Chapter 3015: Meeting Again

At this very moment.

Lin Wan'er, just as An Chengxi had guessed, drove her car onto the elevated highway heading toward Qixia Temple.

Right now, what she was thinking in her heart was the same as what An Chengxi had surmised.

She felt that since that fake nun had been keeping an eye on Ye Chen, and had even acted as his guardian at critical moments, then under the current circumstances, they must also be watching Ye Chen from the shadows.

Perhaps the other party was in Jin Ling right now.

If they were indeed in Jin Ling, then every move she made must also be under their secret surveillance. If she were to suddenly go to Qixia Temple alone at this time, once they knew, they would understand that she was doing this because she wanted to meet with them.

Of course, Lin Wan'er also knew that the situation might not necessarily be as she guessed; it was also possible that all of this was just her own wishful thinking, and the other party wasn't paying any attention to her at all.

However, Lin Wan'er didn't care. In any case, there wasn't much of a cost to coming out and trying; if she gained nothing, she would just drive back.

Traffic at noon on a workday was very smooth. Lin Wan'er drove for over half an hour and arrived at the entrance of Qixia Mountain.

Although the Qixia Mountain Scenic Area was very large and had complete mountain roads, tourist vehicles had to be parked in the parking lot outside the mountain gate. Visitors then had to enter the scenic area on foot and choose to take the sightseeing bus. Therefore, Lin Wan'er drove directly into the parking lot, intending to park the car, walk into Qixia Temple to look around, fully express her intention to communicate, and wait for the other party to appear on their own.

There weren't many tourists in the scenic area at noon, and there were still many empty spots in the parking lot. So, Lin Wan'er found a spot with no cars on either side and parked the car.

Just as she had parked the vehicle and pulled the door handle to get out, the front passenger door was suddenly pulled open, and a figure immediately sat in the passenger seat.

Lin Wan'er's heart skipped a beat. She thought she had been targeted by Wu Feiyan's people. She subconsciously looked toward that person, only to be surprised to find that sitting in the passenger seat was actually an old woman wearing a brown knit cap.

The next second, she recognized the person's appearance. This person was exactly the fake nun she had seen at Qingzhao Nunnery in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains that day!

Lin Wan'er's expression showed a second of surprise, then immediately returned to normal. She closed the driver's side door again and said to the fake nun with a smile, "Hello, Nun. We finally meet again!"

Sister Sun looked at Lin Wan'er and smiled slightly, "Miss Lin must know that I am not any kind of nun, so please don't address me that way. Miss Lin is a senior; just call me Little Sun."

Lin Wan'er smiled knowingly, nodded gently, and then asked her, "You must have known that I came to Qixia Temple because I wanted to meet you, right?"

Sister Sun smiled, "Mr. Ye returned to Jin Ling today. I imagine Miss Lin must have some concerns, so I came to meet with Miss Lin. Perhaps I can answer some of the doubts in your heart."

Lin Wan'er asked her, "May I ask questions?"

"Of course." Sister Sun nodded, "What can be said, I will tell you everything; what cannot be said, I ask for Miss Lin's understanding."

Lin Wan'er nodded gently and asked her, "You know Young Master Ye has returned, and you also guessed that I would be worried about Young Master Ye. Presumably, you also know that all of this is related to the 'Nine Mysteries Scripture Preface', right?"

"That's right." Sister Sun said frankly, "The Four Directional Treasure Pagoda has returned to the country, which proves that Mr. Ye must have obtained the 'Nine Mysteries Scripture Preface'. What I can tell Miss Lin is that the 'Nine Mysteries Scripture Preface' has a hundred harms and no benefits for Mr. Ye. He must, must not practice it."

Lin Wan'er said, "I have discussed this issue with Young Master Ye, and we have already reached a consensus on this matter. Young Master Ye will not practice the contents of the 'Nine Mysteries Scripture Preface'."

"That's good." Sister Sun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Right now, as long as Mr. Ye does not go to the Ten Thousand Great Mountains and does not touch the 'Nine Mysteries Scripture Preface', he can basically avoid the crisis."

Lin Wan'er asked her, "The crisis you speak of is Meng Changsheng, right?"

"Correct." Sister Sun nodded, "It is Meng Changsheng, your grandmaster."

Lin Wan'er asked again, "Is he really not dead?"

Sister Sun thought for a moment and replied, "He is dead, but not entirely dead. Once the timing is ripe, he can be reborn."

Lin Wan'er nodded and said, "It seems he really intends to cultivate a 'Rising Dragon' physique for himself, to be used for his soul possession."

"Exactly." Sister Sun was not surprised that Lin Wan'er could see through this layer. She nodded and said, "Although Meng Changsheng luckily lived for a thousand years, that was the limit of what all his opportunities could achieve. Even if he were reborn ten times, he could not obtain a lifespan exceeding a thousand years. If he wants to reach the peak of the Dao, he must possess a 'Rising Dragon' fate, but he cannot change his own fate. So, he took a different path, intending to customize a 'Rising Dragon' physique for himself. With his thousand years of cultivation experience, if he truly had a 'Rising Dragon' physique, I'm afraid reaching the peak of the Dao would no longer be a difficult task."

Lin Wan'er asked her, "Is it true that as long as Young Master Ye does not go to the Ten Thousand Great Mountains and does not practice the mental techniques in the 'Nine Mysteries Scripture', he cannot threaten Young Master Ye?"

Sister Sun shook her head and said, "On this point, I cannot confirm it yet, but this is the best method I can think of at the moment."

Lin Wan'er nodded gently, then asked Sister Sun, "Who exactly are you? And who is behind you?"

Sister Sun smiled slightly, "I'm sorry, Miss Lin, I cannot answer that question."

Lin Wan'er asked in surprise, "Why? Instead of hiding in the shadows to help Young Master Ye, it would be better to talk to Young Master Ye face-to-face. Perhaps both sides could find a new direction to eliminate the Anti-Qing Society and Wu Feiyan as soon as possible."

Sister Sun smiled and said, "The timing is not yet ripe. When the time is ripe, we will naturally explain everything to Mr. Ye face-to-face."

As she spoke, Sister Sun added, "I also hope Miss Lin will not tell Mr. Ye about our meeting, because we can only better help Mr. Ye if we are in the shadows. Once we step into the light, not only will we be exposed, but Mr. Ye will likely be exposed as well."

After a moment of silence, Lin Wan'er tentatively asked, "Then is Butler Tang one of your people? Are you all former subordinates of Young Master Ye's parents?"

Sister Sun smiled slightly and said earnestly, "Miss Lin, I really cannot disclose these questions. You don't need to guess our identities, because once our identities are exposed, it will only bring unnecessary trouble to Mr. Ye."

As she spoke, Sister Sun added, "I also ask Miss Lin not to tell Mr. Ye about our meeting. He should be focusing his energy on how to improve his cultivation and how to deal with Wu Feiyan, not wasting it on us."

Lin Wan'er nodded gently, "Rest assured, I will not tell Young Master Ye."

For Lin Wan'er, she also didn't want Ye Chen to be too distracted; otherwise, she wouldn't have come to Qixia Temple alone behind his back.

So she asked, "If Young Master Ye cannot practice the mental techniques in the 'Nine Mysteries Scripture', then how should he improve his strength? I often hear Young Master Ye sigh, sighing that he has never had a complete set of cultivation mental techniques, making his strength improvement difficult and slow."

Sister Sun said helplessly, "Regarding this point, we don't have any good suggestions either. It can only depend on Mr. Ye's own fortune."

Speaking of this, Sister Sun sighed with some regret, "If Mr. Ye had kept the Four Directional Treasure Pagoda back then, it might have been of great help to his cultivation. The Four Directional Treasure Pagoda integrates the cultivation and wisdom of ancient sages; it is a rare top-tier magical artifact. If he could have gained some enlightenment from it, perhaps he would have had a sudden breakthrough..." ===== CHAPTER 3016 =====
