Chapter 157 Jian Sheng Is The One In Charge

The legends of the cultivation world, where spiritual energy was abundant and spirit materials were everywhere, filled them with longing for power.

Jian Sheng looked at them in surprise, "Legends? You don't know about the cultivation world?"

That wasn't right. Although the cultivation world rarely interacted with the secular world, it did have affiliated sects in the secular world, and there was exchange between the two realms.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to obtain a first-generation smartphone produced in the secular world through an affiliated sect back then.

With their current cultivation and status, they should have been able to access the cultivation world.

Why did these two appear to know nothing about it?

Jian Sheng couldn't help but inquire about the affiliated sects she knew of.

Yu Guanzi and Chen Daoling exchanged glances, further confirming that the young girl's master came from the cultivation world. Otherwise, she wouldn't have known so many secrets of the cultivation world.

The two also provided the young girl with their answers.

They had indeed heard of these sects, but these sects were extremely strict in accepting disciples, and their gates were rarely open to the public, so they knew very little information about these sects.

Moreover, several years ago, something seemed to have happened among these sects, and they all announced their reclusion, cutting off all contact with the outside world.

Initially, some people who joined these sects would pass on some news, but after the sects went into seclusion, the news was completely blocked.

They themselves had never been to the cultivation world, relying entirely on the oral accounts of the cultivators from those sects.

And after these sects closed, the cultivation world completely became a legend.

After listening to their accounts, Jian Sheng fell into thought.

Their words were vague. Since they were not members of the sects, they were unsure of the exact time these sects closed, only able to estimate the approximate time to be seven or eight years ago.

Considering the lag in their information, it might even be pushed back a year or two further.

At that time, she should still have been in the cultivation world. She hadn't heard any rumors about the cultivation world completely sealing off and severing ties with the secular world.

Unable to figure out the reason, Jian Sheng decided to wait until she could directly go to those affiliated sects to clarify the situation.

Closing the sects could only block others. She knew the entry methods to those sect formations.

However, these were matters for later. Jian Sheng could not tell the two about her own affairs in the cultivation world, and Yu Guanzi and Chen Daoling, being adults, were not tactless. Since the young girl was unwilling to speak, they immediately stopped asking.

Knowing that the young girl was indeed supported by a powerful figure from the cultivation world was enough.

The two then turned to inquire about Lou Jusheng, something Jian Sheng had no reason to withhold. She recounted the grievances between herself, the Xu family, and Lou Jusheng in meticulous detail.

Even including the fact that she...

Although the three of them asked each other questions, the young girl's inquiries were mostly out of curiosity.

When the two Daoists inquired, their tone of admiration and anticipation was even more evident.

This couldn't help but surprise Xiao Yun Sheng. Although he didn't know much about cultivators as a special group, based on what he knew, Daoist Yu Guanzi held a very important position among cultivators.

This could be seen from his occasional collaborations with Daoist Yu Guanzi.

And now, Daoist Yu Guanzi held such high regard for this young girl.

Xiao Yun Sheng had already begun to consider that perhaps their assessment of the young girl needed to be significantly raised.

At the same time, it further strengthened their determination to recruit the young girl.

Afterwards, Xiao Yun Sheng summoned Chen Jingsheng.

The group began to discuss the follow-up handling of the Lou Jusheng case.

In truth, Yu Guanzi, as a semi-official member, had a much higher level of secrecy than Chen Jingsheng.

Chen Daoling also had Yu Guanzi as a guarantor. Although he could be a bit hot-tempered, there were no issues with his character.

Therefore, Chen Jingsheng and Xiao Yun Sheng did not conceal the follow-up handling of this case from the two.

They even wanted to see if these two Daoists, with their immense abilities, had any better solutions.

After all, Chen Daoling had pursued Lou Jusheng for decades and must have some understanding of Lou Jusheng, right?

Willing to help the yamen, Chen Daoling did not hide anything and revealed everything he had investigated and learned over the years.

Chen Jingsheng naturally busied himself with recording.

Yu Guanzi, relying on his understanding of the domestic cultivator circles, also suggested several places that domestic cultivators often frequented.

Both Chen Jingsheng and Xiao Yun Sheng expressed that they had their eyes opened.

After the two finished speaking, everyone's gaze fell upon the young girl.

Initially, they had sought the help of this unremarkable young girl.

Jian Sheng thought for a moment and finally decided to rely on the art of deduction she had been studying recently.

After returning from Elder Jian's place, having experienced the regret of not having learned something when it was needed, Jian Sheng had recently focused her attention on the art of deduction.

It was passed down to her by a grandfather from the Tianji Sect. As a secret of the Tianji Sect that was not to be passed down, after learning it, she had also registered as a disciple at the Tianji Sect.
