Zhang Chen looked at Xie Lingyun, who was making a guarantee, and instantly relaxed. Since Xie Lingyun said so, there were no problems.
Then Zhang Chen spread open the Upper Pure Handwriting he held, his face bashful and embarrassed, "Sister, this handwriting is quite bizarre. After I finished reading the runes on it the other day, three hundred sixty runes actually disappeared into thin air."
As he spoke, Zhang Chen handed the book to Xie Lingyun, his eyes full of innocence, "I really just looked at it, I didn't do anything, and the runes on the book disappeared into thin air."
Upon hearing Zhang Chen's words, Xie Lingyun was stunned, quickly picked up the book, and flipped through the whole book rapidly, her eyelids starting to twitch.
She personally checked it, and indeed Zhang Chen hadn't done anything, but precisely because of this, it became more difficult to handle.
"Did you possibly comprehend something from the book?" Xie Lingyun asked Zhang Chen, putting forward her hypothesis, "And then because you absorbed the mysterious power of the book, the contents vanished?"
Thinking back to when he came up with the complete Talisman Array, the three hundred sixty runes transformed into golden light absorbed by him, Zhang Chen's heart skipped, "Could it really be so?"
Xie Lingyun, looking at Zhang Chen's expression, had an inkling and knew she had guessed the truth. Looking at the blank talisman in her hand, Xie Lingyun scratched her head, "This talisman is seldom noticed, I will sneak it back when I return, and in the future, it may not be read often. Even if it is read in the future, I can blame the ink fading with age, leading to the disappearance of the runes. As long as they don't catch evidence, no one can point fingers at us."
"I've caused trouble for you, sister." Zhang Chen said awkwardly.
"Causing trouble is an exaggeration. Just a minor inconvenience, not worth mentioning." Xie Lingyun said.
Hearing Xie Lingyun's words, Zhang Chen promptly poured her a cup of tea: "I use tea instead of wine to apologize to you, sister."
Xie Lingyun didn't hold back, accepted the tea from Zhang Chen, and asked, "In seven days it's the day to discuss at the foot of the mountain. Are you going?"
Zhang Chen hesitated briefly before speaking, "I started this matter, of course, I have to go."
"Now that such an incident occurred at Huangli Temple, I'm afraid they won't let you go down the mountain easily. Follow me down later, saying you're coming to my household as a guest, and return in a few days." Xie Lingyun looked at Zhang Chen as she suggested.
Zhang Chen hesitated, not wanting to go to the Inspection and Supervision Department, let alone face that old guy Xie Xuan.
Zhang Chen knew that those old guys were sharp, facing Xie Xuan was still a bit premature.
He wanted to go into the mountain, find the weaknesses of the Feng Shui Grand Array, thinking about how to break it and retrieve the treasures within the Empress Tomb.
"I can go down the mountain with you, sister, but I have some things to take care of first, how about we part ways at the foot of the mountain?" Zhang Chen asked.
Xie Lingyun didn't refute when she heard, acknowledging Zhang Chen's suggestion.
Thus, Zhang Chen chatted with Xie Lingyun, after lunch, Zhang Chen directly held the jar sealing Xie Lingyun's heart demon, went down the mountain with her.
As for Xiaodouding? Zhang Chen always felt it was unsafe to leave this little one in the mountain alone, but considering there are Great Cultivators overseeing now, such as Gu Mingyue, one of the twelve elders stationed at Huangli Temple, there shouldn't be any danger, so he went down the mountain with Xie Lingyun.
While Zhang Chen went down the mountain with Xie Lingyun, elder Liu Feng and others were secretly delighted in their hearts, although not going to work at the Inspection and Supervision Department, being invited by Xie Lingyun as a guest is still a significant improvement in relations.
Being invited down the mountain already, how far can the day of entering the Inspection and Supervision Department be?
They walked to the foot of the mountain, where Zhang Chen held the jar and bid farewell to Xie Lingyun.
"You truly don't want to come back with me? It's good to get acquainted with the routes early on, in case you can't find your way to me in the future." Xie Lingyun asked Zhang Chen who stood at the crossroads.
"I have an urgent matter, it's crucial and non-negotiable." Zhang Chen replied.
Seeing this, Xie Lingyun could only nod reluctantly, "In that case, finish your business and come to the city soon, I'll be waiting for you at the Huifeng Fresh Restaurant in the city."
After speaking, Xie Lingyun led hundreds of armored warriors away.
Watching Xie Lingyun's departing figure, Zhang Chen mused, "Xie Lingyun is already a Great Cultivator at the Possession realm, truly mastering the mysterious existence, yet still traveling with hundreds of ironclad guards, it shows that even when reaching her level of cultivation, one still can't challenge secular power."
"These armored warriors are not simple." A voice came from the jar, it was the Great Freedom Celestial Demon.
"How so?" Zhang Chen asked curiously, unable to discern any interference or blessing from mysterious power through his Dharma Eye.
"These armored warriors wear iron armor and seem to have something to do with the operation of qi blood; although the practice is flawed, it can resist possession in the Possession realm. As for cultivators at the Exorcism realm, they can only manipulate objects weighing several hundred pounds, facing a group of specially armored samurai, they might deal with ten or eight at once, but if twenty or so attack jointly, even cultivators at the Possession realm must retreat three paces." The Great Freedom Celestial Demon explained.
Hearing this, Zhang Chen pondered as he watched Xie Lingyun go further away, his eyes shifting back to the jar he held.
The jar was too conspicuous, and not convenient to carry.
