Chapter 395: Meeting Lin Xian'er, Has Elder Song Met with Trouble?

He felt the astonishing elasticity coming from the crook of his arm.

Wang Jianqiang pressed his arm against it nonchalantly, stroked her long hair with his other palm, and smiled, "Long time no see."

Noticing Wang Jianqiang's small movements, Ye Qingxue's pretty face flushed, but she did not dodge, "Master, what is going on with that poisonous incense?"

"The poisonous incense was left behind by that woman in the green dress earlier; she intended to harm you and Lin Xian'er..."

He then recounted to Ye Qingxue all the information he had heard, as well as the process of following the woman in the green dress to this place.

"So that's how it is, that bitch Yang Liu actually colluded with others to harm us!"

"And to think that Xian Er and I treated her as our best friend!"

A look of anger appeared on Ye Qingxue's face.

Immediately following that, she realized something, "After Yang Liu left here, did she go to find Senior Sister Xian Er?"

"If Senior Sister Xian Er is caught off guard, I'm afraid she will also fall into the trap."

"Master, we must hurry to save her."

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Saving her is a must, but I snuck into Xuanqing Palace, so my identity cannot be exposed for the time being; I must be careful."

"Right now, you are the only one in the entire Xuanqing Palace who knows my identity."

"From now on, you must not reveal my identity to anyone, not even Lin Xian'er, do you hear me?"

As he spoke, a flash of Spirit Light appeared outside Wang Jianqiang's body.

He transformed back into the appearance of a hunched old man.

Lin Xian'er is different from Ye Qingxue.

Back in the Cold Pool Secret Realm, Ye Qingxue had, after all, lived in harmony with him for a period of time, establishing a foundation of trust.

This can be seen from her Good and Evil Value, which is as high as 90 points.

Otherwise, he would not have revealed his true form so easily.

As for Lin Xian'er.

She left the Cold Pool Secret Realm after being implanted with a Soul Seed by him.

All contact between the two was as enemies.

Not only was there no affection, but there was also significant hostility.

Naturally, he did not trust her.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Ye Qingxue was lost in thought, then said with a face full of determination.

"Mm, I understand."

"I will not reveal Master's identity to anyone."

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Since I revealed my identity in front of you, I naturally trust you."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Ye Qingxue's pretty face flushed, and her heart felt a wave of sweetness.

"Alright, let's go save Lin Xian'er now."

"You should know where Lin Xian'er lives, right?"

Wang Jianqiang said with a smile.

"Mm, I know."

Ye Qingxue nodded and led Wang Jianqiang outside.

Half an hour later.

Wang Jianqiang and Ye Qingxue arrived at Lin Xian'er's residence.

Ye Qingxue stepped forward and knocked on the door of Lin Xian'er's pavilion.

"Senior Sister Xian Er?"

"Senior Sister Xian Er?"

Ye Qingxue called out several times in succession, but there was no response from inside the room.

"No need to knock."

Just then, Wang Jianqiang walked up, "That Yang Liu has left, and Lin Xian'er has already fallen into the trap."

As he spoke.

He waved his palm.

A flash of five-colored Spirit Light appeared.

The Array outside the pavilion was broken silently.

The door opened.

The two walked inside.

They immediately discovered a figure in the innermost part of the hall who was in a state of unconsciousness.

That person was none other than Lin Xian'er.

At this moment, Lin Xian'er was lying on the ground, her entire being having fallen into a dazed state.

She showed no reaction to the intrusion of Wang Jianqiang and Ye Qingxue.

Her palms were waving unconsciously from time to time.

The Magic Tool clothing on her body had been put away entirely, though it was unclear when.

Seeing this scene, Ye Qingxue was startled and looked at Wang Jianqiang, "Master... she..."

"It is nothing."

Wang Jianqiang's expression was calm.

His gaze swept across the room.

In a corner, he discovered half a stick of ignited Soul-Bewitching Incense.

With a flick of his finger.

The Soul-Bewitching Incense turned into powder and vanished.

Following that, he pointed his finger through the air toward Liu Xian'er.

A wisp of Five-Colored Spiritual Power merged into her body, completely dispersing the toxic fumes of the Soul-Bewitching Incense.

The next moment.

Lin Xian'er, whose consciousness had been hazy, gradually regained her senses.

Just as she woke up, her expression was somewhat dazed.

Clearly, she had not yet realized what had happened.

Seeing Ye Qingxue beside her, a look of confusion immediately appeared on her face.

"Qing Xue, why are you here?"

She remembered that Yang Liu had come to chat with her earlier.

After Yang Liu left, she had closed the main door, preparing to return to her room to cultivate.

But...

How did Ye Qingxue get in? Why did she have no memory of it?

And also.

Why was she lying on the ground?

What had just happened?

Subconsciously, she raised her head to look around.

Immediately, she discovered a hunched figure behind Ye Qingxue.

It was an old man with wrinkled skin, gray hair, a body exuding the aura of death, and one foot already in the grave.

At this moment, the old man was scanning her body with great interest.

Who is this?

Why is he in her room?

She was stunned.

Subconsciously looking at herself, she then let out a shrill scream.

Almost instinctively, she leaped up from the ground.

A flash of Spirit Light appeared on her body.

A clean white dress was already draped over her.

With a flip of her palm, a sharp Flying Sword appeared, and she thrust it toward the old man without hesitation.

"Senior Sister Xian Er, no!"

Ye Qingxue's expression changed in alarm, and she instinctively summoned a Flying Sword.

Clang!

The two swords collided, and Lin Xian'er's attack was blocked.

"Qing Xue, move aside, let me kill this shameless old thief!"

Lin Xian'er stared fixedly at the old man behind Ye Qingxue, her beautiful eyes filled with cold killing intent.

"Senior Sister Xian Er, please calm down."

"Fu Qin is our benefactor; you cannot return kindness with enmity."

Ye Qingxue shook her head.

Father?

Lin Xian'er was startled and asked in surprise, "Didn't you say that your parents in the mortal world had already passed away?"

Ye Qingxue's expression faltered, and she said helplessly, "His surname is Fu, and his given name is Fu Qin."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but glance at Wang Jianqiang.

Wang Jianqiang immediately sensed the meaning in Ye Qingxue's gaze.

His expression looked somewhat innocent.

It wasn't as if he had chosen the name Fu Qin on purpose; it was simply the name of the old man he was using as a Disguise.

With his standards for naming, how could he possibly come up with such a trashy name?

Hearing Ye Qingxue's words, Lin Xian'er's expression also stiffened.

However, she finally calmed down a little, "You say this person is our benefactor; what is this all about?"

"Fu Qin, you tell her." Ye Qingxue looked at Wang Jianqiang.

"Sigh, alright."

Wang Jianqiang nodded.

Ye Qingxue's expression faltered; she felt as if she had been taken advantage of, but she had no evidence.

Just then, Wang Jianqiang's voice continued to ring out.

He recounted the conversation between Yang Liu and that Qi.

After hearing Wang Jianqiang's account, Lin Xian'er's expression instantly turned icy cold.

"Yang Liu!"

"It was her!"

"She actually dared to scheme against us!"

A moment later.

Her expression became a bit calmer as she looked at Ye Qingxue, "What do you think of that Qi?"

"I suspect it should be Qi Delong."

Ye Qingxue said slowly, "Many Inner Sect Disciples widely spread the rumor that Ruan Yuansheng is a descendant of the sect's higher-ups; although this cannot be confirmed, what is certain is that Ruan Yuansheng's backing is definitely not simple."

"That Qi Delong has always wanted to latch onto Ruan Yuansheng's coattails, so he surely wouldn't miss this opportunity."

"Moreover, I once heard some rumors saying that Yang Liu and Qi Delong have an intimate relationship; I didn't believe it at first, but now..."

Hearing Ye Qingxue's words, Lin Xian'er nodded, "My thoughts are much the same; it should be about right."

Ye Qingxue pondered for a moment and said, "Qi Delong and Yang Liu know full well that we have Elder Song backing us, so they shouldn't dare to go too far, yet they did exactly that, and so unscrupulously."

"I suspect..."

Speaking up to this point, Ye Qingxue's expression became grave.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xian'er's complexion also changed accordingly.

"You mean, something has happened to Elder Song?"
