Resuscitation, Wen Bao felt that the age of chaos was about to come.
At the same time, he confessed to Yue Xinyao and Li Nana … Senior Brother, you really won't give up until you kill me! I thought that I would be able to escape after calling for help, but in the end, Senior Brother, you kicked me to hell the moment you arrived!
Alas, next, would I be boiled by Junior Sister Yue, or braised by Li Nana? Junior Sister Yue was gentle and generous, most likely she would just break off their friendship. However, that Mansion of Light's Qian Hu looked fierce and ruthless, moreover, her cultivation level was not low. It was very likely that she would give him a big punishment, making him beg for death...
"Idiot, wake up!"
Wang Lu's voice promptly brought Wen Bao back to reality. "I have temporarily controlled the crisis, but it's far from the point where I can relax. The Psychic Jade's time limit is almost up, you must stabilize the situation. I'm rushing here at full speed, estimated to arrive in one day!"
"One day? That's too long, Senior Brother! Facing that Qian Hu, I can't even hold on for a quarter of an hour! "
"Is that so? Then I'll just come a bit later. I'll remember to bring you a wreath."
Wen Bao was suddenly speechless. "... But, in this situation, Senior Brother, are you going to officially show yourself?"
"Don't talk nonsense. If my identity is exposed, it's tantamount to wasting all my previous efforts … So, remember, even if others suspect me, you must never admit that I have any relationship with you here. I, your father, have never been to the Great Ming Country. As soon as I went down the mountain, I went to the Canglan Country for a vacation, understand!?"
"Ah, the Canglan Country!?"
"Yes, you, the son of the State Preceptor, have secretly arranged seventy-two virgins for me to enjoy … In short, I have nothing to do with the Wisdom Sect! Even if someone points a flying sword at your dick and forces you to admit it, you must not admit it! "
"Ah?"
Wen Bao was about to ask more, but Wang Lu's voice in his mind has already disappeared. The Psychic Jade also became dim and completely lost its effect.
After regaining his composure, Wen Bao found himself still sitting in the main hall of the Mansion of Light. Li Nana, Yue Xinyao, and Zhu Qin were all pondering something, no one spoke.
After a while, Li Nana was the first to break the silence. "Tomorrow at this time, we'll talk about the cooperation in detail. Please prepare the materials carefully. This isn't a small matter that can be brushed off."
With that, Lord Qian Hu turned around and returned to the back hall. He did not bring up the topic of "I like you" again. This made Wen Bao heave a sigh of relief.
Thus, there were only the three people from Lingjian School left in the hall. After a long silence, Zhu Qin sighed and wanted to speak, but unexpectedly, Yue Xinyao was one step ahead and said, "Senior Brother Zhu Qin … I want to talk to Senior Brother alone, is that okay?"
Zhu Qin felt as if there was a stone in front of his chest. It was so stuffy that he couldn't breathe.
For Yue Xinyao, this gentle and kind Junior Sister, it would be a lie to say that he didn't have any thoughts about her … There were a lot of female cultivators on Spirit Sword Mountain, and their quality was also quite high. However, only a few of them really caught his eye. Of course, it wasn't necessarily a strong thought. However, watching a girl who had a good relationship with him fall into the arms of a dead fatty was really hard to accept. It was as if he had swallowed a plate of fly sashimi.
While he was hesitating, Yue Xinyao urged again, "Senior Brother Zhu Qin, I'm very sorry …"
Zhu Qin had to reluctantly smile. "It's okay, I'll go sit in the back, you guys talk first."
When he left the main hall, this level seven Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator with an exceptionally solid body refining stage foundation actually staggered a few steps and almost fell!

"Then, it's just the two of us, Senior Brother."
Being stared at by Yue Xinyao's gentle and sweet smile, Wen Bao felt that his Primordial Spirit was about to disperse … Although Junior Sister Yue was very good to him before, she never had this kind of enchanting gentleness.
Senior Brother, you're really my good leader, my good Senior Brother! Just for this watery gaze, I'm willing to die right now!
However, the next moment, Yue Xinyao's words made Wen Bao fall from the sky. "It's Senior Brother Wang Lu, isn't it?"
"... Huh?"
"The one who spoke just now was Senior Brother Wang Lu, isn't it?"
"Haha, Junior Sister, you're really …" Wen Bao was ready to deny it at the first moment. After all, Wang Lu's warning still lingered in his ears: Remember, even if others doubt you, you must never admit that you have any relationship with me here!
However, Wen Bao had to admit that under the gaze of Junior Sister Yue, lying was easier said than done! The only thing he could do was to keep his mouth shut.
Seeing Wen Bao's silence, Yue Xinyao knew that her guess was right. She couldn't help but smile. "Senior Brother Wen, the way you spoke just now is really not like you at all."
Wen Bao was disheartened. Yes, a mere Wen Bao, even if he was awakened, how could he be a match for Senior Brother Wang Lu's finger? The other side only used their Primordial Spirit to control him to speak, yet he was able to solve the crisis that he was helpless against!
Keenly aware of Wen Bao's mood, Yue Xinyao quickly explained, "Senior Brother Wen Bao, I just want to say, that kind of aggressive speech just now is not your style. Compared to Senior Brother Wang Lu, you're more gentle and down-to-earth … This is not a shortcoming, it's just a person's characteristic. Just like in our Nine Regions, people have black hair and black eyes, but in the Western Continent, there are many people with blond hair and blue eyes. There's no difference in superiority or inferiority …"
Hearing this, Wen Bao reluctantly smiled. Being able to be gently comforted by Junior Sister Yue was already worth it!
"Just now, it was Senior Brother Wang Lu's words … That Wisdom Sect should be his doing. Heh, if it was him, then it's not strange. Senior Brother Wang Lu has always been very good at doing this kind of thing. In the Immortal Gathering, although I'm just an Outer Court Disciple, later on, Master explained to us the Peach Blossom Village and other checkpoints. It is said that only he can dig out the hidden elements of the Peach Blossom Village, he's really amazing."
Wen Bao forced a smile and nodded.
"Of course, Senior Brother Wen Bao, you're also very amazing. You can always follow Senior Brother Wang Lu's side to gain experience together with him … If it were me, I would probably soon be left behind." Yue Xinyao somewhat dejectedly shook her head. "However, in any case, since the Wisdom Sect is Senior Brother Wang Lu's doing, then you should be relieved. Probably … the rumor is wrong. I'll have to trouble you to tell Senior Brother Wang Lu that I'm willing to believe him, so there's no need to conduct a field investigation, which would only cause you trouble. In any case, nine months have passed, and I'm going back to the mountain in a few days. At worst, I'll just cultivate in the Spirit Creek Town and consolidate the harvest from the ancient tomb exploration. "
"... Ah?" Wen Bao gawked for a moment, and then immediately reacted. "Junior Sister, you can't!"
Yue Xinyao slightly widened her eyes. "Can't?"
Wen Bao inwardly panicked, knowing that he had said the wrong thing. However, if he really let Junior Sister Yue go back to the mountain, in case the situation of the Wisdom Sect was known by the Elders, especially the Disciplinary Elder … That old man would definitely not be as easy to talk to as Junior Sister Yue! What's more, no matter how Senior Brother Wang Lu would deal with the wrath of the Disciplinary Elder, he, Wen Bao, as the culprit who leaked the news, would most likely die.
So, what should I do now, what should I do …!?
Don't panic … Yes, don't panic, I'm the awakening type Wen Bao, the awakening type Wen Bao!
"Junior Sister, I think … instead of leaving so early, it's better to come to the Wisdom Sect to take a look. The development of this sect is really interesting. These past few months of experiential learning have really benefited me a lot."
Yue Xinyao still hesitated. "But, Senior Brother Wang Lu … won't he think that I'm a hindrance?"
Wen Bao hastily said, "You see, even a clumsy person like me …"
As soon as his voice fell, Wen Bao fiercely covered his mouth. His heart was filled with hatred, and he wanted to slap his own mouth: You big idiot, how could you so easily spill the beans! Wouldn't that be tantamount to admitting the existence of Senior Brother Wang Lu!
Senior Brother clearly told me that even if the other side has already suspected me, I must not admit it!
And sure enough, a trace of complacency flashed through Junior Sister Yue's eyes. "If Senior Brother Wang Lu doesn't mind, that would be great. Later on, please take care of me, Senior Brother Wen Bao! "
Wen Bao wanted to cry but had no tears: Junior Sister Yue, you're such a gentle and amiable person, how could you become bad! Scheming against a fool like me is not a skill at all!

"What should we do, Senior Brother Zhu Qin?"
While leaving the Mansion of Light with Wen Bao, Yue Xinyao worriedly asked.
"Senior Brother Zhu Qin?"
Yue Xinyao nodded and said, "I think Senior Brother Wang Lu doesn't want the matter of the Wisdom Sect to be known by the sect, right?"
"Em …"
"Oh, Senior Brother Wang Lu is very similar to his Master; he often has unexpected words and deeds, and the Sect's Elders are not used to it. Therefore … I guess he probably doesn't want the matter of the Wisdom Sect to be known by others. However, Senior Brother Zhu Qin should soon guess that Senior Brother Wang Lu and the Wisdom Sect may have some relationship, and Senior Brother Zhu Qin … is a person who cares about the sect's rules, so he may immediately write a report to the sect. That's why I want to ask, what should we do?"
Wen Bao froze for a moment; he felt a splitting headache, thinking, "Immortal Path, I'm just the head of the infrastructure department, good at moving bricks, moving bricks, and moving bricks; I can barely act like a grandson. This kind of thing that needs to use my brain is really not suitable for me!"
Yue Xinyao said with a smile, "Then, do you want to contact Senior Brother Wang Lu?"
Wen Bao helplessly buried his face between his hands. "I, I was wrong …"
—
One day later, Wang Lu arrived on time.
In the inn where Wen Bao lived, Wang Lu cordially met with his Junior Sister Yue Xinyao.
"Junior Sister, welcome to the Wisdom Sect."
Wang Lu's straightforwardness surprised Yue Xinyao. The girl was somewhat flustered. She never thought that Senior Brother Wang Lu would be so straightforward. His identity should be highly confidential, right?
"Senior Brother, I …"
"Believe me, no matter what you've heard before, when you personally experience my sect, you will find that the Wisdom Sect will not let you down."
With that, Wang Lu changed the subject. "Wen Bao?"
Wen Bao was alarmed. "Senior Brother?"
"I remember that the appointment between you and Qianhu Na is coming soon, right? Then what are you still standing here foolishly waiting for? No matter what, she's still a Mansion Leader, do you, a small department head, want to let her wait for you? "
"But …"
"Oh, rest assured, this level of negotiation can't be finished in one or two days. Today, at most, the Wisdom Sect and the Mansion of Light will probe each other's bottom line. Just pick a few things that you know about the sect and tell her. Remember to pick some beautiful words, it doesn't matter if it's a bit exaggerated. As for the intrigue, we'll talk about it later. "
Wen Bao asked, "If she asks a question that I don't understand, or if she asks about the sect's secrets, what should I do?"
"Do you still need me to teach you this? As long as you show a meaningful smile and then don't say a word, that's enough!"
"What the …"
"Okay, the fool's tutorial ends here. You go deal with Qianhu Na, Junior Sister Yue and I will go deal with Zhu Qin. Time is pressing, let's go!"
