A knock on the door.

"Who"

Bai Lian pulled open the door and at first, only saw a pair of white eyes.

She blinked, struggling out of the white. "What brings Elder Two here"

“Can’t an old man come to greet the Saintess when he has nothing to do” Elder Two smiled, the smile on his withered face should have been kind, but because his eyes were only white, it looked very eerie: “The Saintess’s cultivation has improved a lot, it is truly a blessing for our White Bone Dao.”

"Where. Elder, you are the pillar of jade and white that supports our teachings, the purple gold beam that spans the sea."

"Hehehe. Not planning on letting old me come in for a sit"

“This…” Bai Lian showed a conflicted expression: “After all, I’m still a young lady, it wouldn’t be convenient, would it”

"I've watched the Saint grow up since she was little. You are like my own daughter. Is there anything inconvenient" said the Second Elder, then squeezed into the room.

He cast a glance to the left and right, feigning casualness as he asked, “Why is the Holy Maiden wearing night gauze in her own room within the temple”

Bai Lian blinked. "Born with beauty, one must conceal their radiance."

"Hahahaha…" Elder Brother Two let out a long, loud laugh, but it suddenly stopped. "Ouyang is back," he said, his voice low. "I can smell him."

"This is a good thing! It wasn't in vain that we put in so much effort, sacrificing so many agents to cover for him along the way. Why isn't the Grand Elder showing up yet"

Who could have guessed what he was thinking

"You wouldn't even guess, so I have no idea."

"Is it that you don't know, or are you simply unwilling to know"

“People needn’t know about that,” Bai Lianjiao chuckled. “The important matters of the sect are still to be decided by the elders. I shall just wait for news.”

As he stepped out the door, he suddenly stopped. "Why is the Saintess so talkative today"

Bai Lian chuckled and said, "What are you saying When have I ever been difficult to get along with If I occasionally get a little temperamental, isn't it all for the sake of our sect's important matters"

Elder Two finally left, and the oppressive feeling in the room seemed to be cut off by the door.

Perhaps this is the last test.

Bai Lian whispered softly.

She sat quietly for a while, making sure no one would come to disturb her. Only then did she put down a chessboard, open the wardrobe, and pull out Jiang Wang, who was lying with his eyes closed, and throw him onto the bed.

At this time, Jiang Wang was sealed within the Five Senses prison, this was the only way to avoid those eyes that remained only white.

White Lotus Incantation, unlocking the seal of the Five Senses.

Jiang Wang rose abruptly, looking at Bai Lian. He held his sword without speaking.

Although he had been in a state of five senses seal, unable to hear the conversation between Bai Lian and the Second Elder, by emptying his five senses and calming his mind, he was also repeatedly thinking about the events of the day.

"Ask me anything you want." Bai Lian walked to the table and sat down.

“You saved me again.” Jiang Wang’s voice was a little strained.

Bai Lian smiled: "What's there to mention"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

“This is the Bai Gu Dao’s lair, are you from Bai Gu Dao” Jiang Wang asked.

“We are all people of the Taoist tradition,” Bai Lian said.

Xīn zhī yǔ tā zhēng lùn bái gǔ dào shǔ bù shù yú dào mén zhèng tòng gè nán yǒu míngyì, Jiāng Wàng chóng fù dào: “Wǒ zhǐ wèn nǐ, nǐ shì bái gǔ dào de rén ma”

It makes no sense to argue with her about whether Bai Gǔ Dao belongs to the orthodox sect of Taoism. Jiang Wang repeated, "I only ask you, are you from Bai Gǔ Dao"

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

“It wasn’t me.” Baillian extended a jade finger and tapped Jiang Wang: “It was us.”

"What does it mean"

“I wasn't planning on telling you this so soon, because your 'transformation' isn't complete yet.” Bai Lian sighed and asked, “But since you’re here today, you won't rest until you get an answer, will you”

Jiang Wang did not answer her question, but asked: "So today Fang Huelin came to Niutoushan, is it a trap For whom"

The Bone Messenger's move wasn't aimed at anyone in particular. Tonight, whoever followed Fang Huiling would die here, regardless of who it was. We're abandoning this place anyway. You and that Imperial Censor's scout were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The White Bone Demon will soon leave Mount Niu Tou.

Jiang Wang keenly caught this information, but he put it aside. He asked back: "What does metamorphosis mean What do you mean by 'us' and 'them'"

"The white bone lotus on your back, the flesh soul return technique you suddenly mastered... Aren't these enough to make you think"

"You always know so much about me, perhaps this is all part of your plan. The white bone lotus might have been tattooed on me while I was unconscious, and the Flesh Rebirth Soul Return technique could be something you somehow passed onto me... There's no way I'm connected to the White Bone Dao!"

"As for altering memories, I'm afraid that's beyond my capabilities," Bai Lian suddenly laughed. "However, it is true that I've been keeping a close eye on you ever since you were just a beggar..."

Jiang Wang was terrified!

To evade Fang Peng's pursuit, he disguised himself as a beggar and barely survived at the Zhen Guan Temple. That was before he had even opened his pulse points. White Lotus had been observing him from that time

Bai Lian quickly explained: "Back then, when your group of beggars took refuge at the True View Monastery, it was under our guidance that you made that choice."

Her voice was soft and low: "It is indeed a place of great significance, chosen by the gods themselves. Even back when General Zuo Guanglie fell in battle, I was curious why so many beggars died, yet you alone survived. Could it be mere coincidence"

Why did you return to the Daoist Temple and make such rapid progress in your cultivation afterwards

I presume you've noticed it too

After opening your meridian, your cultivation speed will surpass that of ordinary people.

Here's the text translated:

Most importantly, you are able to devour the White Bone Dao lineage, you can perfectly adapt to the White Bone Dao secret techniques, you will master the Flesh Soul Return Art! You are not ordinary, you are the Son of the White Bone Dao!

Bai Lian finally said, "Later I understood that your appearance in the Zhen Guan temple was arranged by the divine."

“No, no!” Jiang Wang shook his head. He believed his cultivation came from the Taixu Illusory Realm, and had nothing to do with someone like Bai Gu Daozi. But the Taixu Illusory Realm was his biggest secret now, and he couldn't reveal it to defend himself.

"I'm afraid you'll say the right things out loud, but be heartbroken inside."

"What kind of nonsense!" Jiang Wang took a step back: "I've said it before, I can never forgive what Bai Gu Dao has done. And I can never conspire with you, we are not on the same side!"

That's because you haven't yet seen the truth of this world, haven't thoroughly wiped away your hypocrisy, and haven't found your true self.

"I know who I am, no need for you to remind me," Jiang Wang tried his best to control his emotions, allowing himself to calm down and think.

"What do you mean by the White Bone Dao lineage" he asked.

"This is something very precious, and I only have one. It can absorb the nutrients of the parasite to grow, and finally perfectly control the parasite. But I didn't expect it to be swallowed by you... So you see, Daozong certainly wouldn't work on a Daizi!"

Jiang Wang looked at her coldly: "Have you tried to parasitize me"

Bai Lian's gaze, which was usually so serene, held a hint of apology. "Back then, we weren't familiar with each other..."

“I’m still unfamiliar with you, and you feel very strange to me!” Jiang Wang said coldly: “Don’t say any more! I absolutely don't believe that I am the White Bone Daozi. Even if it is true, I will never collude with you, a group of heartless beasts!”

Though the word "even" expresses determination, it also betrays hesitation.

Bai Lian didn't rush to argue this point, but instead countered: "Is it more inhumane to raise vicious beasts and disregard the lives of the people Or is it more inhumane to extract water-spirit meridians to refine Kai Mai Dan"

“Don’t you dare try to shake my resolve with your words!” Jiang Wang said resolutely, as if such a statement wasn't enough to resist the pressure he was enduring.

He breathed deeply and evenly, reaffirming his resolve: "Baillian, since our paths diverge, let us part ways. As I said, my life is yours to claim back now."

Bai Lian's eyes were very beautiful, seeming both angry and resentful, with affection shimmering within them. She gazed at Jiang Wang with those eyes.

"How could I bear to kill you" she softened her voice, saying softly, "But as long as you cooperate, I can erase your memories from tonight. Just pretend nothing happened. When you fully awaken, you'll remember what happened tonight."

"Are you trying to steal a bell while covering your ears"

"No, it's just not the right time."

Bai Lian got up and leaned in. Before Jiang Wang could react, she pressed him down onto the bed and sat beside him.

"Look into my eyes," she said. "I don't have the power to manipulate memories. I only used a spell to temporarily seal this small section of your memory, so you must let go of your mind and fully cooperate. If anything goes wrong, at best you'll suffer from mental instability, at worst your soul will be scattered."

Jiang Wang knew deep down that this was the best choice.

Tonight, he mistakenly entered Niutoushan Mountain and stepped into the lair of bandits. He should have died in this situation.

Although Bai Lian had concealed everything, she had already saved his life. However, there was no way he could return to Fenglin City with the secret of the White Bone Path.

And he would rather die than consort with the White Bone Demon.

Now he can postpone the choice he has to face without having to die.

Jiang Wang opened his heart and mind completely, allowing his consciousness to be enveloped by countless lotus petals.

He felt a warmth and inclusiveness, as well as fondness.

Then, in this boundless sea of lotus petals, he saw a lotus bud drifting towards him.

It grew taller and taller until it was level with Jiang Wang's line of sight.

Then the lotus bloomed, and at the very center of its blossom was not a pistil, nor a seed pod.

...but a black candle!
