Legend of the Great Sage

p>Three months later, Li Qingshan stepped out of the cave.
The speckled sunlight glimmered between the tree leaves like stars.
He raised his right hand; a vicious, demon dragon was wrapped around his wrist.

The three months of cultivation were not enough for him to completely unleash the might of the sixth layer of the Demon Suppression Statuary, but he was close.
Coupled with the Demon Dragon sword, he had basically recovered most of his strength.

“Congratulations on emerging, sir!” “A’yue!” Xianghua Zi and Xianghua Lu gathered over.

“How’s your story coming along?”

“As long as they don’t investigate too deeply, it definitely won’t give us away!” Xianghua Zi said confidently.

“Then let’s see if that’s really the case!”

Li Qingshan opened up the mental map of the Mist province and found the Lotus Flower peak where the headquarters of the White Lotus cult resided.
With a wave of his hand, a cloud rose up, and they took off.

The Lotus Flower peak appeared on the horizon.
It looked like a lotus flower about to bloom, giving off rings of white light that illuminated the night sky.

She must be here!

Li Qingshan gazed at the lotus flower in the distance and descended on the cloud, switching to travelling on foot.
He used the night to arrive below the mountain.

Everything progressed much more smoothly than he had imagined.
He did not even get to use the excuses he had prepared beforehand, and they let him in.
It was even easier than passing through the formations of the Zi Lotus altar.

This was due to a certain form of confidence.
Even if the leader of the Snake God cult was bold enough to infiltrate the headquarters, they could only enter and not leave!

Xianghua Zi mentioned Xianghua Hong’s name, but the person who came to receive them was an unfamiliar, cold man instead.
He asked, “Are you the disciples who managed to escape from the Zi Lotus altar?”

“Yes!”

“Come with me!” The man turned around and made his way up the mountain.

“Brother, may I ask where you’re taking us?”

“You’ll know once we get there.”

They followed the mountain path, and both Xianghua Zi and Xianghua Lu trembled in fear, huddling a little closer to Li Qingshan subconsciously.
Very soon, they arrived before a building.
At the entrance was a huge rock engraved with “Clear Ripple hall” that was supported by a lotus flower.

“The Clear Ripple hall!” Xianghua Zi exclaimed.
A sliver of fear appeared on her face.

Li Qingshan thought, There sure are a lot of people that know about the Clear Ripple hall, but if people who haven’t seen her try to identify her, it’s useless even if they know about her.

“The hall lord wishes to see you and ask you about what happened to the Zi Lotus altar.
You better watch your mouth a little later.
If you dare to show even the slightest disrespect…” A sliver of killing intent flashed through his eyes.

Xianghua Zi said in a hurry, “We would never!”

They passed through the hall and travelled until they arrived at a quiet courtyard at the back.
The man bowed politely.
“Hall lord, I’ve brought them!”

“Ru Xin!”

Li Qingshan basically blurted that out.
He stared straight at the woman in white.
Apart from Ru Xin, who else could she be? However, Ru Xin did not seem to recognise him.
Her face was indifferent.

“How dare you!” the man called out.
As a result, Li Qingshan copied Xianghua Zi and Xianghua Lu and bowed.
“Disciple of the Zi Lotus altar, Goldie A’bao, greets the hall lord!”

“You can go for now!” Ru Xin waved her hand without even looking at Li Qingshan.
She arrived before Xianghua Zi and Xianghua Lu and placed her hands on their shoulders.
She said gently, “Your mother told me everything.
There’s a spy in the Zi Lotus altar.
Was it you?”

“We’re not spies!” Xianghua Zi exclaimed.
Under the pressure, she was unable to remain calm at all, raising her voice involuntarily.
Meanwhile, Xianghua Lu fell completely silent.

“Then it must be you!” Ru Xin glanced at Li Qingshan.

“That’s right, it’s me!” Li Qingshan suddenly assumed his form with scarlet hair and eyes, gazing at Ru Xin brightly.

Ru Xin waved her hand, and Xianghua Zi and Xianghua Lu immediately collapsed.
She looked at Li Qingshan and said coldly, “Li Qingshan, you really are still alive!”
