Lin Jin was confused. Then, Qin Yunshang explained it to him. Clearly, Qin Yunshang already knew something. Or perhaps, Sage Mystic Moon had instructed Qin Yunshang to inform Lin Jin.
After all, Mystic Moon knew this ugly junior of hers well. She would definitely make things difficult for Lin Jin, so it wouldn't hurt to inform Lin Jin in advance.
Once Lin Jin understood the situation, he also understood Qin Yunshang and Mystic Moon's intentions.
This was making things difficult for them.
Truth be told, Lin Jin wasn't a good-tempered person who wouldn't retaliate if someone made things difficult for him. But since he was a guest and he was informed in advance, Lin Jin was prepared.
If Immortal Drifting Cloud really wanted to make things difficult for him, Lin Jin could tolerate it. Although Lin Jin was a mortal, he had to be more magnanimous than an immortal who had lived for thousands of years. Lin Jin wondered if Immortal Drifting Cloud would back down out of humiliation.
Probably. After all, according to Qin Yunshang, Immortal Drifting Cloud was currently the second-in-command of the Cloud Path Sect. His cultivation level was second only to the Mystic Moon.
Truth be told, Lin Jin didn't really care. Instead, he was more concerned about the 'storm beast lair' Qin Yunshang mentioned.
Lin Jin initially thought he was here to help the Cloud Path Sect treat an immortal beast. That was what Qin Yunshang said, but that didn't seem to be the case.
The storm beast lair didn't seem like a beast but more like the lair of an immortal beast.
If there was a problem with the lair, why would it look for him?
Could he solve it?
Lin Jin was curious and a little unsettled. But no matter what, since he was already here, he might as well go up and take a look. Still, if it was a pet beast, Lin Jin was confident he could identify it and come up with a way to save it. But if it wasn't a beast, just a building or a lair, Lin Jin was at his wit's end.
Lin Jin comforted Qin Yunshang and the two of them sped up. By the time they arrived at the Cloud Path Sect, many female immortals had come out to welcome them. Leading the way was Mystic Moon.
After a round of pleasantries, Lin Jin realized that this wasn't his first time stepping foot into an alien land. He was now quite elegant and composed, able to maintain his composure even when facing immortals.
And so, Lin Jin was led into the Cloud Path Sect. Sure enough, the sect was built on top of layers of clouds. Or rather, it was one with the surrounding clouds.
The clouds here were different from the others. They had clearly been refined with a special spell so that even if one didn't know any spells, they could still stand on them. Of course, not all clouds were like this. Lin Jin could see that there were several types of clouds in the Cloud Path Sect.
Some were the kind that could bear all kinds of objects, and even mortals could support them. Some required a certain level of cultivation or special spells. Otherwise, if one stepped on it, they would directly step on air and fall from a height of tens of thousands of feet.
At that time, he would definitely die.
This could be considered a rather powerful method to prevent thieves in the Yun Dao Sect.
This was because these clouds looked exactly the same from the outside.
However, Lin Jin wasn't afraid. Ever since he arrived at the Cloud Path Sect, his own clouds were constantly forming beneath his feet. Hence, no matter which cloud he stepped on, he wouldn't fall.
After following Mystic Moon and Qin Yunshang into the Cloud Path Sect, Lin Jin was greeted by a fragrant aroma. He was greeted by female immortals in long satin dresses. There were very few male immortals, and even if there were, they were all dressed in white and looked like pretty boys.
Gasp!
Lin Jin couldn't help but gasp at this. He mused, 'It's no wonder the Cloud Path Sect built their sect above the clouds. This place is closer to the sun because the Yin energy here is too thick.'
What's more frightening was that a few beautiful immortals walked by. They were obviously women. Lin Jin took a second glance at them, but Qin Yunshang turned around and told him that they were all male immortals.
Lin Jin gasped in fear and didn't dare to stare any longer.
This sect seemed to have some servants.
Compared to the other female immortals and effeminate male immortals, heroic female immortals like Mystic Moon and Qin Yunshang were like a mudslide.
For a moment, Lin Jin couldn't tell if the fragrance he smelled came from the female immortals or the male immortals. Fortunately, he activated his Qi Concealment Skill and felt much better.
"Mr. Lin, you're a guest from afar. We've already prepared a banquet. Mr. Lin, please …"
Before Mystic Moon could finish her sentence, Lin Jin quickly waved his hand. "There's no rush. Let's go check out that storm beast lair first. Fairy Yun Shang has explained everything to me on the way here. I think this is an important matter so let's not delay it any further."
Lin Jin really didn't want to attend the banquet because he was afraid he wouldn't be able to tell if the fairy accompanying him was a man or a woman.
In the Yun Dao Sect, anything was possible.
Or perhaps, even Mystic Moon?
At this thought, Lin Jin felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his skull.
"Alright!" Mystic Moon was touched by Lin Jin's seriousness. She now had high hopes for Lin Jin because yesterday, she received news that Xuan Dao Sect's immortal kirin beast had been cured by Lin Jin.
Not only that, the incident with the giant bear at Xuan Dao Sect couldn't be hidden from Mystic Moon either. She knew that Lin Jin had solved the problem easily.
Although she didn't witness it with her own eyes, based on these two incidents, Mystic Moon was a hundred percent sure that Lin Jin was truly capable. Coupled with her previous judgment, she became even more respectful toward Lin Jin.
Next, Mystic Moon brought Lin Jin to the Cloud Path Sect's forbidden area, the storm beast lair.
They were deep within a sea of clouds. The path here was shrouded in mist and they had to pass through many large layers of clouds. If they weren't careful, they would easily lose their way.
Furthermore, there were all sorts of terrifying restrictive spells set up everywhere. If an outsider were to barge in recklessly, they wouldn't even know how they died.
Other than Mystic Moon who led the way, there were only three other immortals from the Cloud Path Sect who accompanied Lin Jin here.
One of them was Qin Yunshang. She was Mystic Moon's direct disciple and her status in the Cloud Path Sect was equivalent to Chen Xuankong's in Xuan Dao Sect.
The other two were also extremely beautiful, but they were wearing men's robes.
These two were said to be Cloud Path Sect's most promising Hollow Immortal disciples. They were very respectful toward Lin Jin and asked him for all sorts of advice along the way. Lin Jin was a little afraid of them so whenever he answered, he would lean toward Qin Yunshang, trying his best not to look at the two immortals who were prettier than women. At the same time, he hoped that Qin Yunshang could help him out of this predicament.
Qin Yunshang obviously knew why Lin Jin was acting this way but she merely covered her mouth and giggled. Fortunately, they soon arrived at the storm beast lair.
"Mr. Lin, you have to be careful later. That Senior Piaoyun of mine has a strange temper. If she says something outrageous later, please don't blame her, Mr. Lin."
Just then, a handsome male immortal leaned over and whispered into Lin Jin's ear.
The hairs on Lin Jin's neck stood on end. This male immortal's face was at most five inches away from him. At such a close distance, Lin Jin could clearly see the male immortal's delicate features. He truly had bright eyes and vermillion lips. He was truly an outstanding beauty.
Sigh!
Lin Jin leaned to the side and said instinctively, "Thank you for the reminder, Fairy!"
Right after he said that, he realized something was wrong.
Sure enough, the male immortal blushed and smiled. "Mr. Lin, you're wrong. I'm a male immortal so you should address me as Brother."
