Chapter 318 Time Accelerator

This is Wenren Shuyu.

Wenren Shuyu was wearing a black fox mask and standing beside the shop, looking at Lin Qingyue in astonishment, holding a white eagle mask in his hand.

Noticing Lin Qingyue's gaze on the white eagle mask, he hid back and said, "This is for Junior Sister Jing."

Lin Qingyue knew who the Junior Sister Jing he was talking about was. She was Jing Beisheng, the second disciple of Yuexi Peak. It was said that she had been staying in the Yuexi Peak sword field to practice sword after returning from the Shuiyue Jinghua secret realm. The inner disciples of Yuexi Peak no longer dared to go to the Yuexi Peak sword field, but went to the outer disciples' sword field.

Lin Qingyue smiled and said, "Senior Sister Jing is still in seclusion?"

Wenren Shuyu breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he felt another surge of anger rising up: "I thought you would ask if it was for you."

Lin Qingyue looked at him doubtfully, picked up the snake head mask from the stall and put it on his face, and paid the merchant by the way.

"I don't like White Eagle, I like this."

The light flashed in Lin Qingyue's eyes. Amidst the intricate lines, Wenren Shuyu looked at his own reflection in Lin Qingyue's eyes and smiled bitterly: "Actually, that was what I was going to give you."

He had already prepared gifts for Bei Sheng and Nian Chun, but he couldn't decide what to give to Lin Qingyue.

"Is that so?" Lin Qingyue held out his hand: "Then you don't have to buy it for me, just treat me to a meal."

Wenren Shuyu sighed: "You want this? That's right..."

"No way? Even a meal isn't an option?" Lin Qingyue looked at Wenren Shuyu, who was shocked. "Forget it, I'll treat you to a meal."

"I'm busy."

"Ah? Okay then." Lin Qingyue nodded and prepared to leave.

They all said they were busy, so there was no point in asking again.

"Hey wait."

Lin Qingyue turned around and looked at Wenren Shuyu, who was wearing her snake head mask, and her eyes were as cold as a snake's.

Wenren Shuyu held the mask in his hand and couldn't help but retreat inwardly.

"Nothing." Wenren Shuyu: "I just want to ask if you will attend the Qianshan Forum this time."

Lin Qingyue had heard of the Thousand Mountains Forum, but wasn't it said to be a testing ground for the masters? Could she, a mere soldier at the fourth level of the Sword Dao, survive the first round?

Wenren Shuyu continued, "The next Thousand Mountains Forum will be held at the Tianyin Dojo. Anyone who is a direct disciple of the Dao can attend. If you are not a direct disciple, you can also attend as a casual cultivator, but the prerequisite is that you must pass the test at the Tianyin Dojo."

Lin Qingyue: "Is that so? I thought only geniuses among geniuses would go to Qianshan to discuss Taoism."

Wenren Shuyu: "The Thousand Mountains Forum is a competition between geniuses from all over the world of immortal cultivation. By interacting with them more, we sword cultivators can learn more about things outside of Zhongzhou."

……

……

"You are going to participate in the Thousand Mountains Forum." The Dust-Breaking System said to Lin Qingyue.

"I will go to Qianshan to discuss the Dao."

Lin Qingyue also had this plan, which coincided with the Broken Dust System.

"The Thirteen Yue Sect may not have noticed what you did. You acted too hastily and without regard for the consequences."

Lin Qingyue: "Of course I know I can expose them step by step, but someone will be sacrificed, and that would be a meaningless sacrifice. I have the ability not to do it, and then I will become their accomplice."

Dust-breaking System: “…”

Nothing to say.

Su'e later found Lin Qingyue and met her again, her face full of complexities: "Master found me and I told him everything. You leave here now, they will find you soon."

Lin Qingyue: "What are you afraid of? Does he have evidence?"

Su E: "Then you swear an oath to your inner demon that you will not tell the secret to anyone."

"And give me the photo as well."

Lin Qingyue suddenly realized that Su'e was looking for her for this reason.

"Not yet." Lin Qingyue said with a smile: "You've already told the whole story, and you still want me to swear an oath and take a photo for you. I don't want to say anything harsh, but Miss Su is being too eager for quick success."

Su'e's face changed: "What can I do? Once this matter is exposed, I will be finished."

Lin Qingyue: "Miss Su'e paid for love. Although her feelings are deep and sincere, isn't she asking for trouble?"

"I...how could I have known that you would hold such a grudge against Xiao Weiqian? What on earth did he do to make you hate him so much? He...is obviously a very good person!"

Lin Qingyue suppressed his expression, his eyes revealing impatience: "You think you're a good person, but you're ruining the future of your fellow disciples, pretending to be a gentleman in front of the world. In reality, you're selfish, hypocritical, greedy, and arrogant. Of course, the fact that you're with him shows that your vision isn't very good either."

Su E froze and said stubbornly, "The person is already dead. There is no point in talking about this now."

"You're right." Lin Qingyue chuckled: "So I need you to help me with something."

Su'e immediately looked at Lin Qingyue with vigilance: "I can't possibly help you do anything that would harm the Thirteen Yue Sect."

Lin Qingyue looked innocent: "How could I do anything to harm the Thirteen Yue Sect? I'm obviously helping you eliminate the evil, isn't this a good thing for you?"

"For example, why did your master suddenly become concerned about the affairs of the Liushi Sect? Is he colluding with the Liushi Sect? Are most of the banned drugs that disappeared from the Liushi Sect in the private vault of an elder of the Thirteen Yue Sect..."

"That's enough!" Su'e interrupted Lin Qingyue: "I can't possibly help you, this matter ends here!"

"The Liushi Clan has already paid the price! What else do you want? Do you have to turn things upside down before you're satisfied?!"

After Su'e finished speaking, she raised her foot to leave. Lin Qingyue did not follow her, but watched her leave step by step.

Dust Breaking System: "To deal with such a fence-sitter, wouldn't direct threats be more effective?"

Lin Qingyue: "Even if I don't threaten her, she will come back because she won't gamble on the possibility of failure."

Dust-Breaking System: "That's right. Fence-sitters are fence-sitters because they're too concerned with gain and loss, always trying to please both sides, but the end result is usually that they end up pleasing neither side."

Lin Qingyue meditated on the spot. After just a cup of tea, the footsteps stopped beside her, and the voice of Su'e came to her ears.

"What can I do to keep you from telling the secret?"

Lin Qingyue looked at Su'e deeply and said with a smile: "As long as you catch the real murderer, I will let you go."

……

……

"Didn't the Thirteen Yue Sect invite Fellow Daoist Lin?"

Lin Qingyue and Su'e returned to her residence, where Zhu Feiran was waiting for them.

To be precise, he was waiting for Lin Qingyue.

"After the sword competition, Fellow Daoist Lin seems more high-spirited than before. But if he can't distinguish between good and evil, he'll be laughable."

"It's the same with Fellow Daoist Zhu. I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Zhu is so well-informed. If someone doesn't know, they would think that you are in love with me." Lin Qingyue looked at Zhu Feiran jokingly.

I thought he would be furious, but I didn't expect that.
