Mysterious mirror hanging high

After Kan Huashi and Qi Xuan flew away, Jing Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.

Under his surveillance, he discovered that Guan Lingxiao, who had disappeared, had actually restrained his breath, secretly made a big detour, and returned, and was secretly following the two girls, not knowing what his plan was.

"This kid..." Jing Yu vaguely guessed Guan Lingxiao's thoughts, but was not quite sure, so he just continued to observe.

Kan Huashi and Qi Xuan fled for more than ten days and finally entered the Yunchuan area. At this time, the two were already close to the devil's land, so they naturally could no longer show off under the banner of the righteous path of Zhongzhou. They all changed their appearance and walked in a low voice.

One day when they passed by a market town, they wanted to go to the market to inquire about the news of housekeeper Yunchuan, but they saw five foundation-building cultivators outside the market town besieging a young female cultivator. The female cultivator was only in the middle stage of foundation-building, but there were two middle stage and three early stage foundation-building cultivators on the opposite side. She was already stretched thin and obviously could not hold on.

"How dare you rob and kill monks in broad daylight outside the market!"

Fang Xuan, who was from Zhongyue Academy, became furious upon seeing this and wanted to help the female cultivator. Her magical power flowed, and suddenly a pure and positive aura of pressure was sent towards the several Tribulation cultivators, making those Foundation Establishment cultivators unable to move. This was the signature magical power of Zhongyue Academy [Haoran Qi].

"Sir, spare your life!"

Fear filled the faces of several Tribulation Cultivators, knowing they had run into a tough opponent. Even the slightest hint of their aura was enough to render them immobile. It was practically certain that they were destined for the Golden Core Stage! Now all they could do was kowtow and beg for their lives.

Kan Huashi and Fang Xuan flew forward, looking up and down at the trembling Tribulation Cultivators lying on the ground. After all, Fang Xuan hated evil and showed a look of disgust on her face:

"How many years has the Tiannan Demonic Sect occupied the Yunchuan Region? The morals of the world have deteriorated so much that there are even Tribulation Cultivators lurking right next to the market."

"Sir, it's unfair! We didn't fight privately inside the market town. We waited until this girl left the market town before we took action... It didn't violate the rules!" A robber cultivator cried.

Another cultivator complained, "Your Excellency, you may not know that we are usually honest cultivators from the market town. It's just that this little girl is from a hostile family and is carrying an invaluable treasure. This is why we have strange thoughts. In our greed, we made a huge mistake... I hope Your Excellency will spare our lives."

Kan Huashi looked curious: "Is this really your first time robbing and killing a cultivator?"

"Absolutely true!"

"So what? We can't let you go and hurt others again..." Fang Xuan said in a deep voice.

"Spare my life..."

Several robbery cultivators kowtowed profusely. At this moment, the besieged woman spoke:

"My two masters, what these people said is true. My dispute with them is just a matter of position. They are just coveting the treasure in my hands. There is no life-and-death feud between us. It is better to let them go."

"This……"

"In that case, I'll spare your lives, but don't do such evil things again in the future." Fang Xuan said hesitantly.

Several robbery cultivators looked at each other in silence for a moment. They were all stunned for a moment, and then they bowed down and expressed their gratitude.

Jing Yu observed this scene quietly, feeling somewhat puzzled. "How could he be so utterly gentle, even though he had reached the level of a Golden Core True Person?"

"Wait." Kan Hua said, "You must swear an oath to your inner demons not to reveal our whereabouts, otherwise we will not let you go back."

After several Tribulation Cultivators swore a great oath against their inner demons, they left the place in disgrace. Only Kan Huashi, Fang Xuan and the rescued female Foundation Establishment Cultivator were left here.

"My humble daughter [Guan Ping'er], many thanks to the two masters for their help..."

The woman bowed slightly and said softly, "I am a direct descendant of [Steward Yunchuan], and have come to [Mulin Market] on business. Without you two, I'm afraid this would be very dangerous. Could you please honor me by coming to my steward's house for a chat? It would also allow our family to show its hospitality."

Kan Huashi and Fang Xuan exchanged a glance, both surprised: "What a coincidence?"

"Are you really the butler's direct descendant?"

"That's right." Guan Ping'er smiled.

"Then it's annoying."

"My steward, Yunchuan, is in Shigu Mountain, not far from Mulin Market. Please come over..."

Kan Huashi and Fang Xuan left with Guan Ping'er. Jing Yu looked at Guan Lingxiao, who was restraining his breath and following them, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly:

"This woman... is interesting."

Now he finally understood why Kan Huashi and Fang Xuan were acting so abnormally.

The woman named Guan Ping'er was not a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, but she concealed her aura!

Moreover, he even saw a new destiny in Guan Ping'er that he had never seen before—

[Falsehood confuses the mind].

Although this fate is only of the blue elite grade, it grants its possessor the ability to confuse the mind with words, making others unconsciously believe their lies. The effects are even greater when supplemented with various mystical techniques and magical powers... and it is particularly effective against cultivators whose cultivation is lower than the possessor's.

However, this fate has a fatal flaw. Once the lie is exposed, the person being cast the spell will develop a strong resistance to the owner's mind-deceiving powers, and the owner may even suffer backlash.

Kan Huashi and Fang Xuan's behavior was so abnormal just now, probably because they were cast into a spell by Guan Ping'er without knowing it, and their fate played a role, which is why they were seduce away.

Judging from their performance, Guan Ping'er's actual cultivation level is definitely higher than these two true disciples of the righteous path.

"Another fate..."

Kan Huashi and Fang Xuan followed Guan Ping'er all the way to the Guan family's land in [Shigu Mountain]. Behind them was Guan Lingxiao who followed quietly, and behind Guan Lingxiao was Jing Yu. When Jing Yu finally sneaked into the Guan family's land, Guan Ping'er had already led the two true disciples of the righteous way to the front hall for the meeting.

The housekeeper walked into the front hall carrying a wooden tray. Two cups of spiritual tea on the tray were steaming slightly.

"My two masters, this tea is a specialty of our Shigu Mountain, the [Yan Song Yun Wu Tea]. The annual production is very small, and it is quite magical. Please enjoy it, Masters."

Guan Ping'er smiled and said, "This tea tastes best when you drink it hot..."

Kan Huashi stared at the misty spiritual tea in front of her, in which several pine needle-like tea leaves were floating up and down. She imperceptibly transferred a trace of magic power into the tea, and only took a sip after confirming that it was non-toxic.

Fang Xuan on the side was very generous. She picked up the teacup and drank the spiritual tea in a few gulps.

Not long after, an old man carrying a sword in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm walked into the front hall. When Guan Ping'er saw the old man, he bowed and said:

"Ping'er pays homage to the ancestor..."

Jing Yu raised his eyebrows in the dark. He recognized this old man. He was the Golden Core Ancestor of Yunchuan’s housekeeper [Guan Qing]. Calculating his seniority, he should be Guan Zhen’s great-grandfather and Guan Lingxiao’s great-great-grandfather. He was now over 700 years old, which was considered to be the end of his life.
