Chapter 396 Difficulties
Baiyun Holy Land.
An old woman was galloping towards the Baiyun Holy Land from a distance.
Just at this moment, she saw Bai Zhi who had returned from somewhere, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Lady Saint, please save me!
She came to Baizhi in an instant and shouted anxiously.
"Are you from... the Bishui Sect?"
Bai Zhi frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.
Just as he finished speaking, two figures came rushing towards him from a distance, carrying a strong wind.
"Elder Zhang, you agreed to trade Qinglian Water with me, but why are you here just for the sake of drinking tea? Could it be that everything you said before was just a joke?"
Xu Hanyi narrowed her beautiful eyes and stared straight at the old woman, with a hint of questioning and dissatisfaction in her tone, and a faint chill seemed to emanate from her body.
However, Jiang Wanying, who was standing aside, set her eyes on Bai Zhi.
"Master Xu Feng, after all, the Bishui Sect is part of my Baiyun Holy Land. If there is anything, we can sit down and have a good talk."
Bai Zhi looked gentle, and raised her hand to gently smooth the light purple hair by her ears.
"I only want the Qinglian Water. If Elder Zhang is unwilling to trade with me, then I can only find another way."
Xu Hanyi stared at the old woman closely. As soon as he finished speaking, the air around him seemed to become a little colder.
"..."
The old woman looked embarrassed, her lips tightly pursed. After a moment of silence, she sighed helplessly and said with a bitter face:
"Master Xu Feng, it's not that I don't want to trade, it's just that the Qinglian Water is not with me."
"Elder Zhang, do you think I, Xu Hanyi, am a three-year-old child?"
Xu Hanyi sneered, a hint of displeasure flashing in her beautiful eyes.
"This……"
The old woman looked embarrassed and subconsciously looked at Bai Zhi beside her.
"Since Elder Zhang dared to say in front of Master Xu Feng that there is no such thing, then it is probably true. Master Xu Feng, should we stop looking for other water-attributed divine objects?"
Bai Zhilian took light steps, her eyes moving between Xu Hanyi and Elder Zhang, and spoke in a gentle voice.
"Since the thing isn't with you, you should know where it is, right? Don't tell me you took it."
Xu Hanyi narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke coldly.
"..."
The old woman's lips trembled slightly, but she didn't make any sound in the end. Her face was full of confusion and helplessness.
"Could it be that Elder Zhang has some difficulties?"
Bai Zhi tilted her head slightly, looked at the old woman with gentle eyes, and asked softly.
"Speaking of which, this matter can be considered a scandal for our sect."
"I originally planned to keep the Qinglian Water in my hand to recruit a disciple in the future, but a while ago, the sect leader suddenly brought back a man, saying that he was his lost family member."
"When the man heard I had the Qinglian Water, he asked the sect leader to find me. I was just an outer sect elder, so how could I refuse? So I gave it to him half-sold and half-given."
"Unexpectedly, the man turned out to be a complete idiot. He relied on the support of the Sect Master to cause trouble in a brothel called Siqinlou. As a result, one of his legs was crippled, and the Qinglian Water was also stolen."
"After the sect leader learned about this, he wanted to ask for an explanation. But when he came back, he told us, those of us who knew about this, not to reveal a single detail about the whole incident."
"After that, the sect leader went into seclusion and has not appeared since then."
The old woman sighed slightly, her face full of helplessness.
"Don't worry, Elder Zhang. We who are present here will pretend we didn't hear anything about this matter, and we won't spread a single word of it."
Bai Zhi nodded slightly, her eyes swept over everyone in turn, and then looked at Elder Zhang, and said soothingly.
"The Saint's words are enough. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."
The old woman looked at Xu Hanyi cautiously, and seeing that she had no intention of stopping her, she breathed a sigh of relief and galloped away into the distance.
"Master, I think the Condensed Water Mirror is also very useful. It doesn't necessarily require Clear Ripple Water."
Jiang Wanying knew that Xu Hanyi and Qingshu didn't get along, and she really didn't want to see Xu Hanyi go looking for Qingshu for her.
"No rush, let's go and take a look first."
Xu Hanyi shook his head slightly, and then he was about to take Jiang Wanying away.
"Master, wait a minute, I want to talk to Baizhi for a while." Jiang Wanying said hurriedly.
"How come I didn't know before that you two have such a good relationship?"
Xu Hanyi looked at Jiang Wanying meaningfully.
"Disciple..."
A trace of panic flashed in Jiang Wanying's eyes. She was about to explain, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Xu Hanyi.
"I'll wait for you over there."
After saying that, Xu Hanyi turned around and walked towards a place not far away.
"Susu."
As a breeze blew by, in an instant, the figures of Jiang Wanying and Bai Zhi were quickly swallowed up by the clouds, leaving only a hazy scene.
"Why didn't he come?"
Bai Zhi asked directly with a probing look in her eyes.
"In order to prevent someone from snatching Ah Chuan away, the master locked him up at home."
Jiang Wanying glanced at Bai Zhi with a slightly reproachful tone, emphasizing the three words "certain people" on purpose.
"Are you sure he is at Tianjian Peak now?"
Bai Zhi frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.
"Could it be that Ah Chuan is not at Tianjian Peak now?"
The expression on Jiang Wanying's face froze instantly, and then her expression became anxious.
"..."
Bai Zhi was silent for a moment, pursed her lips slightly, and then slowly said, "I just wanted to confirm with you whether he is at Tianjian Peak. I don't know why, but I suddenly can't find his location."
"Maybe it's because of the restrictions set by Master. Don't think about looking for Ah Chuan while Master and I are away. If you try to break through the restrictions, it will be enough to kill an ordinary cultivator in the early stage of the Tribulation."
Jiang Wanying narrowed her beautiful eyes, staring at Bai Zhi, with a hint of warning in her words.
"I don't have that much time."
Bai Zhi shook her head slightly, then threw a storage bag to Jiang Wanying.
"This is?"
Jiang Wanying was stunned for a moment, subconsciously reached out to take the storage bag, and looked up at Bai Zhi.
"Two Blood Yang Ginseng pills, one for you and your husband, should extend your life by at least ten years." Bai Zhi looked calm and spoke lightly.
"Have you been looking for ruins during this period?" A complicated look flashed across Jiang Wanying's face.
"Well, it's a pity that I haven't found any natural treasures to heal my Dao injuries. However, from observing Xu Hanyi's aura today, her Dao injuries should have fully recovered."
Bai Zhi nodded slightly and spoke slowly.
"You... don't have to do this..."
Jiang Wanying's eyes flickered, and after hesitating to speak, she finally spoke softly.
"Since I am my husband's wife, his affairs are naturally my affairs."
Bai Zhi looked calm and her tone was gentle, yet unquestionable.
"..."
"I should be Ah Chuan's wife. As for you, you can only be a concubine at best."
Jiang Wanying curled her lips and put away the storage bag. "Let's go. I'll try to bring Ah Chuan to see you before I go into seclusion to break through to the God Transformation stage."
Bai Zhi stood there quietly without saying a word until Jiang Wanying's figure completely disappeared. Then she slowly raised her head and looked in a distant direction.
"I miss you a little bit..."
