Chapter 498: Come in and sit down?
Lu Sangjiu's reasons were very good, and Lie Rufeng couldn't find any reason to refuse her, so he had no choice but to agree.
"Then be careful. If you don't find a chance to take action, don't take risks. It will be safer for the three of us to come out together."
"The two of us will always stay in this inn. If anything happens, we can use the messenger to communicate. If we need help, we can call at any time."
Lie Rufeng rarely said so much in a long-winded way. Lu Sangjiu also knew it was for her own good, so he listened patiently.
Then she said another thing, "That's it...well, I still need some magic stones to buy some commonly used elixirs and the like, but I don't have enough magic stones on me, so..."
Lie Rufeng: "..."
He was silent for a moment, but then he very generously took out half of the magic stones in his storage space and gave them to Lu Sangjiu.
Lu Sangjiu immediately said happily, "Thank you so much, fellow Taoist Lie, I will definitely pay you back when I have money!"
Although she still has a few immortal stones on her body, she still doesn’t know what it will be like when she enters the secret realm, so she must keep some as backup.
Well, I definitely don’t mean that I don’t want to pay it back!
However, Lie Rufeng didn't care much about this, "It doesn't matter. You are doing things for me, so you should bear some expenses."
Lu Sangjiu was immediately moved... What a good person. If there are a few more such generous people, she won't have to worry about money anymore!
Lu Sangjiu didn't need Li Rufeng or the others to accompany him when he went out to buy things. He just went to buy some medicines and talismans that were commonly used by demon cultivators.
In the end, she felt that it was unjustifiable that she only had Tyranny's magic weapon, so she visited a few more shops and finally selected an auxiliary magic weapon called the Soul-Binding Bell.
The main function is to make sounds that can affect people's sanity to a certain extent, and the side function is to capture the person's soul after subduing the opponent.
The side functions are a bit useless. After all, it is not an evil cultivator that wants to refine other people's souls. Under normal circumstances, there are too few situations where it is necessary to arrest people's souls.
Therefore, although this magic weapon is also of the highest quality, the price is not too high, and Lu Sangjiu can just afford it.
Lu Sangjiu spent one night at the inn for the newly acquired Demonic Essence Stone, and returned to Fan's house alone the next day.
With the token given by the head of the Fan family, there was no need to say anything. Someone took her to a guest room in the backyard to stay.
On the way, she specifically asked the person leading the way about the situation here.
"Are all the people who live in this courtyard want to enter the secret realm?"
"Yes, all monks who have passed the test or are directly invited by the master's family will live here temporarily."
"There are still a few days until the secret realm opens. If you have nothing to do, you can walk around with them more and get to know each other a little bit."
Lu Sangjiu nodded, "Can I ask how many people there are besides me?"
"There are a total of twelve people before you, but there are still more people arriving in the past few days, and there may be new ones coming in in the future."
Lu Sangjiu probably knew what he was doing, so he didn't ask further whether Ye Wucheng was here, so as not to alert the enemy.
After all, if you are here, even if you don't meet them these days, you will always meet them when you enter the secret realm. There is nothing to be anxious about.
But there was another person... Lu Sangjiu paused and asked one more question, "Fellow Taoist Yan Xue who passed the test with me that day, who knows which room he lives in?"
While they were talking, the two of them had already stopped at a door. When the person leading the way heard her asking, he couldn't help but smile and glanced at the room next to hers, "What a coincidence, she lives next door to you."
Right next door? What a coincidence.
Lu Sangjiu's eyes fell on the door next door. Just as he was about to thank this person, he saw the door suddenly opened.
Yan Xue took two steps outside, leaned against the door frame and looked at her with a smile on her face, "We meet again, Fellow Daoist Lu."
Lu Sang's wine stagnated for a moment, and then he nodded towards her, "Friend Yan."
After saying that, neither of them spoke anymore, but the Fan family member smiled wisely and said to Lu Sangjiu, "Since the guests have been brought, I will take my leave first. If you need anything, you can ask the waiters in the yard. maid."
Considering that casual cultivators generally prefer to be alone, the Fan family does not assign a maid to everyone, but only leaves a few in the yard for everyone to use.
Lu Sangjiu politely thanked him and watched him leave.
It wasn't until the man walked away that Lu Sangjiu's eyes fell back on Yan Xue.
Yan Xue smiled, turned slightly sideways and gestured to her, "Come in and sit down?"
Lu Sangjiu paused for a moment, then deliberately said something to test, "Isn't it inappropriate for Taoist friend Yan to invite a man like me into the room so casually?"
Yan Xue raised her eyebrows and smiled meaningfully, "Others may not be so good, but of course it doesn't matter to you."
After saying that, she turned around and walked into the house first, "Friend Lu, don't refuse and welcome me. Come in and talk if you have anything to say."
Lu Sangjiu: "..."
It seems that she is probably really able to see through the thousand faces of life.
Lu Sangjiu didn't hesitate any longer and followed closely into Yan Xue's room.
As soon as she entered, Yan Xue waved her sleeves and closed the door, "Sit down, I have set up an isolation formation here. People outside cannot hear or see what is happening inside or the conversation."
"Oh, that Shura from the Fan family can't do it either, so you can take it easy."
Can Yan Xue's formation block even Shura's consciousness? This made Lu Sangjiu feel a little surprised, but it didn't seem that surprising.
Yan Xue felt very mysterious to her. She was able to disguise herself as an immortal cultivator and enter the secret realm of immortal cultivators. So it is not surprising that she has such ability now.
Thinking about it, Lu Sangjiu sat down opposite her, and didn't ask much about the formation. He just said straight to the point, "If you have any questions for me, my Taoist friend, you can just tell me."
Yan Xue smiled and said, "I like people who are cheerful, so we might as well be more honest."
"This... Fellow Daoist Lu, your disguise is useless in front of me, so I know that you are Fellow Daoist Lin Qiu who met me in the secret realm not long ago."
"Of course, I also know that you are actually a nun inside."
Although Lu Sangjiu had guessed it, when he heard her say it so bluntly, he still felt a little bit embarrassed about being seen naked without any clothes on.
She coughed lightly and subconsciously tugged on her clothes, "...so?"
Yan Xue seemed to be amused by her, her eyebrows arched, "Don't be nervous, I'm not interested in women."
"The reason why I deliberately approached you was because... I felt the aura of the demon cultivator on you."
"Now that I see you as a demon cultivator, it proves that what I felt is indeed correct."
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I'm really curious...are you an immortal cultivator or a demonic cultivator? And how do you disguise it?"
