After rebirth, the eldest sister voluntarily abdicated and gave way to the wise.

Chapter 470 Spring Dawn

"This humble monk has other matters to attend to, I must take my leave!" Before the words were even finished, the man had already lifted his robe and was ready to run away.

Unfortunately, he was fast, but the person chasing him was even faster. He had only taken two steps forward when a plain-colored silk ribbon tightly wrapped around his waist, pulling him backward and causing him to stumble.

Kongjue's expression immediately collapsed, and his previous image as a virtuous monk vanished completely. He started waving his arms and legs, shouting and yelling "Help!" as if someone had already skinned him alive.

The woman who had grabbed him could no longer contain herself and snapped, "Shut up!"

Kongjue immediately shut his mouth.

Jiang Liqian stood to the side, awkwardly unsure whether to leave now or kindly step forward to persuade him.

The woman who had captured the person only then realized that there were still people around, and she turned her head shyly to give Jiang Liqian an embarrassed smile.

"Um, hello, my name is Chunxiao, I'm a disciple of the Hehuan Sect, what's your name?"

Acacia sect?

A barely perceptible chill flashed across Jiang Liqian's eyes.

But the person opposite her still caught that coldness. She pouted, turned her head, and said with displeasure in her voice, "I thought you were a good person, that's why I introduced myself. What, are you one of those old-fashioned people with worldly prejudices who think the Joyful Union Sect is a grotesque and unworthy sect?"

"Of course not! Fellow Daoist Jiang is not that kind of person. She is my future disciple, who will inherit the mantle of my Jinshan Temple and spread Buddhism to the suffering people!" Kongjue immediately refuted her words, his tone full of dissatisfaction.

"Shut up!" Chunxiao said fiercely, kicking him in the back, causing him to stumble and fall to the ground, where she sat down on him.

Humiliation, utter humiliation!

What a vicious woman!

"You speak, and if you say something that displeases me, don't blame me for teaching you a lesson!" Chunxiao raised her chin high, the white belt in her hand like a silver whip ready to strike at any moment.

Jiang Li lowered her eyes and said without hesitation, "I was recently ambushed by the Snow Charm Incense developed by your sect and almost suffered a terrible fate. It's understandable that I'm upset when I hear about your sect."

“I am not a rotten piece of wood.”

Chunxiao blushed and immediately lowered her head guiltily. She got up from Kongjue's body, bowed deeply, and sincerely apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't understand the situation and wronged you, fellow Daoist. That Xuemei Incense... it's because my sect didn't discipline its disciples properly, which led to their rebellion. Instead, the incense was leaked out and became a source of harm."

After apologizing, she sighed again, somewhat helplessly saying, "This incense is colorless and odorless. Just a whiff of it will poison you. Fortunately, the production of this incense is very complicated, and the spiritual plants used are also very unusual. Our sect has already banned this incense. The Snow Charm Incense outside is becoming less and less, and it won't last long. Our sect will also send more people to do everything we can to retrieve this incense."

Jiang Liqian was taken aback for a moment and asked her, "This incense is colorless and odorless, but if you smell even a tiny bit, you'll be poisoned?"

Chunxiao nodded: "Yes, that's why we have to be extra careful when storing it. If the container is even slightly damaged, it will be poisoned by the aphrodisiac of Xue Meixiang."

Jiang Liqian finally understood how Jiang Jiao'er had poisoned her.

It's that bracelet!

She knew she would never accept anything of dubious origin and would most likely destroy it immediately for safety reasons. The fact that the bracelet contained Xue Meixiang (a type of incense) suited her perfectly.

She's so bold. Isn't she afraid that instead of destroying the bracelet, she'll just throw it away?

Thinking of this, Jiang Liqian couldn't help but smile bitterly to herself.

So she understood.

She understood that no matter how calm and collected she appeared on the surface, if she suspected even the slightest possibility that the bracelet might have been given to her by her, she would harbor resentment in her heart and destroy it.

Indeed, only your enemies, only the one who takes advantage of you, know how resentful and painful you are.

"Fellow Daoist..." Chunxiao spoke softly, lowering her voice as she cautiously asked, "Where is that... person who tried to harm you? Could you hand him over to our Hehuan Sect so we can interrogate him to see if he knows anything more about the whereabouts of Xue Meixiang? Don't worry, after the interrogation, we won't let him get away with it. We'll definitely avenge you!"

A faint smile appeared on Jiang Liqian's lips, a smile that seemed nonchalant: "I killed them all, chopped off their arms and legs, and tore them to pieces."

Chunxiao was stunned. Kongjue, who had been tied up like a dumpling with plain ribbon, also stopped struggling. After stammering for a long time, he gave a dry laugh with lingering fear: "Well, actually... Jinshan Temple is quite small. The meditation rooms are all full. I'm afraid... we can't accommodate one more person. Fellow Daoist Jiang... you definitely wouldn't look down on a small sect that doesn't even have a bed, right... right?"

Chunxiao rolled her eyes and smacked his bald head: "You cowardly, cunning, and treacherous bald monk, you've completely disgraced Nanzhou!"

"Hey, Chunxiao, be gentle, or your hands will hurt!" Kongjue cried, her eyes brimming with tears. She tried to hug her head in grievance, but her hands were tied, so she couldn't reach it.

Chunxiao ignored him and looked up at Jiang Liqian, saying, "This guy is no respectable monk. Fellow Daoist, if you have nowhere to go, I can introduce you to our Hehuan Sect. Fellow Daoist is light and agile, definitely a good prospect!"

"..." It had been a long time since she had experienced such a scramble for her to join the sect. Jiang Liqian hesitated for a moment, then quickly clarified, "Actually, I..."

"Fellow Daoist, rest assured, although our Hehuan Sect cultivates the art of Yin-Yang harmony, it is not all about male-female dual cultivation. There are also cultivation methods that focus only on the harmony of one's own Yin and Yang. We would never force you, Fellow Daoist," Chunxiao explained immediately, fearing that she might misunderstand.

Jiang Liqian felt even more embarrassed. Not wanting to waste her kindness any longer, she quickly explained before she could continue, "Um, my name is Jiang Liqian, and I am a disciple of the Tianqian Sect."

Chunxiao fell silent for a moment, staring blankly at Jiang Liqian for a while before glaring angrily at Kongjue on the ground: "You tricked me! I thought you were going to make a move on another naive, homeless girl. I was worried for nothing!"

Kongjue felt wronged and pitifully said, "I... I didn't know. She didn't say anything. I did it out of kindness to save the poor girl... Besides, she really has a connection with Buddhism. Otherwise, how could she have met me, who vowed to save all sentient beings?"

Chunxiao finally lost her temper and punched him twice in the face, yelling as she hit him: "You son of a bitch, I'll teach you to convert, I'll teach you to convert!"

"Not only did you drive away the man I finally managed to hook, but you also went after my next one, and the one after that. Now you're ruining other people's perfectly good girls. Who wants to go back to be a nun with you?!"

"I'll beat you to death and rid the people of this scourge!"
