Eternal Life through Drawing Lots

Chapter 337: Chapter 329: We Meet Like Old Friends

Yu Zither Immortal had arrived.

The day after she submitted her formal request for a meeting, Yu Zither Immortal took the initiative to visit Fang Yang under the pretext of discussing the combat dissolution of the Mansion Master of the Two Poles Villa.

This came as a bit of a surprise to Fang Yang.

If Sang Xiaowan hadn’t personally brought her in, Fang Yang would have thought someone was playing a joke on him.

Yu Zither Immortal was tall and slender, dressed in an elegant purple palace gown.

She had a cascade of jet-black hair that fell to her waist.

Her eyelashes were long and thick. Her eyes were like the moon reflected in a well—calm, yet hinting at a reserved spirituality and mystery.

Her beauty was breathtaking, with skin as flawless as jade and white as snow.

’She appears gentle and elegant, but she’s proud deep down. A classic iron fist in a velvet glove.’

This was Fang Yang’s first impression of her.

I sized her up, and she sized me up in return.

As for Yu Zither Immortal, when she saw Fang Yang, her eyes lit up despite her worldly experience.

It wasn’t just his handsome features, but the heroic and imposing aura he now possessed—an ambition that seemed vast enough to devour the world.

’He’s said to be methodical, always planning his moves in advance. Seeing him today, I can tell it’s true. But... it feels like he’s hiding something.’ Yu Zither Immortal suppressed her nascent suspicions.

Afterward, with Sang Xiaowan as a chaperone, the two began to exchange pleasantries.

Surprisingly, they found they had an instant rapport, their conversation flowing effortlessly.

Though it was their first time meeting, it felt less like an introduction and more like a reunion of old friends.

"Wow~"

Sang Xiaowan exclaimed in amazement.

She clamped her hands over her eyes, peeking through a tiny slit between her fingers.

As Fang Yang and Yu Zither Immortal watched, she exclaimed in amazement, "Brother Yang, your light can perfectly contain the Fairy Sister’s light, too!"

As for why she said "too"...

It was because Sang Xiaowan had seen Fang Yang’s light perfectly contain Sen Hui’s light before.

Although his light could perfectly contain both, the situations were completely different.

Sang Xiaowan didn’t know how to describe it. She just felt that with Sen Hui, the lights had rushed toward each other in a mutual embrace. With Yu Zither Immortal, however, it was more of a passive acceptance.

It would have been fine if she had stayed quiet, but the moment she spoke, she had a knack for making everyone in the room fall silent.

This was true for her senior martial siblings, and it was just as true for Fang Yang and Yu Zither Immortal.

A light breeze drifted through the hall and into the inner room.

An awkward silence fell not only within the room, but seemingly outside as well.

Sang Xiaowan froze, instantly realizing she had misspoken again. She let out a silly giggle, trying to play dumb.

She even greeted the Daoists outside.

’My light can be perfectly contained by Fang Yang’s?’

Yu Zither Immortal’s delicate brows twitched, and she was inwardly astonished.

’What is that supposed to mean?’

’If I go by what my Master said about Sang Xiaowan’s insights, does this mean my potential is actually lower than Fang Yang’s?’

’No, that can’t be right. Even if that were the case, I should be the one containing him, or at the very least, we should be evenly matched.’

’And why did Sang Xiaowan say "too"?’

In an instant, one question after another surfaced in Yu Zither Immortal’s mind.

She glanced at Fang Yang, but suddenly felt as if he were shrouded in layers of black mist. His true self was hidden, and she could no longer see him clearly.

But now she was seventy percent certain that Fang Yang could abandon his Kun-Peng path at any moment and switch to the path of the Great Sun Golden Crow.

The thought of this brought her a surge of joy.

But amidst her joy, she also felt a twinge of concern.

Her path to becoming a Great Saint was growing clearer, but how could she persuade Fang Yang to cooperate with her?

She sighed to herself.

Her emotions had remained placid ever since arriving at the Daoist Mansion of Eternal Life.

Yet now, after just one meeting with Fang Yang, she found her mind beset by countless worries.

The saying ’strength comes from a lack of desire’ was certainly true.

Meanwhile, Fang Yang’s eyebrow twitched.

He immediately lifted his teacup, took a light sip, and changed the subject. "How much do you know about the Mansion Master of the Two Poles Villa?"

Hearing this, Yu Zither Immortal gave a gentle, elegant smile and began to relay the information she had gathered.

The Mansion Master of the Two Poles Villa, whose true name is Lan Jianxin, presides over the Two Poles Villa.

If the Purple Cloud Villa specializes in Daoist Thunder Arts, then the Two Poles Villa specializes in Daoist Tai Chi. It is also one of the main branches of the Daoist Mansion of Eternal Life.

One could say that every Daoist in history who obtained the supreme inheritance of the Tai Chi Yin Yang Diagram Vision has come from this very villa.

The Mansion Master of the Two Poles Villa has a prized True Disciple named Su Dao.

This same Su Dao was the Daoist who obtained the supreme inheritance of the Tai Chi Yin Yang Diagram Vision a few years prior.

It’s worth noting that Qing Rushang also once cultivated here. She was, in fact, secretly considered the junior martial sister of the Mansion Master of the Two Poles Villa.

’The Mansion Master of the Two Poles Villa, Lan Jianxin, Daoist Tai Chi, the Tai Chi Yin Yang Diagram Vision, Su Dao, and... Qing Rushang?!’

Fang Yang narrowed his eyes.

He already knew most of what Yu Zither Immortal had told him.

However, the part about Qing Rushang being Lan Jianxin’s secret junior martial sister was new to him.

Just as he was pondering this, the "Seek Good Fortune and Avoid Calamity" talent in his mind flared, coalescing into text:

The Two Poles’ dissolution holds infinite mysteries. As Daoist arts return to stillness, hidden treasures lie deep. Choose with care.

Four fortune readings followed:

[**Supreme Good Fortune:** After the dissolution, travel with a friend to the Clear Heart Pool. An opportunity will unfold as Fusang is revived and the Two Poles Token is activated. You can obtain one Tier Seven opportunity. Risk-free, with no lingering consequences. Greatly auspicious.]

[**Superior Good Fortune:** After the dissolution, travel to Cloud Valley. An opportunity will unfold and the Two Poles Token will be activated, causing a treasure to manifest from the changes. This will be accompanied by danger. Handle with caution to obtain one Tier Six opportunity. Auspicious.]

[**Neutral Fortune:** Remain at Cyan Heaven Peak. You will be nourished by the Two Poles’ Dao-rhythm. All will be calm and uneventful. No extra gains, no extra risks. Neutral.]

[**Minor Ill Fortune:** After the dissolution, travel to Immortal Footprint Cliff. You may obtain one Tier Six opportunity, but you will be forced to reveal your treasures and techniques, which will create hidden troubles for the future. Inauspicious.]

Fang Yang was silent, his thoughts racing.

’The Two Poles’ dissolution holds infinite mysteries... that must refer to the scene of the Mansion Master’s combat dissolution.’

’As Daoist arts return to stillness, hidden treasures lie deep. Choose with care... I was right. It’s pointing out that after the Mansion Master’s dissolution, treasures will be choosing new masters.’

Clear Heart Pool, Cloud Valley, Cyan Heaven Peak, and Immortal Footprint Cliff are all wondrous realms within the Profound Tai Chi Empyrean Grotto Heaven.

And the Profound Tai Chi Empyrean Grotto Heaven is the Inheritance Grotto Heaven of the Two Poles Villa, which is where the Mansion Master will undergo his combat dissolution.

Fang Yang lowered his gaze to the four fortune readings. He quickly decided to aim for the Supreme Good Fortune.

After all, it promised a Tier Seven opportunity and was a "Supreme Good Fortune" reading. It would be absurd not to choose it.

It was just that...

’Travel with a friend to the Clear Heart Pool, an opportunity will unfold, Fusang will be revived, and the Two Poles Token will stir?’

’Travel with a friend! Fusang’s revival!’

Fang Yang’s gaze gradually shifted to Yu Zither Immortal.

In other words, if he wanted to get the Tier Seven opportunity, he would need Yu Zither Immortal’s help.

And so, a smile spread across his face. "Fusang Fairy, since we get along as if we were old friends, why don’t we form an alliance and explore the Profound Tai Chi Empyrean Grotto Heaven together?"

While Yu Zither Immortal was still contemplating how to take the lead in this alliance, Sang Xiaowan was already shouting, "Me too, me too!"

"Of course," Yu Zither Immortal replied with a slight nod, her smile as radiant as a blossoming flower.
