Qingyun Temple — a fine old monk, profound Buddhist teachings, exceptional abilities, and has several young Daoist couples, particularly favoring those with an elegant and mature appearance."

Wang Jixuan turned his head and spat out his tea.

Yin Lin laughed: "This is true, you wouldn't doubt the intelligence of Tianluo, would you?"

Master Wang gave a thumbs-up: "It feels unrelated to deep Buddhist teachings."

"Buddhist teachings, after all, are cultivation methods. The world is full of desires; why insist on pure cultivation?"

Yin Lin's ears twitched slightly.

"Tsk, that old nun went to find the treasure tree's family, looks like today there's a chance to get some seedlings, bring some Spirit Fruits back."

Wang Jixuan nodded calmly.

He considered it as a test from Yin Lin on his fighting abilities, making quiet preparations.

These treasures like the Moonlight Sword can't be used publicly, and the Drone Array and Mechanical Body Array are too sensational here, they must remain hidden.

However, against cultivators below the Mahayana Realm, Master Wang has plenty of skills and methods.

Half an hour later.

Amina and Xiao Huating had entered the Magic Treasure Shop to begin selecting treasures, while Zheng Shiduo was still at the rouge shop, under the disdainful and shocked gaze of several female cultivators, fiddling with the rouge.

Yin Lin suddenly said: "They're coming."

Several strands of Qi simultaneously locked onto Wang Jixuan.

Master Wang calmly picked up his tea.

"Oh, right," Yin Lin muttered, "I almost forgot to tell you, if things get chaotic here, we must hurry back... the principle of the Dark Sect is — wherever we are, they are too; the Loose Immortal who tried to eliminate you last time is stationed in You Bao Realm."

Wang Jixuan almost spat out his tea, forcing it down reluctantly, and glared at Yin Lin.

This guy is definitely doing it on purpose!

But, given the situation, he naturally couldn't back down.
