In Anyang Prefecture, west of the city, in a seemingly inconspicuous alley, with the sound of rolling wheels, a carriage slowly drove in from the entrance of the alley.
At dusk, in the twilight, the steed was pure white like snow, and the curtains of the carriage were not magnificent, but had an elegant and graceful beauty. The fine gauze curtain was half see through, faintly revealing the graceful outline of a woman, becoming truly picturesque. With just one glance, one couldn’t help but desire to glimpse her true face.
She wore a yellow dress that floated to the ground, with a jade flute hanging from her waist that remained motionless. The entire body was pure and transparent, as if it had been taken from a jade masterpiece, and the surface seemed to gleam with a turquoise light. Even the fingers resting on the jade flute were reflected like flawless porcelain.
On both sides of the alley, there were more than a dozen shops scattered here and there. The shopkeepers, waiters, and even the customers sitting in the shop could not help but be attracted by this carriage.
Under the scrutiny of everyone, the slowly moving carriage finally stopped at the door of a pastry shop.
A woman slowly descended from the carriage.
She stands tall and graceful, with hair like beautiful clouds. Her silhouette can evoke one’s infinite imagination into being, setting off the dusk of the setting sun in an ethereal and pleasant manner. It was as if a subtle vitality had suddenly emerged from the dim world.
Many people around were already staring in reverie. When they saw the woman didn’t hesitate to enter the pastry shop. Several young people sitting in the opposite teahouse almost lost their composure and chased after them. Fortunately, they finally woke up and took a few strong sips of tea, which prevented them from making a fool of themselves in public.
A clever server quickly came over and poured tea for these young heroes. The server hesitated to speak, then as if unable to suppress his curiosity at last, he spoke up and asked. “What a fairy-like figure! I am unlearned with few talents so I can’t think of any words to describe it. Young heroes, you must ber very knowledgeable, do you know who this fairy is? Please shed some insight to this humble one.”
His words made several people take a serious look at him. The server in this shop looks young, around, sixteen or seventeen years old. He has a handsome appearance, and he speaks and does things cleverly, so he doesn’t make people feel annoyed.
At present, a young master sneered and said, “What do you know? This is the Holy saint of Xuanyue Sect! It’s not too much to say that a true fairy has descended to earth!”
The server took a cold breath and said, “Xuanyue Sect?”
“That’s right, she’s the holy saint of Xuanyue Sect.”
This server is very good at socialising, and immediately showed a burst of amazement. He served tea to a few people, flattering them, and occasionally asked questions in that ignorant and curious tone, or looked up at these young masters with admiration. Under his actions, the few of them were excited and almost revealed everything they knew.
After digging out what he wanted to know from these people, the server turned around and returned to the kitchen, quietly observing the movement of the pastry shop through the window. There was a hint of worry and anxiety on his handsome face.

This person is Fang Yunxiao.
These days, there have been many rumours in the Jianghu, and Fang Yunxiao has also learned that Chi gonzi, who he is grateful to, is actually young master Yan of the escort bureau who survived by chance. He has also stolen the “Immortal Stone” of enlightenment, and is now using it as a bargaining chip to seek revenge from all over the world.
To be honest, Fang Yunxiao doesn’t quite believe it.
However, it doesn’t matter whether he believes it or not, what matters is that others believe it. As more and more experts gathered near this pastry shop, and the inn’s in Anyang were filled with wandering Jianghu people, Fang Yunxiao felt anxious.
He has been wandering the streets for a long time and also knows some tricks. Nowadays, Chi gongzi is only temporarily delaying time and stabilising all parties on the condition of revenge, but as time goes on, others will inevitably become impatient, and there will be danger at that time.
“I don’t know what Chi gongzi’s plan is, but can he extract himself smoothly?” Looking at the shop across the window, Fang Yunxiao was filled with confusion. One moment, he was worried about Chi gongzi, and the next moment, he remembered the Xuanyue Sect’s Saint who he had just caught a glimpse of.
A noble and upright sect like Xuanyue Sect should abide by the rules. This holy saint, is elegant and graceful, which makes people have a good impression at first sight. Perhaps she is precisely Chi Gongzi’s way out.
A small courtyard, an old tree, and a stone table.
Yuan Buwei, who Fang Yunxiao was thinking about, had met the rumoured intelligent and upright Zhou Shenyu. She was standing opposite him.
This is a young girl who exudes an ethereal aura all over her body. Between the beautiful eyebrows, her eyes are as clear as a spring, giving people a sense of vitality and wittiness.
So much so that against the slanted setting sun, the old withered trees seem as if they all came alive again.
Seeing her for the first time, Yuan Buwei couldn’t help praising. “Mingyue is truly a divine skill. I have observed that if there are no mistakes in your technique, you will have a bright moon in your heart in just a few years, that can reflect everything in your heart.”
What Yuan Buwei didn’t mention is that it is rumoured in the Jianghu that after reaching the highest level of cultivation in the Mingyue technique, one will enter the highest realm.
In the original plot, she naturally didn’t achieve it. First, there is the villain Chi Jianxue’s infatuation in the beginning, and then there is the protagonist Fang Yunxiao, who is born with luck. After a series of entanglements, this holy saint is constantly implicated in the world of mortals. How can she concentrate with an empty and clear heart?
Yi Tinglan smiled and said, “Young master Yan of the escort bureau is over praising me. Whether this one can reach the end of the technique is dependent on fate.”
Her eyes, like autumn water, fixed on Yuan Buwei with curiosity and inquisitiveness: “Young master Yan of the escort bureau, saw at a glance Tinglan’s state of cultivation. Could it be that this is also the skill of the immortal stone?”

If anyone were to be stared at by such a beautiful girl with such curious eyes, they would probably be unable to resist pouring out everything and breaking it into pieces to tell her one by one, and ‘Young master Yan of the escort bureau’ seemed no exception.
He was first stunned, then readily nodded and admitted, like every other chivalrous young hero trying to be attentive in front of others, continuing, “This method is just one of the many benefits of the Immortal Stone. Since Miss Yi is interested, I will explain it in detail.”
Yi Tinglan immediately showed a look of anticipation and listening attentively, “Young master Yan, please tell me.”
Yuan Buwei nodded. Using a seemingly calm and composed tone that exudes a hint of pride, he eloquently described the various effects of the immortal stone. Completely looking like an admirer who is crazyily showcasing their bargaining chips in front of their goddess. Thanks to his brain dead fans from the previous world who provided him with ready-made materials to imitate.
Yi Tinglan always had a light smile on her face, like a serene orchid in an empty valley. But the curiosity, anticipation, and interest that occasionally appeared that were noticed by the young man made his tone more and more excited, and he even revealed the effects of the immortal stone he had explored thoroughly.
This made Yi Tinglan’s eyes light up.
Fortunately, the ‘Young master Yan of the escort bureau’ seemed to remember his sense of propriety. When the explanation came to the end, he suddenly closed his mouth and seemed to wake up from the beauty. In the end, he did not reveal the key to using the immortal stone.
Even if Yi Tinglan asked, he quickly shook his head and was steadfast on one condition: “This one has made a vow, unless someone can avenge my family, this one will never reveal this secret.”
The twilight had already fallen, and the moonlight fell on the girl’s shoulders. She frowned slightly, and sighed softly. Suddenly, the bright moonlight seemed to be stained with countless melancholy.
