Land Sword Immortal: Eighty Years as the Guardian of the Sword Pavilion
Chapter 333 – Junior Sister? Is it Sister Qing?

Chapter 333 – Junior Sister? Is it Sister Qing?

"Meng Benefactor, who is this woman?" Meng Fan asked the old monk deep within his Sea of Consciousness.

He couldn't discern the woman's depth, but he was certain the old monk could.

The old monk replied, "Meng Benefactor, you're putting me in a difficult position. If even you can't see through her, how could I possibly know?"

"However, if you're willing to give me that Soul Suppressing Bead, I would risk damaging my Divine Soul to help you uncover her background."

Meng Fan sneered inwardly. This old monk was trying to play games with him?

"Old monk, I think you should wait until the Spirit Stones in your relic run out before you speak to me in that tone. Otherwise..."

In the next second, the Spirit Stones in the relic vanished.

Deep within the Sea of Consciousness, the old monk's expression suddenly stiffened.

Careless!

He had forgotten about that.

"This woman is currently at the seventh level of the Summoning God Realm, far surpassing you. She's almost as strong as that leader from the Fengyun Demon Sect you encountered before. It's normal that you can't see through her cultivation level," the old monk obediently said.

Upon hearing this, Meng Fan placed the Spirit Stones back into the old monk's relic.

However, now it was his turn to have a headache.

Why did another cultivator with such a high cultivation level appear?

This time, he didn't have Elder Lin's Sword Seal.

Although the seventh level of the Summoning God Realm was much weaker than the peak of the Summoning God Realm, Meng Fan, with his fourth level of the Condensing Elixir Realm, was definitely no match.

Should he rely on the power of the Hidden Dragon Jade?

That would cost ten thousand Spirit Stones!

If Elder Lin hadn't mentioned that the Hidden Dragon Jade was worth ten thousand Spirit Stones, he wouldn't even consider it.

Wait, this woman named Zhong Lingxiu was different from that Fengyun Demon Sect leader, Zhang Hongfei.

Zhang Hongfei came with the intent to kill, determined to eliminate Meng Fan without negotiation!

But this Zhong Lingxiu didn't have any killing intent, not even malice. She was merely curious about the purpose of a Condensing Elixir Realm cultivator's arrival.

Moreover, Zhang Hongfei was from the Fengyun Demon Sect, while Zhong Lingxiu belonged to the Hundred Flowers Sect.

Both the Hundred Flowers Sect and the Shu Mountain Sword Sect were righteous sects.

What was he afraid of?

He had been overly cautious, instinctively thinking that anyone with a higher cultivation level wanted to harm him.

Understanding this, Meng Fan smiled slightly.

He decided to be honest. On second thought, meeting Zhong Lingxiu might not be a bad thing.

"Sister Zhong, you must be a disciple of the Hundred Flowers Sect, right? I am Wu Tian, a disciple of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect. I have no ill intentions coming here; I'm actually looking for someone."

Zhong Lingxiu's beautiful eyes flashed with surprise as she looked at Meng Fan. "How did you guess my identity? With your cultivation level, you should see me as an ordinary person."

Meng Fan continued with a (fake) smile, "Sister Zhong, your aura is otherworldly, like a celestial being. How could you be a mere mortal?"

Zhong Lingxiu giggled. If anyone else had said this, she would have found it greasy, even disgusting.

But looking at Meng Fan's face, she felt extremely delighted.

Whether Meng Fan was a face-con was debatable, but she certainly was!

"Looking for someone? Who are you looking for? Maybe I can help," Zhong Lingxiu said with a smile.

Meng Fan was right; she had no malice towards him. She was just curious about the presence of a Condensing Elixir Realm cultivator in Lily Town.

After all, the town was mostly inhabited by mortals. If Meng Fan intended to cause trouble, the consequences would be unimaginable.

It was a coincidence that she was visiting relatives in Lily Town these past few days.

If Meng Fan had come a couple of days earlier or later, they wouldn't have met.

"Sister Zhong, I have a junior sister who is also a disciple of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect. I heard she came near the Hundred Flowers Sect, but I can't contact her, so I came to look for her," Meng Fan said honestly.

If this Sister Zhong from the Hundred Flowers Sect was willing to help him find Li Xuerou, things would be much easier.

After all, she was a local with many connections.

Unlike him, searching like a needle in a haystack.

"A junior sister from the Shu Mountain Sword Sect? It seems like she's your childhood sweetheart, right? Did you have a fight, and she ran away to hide from you?" Zhong Lingxiu teased Meng Fan with a smile.

Meng Fan felt slightly embarrassed under her gaze.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt the Hong Qi Sword tremble slightly.

"Sister Zhong, you misunderstand. That junior sister is like my own sister. We grew up in the same village," Meng Fan explained.

He didn't know why he felt the need to explain this.

In the Hong Qi Sword, Hong Qi's soul muttered, "Men are all pigs, losing their minds at the sight of a beauty."

Even Xiao Qing poked its little head out of Meng Fan's pocket, secretly observing Zhong Lingxiu.

Although it wasn't a man, it was still male.

Hearing Meng Fan's explanation, Zhong Lingxiu's smile grew wider. "Isn't that childhood sweethearts? It's normal for men and women to fall in love. Your Shu Mountain Sword Sect isn't a Buddhist sect; there's nothing to be embarrassed about."

When she said "men and women falling in love," she winked playfully at Meng Fan.

In the Hong Qi Sword, Hong Qi cursed, "Shameless woman, no sense of propriety."

But since she was in the Hong Qi Sword, Meng Fan couldn't hear her.

Even if he did, he might find it inexplicable and incomprehensible.

"Sister Zhong, please don't tease me. Have you seen my junior sister?" Meng Fan waved his hand, and a stream of True Essence formed Li Xuerou's face on the table.

Cultivators were not like mortals; their methods were beyond mortal imagination.

If it were a mortal, they might need to find pen and paper to draw Li Xuerou's face.

Even the best artist would struggle to capture an exact likeness.

But for a cultivator, it was just a matter of a stream of True Essence, creating a face identical to the real person.

Far superior to Earth's photography technology!

No, not just superior—completely surpassing.

After all, photos are 2D, while Meng Fan's True Essence simulation was 3D.

More lifelike and vivid!
