Longevity: Starting as a Sect Servant-Chapter 332 - 233: The True Scheme (Long - )

Li An was taken aback.

The Peak Master of the Dao Sect... He now understood that such a level was at least a Refining Void expert!

Shangguan Shengxian, truly formidable...

"You want to kill her, I remember. In the future, either she dies, or I live."

Xiang Yuntian said, "Let’s go!"

He left.

...

The ten-day open period of Profound Turtle Peak was coming to an end.

"Mr. Li,"

A clear and melodious voice sounded, and on this day, a familiar figure appeared.

Zhan Qingxuan.

In the past twenty-one years, although she didn’t come every year like Xiang Yuntian, she did come occasionally. Each time she looked for Li An, she was quite polite.

Li An was also quite attentive. Although this beloved daughter of the Dao Sect had been kind to him, he always felt something was off.

"Senior, you’re flattering me. Please just call me Li An."

Li An spoke respectfully.

Zhan Qingxuan was wearing a long white dress today, looking ethereal and quite cool. She smiled slightly and said:

"Alright, then I’ll call you Fellow Daoist Li."

She was holding a scroll of bamboo slips, saying: "This Array inheritance, there are some parts I can’t quite understand. Can Fellow Daoist Li guide me?"

Li An took it and had a look, finding that it was indeed the Demonic Array inheritance, which was written by Li An himself. However, after being selected and modified by the Dao Sect’s senior members, many harsh methods that could harm the heavenly order had been removed.

Li An immediately explained them one by one. However, Zhan Qingxuan seemed a bit absent-minded, her eyes wandered, while on the other side, Xu Wanshou was busy explaining to several other disciples.

"Besides, there’s another incomplete Array that I can’t quite grasp. Could Fellow Daoist Li help to consider it?"

Li An was explaining to her when suddenly he felt a light movement in his Dantian, and unexpectedly, the Heaven-Stealing Skill started to operate on its own. In his mind, Zhan Qingxuan’s voice sounded!

Li An’s eyelids twitched, almost jumping up in shock. He looked at Zhan Qingxuan incredulously, trying hard to control the tumult in his eyes!

What’s going on???

Zhan Qingxuan... also knows the Evil Skill?!

Moreover, she was using the Evil Skill to secretly communicate with Li An.

At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Li An’s mind...

"Fellow Daoist Li, is there something you don’t understand?"

Zhan Qingxuan smiled gently, pointing at the Array inheritance in Li An’s hand and asked.

Li An took a deep breath, maintaining calm, "No, let me continue explaining to you..."

He continued explaining to Zhan Qingxuan. Meanwhile, she quickly relayed much content to Li An, then asked in secret communication, "Remembered?"

While exchanging secret messages, she multitasked and asked, "Did I understand correctly, Fellow Daoist Li?"

Li An nodded.

Zhan Qingxuan showed a satisfied expression on her face, sending a secret message: "If you don’t understand, remember to consult the other experts here. By the way, don’t let Elder Xu Wanshou find out, otherwise, we might both face unexpected disaster."

After the secret message was finished, she smiled sweetly, "Fellow Daoist Li, until we meet again."

Saying this, she turned to leave.

As she left, Li An’s heart was filled with shock and doubt, like waves, one after another, unable to calm down for a long time.

...

Soon, Profound Turtle Peak closed again, returning to tranquility.

Li An returned to the Library, and the thoughts in his mind gradually cleared up.

Zhan Qingxuan unexpectedly knew the Heaven-Stealing Skill, which only meant two possibilities:

One, she was a successor of the Evil King like Evil Fourteen, but for unknown reasons, she had hidden in the Dao Sect.

Two, she wasn’t a successor of the Evil King, she’s just cultivated the Evil King Skill. After all, the Heaven-Stealing Skill of Evil Fourteen must have fallen into the hands of the Dao Sect’s senior members, and it’s possible that it was given to disciples to cultivate.

But what Zhan Qingxuan asked Li An to do was evidently suspicious.

She used the secret method of the Evil King to relay messages to Li An, and then asked Li An to pass them to the demonic and heretical bigwigs in the Scripture Repository—which at least proved several points.

First, she confirmed that Li An had cultivated the Evil King Skill, but Li An’s secret was only known to Xun Dongfang, Evil Fourteen, and others. She knew it too... which could only mean that Li An’s ability to cultivate the Heaven-Stealing Skill was the result of her initial conspiracy with Evil Fourteen and others.

Second, if she got the Evil King Skill from the sect’s high level, why would she need to hide? She dared not let Elder Xu Wanshou know what message she had conveyed to Li An.

Moreover, Li An always felt that Xun Dongfang and others had significant schemes.

Now everything is connected.

At this moment, Li An understood why Zhan Qingxuan had been so kind to him initially. She accepted his Top Grade Nascent Soul Pill and gave it back to her, and when she brought him here, she specifically instructed Xu Wanshou to take care of him...

From that time, Li An had already been chosen by her as a chess piece.

To be sent to the Scripture Repository, and presented to Evil Fourteen and others!

He was a tool, a tool for Zhan Qingxuan to communicate with Evil Fourteen and others.

After all, Zhan Qingxuan’s only chance to contact Evil Fourteen and others was on the open day of Profound Turtle Peak, but during the open day, the Dao Sect was very strict in monitoring to protect the disciples, and exchanges between parties were controlled. Ordinary secret messaging would be exposed!

But some secret methods of the Evil King could obviously bypass the intense monitoring of the Dao Sect, provided that both parties have cultivated the Heaven-Stealing Skill and resonated mutually to communicate, a method more complex and mysterious than silent secret talks.

Unfortunately, those like Evil Fourteen all have the seals of the Dao Sect’s might within them!

Even if Evil Fourteen met with Zhan Qingxuan, it would be useless. His internal Heaven-Stealing Skill couldn’t operate at all, and it would easily attract the attention of the might’s.
