48: Chapter 48 Could Senior Sister Zhuoxing's primordial yin energy not have dissipated?
In front of the rose wall.
The tattooed girl dug her fingers hard into Lin Mo's temples: "You actually turned a deaf ear to my words! You forced me to come all the way over here myself!"
Mmm mmm mmm...
What are you saying?
Lin Mo pointed at his deeply squished cheeks, and only then did Zhuo Xing let him go.
It smelled intoxicatingly good...
Senior Sister, someone who is always protected will never grow up. Besides, didn't I complete the mission brilliantly?
You know jack shit! Zhuo Xing shouted at the top of her lungs. That mission required at least six people at the third grade of Foundation Establishment or above to take on!
This kind of mission was issued by the Elders to train cooperation among Disciples in the first place. What business does someone in the Qi Refinement Stage like you have joining the fun?!
The corners of Lin Mo's mouth curled up: Didn't I complete it brilliantly?
Zhuo Xing stomped her long legs covered in beautiful tattoos, tore off a section of the white chest wrap from her chest, and tried to strangle Lin Mo's neck with it.
Lin Mo smiled: Hey~ Since Senior Sister Yu values me, I'm naturally no coward, right?
Besides, I'm someone who is very afraid of death. If I wasn't sure of myself, I wouldn't do it.
Zhuo Xing was so mad her chest trembled, looking as if it were about to be completely exposed. Lin Mo took a step ahead and helped pull it back up for her.
Who asked you to help!
Oh~ Lin Mo pulled it back down for her.
Zhuo Xing was so furious that she chased him for two miles.
Senior Sister, stop fooling around. I got a bead here, can you help me take a look?
Lin Mo threw the purple bead to Zhuo Xing, and she held it in her hand to examine it.
Where did you get this?
It dropped after I destroyed the evil spirit during this mission.
Zhuo Xing carried her mace, looking like she had a stomachache, and tossed the bead back to Lin Mo:
You're really lucky. This thing is called an Evil-Slaying Bead. Destroying ten thousand evil spirits might not even yield one.
You obviously stepped into dog luck!
Lin Mo smiled: Is it very valuable?
Ghost cultivators really want this stuff, and it can also be used to refine the Seven-Fiends Pill.
Lin Mo handed it forward: I'll give it to Senior Sister.
For me? If you give this thing to an Alchemist in the Alchemy Hall, you could net a pretty big favor.
Lin Mo stuffed the bead into her hand: Senior Sister cares so much about me, so I ought to show my appreciation too, right?
Zhuo Xing smiled sweetly: Sensible~
However~ She licked her lips, How about you give me something more practical instead? Big sister will cover for you in the future.
Lin Mo took half a step back.
Hmph~ I can tell at a glance that you don't like women like us. But this is the Hehuan Sect. How many women here do you think haven't tasted a man?
Seeing Lin Mo didn't answer, Zhuo Xing gave him a punch:
I can see you won't stay put obediently. For the sake of this Evil-Slaying Bead, I'll take you along for seven days and boost your merit points.
So you won't even have merit points when you go somewhere in the Sect to get things done.
Lin Mo pondered for a moment.
He couldn't escape Yu Meier's side for now, and grinding alone wasn't an option.
Zhuo Xing was a first-class Core Disciple, at the third grade of the Golden Core Stage herself, and seemed exceptionally forthright.
It was better to cling to this tattooed thigh first.
Speaking of which, the Hehuan Sect actually really disliked senior Disciples bringing junior ones along, because it was too time-consuming and laborious, with no extra rewards.
Lin Mo had a pretty good impression of this Tattooed Senior Sister. At least she seemed overbearing, but she would never force herself on him...
Then thank you, Senior Sister!
Small matter. From now on, we're on the same team. I'm very protective of my own. I guarantee your reputation in the Hehuan Sect will skyrocket in these seven days.
For some reason... Lin Mo suddenly had a bad feeling.
Lin Mo chased after Zhuo Xing and asked many questions, and she answered them all patiently.
After nightfall, Lin Mo habitually walked towards Qingxue Pavilion.
Hey~ Senior Sister just entered seclusion, and you already miss her?
Useless!
Over the next seven days.
Lin Mo finally understood why everyone in the Sect was so afraid of her.
She was simply a female tyrant!
Sometimes when the Law Enforcement Hall saw her bullying someone, they would take a detour.
What kind of concept was that?
The inspectors offering cigarettes!
Lin Mo also successfully became a lackey, joining her in bullying quite a few Inner Sect Disciples.
He thought Zhuo Xing had an immense background, but later learned that she had also climbed up step-by-step from the Outer Sect.
The main reason for her terrifying reputation was that back in the day, she wielded her mace and swung it at every single Prodigy of her generation.
As a result, Lin Mo's status as Yu Meier's subordinate seemed completely cemented.
Of course, there were still mostly jealous people.
It was just that the circle surrounding Yu Meier in the Hehuan Sect was far too large.
It was like a fan club loving and supporting each other.
This also caused Lin Mo's reputation in the Sect to spread further and wider.
Actually, it was mainly because every time he went out on a mission with Zhuo Xing, his Realm would increase by a minor sub-stage.
All the way up to the first grade of Foundation Establishment!
With someone like Zhuo Xing who could take the blame for him around.
Lin Mo naturally had to take the opportunity to reveal his true Realm.
This also made many people deeply curious about Zhuo Xing's teaching methods.
Quite a few Elders who took in Disciples swallowed their pride to ask her.
But... Zhuo Xing herself was shocked by Lin Mo's speed of advancement.
He clearly just followed behind her to steal last hits, so how did he break through Realms repeatedly?
Even Saints and Saintesses didn't have this speed back then, right?
Zhuo Xing was quite a vain person. Now that she had trained Lin Mo so well, she had plenty of Face.
Seven days later in the Mission Hall, Zhuo Xing patted Lin Mo's shoulder:
Alright, you can already stand on your own now. There's no need for me to teach you anything anymore.
What's with this brothel madam tone of yours... Lin Mo cupped his hands and said:
Hanging out with Senior Sister has benefited me immensely. If Senior Sister needs my help in the future, I will absolutely...
Zhuo Xing hummed with a laugh and slapped her hand on his shoulder: What a coincidence, I actually do have something I need your help with.
Lin Mo's eyelids twitched, wishing he could slap his own mouth.
Truly hasty.
The once-every-five-years recruitment is starting in three days. Represent Zhongzheng Peak and make up the numbers.
Ah? Me? Lin Mo pointed at his own nose. I just reached Foundation Establishment!
Zhuo Xing snorted:
If I hadn't been taking you around these seven days, I would have found someone for the quota assigned to me long ago. Now I'm short by one.
You wouldn't refuse to help with such a small favor, would you? Hmm?
Lin Mo looked at her slightly narrowed eyes and scratched his cheek: Is it hard?
Zhuo Xing: It's just helping out with odd jobs and following the arrangements of the Elders' Hall and Affairs Hall.
Alright then.
Zhuo Xing curled her lip: Are you still reluctant?
Do you know how many people begged me to give them a spot, and I didn't?
The benefits of going to help are huge. Don't you like virgins? You get it now, right?
Lin Mo understood.
Recruitment was recruitment. Although most candidates were new Disciples, there were also many who had already entered cultivation.
But one rule remained unchanged.
That was, female cultivators who wanted to rely on the Yin-Yang Heqi Technique to gamble on the number of golden vein lines on their Golden Core had to ensure their pure yin remained preserved in their bodies for a long time.
The Yin-Yang Heqi Technique was currently the most effective Cultivation Technique to increase the number of golden lines.
And this Cultivation Technique was only effective for female cultivators.
People like Senior Sister Gu, who naturally possessed Charm Bones, didn't need Yang Qi supplementation; they could achieve the desired effect purely relying on Charm Bones.
For female cultivators without Charm Bones, if they wanted to achieve such an effect, the only way was proper Dual Cultivation.
So, the recruitment scene would surely be filled with female cultivators whose pure yin was still intact.
Senior Sister, I'm an honorable man.
Pfft~ You? Zhuo Xing doubled over in laughter. An honorable man?
Lin Mo: I am a human being, a human being with integrity!
Then it's settled. Go report to the Affairs Hall tomorrow. I feel like I'm about to break through my Realm, so I'm going into seclusion for a few days.
Be careful on your own. I'll also have others look after you, so don't worry.
If anyone bullies you while I'm in seclusion, write it down. When I come out, I'll take care of them for you!
Lin Mo smiled: Alright, Senior Sister~
Zhuo Xing patted his head: Junior Brother, I think very highly of you. I feel you'll definitely become the brightest shining star in the Hehuan Sect in the future.
Don't disappoint Senior Sister~
After saying that, Zhuo Xing stepped onto her Flying Sword and departed, waving her hand without looking back as she flew.
Lin Mo stretched: What a pity... what a pity...
Is Junior Brother lamenting that Senior Sister Zhuo Xing's pure yin is no longer intact?
Lin Mo turned his head to look: Brother Shen, out doing tasks again today?
Shen Qingshan happened to have returned from completing a task. Seeing Lin Mo sighing and groaning, he came over to say hello.
Brother Lin, you haven't answered my question yet.
I didn't think that, don't talk nonsense.
Shen Qingshan smiled: We're both men, who doesn't understand who? Brother Lin, being in the Hehuan Sect, this mindset of yours is very problematic.
Let me not talk about that. Everyone has their own ambitions. You joined the Sect late and don't know many things. I have some somewhat unreliable hearsay here, do you want to hear it?
Lin Mo raised an eyebrow: Go ahead.
Shen Qingshan leaned in and whispered softly in his ear:
Senior Sister Zhuo Xing's pure yin is actually still intact. She deliberately used a Spiritual Artifact to create the appearance of having lost her pure yin.
Lin Mo shook his head in disbelief.
Believe it or not, it's up to you. I'm just asking you, have you ever personally seen Senior Sister Zhuo Xing bring a male cultivator back to her courtyard, or seen a male cultivator come out of her courtyard?
Lin Mo still didn't believe it: What's there to hide about this kind of thing? Besides, Senior Sister Zhuo Xing is already at the Golden Core Stage. I heard she has a Nine-Veined Golden Core, too...
Shen Qingshan smiled: Yeah, a Nine-Veined Golden Core.
Lin Mo's Face froze.
That's right, Senior Sister had fought her way all the way from the Outer Sect to the status of a Core Disciple in the Inner Sect.
During that time, she had already started cultivating the Yin-Yang Heqi Technique.
If her pure yin was gone, how could she reach a Nine-Veined Golden Core?
Exceptional talent?
If this matter was true, why would she want to hide it?
