The current Peak Master Green Bamboo Peak and his future successor are currently discussing the relics of the Flower Immortal in their room.

Among them were not only the relics of the Flower Immortal, but also those of the Green Crane True Immortal, so the two chatted very happily.

Wang Yue thought his younger brother was really lucky.

A treasure like the Blood Soul Pearl would surely fetch a good price at auction.

That Altar Suppressing Wood is also a decent thunder-based Spirit Artifact.

However, the Princess inside that Jade Hairpin is a bit troublesome, and Wang Yue needs to think of a solution.

Chen Wang cleared his throat, took out a small, miniature Storage Bag, and said with a grin, "Brother Wang, I also looted the Flower Immortal's Storage Bag."

Wang Yue laughed and said, "You really don't treat me like an outsider? These days, how many masters betray their disciples? It's common for brothers to turn against each other too."

Chen Wang said, "I used to be a rogue cultivator, and I've seen all the coldness and warmth of human relationships, and the wickedness of people's hearts. How could I not know?"

"But I trust Brother Wang. Even if Brother Wang sells me, I will do it willingly."

Wang Yue was slightly taken aback, then exclaimed, "You little rascal, if I were to sell you out, you'd definitely want to kill me right away!"

"But what you said actually touched me a little."

Wang Yue, holding the Storage Bag, said, "Breaking the restrictions on this is a piece of cake."

"I'll teach you weapon crafting and formations later, then you won't have so much trouble breaking these kinds of restrictions."

As Wang Yue spoke, he flicked his fingers, and beams of light appeared, quickly breaking the restrictions on the barrier.

Unlike Chen Wang, who used his Divine Sense to cleanse the bag, he acted like a locksmith, seizing upon some flaws to easily erase the restrictions on the bag.

Chen Wang himself doesn't know how long it will take to reach that point.

He was overjoyed to see this, realizing that coming to find Old Wang was indeed the right decision.

Wang Yue was a straightforward and generous man. After glancing at the Storage Bag, he laughed and said, "This woman doesn't have much money. It's pathetic that she's acting like a bad guy!"

Chen Wang's initial joy immediately diminished.

"How can a bad guy have so little money in his Storage Bag?"

Chen Wang couldn't resist taking the Storage Bag. He examined it closely and was immediately stunned.

There were more than twenty Mid-Grade Spirit Stone and a large pile of Low-Grade Spirit Stone.

Judging from this, there are at least three to five hundred yuan, as well as some pills and Talisman Paper, but no magical Law Artifact.

With just a cursory glance, Chen Wang knew that the value of this item probably exceeded three thousand Spirit Stone.

Three thousand Spirit Stone! That's a fortune! Chen Wang couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Brother Wang, did you miss it? That pile of stones was Mid-Grade Spirit Stone!"

Wang Yue said, "Look closely, it's only worth two or three thousand Spirit Stone. If a bad person can only accumulate this little bit of wealth, what kind of evil deeds are they doing?"

"So I told her she couldn't do it."

"..." Chen Wang was stunned.

Three thousand Spirit Stone were still considered a huge failure in his eyes.

Chen Wang didn't know how to express his feelings for a moment.

But then his eyes lit up. "Brother Wang, isn't our Green Bamboo Peak quite wealthy, actually a hidden tycoon?"

Wang Yue said, "Spirit Stone are like worldly money in the Cultivation World. Cultivators should avoid them and not covet them."

Chen Wang was completely confused. "Brother Wang, what do you mean?"

Wang Yue said in a serious tone, "We at Green Bamboo Peak have no money."

Chen Wang: "..."

Chen Wang then took out the Mid-Grade Spirit Stone and was about to hand them to Wang Yue, Wang Yue still refused, saying seriously, "Don't mention money, it makes me dizzy."

He then stretched and sat down nonchalantly.

Chen Wang suggested, "How about we go to a brothel to listen to music later? Let's find a few more female cultivators this time so we can all have some fun."

Wang Yue's eyes lit up. "That's a good idea."

Chen Wang: "..."

However, Wang Yue had indeed been of great help to him, and he insisted on not accepting the gifts Wang Yue gave him.

Chen Wang thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I have a few ways to play that I can discuss with Brother Wang."

Wang Yue said disdainfully, "You've been to brothels more times in your entire life than I have in a single month. What can you teach me?"

Chen Wang was furious.

I never expected to be looked down upon.

He has extensive experience in the Winter and some experience in the Cultivation World, but he seems to be far inferior to Wang Yue.

"I don't have as much practical experience as you, but experience is a hard thing to define."

Chen Wang smiled inwardly.

After chatting for a while, Chen Wang said, "There's one more thing I'd like to hear Brother Wang's opinion on."

Wang Yue was currently examining the Jade Hairpin. He had previously sealed it with his Law Power, but the Jade Hairpin was bound to cause problems sooner or later.

But it would be a waste to just destroy it like that.

Without even looking up, he said directly, "What is it? Speak."

Chen Wang said, "I learned some of the Profound Yin Sect's plans and some of their strongholds from that female cultivator. Should we report this to the sect? If so, how should we report it?"

After pondering for a moment, Wang Yue said, "In theory, we should report this information to the sect. However, the sect is in a state of panic right now, and no one can be sure what the elders are thinking."

Chen Wang asked, "What? Is someone planning to betray us?"

Wang Yue said, "There is definitely a traitor among the many elders, perhaps one, perhaps two, no one can say for sure."

Chen Wang thought for a moment and said, "Then wouldn't we definitely lose? The Red Cloud Sect will be wiped out sooner or later?"

Wang Yue said, "Didn't you say that the other side has already sent two Golden Core Stage experts? If these two attack together, who can withstand them?"

Chen Wang remained silent.

Wang Yue said, "Actually, there are some rumors outside that people are not optimistic about the Red Cloud Sect. After all, the Old Ancestor is old and the things he does are very strange, which makes people feel dissatisfied."

"If that day really comes, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you. Don't fight the Profound Yin Sect to the death, get away as soon as possible."

He spoke with utmost seriousness.

Chen Wang said, "We'll escape together then."

He sensed that Wang Yue's words were not a test, but a genuine attempt to extricate him from the matter.

Wang Yue shook his head. "Although I am very disappointed with the sect, there are still some things I need to do. Of course, I will just do my best."

"If the sect is gone, I will travel the world. In fact, I have had this idea for a long time."

Wang Yue laughed with great ease.

However, Chen Wang could see a hint of bitterness in his smile.

The large ship is about to sink; how many people on board will be able to escape?

Wang Yue said, "Actually, if the Old Ancestor's health hadn't been so poor, I would have suggested that you join the sect directly and become an elder. The resources you would have enjoyed would have been different. Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Before the sect was destroyed, you would have received more training."

"But now it seems that your decision was right, to keep a low profile."

"Avoid becoming a target for others."

Chen Wang nodded.

He did indeed have that thought.

He had been hiding his Foundation Establishment Realm strength for this very reason.

If he hadn't been hiding his strength, and if he were also a famous young genius, the Flower Immortal would probably have used the Altar Suppressing Wood right away, and he would have been killed by her.

A wise man keeps his talents hidden until the right time to act.

Wang Yue said, "I will communicate with the sect about this matter and report the news to them. However, just like last time, I will suppress your matter. But I will fight for what I should fight for you."

Chen Wang nodded. "Thank you, Brother Wang."

Old Wang was indeed good to him, and he had no ill intentions. He was very easygoing.

What bad intentions could a man who enjoys listening to music in brothels and farming have?

Chen Wang stopped worrying about the matter and instead contacted Feng Lin.

He lit three incense sticks, placed them in a secluded spot, and muttered incantations.

After waiting for a while, a figure hurried over.

A woman with a graceful figure and an oval face was Feng Lin, who had cultivated the Joyous Union Art.

Having practiced the Joyous Union Art, her skin became more delicate, and her eyes held a seductive charm.

"The Flower Immortal is dead. You shouldn't stay here. Go find a place to escape."

Chen Wang said.

Feng Lin was taken aback. "Why? I can provide you with information over there, and I can also play a greater role by staying here."

Chen Wang shook his head. "Your master and your fellow disciples are all dead. It's hard to explain that you're the only one left here. You'll easily attract attention."

"The Red Cloud Sect and the Profound Yin Sect are entangled in a complicated and obscure situation, and it may not be possible to determine a winner in a short time. There is no need to get involved in this mess."

Feng Lin was taken aback, feeling somewhat surprised.

She was willing to follow Chen Wang because she knew this young man had a bright future. He could either become an elder of the Red Cloud Sect, go out and develop his own power, become Foundation Establishment clan leader, or start his own sect.

Therefore, she also wanted to make a good impression on him and increase her value in his mind. However, she did not expect that the young man would tell her to get out of this mess as soon as possible and not get involved in this mess.

Feng Lin was at a loss for words. "Okay, I understand."

After a moment of silence, Feng Lin spoke slowly.

Chen Wang said, "Leave now, set off immediately, and don't contact anyone to avoid causing trouble."

Feng Lin nodded. "Chen Wang, where should I go? How can I contact you in the future?"

Chen Wang shook his head and said in surprise, "Although I agreed to take you in, you are also a free person. Choose a place to cultivate properly, or get married. It's your choice, and no one will interfere."

Upon hearing this, Feng Lin was slightly startled again.

The Flower Immortal appears to be insane, but in reality, she has an extremely strong desire to control her disciples. If she leaves and is discovered by the Flower Immortal, she will definitely hunt her down to the ends of the earth.

The Cultivation World is extremely cruel; it's virtually impossible for a rogue cultivator to climb the ranks. Those like her who occasionally encounter fortuitous opportunity are the exception.

Later, he met the Flower Immortal and was taken in as Flower Immortal disciple.

In reality, if she hadn't played a certain role, she probably wouldn't have been the Flower Immortal's disciple, but rather the Flower Immortal herself, or just a ghost kept by that Green-Clad Girl.

But at this moment, Chen Wang showed an extremely broad mind and actually gave her a choice, letting her leave.

Feng Lin shook her head. "I am grateful to you for giving me this freedom of choice, but in this world, a woman who wants to survive must rely on power or a strong person."

"I choose you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Wang paused for a moment before simply nodding. "Then it's up to you."

Feng Lin bit her lip lightly and said with some grievance, "When I seduced you before, you suspected that I had ulterior motives. Now that I've turned to you, you still despise me. Am I really that repulsive?"

She mustered her courage to complain, and as she spoke, she became emotional and even choked up a little.

Chen Wang was speechless.

What kind of thought process is this? I refused to accept you, and you're still clinging to me.

To be honest, Feng Lin was extremely beautiful, and although her eyes held a hint of allure, she still appeared very dignified at first glance.

This contrast was admired by many people in Chen Wang's previous life, and Feng Lin also had the air of a widow after her husband died.

At this moment, she was dressed in a blue cloth dress, her hair was tied up and secured with a wooden hairpin, and she looked extremely graceful.

She gives off a very refreshing feeling.

If a woman like that were a teacher, she would surely attract the fantasies of countless male students; she has such an elegant demeanor.

Chen Wang said, "There is a Black Market 1,600 li to the north of here, where many people are trading. I am quite interested in that place. If you want to follow me, you can go there and help me advance."

Feng Lin's eyes lit up. "Okay."

Women can be strange sometimes. If Chen Wang is determined to control her or uses any methods to control her, she might try to find a way to escape.

However, Chen Wang's indifferent attitude and his advice to leave only strengthened Feng Lin's resolve to follow him.

Perhaps this is what happens when what you can't have always seems more alluring.

The place where the two of them met in secret was very secluded, and no one came from the surrounding area.

Feng Lin stood up, suddenly moved closer to Chen Wang Chen Wang, and hugged his arm.

She had a very voluptuous figure, and her skin, typical of cultivators, was incredibly smooth, with a subtle fragrance emanating from it.

"I am not a licentious person. Previously, when I was practicing the Joyous Union Art, I needed to Dual Cultivation with someone. I could never get over that mental hurdle, so I took a liking to you."

"It's not that I have any ulterior motives towards you, or that I want to kill you."

Chen Wang was suddenly grabbed by the arm by Feng Lin. He instinctively tried to break free, intending to slap her to death if he noticed any unusual movement.

Hearing her say that, Chen Wang was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. "I thought you were going to drain me dry back then. You know you just lost your husband, your personality changed drastically, and you were being so proactive. Anyone would think there was something wrong, right?"

Feng Lin blushed. "My relationship with him was never good to begin with. I was sad for a while after he died, but then it passed. I got some opportunities and decided to focus my mind on cultivating immortality."

Chen Wang smiled. "So you've chosen me because you've focused your mind on cultivation?"

Feng Lin blushed, biting her lip lightly, her eyes seemingly brimming with tears.

A beautiful married woman with the air of a widow gently biting her lip and staring at you—no man could resist that.

Chen Wang's lips curled into a slight smile, "You're seducing me."

Feng Lin said seductively, "Before I leave, I only ask for one night of pleasure."

This woman was indeed very charming, quite different from the other women Chen Wang had encountered. She seemed to be a woman who was originally a respectable wife, but had cultivated a special Cultivation Method that gave her a captivating and alluring aura.

The combination of these two qualities creates a fiery passion within one's heart.
