Li Qing naturally didn’t know what Yin Qianyu was up to. After leaving that place, he returned to the inn. As soon as he walked through the door, he saw Patriarch Lanxin sitting there.

“You’re back? What did you go out for just now?” Her tone was calm.

Li Qing was already prepared. Since he dared to sneak out, he naturally expected that he would be discovered. He said, “I just saw an old friend in the city and went to say goodbye to her. After joining the White Lotus Sect, I’m afraid we won’t have a chance to meet again.”

Patriarch Lanxin stared deeply at Li Qing for a moment and sighed, “You are the person recommended by my senior sister. If you do not sincerely want to join the White Lotus Sect, I advise you to stop now so that you will not regret it later.”

Li Qing shook his head and said, “This junior really wants to join. Please don’t worry, Daoist.”

“Since this is your choice, I won’t say anything else. You are a very outstanding young man and your future is limitless. Whether you are sincere or not, I will lead you to the right path.”

Li Qing knew what Patriarch Lanxin meant. Actually, she already knew that she had other intentions, but what did it matter? Anyway, after joining the White Lotus Sect, they would still have to convert to the throne of the Holy Mother, and would never rebel for the rest of their lives.

If it was just an ordinary person, Patriarch Lanxin would naturally not bother to pay so much attention to it. However, Li Qing was a very outstanding person and his strength was incomparably tyrannical. Such a talent was rare, so he naturally would not give up easily.

A few days later, Li Qing followed Patriarch Lanxin to the junction of Qingzhou and Yangzhou. There was a deep forest filled with white smoke, filled with mystery.

Entering the deep forest, he encountered another quiet valley. There was a cave at the end of the valley. After passing through it, it suddenly opened up and arrived at a place that looked like a paradise.

This was a small mountain village. The land was flat and spacious, and the houses looked like they belonged to the Mulberry Bamboo Clan of the Fertile Land and the Meichi Lake. Qianmo traffic, chickens and dogs heard of each other, full of the fun of pastoral life.

“This is the White Lotus Sect’s secret altar?” Li Qing’s face was filled with surprise. What a quiet and serene painting!

“That’s right. All of the people living in this small mountain village are believers of the White Lotus Sect. They live and work in peace and contentment. There is neither pain nor disaster.” Patriarch Lanxin smiled.

Along the way, when the villagers saw Patriarch Lanxin, they clasped their hands together, saluted, and greeted the Five Saint Envoy.

Li Qing saw the tranquil souls and devout souls on these people’s faces. They were obviously not the ones who had planted the Heavenly Demon Seed, but they believed in the White Lotus Religion spontaneously from the bottom of their hearts.

Patriarch Lanxin brought Li Qing all the way to the center of the village, where there was a huge lake. As for how big it was, Li Qing could not see it clearly, because the lake was filled with a dense mist that could isolate people’s divine sense.

This was a formation!

“Wait here for a moment. I’ll go in and report it.” Patriarch Lanxin explained, then floated into the lake and hid in the fog.

Li Qing stood there boredom. After an hour or so, a few people came from behind. One of them wore a white mask and exuded the aura of a Void Realm expert.

“Who are you?” The masked man asked.

“I was brought here by the Five Saint Emissaries. I am here to see Her Lady Saint Mother.” Li Qing replied.

“So it was her who brought it. I presume she picked out some good seedlings and came to listen to the teachings of the Virgin.” The masked man muttered to himself, ignoring Li Qing. He said to the two people behind him, “Wait here.”

After saying that, he entered the lake and hid in the mist.

Behind him stood a man and a woman. They were wearing luxurious clothes, and their faces were slightly proud. Although he wasn’t too old, his cultivation had already reached the sixth level of the Xiantian realm, so he could be considered a genius.

“Aren’t you from the White Lotus Sect?” The man asked.

Li Qing shook his head, “This is my first time coming to the White Lotus Sect’s secret altar.”

“Another fool. He was cheated and helped them count the money.” The man sneered.

Hearing this, Li Qing felt a little strange and asked, “Are you not from the White Lotus Sect?”

“Of course not. What a joke! I am the fourth prince of the dignified Great Wei Kingdom!” The man said proudly.

“I am the fifth princess of Great Zhao!”

“So it’s two members of the royal family. This lowly Li Qing is courteous.”

“Looks like the White Lotus Sect wants to accept you as a core member. This time, they will plant Heavenly Demon Seeds for you. Do you know about this?” The Fourth Prince asked.

Li Qing nodded and said, “I know.”

“Holy shit, you know you still dare to come? Don’t you know the function of the Heavenly Demon Seed?”

“The Heavenly Demon Seed will make me absolutely loyal to the White Lotus Sect.”

The two exchanged a glance and both felt that it was inconceivable, “It looks like you’re not stupid. You know quite a bit. Why don’t you seem to care?”

Li Qing smiled indifferently, “It’s my honor to receive the Heavenly Demon Seed. But you two, aren’t you afraid of being plotted against when you come to the White Lotus Sect’s secret altar?”

“We are members of the royal family. How could they do such a thing?” The Third Prince proudly took out a jade pendant and said, “With this jade pendant here, the Heavenly Demon Seed is simply unable to invade my primordial spirit. Why should I worry?”

While they were talking, the fog above the lake separated into a passageway. Patriarch Lanxin walked out and waved his hand, “Li Qing, come in.”

Li Qing entered the mist and saw an incomparably large white lotus flower in the middle of the lake. The petals stacked on top of each other, flowing brightly with a faint divinity.

This was the power of faith!

The followers of the White Lotus Sect worshiped the White Lotus God and gathered their beliefs here to forge this treasure in front of them.

This white lotus was the White Lotus Sect’s treasure-the Lifeless White Lotus!

After so many years of development, the Lifeless White Lotus had gathered a large amount of faith power, gathering the power of all living beings. It already possessed unbelievable power.

It was hard to say what grade this treasure belonged to, but what was certain was that it was no weaker than a Dao Artifact!

The layers of petals were all forged from the power of faith. They were almost endless. They turned into a sea of white lotuses, with no end in sight.

Li Qing followed Patriarch Lanxin into the Lifeless White Lotus. A rainbow bridge condensed on the petals and extended into the depths of the white lotus.

Following this rainbow bridge, a huge palace appeared in front of him. A figure sat on the top of the palace, bathed in white light, unable to see his face clearly.

This must be the supreme ruler of the White Lotus Sect, Holy Mother White Lotus!

“Greetings, Mother of the Virgin!” Li Qing saluted.

“Why do you want to join the White Lotus Sect?” The voice of Holy Mother White Lotus was ethereal, as if it came from an endless distance.

“I feel that the White Lotus Sect’s philosophy is very suitable for me, and I yearn for it in my heart. Therefore, I traveled thousands of miles to the Central Region to search for the destination of my soul.” Li Qing repeated what he had said before.

“You’re lying. Tell me, who sent you here!” The voice of Holy Mother White Lotus could not hear any emotions.

Li Qing’s expression was the same as usual. He shook his head and said, “No one sent me. This is my own choice. The Virgin is overthinking it.”

“Yi, your words are actually true.” Holy Mother White Lotus let out a surprised voice.

Li Qing was greatly shocked. What he said just now was indeed true. This Holy Mother White Lotus was actually able to distinguish between the truth and falsehood in her words! How was this possible?

“You must be very shocked right now. I can tell the truth from the lies. This is because my attainments in the Dao of the Soul are extremely high. No one can deceive me! Therefore, you should honestly tell me what your intentions are when you came to the White Lotus Sect and risked your life.”

Li Qing took a long breath and tried his best to say in a calm tone, “I have no other intentions. I really want to join the White Lotus Sect.”

“You’re lying again!” Holy Mother White Lotus seemed to be sneering and angry. The white light around her was dazzling and shining. She stretched out a pure white and translucent palm and grabbed Li Qing.

Li Qing’s eyes narrowed as the dual power of his body and true essence exploded. He punched out at this pure white palm.

Boom!

As a result, there was naturally no suspense. Li Qing was far from being her opponent. He flew backwards and spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Zhen!” His palm pressed down and pressed Li Qing to the ground.

“Get up!” Li Qing’s expression did not change. Blood and qi soared into the sky. Purple light was dazzling, and his muscles were knotted together. He actually faintly propped up this palm.

“It’s not that easy to suppress me!” Li Qing broke free from the restraints of his palm and punched out ten times in a row, shattering this pure white palm.

This result surprised him. The Virgin White Lotus was so weak? According to rumors, she should be at least at the peak of the Void Realm. If she really wanted to kill him, one finger could be crushed to death. Why was her palm shattered by Li Qing instead?

There was something strange about this.

“Your strength is not bad!” Holy Mother White Lotus did not attack again.

“What does Her Lady Notre Dame mean? I sincerely want to join the White Lotus Sect, but I am treated like this!” Li Qing was slightly angry.

“You have ulterior motives in joining the White Lotus Sect. It’s only natural for me to teach you a lesson.”

“Since you are unwilling to accept me, then I will leave now.”

“Do you really think that I, Bailian Zhongdi, am here whenever I want to, and leave whenever I want?” Holy Mother White Lotus sneered.

Li Qing said, “Then what do you want?”

“Looks like your strength is not bad. If you can compare to a Void Realm expert, then I’ll give you a chance. If you obediently let me plant the Heavenly Demon Seed, I can let you join the White Lotus Sect!”

“Since I came here, I was mentally prepared to receive the Heavenly Demon Seed. Why would you waste so much effort?”

“Alright then, let go of your divine soul now. Don’t resist!”

“Come on.” Li Qing’s expression was calm.

Holy Mother White Lotus waved her hand and flew down a white rosette, saying, “Sit on it.”

Li Qing immediately sat on the white rosette.

A resplendent white light rose from the rosette, fixing Li Qing and preventing him from moving. Then, a white light shot out from Holy Mother White Lotus’s hand and pointed at Li Qing’s forehead.
