Okay, Okay

"Senior, I heard that Fairy Lin was hurt by love, and her dao heart was damaged due to her love, so her cultivation dropped by two tiers! Is this true?"

Likewise, this Penguin Watch cultivator used his spirit power to amplify his voice, and asked the question, spreading it throughout the square.

For a moment, the square of nearly 10,000 people was silent at first, but whispers soon broke out, along with many exasperated voices.

"No man can resist the charms of a beautiful woman."

For cultivators, this was even more so. Wounds from love were difficult to heal. If Lin Qingwan indeed dropped by two tiers, even if it wasn't due to love wounds, these people could still speculate and write as they wished. At that time, even if it weren't true, some people would still believe it.

The problem was that the other sects couldn't do anything to these people yet. If they confronted them because of some public opinion, wouldn't they be confirming this instead?

"Brat! Why does my senior sister have to tell you why she dropped in cultivation?"

"We've already tolerated everything before, but now you're pushing the limits. What business is it of yours about my senior sister?"

"Does Penguin Watch have any ethics left?"

"Yes! Where are your elders! Are gossip news reporters so blatantly arrogant now!"

"Support Fairy Lin!"

"Apologize!"

"Yes, apologize!"

For a moment, many people in the square fought for Lin Qingwan, while Lin Qingwan still stood with her sword, her indifferent look without the slightest ripple.

Looking at the female elder of the Dragon Gate Sect again, upon closer inspection, one could surprisingly still find a smile gently rising at the corners of her mouth.

What was news? Real news was factual. What was gossip? It was to add details to the story, but gossip was a jumble of things.

This female elder of the Dragon Gate Sect knew the importance of news gossip, and even more so she knew the popularity of this disciple of her sect who was both strong and beautiful in Wutong Province.

If this person didn't ask, wouldn't someone else ask later on? Someone definitely would. Even if this question wasn't asked, wouldn't other people suspect that Lin Qingwan was harmed because of love? They definitely would.

In that case, it would be best to take the initiative to make things clear! Take the person who asked the question into one's own hands! Control the news yourself!

It was as Jiang Lin had said to himself at that time—gossip was a great discipline.

Obfuscation was indeed extremely crucial, but unfortunately, that intelligent disciple turned out to be a member of a demon sect.

What a pity.

Looking at this Penguin Watch cultivator that she spent five medium-grade spirit stones to find, in other words, her insider~

"This little fellow, I'm surprised it was you who questioned, so do you have a spirit measuring stone?"

"Of course!" This man took out a turquoise stone with a "serious" expression. "This stone can test any tier under the Uncut Jade Tier, so please test it with this stone tablet, Fairy Lin!"

"Good! This is the one!" The female elder "solemnly" agreed; this stone tablet had been tampered with, and even if the full force of the Immortal Abode Tier struck it, it would still show the Dragon Gate Tier.

The female elder transmitted with her Mind Lake a message. [Qingwan, don't worry. This sword was casually made. Don't worry. Elder has done a bit of trickery.]

Hearing the voice of the female elder, the girl beside her first froze, and then shook her head with a smile. Although the upturned corners of her mouth were well less than 5 degrees, those who were lucky enough to see it died from its beauty.

Looking at Lin Qingwan's relaxed expression, the female elder also sighed in relief. She was afraid that this little girl would be too rigid, and refuse to fake it.

Gently patting Lin Qingwan beside her, the female elder loudly said, "Qingwan, someone is questioning your tier, so please strike with your sword."

Lin Qingwan nodded as the man from the news agency tossed the spirit measuring stone high into the air.

Lin Qingwan held the turquoise longsword in her hand, and her slender hand swung lightly, generating a lightly scented breeze.

Bang!

A sword light flashed across, and the spirit measuring stone was turned into powder in the air, the clear sword intent drifted in the middle of the square.

"Nascent Soul Tier… first layer…"

The voice that floated out from the spirit measuring stone spread throughout the square.

"What! The first layer of Nascent Soul Tier! This…"

"This isn't dropping two tiers! It's clearly going up two tiers!"

"It seems that the rumors of being hurt by love are indeed false!"

"Obviously, it must be fake! She's still a goddess. How could she like someone else!"

"Then wouldn't Fairy Lin be among the top five of Wutong Province's younger generation?"

"I am certain that the promising talents roll will be renewed next time!"

Instantly, the plaza was thrown into a commotion as all the news cultivators froze.

[How is she Nascent Soul Tier? Wasn't it arranged for Dragon Gate Tier? I'm not paying any more money.]

The female elder hurriedly spoke to her insider through Mind Lake transmission.

[I don't know, either. I did set it up to be at Dragon Gate Tier…]

[You didn't arrange this?]

[Of course not, the fake test spirit stones of the Nascent Soul Tier are super expensive. I'm not willing to spend on that.]

[That means…]

The female elder looked at the beautiful woman who had long since sheathed her sword, but her sword intent was still overpowering, and her expression still indifferent.

She could only say that it was as expected of someone with a Holy Body! Ling Qingwan was terrifyingly talented!

***

The girl with the muli in the corner of the square asked, "Sister Sword Spirit, this Sister Lin…?"

"Not yet 20 years old but at Nascent Soul Tier first layer, a genius of geniuses, but fortunately not our enemy. Besides, Xueii does not need to lose heart, you were born with Supreme Bones, and you're only 16 years old. You won't be worse than her, but you also need to cultivate diligently. Do not slack off."

"Yes, Sister Sword Spirit!"

***

In the middle of the pavilion above the square of Black Tortoise City, two poised women stood together.

"This is the enchantress you mentioned, Yuni? If there are no accidents, there is a place in the top 10 for this little sister Lin in the future," the woman in the palace dress said with a smile while looking at the charming woman beside her, only to find that she kept looking at Lin Qingwan. "Hey, Yuni, are you listening to me? Yuni!"

After a long time, Jiang Yuni withdrew her gaze and patted her chest in relief. "Luckily, it's not as big as mine, legs as long as mine, and not as pretty as me. Sure enough, Xiao Lin will still like my type."

"…"

***

On the other side of the square, Jiang Lin, whose face was covered with fake skin, stood with Fang Chaoqun. Feeling the overwhelming sword intent, Jiang pulled a long look.

"Brother Jiang… Why did Fairy Lin break through a tier after you kissed her furiously?" Fang Chaoqun gulped. "Why don't you kiss me too, Brother Jiang…"

"Get the f*** out of here!"

Jiang Lin pushed away Fang Chaoqun, who came up to him.

'I didn't expect Senior Sister Lin to resolve the knot in her heart! And to break through two tiers in a row!'

Initially, if Senior Sister Lin broke through two tiers, Jiang Lin should have been happy. After all, Senior Sister Lin took good care of him.

'But… why do I have tears in the corners of my eyes…

'Some years from now, will my ashes really be scattered in the wind…'
