The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

One by one, the delicate stone statues were presented by the maids of the Hehuan Sect and distributed to each Dao Discussant present.

In the legends of ancient times, it was said that Fairy Qinghe, who had left these statues scattered across the world, would resurrect through them after ten thousand years.

This was a change in reality brought by Li Muyang after he had passed "Deadly Wild Grass".

Because of this, the world gained a Fairy Qinghe that did not originally exist.

But Li Muyang had already examined them carefully before, finding that among these statues of Fairy Qinghe, there was only a faint breath that seemed to exist and not exist at the same time.

The legendary powers of warding off evil, dispelling demons, or blessing marriages... these statues of Fairy Qinghe possessed none of them.

If there had to be said to be a benefit, the statue contained a trace of immortal breath, which, if carried day and night, might slightly influence one's cultivation and insight, providing a tiny bit of assistance.

But that was barely better than nothing at all.

This was an antique with historical value but without practical significance.

Li Muyang looked at the Young Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect in astonishment, not knowing why she presented so many statues of Little Wild Grass at such an event like the Dao discussing conference.

After the maids had finished distributing the statues of Fairy Qinghe, the Young Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect smiled slightly and said, "The objects in your hands are relics of an immortal from ancient times named Fairy Qinghe, and I believe you have all heard her story."

The legend of Fairy Qinghe was very popular in the cultivation world, and these relatively useless statues of Fairy Qinghe could fetch a good price on the market due to various legends surrounding them.

Furthermore, as the statues of Fairy Qinghe were scattered and quite rare, it was difficult even for a large sect like the Hehuan Sect to bring out dozens of them at once.

They must have prepared this for a long time.

All the Dao Discussants looked towards Liu Lian'er, puzzled by the meaning of her actions and waiting for an explanation.

But Liu Lian'er did not keep them guessing, instead, she smiled and said to everyone:

"The legend of Fairy Qinghe from ancient times is familiar to all of you."

"And the statues handed over to you today are the fourth question I pose to you all."

"Among the statues of Fairy Qinghe here, there are thirty-six genuine ones and seven fakes."

"The seven fakes were masterfully crafted by the Artifact Refining Grandmaster, Master Yun, to be indistinguishable from the real ones."

"Please examine the statues in your hands carefully, and after the examination, exchange them with the person next to you."

"Whoever can first identify the forged statues of Fairy Qinghe will have passed the fourth question."

Liu Lian'er wore a gentle smile as she announced the challenge.

At the conference venue of the Dao discussing, there was suddenly a dead silence.

Everyone held their statues of Fairy Qinghe somewhat bewildered.

Li Yuechan whispered in surprise, "Brother, what kind of question is this... testing Divine Sense and insight?"

"But isn't Master Yun reputed to be the number one Artifact Refining master in the world, his forgeries are indistinguishable at less than the Purple Mansion Realm?"

Li Yuechan felt that this fourth question was somewhat deliberately troublesome.

Nevertheless, Li Muyang reached for the small statue of Little Wild Grass on the table, looking at the lifelike statue in his hand; the sensation of his heartbeat quickening seemed even stronger now.

His intuition told him that there was definitely something wrong with the more than forty statues brought this time.

Before, Li Muyang had also seen a statue of Little Wild Grass, but he had not felt this kind of accelerated heartbeat and resonance then.

He frowned, picking up the statue in his hand and examining it seriously for a rare moment.

Seeing her brother not practicing, Yuechan also leaned in, her eyes wide as she looked at the statue in Li Muyang's hand.

"...This statue seems no different from the one we got before."

Li Yuechan muttered softly.

Previously, when she had been digging a grave, she had unearthed a statue of Fairy Qinghe, only for Li Muyang to snatch it away and play with it for many days before returning it to her.

Now, looking at the statue in her brother's hands, she felt there was no difference from the statue she was holding.

In response, Li Muyang nodded.

"Indeed, there is no difference."

His powerful Divine Sense from the Spirit Travel Realm swept over the entire statue several times, even delving into the interior of the statue to examine its structure.

Indeed, it was no different from the statue Yuechan had before.

Both had an aura of Little Wild Grass, wrapped in a layer of ordinary stone carving.

Li Muyang thought for a moment, then handed the statue in his hand to the Dao Discussant beside him, exchanging it with the other.

Seeing Li Muyang, who had been idling away the whole night, suddenly take this test seriously, the other Dao Discussants all glanced sideways.

But in front of Young Sect Master Liu Lian'er of the Hehuan Sect, no one said anything sarcastic at the moment.

After all, as one who was already out of the competition, there was no need to target him.

Sarcastic taunting at such a moment would only degrade one's own demeanor, and might even cost points with Liu Lian'er.

Thus, Li Muyang smoothly exchanged statues with others, inspecting each one in the pile for authenticity.

Soon, he indeed found two fakes.

These two imitations were made so deceptively well that the hidden aura inside them was remarkably well imitated, capturing almost sixty percent of the genuine aura of Little Wild Grass.

That was enough to deceive the present young people.

If Li Muyang had not been incredibly familiar with Little Wild Grass and attuned to its subtle resonance, his cultivation in the Spirit Travel Realm might have hardly identified the fakes.

Yet, relying on that subtle resonance with the aura of Little Wild Grass, the instant he held a fake, Li Muyang could tell it was counterfeit.

But he said nothing, exchanging quietly with the others.

Not until a seemingly ordinary statue passed into Li Muyang's hands did his heart almost leap to his throat the moment he sensed the aura inside it.

The Little Wild Grass's aura inside this statue was slightly different from the others!

Though he couldn't see inside the statue, Li Muyang could still confirm that something was possibly hidden within this statue.

Other statues only had the lingering aura left by Little Wild Grass.

But this statue contained an artifact left behind by Little Wild Grass!

And the accelerated heartbeat of Li Muyang indeed originated from the item sealed within this statue!

Li Muyang's heartbeat sped up wildly, and he almost couldn't resist the urge to split the statue open on the spot and see what was inside.

The sealed item inside gave him an extremely warm and familiar feeling.

But seeing the other participants of the Dao Discourse Conference and not far away, the Young Sect Master Liu Lian'er of the Hehuan Sect, who seemed to be smiling at him...

Li Muyang's mind quickly cooled down.

He held the statue in his hands as if he had noticed nothing, maintaining his composure.

But privately, he had already secretly sent a message to Yuechan by his side.

"Yuechan, secretly hand over your Fairy Qinghe statue to me."

"Be careful not to let others see."
