After gathering his thoughts, Jiang Che looked up at Haiyue sitting opposite him, smiled faintly, and thanked her.

"In that case, this disciple will have to trouble the Dean quite a bit in the future..."

"I hope the Dean will not hesitate to offer his guidance..."

"This is what I should do..."

Haiyue gently shook her head, glanced at the night outside the window, and directly told them to leave.

"It's getting late, you should leave..."

"Remember to come at 3:45 noon tomorrow..."

"This disciple takes his leave..."

After Jiang Che got up from his seat, he put away the three items on the table, said goodbye to Haiyue, and turned to leave.

Haiyue kept her gaze on Jiang Che until he completely disappeared from sight, then slowly withdrew her gaze, a slight smile playing on her lips.

She suddenly realized that this little guy was really interesting, and sometimes inexplicably cute.

Not long after Jiang Che left, the space fluctuated, and Wang Zhaojun, holding a staff and wearing a light blue dress, appeared in the main hall.

"Aren't you being a little too nice to him?"

Gazing at the moonlit sea before her, Wang Zhaojun frowned slightly and hesitated before speaking.

She had arrived long before Haiyue began instructing Jiang Che on his cultivation, but she hadn't revealed herself until now, so she had seen everything that had just happened.

"Have it?"

"well enough…………"

"Geniuses must be nurtured with all our might; this is the Empress's order, and I am merely following it..."

Haiyue glanced at Wang Zhaojun and spoke calmly.

"You were just following orders and had no other motives?"

Wang Zhaojun sneered, not believing Haiyue's explanation.

If she had no other selfish motives, why would Haiyue give all her treasured cultivation techniques and immortal swords to Jiang Che?

"Are you interested in this man?"

Wang Zhaojun stared intently at Haiyue, then suddenly asked a question.

After all, Haiyue's actions today were too unusual, so she couldn't help but suspect something.

I've spent quite a bit of time with Haiyue, and I've never seen her treat any man with such kindness before, let alone teach him, impart knowledge, and resolve his doubts.

Considering all of the above, Wang Zhaojun came to such an absurd conclusion.

A glint of light flashed in Wang Zhaojun's eyes as she looked at Haiyue with a strange gaze, scrutinizing her from head to toe as if they had just met that day.

So, is this old woman really having a crush on someone?

Do you like Jiang Che's type?

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"I'm thousands of years old, how could I possibly have feelings for such a little guy?"

"The reason I treated him well was to build a relationship and invest in him. I was also curious about how far he could go, just curious about his talent..."

Haiyue rolled her eyes dramatically, glanced at Wang Zhaojun, and was speechless.

With such a vivid imagination, it's a real shame she doesn't write those mindless romance novels!

She's lived for thousands of years and seen all sorts of people; how could she possibly fall for a little man so easily?

Moreover, she had never considered such a question, nor had she ever thought about finding a Daoist partner.

Seeing Wang Zhaojun's expression of "I don't believe it," Haiyue was too lazy to explain further. Time would tell, so she let the woman speculate as she pleased.

.....................

The next day, noon.

The weather was fine and sunny, with not a cloud in the sky, bright sunshine, and a gentle breeze.

As agreed, Jiang Che arrived at Qixia Peak again to listen to Haiyue's explanation on time.

Haiyue's cultivation level was undeniable; even a few casual words of guidance from her gave Jiang Che a sense of sudden enlightenment and profound understanding, from which he gained a great deal.

Half an hour later, after the explanation was finished, Haiyue picked up her teacup, took a small sip, looked at Jiang Che, and spoke softly.

"Recently, many cultivators from all over the nine provinces and major dynasties have come to the Court of State Ceremonial..."

"They're all young people, and some of them are geniuses..."

"If you're interested, you can go and broaden your horizons..."

"You can also use this opportunity to build connections..."

Haiyue spoke in a condescending tone, intending to let Jiang Che go and broaden his horizons, elevate his perspective, and make friends with cultivators from all over the world.

An eagle must eventually spread its wings and soar, and Jiang Che cannot stay in Chang'an City forever; there is a wider world waiting for him to explore.

The land of China is vast, with rivers stretching for thousands of miles, numerous celestial dynasties and sects, and countless beautiful landscapes. Wouldn't it be a pity if one could not traverse all the green mountains and travel to the ends of the earth?

"I understand, thank you for reminding me, Dean..."

Jiang Che nodded, seemingly lost in thought.

In the past few days, he had indeed heard a lot of news about this, knowing that many talented people from all over China had come to the Honglu Temple, and that Xi Shi and Zhong Wuyan should be staying there.

Besides the two of them, there should be many other female heroes who have come. Jiang Che had also been planning to go and take a look.

After bidding farewell to Haiyue and leaving the academy, Jiang Che strode forward towards the Honglu Temple, arriving at its gates in no time.

Stepping inside, Jiang Che looked around the Honglu Temple with great interest; it was his first time visiting this place.

As a venue for the Tang Dynasty to entertain guests from various countries, the Honglu Temple was naturally of a very high standard.

Located in the northern part of Chang'an City, the temple covers an extremely vast area, filled with various exquisite and magnificent pavilions and villas.

Behind the Honglu Temple lies the outer city of Chang'an, connecting to some barren mountains outside the city. After careful restoration, the environment is very beautiful, quiet, pleasant, secluded, and secluded.

After walking for half an hour, as they passed by a sea of ​​flowers, Jiang Che suddenly heard a girl's voice calling out with a hint of surprise.

"Oh, you're here too?"

Jiang Che subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice and saw three women. The girl who was speaking was Xi Shi, whom he had met once before.

Standing beside her were Zhong Wuyan, who was holding a large hammer, and a tall, beautiful girl with orange hair.

Today, Xi Shi wore a light blue long dress, her long, black hair cascading over her shoulders, and she held a book in her hands.

The girl had delicate features, with arched eyebrows, bright and clear eyes that were lively and mischievous, long and delicate eyelashes, red lips and white teeth, a high nose bridge, snow-white skin, arched eyebrows, and big, bright eyes. Her oval face was flawless, like the most perfect work of art carefully sculpted by heaven.

The girl's face beamed with surprise and she looked quite excited.

Walking up to Jiang Che, Xi Shi looked around and, not finding Cai Wenji, spoke with regret and sorrow.

"What about your sister?"

"Didn't you come with me this time?"

She had originally thought that seeing this handsome man would allow her to see that delicate, porcelain-doll-like little girl again, but now that her hopes had been dashed, Xi Shi naturally felt a little disappointed.

"No, I just came here to take a look around..."

Jiang Che gently shook his head, answering Xi Shi's question.

He glanced at the orange-haired girl next to Xi Shi and realized that she was none other than Ji Xiaoman, the number one genius girl of Jixia Academy!

Compared to Xi Shi, Ji Xiaoman was also a rare beauty, and her figure was even taller and fuller than Xi Shi's.

Xi Shi gives people the feeling of a first love, a beautiful young woman, graceful and elegant, like a girl next door, gentle and lovely.

Judging solely by appearance and figure, it's difficult to definitively say which of the two women is better; they can only be described as having their own unique charms.

"That's it..."

Xi Shi quickly composed herself, a smile appearing on her face, and began to introduce herself.

"This is my senior sister, Ji Xiaoman, the number one genius and beautiful girl of Jixia Academy!"

"This is Zhong Wuyan, whom you've met before..."

"My name is Xi Shi, and we both come from the Jixia Academy, where we compete for supremacy..."

"Senior sister, he..."

At this point, Xi Shi suddenly stopped, unable to continue.

After all, she and Jiang Che had only met by chance before, and today was only their second meeting, so of course she didn't know his name.

"My name is Jiang Che, and I greet you three young ladies..."

Jiang Che chuckled inwardly, cupped his hands in a respectful bow, and took the initiative to continue the conversation.

"Jiang Che, that's a pretty name..."

"Were you also invited to the Chang'an City Lantern Festival?"

Xi Shi muttered something, blinked her beautiful eyes, and asked curiously.

The sound was crisp and melodious, ethereal and pleasant to listen to, like a gentle stream flowing through the heart, dispelling the restlessness brought on by the sweltering summer.

Since Jiang Che would also appear at the Honglu Temple, Xi Shi instinctively assumed that Jiang Che was also one of the 1.2 people invited to participate in the International Lantern Festival.

"No, I am originally from Chang'an..."

"Hello, Ji Xiaoman..."

Ji Xiaoman blinked, her gaze shifting curiously back and forth between Jiang Che and Xi Shi.

She had only been in Chang'an for a few days, so where did Little Xi Shi get to know such a handsome man?

Moreover, this guy's cultivation level is quite good, only slightly lower than hers, ranking in the late stage of Golden Core.

Seeing that Jiang Che was such a young late-stage Golden Core cultivator, Ji Xiaoman instinctively assumed that he came from a major sect or a prestigious family, and secretly began to guess his identity.

"Zhong Wuyan..."

Zhong Wuyan nodded to Jiang Che, and then said nothing more.
