A knock on the door sounded.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Who"

Bai Lian pulled open the door, and at first she only saw a pair of white eyes.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

She blinked, and struggled out from the white. "Elder Two, what brings you here"

“May an old man not visit and greet the Holy Maiden if he has nothing to do” Elder Two smiled, the smile on his withered face should have been kind, but because only the whites of his eyes remained, it looked quite eerie: “The Holy Maiden’s cultivation has advanced considerably, truly a blessing for our Bai Gu Dao.”

"Where Elder, you are the pillar of jade and white for our sect, the purple gold bridge across the sea."

"Ho ho ho. Don't you intend to let old man in for a sit"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“This...” Bai Lian looked displeased: “After all, I’m a girl, it wouldn’t be convenient, would it”

>

“As an elder, I have watched the Saintess grow up since she was a child. You are like my own daughter to me. Is there anything that would be inconvenient” The Second Elder said as he squeezed into the room.

He looked her up and down, feigning indifference as he asked, "Why is the Holy Maiden wearing night veil in her own room within the temple"

Bai Lian blinked her eyes: "Born with beauty, one has to hide one's brilliance."

"Ha ha ha..." Er Chang's laughter suddenly stopped: "Ouyang has returned, I can smell him."

“This is good news! It wasn't in vain that we put in so much effort and sacrificed so many undercover agents to protect him along the way. Why hasn't the Grand Elder shown himself yet”

Who could possibly guess what he's thinking

You'd be surprised, I wouldn't know.

"Is it that you don't know, or don't want to know"

"There's no need for others to know," Bai Lianjiao giggled. "Matters within the sect are best left to the elders to decide. I shall simply wait for news."

Elder Two took a long look at her, then got up and walked out.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

As she stepped out of the door, she suddenly stopped. "Why is the Saintess so agreeable today"

Bai Lian smiled sweetly, "What are you saying When have I ever been unwilling to speak my mind If I occasionally get a bit temperamental, it's all for the sake of our sect's important matters, isn't it"

Elder Two finally left, and the oppressive feeling that had filled the room seemed to be cut off by the door.

“Perhaps this is the final test.”

Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate. I'm ready!

Bai Lian whispered softly.

She sat quietly for a while, confirming that no one would come to disturb her. Only then did she put down a chessboard, open the wardrobe, and pull out Jiang Wang, who had her eyes closed tightly, throwing her onto the bed.

This is a test.

At this moment, Jiang Wang was under the seal of the five senses. This was the only way to avoid those eyes that remained only white.

The White Lotus Seal, unsealing the Five Sensory Bindings.

Jiang Wang suddenly stood up, looked at Bai Lian, and held his sword without speaking.

Although he was in a state of five senses seal, unable to hear the conversation between Bai Lian and the Second Elder, by emptying his five senses and calming his mind, he was also repeatedly thinking about today's events.

"Ask me anything, go ahead." Bai Lian walked to the table and sat down.

"You saved me again." Jiang Wang's voice was a little strained.

Bai Lian smiled: "It's nothing to mention."

“This is the lair of the Bai Gu Dao. Are you from the Bai Gu Dao” Jiang Wang asked.

"We are all people of the Taoist tradition." Bai Lian said.

He knew arguing with her about whether Bai Gu Dao belonged to the orthodox line of Taoism was pointless. Jiang Wang repeated, "All I ask is, are you from Bai Gu Dao"

"It wasn't me." Bai Lian extended her jade finger and pointed at Jiang Wang: "It was us."

"What does it mean"

"I wouldn't want to tell you this so soon, because your 'transformation' is not yet complete." Bai Lian sighed and asked, "But since you're here today, you won't rest until you get an answer, will you"

Jiang Wang did not answer her question, but asked instead, “So today Fang He Ling came to Niutoushan, is it a trap Who is it targeting”

The White Bone Messenger's casual move wasn't aimed at anyone in particular. But tonight, whoever followed Fang Hualing would die here. We're abandoning this place anyway. You and that secret agent from the Criminal Investigation Department just happened to be here.

The Bai Gu Dao will soon leave Niutoushan.

Jiang Wang keenly grasped this information, but he put it aside. He asked in turn: "What does metamorphosis mean What do you mean by 'we'"

The white bone lotus on your back, the flesh and soul return technique you suddenly mastered... Aren't these enough to make you think

“You always seem to know so much about me, perhaps all this is part of your plan. The white bone lotus might have been tattooed on me while I was unconscious, or maybe the flesh-born soul return technique you gave me through some means… I can’t possibly be connected to the White Bone Dao!”

“As for modifying memories, that’s beyond my capabilities,” Bai Lian suddenly laughed. “However, I have been keeping a close eye on you ever since you were a beggar...”

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

Jiang Wang was startled!

To escape Fang Peng's pursuit, he disguised himself as a beggar and barely survived at the Huizhen Temple. That was before his meridian had even opened. White Lotus had been observing him since then

Bailing quickly explained: “Back when you lot were staying at the True View Monastery, it was under our guidance that you made that choice.”

Her voice was soft: “Really, it’s quite a place, meaningful and chosen by the gods. Even back when Zuo Guanglie died in battle, I wondered, so many beggars died that day, why were you the only one who lived Could it be just a coincidence”

Why did you return to the Daoist Temple and make such rapid progress in your cultivation

You must have noticed it too, right

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

After opening your meridians, your cultivation speed will surpass that of ordinary people.

Most importantly, you can devour the Bai Gu Dao lineage. You can perfectly adapt to the Bai Gu Dao secret techniques. You will master the art of soul return through flesh! You are not ordinary, you are the son of Bai Gu Dao!

"Later, I realized that your appearance in the True View Temple was arranged by the Divine Lord."

"No, no!" Jiang Wang shook his head. He believed his cultivation came from the Taixu Illusionary Realm, and had nothing to do with the Bai Gu Daozi. But the Taixu Illusionary Realm was his biggest secret now, and he couldn't use it as proof.

“I'm afraid you say the wrong thing with your mouth, but cry secretly in your heart.”

"What kind of nonsense!" Jiang Wang took a step back: "I've said it before, I can never forgive what Bai Gu Dao did. And I will never conspire with you, we are not on the same side!"

That's because you haven't seen clearly the truth of this world, haven't thoroughly removed your hypocrisy, and haven't found your true self.

"I know exactly who I am, I don't need you to remind me." Jiang Wang tried his best to control his emotions, allowing himself to calm down and think.

"What do you mean by the White Bone Dao" he asked.

“This is a very precious thing, and I only have one. It can absorb the nutrients of the parasite to grow, and finally perfectly control the parasite. But I didn't expect you to devour it... So you see, the Dao Seed would naturally not work on the Dao Child!”

Jiang Wang looked at her coldly: "Have you ever tried to parasitize me"

Bai Lian’s rare gaze held a tinge of apology: “At that time, we weren't familiar with each other...

"I don't know you now, you make me feel very strange!" Jiang Wang said coldly: "Don't say any more! I absolutely refuse to believe that I am a White Bone Daoist. Even if it is true, I will never collude with you group of heartless beasts!"

Although it expressed determination, "even if" also implied hesitation.

Bai Lian wasn't eager to dwell on this point. Instead, she countered, "Is it more beastly to raise vicious beasts and disregard the lives of the common people Or is it more beastly to extract water spirit meridians to refine Kaimudan"

“You can’t shake my resolve with words!” Jiang Wang’s voice was resolute, as if such determination was barely enough to withstand the pressure he was enduring.

He breathed deeply, steadying himself. "Bai Lian, since our paths diverge, let us part ways. As I said, my life you saved, and now you can take it back."

Bai Lian's eyes were exceptionally beautiful, with a mix of anger and resentment, sparkling like autumn waves. She gazed at Jiang Wang with those eyes.

“How could I possibly kill you” she softened her voice, speaking in a gentle tone. “But, as long as you cooperate, I can erase your memories from tonight. Just pretend nothing happened. You’ll remember everything that occurred tonight only when you’re fully awakened.”

"Is this like putting your fingers in your ears and stealing a bell"

"No, it's just not the right time."

Bai Lian got up and leaned in. Before Jiang Wang could react, she pushed him onto the bed and sat down.

“Look into my eyes,” she said. “I don’t have the power to manipulate memories. I only use a secret technique to temporarily seal this small piece of memory, so you must let go of your mind and fully cooperate. If something goes wrong, at best you’ll suffer mental instability, at worst your soul will be scattered.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Jiang Wang knew deep down that this was the best option.

Tonight, he mistakenly entered Mount Niutou and stepped into the bandit's lair. He should have died a terrible death.

The White Lotus had masked his every move, already saving his life. But no matter what, he couldn't be allowed to take the secret of the White Bones Path back to Fenglin City.

But he would rather die than consort with the White Bones Dao.

Now he can postpone the choices he has to face and needn't die.

Jiang Wang opened her mind completely, allowing her consciousness to be enveloped by countless lotus petals.

He felt a warmth and embrace, along with fondness.

Then in this boundless sea of lotus petals, he saw a lotus bud drifting towards him.

>

It grew taller and taller until it was level with Jiang Wang's gaze.

Then the lotus bloomed, but at its very center was not a pistil nor a seed pod.

...but a black candle!
