My brother is so cunning.

Luan Qingyu, who was trapped in the invisible barrier, had a vague sense of foreboding. As a cultivator who had reached the Nascent Soul stage, her sensitivity to danger increased exponentially. Even though she didn't know what those tubes were, she sensed a huge threat.

The girl quickly swung the Qingling sword in her hand to cut at the barrier, but the recoil force hurt her wrist and didn't shake the barrier at all.

After the mountain protection formation was activated, the spiritual stones consumed every minute and every second were astronomical figures. It was really not something that a mere Nascent Soul cultivator's life sword could break. Even if she wanted to leave a scratch on it, it would be difficult.

However, at the critical point when Luan Qingyu's mood turned from rage to panic, the alarm in her heart suddenly disappeared, the invisible barrier dissipated, the welded tubes were turned over and retracted, the piercing alarm stopped, and the glass lamp at the gate turned from red to green, and the dilemma was resolved by itself.

The iron gate of Jinling Sect opened, and the voice of Lingzhi Butler was heard again at the door: "Ding, the alarm is lifted. Please don't damage the property of Jinling Sect, Fairy Luan. Jinling Sect reserves the right to seek compensation for the time being, but it will not happen again."

Luan Qingyu was annoyed and said: "Damn it, neglecting guests is reasonable? Wen Rui, listen carefully, if it weren't for the recommendation of Senior Sister He, I would not bother to meet with you notorious people!"

"It turned out that it was introduced by Fairy He, a VIP customer of our sect. I am really neglectful."

The tone of Lingzhi Butler suddenly became much more lively, no longer so mechanical and cold: "Fairy Luan, why didn't you say so earlier? Since it's a recommendation from a familiar customer, our sect will welcome you wholeheartedly. Please move to the welcoming hall, Fairy Luan. I will inform Sect Master Wen to prepare the bed for you."

"Hmm?"

Luan Qingyu felt that there was something wrong with what Lingzhi said, but she couldn't point it out directly. She frowned slightly and raised her head and said, "I don't want to get angry with you foolish Lingzhi. Take me to see your Sect Master!"

Under the guidance of the voice, Luan Qingyu walked into the big iron gate of Jinling Sect and entered the metal room. Soon the door of the metal room opened and she came to a magnificent hall.

This hall is the "welcoming hall" mentioned by Lingzhi. The decoration is indeed extraordinary. It goes without saying that it is carved with gold and jade. There is a huge scroll hanging on the wall, which depicts a picture of a vast river and mountain. The painting skills and style are all top-notch, and the momentum is magnificent.

In the center of the hall was an oval table. As soon as she entered the hall, a metal puppet came forward and invited Luan Qingyu to the end of the oval table and asked her to sit on the gorgeous and comfortable gold velvet chair.

The metal puppet asked Luan Qingyu to wait for a moment in an extremely earnest tone, and randomly called several metal servants to put exquisite tea, snacks, candies, roasted insects, dried fish, freeze-dried rat meat in front of Luan Qingyu, and also served her several kinds of tea, including fruit tea, milk tea, black tea, green tea, and so on.

Luan Qingyu usually practices Crazy Bird, and has been ranked first all year round and is not short of spirit stones. Like He Lingyun in the past, she only regards Jinling Sect as a bad place for bad students to sneak out of the school gate and mess around.

She doesn't know as much about Jinling Sect as He Lingyun. Since the opening of Tianshang Renjian, she has never visited it once, and has never tasted the tea in front of her.

The fragrance of tea filled the air, and Luan Qingyu could not help but be tempted, but she was born in a noble family, and her upbringing was not comparable to those wild birds, so she restrained herself to maintain an elegant sitting posture, pretending to be indifferent to the delicious snacks.

The metal puppet possessed by Lingzhi housekeeper served very attentively and properly. Seeing that Luan Qingyu did not taste the tea, he did not persuade her too much, as if he was afraid that she would be bored waiting, so he played light music.

Luan Qingyu had never been to Tianshang Renjian, and she was immediately attracted by the quiet music coming from somewhere in the hall. Although she could not tell what instrument played such beautiful music, she soon became deeply addicted to it like all bird-shaped monks.

After the song was over, she couldn't help but ask, "What song is this?"

"Title: "Bird Poems." The metal puppet replied, "I wonder if it suits Fairy Luan's taste? If Fairy Luan likes more cheerful and lively music, there is another song "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix" for you to enjoy..."

Luan Qingyu interrupted it and asked, "Is this song composed by Wen Rui?"

"It seems that Fairy Luan has never been to Tianshang Renjian. If she had been there, she wouldn't ask this question."

The metal puppet smiled and said, "There is a plaque erected in a conspicuous place in the lobby of Tianshang Renjian. It is written very clearly that all the literature, music, art, food, and games of Jinling Sect are not original to Wen Rui. They are all plagiarized from a divine scroll from the sky. Please don't misunderstand the fairies of Lishan Xianzong. Sect Master Wen is afraid of being punished by heaven and dare not take the credit for himself. I would like to explain this."

"Humph, you have some self-knowledge."

Luan Qingyu heard this and said without comment.

Listening to the wonderful music played in the welcoming hall, Luan Qingyu's impatience gradually eased, and her vigilance slowly decreased. Thinking that all the sisters and junior sisters of Caiyun Peak had tasted the delicacies plagiarized by Wen Rui, there was no one around and she had no worries anyway, so she pretended to pick up the teacup and tasted the snacks casually.

It didn't matter if she ate it, she really ate it without saying a word. The milk tea was soft and sweet, the fruit tea was sour and sweet, and the black tea was fragrant and fragrant...

The various snacks and snacks were also very suitable for the taste buds of birds, and there were many categories. Luan Qingyu's eyes would light up every time she tasted one. It's not that she had never eaten real good things. After all, she was born in a wealthy family, and various spiritual fruits and spiritual herbs were not rare.

But those were the natural flavors of the ingredients themselves. Even if the top ingredients often only needed simple cooking, the cooking level of this era was not even simple, it could only be said to be crude, and it was even more unpalatable after cooking.

Food and music often make people forget themselves, and the combination of the two is even more effective. Luan Qingyu couldn't help but stuff food into her mouth. She even regretted that she should have gone to Tianshang Renjian with the sisters from Caiyun Peak to relax and have fun for a few days. She shouldn't have missed so many rare good things in the world.

"Tsk tsk, junior sister, you really haven't eaten anything good in your life."

While she was immersed in it, Luan Qingyu suddenly heard a male voice in her ear. She looked up and saw Wen Rui sitting at the other end of the round table, looking at her with a smile on his face.

Luan Qingyu's mouth was full of food at this moment, like a squirrel with a mouthful of acorns. Being seen by a man in such an embarrassing state made her even more embarrassed. She chewed hard and drank a big mouthful of fruit tea, trying to swallow it as soon as possible.

However, she made a mistake in her hurry. There were too many dried fruit crumbs in her mouth, and she accidentally choked. After drinking the fruit tea, the sour taste stimulated her and it spurted out with a puff. For a while, the scene was extremely embarrassing.

Luan Qingyu's pretty face was almost embarrassed. She was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to do. She wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. However, after waiting for a long time, she didn't hear any laughter. She secretly raised her eyes and saw that the man sitting opposite was fiddling with a set of tea sets and concentrating on making tea, as if he didn't see what happened just now.

The metal puppet directed the metal servant to silently clean up the mess in front of Luan Qingyu. He didn't make a sound during the whole process, which made him look like a professional butler.

Wen Rui raised his head and took a sip of the tea he had just brewed until everything was in order. He said, "I am Wen Rui from Jinling Sect. I have been under the tutelage of Lishan Sect for hundreds of years. This junior sister is unfamiliar to me. It seems that she has never visited my sect in all these years."

Luan Qingyu calmed down, bowed, and said seriously, "I am Luan Qingyu, a descendant of the phoenix. I was born in the Qingluan clan of Xiangwu Mountain. I have been a member of Lishan Immortal Sect for more than 200 years. I have been devoted to seeking the truth and practicing, but I have never visited my senior brother."

"Junior sister Luan is very talented. She has reached the Nascent Soul stage after practicing for only more than 200 years. Doesn't she lack spiritual stones for her daily practice?"

Wen Rui couldn't help but wonder: "The supply of spirit stones in Lishan was still good a hundred years ago, but it is much worse than before in the past hundred years. Many junior sisters in the Jindan stage are not enough with the highest monthly allowance of spirit stones."

"Although our Qingluan clan is declining now, the supply needed for cultivation is nothing."

Wen Rui nodded suddenly, thought for a while and said, "Since Junior Sister Luan is not short of spirit stones, why are you looking for me? I believe Junior Sister has heard rumors from fellow disciples that I am indeed doing some small business of purchasing small pieces. Nine out of ten disciples of the Lishan Immortal Sect come to me to exchange for spirit stones."

Luan Qingyu's expression was tangled, and she looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated, as if she was ashamed to speak.

Seeing her like this, Wen Rui said gently, "Junior Sister Luan, there is no need to be so polite. You and I are both disciples of Jiejiao. If you have any difficulties, just speak directly."

The green-clothed girl frowned and looked at Wen Rui, her eyes full of vigilance, and she was obviously full of distrust of Wen Rui.

Wen Rui was not too surprised. He had always been a very well-known person in the Lishan Immortal Sect. Even though they had never met before and had never exploited her hair, eggs and other small body parts, three people can make a tiger. With such a bad reputation, it was not easy to win the trust of the junior sister Luan in front of him.

Wen Rui was not a gentleman who could remain calm in the face of temptation. He did this not out of morality, but of course after careful planning and deduction.

Firstly, from a realistic perspective, his mortal body had poor attributes except intelligence, and he was afraid of being squeezed dry or crushed to death by his junior sisters;

Secondly, he also needed to consider the attitude of the Lishan Old Mother. You know, this old fairy will join forces with several Bodhisattvas to play a real trap against the pilgrim team in the future, and make Brother Bajie feel like he is in heaven. Obviously, she hates the lust of those who seek the truth.

You have to hold the thigh of Lishan Laomu. Before escaping to Lishan Mountain Range, Wen Rui's survival faced severe tests. He was chased by many gods of the Western Zhou Dynasty for a hundred years. During this period, he was robbed and bullied by disciples of various sects of Chanjiao and Renjiao. He was so miserable that he couldn't even build a base to grow up.

It was not until he fled to Lishan that Wen Rui stood firm and saved his life. Behind him stood a Daluo Jinxian who was stranded in the human world. He felt a little confident to do his business.

Even though Lishan Laomu had some capitulationist tendencies and was unwilling to make great efforts to support the revival of Jiejiao, Wen Rui was full of gratitude to her.

You can't just stay with someone and mess with their granddaughter. You have to stick to this bottom line as a human being, otherwise you will be tied up and thrown out of Lishan like Zhu Bajie, and you will regret it.
