Chapter 151 Battle Under the Moonlight (Part Two)

"Superior!"

While Superior Huizhu battles the enemy, a few of apprentices of the Qingcheng Taoist Temple are watching in the yard. They saw that Lin Luoran jumped onto the roof and made a shameful sneak attack, but they didn't expect that Huizhu would stop Lin.

Young master An can't help shouting.

Though Lin is surprised, her attention is drawn by An's shouting. The woman in black giggles and says: "What a good-looking young Taoist!"

She throws the black lotus out, which expands against the wind and wraps An immediately. Before An does anything, he is trapped by the petals. By the time the lotus flies back to the woman's hand, it returns to the normal size. Young master An is nowhere to be found.

No one expected that the woman in black would change her target. Even Superior Huizhu who stopped Lin Luoran couldn't act quick enough to save his apprentice.

However, Lin Luoran is somehow relieved a bit. When Huizhu stopped her, she used to think that maybe he and the woman in black were in this together. Lin bears a lot of secrets and she is diffident about them. Now that the woman in black has captured young master An, Lin Luoran's suspicions disappear.

Still, why Huizhui stopped her?

The horsetail whisk of his has long since left her sword and come at the woman in black. Lin pays attention to Huizhu's expression and she sees nothing unusual — Huizhu must have an explanation for what he did. Lin Luoran will not make another attack before she understands the situation completely.

Seemingly, the woman in black came to revenge Zou Yaowei. However, why didn't she make the attack back when she was at Lin's villa? No one was on guard and she fascinated all of them. Wasn't that the perfect opportunity to kill them all?

It appears that the woman's relationship with the superior of Qingcheng Taoist Temple is special... Lin Luoran goes through her memory after she stepped on the path of cultivation. There is no way that she has done everything perfectly, but she is sure that she never shows off. If all of these, from Superior Huizhu's care for the Lin family to the battle under the moonlight, served the same purpose, the scam would be too huge to be true.

It should not be that. Lin Luoran grabs the Bright Sword. She hears Huizhu's serious voice, "You are still confused. Just let him go."

They do know each other!

The woman in black wipes off the blood on the corner of her mouth. She says enchantingly: "Let him go? This young Taoist has a nice level of cultivation. He will become a pretty good elixir after I refine him. Why should I let him go?"

Before Superior Huizhu says anything back, Lin Luoran almost vomits — she remembers that the woman said she wanted to discuss the Tao of Bolus. Turns out that the woman's Tao of Bolus is to make elixirs with human body?!

Huizhu sighs. Eight pieces of yellow paper fly out of his palm and rush at the woman in black.

This scene is so familiar. Lin Luoran remembers the yellow paper Wen Guanjing used to summon thunder during their first fight... Are these magic figures?

The woman in black clearly knows more. She immediately backs off, yet the eight pieces of yellow paper follow. There is nowhere for the woman to go. She puts the black lotus in front of her chest, and the glow of the lotus keeps the yellow paper three feet away!

"Figure circle! Old Huizhu, you have indeed made some progress these years!"

Figure circle! The memory bead White Fairy gave Lin never mentioned anything about magic circles or figures. Perhaps White Fairy herself wasn't good at these. However, Lin Luoran is very interested in Commander Qin's jade pendant which can protect its owner. Now, seeing that magic figure and circle can be combined, Lin Luoran's eyes are fixed on it.
