Second Volume Summary and Reflections

d, "Did you spread the plague with this little bell"The snakebone-faced man bowed his head and wrote a "yes" on the paper.Because of her lowered gaze, Jiang Wang didn't see the fleeting relief in her...Tap tap tap ~ tap tap tap.

A knock on the door.

"Who"

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

She blinked and struggled out of the white. "Elder Two, what brings you here"

"An old man like me can't just come to visit the Holy Maiden without a reason, can he" Elder Two chuckled, his aged face should have been kind, but because only the whites of his eyes remained, it looked very eerie: "The Holy Maiden's cultivation has progressed significantly. This is truly a blessing for the 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."

"Haha. Not going to let old man in for a sit"

“This...” Bai Lian's eyes showed displeasure: “After all, I'm a young lady, it wouldn't be convenient, would it”

“I've watched the Saintess grow up since she was a child. You are like my own daughter to me. Is there anything inconvenient about this” The Second Elder said, and then squeezed into the room.

He cast a few glances left and right, feigning indifference as he asked, "How come the Saintess is in her own room within the temple, still wearing a night veil"

Bai Lian blinked her eyes: "Naturally beautiful, one must hide one's brilliance and bide one's time."

“Hahaha...” Er Chang burst into laughter, then suddenly stopped: “Ou Yang has returned. I can smell him.”

>

“This is good news! It wasn't for nothing that we put in so much effort, sacrificed so many undercover agents, and covered for him all the way. Why hasn't the Grand Elder shown up yet”

Who could possibly guess what he's thinking

You have no idea, and I don't either.

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

"There's no need for others to know," Bai Lianjiao chuckled. "Matters concerning the sect should be left to the elders to decide. I shall simply wait for news."

Elder Two looked deeply at her, then stood up and walked out.

As he stepped out the door, he suddenly stopped. "Why is the Holy Maiden so agreeable today"

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

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 take out Jiang Wang, who had his eyes closed tightly, and throw him onto the bed.

At this time, Jiang Wang was sealed within the Five Senses, only this way could he avoid those eyes that were left with only whites.

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

The White Lotus Palm Technique, unlocking the seal of the Five Senses.

Jiang Wang suddenly stood up, looked at Bai Lian, and drew his sword without speaking.

Although he had been in a state of five sense 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.

"You can ask me anything." Bai Lian walked to the table and sat down.

"You saved me again." Jiang Wang's voice was a bit strained.

Bai Lian smiled: "It's nothing to mention."

"This is the White Bone Dao's lair. Are you from the White Bone Dao" Jiang Wang asked.

"We are all people of the Taoist sect," Bai Lian said.

Knowing that arguing with her about whether the Bai Gu Dao belonged to the orthodox lineage of the Taoist school was pointless, Jiang Wang repeated, "I only ask you, are you from the Bai Gu Dao"

“It wasn’t me.” Bai Lian extended her jade finger and pointed at Jiang Wang: “It was us.”

"What does that 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 didn't answer her question, but asked: "So today Fang He Ling came to Niutoushan, is it a trap Who is it aimed at"

The Bai Gu Shi's one-handed idle chess move is not targeting anyone. Just tonight, whoever follows Fang He Ling will die here. Anyway, we are abandoning this place soon. You and the Jixing Si's undercover agent are just coincidentally here.

The White Bone Dao will soon leave Mount Niutou.

Jiang Wang keenly caught this information, but he put it aside. He asked back: “What does ‘transformation’ mean What are you referring to when you say ‘we’”

“The white bone lotus on your back, the flesh and soul return technique you suddenly mastered... Isn't this enough to make you think”

The content within the > tags is:

“You’ve always known me so well, all of this could be your plan. The White Bone Lotus might have been tattooed on me while I was unconscious, or perhaps the Reanimate Technique is something you passed on to me in some way…I can’t possibly be connected to the White Bone Sect!”

“Modifying memories like that is beyond my capabilities,” Bai Lian suddenly laughed. “However, it’s true I’ve always been keeping an eye on you, even when you were just a beggar...”

Jiang Wang was startled!

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

"White Lotus quickly explained, "Back then when you beggars settled in the True View Monastery, it was a choice made under our guidance."

>

Her voice was soft and low: "Really, it is a meaningful place, a place chosen by the gods. Even back when Zuo Guanglie died in battle, I was curious. So many beggars died that day, why were you the only one who lived Could it be just coincidence"

Why did you return to the Daoist academy and see such rapid progress in your cultivation

I presume you've noticed it too

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

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

Most importantly, you are able to devour the white bone Dao species, you can perfectly adapt to the white bone Dao secret method, you will have the fleshly soul return technique! You are not ordinary, you are the son of the white bone Dao!

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

This is what you asked for. Please let me know if I can help with anything else!

“No, no!” Jiang Wang shook his head. He believed his cultivation came from the Tai Xu Illusionary Realm and had nothing to do with Bai Gu Daozi. But the Tai Xu Illusionary Realm was his biggest secret now and he couldn’t reveal it to clear his name.

"I'm afraid you say one thing but cry silently in your heart."

“What kind of trickery is this!” Jiang Wang took a step back: “I said, I will never forgive what Bai Gu Dao has done. And I can’t 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 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 do you mean by the white bone sect" he asked.

“This is a very precious thing, I only have one. It can absorb the nutrients of the host and grow, and finally perfectly control the host. But I didn't expect it to be swallowed by you...So you see, Daozong naturally couldn't work on Daizi!”

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

Bai Lian's rare gaze held a hint of apology: "Back then, we weren't familiar with each other..."

“I don’t know you now, you make me feel very strange!” Jiang Wang said coldly: “Don’t say any more! I absolutely won’t believe that I am the White Bone Daoist son. Even if it is true, I will never be involved with your group of heartless monsters!”

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

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

Bai Lian did not rush to argue on this point, but instead countered, "Is it more beastly to raise ferocious beasts and disregard the lives of the people, or to extract water spirit meridians to refine Kaimudan Which is truly more like a human with the heart of a beast"

"Don't you dare try to shake my resolve with words!" Jiang Wang said, his voice firm, as if such determination was the only thing that could withstand the pressure he was enduring.

He took slow, deep breaths to steady himself, confirming his resolve: "Bai Lian, since our paths diverge, then let us part ways. I told you, my life is yours to take back. You can have it now."

Bai Lian's eyes were extremely beautiful, with a hint of anger and resentment, her eyes filled with amorous glances. She stared at Jiang Wang with those 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 remember everything that happened tonight only when you are fully awake."

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

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

Bai Lian rose and leaned in, pressing Jiang Wang down onto the bed before he could react.

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

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

Tonight he mistakenly entered Mount Niu Tou, stepping into a bandit's den. He should have died here.

The White Lotus had concealed many things, already saving his life. But no matter what, he couldn't possibly return to Maple Forest City with the secrets of the White Bone Path.

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

Yet he would rather die than consorting with the White Bones Dao.

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

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

He felt a warmth and inclusiveness, and 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 line of sight.

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

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

...but... a black candle!
