Pei Xihe thought about it and made sure there was nothing missing.
She had just confronted Du Yeqing, and both of them used their means to seal off the space. In addition, she was born with psychic powers, and became even more sensitive after transforming into an innate being. Even if there were outsiders who could surpass her in cultivation and forcefully spy on her, she would not be unaware of anything. .
There should have been no mistakes before, so she looked calm, stopped in the mist, and looked at the person.
The aura revealed its true appearance from far to near.
The old man was dressed in simple black clothes. Only the bamboo stick in his hand seemed to be made of jade, and it was pleasantly green.
What a coincidence, it was the "Shuoli" Shangxian mentioned earlier, one of the academic officials of the Imperial Academy.
Pei Xihe didn't know the purpose of his visit, so he raised his hands and saluted, "I've seen Shuo Li, a scholar."
The information about Taixue conveyed by the fairy puppet naturally contains the information about the academic officers in the academy, including what they are good at and their reputation among the academicians. This way, you can choose whether to go and listen to the lectures.
It would be outrageous if Pei Xihe pretended not to know.
Shuoli stood there, looking like an old man in his fifties or sixties, with gray hair and beard, but full of energy, like a strong fire.
Hearing Pei Xihe's greetings, he hummed and raised his chin slightly.
"Zhao Fuxi, which world are you from? Who did you learn from?"
Pei Xihe probably knew it by heart, and said with a faint smile: "Returning to the academy, I was born in Wanhan Xiaoqian World, and I cannot tell you the name of my master."
When Na Shuoli heard this, he frowned and struck the bamboo stick violently in the void, causing ripples of green light.
"Bold! Do you know how culpable it is to lie about news and deceive academic officials?"
Pei Xihe's heart sneered, his face full of doubts, and a hint of shock.
"I wonder why the academic officer said this?"
"I have ascended from the lower world, and my jade medal of identity has passed the clear path. I have been recognized by the dynasty. How can I be cheating?"
The two characters "Da Qian" on the identity jade plaque are connected with the destiny of the dynasty, and coincide with heaven and earth. If the information is false, the two characters will not be engraved at all, and the jade plaque will disintegrate on the spot.
How rare is the 'Deception Talisman'? There are only two of these existences such as Emperor Ge, and it is difficult for even the Heavenly Lord to see through them, let alone Shuoli in this fairyland.
Pei Xihe's expression suddenly changed, showing some dissatisfaction.
"I don't know where I offended the Immortal. I admit that I have no falsehoods. Why do you want to taint my innocence out of thin air? If there is evidence, then you can arrest me and confront the mountain leader."
The master of Taixue is the head of the mountain. He is the only powerful person in the academy who has stepped into the heavenly realm. He has always ignored secular affairs, but he is the one who truly holds the authority.
Shuo Li's face froze, he put his fist to his lips and coughed twice.
If there was evidence, how could he deceive her here? And if such a trivial matter really comes to the head of the mountain, not to mention how the head of the mountain looks at him, even the old woman will have to peel off a layer of her own skin.
The loser does not lose the formation, he said sternly with an air of dignity.
"You really think that I can't see your sword skills. That old man Zhao Tianling has a close relationship with you. Your sword skills are the same. He was born in the Yiyuan Sword lineage. How could you come from Wan Han?" The small world ascends.”
Pei Xihe secretly thought, it seems that the so-called 'Zhao Tianling' is the real name of the master Xuanji Sword Immortal.
Her face became even more angry as she said: "The world's Taoism has the same origin, and it is common for a Taoism and magical power to be scattered in hundreds of thousands of small worlds. I didn't know who this Zhao Tianling was before this."
"It doesn't make sense for Shuo to be the academic official."
Of course, this was not a lie. The master only told her the title of Master, but not the real name. Of course, she did not know who the owner of this name was.
Pei Xihe's expression was sincere and did not seem to be fake. For a moment, Shuo Li doubted whether his guess was wrong and couldn't help but feel numb.
It was at this moment that a sharp scolding came.
"What are you doing here, you plagued old man?"
"You have windy ears, right? What did I tell you?"
The old woman came in a fierce manner. She was the Immortal Qiu Xue. She didn't leave any face to Shuo Li, and slapped him on the head, making him dizzy with stars in his eyes.
Then the old woman pinched Shuoli's ears and lifted them up. The originally gentle and compassionate face now contained anger.
"Ouch, it hurts, it hurts, be gentle."
Shuo Li was anxious and angry, knowing that he had lost all face in front of this junior, and his whole face turned red from his ears.
Qiu Xue then let go of her hand and looked at Pei Xihe, her anger turning into apology.
"I'm really sorry. This old guy is such a bastard that he keeps going back to life."
It is recorded in the Immortal Puppet that these two immortals are a Taoist couple with a deep relationship. After thinking about it, Pei Xihe made a decision and said.
"I have met Academic Officer Qiu Xue. I really don't know why Academic Officer Shuo Li came to tell me that I had lied about my identity. The sword moves I learned were acquired by chance. They are of a high grade. Naturally, I studied them painstakingly. I don't know why. Then 'Zhao Tianling' is involved?"
People's hearts are inevitably biased, and Pei Xihe didn't bet that Qiu Xue would truly abandon Shuo Li and favor herself, so she didn't comment on Shuo Li, only saying that she didn't know what was going on in her heart.
Qiuxue looked apologetic and replied.
"It's all because your sword skills resemble an old friend of ours named Zhao. We are both ascended monks, but you have different backgrounds. It seems to be a coincidence."
"This old guy didn't listen to my advice and wanted to deceive you. It's really his fault."
"In this way, if you have any needs or doubts in the future, you can come to me and ask for help. I will do my best."
Academic officials and bachelors, immortals and celestial beings, Pei Xihe can no longer criticize Shuo Li harshly now. His golden eyes turned away the cold light, and he cupped his hands and said: "The academic official's words are serious."
"Since nothing happens, the students will leave first."
The immortal face on the autumn snow looks like an old woman, but her eyes are as clear and pure as ice and snow.
She said with a smile in her eyes: "Just leave on your own."
Then she seemed to suddenly remember something, and she continued.
"In recent years, the two major forces in the Tianguang Heavenly Domain, the Dynasty and Anxu Paradise, will have trials. You are very talented. If you are interested in this, you can use the Immortal Puppet to pay more attention."
"The 'Thousand Dragons Flying Island' where it is located is rumored to be the place where the real dragon died. There is a powerful calculation. The luck and essence and blood it carries will gradually give birth to dragon chicks over thousands of years. Finally, the dragon's blood can be baptized into the body. It will be of extraordinary benefit to you and other immortals.”
Pei Xihe nodded in agreement, cupped his hands and said goodbye.
"Thank you, Academician Qiu Xue, for informing me, so I can take the first step."
She jumped away and turned into a ray of golden light, leaving no trace.
Shuo Li stood beside Qiu Xue and said with a stern expression: "Old woman."
Qiu Xue snorted, looked at Pei Xihe's leaving figure, and said softly: "So what if she is really the successor of Zhao Tianling? Since she is hiding it, she has scruples and wants you to tear her face off? She is nothing but In the realm of heaven, what will happen if you know what happened back then?"
"The blessed land of peace and happiness."
She silently muttered these four words between her lips and teeth, and thought to herself, that's it, this is the most they can do.
…
Pei Xihe returned to the cave, inspired the isolation formation, and sat cross-legged on the jade bed.
Sixty-sixty-eight's previous memories had been erased by Du Yeqing, and the secret method of modifying the magic circle did not affect his current operation. He was standing beside her quietly, listening to her instructions.
Pei Xihe took out the Mengtian Xuanmian from the Yin Palace, and after being forged with real fire, he had completely removed the marks left by Du Yepan, and she had imprinted her own mark on it.
With her strong mana, she poured into it and swarmed towards the bird-like weapon spirit in it like an overwhelming force. It took about half an hour to subdue it and get more information about it.
Pei Xihe looked at his hand. The black and white beads had turned into a mask, shrouded in gray light, making it difficult to see the true appearance.
She suddenly felt something.
Putting on a mask, but actually taking it off? Unleash your true self.
The main reason for the past few days was that I was not used to it. I tended to sleep a lot. I got up at 7 o'clock. I came back from driving practice in the morning, had lunch and then went to bed. I could sleep until dinner in the evening and didn't get up early. It's been a long time since I got up early. Because I usually coded in the afternoon before, it was basically the first update. Now that my schedule has basically been adjusted, the second update will be normal, so don’t worry.
