Starting My Cultivation With Time Management

Chapter 431: Chapter 64: The Script is Already Arranged Chapter 431: Chapter 64: The Script is Already Arranged “Ah Jing!

Didn’t you say that your Mirror Flower Water Moon Illusion Technique was impossible to see through?” Ling Yunpo anxiously asked.

“I don’t know either!” Kunlun Mirror said in a panic, “I’m sure I didn’t reveal any flaws!”
Heaven above can testify, even though Kunlun Mirror often disliked Chen Guanshui’s shamelessness and occasionally would remove the illusion to let him reveal his true self in front of the girls… but that was only ever aimed at the girls near his character setting.

For instance, when Ling Yunpo encountered Shi Liuli, Kunlun Mirror would never remove the illusion.

Otherwise, if Shi Liuli recognized Ling Yunpo and Luo Yan as the same person, their espionage play would be over, and the plans for the Heaven-Mending Stone would come to naught.

“Wrong.” Green Duckweed Sword suddenly said, “I think she might not have spotted any flaw, just a gut feeling.”
“But this gut feeling is too absurd,” Ling Yunpo muttered to himself, but aloud he said.

“Seen before?

Fellow Daoist Shi must be mistaken.”
“Fellow Daoist Ling, think about it carefully,” Shi Liuli insisted, “I…”
Before she could finish, An Zhisu interrupted her.

“Fellow Daoist Shi, my Junior Brother and I always lead a secluded life on Qingluo Peak in Shushan.

May I ask if Fellow Daoist Shi has ever been to Shushan?”

“I have not,” Shi Liuli frowned as she spoke, “but…”
“My Junior Brother has also never been to Penglai Immortal Island,” An Zhisu continued, “If Fellow Daoist Shi insists that you and my Junior Brother are old acquaintances, could you say where you’ve met?”
“There’s no need to fuss over such details,” Linghu Chu smoothed things over, “Whether we knew each other before or not, we’ll be acquainted from now on.”
Shi Liuli came here to clarify why Ling Yunpo gave her a sense of familiarity; how could she let Linghu Chu let her off so easily?

Just as she was about to press on, regardless of everything else, she suddenly realized another problem.

Why do I just ask a question, and that An Zhisu opposite acts like she sees me as an enemy?

Ah!

Could it be that she misunderstands, thinking I fancy her Junior Brother Ling Yunpo that’s why I find excuses to strike up a conversation with him?

At this thought, Miss Shi suddenly felt even more depressed.

She was here merely to satisfy her curiosity, not to stir up scandals.

Moreover, Ling Yunpo was not to her taste, and it would be even worse if others misunderstood because of such rumors.

With a silent sigh in her heart, Shi Liuli forced a smile and said,
“Then, it seems I was mistaken.

But as Chief Disciple said, though we were strangers before, now we’ve met.”
Having said that, she stepped back behind Linghu Chu and fell silent.

Linghu Chu exchanged a few more pleasantries with the two, then took Shi Liuli and left.

After they departed, An Zhisu turned to Sima Changyan with a surly tone.

“Junior Brother Sima, what is this all about?

I wasn’t aware that your peak had the custom of match-making.”
Sima Changyan, clearly aware of An Zhisu’s temperament, explained with a smile,
“Senior Sister An, the real Hengqiu is a renowned Sword-Casting Master.

If we can form a good relationship with him, it will bring many benefits to our Shushan.”
“What benefits?” An Zhisu said coldly, “The benefits of Core Formation, or those of Nascent Soul Transformation?

The benefits of swordsmanship, or those of cultivation?”
Sima Changyan had no answer for her, so he could only apologize to Ling Yunpo with a smile, then excused himself and left.

Ling Yunpo stood beside them speechless, thinking that Senior Sister An’s cold and unyielding temperament was probably cemented by Su Jian, which was really difficult to change.

Under normal circumstances, he would take the time to advise his Senior Sister not to speak so bluntly and offend people.

But now, on the one hand, it was obvious that his Senior Sister was jealous, and any attempt to persuade her would surely backfire; on the other hand, he was also annoyed with Sima Changyan for trying to suck up to Linghu Chu, which inadvertently brought Miss Shi here, giving him a scare, so he chose to remain silent.

An Zhisu, realizing she spoke out of turn, felt embarrassed to bring it up again and sullenly returned to the riverbank, hugging her knees and squatting down by the stove.

Ling Yunpo also picked up his fishing rod again, only to find that the bait had been eaten, so he set about making a new ball of dough.

Before he had kneaded a few times, he suddenly heard Lin Duanshan’s voice from afar:
“Senior Sister An, Brother Lin!”
Ling Yunpo sighed, turned around, and saw Lin Duanshan flying towards them on his sword, quickly landing on the ground, and hurriedly said,
“That Qiu Changtian, he truly is remarkable!”
Senior Sister An had already been in a terrible mood because of Shi Liuli, and when she heard Lin Duanshan mention “Qiu Changtian,” her eyebrows raised, and a fierce aura surfaced as she said coldly,
“Brother Lin, don’t make a fuss over nothing.

???G?.??

Explain yourself clearly.”
Lin Duanshan was about to speak when he noticed An Zhisu’s displeasure and, recalling her attitude towards Qiu Changtian, immediately put on a smile and said,
“It’s nothing serious.

It’s just that Qiu Changtian used the Tianyuan Yiqi Sword, and its power is truly astonishing.

But when it comes to swordsmanship, he’s far behind Brother Ling…

Oh, are you two fishing and cooking wine here?

I’ve come specifically to ask for a drink.”
Hearing Lin Duanshan stop prattling on about how amazing Qiu Changtian was and praising her junior brother instead, An Zhisu’s face instantly cleared up, and she said with a smile,
“A cup of rice wine won’t hurt.

The cups are over there.

Help yourself.”
Lin Duanshan laughed, took a cup, poured himself a drink, and said to Ling Yunpo,
“Brother Ling, come on, let’s have a few drinks together.”
Knowing that Lin Duanshan wanted to speak with him, Ling Yunpo let Lin Duanshan pull him to the other side of the lake.

After downing a cup of wine, he listened as Lin Duanshan spoke earnestly,
“Brother Ling, the strength of that Qiu Changtian is too astonishing.

I fear he is the greatest contender for the top spot in the White Jade Capital competition against Senior Sister An!”
Ling Yunpo asked in surprise,
“How so?”
“True Yuan strength,” Lin Duanshan replied.

“That Qiu Changtian, as one with Daoist Heart Clarity, possesses an extremely vigorous True Yuan strength.

Even compared to a Golden Core True Person, he doesn’t fall short!”
“Now that he has acquired the Tianyuan Yiqi Sword, with its incredibly fast speed and tremendous force, it’s best suited to exploit Qiu Changtian’s True Yuan advantage.”
“In two battles, his enemies simply couldn’t withstand a single blow from him…

A classic case of cultivation realm overwhelming.”
“I see,” Ling Yunpo mused, “This won’t be easy to deal with.”
“Isn’t that the truth?” Lin Duanshan replied with a bitter smile, “Not to mention he has the Five Thunder True Law at his side, as well as other trump cards we don’t know about.”
“Indeed,” Ling Yunpo expressed his strong agreement.

My trump cards as Chief Qiu are too many to count!

“Anyway, both you and Senior Sister An be careful,” Lin Duanshan added in his final note of caution.

He knew that if he told Senior Sister An directly, An Zhisu certainly wouldn’t take it to heart and might even scold him for being alarmist.

Thus, he could only indirectly drop hints to Ling Yunpo.

Ling Yunpo tacitly understood and couldn’t believe how formidable his future self would be.

No choice, though it’s hard to give up, to maintain the invincible character setting, Qiu Changtian must defeat An Zhisu and claim the top place in the White Jade Capital competition!

What follows in the script is that both Ling Yunpo and Senior Sister An lose to Qiu Changtian in the competition.

Qiu Changtian takes first place in the competition, maintaining the invincible character setting; Ling Yunpo, ashamed but inspired, maintains the unyielding character setting.

Senior Sister An and her likewise defeated junior brother develop a bond through shared sentiment; the affection between the sister and brother disciples soars, and they join forces to cultivate, striving together to defeat Qiu Changtian!
