Chapter 335 – A little girl has no way to repay, only
Meng Fan pondered for a while and decided that the best way to approach this matter was through Zhong Lingxiu.
After all, Zhong Lingxiu was the only person he knew from the Hundred Flowers Sect.
Well, "knew" might be a bit of a stretch.
So, how should he proceed?
Meng Fan decided to use his charm.
The beauty trap!
After all, when Zhong Lingxiu first approached his table and looked at him, Meng Fan could clearly see the amazement in her eyes.
He had always been confident in his looks.
Even though he hadn't had a girlfriend since arriving in this world and had never used his looks to his advantage, it didn't mean he couldn't.
He just never needed to.
He was too strong. With his abilities, he never needed to rely on his looks.
But that was only true within the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.
In the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, Meng Fan never said it out loud, but he truly believed he was the best. He was a bit arrogant.
For instance, those cultivators with higher cultivation levels than him, like Ye Qingyu and Liu Ye Han from the Alchemy Hall, often sought his guidance on sword techniques.
In the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, nothing seemed to be a challenge for Meng Fan. Everything was easily handled.
But once he left Shu Mountain, problems started piling up.
It felt like he was being knocked back to his original form.
Now, he was even considering using his looks, a last resort.
Of course, there was another important reason.
Zhong Lingxiu was extremely beautiful. Even if he used his looks, it wouldn't be a loss.
If she were as plain as Liu Yanping, Meng Fan wouldn't even consider it!
"But before that, I need to figure out Zhong Lingxiu's identity," Meng Fan muttered to himself, losing his appetite. He left the inn.
He knew Zhong Lingxiu was from the Hundred Flowers Sect, but he needed to find out her exact status within the sect.
If she was just an ordinary disciple, using his looks might be pointless.
But with her being at the seventh level of the Summoning God Realm, she couldn't be just an ordinary disciple!
After leaving the inn, Meng Fan walked in the direction Zhong Lingxiu had left.
During their conversation at the inn, Zhong Lingxiu mentioned she was visiting relatives in Lily Town.
So, there must be relatives of hers in Lily Town. Starting from there, he might be able to gather some information about Zhong Lingxiu.
As a cultivator at the fourth level of the Condensing Elixir Realm, gathering information in a small mortal town was a piece of cake for Meng Fan.
Soon, Meng Fan found out that Zhong Lingxiu was from the Zhong family in Lily Town.
The Zhong family was a swordsmith family, but not a cultivation swordsmith family.
They only forged ordinary swords and didn't have the ability to forge spiritual swords.
The entire Zhong family had only one cultivator—Zhong Lingxiu.
And this information was known only to a few close relatives of Zhong Lingxiu, not many in the Zhong family knew about it.
Being able to join the Hundred Flowers Sect from a mortal family, Zhong Lingxiu was indeed bringing glory to her ancestors.
"Zhong family," Meng Fan muttered, but he didn't act rashly. Instead, he returned to the inn.
For the next two days, Meng Fan stayed in the inn, cultivating silently without going out.
Two days later, after confirming that Zhong Lingxiu had left Lily Town, Meng Fan finally stepped out of the inn.
While Zhong Lingxiu was around, he didn't dare to make a move on the Zhong family.
But once she left, Meng Fan acted without hesitation.
That night, Meng Fan went to the Zhong residence.
Zhong Lingxiu's father was named Zhong Shan.
Meng Fan found Zhong Shan and used his divine sense to confuse him.
He initiated a simple Q&A mode!
Whatever Meng Fan asked, Zhong Shan answered honestly, soon revealing all of Zhong Lingxiu's secrets.
When Meng Fan left the Zhong residence, he even knew that Zhong Lingxiu had wet the bed until she was five.
"Zhong Lingxiu, the direct disciple of the Hundred Flowers Sect's Clan Master. That's quite an impressive status," Meng Fan muttered to himself as he sat cross-legged on his bed back at the inn.
The Clan Master of the Hundred Flowers Sect was named Hua Qianxue.
Under her, there were only three direct disciples.
Zhong Lingxiu was the youngest, only fifty-eight years old.
Fifty-eight might sound old, but for a cultivator, it was practically infantile.
Reaching the seventh level of the Summoning God Realm at fifty-eight was undoubtedly the mark of a chosen beauty.
If she weren't a chosen beauty, she wouldn't have been taken in as a disciple by Hua Qianxue, the Clan Master of the Hundred Flowers Sect.
Becoming a direct disciple of the Clan Master was indeed a rare fortune.
Even someone as outstanding as Meng Fan hadn't become a direct disciple of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect's Sect Master; he was only a disciple of the Sword Elder.
Of course, this wasn't to belittle Elder Lin, the Sword Elder, but just a comparison.
In fact, given Meng Fan's monstrous talent, he was more than qualified to be a direct disciple of the Sect Master.
But Elder Lin had taken him in as a direct disciple long ago, and even the Sect Master wouldn't poach him!
First come, first served...
Even the Sect Master had to follow the rules.
Besides, if Meng Fan were to become the Sect Master's direct disciple, he would be terrified and would definitely refuse.
After all, he knew too many of the Sect Master's secrets.
Keeping a distance was fine, but being a direct disciple and spending every day together would be problematic.
"With Zhong Lingxiu's status in the Hundred Flowers Sect, if she were willing to help me, it would definitely be useful.
And based on her previous reactions, she should have seen Li Xuerou.
So, the question is, how do I get her to help me?
Although the term 'beauty trap' sounds simple, it's not easy to execute. It's quite complicated!"
Meng Fan muttered to himself, feeling a bit frustrated and helpless.
After all, he really had no experience!
In his previous life, he was plain-looking, and using a beauty trap was out of the question.
After time traveling to this world, he had the looks to pull off a beauty trap, but he never needed to.
He had relied on his strength to cultivate to the fourth level of the Condensing Elixir Realm!
"What’s the correct way to execute a beauty trap?" Meng Fan thought for a moment, and the first idea that popped into his mind was...
Hero saving the beauty!
Cliché as it was, it worked.
If an ugly person saved a beauty, she would probably say she'd repay him in the next life.
But if a handsome hero like Meng Fan saved a beauty, she would definitely say she had no way to repay him other than with her body...
