Shen Luo and the other two quickly returned to the Jinshan Temple. The Golden Cicada Dharma Assembly would be held for three consecutive days. Countless pilgrims and believers had gathered in the temple again.
There were even more people this time. The square in the temple was full. Many people had to sit on the ground outside the temple.
In order to avoid disturbing the Dharma Assembly, Shen Luo and the other two didn't fly directly into the Jinshan Temple. Instead, they landed on a hill some distance away from the Jinshan Temple.
Master Jiangliu was giving a speech on the altar. His voice spread far and wide. The three of them were still some distance away from the Jinshan Temple, but they could still hear him clearly.
"We're finally back. There's not much time left. Brother Shen, let's go in quickly," Lu Huaming said impatiently.
Shen Luo was also quite anxious. He nodded in agreement.
"What are you doing in the Jinshan Temple?" Gu Hualing asked curiously.
"Don't ask so many questions. Just follow us." Shen Luo and Gu Hualing were going to investigate the organization that destroyed the Spring and Autumn Temple. However, the incident of the Spring and Autumn Temple was still in his mind. Therefore, his tone wasn't very good.
Gu Hualing snorted. He was a bit unhappy, but he couldn't say anything.
"Many people in Chang 'an City were killed by the ghost attack not long ago. We're going to invite Master Jiangliu of the Jinshan Temple to expiate the souls. You'd better hide your demon aura. Don't let the monks in the temple sense it. It'll cause trouble," Lu Huaming explained.
"Who are you going to invite? Jiangliu? "Gu Hualing looked at the two of them with a strange look.
"Yes. You know Master Jiangliu? Well, the Black Phoenix Valley is not far from the Jinshan Mountain. Master Jiangliu is so famous. Of course, you know him. "Lu Huaming nodded slightly.
"Since we're going to work together in the future, I'll give you a suggestion. Don't invite Jiangliu," Gu Hualing suddenly said.
"Why?" Lu Huaming was startled.
"Jiangliu is very famous. I used to come here under an alias in order to find a way to cure my mother's injury. Then, I discovered a secret of Jiangliu," Gu Hualing said.
"What secret?" Shen Luo asked when he heard this.
Gu Hualing glanced at Shen Luo, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and didn't say anything.
Shen Luo frowned slightly. He had just spoken with a slightly cold tone, but this Gu Hualing actually remembered it. How petty!
He laughed in his heart and didn't ask again. He glanced at Lu Huaming and signaled him to ask.
"Fellow Daoists, since we're going to work together in the future, it's best that we don't waste time on such trivial matters. Fellow Daoist Gu, what secret did you see? Grandmaster Jiangliu's matter is extremely important to us, so please don't be stingy with your guidance. "Lu Huaming walked between the two of them, and then he cupped his hands towards Gu Hualing.
"That Jianglu is currently giving a speech. He should still be in a treasure tent. You just have to try to open the treasure tent and you will know. It's up to you whether you want to go or not. Don't blame me later, "Gu Hualing said indifferently.
After saying this, she turned around and walked to the side to sit down. She looked like she didn't want to say anything more, as if her temper hadn't subsided yet.
Shen Luo frowned when he heard this.
The Golden Phoenix Feather was already back. The matter was about to be resolved satisfactorily, but this kind of twist and turn happened again.
But Gu Hualing didn't look like she was lying. Could it be that Grandmaster Jiangliu was hiding something even deeper?
Now that he thought about it, the process of them going to the Black Phoenix Valley to get the Golden Phoenix Feather was indeed a bit strange. According to Jianglu, he had sent several groups of people to the Black Phoenix Valley before, but when they fought with the Black Phoenix Demon, the Black Phoenix Demon did not mention this matter at all.
Moreover, the Black Phoenix Demon's strength had already reached the Great Ascension Stage. Jiangliu should have known about this, but he didn't mention it at all to Shen Luo and Lu Huaming. If the Heavenly Book hadn't suddenly summoned the cultivation in the Dream Realm, the two of them would definitely have died.
Was there really something wrong with Grandmaster Jiangliu?
"Brother Shen, do you think Gu Hualing is telling the truth? Could it be that she was sad about her mother's death and deliberately made trouble?" Lu Huaming asked through voice transmission.
"It doesn't look like she's talking nonsense. Now that I think about the Black Phoenix Valley, there are indeed many suspicious things. Moreover, Grandmaster Jiangliu is involved in the Water and Land Conference, so there can't be any problems. How about this, Brother Lu and Fellow Cultivator Gu wait here for a moment, I'll go inside the temple to investigate. "Shen Luo pondered for a moment and replied through voice transmission.
"Don't worry, Brother Shen. Our relationship with the Jinshan Temple has just eased. If you make a big fuss like this and the matter isn't like what Gu Hualing said, then all our previous efforts will be in vain." Lu Huaming hurriedly transmitted his voice to stop him.
Although Shen Luo said to investigate, Lu Huaming knew that Shen Luo was going to do as Gu Hualing said and open the treasure tent. This would undoubtedly greatly anger the Jinshan Temple, especially in front of so many believers. The consequences would be difficult to deal with.
"Don't worry, Brother Lu. I'll naturally consider it thoroughly and won't delay the important matter." Shen Luo smiled and took out the fox skin talisman he got from Dan Yangzi. He stuck it on his chest and channeled his magic power into it.
A furry pink light gushed out from the talisman and quickly covered his whole body. It looked like he was wearing a layer of fox skin.
After a few breaths, all the pink light disappeared into his body. Shen Luo's clothes and appearance completely changed. He became a graceful woman in a pink dress.
"What talisman is this? It's so magical! "Lu Huaming looked at Shen Luo with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Shen Luo changed his appearance in front of him, but he still couldn't detect the slightest difference when he used his Divine Sense to investigate.
Moreover, Shen Luo's appearance had not only changed, but his aura fluctuation was also completely covered by the talisman. Now he looked completely like an ordinary person who had never cultivated.
It was easy to hide one's aura, but it was very difficult to completely hide all of it. It was very difficult even if there was a gap between the two realms.
A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Hualing's eyes when he saw this scene.
"It's just a little trick. It's not worth mentioning. You guys wait for me here. I'll go and investigate the situation of Master Jiangliu." Shen Luo was also quite surprised that the fox skin talisman's effect was so good. However, he didn't show it. He just said with a smile.
The only bad thing was that this fox skin talisman could only transform into a woman, which made him slightly embarrassed.
Lu Huaming saw that Shen Luo had such a wonderful transformation method. He also dispelled his worries and nodded.
Shen Luo immediately went to the Jinshan Temple. After pondering for a while, he took out a gray wooden box and held it in his hand. Soon, he arrived outside the temple.
The outside of the temple was also full of people. He found a narrow gap in the crowd and reluctantly walked through the gate. Then, he walked along the edge of the square and approached the high platform where Jiangliu was.
There were many masters in the Jinshan Temple. He had to get as close to the high platform as possible to ensure that he could open the treasure tent.
