The Heart of a Woman

Now.

The Three Dou Mi Dao is located in an ancient and simple hall.

At the head of the table, a middle-aged man was drinking tea. He had a Tai Chi symbol between his eyebrows, wore black Daoist robe, and exuded an extraordinary aura.

This person is none other than the leader of the Three Dou Mi Dao — Yellow Heaven Dao Master!

"Dongya, it is truly an honor for you that Young Master has come to visit you in person. You must repay Young Master properly."

Yellow Heaven Dao Master smiled slightly and looked at a woman on his left!

The woman wore a pale yellow dress, had a petite figure and an exquisite face. Upon hearing this, her beautiful eyes smiled even more, and she looked at a young man opposite her with a hint of fervor in her eyes.

The other party... is from the Imperial Lin family!

"I never imagined that I, Dongya, would have such a place today..."

She murmured to herself!

After the advent of the Saint Dao Era, the Three Dou Mi Dao Rice Sect in the Immortal Dao Era collapsed and became a complete vassal of the Holy Path Three Dou Mi Dao.

Even the Sect Master leader of the Three Dou Mi Dao Immortal Dao Era could only do menial tasks in the face of the Saint Dao forces.

However... she never expected that she would soar to great heights during the Saint Dao Era and maintain her status as Saintess!

"We should really thank that good-for-nothing Li Jiang for how we are where we are today..."

A smile played on her lips.

That was a long-forgotten story. During the Immortal Dao Era, she was the Saintess of the Three Dou Mi Dao, but she unexpectedly discovered that her talent was not the best.

In an unexpected turn of events, she discovered that Li Jiang, who kept a low profile in the sect, actually possessed a natural Yin-Yang Dao Seal!

This demonstrates that Li Jiang was an unparalleled genius, one in a million.

Therefore, at that time, as Saintess, she did not hesitate to use various means to set up a gentle trap to seduce Li Jiang, so that Li Jiang would willingly give her the Yin-Yang Dao Seal in his body.

After obtaining the Yin-Yang Dao Seal, she used a little trick to get the sect to banish Li Jiang and his master to the lower realm.

That idiot, he's probably already dead in the mortal realm, right? Maybe he'll still be haunted by me until the very end...

What she didn't expect was that after the Saint Dao Era arrived, the Dao Seal she obtained from Li Jiang's body became even more powerful, allowing her to stand out and become Saintess!

At the same time, even Lin Jiutian, a direct descendant of the Lin family, the imperial clan of the Celestial Master Dao, came to propose marriage!

She felt like her life was on a winning streak!

Ultimately, I will join the Lin family, an imperial clan, and become an unparalleled figure!

Thinking of this, her heart grew even more eager. She got up and walked over, gracefully serving tea to Lin Jiutian, saying:

"Young Master Jiutian, please."

Her beautiful eyes sparkled with desire.

The young man, dressed in fine clothes, smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, Miss Dongya."

He reached out and took the tea; in his palm was a naturally occurring red Daoist talisman!

He was none other than Lin Jiutian, a guest of the Three Dou Mi Dao and Dongya's fiancé!

Seeing this, Dongya's heart stirred slightly. Her slender hand gently caressed Lin Jiutian's palm as she whispered:

"This humble woman is skilled in playing the xiao (a type of vertical bamboo flute), and hopes that Young Master may play it for her tonight."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiutian laughed even louder:

"Good!"

Seeing this, Yellow Heaven Dao Master was sitting at the head of the table, was overjoyed!

The surrounding sages were also extremely pleased.

As long as they can curry favor with the Lin family, the imperial clan, what do they, the Three Dou Mi Dao, have to fear in the Immortal Realm?

"Reporting to the Dao Master, something extremely important has happened!"

Just then, a hurried voice rang out from outside!

Immediately afterwards, an old man entered the hall and said:

"Reporting to the Dao Master, great news has arrived!"

The Yellow Heaven Dao Master said impatiently:

"Can't you see I'm meeting with someone? What is it? We'll talk about it later!"

However, the old man said urgently, "Master, someone outside is looking for Miss Dongya, and he's with a Qilin..."

"... What, a Qilin?!"

Upon hearing this, the Yellow Heaven Dao Master was immediately startled!

The other saints were all accidents.

"The Qilin? It no longer exists in this world!"

"The Imperial Qilin clan has long been extinct."

"Kirin Fall Plain has been turned into a dead land. We even specially dispatched experts from our sect to be at the beck and call of the Heavenly Human Clan. How could a Qilin appear in front of our mountain gate?"

They all spoke up, expressing their disbelief!

"It is absolutely true, Dao Lord!"

The old man said:

"The newcomer's Lin Jiuzheng, and the creature he brought with him has a dragon's head, a deer's body, an ox's tail, and horse's hooves... It really is a young Qilin!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was somewhat surprised!

They simply wouldn't believe it was just a young Qilin.

However, the visitor's surname was Lin, and it differed from Lin Jiutian's by only one character?

"Young Master Jiutian, is this Lin Jiuzheng a member of your clan?"

The Yellow Heaven Dao Master asked the question with some caution!

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiutian frowned and said:

"There is no such person in my Lin family!"

"But... he brought a Qilin? Perhaps we should go out and take a look!"

Everyone nodded in agreement!

Soon, they walked out of the main hall together and went directly to the mountain gate.

As soon as they arrived at the mountain gate, they saw Lin Jiuzheng waiting for them.

On Lin Jiuzheng's shoulder sat a small, Spiritual Qi creature.

Upon seeing this little creature, everyone gasped in shock!

"My God, this... is it really a Qilin?!"

"This aura... this Dao Rhyme, is it truly a divine beast?"

"How is that possible...?"

They were all stunned.

You should know that the Qilin is extinct.

Both the Kirin Holy Emperor and the White Tiger Holy Emperor died in the Yang Calamity.

However, at this moment, just one glance was enough to give everyone a feeling.

This must be a purebred Qilin!

Only the Qilin possesses such auspicious energy and extraordinary charm!

The Yellow Heaven Dao Master contracted, and he stared intently at the little Kirin, muttering, "A divine creature born of nature, perfectly good and beautiful!"

"It really is a living Qilin... Moreover, its bloodline power is even purer than the one our clan once possessed... It is very likely a pure-blooded Qilin!"

Lin Jiutian was utterly shocked and found it unbelievable!

The Lin family once adopted a Qilin, but that Qilin only had a trace of ancestral blood in its body. Even so, it was still a supreme divine beast in the clan. In fact, because of the existence of that Qilin, many of the older generation of the Lin family were able to survive their ominous old age!

But later, that mythical beast grew old and died.

The extinction of the Qilin is a consensus in the world.

But now, a... has appeared.

If he could obtain it, the entire Lin family, the imperial clan, might be able to rebuild its glory, and he himself could soar to great heights... His eyes burned with desire.

And Dongya's beautiful eyes were filled with extreme greed!

She immediately stepped forward, looked at Lin Jiuzheng, and said with a smile:

"Young Master, you were looking for me?"

Lin Jiuzheng was displeased to see the greed in everyone's eyes, but he still looked at the woman and said:

"Are you the Saintess of Dongya?"

Dongya nodded and said:

"Indeed, I heard you were going to give me something... Is it this little Kirin?"

"You're so thoughtful, thank you so much! Come, let me see it, I love these little animals the most."

She walked straight up, confident and delighted!

She felt that Lin Jiuzheng was probably another one of her admirers, and moreover, he was going to give her something—it must be this Qilin!

However, Lin Jiuzheng took a step back and said with some doubt:

"Excuse me... are you the Saintess of Three Dou Mi Dao during the Immortal Dao Era?"

He felt that the other party's behavior was somewhat different from what his master Li Jiang, had described...

It's me.

Dongya spoke.

"Then, do you know someone named Li Jiang?"

Lin Jiuzheng spoke each word with utmost seriousness.

Upon hearing this, Dongya's expression changed slightly!

Li Jiang!

Her face immediately darkened, and she said:

"This man is nothing but a disgrace to the Three Dou Mi Dao sect. Why are you mentioning him?"

Upon hearing Lin Jiuzheng seemed to have a hint of sadness in his eyes, and said:

Do you really think he's a scoundrel?

"But he never forgot you, not even until his death..."

He took out a jade pendant.

That was a token of their love, which Li Jiang had asked him to bring back and give to Dongya before he died.

But upon seeing this, Dongya frowned, suddenly stepped forward, grabbed the jade pendant, threw it on the ground, and stomped it to pieces!

She said coldly, "That scoundrel Li Jiang, that damned simp! Unable to have Saintess, he tried to force himself on Saintess. Back in the Immortal Dao Era, he was banished to the mortal realm!"

"He dares to covet this Saintess? Does he even deserve it?"
