“Buzz!”
As soon as Du Yueyao said it, Lu Zheng believed her. There was no way around it. The light of destiny could not be faked.
“Plain Woman!?”
“What the hell!?”
Fan Yubai was dumbfounded, and Lu Zheng swore outright.
“What happened? Just now?” Liu Qingyan could not help asking.
Du Yueyao nodded, then shook her head. “Not just now. It should have started after that Xueyi Saintess tried to possess me, but it only awakened a moment ago.”
…
When Du Yueyao was captured by Zhao Wuji and handed over to Xueyi Saintess to perform the Saintess Descent Technique, Du Yueyao was terrified but not hopeless.
She believed Lu Zheng and Fan Yubai would surely come to save her, so while waiting, she also tried her utmost to save herself.
When Xueyi Saintess cast the possession spell, Du Yueyao resisted with all her strength and also performed the Prayer Technique from the “Plain Woman Divine Blessing Method”, praying and worshipping to the Plain Woman in the void.
At first, this prayer received no response, only some spiritual power feedback from the void to help her resist Xueyi Saintess’s possession.
“The Prayer Technique can only pray for spiritual power feedback, right?” Fan Yubai interjected.
Everyone shouted in unison, “Shut up!”
Fan Yubai, “…”
But what cultivation did Du Yueyao have? The spiritual power from the Prayer Technique could not fully block Xueyi Saintess’s invasion.
So, Du Yueyao’s divine soul grew weaker and weaker, but she kept performing the Prayer Technique ceaselessly, making her true spirit purer and purer.
In the end, Du Yueyao’s divine soul was completely suppressed by Xueyi Saintess, yet she was still unconsciously performing the Prayer Technique.
Finally, when Du Yueyao’s divine soul fell into slumber, the Plain Woman’s response came.
“Hiss…”
Everyone drew in a sharp breath, then listened even more intently.
The Plain Woman entered her dream and asked why Du Yueyao had called to her. Then Du Yueyao told her the whole situation, including the Yuan Saint Sect’s circumstances, exactly as they were.
“Then the Plain Woman told me that someone had come to save me, and the Saintess Descent Technique on my body had been lifted,” Du Yueyao said.
After that, the Plain Woman sensed Du Yueyao’s cultivation and said that the “Plain Woman Divine Blessing Method” she practised was incomplete. It must be because the person who preached it had limited aptitude and comprehension, leading to flaws at key points in the cultivation.
Du Yueyao said, “The Plain Woman said my aptitude is not high either, and my cultivation is too shallow, but my state of mind is decent. Although I cannot comprehend her lectures on the great dao and heavenly scriptures, she helped me perfect the “Plain Woman Divine Blessing Method”. She said that if I practise diligently in the future, I can hope for immortality.”
“Hiss…”
Everyone drew in another sharp breath and looked at Du Yueyao in shock.
In the Plain Woman’s eyes, Du Yueyao’s lack of talent was utterly normal. Probably, in the eyes of such a great figure, only peerless genius would catch their attention.
But getting a comment that her state of mind was decent, and having the “Plain Woman Divine Blessing Method” perfected for her, that was solid praise and a gift.
Indeed, to connect to the Plain Woman across the void with the Prayer Technique showed a purity of mind that was rare and precious. Clearly, the Plain Woman descended with this gift because of that.
And with the perfected “Plain Woman Divine Blessing Method” that suited Du Yueyao perfectly, as long as she worked hard, good results were guaranteed.
“Yueyao, congratulations!” Liu Qingyan said, genuinely delighted.
“Sister, thank you!” Du Yueyao’s face was shy but happy. She now had her own path and no longer felt inferior.
“Fortune! Such fortune! My Yuan Saint Sect has weakened for a millennium, and finally, the tide has turned!” Fan Yubai murmured to himself, overcome with emotion.
Liu Qingyan could not resist tweaking Du Yueyao’s delicate nose. “It seems you will surely be the leader of the Yuan Saint Sect in the future, Saintess.”
“Sister~”
…
Everyone was happy for Du Yueyao. Then Lu Zheng personally cooked again, and they had a lavish lunch together at the Du residence.
After the meal, they urged the still-weak Du Yueyao to rest well before leaving.
“Who would have thought this little sister had such fortune. It is truly rare.”
Liu Qingyan smiled and hugged Shen Ying. “So we must work hard too, and not let that little girl Yueyao catch up to us.”
“Yes!” Shen Ying nodded repeatedly, then cast a flirtatious glance at Lu Zheng. “That depends on whether Lu Lang will help us cultivate that “Yin-Yang Harmony Divine Nurturing Method”.”
“Hee hee…”
“Ha ha…”
Lu Zheng: ?_??
Liu Qingyan had boundless merit, constantly purifying her bloodline while practising the Red Pine Child’s inheritance, focusing on herself.
Shen Ying had unending incense and fire faith, cultivating her own divine soul, the Peach Blossom origin, and the old peach tree’s body as the Peach Blossom Fairy, becoming a god in her own right.
Both had deeper foundations and paths than Du Yueyao. Do not think Liu Qingyan spent all day on consultations or that Shen Ying seemed idle. In fact, their cultivation never lagged.
Though in the beginning, it was Lu Zheng who clarified their paths and gave them opportunities, their subsequent practice was all their own effort.
Now, both had surpassed the previous levels of Guang Yue and Yuan Jing. If Guang Yue tried to break them up again, Liu Qingyan could beat him senseless without Lu Zheng lifting a finger.
Not to mention…
Now that their cultivations were higher, the “Yin-Yang Harmony Divine Nurturing Method” might not boost them by a huge proportion, but daily practice was still very effective.
So…
Lu Zheng waved his hand, and the bedroom door closed.
Nothing to do today. Time to cultivate diligently.
…
Though Du Yueyao had received the Plain Woman’s transmission, her divine soul injuries were not yet healed. She still needed bed rest.
So Madam Du did not go back and continued caring for her at home. Liu Qingyan also visited daily to give Du Yueyao acupuncture and, by the way, regulate Madam Du’s health.
As a result, not only did Madam Du not grow haggard from caring for Du Yueyao, but her spirit improved, and her complexion became healthier.
Lu Zheng and Shen Ying would visit every few days to chat and offer professional guidance on Du Yueyao’s cultivation. Otherwise, they had little to do.
…
Crossing to the modern world.
Lu Zheng had stayed in the ancient world for several days and wanted to enjoy some modern entertainment, so he made some minced meat sauce and boiled a bowl of noodles to eat.
He opened his computer and clicked on the new drama of Liu Tianxian that he had not finished watching. While watching, he bantered in the group chat with Tong Muxuan, who had already held a wedding in his hometown and was now on honeymoon abroad.
Lu Zheng: [Rich man, Aegean Sea]
Tong Muxuan: [Regretting it. The scenery is nice, but the infrastructure is really average. Better to go to Qiong Province]
Zhao Wei: [Once in a lifetime, after all, it is exotic charm. Take more photos]
Tong Muxuan: [As if I need you to tell me]
Lei Zhiyun: [(Envy.jpg)]
They were chatting when the TV drama finished one episode. As he started the second, the sound of the door opening came.
Lu Zheng turned around and saw Lin Wan enter with a face full of fury.
Lu Zheng: ???
“Huh? Lu Zheng? You are here?”
Seeing Lu Zheng, Lin Wan’s face changed instantly. The fury vanished, replaced by a beaming smile.
“What is it? So much anger?” Lu Zheng asked.
“Do not mention it. I fell into a trap.”
Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow. “What happened?”
