bīng dòng sān chǐ fēi yī rì zhī hán ， bù lùn xiū xiān jiè hái shì shì sú ， dōu méi yǒu hòu huǐ yào yī shuō 。
冰冻三尺非一rì之寒，不论修仙界还是世俗，都没有后悔药一说。
A frozen three feet isn't the chill of one day. In both the immortal realm and the mortal world, there's no such thing as a do-over.
kě huà suī rú cǐ ， yǎn qián zhè me hǎo de jī huì tā què yě jué bú huì fàng qì 。
可话虽如此，眼前这么好的机会她却也绝不会放弃。
Yet despite this, she would never let such an opportunity pass by.
liàn dān shén shī 。
炼丹神师。
Alchemist Sage.
lín xuān zhè ge míng tóu yí dàn chuán chū ， sān jiè zhī zhōng ， bù zhī dào duō shǎo qiáng dà de shì lì ， huì xiàng qí dì chū gǎn lǎn zhī ！
林轩这个名头一旦传出，三界之中，不知道多少强大的势力，会像其递出橄榄枝！
The title of Alchemist Sage Lin Xuan would bring countless powerful forces in the Three Realms to extend olive branches his way! They would see him as a rare gem worth pursuing.
shì zhī wèi qí huò kě jū 。
视之为奇货可居。
This was no idle talk. The allure of an Alchemist Sage was undeniable; even Immortal Wrecks, Demon Kings, and True Demons would be honored to have such a presence as their guest.
zhè bìng fēi hú yán luàn yǔ ， liàn dān shén shī ， bǎi fēn zhī bǎi ， yǒu zhè yàng de xī yǐn lì ， jiù suàn sàn xiān yāo wáng ， zhēn mó shǐ zǔ ， yě huì shí fēn róng xìng de jiāng qí shì wèi zuò shàng kè 。
这并非胡言乱语，炼丹神师，百分之百，有这样的吸引力，就算散仙妖王，真魔始祖，也会十分荣幸的将其视为座上客。
After all, the skills of an Alchemist Sage were extraordinary. Being friends with someone like that would benefit them in countless ways from any angle.
bì jìng liàn dān shén shī de jì yì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， yǔ zhè yàng yī wèi cún zài jiāo hǎo ， bù lùn cóng nǎ ge jiǎo dù ， dōu shì yǒu bǎi lì ér wú yī hài de 。
毕竟炼丹神师的技艺非同小可，与这样一位存在交好，不论从哪个角度，都是有百利而无一害的。
If she didn't know, well and good. Now that she knew Lin Xuan might be an Alchemist Sage, how could she possibly miss such a chance?
ruò bù zhī dào yě jiù bà le ， rú jīn jì rán zhī xiǎo lín xuān kě néng shì liàn dān shén shī ， zhè yàng de jī yuán ， tā yòu qǐ huì cuò guò 。
若不知道也就罢了，如今既然知晓林轩可能是炼丹神师，这样的机缘，她又岂会错过。
Though there had been some enmity between them before, it hadn’t reached the point of no return. With clever maneuvering, who knew they couldn’t turn enemies into friends?
suī shuō xiān qián ， shuāng fāng yǐ yǒu xiē jiāo wù ， dàn bìng wèi dào bù gòng dài tiān de dì bù ， zhǐ yào qiǎo miào yùn zuò ， ān zhī jiù bù néng huà dí wéi yǒu ne ？
虽说先前，双方已有些交恶，但并未到不共戴天的地步，只要巧妙运作，安知就不能化敌为友呢？
It was all in one's hands.
shì zài rén wéi 。
事在人为。
Tianyin Fairy, as the sect leader and an old monster who had weathered countless storms through the ages, wouldn't have such a saying on her lips if she didn't put in some effort.
tiān yīn xiān zi zuò wèi yī pài zhī zhǔ ， dù jié hòu qī de lǎo guài wù ， zài màn cháng de xiū xiān suì yuè zhōng jīng lì de fēng yǔ shǔ bù shèng shǔ 。
天音仙子做为一派之主，渡劫后期的老怪物，在漫长的修仙岁月中经历的风雨数不胜数。
With this thought in mind, a smile spread across her face. "Friend Daoist Lin, you truly keep your word. Since you've already refined the treasure for our sect, let's settle the grudge between Sister Miao Yin."
bù zuò yī fān nǔ lì ， tā qǐ huì yǒu fàng qì yī shuō 。
不做一番努力，她岂会有放弃一说。
"Oh?"
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， tā de liǎn shàng yǐ duī mǎn le xiào róng ：“ lín dào yǒu guǒ rán yí nuò qiān jīn ， jì rán nǐ yǐ jīng wèi bì pài liàn hǎo le bǎo wù ， nà yǔ miào yīn shī mèi de ēn yuàn ， yě jiù yī bǐ gōu xiāo 。”
脑海中念头转过，她的脸上已堆满了笑容：“林道友果然一诺千金，既然你已经为敝派炼好了宝物，那与妙音师妹的恩怨，也就一笔勾销。”
The other party’s readiness to make amends left Lin Xuan somewhat taken aback.
“ ó ？”
“哦？”
As they say, those involved are often blind while outsiders have a clear view.
duì fāng de tài dù rú cǐ shuǎng kuài ， dào ràng lín xuān yǒu xiē è rán 。
对方的态度如此爽快，倒让林轩有些愕然。
After the success of the Tai Xu Marvelous Soul Pill, all the old monsters present had mistakenly believed that Lin Xuan's alchemy skills had reached an incomparable level, comparable to ancient Alchemist Sages.
sú huà shuō ， dāng jú zhě mí páng guān zhě qīng 。
俗话说，当局者迷旁观者清。
Yet, Lin Xuan himself hadn’t realized this yet. Originally, he had prepared his words to explain why he was able to successfully refine the medicine.
tài xū miào líng dān chéng gōng chū lú ， zài chǎng de lǎo guài wù ， dōu wù yǐ wéi lín xuān de liàn dān shù ， yǐ dào le chū shén rù huà de dì bù ， kān bǐ shàng gǔ zhī shí de liàn dān shén shī le 。
太虚妙灵丹成功出炉，在场的老怪物，都误以为林轩的炼丹术，已到了出神入化的地步，堪比上古之时的炼丹神师了。
But now it seemed all unnecessary. The other party’s change in attitude suggested that they had ulterior motives.
piān piān lín xuān zì jǐ ， què hái méi yǒu zhè yàng de jué wù 。
偏偏林轩自己，却还没有这样的觉悟。
Lin Xuan was indeed wise for a time but foolish at another; he hadn't figured out the reason behind this change of heart.
yuán běn tā xīn zhōng yǐ xiǎng hǎo le shuō cí ， xiǎng yào qiǎo yán lìng sè， yǐ jiě shì zì jǐ wèi hé néng gòu chéng gōng de jiāng dān yào liàn zhì chū 。
原本他心中已想好了说辞，想要巧言令sè，以解释自己为何能够成功的将丹药炼制出。
But what difference did it make?
kě xiàn zài kàn lái ， zhè yī qiè dōu shì duō yú ， duì fāng qián jù hòu gōng ， kěn dìng shì lìng yǒu mù dì 。
可现在看来，这一切都是多余，对方前倨后恭，肯定是另有目的。
The other party's current stance clearly showed their unwillingness to offend him and their desire to repair relations. Knowing this was enough.
lín xuān zhè cì ， yě suàn shì cōng míng yī shì hú tú yī shí ， lèng shì méi yǒu xiǎng qīng chǔ qí zhōng de yuán gù 。
林轩这次，也算是聪明一世糊涂一时，愣是没有想清楚其中的缘故。
However, Lin Xuan didn’t flaunt his talents. At that moment, leaving with his beloved wife from this dragon lair was the most important thing.
bù guò nà yòu yǒu shén me guān xì 。
不过那又有什么关系。
Lin Xuan’s thoughts were interrupted by a surprising turn of events. The other party indeed did not纠缠妙音的陨落，也不再觊觎自己的先天灵宝。态度与先前相比，一百八十度大转弯，巴结讨好之态溢于言表。
duì fāng cǐ shí de tài dù ， xiǎn rán shì bù xiǎng dé zuì zì jǐ ， shèn zhì xiǎng yào xiū fù bǐ cǐ jiān de guān xì 。
对方此时的态度，显然是不想得罪自己，甚至想要修复彼此间的关系。
听起来离谱，但天音宫众长老不得不这么做。毕竟刚才他们已经得罪了林轩，想要扭转关系自然只能放下身段。这是不得已之举。还好林轩本身就是渡劫中期，对他奉承几句也不算丢脸。
zhī dào zhè yì diǎn ， jiù gòu le 。
知道这一点，就够了。
天音仙子如此打算，其他太上长老又何尝不是？连一直看不顺眼的皂袍老者此时此刻也笑容满面，慈祥无比。
bù guò lín xuān bìng méi yǒu shì cái ào wù ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， dài zhe ài qī ， lí kāi zhè lóng tán hǔ xué cái shì zuì zhòng yào de 。
不过林轩并没有恃才傲物，此时此刻，带着爱妻，离开这龙潭虎穴才是最重要的。
起初，林轩有些茫然，但以他的聪明才智很快就反应过来。运气来了挡都挡不住，就连老天爷都在帮我。这个误会真是美妙至极。
lín xuān xīn zhōng rú cǐ xiǎng zhe ， rán ér jiē xià lái de yí mù ， què ràng qí dà diē yǎn jìng le 。
林轩心中如此想着，然而接下来的一幕，却让其大跌眼镜了。
在错愕之余，他自然不会多做解释，这样的误会对自己百利而无害。天音宫想要修补关系，而林轩也不是得理不饶人的修仙者。归根结底，他与天音宫并无恩怨纠葛，妙音已陨落，彼此间的仇怨也就烟消云散了。
duì fāng guǒ rán méi yǒu jiū chán miào yīn rú hé yǔn luò 。
对方果然没有纠缠妙音如何陨落。
至于天音仙子找麻烦，那是她作为一派之主的职责，渡劫级别的太上长老陨落，她总不可能不管不顾。所以两人虽然交手，但林轩对天音仙子并无恨意。双方握手言和，林轩毫无抵触，对方因误会想要与自己化敌为友则有些超出预料。
duì yú zì jǐ de xiān tiān líng bǎo ， yě bù zài yǒu rèn hé jì yú le 。
对于自己的先天灵宝，也不再有任何觊觎了。
但这对林轩来说……求之不得！
kě yǐ shuō ， tài dù yǔ xiān qián ， yǒu le yī bǎi bā shí dù de dà zhuǎn wān 。
可以说，态度与先前，有了一百八十度的大转弯。
多一个朋友比多一个敌人更有利，以他的聪明才智，这么浅显的道理又岂会不知晓。
shuō bā jié tǎo hǎo dōu bù wèi guò 。
说巴结讨好都不为过。
原本林轩不想多树强敌，至于交好这样的庞然大物天音宫更是有无尽的好处。
tīng qǐ lái lí pǔ ， dàn tiān yīn gōng zhòng zhǎng lǎo bù dé bù zhè me zuò 。
听起来离谱，但天音宫众长老不得不这么做。
于是双方一拍即合。不过这只是心里的想法，在表面上，林轩表现出了几分孤傲之意，拿足了架子，最后在对方的诚意下感动，与对方化敌为友……在这个过程中，林轩待价而沽，自然获得了许多好处。
bì jìng gāng cái ， tā men yǐ jīng dà dà dé zuì le lín xuān ， cǐ kè xiǎng yào jiāng zhè zhǒng guān xì niǔ zhuǎn ， zì rán zhǐ yǒu fàng xià shēn duàn 。
毕竟刚才，他们已经大大得罪了林轩，此刻想要将这种关系扭转，自然只有放下身段。
数日后，一道惊虹离开了天音宫总舵。那是一艘画舫，通体散发着异香，画舫是由养神木搭建而成的，在三界中放眼顶级大能，也只有鼐龙真人才有如此手笔。
zhè me zuò yě shì bù dé yǐ ， hǎo zài lín xuān běn shēn jiù shì dù jié zhōng qī 。
这么做也是不得已，好在林轩本身就是渡劫中期。
“Husband, I didn’t expect things to develop this way. You’ve become a guest elder of the Tianyin Sect,” came the playful voice of Ouyang Qinxin. Her clear and delicate face was filled with disbelief.
duì tā fèng chéng jǐ jù ， yě bù suàn tài diū liǎn 。
对他奉承几句，也不算太丢脸。
In such a dragon lair like the Tianyin Sect, simply surviving should be considered fortunate. She never dreamed that she would end up with such benefits.
tiān yīn xiān zi shì zuò rú cǐ dǎ suàn ， qí tā tài shàng zhǎng lǎo ， hé cháng bú shì rú cǐ ？
天音仙子是做如此打算，其他太上长老，何尝不是如此？
Indeed, Lin Xuan had become a guest elder of the Tianyin Sect.
biàn shì yì zhí kàn lín xuān bù shùn yǎn de zào páo lǎo zhě ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， dōu xiào róng kě jū ， xiǎn de cí xiáng yǐ jí 。
便是一直看林轩不顺眼的皂袍老者，此时此刻，都笑容可掬，显得慈祥以极。
A guest elder didn’t have the same authority as an overlord, but it came with many more perks. Most of the rights an overlord had were almost available to a guest elder, and whether or not they would help in times of trouble was up to their mood.
……
……
Such a position wasn't easily bestowed upon others, but for the sect to win Lin Xuan’s friendship, it was worth it from a long-term perspective. For Lin Xuan, this was also a boon; henceforth, the Tianyin Sect could be considered his support system. Under such a tree, one could find shade and use the tiger's might to intimidate others.
yī kāi shǐ ， lín xuān hái yǒu xiē máng rán ， dàn tā shì hé děng cōng míng de rén wù ， hěn kuài jiù fǎn yìng guò lái le 。
一开始，林轩还有些茫然，但他是何等聪明的人物，很快就反应过来了。
In short, this outcome was a win-win situation for both parties, while Lin Xuan gained many benefits in reality.
yùn qì lái le ， zhēn shì dǎng dōu dǎng bú zhù ， lián lǎo tiān yé dōu bāng wǒ 。
运气来了，真是挡都挡不住，连老天爷都帮我。
After several days of热情挽留下，林轩又在该派停留了数日，随后才与鼐龙真人百花仙子一起离开。
liàn dān shén shī ， zhè ge wù huì hái zhēn shì měi miào yǐ jí 。
炼丹神师，这个误会还真是美妙以极。
世事变幻，真是神奇。原本林轩只是想平安救出欧阳琴心，并没想到最后会发生这样的变故。
lín xuān cuò è zhī yú ， zì rán bú huì qù duō zuò jiě shì ， zhè yàng de wù huì ， duì zì jǐ yǒu bǎi lì ér wú yī hài dì 。
林轩错愕之余，自然不会去多做解释，这样的误会，对自己有百利而无一害地。
“Husband, are you truly an Alchemist Sage?” came the curious voice of Ouyang Qinxin.
tiān yīn gōng xiǎng yào yǔ zì jǐ xiū bǔ guān xì 。
天音宫想要与自己修补关系。
"Indeed."
ér lín xuān yě bú shì dé lǐ bù ráo rén de xiū xiān zhě 。
而林轩也不是得理不饶人的修仙者。
Lin Xuan answered without revealing the secret of the Blue Star Sea. He didn’t do so not because he didn't trust Qinxin but sometimes, keeping some secrets was a form of happiness. (To be continued.)
A frozen three feet isn't the chill of one day. In both the immortal realm and the mortal world, there's no such thing as a do-over.
Yet despite this, she would never let such an opportunity pass by.
Alchemist Sage.
The title of Alchemist Sage Lin Xuan would bring countless powerful forces in the Three Realms to extend olive branches his way! They would see him as a rare gem worth pursuing.
