Chapter 1346 Genius and Double System 47
Chapter 1346 Genius and Double System 47
Almost without hesitation, Yunxuan decided not to go.
Something just doesn't feel right.
After realizing that Lin Ya was a dangerous person, he rarely met with her alone anymore.
So he made an excuse to decline.
There was a long silence on the other end before they said it was alright, and they didn't mean to force him, which relieved him.
Regardless of Lin Ya's motives, Yun Xuan decided not to spend time alone with her anymore.
He hoped he was overthinking things and that his guess was wrong, otherwise things would be a bit scary.
After pondering for a while, a sudden commotion arose around him, drawing Yun Xuan's attention. He looked up and saw that his tenth sister had made some noise.
It turns out that Azhen had crafted a top-grade spiritual weapon, which was why the onlookers were amazed.
Seeing that longsword, Yun Xuan couldn't help but sigh, Tenth Sister's talent was truly stable and heaven-defying. With such skill in weapon crafting, even if her cultivation level had temporarily encountered some minor problems, it still wouldn't shake her position in the cultivation world.
After crafting this top-grade spiritual weapon, Azhen ended the crafting process, leaving the weapon for auction at Lianhuo Peak as before. She then bid farewell to everyone and departed.
"Is Tenth Sister going back to Sword Peak?" Yun Xuan chased after her, and seeing that everyone's attention was on that top-grade spiritual weapon, she turned her gaze back to Azhen.
Azhen could tell that Yunxuan seemed to have something to say.
"I won't go back to Sword Peak for now. I'll go to the main peak to find Senior Sister Chu. I made an appointment with her a few days ago to go down the mountain together."
"I see," Yun Xuan paused, then said, "Junior Sister Lin hasn't come looking for you, has she?"
Azhen was somewhat surprised. Recently, she had noticed that Yunxuan was no longer as inclined to get close to Lin Ya. However, at first, she thought it was because Lin Ya's condition was unstable, which made Yunxuan feel there was no need for her to approach her, so she gradually distanced herself.
This person didn't keep crowding around her; he maintained a perfect distance so as not to annoy her.
"No, not at all. How come, in just a few days, has Junior Sister Lin's problem been resolved?" A-Zhen asked.
Yun Xuan smiled and said, "No, that's not it."
He wasn't entirely sure about his suspicions about Lin Ya, and he didn't go to her place today just out of caution.
Combining what he had thought of, the more he thought about it, the more coincidental it seemed. One coincidence is one coincidence, two coincidences might also be coincidences, but what if there are three, four... or even every single one of them is a coincidence?
There was something else he couldn't understand: if her guess was true, what was Lin Ya's current situation?
For a moment, Yunxuan's thoughts were in disarray.
"Is there anything else, Third Brother? If not, I'll be going now. I just sent a message to Senior Sister Chu so she won't have to wait too long," A-Zhen said.
Yun Xuan's thoughts returned, and then he suddenly realized something: how could he have forgotten Chu Feifei again?
What's going on with Chu Feifei?
Why do almost no one in the sect remember her? Is there some kind of conspiracy involved?
Chu Feifei, Lin Ya, and Shi Mei—Yun Xuan fell into deep thought once again. Were the situations of the three of them related in any way?
He couldn't guess.
"Everything's alright now. If you're going down the mountain, be careful. The demons have been probing us repeatedly in recent years, and you could encounter danger at any time," Yun Xuan said. She then added, "No matter what you do, it's best not to act alone, especially with those you've had a grudge against. You should know that the demons have many tricks up their sleeves these days. I've heard that some demons are good at bewitching cultivators or possessing their bodies to do evil. If someone starts acting out of character, be on your guard."
Yunxuan's words seemed to indicate that she was genuinely worried about the demon invasion.
In reality, the possibility of demons gaining entry into sects by possessing cultivators is extremely low.
At the entrance of the Heavenly Pole Sect, there is a very special magical artifact. Every time a disciple enters or leaves, they are covered and inspected by this artifact. At least so far, all the demons who have tried to enter by possessing a disciple have been discovered and have failed. Yun Xuan seemed a bit off, as if he wanted to tell her something else through these words.
Perhaps there were some things he couldn't be sure of, and he couldn't say them directly. His personality and upbringing meant that he wouldn't be a straightforward person. In fact, if she weren't from the Great Xia Kingdom, and if the Great Xia Kingdom didn't need a talented person like her, Yun Xuan would never have risked saying anything more.
Of course, A-Zhou didn't care about any of that.
"Okay, Third Brother, I'll be careful."
[Host, has Yunxuan noticed something's wrong with Lin Ya? There's no proof, and he's a cautious person, so it's impossible to be sure.] 997 spoke up.
Azhen rushed to Sword Peak, while communicating with 997: "It's likely. His background means he's more thoughtful, observant, and sensitive to conspiracies than cultivators from the cultivation world. He might even have sensed danger."
When Azhen arrived at Jianfeng, she unexpectedly ran into Zhuo Changyuan.
"Your Highness." Zhuo Changyuan greeted Azhen upon seeing her.
Azhen casually asked, "Are you here to see Junior Sister Lin?"
"Yes, Junior Sister Lin said she has some things she wants to ask me for a favor," Zhuo Changyuan said.
Azhen smiled and said, "Alright, then go ahead."
Why did Lin Ya seek out Zhuo Changyuan at this time? What did she want to tell him?
A-Zhen's intuition told her that this was definitely not a good thing.
But she didn't mean to warn Zhuo Changyuan. Given Zhuo Changyuan's feelings for Lin Ya, that idiot might just sell her out.
She wasn't afraid, but that wouldn't be very fun.
After watching Zhuo Chang leave, Azhen went straight to Chu Feifei's residence.
Meanwhile, Zhuo Changyuan also hurried towards Lin Ya's residence, arriving at the door in the blink of an eye. Just as he was about to speak, he heard voices coming from inside. For some unknown reason, he stopped and even held his breath.
"So many days have passed, and the sect's experts are still clueless. I'm afraid there's no way to resolve my situation." It was Lin Ya's voice, filled with disappointment. "Waiting is agonizing. I'm not afraid of waiting for a result, but I'm afraid of waiting until my hair turns white and there's still no good news. In that case, it would be better to return to the mortal world as soon as possible and live a quiet and peaceful life."
"Senior Brother Wen, what should I do?"
Wen Nanfeng wasn't the type to comfort people: "There will be a way, Junior Sister Lin, don't worry. Even if there's no immediate solution, staying in the Heavenly Pole Sect is better than returning to the mortal world."
"I don't understand. Is there a flaw in my talent, or was I framed by the demons?" Lin Ya seemed dejected, leaving Wen Nanfeng somewhat at a loss.
He's really not good at comforting people.
Just as he was racking his brains, his expression faltered for a moment, and his eyes instantly changed.
"Junior Sister Lin, if you're so depressed, why don't you call me out to chat with you? Talking to this guy is a waste of breath."
It was Yin Yu who appeared.
Lin Ya suddenly raised her head, then quickly looked around. Realizing that there was no one else in her residence, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Senior Brother Yin Yu, don't scare people like that! Coming out suddenly like this, what if there are people around? You'll be discovered!" Lin Ya said, still shaken. "You'll be in trouble then. Even if you and Senior Brother Wen are the same person, just with different personalities, you definitely won't be as carefree as you are now. And what if someone discovers you're the one who disguised yourself as a demon to ambush Peak Master Mo last time? Then there'll be even less place for you in the Heavenly Pole Sect."
