Chapter 1501: Chapter 809 Rouge Shouldn’t be the case... Mo Hua thought about the time when he was trapped in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons: either disheartened or uneasy, without a bit of resolve, just munching on the jerky Mo Hua gave him as he got by. He silently shook his head at Song Jian. The Sever Gold Sect is full of savvy people; with Song Jian’s level of intelligence and tactics, how could he possibly rise to power? To manage to be an Elder is quite already decent. Mo Hua then tossed the matter out of his mind. After returning to the Sect, he taught Yu Er some Formation for a while, then returned to his room, reviewed his lessons for a bit, and once 1 p.m arrived, he continued practicing Formation at the Taoist Stele. The Second Grade Eighteen-Pattern Formation given by Elder Master Xun, he had almost mastered it. Now, he was practicing the Nineteen-Pattern Formation. Nineteen Patterns is truly the Second Grade High-Level Formation. It’s also the limit of what a general Second Grade Formation Master can control. For an ordinary Formation Master, learning the Nineteen-Pattern Formation might require some time for comprehension, practice, and research to gradually grasp it. But for Mo Hua, the Nineteen-Pattern Formation is practically no different from the Eighteen-Pattern Formation. Benefiting from the Taoist Stele in his Sea of Consciousness, the strong foundation of his Divine Sense, and the quick recovery from Meditation Technique, his amount of Formation practice is almost ten times, or even dozens of times, that of regular Formation Masters. Practice makes perfect. And he himself has a high level of comprehension. After Divine Sense Sublimation, a blend of Divinity, close to the Great Dao, his understanding of Formation is even more transparent. Besides, with guidance from Elder Master Xun, as long as the Divine Sense is in place, this sort of general Formation, even if it’s the high-end Second Grade Nineteen-Pattern Formation, he learns it swiftly. Practicing Nineteen-Pattern Formation also rather significantly enhances the Divine Sense. But this enhancement is still far from enough. Because beyond the Nineteen Patterns is the great hurdle of Twentieth Patterns, separated by the Heavenly Chasm. Above this, each bit of progress requires a vast amount of Divine Sense. Mo Hua sighed slightly. "It truly is too slow; at this rate, I’m afraid I won’t be able to give Elder Master Xun any surprises..." He still needs to find some other methods. Mo Hua thought for a moment and immediately sent a transmission to Gu Changhuai: "Uncle Gu, how is the matchmaking going?" Soon, Gu Changhuai corrected, looking rather upset: "It’s not matchmaking, it’s investigating a case." "Mm-hmm, investigating a case." "There are clues." Mo Hua’s eyes lit up, "What clues?" Gu Changhuai didn’t say, but hesitated for a moment before furrowing his brows and saying, "On my aunt’s side..." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎 "Don’t worry, leave it to me!" Mo Hua assured boldly. Gu Changhuai sighed, then said: "That woman named Hua, I took the initiative to meet with her, she didn’t refuse..." "Mm-hmm." Mo Hua nodded. Uncle Gu showed some progress after all. Yet, that Instructor Hua agreed so simply, Mo Hua felt a bit suspicious. But then he thought, it might be due to Uncle Gu’s face that the woman didn’t refuse. After all, whether male or female, being good-looking does indeed serve well. Gu Changhuai continued, "I invited... that woman to dine in a private room at a restaurant in Hundred Flowers City. During the meal, I patiently chatted with her off and on, but didn’t gain much." "This woman kept a fake smile on her face, talked without leaving a trace, obviously quite guarded. When key topics arose, she either pretended to be reserved and smiled without speaking or acted coquettishly, tossing her head and batting her eyes, really annoying..." Mo Hua: "..." He imagined the scene at that time and internally criticized: Pretending to be reserved, smiling without speaking, tossing her head and batting her eyes, isn’t that showing goodwill towards you... Alas, it’s a pity Uncle Gu, who’s been a Supervisor too long, has a brain that works a bit differently from others. That Instructor Hua truly threw her seductive glances at a blind man. "Then what?" Mo Hua asked again. "Afterward, I simply sent her back to the Sect..." Gu Changhuai said. Mo Hua couldn’t help but say, "That’s it?" Gu Changhuai: "What else do you want?" "Alright," Mo Hua sighed, "Then the clues? Surely there’s more than just this..." "Mm," Gu Changhuai said, "During the meal, she inadvertently said a few words..." "What words?" Gu Changhuai: "I asked her, when not teaching at the Sect, what does she usually do? She said cultivation, preparing lessons, occasionally going out with some sisters to buy flowers, making Flower Pills, or going to Bai Xiang Pavilion to buy some rouge..." Mo Hua pondered these words in his mind, then frowned, "These are very ordinary things, aren’t they?" "These words are indeed very ordinary." Gu Changhuai said, "But when she said them, her tone changed slightly, her expression became a bit tense, and her gaze subconsciously evaded, as if suddenly realizing something she shouldn’t have mentioned." "The words are not the problem, but her demeanor is. "And that demeanor was fleeting; afterward, her smile widened, she became warmer to me, even deliberately drew close and poured me wine..." "Clearly trying to use her looks to distract me from what she said." Mo Hua paused for a moment. For a moment, she genuinely felt Uncle Gu was impressive... Observing keenly, staying composed, unfazed by charm. "Do you know which words are problematic?" Mo Hua asked. Gu Changhuai nodded, "Bai Xiang Pavilion." "Bai Xiang Pavilion?" Gu Changhuai mused for a moment, then said: "I recalled carefully, when she said these three words, her expression was normal, but afterward, she clearly paused, then immediately realized she shouldn’t have said these three words and tried to cover it up... "Is there a Bai Xiang Pavilion in Hundred Flowers City?" Mo Hua asked. "Yes," Gu Changhuai said, "I had Gu An and Gu Quan investigate, there are four Bai Xiang Pavilions in Hundred Flowers City, but that woman typically only goes to one, and this Bai Xiang Pavilion is also known as ’Bai Xiang Pavilion.’
