61: Chapter 61 Reluctance and Separation

Heavenly Lord Danxia nodded: "So it's the secret realm key for this vicinity. If you find it useful, little friend, why not take them all?"

Xu Changsheng plucked them with satisfaction.

He estimated these were prepared by the Chixiao Sect for the Disciples about to enter the Secret Realm, and now they had all fallen into his pocket.

Now his secret realm keys had reached a staggering twenty-six.

Entering the Hongyun Spirit Spring marvelous land was more than enough; he could plan to enter other places of Opportunity in the Ancient Wood Secret Realm later.

Heavenly Lord Danxia pulled back Yun Xin's sleeve.

Xu Changsheng's eyelids twitched. Although he knew what Heavenly Lord Danxia was doing, he was still somewhat nervous.

On her lotus-like arm, a small cinnabar mole was embedded in the skin.

It was as condensed as a blazing flame, faintly revealing a golden glow.

Heavenly Lord Danxia slightly injected some spiritual power, and the cinnabar mole glowed with a luster like glazed amber.

She smiled with relief: "Fellow Daoist Xu is a gentleman; you did not take Yun Xin's first night."

Xu Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief: "I saw that Xiner's background was extraordinary, so I never performed the deeds of the bedchamber with her. Our intimacy was only superficial."

Heavenly Lord Danxia gave a half-smile: "Is that so? However, I see the color of this Geckoskin Mark has dimmed slightly. You must have taken Xiner's first kiss."

Xu Changsheng answered truthfully: "Yes."

His heart became uneasy again.

Yun Xin sensed a killing intent in the words and hurriedly explained: "Senior, it was all Xiner's own will to give it to Big Brother Xu. It's just that Big Brother Xu has always been unwilling to consummate the marriage with Xiner."

"Enough. For you to come out of a place of pleasure like the Yichun Courtyard and still maintain your purity has already exceeded this Lord's expectations."

Xu Changsheng raised his hand: "Junior has one more request. I wonder if Senior Danxia could assist."

"Speak freely."

"Today, so many Fellow Daoists saw you come out to protect Junior and Xiner, and even killed Jiang Junjie, a Golden Core True Person. I fear the Chixiao Sect will frame and accuse me."

Xu Changsheng's worry was not unfounded. After all, Chen Xuan was also present at the time, and he had been framed by this person more than once.

"So it's about this. Little friend Xu, there's no need to worry. Even if you didn't say it, this Lord would go to the Chixiao Sect to seek justice for Xiner. I will use some small tricks so that no one will suspect you, Fellow Daoist."

"The matter you're worried about, this Lord has been working on it from the start, including the protective barrier to isolate the battle and attracting the bald donkeys from the Great Heavenly Sound Temple."

"I see. Senior is indeed meticulous."

Seeing there were no other instructions, Heavenly Lord Danxia stepped forward and took Yun Xin's small hand.

"Let's go, Yun Xin."

Feeling an irresistible force dragging her, Yun Xin couldn't help but look back as they reached the cave entrance.

Within her Divine Sense.

Xu Changsheng stood there, waving his hand slightly at her.

"I don't want to!"

Yun Xin felt as if something inside her had fallen. She stopped following Heavenly Lord Danxia's lead.

Heavenly Lord Danxia was puzzled: "Xiner, what's wrong?"

"Why must Xiner go alone? I want Big Brother Xu to go to the Misty Immortal Sect with Xiner!"

Xu Changsheng lowered his hand and looked at the peerless Heavenly Lord Danxia with a helpless expression.

At the same time, he also had some expectations in his heart. The Misty Immortal Sect should be one of the strongest Sects in this realm. If he could enter, the hope of Ascension and longevity would become even greater.

Heavenly Lord Danxia did not refuse immediately but asked:

"Although our Sect has more women than men, there are indeed some male Cultivators. It just depends on Aptitude. I wonder what Little Friend Xu's Aptitude is like? Do you have any spirit body?"

Hearing this.

Xu Changsheng felt discouraged and replied: "My cultivation Aptitude is only a Low Grade Spiritual Root, and I don't have any spirit body."

If 'One Proof Eternal Proof' counted as a spirit body, then he indeed had one, but he would never tell anyone about it.

Heavenly Lord Danxia showed a look of regret: "Then it won't do. Our Sect recruits male Disciples who must have at least an Earth Grade Spiritual Root Aptitude or possess a spirit body similar to Xiner's Great Sun Immortal Burning Body."

Hearing that it wouldn't work.

Yun Xin threw a tantrum: "No! If Big Brother Xu doesn't go, Xiner won't go either."

Xu Changsheng sighed softly: "Xiner, why go this far?"

The scene froze for a moment. Heavenly Lord Danxia's expression gradually cooled. If she wanted to take Yun Xin away, no one could stop her, but she didn't want to use force yet.

Xu Changsheng asked again: "If not as a Disciple, what if I join as a Guest Elder?"

"Third-rank in Alchemy, Equipment, Talismans, or Arrays; fourth-rank in other arts. Then you can become a Guest Elder of our Sect."

Heavenly Lord Danxia had even less hope for this condition. A Qi Refining Cultivator talking about third-rank arts—what was that if not a joke?

Xu Changsheng realized: "Thank you for the explanation, Heavenly Lord."

"Yun Xin, why don't you go ahead to the Misty Immortal Sect with the Heavenly Lord first? Big Brother Xu will join as a Guest Elder later and meet you again."

In his memory, he had never told Yun Xin about the classification of ranks.

Seeing hope, Yun Xin asked eagerly: "Then how are Big Brother Xu's arts now?"

"Quasi-second-rank, about the same as second-rank, not far from third-rank."

Yun Xin cheered: "That's great! Big Brother Xu, if you reach third-rank in your arts, you must come to the Misty Immortal Sect to find Xiner."

"Okay, I will come find you."

Xu Changsheng made a promise without setting a time limit.

Yun Xin finally felt at ease and left with Heavenly Lord Danxia.

From behind came Xu Changsheng's words of congratulation: "I wish Xiner a smooth journey and an ever-flourishing immortal path!"

...

In the most secret room of the Gilded Warship.

On a luxurious couch, Yun Xin was fast asleep.

Heavenly Lord Danxia pointed her slender finger at her forehead: "This Heavenly Demon painted skin, Auntie will remove it for you now."

Something strange happened.

Yun Xin's surface skin began to crumble inch by inch, starting from between her eyebrows.

From her forehead to her neck, and from her neck to her limbs.

Countless flesh-colored fragments splattered，The bones all over his body were creaking.。

In just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, her figure and face changed completely.

She was two heads taller than before.

Her face underwent an earth-shattering transformation.

Her original face wasn't ugly, but it didn't have much attraction, at least it couldn't compare to Xie Wantang.

But now, her eyebrows were like kingfisher feathers, her skin like rouge, her eyes bright and teeth white—it could be called a city-toppling beauty.

There were two or three points of resemblance between her brows and Heavenly Lord Danxia's.

"Mist, you really look like your sister-in-law."

Her eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes.

"You... you are Senior Danxia?"

"Yes, you can also call me Auntie."

"Auntie..."

She blinked her eyes hard again and was suddenly overjoyed: "I... my eyes can see?!"

"Naturally. Previously, you were possessed by an evil spirit, which caused you to fall into the mortal world and lose your sight. Just now, Auntie performed a spell and has already healed you."

She brought over a bronze mirror: "Look, this is what you look like now."

"Am I... this beautiful?"

"Naturally. As the Saintess of my Liu family, how could your appearance be poor?"

"Liu family? Isn't my surname Yun?"

"To avoid suspicion earlier, I didn't call you by your real name in front of that boy."

"From now on, you are the Liu family's Saintess, Liu Yunyan!"
