Chapter 28: An Unexpected Encounter

  Lin Yun Dan Lian stepped lightly, smiled faintly at Tang Hao and the others, swept her gaze around, and found that except for the two seats left by those two escaping cultivators, there were no more empty seats.

  Lin Yundan's two followers, a man and a woman, also came in. The woman called out: "Shopkeeper, clear the table." Lin Yundan looked at the seat with disgust and said: "No need." After that, he walked towards Tang Huang and his companion.

  Lin Yundan asked Guo Jing, "I'm sitting here, do you mind?" The higher the cultivation of a monk, the more perfect his appearance and figure become. At this moment, Lin Yundan's features were even more delicate than when she had just left Tang Huo, her skin smoother, and her figure more slender. Guo Jing, though Lin Yundan's classmate, was momentarily stunned into silence.

  Tang Huan hastily said, "Mind! With so many empty seats you don't sit in, why are you sitting here?" Tang Huan really didn't want to face Lin Yun Dan again. She had betrayed herself and almost killed Yun Xi. Although Tang Huan still couldn't let go of her feelings for Lin Yun Dan, she felt even more resentment towards her now.

  Lin Yun Dan smiled and said, "Your girlfriend is jealous, don't worry, I won't compete with you for her, I already have someone I like?"

  Tang Hao was speechless for a moment, and helplessly looked at Guo Jing. Guo Jing sneered at Tang Hao and said in an unpleasant tone: "She's just my cousin, the kind of close relative within three generations, but even so, I wouldn't like a woman like you."

  Lin Yun Dan's face suddenly turned a bit green, but she calmed down and looked at the dishes on the table. They were just ordinary home-cooked meals from Earth. In the cultivation world, people usually ate spiritual birds and beasts. Lin Yun Dan asked, "From your words and actions, as well as the food you're eating, I suppose you are from Earth?"

  Guo Jing still didn't give Lin Yundan a good look, and said casually: "Yes, but I don't know why, some people seem to have forgotten where they came from?"

  The woman next to Lin Yundan called out, "How can you speak like that? Show some respect when speaking to Sister Lin!" Lin Yundan waved her hand and said, "You've just met me and already know my name, do you recognize me? I don't know why, but being with all of you gives me a familiar feeling."

  Guo Jing didn't dare look at Lin Yundong, afraid of being stunned again, and only said lightly: "We are still us, but you are not you anymore."

  Lin Yundan listened to Guo Jingyi and looked at him carefully, suddenly exclaiming: "You are Guo Jing!"

  Guo Jing coldly smiled and said: "Yun Dan Xian Zi actually still recognizes me, it's really embarrassing for me."

  Lin Yundan exclaimed with delight: "I didn't expect you'd also come here, why didn't you come find me?"

  Kuo Jing stood up and bowed, "Yun Dan Xian Zi is ruthless in his dealings, I'm afraid that one day he'll also betray me."

  Lin Yun Dan was taken aback and said calmly: "Do you also think I'm that kind of person?"

  Tang Hao couldn't take it anymore, and used his hand to pull Guo Jing. The chain on his hand shook back and forth, making a crisp sound. Tang Hao said: "I'm full, let's go upstairs."

  Lin Yundan's eyes stared fixedly at the chain in Tang Hao's hand, then stared at Tang Hao, making him feel a chill run down his spine.

  Kuo Ching said: "I'm fed up too, let's go upstairs."

  Lin Yun Dan saw that Guo Jing was ignoring her and went upstairs directly, only loudly shouting: "Guo Jing, this girl is not bad, you must take good care of her."

  "Rest assured, don't worry about it."

  Tang Hao turned his head and took a look at Lin Yun Dan. Suddenly, he felt that she had become extremely familiar again, with a dazed look in her eyes.

  Lin Yun Dan wanted to say something else, but looking at the two people beside her, she endured it and only said to Guo Jing: "The Xiuzhen world is not like Earth. Sometimes what you see with your own eyes and hear with your own ears may not be true. Take care! Let's go."

  The woman next to Lin Yundan said: "Not eaten yet!" Lin Yundan replied calmly: "Let's eat at the Hui Men Sect, the boss here doesn't welcome us."

  "Ah yo! Our Yun Dan Xianzi actually has times when she's not seen by people?" Before they arrived, the fragrance had already reached them, and Tang Huang and Guo Jing involuntarily stopped in their tracks.

  A slender woman walked in from the doorway, wearing a pink lightweight palace dress. Her face was as beautiful as a fresh flower, with a flying immortal hairpin on her head and the remaining hair cascading down her shoulders like a waterfall, emitting an alluring fragrance throughout her body. With her innate beauty, she seemed to be able to captivate others' minds. Although this woman's cultivation appeared to still be in the Qi Refining stage, she had a subtle aura of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

  The woman then said to her maid behind her: "You must remember that as a person, you can't be too arrogant, otherwise you will think like some people and won't be treated with courtesy."

  Kuo Jing's mouth watered, and Tang Huan hastily grabbed Kuo Jing's sleeve to wipe it clean. The two cultivators beside Lin Yun Dan respectfully said: "Greetings, Senior Sister Song." Lin Yun Dan coldly replied: "Senior Sister Song is not serving her master properly, what is she doing here? I heard that Wang Shixiong, who was about to become Senior Sister's dual cultivation partner, died suddenly. Could it be that Senior Sister has a fate of being a widow?"

  A woman with the surname Song heard Lin Yun Dan say this, her face turned purple with rage, but she didn't dare to expose herself in front of everyone, so she could only hold back her anger and said: "Master? You also called him Master? You're just a Qi Refining stage cultivator, Father only took you as a nominal disciple, how can you be so arrogant? Today I'm in a good mood, so I won't bother to argue with you."

  After finishing, she looked up at Tang Hao on the upper floor and smiled: "I appreciate your courage, you're here to participate in the Lu Feng Sect's election, right? With your cultivation, there are still many problems. Why not become my maid instead? You won't get fewer spiritual medicines and treasures than a disciple. Besides, you have a good foundation, and practicing seduction techniques is most suitable for you."

  Tang Hao knew that his current cultivation was too low, and he could only win by skipping levels. He had a glimmer of hope to enter the Lvfeng Sect. The words of this Song girl made Tang Hao somewhat impulsive, but Tang Hao was not willing to do those servant-like tasks. Besides, doing so would make it easier for him to expose his own identity.

  Tang Hao hadn't spoken yet, when Lin Yundun coldly smiled and said: "Sister Song often gives away maids as gifts, is it that she's given too many away and doesn't have any left to use?"

  Tang Hao listened, Yingying bowed: "Thank you, Song Shijie, for your kindness, but Wan'er is clumsy and afraid that if she makes a mistake, it will trouble Song Shijie."

  A woman with the surname Song glared at Lin Yun Dan and said, "Don't be too arrogant, do you think Father really values you? I'm his daughter, especially after my brother's death, he treats me as his only treasure. If it really comes down to it, Father will still stand on my side."

  Lin Yundan said coldly, "No need for Shifu to remind me, how dare I offend Song Shifu? I'm just telling the truth." After finishing speaking, Lin Yundan glanced at Tang Hao again and left Liuyun Pavilion.

  Tang Hao began to doubt his own thoughts, but how could he explain everything that had happened before? Tang Hao suddenly felt an urge to find Lin Yun Dan and ask her clearly, but he didn't dare to, because this was undoubtedly a gamble with his own life. If he won, Lin Yun Dan wouldn't dare to be with him either; if he lost, he would be exposed and certainly die.

  Lin Yun Dan left, and the two Tang Huaos who were originally used to tease Lin Yun Dan lost their usefulness towards Song surname woman. The Song surname woman also ignored them and went directly to the elegant room that had been arranged long ago.

  Tang Hao returned to his room and didn't think about what had just happened, he quickly began to cultivate. Unfortunately, with the worst spiritual root, the spiritual power he gained would have to be shared with two people, and the spiritual energy in this city was not very good either. After an hour of cultivation, Tang Hao felt that there was no progress at all.

  Tang Hao shook his head helplessly, and he didn't know how the Emperor of Huoyang had cultivated himself. Not only did he attain enlightenment and become an immortal, but he also became the top existence in the realm of cultivation.

  Tang Hao suddenly remembered the spiritual vortex in his body, which could convert objects with spiritual energy into original spiritual energy for his own cultivation. Why didn't he use this to cultivate?

  He said he would do it, so Tang Hao flipped through his storage bag. Apart from the spirit stones, there was nothing else inside. Tang Hao carefully took out a piece of low-grade spirit stone and tried to use his spiritual vortex to devour it.

  The Ling Stone slowly turned into white powder, and a very dense spiritual energy entered Tang Hao's body. Tang Hao immediately reacted and began to operate the magic formula, cultivating himself.

  This thick spiritual energy circulated through Tang Hao's body for a large cycle before dispersing from his nose. Tang Hao was overjoyed, feeling that the effect of this one cycle of cultivation was actually dozens of times more than the past cycles.
