Life and Death Illusions: Wilderness Council (Part 2)

Lu Qinghua's voice also had to follow the rules of the world of radiance, transforming into inner thoughts as it flowed in. Li Bocai knew Flower Lady, and although he arrived late, he had a thorough grasp of the events that had occurred on the Mountain-Moving Cloud Boat. Furthermore, because of Chen Longchuan and Lu Erniang's singing and bantering back and forth, he also had a certain understanding of the relevant background. "Flower Lady of the Yinan Troupe... Is this what they call a true person not showing their true face?" In truth, he was still quite interested in the so-called notion of like-minded souls, and discussing the matter further would pose no problem, but wouldn't it be even better if he could clear up all the doubts in his heart before the discussion? Thus, he smoothly threw Lu Qinghua under the bus. "You are terribly unobservant, calling her Flower Lady when she is the troupe leader of the Yinan Troupe. Now that she has manifested her Celestial Body and wields the world of radiance, naturally she must also have a dharma name... I wonder if that is so or not?" The final sentence was, of course, directed upward at the sea of clouds, at the Celestial Body standing tall there. Sure enough, the other's inner thoughts flowed, piercing straight through. "I already stated my dharma name earlier, how could Immortal Swordsman Li not know?" "Oh?" Brainy as Li Bocai always was, a mere startle brought to mind the verse spoken when the first black lotus bloomed, and he smoothly recited it aloud. "A flower blooms for a single lifetime, a flower withers for a single lifetime, the law of life and death, illusion and annihilation, exists only in the dream weaver's realm... So you are the Dream Weaver Celestial."
