The Cold Mountain Pavilion was only a river away from the Tea Flower Banquet.
On the other side of the river, there were people coming and going. It was extremely lively.
Endless Spirit Qi shrouded the sky, condensing into Spirit Clouds, Spirit Mist, and Spirit Light. It was like a fairyland.
On the other side of the river, there were only a few passersby, an old Cold Mountain Pavilion, and a few withered willows. The scenery was extremely bleak.
At this moment, Lin Buzheng and the two girls were following a rugged mountain road back to County Evergreen.
The Cold Mountain Pavilion was about ten miles away from County Evergreen.
To Lin Buzheng, it was extremely short.
If he used the White Deer Movement Technique, he would only need ten minutes to arrive.
If he used the Eagle Transformation Technique, he would be able to fly in a straight line in the sky.
However, the two women who were traveling with Lin Buzheng were not martial artists, nor had they mastered any magical powers that were extremely fast. They were just ordinary people who did not have the strength to truss a chicken.
It would take at least half a day to return to County Evergreen from the Cold Mountain Pavilion.
In the remote and uninhabited wilderness, it was easy for accidents to happen.
Therefore, for the sake of the two girls' safety, Lin Buzheng had to give up on the Tea Flower Banquet and escort the two girls home.
However, Lin Buzheng came to the Tea Flower Banquet because of Fatty Lin's invitation, and not because of his interest. Therefore, even if he did not attend, Lin Buzheng would not feel regretful.
"I heard that the Tea Flower Banquet is a grand banquet that is only held once every three years in County Evergreen. There are geniuses and heroes gathered at the banquet. There are also exotic flowers and mysterious sacred items for sale. It's very lively."
"How about Brother Lin take us to the Tea Flower Banquet and watch the fun?"
Along the way, the young woman was quiet like a virgin and did not say a word.
However, the girl in green was extremely lively and insisted on going to the Tea Flower Banquet on the other side of the river.
"I'm not going."
Lin Buzheng kept a straight face.
In fact, it was not just the Tea Flower Festival. Even if the green-clothed young lady saw a sparrow or a wild flower on the streets, she would exclaim in surprise and run forward to examine it carefully, as if she had never seen it before.
Lin Buzheng had a premonition in his heart that if he were to bring the azure-clothed young girl along to participate in the tea party, then with the latter's exuberant curiosity, it would surely draw boundless trouble.
In addition, he was going to watch the tea flower party and escort the two girls back to the County Evergreen. Not only was he not going in the same direction, he was even going in the opposite direction.
Therefore, Lin Buzheng rejected the girl's request without a second thought.
"Please."
"Can you take me to the Camellia Festival? I love watching a good show!"
However, although the girl in green was rejected by Lin Buzheng, she did not give up and kept persuading him pitifully.
In the end, when he saw Lin Buzheng's incomparably resolute expression, he knew that it was impossible to persuade him, so he reluctantly gave up.
"Thank you for sending me off, little brother."
"Take care."
A few hours later, the young lady bade farewell to Lin Buzheng respectfully at a small village a few miles away from Evergreen County.
Next, Lin Buzheng only needed to send the girl in green to the County Evergreen, and his escort mission would be considered a success.
"Oh right, Brother Lin, what fist technique did you use to kill the Demonic Lord Bewitchment? Why is it so powerful?"
The girl in green was like a proud little sparrow. With her hands behind her back, she walked side by side with Lin Buzheng, her face filled with curiosity.
Although she was not as beautiful as Lin Xinyue, Chen Xiuxiu, or Chen Jiaojiao, her mischievous smile, a pair of shallow dimples, red lips, and white teeth still added to her charm.
"You're wrong."
"I didn't use a fist technique. I borrowed the power of an ancient spirit talisman to kill the Demonic Lord Bewitchment."
Lin Buzheng replied calmly.
The Demonic Lord Bewitchment's strength was extremely terrifying. He had been in the Dao realm for many years.
However, Lin Buzheng's cultivation was not even in the Spirit Dao realm. The difference in martial arts between the two of them was like heaven and earth.
No martial technique could make up for this difference.
If Lin Buzheng told the truth and used the fist intent from the ancient almighty in his body to defeat the Demonic Lord Bewitchment, it would seem like there was no problem.
However, once the news spread, Lin Buzheng would inevitably become the focus of this incident.
If a martial almighty used this as an excuse to search and spy on Lin Buzheng's body, Lin Buzheng's various secrets might be exposed to others, which would lead to his death.
Therefore, when Lin Buzheng killed the Demonic Lord Bewitchment, he had already come up with this excuse to cover up his many secrets.
"Is that so?"
"But why do I feel that what you used back then was an extremely profound fist technique?"
"Furthermore, if I remember correctly, you even shouted the name of that fist technique before you killed the Demonic Lord Bewitchment!"
The green-robed girl stared at Lin Buzheng unblinkingly with a curious glint in her eyes.
"One Chirp."
"When I used the ancient spirit talisman, I did use a fist technique called the One Chirp Fist Technique. It's quite powerful!"
Lin Buzheng lamented internally.
However, he reacted quickly and tried his best to cover up his lie.
"First Uncle Fist Technique? What a strange name for a fist technique! "
"Don't tell me there's still Second Uncle Fist Technique and Third Uncle Fist Technique?"
"Does that mean that a cultivator can't cultivate this fist technique if they don't have enough uncles?"
When the green-robed girl heard that, she counted with her fingers seriously, looking silly and adorable.
"This … Yes."
"Where's your home? Do your parents live in Evergreen County?"
Lin Buzheng was speechless and changed the topic.
"My parents passed away when I was young. My aunt was the one who brought me up all these years."
The green-robed girl's eyes darkened when she heard Lin Buzheng's words.
It turned out that when the green-clothed girl was young, her parents were killed by enemies, leaving her alone and raised by her aunt.
"I'm sorry, I was rude."
Lin Buzheng apologized to the green-robed girl immediately.
"It's alright."
The green-robed girl smiled faintly at Lin Buzheng. Although there was a tinge of sadness in her smile, she was still as cute and playful as a fawn.
"We've arrived at County Evergreen."
"I'm returning to my family to cultivate. Be careful for the rest of the journey!"
Lin Buzheng and the green-robed girl chatted along the way. Two hours later, they finally arrived at County Evergreen.
Not only were there many cultivators in County Evergreen, but there were also teams of elite cultivators guarding the city in an orderly manner.
Even ordinary people like the green-clothed girl, who had no martial arts cultivation, could live and work in peace and contentment here. They didn't have to worry about their lives or property being harmed.
Lin Buzheng stood at the entrance of Evergreen County and nodded to the green-robed girl before turning to leave, disappearing into the endless stream of people.
"Chirping Godly Fist?"
"The name of this fist technique isn't bad!"
The green-robed girl looked at the direction Lin Buzheng left in and smiled faintly. Thereafter, she walked in the opposite direction with her bare feet.
