Duan Zhengchun transmigrates to Yin Zhiping

Judging from Cui Zhifang's expression during the handover, Duan Zhengchun already knew that Zhao Zhijing must have made things difficult for him a lot while he was managing the money these days.

After all, the two were both under the same master, Zhao Zhijing, who was the senior disciple, so Cui Zhifang was in a difficult position.

However, Duan Zhengchun wanted to promote Cui Zhifang in front of Zhao Zhijing and all his disciples, so he waved his hand and said, "Since you have been in charge before, you will still be in charge of managing the money from now on. After all, this is my first time leading a team out on business, and I can't have to worry about everything, otherwise I will really be overwhelmed."

"this..."

Cui Zhifang glanced at Zhao Zhijing beside him, looking troubled.

"That's settled then. I'll have to trouble Senior Brother Cui to take some people to prepare some personal clothing later. Everyone except me will need a set. We're about to enter the Western Regions, and since we're looking for someone, it's always good to be discreet. Please change out of your Taoist robes for now."

“Your clothes are too conspicuous. No one can find out anything while you're wearing them. We need to hide our identities and whereabouts.”

"We'll set off early tomorrow morning. Everyone should get some rest. If Uncle Liu and the others really run into trouble, we could be in danger at any time once we enter the Western Regions."

Duan Zhengchun waved his hand, said no more, and before anyone could say anything, he got up and went straight upstairs.

Before he even arrived in the desolate city, his room had already been prepared. Lin Zhiyuan immediately led the way and took Duan Zhengchun directly back to his room.

Zhao Zhijing stared at the closed door on the second floor, clenching his fists and gritting his teeth.

...

The next morning, the westward-bound group changed their appearance and set off again, leaving the desolate city and officially entering the Western Regions.

Cui Zhifang was quite reliable in his work. He purchased a variety of everyday clothes and transformed the dozens of disciples accompanying him into several different factions overnight.

Duan Zhengchun then broke up the team into smaller groups, sending them deep into the Western Regions. He also instructed everyone to secretly search for Liu Chuxuan and his group wherever they went.

Duan Zhengchun only had Lin Zhiyuan with him, because there were some things he didn't want others to see. For example, he was holding the reins in one hand and a gourd of wine in the other, taking sips every now and then.

When Lin Zhiyuan saw that Duan Zhengchun was carrying a gourd of wine with him, he was quite frightened, but he didn't dare to say anything. Because now he had completely become Duan Zhengchun's follower, and he followed Duan Zhengchun's lead in everything. He was not even this obedient in front of Qiu Chuji.

The reason for all of this is simply that Duan Zhengchun's martial arts skills improved by more than one level during his time on Chaomu Cliff.

When one person admires another immensely, they will naturally be obedient and compliant.

Three days later, the westward-bound team arrived in batches at a place called Fanyin Town in the Western Regions, because disciples had already learned that Liu Chuxuan and his group had appeared in Fanyin Town.

Inside an inn, Duan Zhengchun sat in a bathtub, taking a bath. The steam from the tub enveloped him almost entirely.

Since leaving Zhongnan Mountain, he had been traveling all the way and hadn't even had time to take a proper shower; his body was almost rotten.

Lin Zhiyuan, with his sleeves rolled up, stood by the bathtub, scrubbing Duan Zhengchun's back until he was covered in sweat.

Along the way, Duan Zhengchun corrupted Lin Zhiyuan in many ways. In order to keep his transgression a secret forever, he even fed Lin Zhiyuan wine in the middle of the night instead of water, and secretly hid meat in Lin Zhiyuan's noodles.

Now, Lin Zhiyuan, like him, has made drinking and eating meat a regular part of his life.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it? I'm not available to receive guests right now."

Lin Zhiyuan wiped his sweat with his sleeve and looked up at the door. The handkerchief in his hand was covered in mud, clumps of it sticking out.

"Sir, your meal is ready."

A soft, clear voice came from outside the door.

The innkeeper was a woman from the Western Regions, a very beautiful woman.

"come in."

Before Lin Zhiyuan could speak, Duan Zhengchun, who was resting with his eyes closed, spoke up directly.

Upon hearing this, the door opened, and a woman with a Western Regions flair, carrying a tray, slowly entered the room. Seeing Duan Zhengchun sitting shirtless in the bathtub, she showed no sign of embarrassment.

But Lin Zhiyuan, standing behind Duan Zhengchun, was dumbfounded. He stared in astonishment at the back of Duan Zhengchun's head, thinking to himself, "Could Senior Brother Yin have even broken his vow of celibacy? This is really going to be the death of me..."

As the female shopkeeper gracefully entered, Duan Zhengchun couldn't help but smile gently, taking in her swaying figure as she walked.

In his eyes, a woman with a good figure is the most beautiful painting in the world, surpassing all other beautiful scenery.

"Hey buddy, where should I put the food?"

The female shopkeeper smiled slightly, gave Duan Zhengchun a slight bow, and then looked at Lin Zhiyuan, who was standing there dumbfounded, and asked him a question with a smile.

On the table next to them, there was a pile of their personal belongings and the clothes that Duan Zhengchun had just taken off, leaving no room for anything else.

Upon hearing the words, Lin Zhiyuan immediately snapped out of his daze, blushed, and hurriedly went to the table to tidy it up.

The naked man was clearly Duan Zhengchun, but he blushed even more than Duan Zhengchun. This was probably because it was the first time he had ever come down the mountain and the first time he had ever seen such a large expanse of white flesh. If he looked at it for too long, his nose might start bleeding.

How could a hot-blooded young man not see that thing? If monks and Taoists could remain unmoved by beauty, there would be no need for such strict precepts.

"The food has been served. Please enjoy your meal, young master. Do not hesitate to ask if you need anything."

The female shopkeeper gave a slight bow, smiled charmingly, and surprisingly spoke fluent Mandarin.

"Excuse my intrusion, but may I ask your name, and how old are you, shopkeeper?"

Duan Zhengchun rested his hands on the edge of the bathtub and asked with a smile.

"My name is Dilina, and I am twenty-six years old."

The female shopkeeper answered with a smile, her every move exuding charm. Her large, bright eyes were like a clear spring, making Duan Zhengchun want to plunge into them.

"What a beautiful name, just like the girl herself. Her age is just right, neither too much nor too little. If she were a fruit, she would be just about to ripen."

Duan Zhengchun nodded, unable to resist praising him.

"Thank you for your kind words, sir. If you have no further instructions, I will take my leave now."

As Dilina spoke, she bowed again, a gesture that made the two snow-capped mountains even more stunning.

"Miss, could you come and see if this fragrant soup needs to be changed?"

Duan Zhengchun pointed to the bathwater in the tub and asked with a smile.

"what?!"

Amidst Lin Zhiyuan's bewildered exclamation, Dilina Zha walked towards the bathtub without the slightest hesitation.

"Junior Brother Yin..."

Just then, a voice suddenly came from the doorway, and then Cui Zhifang walked in.

In an instant, the four people in the room were stunned almost simultaneously, especially Cui Zhifang, whose expression of surprise was exactly the same as when Lin Zhiyuan first saw Duan Zhengchun drinking.

However, Dilraba didn't know their identities or what they were wary of. She smiled and nodded at Cui Zhifang, who had suddenly barged in, and then turned to put her hand into the bathtub.

Lin Zhiyuan's mouth dropped open, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

"Miss Nazha, you're too kind. The inn is so busy, you should go ahead. There's no need to change the soup, I've already finished washing."

Duan Zhengchun clasped his hands in a fist salute and smiled as he said something to Dilina, which could be considered as pulling back from the brink and stopping Dilina from taking any further action.

"Alright then, I won't bother you any longer."

Dilina hesitated for a moment before agreeing, giving Duan Zhengchun a meaningful look, then smiled charmingly and turned to leave the guest room.

Duan Zhengchun smiled and looked at Cui Zhifang and Lin Zhiyuan, then smiled awkwardly and said, "This female manager is indeed very good at serving customers. She even came to check whether the bath water needed to be changed. She gave me a fright. Luckily, Senior Brother Cui arrived in time."

But as he spoke, he glanced at Lin Zhiyuan and noticed that Lin Zhiyuan's nose was already bleeding. He cursed Lin Zhiyuan inwardly, thinking how useless he was, unable to even handle this little bit of stimulation...
