Chapter 241

"Wow! I love Qu Feiyan so much—those mischievous little eyes of hers, wuwuwu, I'm completely fallen for her!!"

"Bro, she's known as the female Zhuge Liang—this is way too deep for you to handle. Let me do it; I'm older, I can handle it!"

"Sigh~ I'm often out of place because I'm not lustful enough."

Almost the instant the image appeared.

Across the entire Jiuzhou land, voices of discussion erupted everywhere.

Not just the young talents of the martial world.

Even some middle-aged men revealed looks of greed and longing.

If Yue Lingshan had previously given off the vibe of a neighborly junior sister.

Then now, whether it was Yilin or Qu Feiyan.

Both had sharply plucked at their heartstrings.

Especially the two women's utterly distinct yet captivating qi.

Not to mention male cultivators.

Even countless women grew envious and disheartened.

137—Kind Yilin, Dugu Qiubai appears in Wushuang City! (Request self-subscription)

The desert.

"Preservation Pill?"

"After a year of seclusion, such a drastic change occurred?"

"The Hundred Flowers List? Hehe~"

"Looks like I don't need to hunt each one down myself!"

Watching the celestial image.

Shi Guanyin sneered twice.

Deep jealousy surfaced in her eyes.

As she spoke.

Every word dripped with boundless killing intent.

Then she swept her sleeve, vanishing instantly from her spot.

Looking at the direction she left.

It was none other than Central Plains!

Tang Dynasty, Fengxuan Pavilion.

"Again, the Preservation Pill?"

"Could it be that, on the Jiuzhou Hundred Flowers List, every person who makes the list gets the Preservation Pill as a baseline reward?"

She gazed deeply at the reward listed on the Heavenly Dao Golden List.

Wu Zetian pondered for two breaths, murmuring softly.

Her original fervor for the Preservation Pill naturally dimmed somewhat.

Clearly.

She had absolute confidence in her own beauty!

Great Ming, Hengshan Sect.

"Yilin made the list?"

"Trouble—does this mean Hengshan Sect will end up like Huashan?"

She stared at the names on the Jiuzhou Hundred Flowers List.

Abbess Dingyi's heart sank slightly.

Her expression changed drastically.

A sense of ill omen spread deep within her heart.

"Yilin greets Master."

At that moment.

Yilin walked in, her expression utterly unflinching.

She bowed respectfully.

"What is it?"

Abbess Dingyi straightened her expression and asked softly.

Although the Preservation Pill might bring disaster to Hengshan Sect.

She would never let her disciple give it up because of that.

Each person has their own destiny.

Since her disciple was fortunate enough to obtain it, it is her cultivation opportunity.

As a member of the Fomen, she would never do such a lowly thing.

"Please, Master, hand over this pill."

"So Hengshan won't suffer calamity because of it."

"I don't want to see others die over this pill."

She chanted a Buddha's name.

Yilin calmly stated her purpose.

Her tone held not the slightest reluctance.

As she spoke, she extended the porcelain vial in her hand.

"This... you don't regret it?"

Abbess Dingyi saw this.

Her expression was filled with surprise and uncertainty.

Even she felt a faint stirring of temptation.

Yet her disciple had actually resisted such temptation.

This truly surprised her.

"It is merely a decaying fleshly shell; a hundred years hence, it becomes nothing but a skull adorned with rouge."

"If this can reduce killing, disciple will not shirk the duty."

Yilin nodded her small head, her face as calm as still water.

Deep in her eyes, flickers of compassion glimmered.

"Good!"

"It is rare for you to possess such a compassionate heart."

"If that is so, then Master will handle this pill for you."

Abbess Dingyi nodded slightly.

She lavished him with praise.

She chanted a Buddhist mantra and casually took the porcelain bottle.

"Thank you, Master, for your approval."

Yilin bowed deeply, offering another salute.

Now, turning to another matter.

In Yunzhou, near the headquarters of the Tianxia Alliance, a roadside inn.

"Say, don't you think the Great Dragon Chief is overreacting?"

Li Taibai grabbed the wine flask on the table and took a wild gulp.

Upon hearing this,

Zhang Daoling and Senior Xiaoyaozi beside him first froze.

Then they turned their gazes upon him, waiting silently for more.
