Chapter 200 Uninvited in front of the water mirror

Long Qi was pacing back and forth in a distracted manner, his face sometimes showing worry, sometimes impatience. From time to time, he would look towards the place where Lingxiang had just disappeared, or look at Ajin, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

It’s not that he was afraid of Ajin, but because he had a close relationship with Zhao Wuyang, he didn’t want to make the atmosphere too tense.

When Zheng Longqi was extremely anxious, a cloud of dust rose up. It was Lingxiang and the old mountain god who came back. The old mountain god was carrying a strange bag and looked depressed, like a rooster that had lost a fight. Lingxiang, on the other hand, seemed to be in a very good mood, with a beaming smile on his face.

Long Qi hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Lingxiang, looking left and right, afraid that she was hurt, and kept asking her if she was bullied.

Seeing this, the old mountain god couldn’t help but curl his lips at the two of them and muttered, “This little girl is very powerful. No one can hurt her. It’s good enough that she doesn’t bully others.”

Although it was just a mumble, the people present could hear it clearly, and everyone had different expressions on their faces when they heard it.

Xinyi smiled helplessly, while Zhao Wuyang nodded in response, and the two seemed to agree with this very much; Liu Xia had a calm expression, as if his mind was elsewhere, and no one knew what he was thinking about; Banxia was surprised, thinking that Lingxiang was so powerful that she could even defeat the old immortal, and she admired her even more; and Ajin looked calm, as if he had expected it.

However, Long Qi was furious. After making sure that Lingxiang was fine, he stepped forward, grabbed the old mountain god’s clothes, and raised his fist to hit him. Fortunately, Xinyi Zhao Wuyang grabbed him, so the fist did not fall.

The old immortal easily broke free and hid behind Lingxiang. He brushed off the ragged collar that was wrinkled by Long Qi and said in an elder’s tone: “Young man, don’t be so violent. Keep a calm mind…”

He seemed to do it on purpose, and his words simply added fuel to the fire. Long Qi was even more furious after hearing it. If Xinyi Zhao Wuyang had not tried his best to stop him, he would have pulled out the Seven Star Dragon Abyss.

Xinyi tried to dissuade Long Qi while smiling helplessly. She really didn’t know why this old immortal wanted to provoke Long Qi like this. Could it be that he just thought it was fun?

Seeing Long Qi’s furious look, the old immortal seemed to have finally found his balance. He stroked his beard with great satisfaction, turned to Lingxiang and said, “We have just agreed that I will take you to Shuijing. If you are discovered by Yunzhongjun after entering Yunmengze, don’t expose me!”

Lingxiang smiled slyly, patted the Qiankun bag on her waist, and said confidently: “Of course, am I the kind of person who doesn’t keep his word? Since we have made three rules, I will naturally do it. Besides, I have already sworn an oath, what else are you worried about?”

Although most people who practice Taoism keep their promises, the old mountain god is still worried. This girl is Tumi’s daughter, and her mind is as complicated as hers. Who knows what she will plot against him? He is afraid of Tumi’s plots.

The old mountain god looked at Lingxiang doubtfully, then thought: Since the little girl said so, she will surely keep her word – those who practice Taoism will never mess around with the Taoism, they attach great importance to this.

Thinking of this, the old mountain god smacked his lips and said, “In this case, I will trust you for once.” Then he called everyone to come closer to him. Long Qi naturally didn’t trust the old mountain god, thinking that he was up to something again, so he held Lingxiang back and didn’t let anyone get close.

Lingxiang looked at Long Qi, patted his hands soothingly, and repeatedly told him that nothing would go wrong. Only then did Long Qi reluctantly go with Lingxiang to take the test, but he held her tightly all the time.

As Long Qi Lingxiang approached, the old mountain god shouted loudly, “Let’s go!” Everyone felt dizzy and didn’t know how long it had been. When they came to their senses, they were in a forest. As soon as they landed, they were in a panic. Among the people present, except Lingxiang and Ajin, who were calm, Xinyi was standing but frowning, obviously feeling very uncomfortable. Zhao Wuyang, Liu Xia and Banxia sat on the ground. It was their first time to experience the art of escaping the earth. Zhao Wuyang felt his stomach churning and almost vomited.

Although Long Qi’s face was pale, he stood without falling down, which surprised the old mountain god.

The old mountain god naturally didn’t know that Long Qi had experienced the art of earth escape twice with Shoucheng. As soon as the feeling of chaos came over him, he remembered the experience of being sent to the ancient bamboo forest by Lingxiang, and he had already made preparations to settle down.

Everyone was still trying to calm their physical and mental discomfort when they heard the old mountain god say, “This is the Water Mirror, the entrance to Yunmeng Lake!”

Looking in the direction pointed by the old mountain god, through a few old trees, there was actually a pond not far away, but the pond looked a little strange. There was clearly wind blowing through the forest, but the water was calm and still, like a silver mirror. Just when Lingxiang wanted to get closer to take a closer look, the old mountain god grabbed her and said, “I have brought you here. It’s time for you to fulfill your promise.”

Lingxiang rolled her eyes, then took out the tortoise shell containing the recipe for the Huitian Pill from her Qiankun bag and handed it to the old mountain god.

The old mountain god took the tortoise shell and laughed after confirming it was correct: “It’s finally in my hands. Now I can explain to Fairy Yao Ji!” As soon as he finished speaking, he turned into a ray of light, and flew into the pool like a meteor, accompanied by a laugh that resounded through the forest.

Seeing the old mountain god go into the pool, the water surface did not show any ripples, and remained calm. This made Lingxiang even more curious, and she looked at Ajin, hoping to get some information from him, but Ajin just crossed his arms and shrugged.

Although Ah Jin has practiced for many years, he has been wandering in the world all year round. He only knows one side of the water mirror in Yunmengze and not the other.

Seeing that Ajin could not be relied upon, Lingxiang sighed: It seems that I can only go forward and find out what’s going on.

Xinyi was still patting Zhao Wuyang’s back, and Liu Xiafang helped Banxia up. Before everyone could react, they saw Lingxiang walking to the edge of the pond alone. Fearing that the pond was dangerous, everyone hurriedly followed, but was shocked after seeing the appearance of the pond.

The bottom of the pool was impossible to see; it was completely dark and not even the surrounding scenery was reflected in it.

Lingxiang reached her hand down, but she didn’t feel any water, but her hand did go deep. When she scooped up her hands, she found nothing.

She couldn’t help but frown and took out the Penglai branch from her Qiankun bag. Just as Lingxiang was thinking about how to use it, she heard a burst of laughter, and then a white figure walked out of the forest.

“My dear friend Long Qi, it’s been a long time since we last met. I hope you are well!” The man waved his folding fan and greeted Long Qi with a smile.

Long Qi turned his head and saw that the person coming was none other than Wei Wuchang, whom he met at the Wangyou Tavern in Liangcheng, and there was a person tied up behind him!

A woman!
