Chapter 707

Finally.

Feng Yanrong still made her decision.

Let nature take its course!

During this time, she planned to stay until Liangshui Town, waiting for the river god of Liang Shui He to strike Xuanqing Daozhang, even though she knew that the river god of Liang Shui He was unlikely to be a match for Xuanqing Daozhang, but she still hoped for a miracle; she also knew that miracles do not happen casually, and she could not place all her hope on a miracle.

She planned to use this period to find another way, to see if she could find an opportunity to have Xuanqing Daozhang and the Wang Family Members agree that the child Wang Ping'an could join the Leshan Sect Sect Sect Sect Sect for cultivation.

Even if she ultimately fails, she will not give up, but she is also not prepared to fight to the death, because she knows that, after another failure, fighting to the death would be of no use.

She planned to continue collecting travel rewards, and when she has time, make another trip to Kumu Guan; after all, Wang Ping'an is still very young, she has plenty of time, and she does not believe that over these years she has been unable to persuade Xuanqing Daozhang and the Wang Family Members.

As long as Wang Ping'an has not yet entered another sect for cultivation, she will not give up, guiding Wang Ping'an into their Leshan Sect Sect Sect Sect Sect cultivation.

After figuring it out, Feng Yanrong felt refreshed, rose to leave, and in her peripheral vision saw Luo Lekang sprawled on the ground like a dead dog, his face full of a strange expression, and she asked in confusion:

"That doesn't seem like Kumu Daozhang's methods; that Evil Cultivator was clearly targeting that child. How could Kumu Daozhang spare a dog's life for him?"

She was unclear who Luo Lekang was, what his status or abilities were, but from the abilities Luo Lekang just displayed, they were righteous cultivation methods, not Evil Cultivator; however, judging from his actions, he was not a good person, and calling him an Evil Cultivator would not be excessive.

She was not foolish, but she knew clearly that Luo Lekang was definitely not just passing through Kumu Guan; for some reason, he encountered an attack by Xuanqing Daozhang.

She knew clearly that Luo Lekang was obviously after Wang Ping'an; a certain room in Kumu Guan was shimmering, and she had noticed that when Luo Lekang appeared outside Kumu Guan, she realized he was likely heading for Kumu Guan, thereby noticing the abnormal situation there.

When she looked closely, she found that the child Wang Ping'an was clearly affected by a special technique, resembling the spell that those malicious people like to use: Starlight Positioning.

She thought that perhaps Luo Lekang had noticed Wang Ping'an's unusual nature, used the spell Starlight Positioning on Wang Ping'an, intending to stealthily abduct Wang Ping'an while no one was around, but he did not expect Xuanqing Daozhang to discover it, and Xuanqing Daozhang, in a sudden rage, struck out.

All that she saw unfolded!

However.

What she never expected was that while Luo Lekang was severely wounded, like fish meat on a cutting board ready for slaughter, Xuanqing Daozhang clearly noticed her hidden nearby watching, and used her Jade Flute to play the Lullaby.

While subduing the still‑strong Luo Lekang, she reminded herself that, oddly, Xuanqing Daozhang had stripped all the loot from Luo Lekang without taking his life.

This was something she could not have imagined or understood, no matter what.

You should know that.

When she first met Xuanqing Daozhang—more precisely, when the controlled Paper Person met—she directly saw the Paper Person open a blood‑filled maw and devour a massive amount of souls, which led her to mistakenly think he was an Evil Cultivator.

Although.

Later contact made her certain that Xuanqing Daozhang was not an Evil Cultivator; even though his method of devouring others' souls was a bit extreme, considering Zhu Xing's deeds, his guards could be called henchmen.

Xuanqing Daozhang was not a disciple of a mortal sect, but a disciple of the Underworld Yin Moon Sect; such methods were completely normal for him. However.

Although Xuanqing Daozhang was not an Evil Cultivator, his methods showed that he was first‑rate ruthless and cruel; at this moment he merely stripped all the treasures from Luo Lekang without taking Luo Lekang's life, which was very inconsistent with Xuanqing Daozhang's usual style.

"Is it because Kumu Daozhang knows this dog thing—no, if it were merely acquaintance, with Kumu Daozhang's methods he could not have spared a dog's life!"

In Feng Yanrong's mind, countless tangled thoughts surfaced; she formed a conjecture, but before it lingered long, she denied it herself, and suddenly a flash of insight appeared, recalling that when the Paper Person controlled by Wang Ping'an approached Luo Lekang, it seemed to have used a spell on Luo Lekang, and she thought aloud:

"Could it be that Kumu Daozhang has a scheme I don't know about, or perhaps that the technique can make this malicious Evil Cultivator worse off than death, which is why his life wasn't taken immediately?"

After pondering for a long time, Feng Yanrong still couldn't figure out which situation it was, and she was too lazy to think further; after all, this matter was not important to her. What she should be concerned with now was how to persuade Xuanqing Daozhang and the Wang Family Members to agree that Wang Ping'an could go with them to the Leshan Sect Sect Sect Sect Sect for cultivation.

The rest.

Are not important!

Kumu Guan, in a bedroom.

Wang Ping'an, controlling the Paper Person, stealthily slipped into the temple; he vaguely felt a divine thought scanning the entire temple, and he knew it must be his master monitoring the whole temple to prevent intruders.

Who made his master, not long ago, severely offend Zhu Xing, and this time Zhu Xing suffered an assassination attempt, barely escaping death, perhaps seeking aid from the river god of Liang Shui He; although it wasn't his master's doing, this will certainly be blamed on his master by Zhu Xing or the river god of Liang Shui He, and no one.

This novel, you.

After all.

Zhu Xing is the illegitimate son of this river god of Liang Shui He!

Although.

This river god of Liang Shui He is not a competent son‑in‑law, nor perhaps a competent husband, nor even a competent father, but his master must not be careless; if he is careless, the disaster awaiting his master and even the Wang Family could be catastrophic.

"Moreover, just now a battle broke out outside Kumu Guan; as long as my master has a breath left, he could not possibly fail to notice the battle outside Kumu Guan!"

Wang Ping'an silently sighed, and before he could finish speaking, he suddenly realized, recalling the battle outside Kumu Guan, from beginning to end, he never saw his master appear, and he asked in confusion:

"That's not right; what's going on with my master? How could he be indifferent to the battle outside Kumu Guan?"

Suddenly.

In Wang Ping'an's mind, a flash of insight flickered and vanished; he understood that his master's absence was not due to indifference to the battle outside Kumu Guan, but because his master was worried that it was a ploy to lure the tiger from the mountain, fearing that if he left, the monsters hidden nearby would attack the Wang Family Members, which is why he stayed in Kumu Guan.

As if he didn't care at all about the battle outside Kumu Guan.

Let alone.

At this moment, his master was still caught in the backlash of a secret technique, not yet recovered; if he pursued outward and stepped into a trap, it could very likely endanger his life.
