Chapter 324 Goddess Tree
Chapter 324 Goddess Tree
After saying this, she seemed to have thought of something and asked Tian Lin, "Do you want to go to the Goddess Sect with me?"
Without waiting for Tian Lin to refuse, she continued:
"If you want your Goddess Tree to be upgraded, it's best to take it to the Goddess Sect and get the blessing of the mother tree. This is simpler and more efficient than looking for evil spirits to improve the quality of the Goddess Tree."
Tian Lin swallowed the words of refusal that were about to come out of his mouth and asked her in return: "The Goddess Sect will not help me improve the quality of the Goddess Tree for no reason, right?"
"That depends on whether my grandfather is willing to help you."
Ju Yunhai then encouraged Tian Lin, saying, "Class A disciples must travel outside the sect. Junior Brother Tian, you have nothing to do in the sect, why not go to the Goddess Sect and take a look."
He encouraged Tian Lin to make money. After all, without Mei Xiangu as a bodyguard, it would be difficult for Tian Lin to enter the secret realm alone.
"When does Miss Mei plan to return to the Goddess Sect?"
"In two days, it will be the Goddess Festival of my Goddess Sect. I plan to leave at the latest tomorrow afternoon."
Seeing this, Tian Lin decisively said to Cui'er: "You go back to the sect with Senior Brother Ju and the others. I will not take you with me to the Goddess Sect this time."
Cui'er knew that the teleportation array was very expensive, although Tian Lin no longer cared about the expense of it.
However, going to the Goddess Sect was not a dangerous mission, so there was no need for her to accompany them, so she nodded.
At this time, Mei Xiangu said to Tian Lin, "Miss Wang said that she will invite everyone to dinner tomorrow morning. I don't know whether Taoist Ju and Taoist Zhou are willing to go, but I have already agreed on your behalf."
Have a meal?
The next morning, Tian Lin discovered that those having dinner together were not only Zhou Jin and Ju Yunhai, but also the elders of the Wang family and others.
Only then did Tian Lin realize that Wang Yanyu invited them to dinner because she actually wanted them to help her support him.
Wang Yanyu is no longer a disciple of the Wendao Sect, so she has lost the aura of a disciple of the Immortal Sect.
In addition, she was expelled from the Wang family, so she had no background to rely on.
But Tian Lin and others' support for her would help improve Wang Yanyu's status in the Su family and prove that she is not without connections.
The breakfast was spent in hypocrisy, and in the afternoon Wang Yanyu personally sent Tian Lin and Mei Xiangu to the post station in Beiye County.
After saying goodbye to Ju Yunhai and the others, Tian Lin and Mei Xiangu took the teleportation array of the post station to Dongzhou.
The destination they were teleported to was Yanfei County in Dongzhou, which was not far from the Goddess Sect.
It was the time when the Goddess Sect's Heavenly Maiden Festival was about to begin. Although the people of Yanfei County could not go to the Goddess Sect to participate in the festival celebrations, each household had its own way of celebrating.
When Tian Lin and his companions arrived at Yanfei County, the county town was crowded with merchants, and the streets were filled with female cultivators strolling around and male cultivators setting up stalls.
Unlike Beihuang and Cangzhou, Dongzhou has a lot of female cultivators. Here you can see naked male prostitutes soliciting customers in brothels everywhere.
There were many nuns walking on the street, they were dressed simply and in rough clothes.
On the other hand, the man was dressed up and looked a little gentle.
"Follow me!"
As soon as Mei Xiangu finished speaking, Tian Lin felt someone touching his butt.
But this place was crowded with people, so he didn't know whether he was being taken advantage of intentionally or accidentally.
But when he turned his head, he only saw the smug smiles of several women. Fortunately, Mei Xiangu frowned and warned the women, "You flirt with a decent woman in public, do you think I dare not kill anyone?"
The women noticed the mark on Mei Xiangu's forehead and guessed that Mei Xiangu might have a past relationship with the Goddess Sect. After their faces changed continuously, they dared not stay any longer and ran away.
Mei Xiangu looked at Tian Lin with dissatisfaction and said, "You were teased and you didn't know how to resist. Others think you are a playboy because you are easy to bully."
Tian Lin was somewhat speechless, and said with a sigh: "I didn't expect that Dongzhou is so different from other states."
He finally understood why the female disciples of the Goddess Sect looked down on the male disciples.
Now I understand why the female disciples of the Goddess Sect seem to have more violent temperaments than men.
"Whether it's the Hehuan Sect or my Shennu Sect, their ancestors are all female cultivators who have suppressed more than one man in Dongzhou for tens of thousands of years.
It is normal for women to be stronger than men here.”
After she finished speaking, she continued, "Our Goddess Sect is fine, but if you meet someone from the Hehuan Sect, be careful and don't be tempted by them."
Tian Lin's heart trembled. Although he had never seen a female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect, he had heard of their methods.
"This time when we go to the Goddess Sect, you will naturally be our leader."
Tian Lin made a promise, and Mei Xiangu nodded with satisfaction.
She didn't dare to believe Tian Lin's other assurances, but she was greatly relieved about Tian Lin's relationships with men and women.
The two left the post station and went to the west of the city, where Mei Xiangu found a tavern.
This tavern was originally the place where the Goddess Sect set up in the county to obtain intelligence, so they received Mei Xiangu in this tavern and talked about the recent situation of the Goddess Sect.
After Fairy Mei inquired about her grandfather's recent situation, she did not linger in the tavern, but took Tian Lin directly to the Goddess Sect.
Tian Lin saw that she was distracted on the flying boat and knew that she was worried about her grandfather's safety, so he comforted her:
"Whatever Elder Mei said, they are all Nascent Soul masters. Even if the Goddess Sect values girls over boys, can they still ignore their cultivation and humiliate Elder Mei?"
"Of course, ordinary disciples dare not disrespect my grandfather, but what do those Yuanying elders have to worry about? When there are factional disputes in the sect, the disciples below will naturally take sides.
With the support of the Yuanying elders, the disciples below are not so afraid of my grandfather anymore."
Tian Lin remained silent. Although Elder Mei was ostracized by the people in the sect, it was ultimately an internal dispute over interests within the Goddess Sect and seemed to have nothing to do with him.
But Elder Mei gave herself the Goddess Tree and asked Fairy Mei to hold the sword herself, which indeed became the main evidence for Elder Mei to be attacked.
It would have been fine if you didn't know about this before, but now that you know, can you just turn around and pretend you didn't know?
"What are you going to do?"
After Tian Lin asked, Mei Xiangu finally couldn't stop her anger and glared at Tian Lin:
"How should I know what to do? In my opinion, you should return the Goddess Tree in your hand to the sect. That way, others won't have much reason to attack my grandfather."
Tian Lin was silent for a moment.
It’s not that he was reluctant to return the Goddess Tree - well, he was indeed reluctant to return the Goddess Tree, as he would still need this tree to attain enlightenment in the future.
But regardless of whether he was willing to give up the tree, in Tian Lin's eyes, returning the Goddess Tree would inevitably lead to others criticizing Elder Mei in other ways.
"Actually, there is another way. If I remember correctly, the Goddess Tree of the Goddess Sect cannot be given to outsiders, but the Star-Picking Seed is obviously not an exception."
