Chapter 59: What? Slow Down Time? Wait For Me

In Qingyun Dao Sect.

Ye Ping followed Chen Lingrou to the door of Wang Zhuoyu’s residence.

In fact, Ye Ping purely just wanted to go to the Sutra Pavilion to find some relevant information.

After all, making time slow down a little was a Dharmic Dao that was probably not to be taken lightly.

It was definitely not a trivial matter since it concerned time and space.

Hence, Ye Ping didn’t carry any hopes at all.

However, since Chen Lingrou was that enthusiastic, Ye Ping naturally wouldn’t turn her down. Thus, he walked over with her.

“Senior Brother Wang!”

“Senior Brother Wang!”

Standing outside, Chen Lingrou knocked on the door.

After a moment, the door was opened and Wang Zhuoyu popped his head out.

Compared to Su Changyu, Xu Luochen, Xiao Muxue, and Chen Lingrou, Wang Zhuoyu’s looks were mediocre. He looked just like an ordinary person.

However, Ye Ping dared not belittle Wang Zhuoyu. After all, those that were more ordinary were usually stronger. Ye Ping called it ‘the law of culprits never leaving behind any evidence’.

He had deduced that theory based on murder mystery novels. The most ordinary characters who did not have any motive to kill were usually more likely to be murderers.

Through this theory, it could be concluded that peerless experts didn’t care about fame and fortune since they chose to remain anonymous. Hence, their auras and images would change too because they just wanted to live like normal people.

People like Su Changyu and Xiao Muxue didn’t count because they wanted to change their auras, but unfortunately, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t hide the fact that they were peerless experts.

However, Wang Zhuoyu was different from them as he managed to disguise himself as an ordinary person. If not for his wits, Ye Ping would have really been deceived by Wang Zhuoyu.

“What’s the matter?”

Wang Zhuoyu looked a little silly. He popped his head out and looked at Chen Lingrou, after which he glanced at Ye Ping with some bewilderment in his eyes.

For the past few days, he had been preparing for the battle array formation master assessment. He didn’t want to be like the wastrel Xu Luochen who had failed the alchemy assessment seven times.

If there was nothing serious, he didn’t want others to disturb him.

“Senior Brother Wang, Little Junior Brother has some questions about time to ask you. I remember you saying something about time back then, so I asked him to come consult you.”

Chen Lingrou said helpfully.

However, her words made Wang Zhuoyu dumbfounded.

‘Time?’

‘What time?’

‘What are you talking about?’

Wang Zhuoyu was a little confused and did not quite understand what she was referring to.

Seeing the confusion in Wang Zhuoyu’s eyes, Ye Ping hurriedly spoke up.

“Senior Brother Wang, here’s what happened. Eldest Senior Brother imparted the Sword Dao to me, but comprehending the Dao everyday is very time-consuming so I was wondering if there are any solutions to make the flow of time slow down. Of course, if it’s a complicated or troublesome matter, just forget it.”

Ye Ping simply asked the question that he had in mind.

After hearing his words, Wang Zhuoyu was even more bewildered.

‘Let time slow down a bit?’

‘Are you teasing me?’

‘If I can make time pass slower, why would I be hiding in my room everyday to study and memorize?’

‘I want time to pass more slowly too’

‘Why did you ask me such a question?’

‘How can you ask such a question?’

However, Chen Lingrou spoke up before Wang Zhuoyu could answer.

“Senior Brother Wang, I remember you mentioning that you have an array formation that can slow down time.”

Chen Lingrou looked at Wang Zhuoyu, full of curiosity.

As soon as she said that, Ye Ping’s eyes were full of hope and expectations.

Wang Zhuoyu was dumbstruck.

‘Since when have I ever said that?’

‘Junior Sister, don’t babble such nonsense.’

‘Wait...’

Wang Zhuoyu froze.

He seemed to have recalled it.

However, Wang Zhuoyu was soon puzzled.

He remembered saying those words.

However, it was only theoretical.

Wang Zhuoyu recalled everything.

About five or six years ago, he read a book on the Dao of array formations, which Daoist Tai Hua had bought from a bookstall for him.

It was just a theoretical book. After reading it back then, he was utterly astonished, but after comprehending the Dao, Wang Zhuoyu knew that that book was just an exaggeration.

The array formation could indeed slow down time.

However, the problem was that the conditions needed were very harsh and only experts in array formations could set up such an array formation.

The main thing was that it concerned time. If it was just a concealment technique, it would be alright. It was simple to make daytime seem like nighttime.

However, he couldn’t make time slow down.

‘No, no one in the entire world of immortal cultivation can do it.’

‘What makes you think i can do it?’

‘Little Junior Sister, are you too engrossed in acting?’

‘The Sect Leader told us to pretend to be supreme experts, but do you really think we are experts?’

‘Thanks, I feel flattered.’

Wang Zhuoyu scorned in his heart.

He had to prepare for the array formation master assessment during this period of time and another thing was that he did not dare to teach Ye Ping.

Su Changyu dared to teach him because he was shameless enough to do so.

Xu Luochen dared to do so because he was even more shameless than Su Changyu.

However, Wang Zhuoyu cared about his pride.

At his current standards, he rarely dared not teach Ye Ping. He couldn’t even pass his array formation assessment, what right did he have to impart teachings to Ye Ping?

Hence, he declined to teach Ye Ping about array formations.

However, he didn’t expect to one day fall into their hands.

“Senior Brother Wang, since Little Junior Brother is a disciple of the Qingyun Dao Sect, we are all a family. Why do you have to be so selfish?”

Chen Lingrou continued to speak.

That made Wang Zhuoyu feel completely embarrassed.

He looked at Ye Ping again to see that his eyes were full of expectations.

‘If I refuse, wouldn’t I be offending Little Junior Brother? If he gets upset and leaves the sect, the Sect Leader is going to beat me up.’

Thinking of this, Wang Zhuoyu clenched his teeth and looked at Ye Ping. “I’m busy with some things lately so I don’t have the time to teach you array formations, but since you have the intention to learn, I’ll write down some of my insights for you. Some of the array formations are related to time so take it back with you and study it well. If you can master something, you’re very talented. If not, I’ll teach you personally after I finish what I have to do.”

Wang Zhuoyu said.

“Thank you, Senior Brother Wang. I will definitely work hard.”

Hearing that there was really something about a time array formation, Ye Ping was instantly overjoyed as he bowed to Wang Zhuoyu.

However, Wang Zhuoyu didn’t answer and simply closed the door to fret over it alone in the room.

“Little Junior Sister, Little Junior Sister, you’ve landed me in trouble.”

“Hey! What do I do? What do I do!?!”

“Where can I get a time array formation for you?”

“If I had such a thing, wouldn’t I be using it myself?”

In the room, pangs of anxiety engulfed Wang Zhuoyu and he continuously muttered to himself while walking back and forth.

However, after 15 minutes, Wang Zhuoyu suddenly froze and couldn’t help but slap his own thigh.

“Yeah, I’ll just make one up on the spot and give it to him. Anyway, since we’re trying to stall for time, I might as well be more thorough.”

Thinking of this, Wang Zhuoyu immediately returned to his desk.

He took out a blank book, which was a book that he used to jot down array formations. He then thought about it for a while before writing.

Wang Zhuoyu was extremely fast when writing, partly because he was a bit anxious, and partly because he still had some recollections.

The book that he had read was still fresh in his memory and he silently wrote down his personal understanding.

‘As for whether he can understand it or not...’

‘Who can understand it?’

If Ye Ping could learn it, he would lie down and let Ye Ping turn him into an array formation.

Just like that, he penned down thousands of words worth of insights in two hours.

After he was done, Wang Zhuoyu grabbed the book and pushed open the room door.

Ye Ping and Chen Lingrou were waiting quietly outside the door.

After the door opened, Ye Ping immediately cast him a look full of expectation.

“Little Junior Brother, these are my lifelong insights. Since you’re a disciple of the Qingyun Dao Sect, I won’t be selfish with you, but remember to burn it after reading it. If this insight spreads, it’ll probably lead to a great disaster. Do you understand?”

Wang Zhuoyu said with a serious expression.

Since he wanted to pretend, he would continue pretending and throw caution to the wind.

“Thank you very much, Senior Brother. Thank you very much, Senior Brother.”

Ye Ping looked a little excited and he grabbed the book carefully, not daring to be careless.

At this moment, Wang Zhuoyu continued, “Little Junior Brother, go and read this properly. Study it carefully, but don’t be overly impatient. If you don’t understand anything, don’t be impatient. Once I’m free, I’ll go and give you some guidance. Okay, if there’s nothing else, I have to go get busy.”

Wang Zhuoyu spoke, trying hard to look calm.

“Go ahead, Senior Brother. Thank you very much.”

Ye Ping thanked Wang Zhuoyu once again.

However, as soon as he said that, Wang Zhuoyu closed the door.

At this moment, Chen Lingrou’s voice sounded.

“I understand, Senior Brother. Little Junior Brother, if there’s anything you don’t understand in the future, you can ask me. I might not know but the Senior Brothers of our sect all do. That’ll save you from making a trip to the Sutra Pavilion.”

Chen Lingrou said with a smile.

“Yes, thank you, Senior Sister Lingrou, I will remember your kindness.”

Truth be told, Ye Ping’s impression of Chen Lingrou was getting better and better. She was not only beautiful but also kindhearted.

“It’s okay, it’s okay. Work hard, cheer up, when you become strong, I’ll count on you when I get bullied in the future.”

Chen Lingrou said jokingly.

“Don’t worry, Senior Sister Lingrou. If anyone dares to bully you or scold you, I will make sure he regrets.”

Although Chen Lingrou was joking, Ye Ping assured her in a firm tone.

“Okay, I won’t disturb you anymore then. Study hard. Bye.”

Chen Lingrou said with a radiant smile.

After Ye Ping bade goodbye to Chen Lingrou, he went to the rear cliff and opened the book of array formation insights excitedly.
