Volume One Conclusion and Personal Reflections

d flying swords.But as the sword's cry resounded, Hai Zongming's countenance had already shifted!The explosive force unleashed at that moment was enough to amaze him, especially the way it so forceful...Da da da~da da da.

A knock on the door sounded.

"Who"

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

This is a test.

She blinked her eyes and struggled out of the white. "Elder Two, what is your business"

"Can't an old man come to greet the Saintess when he has nothing to do" The Second Elder smiled, that aged face should have been described as kind, but because his eyes were only white, it looked very eerie: "The Saintess's cultivation has improved a lot, it's truly a blessing for my White Bone Dao."

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

“Hahaha. Don't you intend to let old man in for a sit”

"This…" Bai Lian's eyes showed reluctance: "After all, I am a young woman, it's not convenient, right"

"I've watched the Holy Maiden grow up since she was young. You are like a daughter to me. What is inconvenient" The Second Elder said, then squeezed into the room.

He looked her up and down, as if casually asking, "Why is the Saintess wearing a night veil in her own room inside the temple"

Bai Lian blinked her eyes: "Such natural beauty, one has to keep a low profile."

>

"Hahaha..." Er Chang burst into laughter, then suddenly stopped: "Ouyang is back. I can smell him."

“This is great news! It wasn't for nothing that we put in so much effort, made so many sacrifices, and kept him hidden along the way. Where is that Grand Elder”

“Who could guess what he's thinking”

This should be an empty line.

You wouldn't even guess, and I wouldn't know either.

"Is it that you don't know, or that you don't want to know"

"There's no need for others to know about it," Bai Lianjiao smiled sweetly. "Matters of the sect should be left to the elders to decide. I'll just wait for news."

Elder Two glanced deeply at her, then rose and walked out.

As she stepped out of the door, she suddenly stopped. "Why is the Saintess so agreeable today"

Bai Lian smiled and said, "What are you talking about When have I ever been difficult to talk to If I occasionally get a bit temperamental, isn't it all for the sake of our sect's important matters"

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

"Perhaps this is the final test."

Bai Lian whispered softly.

She sat quietly for a while, making sure no one would disturb her. Only then did she lay out a game board and open the closet, pulling out Jiang Wang, who was fast asleep with his eyes closed, and throwing 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.

The White Lotus Seal, break the seal of the five senses.

Jiang Wang suddenly stood up, looked at Bai Lian, and remained silent, gripping his sword.

Although he was in a state of five senses sealed, 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 today's events.

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

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

Bai Lian smiled: "What's worth mentioning"

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

“We are all members of the Taoist school.” Bai Lian said.

Xingzhi knew arguing with her about whether Bai Gudao belonged to the orthodox lineage of Daomen was pointless, so Jiang Wang repeated, "I only ask you, are you from Bai Gudao"

"It wasn't me." Bai Lian extended her jade finger and pointed at 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"

Ginger didn't answer her question, but asked instead: "So today Fang He Ling came to Niutoushan, a trap For whom"

"The Bone Messenger's casual move wasn't directed at anyone in particular. Just tonight, whoever followed Fang Hualing would die here. We're abandoning this place anyway. You and the clandestine agent from the Criminal Investigation Division just happened to be here."

The White Bone Demon will soon leave Mount Niuhead.

Jiang Wang keenly caught the information, but he put it aside. He countered, "What do you mean by 'transformation' And what do you mean by 'we'"

"The white bone lotus on your back, the meat-soul returning technique you suddenly mastered... Isn't this enough to make you think"

“You always understand me so well, perhaps all of this is your plan. The white bone lotus might have been tattooed on me while I was unconscious, and the Reanimation Ritual could be something you passed on to me through some means... There's no way I'm connected to the White Bone Sect!”

"As for modifying memories, that's beyond my capabilities," Bai Lian suddenly chuckled. "However, I have indeed been keeping a close eye on you ever since you were a beggar..."

Jiang Wang was shocked!

To escape Fang Peng's pursuit, he disguised himself as a beggar and barely survived at the Zhen Guan temple. That was before his meridians were even opened. White Lotus had been observing him since then

Bai Lian quickly explained: "Back then, when you bunch of beggars settled at the Real View Temple, it was under our guidance that you made that choice."

Her voice was soft: "Ruheng, this is a very meaningful place, a place chosen by the gods. Even when Zuo Guanglie died in battle, I was curious, why did you survive while so many beggars died Could it just be a coincidence"

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

I suppose you've noticed it too

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

What's most important is that you can devour the white bone Dao seeds, you can perfectly adapt to the white bone Dao secret art, you will have the flesh-soul return technique! You are not ordinary, you are the white bone Dao child!

"Later, I understood that your appearance at the True View was arranged by the divine."

“No, no!” Jiang Wang shook his head. He believed his cultivation came from the Tai Xu Illusory Realm, and had nothing to do with the White Bone Daoist. But the Tai Xu Illusory Realm was his biggest secret now, and he couldn't use it as evidence.

“I’m afraid you say the right thing with your mouth, but cry silently in your heart.”

Here is your translated text:

"What kind of nonsense!" Jiang Wang retreated a step: "I've said it, I can never forgive what Bai Gu Dao did. And I will never collude 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 removed your hypocrisy, and haven't found your true self."

“I know exactly 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 is this White Bone Dao lineage you speak of" he asked.

"This is something very precious, and I only have one. It can absorb the nutrients of the host to grow, and finally perfectly control the host. But I didn't expect you to swallow it... So you see, Daozhong naturally wouldn't work on Daozi!"

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

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

Bailin's rare gaze held a tinge 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 refuse to believe that I am Bai Gu Daozi. Even if it is true, I will never consort with this group of inhumane people!"

Although "even if" expresses determination, it also indicates hesitation.

Bai Lian wasn't eager to dwell on this point, but instead countered with a question: "Is it more inhumane to raise ferocious beasts and disregard the lives of the people Or is it more inhumane to extract merfolk lifelines to refine Kai Mai Dan"

"You can't shake my resolve with words!" Jiang Wang said firmly, as if this wasn't enough to resist the pressure he was facing.

>

He took deep, even breaths, confirming his resolve: "Bailin, since our paths diverge, let us part ways. I said before, my life is yours to take back."

Bai Lian's eyes were incredibly beautiful, seeming both angry and resentful, filled with autumnal waves. She gazed at Jiang Wang with those very eyes.

"How could I possibly kill you" she softened her voice, speaking softly. "But, as long as you cooperate, I can erase your memories from tonight. Just pretend nothing happened. You'll only remember what happened tonight once you are fully awake."

>

"Is this burying one's head in the sand"

“No, it’s just not the right time.”

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

“Look into my eyes,” she said. “I don’t have the power to manipulate memories. I merely used a spell to temporarily seal this small segment of memory, so you must let go of your mind and fully cooperate. If anything goes wrong, you could suffer from mental instability at best, or lose your soul at worst.”

Jiang Wang knew in her heart that this was the best choice.

Tonight, he mistakenly entered Mount Niu Tou, stepping into a den of thieves. He should have died there.

Though the Lotus White has shielded him in many ways, saving his life. But no matter what, it's impossible for him to return to Maple Forest City with the secrets of the White Bone Path.

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

Now he could postpone the choice he had to make without having to die.

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

He felt a warmth and embrace, along with a longing.

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 gaze.

Then the lotus bloomed, but at its center was not a pistil nor any lotus seed pod.

... but... a black candle!
