Chapter 564 Intelligence

Falling Star Pavilion

The setting sun shines on the lake surface and reflects the sky. The entire Star Lake forms a magnificent world, like a dream.

Li Muchan sat upright in the pavilion, with the tea cup in his hand suspended in mid-air. He turned to ask Leng Wushuang opposite: "Lake Master, everything has been cleared. The Lin family has either gathered a large number of people here, or they have stopped."

Leng Wushuang held a book in his hand and looked at it: "I heard that you are ruthless and have killed many masters of the Lin family."

Li Muchan nodded: "Since we are enemies, we cannot hold back. Killing one person will reduce the harm."

Leng Wushuang shook his head and disagreed: "It's a bit biased. Just give up your martial arts... Xia Wufeng is much more compassionate than you."

Li Muchan smiled bitterly and nodded: "Just be careful next time."

"Killing too many people will harm the peace of the world. You have also read Buddhist scriptures, so you should understand this." Leng Wushuang said.

Li Muchan smiled and said: "If I don't go to hell, who will?"

"You..." Leng Wushuang shook his head and moved the book in his hand forward: "Just take this Diamond Sutra and recite it every day before going to bed to get rid of your anger."

Li Muchan shook his head and did not reach out to take it: "Lake Master, I don't have any anger, I just see it through. There is no need for Buddhist scriptures."

Leng Wushuang stopped his hand, frowned slightly, and stared at him with clear eyes: "You have a strong spirit, and it is easier for hostility to breed. Once you are exposed to hostility, you will have inner demons. The further you go in practice, the harder it becomes.

Worry, you have to be on guard against it!"

Li Muchan smiled and said: "Don't worry, Lake Master, I understand."

"I hope so." Leng Wushuang didn't force himself, put down the book and said, "Even if your mission is completed, it's time to practice in seclusion."

Li Muchan shook his head: "What does the lake owner plan to do with the Lin family?"

"It's up to them." Leng Wushuang said: "If they stop, they will pretend that nothing happened. If they don't, they will be flooded."

Li Muchan smiled disapprovingly: "The Lake Master never planned to take the initiative?"

Leng Wushuang said: "It is better to do less than to do more. Practicing well is the right thing to do."

Li Muchan looked at her for a few times and shook his head.

"What?" Leng Wushuang was swept around by his eyes, but he was not shy and smiled faintly: "Do you think I am too passive and conservative?"

Li Muchan nodded: "As the leader of a sect, such an idea is not feasible. People living in the world are like animals in the woods. The weak eat the strong. If you don't eat others, others will eat you."

Leng Wushuang smiled faintly and shook his head: "That's right, but have you ever seen a lion move around all day long?"

Li Muchan sighed: "Even a lion, if it doesn't move all day long, will be regarded as strong on the outside but weak on the inside, and will have no fear."

Leng Wushuang smiled: "Well, you are right."

*************************************************

Li Muchan hurriedly said: "Lord of the Lake, we took the initiative this time to take over the Lin family, so as to give the world a little warning. Don't always think that our Xinghu Villa is in vain and has declined, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

Leng Wushuang said: "Take the initiative? What are your ideas?"

Li Muchan smiled and said: "I will first explore the reality and then adapt accordingly."

"Going to find out the truth again?" Leng Wushuang shook his head and showed a smile: "The last time you went to Baiyun City to find out the truth, you almost couldn't come back!"

There was a hint of a smile in her words, which was really rare for her to speak like this. She never joked with others, mostly just a few short sentences, concise and to the point.

Li Muchan chuckled a few times, his face not red, his heart not beating, and he said with a smile: "It was a mistake last time. I didn't expect the Lin family to be so unscrupulous and dare to chase me. It won't happen this time."

Leng Wushuang shook his head: "I'll send someone else there."

Li Muchan said hurriedly: "Master of the lake, if you don't bother the two masters about anything, I'd better run over!"

Leng Wushuang looked at him a few times, seemingly hesitant.

Li Muchan hurriedly stepped aside and said: "Lake Master, do we have someone in the lake who specializes in intelligence?"

"Yes, yes." Leng Wushuang nodded: "On the Star Observation Peak."

Li Muchan said: "Do you have information about the Lin family?"

"Yes." Leng Wushuang nodded and said, "There are thirty-six small courtyards outside. One of the tasks of each small courtyard is to collect intelligence. Although we are hidden in the world, we cannot know anything."

"It's okay, it's okay." Li Muchan was overjoyed.

Looking at Huli's attitude, I would have thought that he was really isolated from the world and ignored worldly affairs. It would be very bad if that happened. It is important to have strong force, but if the information is not good, you will definitely suffer.

Leng Wushuang said: "Do you want to see the Lin family's information?"

Li Muchan nodded: "Yes."

Leng Wushuang thought for a while and said loudly: "Xiaoya."

"Yes, Lake Master." A girl in black floated out of the waterside pavilion. She had a beautiful appearance and a calm temperament, similar to He Ruoshui. She stood at the threshold and looked at Leng Wushuang calmly.

Leng Wushuang said: "Get my jade token."

"Yes." The girl in black responded, twisted in, then turned out, holding a round jade plaque as big as a palm and coming closer, her hands raised to Leng Wushuang.

Leng Wushuang took it and handed it to Li Muchan: "This is the lake master's order. With this order, you can enter the Star Observation Peak."

Li Muchan hesitated for a moment and took it slowly. He felt that this palm-sized jade plaque was particularly heavy. The jade was hard, green and crystal clear, and there seemed to be glimmering light circulating inside.

There is a pattern engraved on the front, which looks like a star lake. There is a boat on the lake, and a person is standing on the bow holding a sword. The robe is fluttering and the curve is vague. At first glance, it is a woman.

On the back are written the two characters "Xinghu", showing a majestic and heroic spirit in Juan's beauty.

***************************************************

Li Muchan touched these two words and exclaimed: "Good words!"

"This is the Lake Lord's order passed down from generation to generation. Don't lose it. Only after taking this can you enter the Star Observation Peak." Leng Wushuang said lightly.

Li Muchan nodded solemnly and stroked the hard jade plaque. A slight coolness spread through his palms to his heart. It seemed that this jade plaque had the effect of calming the mind.

For those who practice martial arts, this jade tablet is a treasure. It calms the mind, can quickly enter samadhi, increases the efficiency of martial arts, and can also prevent people from going crazy.

When practicing Qi, if you focus too hard, the Qi will become extremely hot, which is harmful to the body. Once your mind wanders, you are in danger of losing control and all your internal organs will be burned.

With this jade medal, it can prevent such a situation from happening. It is a rare treasure, especially for people with advanced martial arts skills.

If your martial arts skills are low, it will be difficult to escape from fire and become a demon. There is no fire to escape from and no demon to enter. When you practice to a high level, the fire will become stronger and the demons will become stronger. If you are not careful, your life will be in danger.

He didn't expect Leng Wushuang to have such trust in him. He would see him off at the Lake Lord's command, and he would enter and leave the Star Observation Peak at will without the slightest hint of caution.

Such trust made him feel a little guilty, which made him more determined to get rid of the Lin family.

He put the jade tablet into his arms, raised his head and said with a smile: "Lord of the Lake, I will take good care of it."

"Return it to me after you get off Star Observation Peak." Leng Wushuang said.

Li Muchan smiled and said, "That's natural."

Leng Wushuang said: "If you practice qi in seclusion, you still have to take this with you...the cultivation of the third qi is a day's work. The next two qi are more difficult and more complicated, and you need the help of this jade tablet."

Li Muchan smiled: "Yes, it is indeed difficult to cultivate the third qi. I have tried many times but it still doesn't work. I don't dare to practice it forcefully. I still need the lake master to protect me."

Leng Wushuang said: "Well, when Lin's family affairs are over, you will go into seclusion. You can't delay...the deeper your cultivation is, the harder it will be to cultivate the third qi. One point will make it ten points harder. Okay, let's go!"

Li Muchan stood up, hugged his fists, and with a slight tap, his body floated down to the lake. He walked leisurely on the lake water, took a few steps to the trestle, and flew directly up the mountain.

He had excellent light skills and climbed up and down the mountain several times. Then he came to a cliff and saw Xia Wufeng standing in front of the cliff practicing his sword. The light of the sword was slow, like a row of swords slowly moving.

Hearing the sound of clothes fluttering, he turned around and looked over, sheathed his sword and said with a smile: "I went to see the lake master. Are you going to be criticized?"

Li Muchan smiled and said: "Senior Brother Xia, how can I end up well if you complain?"

Xia Wufeng chuckled and said: "You brat, I can't help you, so I have to ask the lake owner to tell you. How about you repent?"

"Yes, I was almost punished by the Lake Master to recite Buddhist scriptures." Li Muchan shook his head and smiled bitterly, then inquired about the location of Stargazing Peak and asked Xia Wufeng to lead the way.

***********************

Xia Wufeng smiled and said: "Good boy, do you want to go to Stargazing Peak?"

Li Muchan nodded: "I want to see the Lin family's information. I heard that there is one at Stargazing Peak."

"There is all the information on Stargazing Peak. Come on, I will take you there!" Xia Wufeng said.

"Isn't Stargazing Peak heavily guarded?" Li Muchan asked.

Xia Wufeng shook his head: "It's not so strict, but ordinary people can't enter."

"Why is this?" Li Muchan asked.

Xia Wufeng said: "I am afraid that I will disturb my mind and have no intention of practicing. There is a lot of information in it, and it is so diverse that once I start looking at it, I won't be able to take it out."

Li Muchan nodded clearly and stayed here. Although it was peaceful and leisurely, the colorful world outside was also easily fascinating. This information was like the newspapers of later generations, and it was easy to become fascinated.

"Let's go." Xia Wufeng sheathed her sword and floated up the mountain.

The two climbed over this mountain peak, and then climbed over two more peaks, and came to a towering peak. There was a palace built on the mountain, with about five or six rooms, which looked very grand.

The five or six palaces are like five or six eagles soaring in the sky, with a strong momentum.

When the two came to the steps in front of the palace due north, an old man suddenly floated out in front of the palace. He was as light as a cotton ball and fell on the steps, looking down at the two of them.
