第两千一百七十八章 第二元神与分神驭鬼术

Snap,

In the still night sky, a crisp sound echoed. Lin Xuan clapped his hands together with force.

"Haha, I've got it! How could I have been thinking so long about such a simple problem? It's like a sudden enlightenment."

Lin Xuan’s delighted voice reached my ears; the excitement in his tone was palpable. Without further ado, he transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the Bamboo Forest Snow Mountain.

This time, he pushed himself to travel at maximum speed, more than doubling his previous pace as if he had something urgent to attend to.

Soon, the cave dwelling came into view. Lin Xuan did not disturb the Ye family’s patrolling cultivators and directly returned to the valley where he had established his cave dwelling.

Everything was as it was, with theprohibition still intact. Clearly, no one had visited during his absence.

A satisfied expression appeared on Lin Xuan's face. He didn't even bother resting before heading into the training room.

On his way out of the training room and into the main hall, a graceful young woman greeted him—Zheng Xuan.

"Salutations, Grandmaster!"

Seeing Lin Xuan, her expression brightened, though there was an odd hint in her demeanor. She bowed gracefully.

"Do not be so formal."

Lin Xuan's mood lifted as he waved his hand lightly. He swept his gaze over Zheng Xuan’s face; she had made significant progress over the months, even if she hadn't advanced to a higher cultivation stage. Her strength had clearly improved.

"Thank you for your gratitude," Lin Xuan nodded. "Indeed, without all the medicinal pills and treasures I gave you, your progress would not have been so swift."

"What about what happened during my seclusion?" he asked.

Zheng Xuan’s expression turned curious: "The Elder of the Ye family has been waiting outside the cave dwelling for a full month to see you. She hasn't left this valley at all."

Lin Xuan was surprised: "A whole month? Did she not leave?"

"No, that's not it," Zheng Xuan shook her head. "Lady Ye came to seek your audience a month ago, but you were in seclusion and said no one could disturb you. So, Lady Ye didn't come to the training room. But she seemed genuinely anxious, coming by every noon to check if you had emerged."

Zheng Xuan's words brought a thoughtful look to Lin Xuan’s face as he released his spiritual sense to feel the sky: "It is almost noon now. As expected, she has arrived."

Lin Xuan sounded surprised. He waved his sleeve, and the sound of the cave dwelling door opening echoed.

Opening the door for guests.

Surprised by her unwavering dedication over a month, Lin Xuan transformed into a streak of light and flew out. Soon, two elegant figures came into view: an attractive middle-aged man named Ye Hongxue and his granddaughter, Ye Ying.

Lin Xuan frowned.

Both saw him. Ye Hongxue was both surprised and delighted, while Ye Ying’s expression turned complex before she blushed and followed her aunt as they flew over.

"Salutations to the senior."

The two women bowed gracefully.

"Do not be so formal," Lin Xuan said. "I heard from Zheng Xuan that Lady Ye comes here every day. Is there something you wish to discuss with me?"

"Yes, Senior, it's true that you have finally emerged from your seclusion," Ye Hongxue sighed in relief.

"Very well, Lady Ye need not worry. Please come inside and we can talk."

Zheng Xuan naturally agreed as Lin Xuan led the way into the reception hall where they took their seats. Zheng Xuan served tea, then stood behind Lin Xuan. She didn’t have a seat either, standing behind her aunt.
