[Urban] The True Colors of a Lustful Woman (Complete) - 10-12

It was late at night
, and while ancient houses used oil lamps, there was no light on the road. Ordinary people usually traveled during the day and slept at night. Although Nan Kujin could see in the dark, he quickly dismissed the idea, considering that Qingyan might accompany him through the night.

The surroundings were pitch black, so Qingyan suggested driving the carriage to a nearby grove of trees so the two could have a good sleep and set off again the next morning. At this moment, Nan Kujin had a sudden inspiration. He created a phantom image with his consciousness, manipulating the carriage forward. While doing so, he pondered Qingyan's words. What did he say? A good sleep together? Very ambiguous… He

smiled meaningfully at Qingyan for a long time, startling the fox, who quickly waved his hands to explain, “Wife, I really didn’t mean anything by it! Although… although I’ve been forced to read quite a few books by Grandpa Liu…” He lowered his head shamefully, twisting his fingers around the hem of his clothes, afraid of Nan Kujin’s scolding.

Nan Kujin thought Qingyan was so adorable she wanted to devour him! She grabbed the fox and showered him with kisses, making Qingyan blush and bury his delicate face deeper and deeper until it was almost touching her chest! Nan Kujin chuckled at her adorable husband, got into the carriage first, but seeing the fox still frozen in place, she leaned out and, before Qingyan could react, pulled him into the carriage. (The audience was stunned—what a powerful woman!!!!!)

=====================================================================================

The sky was overcast, not yet fully bright. On a secluded path, a carriage was moving steadily forward. It was already strange enough that someone was traveling before dawn, but what was even more terrifying was that there was no one in the driver's seat of the carriage! Only indistinct shadows were driving! Heavens... could it be a ghost?!

"Master..." Nan Kujin was awakened from her sleep by a series of calls. Rubbing her sleepy eyes, Nan Kujin lifted her head from Qingyan's arms and asked somewhat indistinctly, "Wh...what is it?" "We've reached the foot of Tianzhu Mountain...and the Canglong Gate is at the top..." "Oh, then you can move the carriage into the woods over there for now. We'll wait until it's completely light before continuing our journey, after all, he seems very tired." With a slight smile, Nan Kujin looked up at Qingyan, who was still asleep, and gave the order.

"Yes." Nan Kujin wasn't worried; she knew that once the shadow finished doing everything, it would return to its own body.

====================================================================================

"Wife, where are we?" After a long while, the sun was high in the sky, and the little fox finally woke up. Nan Kujin looked at him from his arms, shifted to a more comfortable position, and said lazily, "Yan Yan, you little lazybones, we're going to watch the martial arts tournament~ Have you forgotten?" After saying this, Qing Yan suddenly remembered that he and his wife had "eloped" last night. Scratching his head sheepishly, "Shouldn't we get going now?" "We should have left a long time ago! But lazy Yan Yan was fast asleep, and I didn't want to wake you." Qing Yan stuck out her tongue, "My wife is so sweet~" She suddenly leaned in and pecked Nan Ku Jin on the lips, and Nan Ku Jin froze instantly... Yan Yan... do you know... what you did was dangerous...

The two of them grabbed their things and got out of the carriage. Nan Ku Jin glanced at Qing Yan and smiled warmly, "Can you fly?" Qing Yan nodded. "Okay, let's fly together~" Qing Yan stared blankly at Nan Ku Jin for a long time before asking strangely, "Wife, isn't that called flying with the wind? It's not flying, and we don't have wings!" Nan Ku Jin's lips twitched, I was just afraid you wouldn't understand! orz~

Extremely depressed, she summoned her broken wings, and Nan Ku Jin and Qing Yan rode side by side, listening to Qing Yan recount the strange and unusual things that happened in the demon race, while occasionally asking a few strange questions. Soon, the uphill journey was over.

Nan Kujin folded her broken wings, took Qingyan's hand, and walked with an air of elegance towards the two stern-faced guards. Both she and Qingyan wore exquisite pure silver masks, carved with beautiful patterns and two black butterflies, seemingly ready to take flight. The two guards frowned upon seeing these two people who had clearly never attended the martial arts tournament before, and blocked Nan Kujin and her companion's path.

"Gentlemen, please show your invitations." Invitations? Nan Kujin's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly behind her mask. Where did they get invitations! She had originally intended to blend into the crowd, but little did she know that today was the start of the martial arts tournament, and most of the guests had already gone inside. How could they possibly slip in?

"Brothers, we just want to go in and join the fun, could you please let us through?"

"No." Without hesitation, the two guards coldly replied. Nan Kujin hated asking for favors, but now, driven by curiosity, she really wanted to go in and join the fun. If there was no other way, she would just force her way in!

Just as she was about to get angry, Qingyan tugged at her sleeve from below. Nan Kujin turned her head in surprise and heard Qingyan whisper in her ear, "Wife... come here~ I have a way!

" Somewhat suspicious, she was pulled aside by Qingyan. "Wife, our demon race has a very common spell, called Asura Invisibility. Others can't see us." "Ah! Why didn't you say so earlier!" Nan Kujin's eyes widened in surprise. Such an amazing spell! She had to learn it someday!

"Well, but those two people in front of us are staring at us strangely! What should we do?" "No problem, watch me!" Nan Kujin straightened up and shouted, "It's just a stupid martial arts tournament! What's with the arrogance! Let's go!" After saying that, she tossed her hair, pretended to be angry, and walked away, ignoring the disdainful looks from the two people behind her.

When they reached a place where the two people could no longer see them, Nan Kujin smiled and hurriedly said, "Yan Yan, hurry up! My curiosity is killing me! I really want to see their martial arts! It'll broaden my horizons!"

Qing Yan nodded, "Wife, grab my hand right now, they definitely won't see you." Nan Kujin agreed and pulled Qing Yan's hand, "Let's begin!"

Qing Yan closed her eyes, her long, thick eyelashes trembling slightly, her thin lips parting slightly as she uttered words Nan Kujin couldn't understand. Nan Kujin didn't dare to breathe, standing quietly to the side, watching Qing Yan's delicate profile.

In a short moment, Qing Yan's eyes suddenly opened, and a pale blue light enveloped them both. Qing Yan smiled softly, "Alright~~~Wife~~~Let's go~~~"

Nan Kujin was no longer afraid, and holding Qing Yan's hand, they skipped and hopped forward! As they approached the two guards, Nan Kujin's mischievous side kicked in. She secretly whispered in one of their ears, "Can you see me? I'm a ghost! A ghost! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! China was already overpopulated at this time of year! In the vast manor, the usual martial arts training area was now filled with dozens of tables, hundreds of chairs, delicious food and wine, and beautiful maids—Nan Kujin was dumbfounded.

"Wow…I want to eat…" Nan Kujin's mouth watered as she looked at the food on the table not far from her. Her eyes gleamed with a predatory light. Luckily, Qingyan was too busy looking around to see anything else, or she would have been scared to death!

Oh, the food! Here I come!

Pulling Qingyan along, they started squeezing through the crowd. Qingyan, also noticing the food, was starving and eagerly followed Nan Kujin in their "struggle." Food! Food!

"Hey buddy, did you hear a woman's voice just now, right next to us?" "Yeah, I thought I was hallucinating! I didn't expect you to hear it too! But there's no one around us! Could it be... a ghost?" "You...you...don't talk nonsense! These days, ghosts are well-managed by the underworld. They've always kept to themselves with our Li Kingdom. How could they possibly appear here! Don't overthink it!"

Qingyan struggled to squeeze through the crowd. She had accidentally stepped on someone's foot earlier, initially afraid of being discovered, but seeing that person remain silent, and several others doing the same, she stopped being afraid and just stepped on them directly. Since they didn't say anything, what was there to be afraid of? Humans are indeed strange!

Actually, those guys were indeed quite depressed. As a great hero, they couldn't possibly scream their eyes out just because some bastard stepped on them a few times! Although it really hurt, for the sake of face! They endured it with resentment!!! ...%#￥...

It was finally within reach, Nan Kujin had even reached out her hand when, accompanied by a muffled groan, everyone saw Lin Jinnian, the son of the upper realm martial arts alliance leader, nicknamed "Flower Butterfly," with a smug look on his face, kick the renowned martial arts master off the stage. The crowd

immediately dispersed like a tide, but before they could hear the man on the ground groan in pain, an even more agonizing scream rang out—"Who's that?!"

Amidst the strange gazes of the crowd, a head of blue hair inexplicably appeared before them, followed by a captivating figure. Fair skin, delicate collarbones, and a long, light blue robe—the only word to describe her was—enchanting… (Qingyan pouted and muttered softly, "She is an enchantress…")

After the initial admiration came a wave of sighs—why is it a man?! And why is his face covered by a mask?!

At this moment, only one person stood on the stage, silently watching the woman struggling to crawl out from under the burly man. She too wore a mask; what was her expression now?

Nan Kujin cursed the culprit viciously. Li Xiaoyao, though pinned down by the man Lin Yueru kicked down, was a man! A man! She, however, was a woman! A pure woman! Oh, her slender waist! "It's broken..."

Seeing everyone staring at Qingyan with wolf-like eyes, and realizing she'd been cheated on, Nan Kujin finally exploded, roaring—"Damn it, which bastard did this?! "

(Martial Arts Tournament (Part 2))
Seeing everyone staring at Qingyan with wolf-like eyes, and realizing she'd been cheated on, Nan Kujin finally exploded, roaring—"Damn it, which bastard did this?!

" "It's me, what can you do to me?" Lin Jinnian on the stage crossed his arms, a smirk playing on his lips, looking arrogantly at the disheveled woman below. The ribbon holding up his long black hair had fallen off, and only his eyes, visible through the mask, revealed deep anger.

Nan Kujin cursed the handsome man before her inwardly. Why did he look so familiar? But there's no such idiotic, narcissistic, arrogant pig in my own mind~ Could it be that they were enemies in a past life? Under Lin Jinnian's somewhat disdainful gaze, the girl muttered to herself...

Resentment~ Resentment~ Let it all out and eat this pig with me!!! !!! !!! !!!

Qingyan saw Nan Kujin clutching her waist in pain, knowing that the bump must have hurt her. A strong feeling of heartache immediately welled up inside her. Everyone only saw a flash of her figure before Qingyan was already squatting beside Nan Kujin, rubbing her waist.

"You bad guy! Bullying my wife! I won't let you get away with this!" Seeing Nan Kujin gasping for breath in pain, Qingyan stood up angrily, pointing at Lin Jinnian and issuing a challenge.

Just as Lin Jinnian was about to speak, a calm voice rang out first, "Not only will he not forgive you, but I won't either."

Upon hearing this voice, Nan Kujin trembled, looking up in disbelief. It was him, no doubt about it. Although they hadn't seen each other for a year, she would recognize that voice even if it turned to ashes! "Mu Qi, how have you been this past year?

" "Heh! Another one. You women are all the same! Only good at relying on men! Especially you, you stupid woman, it seems… you have many men… Immoral! Promiscuous!" Lin Jinnian narrowed his eyes, glancing contemptuously at the woman, then at the two men. Sure enough, women were just bed pads; someone like him, he'd just play with them and then discard them!

"Damn it! What the hell do you think I am! Go to hell!" Hearing Lin Jinnian's last words, Nan Kujin, ignoring her pain, jumped up and began cursing without a care for her image.

Lin Jinnian sneered, "What a shrew! I really don't know what those two men were blind to even look at someone like that."

Mu Qi and Qing Yan's faces instantly darkened upon hearing this. How could he insult Jin'er (his wife) like that! If he wasn't taught a lesson, he might not know how to keep his mouth shut! A heavy aura of menace immediately emanated from Mu Qi and Qing Yan, and they both stepped forward, ready to go on stage and make a scene...

"Mu Qi, Yan Yan, step aside! Let me deal with this narcissist myself! Who do you think you are? Bin Laden, Saddam, or Bush? Damn it! You think you can fight me? You're still too green! I'll tear your tendons out, skin you alive, use your pig's trotters as a snack, and stir-fry your pig's ears as a side dish!" Nan Ku Jin slapped off her mask and threw it hard on the ground, truly making a "loud and resounding" sound.

Ignoring whether others were amazed, disdainful, or contemptuous, Nan Kujin rolled up her sleeves, head held high.

"You think you're afraid of me? You're not qualified! Don't try to show off your fancy moves in front of me! You'll only embarrass yourself!" Lin Jinnian said, turning to leave.

"Then see if you're qualified! I think you're the one who's unqualified!" Nan Kujin was on the verge of collapse, but finally summoned her broken wings and leaped into the air.

A seemingly chaotic attack left a breathtaking mark in the air, even the wind and rain seemed to change color! The crescent-shaped slash contained immense power, its silver edge mixed with black and white, turning everything in its path to dust in an instant! Hardness, softness, emptiness, fullness, stillness, movement, and agility! These words perfectly explained the power and momentum of this attack!

Those below, facing the oncoming sword energy, instinctively recoiled. Even Mu Qi and Qing Yan, faced with such a refined move, couldn't maintain their balance and both took a small step back.

Mu Qi sighed inwardly—indeed, Nan Ku Jin was no longer the timid girl she once was; she was growing stronger, just like him, constantly striving. If she didn't do this, she wouldn't seem like that stubborn and strong-willed woman, and he greatly admired this!

"Wife! Well done!" Qing Yan clapped her hands and jumped up joyfully, seeing Nan Ku Jin's impressive display.

Nan Ku Jin's eyes were now red with anger, her only thought being to teach this stinking pig a lesson to vent her rage. Otherwise, these chauvinistic pigs wouldn't know the power of women! Women weren't to be trifled with! She couldn't let these men look down on women anymore! Today, she would show women what she was made of! (The woman is in a frenzy...)

Lin Jinnian didn't care what to say. Faced with this move, he shamelessly rolled away to avoid it. His disheveled appearance is easy to imagine. Nan Kujin laughed heartily upon seeing this, hovering above the arena on her damaged wings, "disdainfully" looking down on Lin Jinnian.

"Hmph! Now you know how powerful you are! Watch your mouth from now on, or I'll beat you to a pulp!" Nan Kujin smiled brightly, feeling incredibly satisfied at his humiliated state!

"You think you can make me admit defeat with this little skill? You're dreaming!" Lin Jinnian raised his beautiful eyebrows, his hands moving swiftly, specks of green light appearing in his palms. With a shout of "Bamboo Tears!", a jade-green longsword appeared in his hand.

"The sword is not bad, but it's a pity it's followed the wrong master~" Nan Kujin sneered, landing lightly on the dueling stage, assuming a sword stance that looked extremely strange to everyone.

Lin Jinnian was momentarily stunned by this unfamiliar stance. What kind of posture was this? He'd never seen it before. But seeing the confident smile on the woman's lips, Lin Jinnian thought for the first time that besides being used as bedding, women could also be quite good at sparring! (Someone was ashamed... Don't you even know who your ex-girlfriends were? They were all from respectable families, only good at poetry and needlework. How could they compare to our dear heroine! Just wait to fall for her!!!)

"Take this!" Lin Jinnian's "Bamboo Tears" suddenly flew out of his hand, transforming into dozens of green afterimages, fiercely attacking Nan Kujin. "The Void Blade is very difficult to dodge, you can play around with it!" Lin Jinnian was convinced that she was going to suffer this time, smiling as he waited to see the show.

Nan Kujin knew that at this point, relying solely on her eyes was far from enough, so she simply closed her eyes and listened to the surrounding sounds. This action immediately caused a great commotion, and someone below immediately reminded her, "Little girl, are you crazy! Open your eyes!"

Mu Qi, however, didn't care and shook his head, saying, "Actually, what she did was the safest." Looking at Qingyan's seemingly understanding expression, Mu Qi smiled warmly, said nothing more, and continued to observe everything on the stage.

There!! Nan Kujin finally discerned the exact location of the bamboo tears, a confident smile spreading across her face. She raised her left hand, and a golden sword aura shot forth. No one saw anything clearly, only heard a crisp clang, and the bamboo tears streaked through the air like a green shadow, landing at Lin Jinnian's feet.

Nan Kujin slowly opened her eyes, a wicked smile playing on her lips. Looking at the somewhat surprised Lin Jinnian, she said slowly, "Now, it's time for you to taste my power! Take this!" She raised her broken wing with her right hand, and silver light began to flash intensely.

Lin Jinnian gently raised his right hand, and the bamboo tears obediently returned to his grasp. His eyelids lowered, a cryptic smile playing on his lips. Nan Kujin didn't bother to guess what this chauvinistic pig was thinking; she only focused on reciting her sword incantation.

The sword moved like a startled dragon, the aura like a rainbow. Her long hair danced in the air, graceful and elegant. Her long sleeves swayed gently, carrying a breeze, making her appear ethereal and otherworldly.

Emperor, Release, Unparalleled!

A golden sword light suddenly shot up, rapidly growing larger until it transformed into a gigantic golden feather, shooting straight towards Lin Jinnian. Lin Jinnian remained calm, raising his bamboo tear and shouting, "Entanglement Technique!"

In response, the bamboo tear instantly transformed into a long, emerald-green whip in mid-air, binding the rapidly approaching feather. The immense impact caused the bamboo tear's body to tremble slightly. The golden and green light intertwined tightly, but the golden light seemed to be struggling violently.

Seeing this, Nan Kujin raised her right index finger, shouting, "Break!" Powerful spiritual energy rapidly condensed in a short time, creating immense pressure on Lin Jinnian's spiritual power; the bamboo tear could barely hold on. Nan Kujin seized this opportunity, activating the incantation. The golden light surrounding the golden feather began to expand, gradually suppressing the green light.

Finally, despite a fierce resistance, the bamboo tear was still blasted away. Seeing this, Nan Kujin giggled, "You stinky pig, just wait until you get a big hole poked in you!" The crowd below watched everything intently, especially the woman's strange moves. So impressive…

"Hmph!" Seeing the golden feather getting closer and closer, Lin Jinnian sneered. Just as it reached him, he raised his right hand, his index and middle fingers firmly clamping the feather between them! The powerful force sent him staggering back several steps until he reached the edge of the stage before stopping.

"How was it?" Lin Jinnian felt his spiritual energy was somewhat disordered, but he still held his head high, flashed a big smile, and casually tossed his hair.

"You think you're so cool! You chauvinistic pig..." Nan Kujin rolled her eyes in annoyance. "A draw is a draw. I don't want to fight anymore. Let's take our leave!" Nan Kujin felt that she had already made a fool of herself in front of the crowd, and she had made enough of a scene. The most important thing now was to leave her beloved husband who had helped her and cultivate a relationship with Xiao Muzi. If either of them got jealous and started fighting, that was something she didn't want to see! Family should live in harmony!

Lin Jinnian didn't care that she left. He just glanced at her departing figure. No matter how powerful she was, a woman was still a woman. What could she possibly achieve? It was just that... this woman in front of him was somewhat different from the ones before. His heart wasn't so easily moved.

"You, no one can defeat me now! Well then, I'll take the Blood-Weeping Blade!" Lin Jinnian walked to the back of the stage in a few steps, and under the resentful gazes of the crowd, picked up the blood-red longsword. Lin Jinnian weighed the blade in his hand, a satisfied smile spreading across his face.

Immediately, someone below shouted, "Lin family brat, we can't beat you, and we accept our defeat wholeheartedly. We never expected the Lin family, a renowned martial arts family, to produce another talent in recent years! But this blade is related to the entire Li Kingdom. To put it simply, this ghost blade, found on the banks of that evil River of Oblivion, is shrouded in mystery. Although it's said to contain an ancient ghost, who knows if it's true? After all these years, besides bringing bloodshed to the world, no one has solved its mystery or subdued that ghost. So, please keep it safe and don't cause any trouble."

"Of course I know that. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now!" Lin Jinnian smiled confidently, carefully putting away the Bloodstained Blade and preparing to leave.

"Hehehe~ Who said no one can't beat you? I don't think so, do I?" A wicked laugh rang out. Nan Kujin didn't need to turn around to know that it was Bai Shang.

Even though they were no longer related, why did her heart still feel so heavy and aching?

She lowered her head, took Mu Qi and Qing Yan's hands, and prepared to leave.

"Sect Master of the Shadow Sect, if I remember correctly, we didn't invite you to the Martial Arts Tournament, did we?" Lin Jinnian looked at this mysterious man in the martial world with some displeasure. He was not someone to be trifled with.

Bai Shang completely ignored him, his figure flashing as he blocked Nan Kujin's path. "Little thing..."

"Don't touch me! If I remember correctly, our relationship isn't this intimate, is it? Qing Yan, Mu Qi, let's go!" Nan Kujin calmly turned her head away, pulling them to try and walk around Bai Shang.

"Listen to me, what happened that day was really a misunderstanding! Really!" Nan Kujin looked up at him, quietly observing him. In just a few days, the once spirited man had become noticeably more haggard. Was it because of her? Ha! How could that be!

"Sect Master Bai, I witnessed what happened that day with my own eyes. How could it be false? If you're not afraid of losing face, you can say it here. But I don't want to hear it now. I'm quite interested in that sword." Nan Kujin smiled faintly on the surface, but Bai Shang saw only coldness in her eyes.

"I knew you would be interested in that thing!" Bai Shang smiled wickedly, his eyes filled with helplessness and doting. He would definitely not let go! Turning to Lin Jinnian, Bai Shang raised an eyebrow, "Then, please enlighten me."

With a light touch of his toes, Bai Shang left the ground and landed perfectly on the stage. His noble movement exuded an invisible domineering aura.

"Hehe, I didn't expect another one. Stupid woman, you really have a lot of men!" Lin Jinnian smiled teasingly, drew his Bamboo Tear sword, and assumed a fighting stance.

Bai Shang watched him calmly, gripping his Soul Blade (that curved sword...). Lin Jinnian made the first move, his aura fierce, having already raised his spiritual power to the maximum.

The Soul Blade struck in that instant, Bai Shang's ghostly figure flashing repeatedly. Lin Jinnian's heart skipped a beat—so fast!!! He couldn't even see it clearly! He could only see the afterimage of his clothes! Suddenly, Bai Shang's extremely seductive voice rang in his ears, "That knife, since she wants it, no one can take it away!" A flash of silver light, and Lin Jinnian's Bamboo Tear was snatched away by Bai Shang just like that!!!

But when he looked down at the stage with joy, he found that Nan Kujin had maintained that posture, her back to the arena, not even glancing at him. A trace of disappointment flashed quickly in his eyes, why…

"Because Jin'er hates betrayal the most." Someone transmitted a message to him, and Bai Shang hurriedly looked up to see Mu Qi nodding at him, his eyes filled with pity.

At this moment, Lin Jinnian walked up to Bai Shang and reluctantly handed him the Blood-Weeping Blade. "I can't beat you, according to the rules, this knife is yours!" Lin Jinnian gritted his teeth in anger, all because of that stupid woman!

Bai Shang immediately took the Weeping Blood sword, leaped off the stage, walked to Nan Kujin's side, and handed her the sword. Nan Kujin glanced at Bai Shang indifferently, took the legendary treasured sword, examined it repeatedly, and sneered, "This broken sword?"

Amidst the gasps of the crowd, Nan Kujin tossed the Weeping Blood sword high into the air, its broken wings emerging one after another, and with a deft flick,

the Weeping Blood sword was severed in two.

Bai Shang didn't care about any of that; he just wanted to quickly explain everything that had happened that day to Nan Kujin

. These past few days, he had almost been driven mad. He missed her, he missed her like a madman. He didn't know why he had let her go that day! But just as

he
was about to speak, a faint and deep voice sounded behind him—Who is it? Summoning me?
================================================================================
Oh my god, what the hell is this?! Everyone was stunned. Bai Shang, even more worried, simply grabbed Nan Kujin and hugged her tightly. (Bai Bai has become naughty... taking advantage of the female lead...) Qing Yan and Mu Qi, on the other hand, tacitly stepped in front of Nan Kujin, looking righteous and awe-inspiring...

A completely black ghost covered the entire sky above the Canglong Gate, with blood-red eyes, jet-black hair, and a black hole that served as its mouth. No tongue, no body, and two green horns on its head… a veritable hellish demon…

Upon seeing this ghost, Nan Kujin had already cursed that damned Yama a thousand times over in her heart. "You old codger, instead of doing your job properly, you released such a dangerous ghost! What if I get a heart attack?!" "Look at my hair standing on end, I'm so energetic!!

" "Who was it? Who summoned me just now?" The heroes present, seeing this situation, all neatly covered their eyes, their fingers pointing at Nan Kujin. Nan Kujin was furious! Which bastards tried to steal this knife?!

"Hehehe, it was me… What are your orders, sir…" Nan Kujin chuckled dryly, snuggling closer to Bai Shang, but why did she still feel so cold? "Sir, please stop looking at me with those bloodshot eyes! I'm scared!!!" Swallowing hard, Nan Kujin was practically dying inside. Look at those hairs, standing on end, so incredibly sharp!

"You? You little girl can break the seal on my Blood-Weeping Blade?" The ghost stared at Nan Kujin in disbelief. Nan Kujin was annoyed, saying with some dissatisfaction, "What? I can't?! Don't I look like one? But I did it, so what?" Nan Kujin glared angrily at her almond-shaped eyes, speaking defiantly.

"Indeed, look at you, protected from all sides, how could you possibly look like one?" The ghost smiled kindly, but this elicited a collective gasp from the crowd below. Boss, stop laughing, it sounds like a ghost crying!! (A certain Chen was embarrassed, the ghost is indeed a ghost…)

"But I am! What are you going to do? Eat me???" Nan Kujin stared intently at the dark mouth. No teeth… Being eaten shouldn't hurt too much, she'd just slide down like a noodle! " Stop, stop, stop, Nan Kujin, what are you thinking?!

" The ghost looked at the little girl in front of it with some surprise. Why would she think that? It was a famous womanizer, invincible in the ghost realm, capable of charming countless young girls!

"I'm just a little hesitant to believe I'm going to be your servant." What?! He's going to be my servant? Waking up every morning to see this thing? Wouldn't that shorten my lifespan to a negative number? Good heavens…

"Well, let me tell you, my family doesn't raise freeloaders, so I think I'll pass…" Nan Kujin joked.

"What???? You don't want me??? I, the former number one expert in the underworld, am being rejected by a little girl??? This… this is too tragic!" (The ghost, quite dejected, squatted in the corner drawing circles.)

"Then tell me, what are your abilities???" Nan Kujin's tail practically wagging in the air; it was actually negotiating with a fierce-looking ghost. "I know everything that happens in the human world, no matter who did it, I know it all!" Nan Kujin's heart trembled upon hearing this. If that were true, then Bai Bai's actions...

She clearly felt the person holding her trembling slightly. Did he also want to use her as an excuse? Had she really wronged him? On the surface, she remained calm, but inside, a strong wind was blowing and a huge wave was surging!

She coughed, trying to appear calm, and said with great interest, "Then tell me, what was he doing in his room yesterday afternoon?" The ghost looked at Nan Kujin with a depressed expression. "Just such a trivial matter?"

"It's a trivial matter to you, but it's extremely important to me!!!" Nan Kujin shouted without any regard for her image, her face showing anxiety.

The ghost nodded. "That's easy, look carefully!" With a flicker, a picture vividly appeared in the sky, clearly showing Bai Shang's room. Inside, on a large mahogany bed, a man and a woman sat upright, their expressions somewhat grave, seemingly discussing something. For some reason, both had removed their coats. Although they were still wearing many layers underneath, the coats weren't a big deal, but most people would only remove their undergarments to stay warm. And these two? Besides, it was already late autumn; it wasn't hot at all!

Then, the scene changed again, and Nan Kujin made a dazzling entrance! Her face first showed shock, then a deathly silence. Her calmness was unsettling.

The man on the bed saw Nan Kujin arrive and beckoned her over, but Nan Kujin remained indifferent, offering no response. Then, for some inexplicable reason, the woman on the bed let out a groan, causing the group of heroes below to blush. Except for Nan Kujin. She was increasingly alarmed; why was it so different from what she had seen before?

Then, Nan Kujin angrily grabbed the vase from the table and, to the man's shock, splashed it all over them. The man, for some reason enraged, slapped the woman, cursed her as a bitch, and hurriedly chased after Nan Kujin.

That's all there was to the scene, but Nan Kujin was filled with doubt. How…could this be?

Bai Shang leaned down and whispered in her ear, “Little thing, I've figured everything out, but you haven't given me a chance to explain. At first, I thought you saw our coats and assumed we were going to do *that*, which is why you were so flustered. I didn't expect there to be something else going on. Let's go back and explain, okay? I missed you so much…”

Except for the last sentence, Nan Kujin could accept the rest…he wasn't…uh…no…what about Qingyan? And…he'd keep bothering her all night…

Nan Kujin gave Bai Shang a warm, apologetic smile. "Bai Bai... I'm so sorry... I actually..." "Don't say anything, I don't blame you." To Bai Shang, her not leaving him was the best thing. Looking at that long-lost smile, Bai Shang smiled wickedly and placed a light kiss on Nan Kujin's lips. "If we're going to settle accounts, we should do it tonight, shouldn't we?" Damn... sure enough... Nan Kujin immediately had an unidentified object on her forehead...

"Did you see? Now I can be your servant, right???" The ghost smiled obsequiously and flattered. Nan Kujin then looked at Bai Shang mischievously and asked innocently—Bai Bai, can I give you something?

Bai Shang was a little confused, but still smiled and answered, "Sure, as long as it's from you." "Okay, it's settled then, I'll give you this ghost, no questions asked!" Nan Kujin finished speaking at lightning speed, afraid that Bai Bai would regret it.

The result was that Qingyan and Muqi helplessly watched Bai Shang's face darken. A certain ghost affectionately massaged Bai Shang's back from time to time. Nan Kujin… staring at Bai Shang's resentful gaze, hands behind her back, head tilted back, she murmured—"The weather is nice…" Seeing that everything was okay, Nan

Kujin
, protected by the handsome men, was about to leave. Looking at the envious faces of the martial arts heroes around her, she understood that there was a strong sense of contempt in their eyes. She knew perfectly well that some of them were secretly gossiping about her love life. After all, it was one thing for her to lack the demeanor of a proper lady, but to have so many outstanding men as her lovers, so openly, what else could it be but promiscuity in their eyes?

How could an open-minded 21st-century girl like Nan Kujin care about their outdated ideas? She proudly straightened her back, casually pulled Qingyan over, smiled mischievously, and openly pecked Qingyan's lips. Satisfied with the bustling crowd that had revived, Nan Kujin patted his behind and was about to leave.

Mu Qi was already used to this kind of situation. Nan Kujin's reputation for being a womanizer was well-known among the senior students a year ahead of them! Moreover, having lived in Shanghai, he often saw elementary school students shamelessly engaging in public kissing performances, which was about the same as Nan Kujin's behavior.

He glanced indifferently at the two people beside him; Bai Shang looked gloomy, while the victim was instantly petrified... Sigh~ Poor two!

Just as he was thinking this, Mu Qi suddenly felt a sharp aura emanating from Nan Kujin in front of him, and he stopped in his tracks. What happened?

Following Nan Kujin's gaze, he saw those "good" senior brothers who had almost taken his life! Everything that happened at the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion back then was still vivid in his mind!

"Jin'er, I'll take care of it." With a calm step forward, Mu Qi reached out and stopped the somewhat impulsive Nan Ku Jin. He had come today to avenge the past. But he wasn't entirely without hope. He knew all too well how much his Jin'er loved excitement!

Hearing this, Nan Ku Jin pouted her cherry lips in dissatisfaction. Though her face held a girlish charm, her eyes burned with a fierce fire! She clearly remembered swearing to the heavens that she would take back a thousandfold, ten thousandfold, what they had given her, without hesitation!!

"Mu Qi, I won't agree. We went through that ordeal together that day, and now we should be the ones to bear the consequences." Nan Ku Jin said bitterly, her fists clenched into the ground. She looked up at Mu Qi with such seriousness.

Mu Qi frowned. "Jin'er, they'll dirty your hands." "But they'll dirty your hands too, won't they?" Nan Ku Jin lowered her eyes and silently summoned her broken wings. Mu Qi smiled helplessly. "Why am I always so completely under her thumb?"

He drew his sword, Qingling, from its sheath and stood beside Nan Kujin. Bai Shang and Qing Yan had already learned about what happened at the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion back then, using their influence. Now that their Jin'er wanted revenge, how could they possibly let this golden opportunity to prove themselves pass them by? Taking a large step forward, Qing Yan and Bai Shang stood quietly behind Nan Kujin, waiting.

Nan Kujin pushed through the crowd, leading Bai Shang and the others to the group from the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion. The atmosphere became tense, a faint smell of gunpowder filling the air.

"It's been a long time, Senior Brother." Nan Kujin, with his sharp eyes, easily recognized the senior brother hiding in the crowd. If it weren't for his help back then, Nan Kujin and Mu Qi wouldn't have been like that… His calm yet powerful tone, the oppressive atmosphere, sent chills down the spines of everyone present. Even Lin Jinnian, standing to the side, cast a curious glance in their direction.

The long silence was finally broken by the angry rebuke of the Pavilion Master of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion.

"—Witch! You shamelessly stole the Sword King's Embryo, nurtured for a thousand years, from my gates back then

. Now, in front of all these heroes, why don't you return it? Justice is right here, witch, you can't escape!" As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd erupted in commotion once more. All eyes fell on the shimmering silver wing in Nan Kujin's hand, and some even mocked with jealousy, "No wonder the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion sent out invitations, yet the long-awaited Sword Appreciation Ceremony was canceled at the last minute!! It turns out a despicable little thief sabotaged everything!!" Upon hearing this, others immediately echoed, seeing that justice was on their side, they figured Nan Kujin wouldn't dare do anything.

The disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion finally breathed a sigh of relief, looking at their leader with satisfaction. The old fox was indeed cunning; their Pavilion Master was no ordinary person! It seems the Sword King's embryo is returning to their Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion today! Hahaha!

Nan Kujin remained silent, merely observing everything coldly. Without her intervention, Bai Shang's subordinates had already silenced the troublemakers. Even those who were dissatisfied could only grumble quietly.

Qingyan was indignant, "You people are so unreasonable! You only listen to that old geezer's one-sided story, but why don't you listen to my wife's words? How do you know whether that lewd old man's words are true or false?"

Her originally clear voice sounded muffled under the mask. But these few words infuriated the Pavilion Master of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion. What?! He's an old geezer?! What do you mean by lewd?! What nonsense are you spouting, you brat?!

Qingyan's words weren't ineffective; they were very effective. The younger generation in the crowd chuckled softly as they listened to Qingyan's description of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion's leader. The older generation, who called themselves heroes, however, paid close attention to the key points Qingyan made. Indeed, how could they know if the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion's words were true or false without any evidence?

The scene became somewhat awkward. The so-called hero who had been making the most noise earlier blushed slightly, but for the sake of his reputation, he had to retort, "Then why should we believe you? You don't have any evidence either! Just based on the Wan Jian Pavilion's century-old reputation in the martial world, of course we choose to believe them! And what are you? One is the leader of a bunch of lackeys who only know how to scheme behind people's backs, and the other two are just some greenhorns who appeared out of nowhere. Tell me, why should we believe you? Why?!"

"You..." Qingyan was speechless with anger, but he knew that as a young demon who had just arrived in the human world, he couldn't possibly win an argument against these cunning old foxes who had been in the martial world for so many years. Feeling somewhat dejected and blaming himself for being useless, Qingyan bit his lower lip hard and remained silent.

Nan Kujin silently reached out and grasped Qingyan's hand. The warmth from Nan Kujin gradually calmed Qingyan down. His eyes, like those of a newborn animal, were filled with helplessness. He blamed himself for not standing up for Nan Kujin.

Although Nan Kujin didn't turn around, she knew perfectly well what Qingyan was thinking. Facing their provocation, her expression remained unchanged. She didn't need to rush; after all, they hadn't done anything, and besides, they were the victims! Today, what she needed to do was expose the ugly faces of the Wan Jian Ge members to the world!

Turning back to Qingyan and Baishang, who were somewhat worried about her, she smiled warmly, her eyes brimming with confidence. Clearly, she had already devised a plan! Qingyan reluctantly withdrew her hand from Nan Kujin's small grasp, glanced at Baishang's somewhat displeased expression, stuck out her tongue, and moved a little further away from him. She never expected that men in the mortal realm could be so jealous!

Seeing that the time was right, Nan Kujin slowly stepped forward, walking towards the crowd. "Who says I have no evidence?" With a mocking smile, Nan Kujin raised an eyebrow, her cold gaze intentionally or unintentionally glancing at the group of scoundrels from the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, watching with satisfaction as their faces suddenly turned pale.

"Very well, then please speak, young lady. With all the renowned swordsmen in the land gathered here, are you still afraid of not being able to distinguish right from wrong, truth from falsehood, or to seek justice?" The leader of the Azure Dragon Gate finally spoke, and Nan Kujin felt much more at ease. This time, their Myriad Swords Pavilion's century-old false reputation should vanish like flowing water, right?

"Of course. You keep saying I have no evidence, but have you forgotten everything that just happened? That ghost is excellent evidence!" As soon as he finished speaking, the leader of the Myriad Swords Pavilion paled even more. Heavens! Why hadn't he thought of this move? It's over, it's over…

Gritting his teeth, the leader of the Myriad Swords Pavilion stomped his foot, his figure flashed, and a sword light, in that instant, viciously shot towards the figure that was gradually moving away from Bai Shangmuqi. Accompanied by a shout, "Witch! Stop your sophistry, just give me your life! Everyone, don't listen to the witch's nonsense!!"

(Part 2)
Facing the flying sword, Nan Kujin's face remained calm, her eyelashes unmoving. Trying to kill him to silence him? A mocking smile played on her lips. Nan Kujin channeled all her spiritual power, raising her broken wing with her right hand, attempting to block the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion Master's attack with a single blow.

However, Nan Kujin was only a novice in swordsmanship, with only minor achievements. Even with the broken wing as her divine weapon, compared to an old man who had studied, practiced, and comprehended swordsmanship for decades longer, it would be a lie to say there was no difference! The massive impact caused Nan Kujin to feel a jolt in her hand, and the broken wing was about to slip from her grasp. Seeing the old man's wicked grin, his left hand transformed into a claw, grabbing at the broken wing in Nan Kujin's hand. In a panic, Nan Kujin could only hastily retreat, her expression changing slightly.

Taking advantage of the opening, Mu Qi sent Qing Ling flying in a streak of blue light. She steadily deflected the bone-piercing nail that was hurtling towards Nan Ku Jin. "What a despicable tactic!" Mu Qi's eyes flashed with rage.

All the chivalrous figures witnessed this. Even if what the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion said was true, such a sneak attack was utterly despicable! Some couldn't stand it and criticized the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion for its ruthlessness. The Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion Master, busy with his own affairs, didn't have time for such matters. If he didn't kill these people, the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion's hard-earned reputation in the martial world might vanish in an instant! It was far better to bear a small, temporary infamy than that!

Glancing at Mu Qi, who had just ruined his plans, the Pavilion Master of the Myriad Swords Pavilion gritted his teeth. He turned his sword, aiming directly at Mu Qi's charging figure. With a crisp "clang," the two swords clashed, emitting a dazzling light in the air!

Although Mu Qi had learned all of Yun Chengzi's sword techniques, the Pavilion Master of the Myriad Swords Pavilion's skill was indeed not to be underestimated. The forceful strike made Mu Qi feel his blood surging, and his gathered spiritual energy somewhat disordered.

The Pavilion Master of the Myriad Swords Pavilion's lips curled into an imperceptible smile. He used his own sword to deflect Qing Ling from Mu Qi's hand. Before Mu Qi could react, his right hand formed a sword incantation, transforming his own spiritual energy into a golden longsword, which he brought down!

Mu Qi's figure flashed, his graceful lightness drawing gasps of amazement from the crowd below. Nan Ku Jin was furious. "Were you all watching a circus act? Didn't you see we were fighting for our lives?!"

The leaders of the Azure Dragon Sect, along with some highly respected elders in the martial world, felt that the current chaos was indeed suspicious. If Nan Kujin's words were false, then the Myriad Swords Pavilion didn't need to fight them like this. Justice is served; what are they afraid of? Even if they were framed, they shouldn't be so angry as to fight to the death. It seems the Myriad Swords Pavilion has indeed done something shameful.

The leaders and elders of the Azure Dragon Sect exchanged silent glances for a long time before nodding in understanding. Seeing that the Shadow Sect members were already fighting the Myriad Swords Pavilion members, they knew that if they didn't intervene, even greater chaos might ensue. The

Azure Dragon Sect leader, charging into the crowd, nimbly weaved between the Myriad Swords Pavilion members and the Shadow Sect's men. Without drawing his sword or using his spiritual power, he simply used his finger to subtly seal the spiritual power around them with his profound true essence. Seeing this, the seniors followed suit, and within moments, most of the chaos had been resolved.

Meanwhile, Nan Kujin was being entangled with two experts from the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion. While fighting, she kept glancing worriedly at Bai Shang and Mu Qi's battle, sometimes suffering hidden losses, looking quite disheveled.

Mu Qi, at this moment, dared not underestimate the old man before him. His internal energy was clearly far superior to his own; fighting him required complete focus. The sword techniques before him were as dense as a fine net, firmly covering him, and a moment's carelessness could result in injury. Mu Qi's face was somewhat gloomy, and he had already pushed his Illusionary Technique to its limit, coldly staring at

the sword tip about five centimeters from his nose, showing no sign of panic. The Pavilion Master of the Myriad Swords Pavilion sprang forward with force, and just as the sword tip was about to make intimate contact with Mu Qi, Mu Qi's hand rose at this critical moment, his index and middle fingers clamping down on the sharp sword tip. Seemingly unremarkable, a simple move, it contained all of Mu Qi's spiritual power. The Pavilion Master of the Myriad Swords Pavilion gritted his teeth, feeling the powerful true energy transmitted from the sword tip, and his body began to tremble with difficulty! They

remained locked in that stalemate, forgetting everything around them, the only thing they saw was the flame in each other's eyes! A raging flame that wanted to burn the other to ashes!

Bai Shang didn't even blink; at this moment, he was even more alluring than usual. His pair of purple eyes began to subtly turn into a beautiful and breathtaking red. The pure red truly shone like two natural rubies. His smile deepened, as vibrant blood flowers bloomed and withered beneath his feet… and he remained effortlessly basking in the air, the pervasive stench of blood filling him with a strange excitement! With the help of the few fruits of the Radiant Sun Demon Tree, Bai Shang's cold poison was not only completely cured, but his spiritual power had also greatly increased.

With a swift turn, another person's blood spurted from his blade, which Bai Shang easily dodged; he didn't want his clothes stained by these scum. Looking at Nan Kujin, he was shocked to find two experts locked in a fierce battle with her. "Hmph! Dare to bully my woman, Bai Shang? Don't you value your life?" A dangerous aura emanated from him, and his Soul Blade flew from his hand, instantly slaying one of them.

Giving Bai Shang a grateful look, Nan Kujin smiled faintly, her eyes sparkling, completely captivating her enemy. With such a beautiful woman before him, the desire he had just managed to suppress was starting to stir again! God… He really wanted to kill himself. This woman was his enemy! How could he be thinking about such things at a time like this?

Bai Shang saw the man leering at Nan Ku Jin, and a murderous intent surged within him. He leaped forward and swiftly and decisively killed him. Still not satisfied, he unleashed a sword strike, blasting the already dead body into dust.

“Ah…” Seeing someone turn to dust like that, Nan Ku Jin was terrified and staggered back a few steps. Bai Shang quickly supported Nan Ku Jin's trembling body and gently kissed the beauty mark at the corner of her eye. “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.” His gentle tone, accompanied by Bai Shang’s breath, soothed the fear and panic in Nan Ku Jin’s heart.

Looking at that rarely gentle man, her heart gradually calmed down. She had long known that Bai Shang was a ruthless killer, his methods exceptionally cruel. Now that she saw it, why be surprised or afraid? What he did was not much different from their killings. It was all killing, only Bai Shang killed more thoroughly, leaving no room for mercy.

Suddenly noticing that his once eerie purple eyes had turned a blazing red, she stood on tiptoe in confusion, "Bai Bai, your eyes??" Subconsciously raising her hand, Bai Shang frowned, "Isn't it because of those fruits you brought back, little thing? The Radiant Sun Demon Tree truly lives up to its name as the most fiery thing in the world. Now, whenever I use my spiritual power, my eyes turn like this. What? You think I'm ugly and don't want me anymore??" He glanced at Nan Kujin with a half-smile, making the other person both amused and exasperated.

The lines flowing down from his brow were smooth and beautiful, his lips slightly thin, their color warm like flower petals. Such a handsome, captivating, and devilishly charming man—she could never tire of looking at him. Nan Kujin hadn't had enough of him yet, so how could she not want him? She

gave him a playful glare, seemingly annoyed that he was still joking at a time like this. Smiling, she pushed Bai Shang away. Mu Qi's strength was still inferior to that old man's; she needed to help him. Bai Shang, of course, understood her thoughts. Although he felt a little jealous, there was nothing he could do. Was this the legendary "one thing subdues another"? He couldn't be fierce at all in front of her. Ghost Shadow and his subordinates had repeatedly sighed silently—comparison is the thief of joy!

Just then, a disgruntled voice rang out, "Hey~ old man, how can you bully people like this!!! Bullying a child with your age, it's shameful!!" Nan Kujin and Bai Shang looked up at the same time and were shocked to see Qingyan standing proudly with her chest puffed out, her mask thrown aside at some point. She was glaring fiercely at the old man, like a mother hen protecting her chicks, her eyes wide open in a dramatic exchange!

"What are you looking at, you old geezer!! Only my wife can look at me!!!" Qingyan pouted angrily, complaining... Qingyan, Qingyan~ didn't you notice the unidentified liquid on those people's foreheads??

"Where did this little brat come from? Go home and don't bother this old man while he's fighting! This isn't a place for you!" The leader of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion looked at Qingyan's childish face with some contempt. Little did he know, it was because of this that years later he was utterly thrashed by Qingyan,

and he never recognized the alluring, fox-like man who had beaten him as the little brat before him! "What did you say?!!!! ...

Before they could even react, a streak of eerie blue lightning suddenly descended from the sky, like a popping firecracker. The old man was easily transformed into a series of shooting stars, mercilessly sent flying by Qingyan's single blow...

What... what kind of power was that...? Ah... just one move... such a powerful person...

The sound of jaws dropping was clearly heard from those around them. Amidst everyone's monstrous stares, Qingyan nonchalantly clapped her hands, dusted off her clothes, smiled sweetly, and ran towards Nan Kujin, "Wife~~~~~ That old man was so weak, not even as strong as our neighbor's kitten~~~~ (It was only much later that Nan Kujin learned that the kitten was actually a tiger... a tiger spirit with hundreds of years of cultivation... oh my god~~)"

Qingyan blinked her watery peach blossom eyes, her face full of anticipation. She was as innocent and adorable as a child who had done something remarkable and was asking her parents for candy. Long, thick eyelashes curled slightly, like a pair of ink-black butterflies fluttering their wings.

Nan Kujin gazed tenderly at Qingyan, who looked exactly like an immature, naive child. Ah~ this husband~ possesses the alluring exterior of a fox spirit, yet inside lies a pure, innocent heart! With such a unique charm, how could Nan Kujin not be tempted! In truth, he had already been secretly planning when to devour Qingyan completely…

“Hmm~ Yan Yan, you… are truly… extraordinary…” He gave a helpless, bitter smile. He wanted to praise him as a truly formidable little fox, but the words stuck in his throat. What would happen if they knew Qingyan was an ancient divine beast—the Blue Fox? It would be no less intense than foreigners' reaction to giant pandas! Hmm... I'm thinking of carrying a wallet with me from now on. If such a spectacular scene really happens in the future, how can I not make a killing? At least I should charge a little viewing fee per person.

"Young lady, let's put aside your feud with the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion for now. Don't rush to fight. Let the young lady invite the ghost you subdued to come out as a witness!" The leader of the Azure Dragon Sect, along with the senior figures of the martial arts world, had already quelled everything and even watched the whole process of Qingyan flying away from the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion Master. He sighed inwardly—truly, the younger generation surpasses the older generation! (The older generation dies on the beach...)

Nan Kujin heard the leaders of the Azure Dragon Sect speak up, what could she do? Taking a step forward, Nan Kujin smiled warmly, "That's no problem." Bai Shang was alert. Before Nan Kujin could speak, he had already released the ghost from his soul blade. In an instant, all eyes were on them. Everyone from the Myriad Swords Pavilion had clearly witnessed Qingyan defeating their own sect leader. At this point, they could only admit defeat. It seemed that the fate of their Myriad Swords Pavilion was truly sealed!

"Ugh~ I was still sleeping! Why did you wake me up at this hour?!" The ghost lazily opened its blood-red eyes, glanced at the dark mass of people below, and said to Nan Kujin with dissatisfaction. "I'm too lazy to waste words with you now. Come on, help us recreate the scene when the Sword King's Sword Embryo was born in the Myriad Swords Pavilion last year!" She thought the ghost would readily agree, but to her surprise, it looked troubled.

"What's wrong??" Nan Kujin was anxious. Could something have happened again? Oh my god, why was she so unlucky lately?! She was having the worst luck ever!

"Um... um... actually, it's like this!" Seeing that there was really no other way, the ghost decided to just go for it! "Listen to me... Actually, I do have that ability, but after being sealed in the Blood-Weeping Blade for so many years, it's hard not to weaken! My spiritual power has plummeted. Back then, I was the number one expert in the Ghost Realm, but now, if I went back, I'd probably only be a lowly henchman! Sigh~ the world really changes... That power to peer into the past has prerequisites. You need sufficiently strong spiritual power, more than everyone related to the scene you want to see. The consumption is enormous. When you asked me to release everything about what happened to Master Bai that day, I already felt a bit strained, let alone now..." Seeing Nan Kujin's brows furrowing deeper and deeper, the ghost shrank back fearfully and said timidly, "So~ Master's wife~ Maoqiu (the ghost's name~), I have the will but not the power!"

The people from the Azure Dragon Sect frowned upon hearing this. Now things are really messed up. There are no witnesses left, the Pavilion Master of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion is gone, and the ghost's spiritual power is insufficient to cast spells. Everything they say is now difficult to verify!

The people of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, hearing they were out of options, were secretly delighted. There's always a way out!

One of the disciples, seeing everything was fine, arrogantly jumped out from the crowd and started cursing at Nan Kujin, "You shameless woman! How could we, the people of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, be the kind of treacherous people you describe? I see you're quite the charmer, quite adept at seducing men. Look at those men next to you, they all seem to have quite a background…" Anyway, nobody knows the truth now, so he wasn't afraid to say anything. After all, everyone was there; she couldn't just kill anyone. But looking at her delicate skin, she was indeed a beauty!

"Shut up! How dare you mention my master with your dog mouth!" Nan Kujin thought everything was hopeless, but unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better. Everyone stared intently at the violently trembling wing, and in a short while, a blurry figure gradually materialized above it. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a charming and adorable elf. Silver wings paired with a beautiful face—it was truly amazing!

Everyone held their breath, not daring to breathe too loudly, for fear of ruining what they were witnessing. However, the people from the Myriad Swords Pavilion showed no surprise whatsoever

; instead, their faces were filled with shock.

"Sword Soul!!!"

"How is this possible! A Sword Soul has appeared? Does a Sword Soul really exist in this world?"

05-08
No Retribution (Part 2)
"Tch~ Ignorant! You people with no vision dare to fight my master? You're too trashy! Don't you know your own limitations? Hmph~" The little figure drew a circle in the air, did a somersault, and landed steadily in Nan Kujin's palm. Resting its chin on its hand, it looked at Nan Kujin with curiosity. "Master~~~~~~ Thank you~ If it weren't for your diligent cultivation of spiritual power, I don't know when I would have been able to condense a physical body~" The Sword Soul smiled sweetly, two shallow dimples appearing, adding to its adorable charm.

"This young lady is truly blessed! To be able to cultivate a sword spirit at such a young age. A sword spirit is no ordinary thing; legend says it's formed from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, something that can only be obtained but not sought, and one of the things that sword practitioners pursue throughout their lives!" The leader of the Azure Dragon Sect smiled kindly at Nan Kujin, making her feel a little more favorably disposed towards him.

"Senior, I'd like to ask… what is a sword spirit???" Nan Kujin scratched her head, and after a long pause, spoke somewhat embarrassedly. It was truly a lucky break; she'd stumbled upon such a wonderful thing by accident, wasn't she struck it rich?

The Azure Dragon Sect leader was stunned by Nan Kujin's words. Seriously? This girl didn't even know what a sword spirit was? How did she cultivate this treasure? “Um… this sword spirit is the soul of the sword itself, much like how we ourselves have souls. Every sword has its own soul, but there are differences in quality. The degree to which a sword's soul is refined is closely linked to its master. Once the master's spiritual power and mental strength reach a certain level, the sword spirit itself will comprehend it and automatically materialize, just like this sword spirit.”

Nan Kujin nodded slightly after hearing this. “So, what are the benefits of this sword spirit?” “A sword with a physical sword spirit can better exert its spiritual power than usual, and its attack power will be on a completely different level compared to before. Moreover, when the master is seriously injured or in great danger, this sword spirit will automatically step forward and protect its master's safety at all costs. It is said that its strength at that time can only be described as terrifying. But over the years, only the legendary Sword Saint has cultivated a physical sword spirit, and this is all that has been recorded about sword spirits. However, the fact that you, young lady, can cultivate a sword spirit shows that you are indeed a talent~ Your future is limitless, limitless…”

"Hmph~ Do you even need to tell me? I chose my own master, don't I know that? What those people from the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion said was all lies!" She angrily waved her chubby little fist. Hearing she was getting to the point, everyone perked up their ears, listening intently to her continue. "You people, of course, can't judge people as clearly as we can. Even when I was still in the process of being conceived, I hated those hypocrites! On the surface, they act all righteous and awe-inspiring, but what about their hearts? They're pitch black! Profit, power, money, beautiful women—what isn't it all they want? It's disgusting!!! Especially the way they look at me, so greedy~ It's disgusted me for centuries~ That day, I sensed a very strong life force coming from the mountain, and it even contained a strange aura of death. Curious, I used my divine sense to probe around, and then I discovered my dear, beloved master~~" "Back then, I knew that this person would be the perfect master for me, so I was born early and signed a contract with him. But who knew that those villains, seeing that I hadn't chosen them but a stranger from the foot of the mountain, were enraged and tried to kill my master and that other person, attempting to break the master-servant contract. Unfortunately, we met that person's master. He saved us. That person's name was something like Yun Chengzi, and one of them was my master's perverted master, Lin Mu~" As

soon as she finished speaking, the expressions of the people around her changed, all filled with envy and jealousy! Even the usually composed Canglong Sect Leader's voice trembled slightly, "The Heavenly Mountain Spirit Saint is still alive? And he has a successor?" Turning her gaze, the Canglong Sect Leader quickly looked at Mu Qi. Mu Qi smiled gently in return, exuding an elegant and refined aura.

Indeed, he was a handsome man! Although he was somewhat outmatched when fighting the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion Master, it was only a matter of time; he was simply weaker in spiritual power. Given time, with some miraculous elixirs and a little effort, he'll surely become another legend in the martial arts world! How wonderful!

He nodded in satisfaction. His benefactor's disciple was indeed a rare talent, handpicked after all. (I wonder what his expression would be if he knew it was Nan Kujin who asked him to take him in.) But that Nan girl he likes… cough cough… let's not pry into her private life.

"Brother Mu, may I ask how Senior Yun is doing? Has his martial arts reached a new level?" Mu Qi listened to the Canglong Sect leader's question, feeling somewhat puzzled. "Senior Yun"? Seriously? You call him "senior"? Yun Chengzi looks so young! He looks only around forty. You call him "senior"? Is he some kind of old monster? Ugh…

Mu Qi smiled wryly. Don't overthink it. How could someone live that long? It's a lie, right? He probably only calls his master that because of those strange seniority terms, right? "Senior, please don't worry. I never imagined you were an old friend of my master's! My master went on a long journey a few days ago, and I don't know when he'll return! But my master's health has always been very good, so you don't need to worry."

Upon hearing this, the Azure Dragon Sect leader was quite pleased. He hadn't expected his benefactor to be living such a carefree life all these years! Years ago, Yun Chengzi had saved the Azure Dragon Sect leader by chance, and the leader had never forgotten this kindness, wanting to repay it. Now, having met his disciple, a huge weight had been lifted from his heart. Finally… he could repay his debt!

"Young brother, your master was kind to me back then, and now it's finally time for me to repay that kindness! This spirit stone contains boundless wonders. Carrying it with you will allow you to better absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, making your own spiritual power even stronger. Now, I'm giving it to you!" "No! Senior, how can this be? It was your master who was kind to you back then, not me. It would be better if you personally handed it to my master." Mu Qi smiled faintly and pushed the spirit stone back to the chest of the Azure Dragon Sect leader.

"Young brother, since you are also the successor of my benefactor, just accept this spirit stone! There's nothing wrong with it." "No,..."

"You two, stop arguing!!!" Nan Kujin appeared beside them at some point, snatched the spirit stone, and examined it carefully. The sword spirit sitting on his shoulder glanced at it indifferently, "Hmm, not bad, not bad, a good treasure!"

Hearing the sword spirit's evaluation of the item, Nan Kujin became even more certain that he must get this treasure from Yun Chengzi! "Yun Chengzi is already so powerful, what use does he have for these spirit stones? It's better to let these young martial artists put them to good use!" Nan Kujin smiled, her slyness written all over her face. "Hmm~ Senior, don't worry, if he won't take them, I'll take them for you! You know I know Yun Chengzi too!"

The sect leader of the Azure Dragon Sect didn't care about any of that; he'd already repaid his debt of gratitude and felt incredibly relieved. Suddenly remembering the Wan Jian Pavilion incident, his face darkened, and he shouted to his disciples, "From this day forward, our Azure Dragon Sect has absolutely no relationship with the Wan Jian Pavilion. After all, we don't associate with petty people!" His resolute tone had a significant effect on the crowd, and soon, almost all the sects severed ties with the Wan Jian Pavilion.

Nan Kujin nestled in Qingyan's arms, toying with the spirit stone in her hand, watching the Wanjian Pavilion members slink away with a calm expression. This was probably the best form of revenge, utterly disgracing the Wanjian Pavilion and making them unable to hold their heads high in the martial world!

With a satisfied smile, Nan Kujin snuggled closer to Qingyan, finding the most comfortable spot, while Qingyan held her sweetly. "Senior, we have other matters to attend to. I've already seen a great deal today, so we'll take our leave now!"

Although the Canglong Sect Leader felt he should extend hospitality and entertain them for a few more days, and was reluctant to see them leave so soon, he reluctantly agreed, fearing he might delay their urgent business. "Then, everyone, take care on your journey!"

Nan Kujin smiled, nodded, and the group turned to leave under the watchful eyes of the crowd. At this moment, Lin Jinnian, who hadn't spoken until now, suddenly exclaimed excitedly, "Wait!!!"

Nan Kujin, somewhat curious, stepped out of Qingyan's arms and glanced at the excited Lin Jinnian, asking, "You idiot~ What do you need my help with?"

Lin Jinnian then excitedly leaped off the stage, unexpectedly pulling Nan Kujin into his arms and spinning her around happily. His expression was probably no different from when the Red Army met their leader during the Long March. Nan Kujin, on the other hand, was in a terrible state, dizzy and disoriented, when Bai Shang forcefully pulled her out of Lin Jinnian's arms.

Lin Jinnian, ignoring Bai Shang's ashen face, kept excitedly asking, "Are you really the Immortal Healer's disciple?? Really? Really? That's wonderful!!!!!!!!!!" Good

heavens~ Is this chauvinistic pig having an epileptic seizure...?

And then there's Nan Sang again
. "I don't care what you're so happy about, I only know that I've never liked chauvinistic pigs." Nan Kujin finally caught her breath, composed herself, and looked at Lin Jinnian, saying this. "So, whatever favors you need from me, I'm sorry, I won't oblige." Hmph, you dead pig, acting all high and mighty just now! Didn't you look down on me? Didn't you despise women? I despise you too! Now you want something from me? Of course I'll agree!

"You!" Lin Jinnian was losing face. When had she ever suffered such humiliation? Those women would always be there for her, but this person in front of her… "What? Bai Bai, let's go. I don't want to talk to this person." Taking Bai Shang's hand, Nan Kujin walked towards Qingyan without looking back.

"Hey! You damned woman..." Ha~ See, see~ the fox's tail has been revealed, its true colors have been shown~~~ Nan Kujin sneered inwardly. She didn't even need to turn around to imagine Lin Jinnian's furious expression. Bai Shang's red eyes flashed with a sharp light, lost in thought. But he was probably thinking about how to teach this brat a lesson later.

"Hmph! No wonder my wife didn't help you! I hate you too! You have such an arrogant attitude. Your martial arts are considered good among these people, but you don't know that there are always people more powerful than you! If you came to our clan, you probably couldn't even beat a five-year-old child~" Qingyan frowned in dissatisfaction. This man is so annoying!

Nan Kujin looked at Qingyan in surprise. Huh? The little fox knows the meaning of "there are always people more powerful than you"? However, according to what he meant, he should have said "There are heavens beyond heavens, and demons beyond humans." But later, when Nan Kujin returned to the Blue Fox Clan and inquired about this, she learned that Old Man Liu, fearing that the mischievous and playful Qingyan wouldn't study magic diligently, would repeat this phrase to Qingyan at least ten times a day!

"It's still early, why don't we go down the mountain and find an inn to stay and rest?" Mu Qi walked to Qingyan's side, smiling gently at Nan Kujin. His jet-black hair slid across his white satin robe, and a strand of hair at his temple, as gentle as water, rose in the wind, lightly brushing against Nan Kujin's brow. A year had passed, and he hadn't changed at all…

Nan Kujin quietly looked at him, her longing finally exploding deep within her heart. It had been so long since she'd seen him; he seemed thinner, but he was even more handsome and charming. "Alright, let's go then~" With a warm smile, Nan Kujin looked at the handsome men surrounding her and sighed—she was truly blessed!

Surrounded by a group of handsome men, Nan Kujin skipped happily ahead, humming a little tune, "Yay! Maybe we can go to the night market tonight!" The men behind her gazed at her with doting eyes, their gazes binding and entwining her. This
fate must have been arranged long ago...

==================================================================================

"What are you doing here, you bastard?" Upon entering the inn, seeing Ni Luo leisurely sitting at the table drinking tea, Nan Kujin's eyes twitched. She was already annoyed enough by the clingy Lin Jinnian, and now there was this annoying Ni Luo too! Good heavens! Her little harem gathering had been ruined!

Nilo put down her teacup, her light golden hair reflecting a dazzling light in the sunlight. Her somewhat frail and pale face made it hard to associate her with a healer. "Oh? Why can't I be here? If I remember correctly, this shop isn't yours, is it?" A mischievous smile played on her lips. It had been a long time since she'd seen her, but it seemed she was living quite comfortably—surrounded by handsome men every day, a feast for the eyes, how could she not be happy!

"Hmph~" Nan Kujin knew Nilo was deliberately trying to annoy her, so she simply pulled over the chair opposite her and plopped down. Bai Shang seemed surprised to see Nilo, but still followed Nan Kujin and sat down beside her. He didn't forget to pull Nan Kujin into his arms, constantly asserting his ownership. Qingyan pouted, a little jealous, and reluctantly glanced at Bai Shang's restless hand before sitting down next to Nan Kujin. Mu Qi, however, was used to it and casually chose a seat.

"Golden-haired kid, do you mind if I sit next to you?" At this moment, Lin Jinnian came over from the side, pointed to the empty chair next to Nilo, and asked with a smile. If he wasn't mistaken, this guy seemed to be the kind of person who was at odds with Nan Kujin, and he quite liked the tone of his voice.

Nilo glanced at Lin Jinnian and smiled slightly, "It's alright, sit down. You're quite famous as the son of the martial arts alliance leader~ It's a pity you suffered a setback at the martial arts tournament this time, didn't you? You didn't get the Blood-Weeping Blade, your father is probably going to blame you, right?" "Eh? How do you know about the martial arts tournament? Sigh... not getting the Blood-Weeping Blade isn't the problem, it's just that my old man seems to have been poisoned by some kind of slow-acting poison lately, please..." "I consulted many famous doctors, but to no avail. Later, I heard that the royal family actually had a way to detoxify my father, but they had one condition! They said I had to marry that Eighth Princess! Good heavens~ We only met once during a boat trip on the lake, but who knew that the Eighth Princess would fall for me and now ask me to marry her! My father is very happy. Not only can he be cured of the poison, but he can also become related to the royal family. It's a wonderful thing, no wonder he agrees! But, I really don't want to..." She glanced at Nan Kujin with a wry smile. Now she should know why she wanted to ask her for help, right?

Ni Luo raised an eyebrow and glanced at Nan Kujin. She roughly understood what was going on. Looking at Nan Kujin's gloating look, she felt a little sorry for Lin Jinnian. "The reason I know these things is because I placed a Mirror Void on Sect Master Bai. This little guy can transfer everything he sees to me through his divine sense." Bai Shang's expression turned somewhat unfriendly when he heard this. Daring to put something on him? And he didn't even notice?

"Sect Leader Bai, you don't need to be angry. My insect is so powerful that even if the Jade Emperor himself came, he wouldn't notice if I planted it on him. Besides, this insect has a very short lifespan. It will die once it has completely transformed its divine consciousness into a vision. It's a pity I planted too few. I only watched half of the Martial Arts Tournament. What a shame..." Ni Luo casually tossed a peanut from a small celadon dish on the table, caught it mischievously, and looked at Nan Ku Jin with a grin.

Nan Kujin, of course, knew exactly what this Mirror Fu was. She glared angrily at Ni Luo and sneered, "So that's why! You deserve it, you scoundrel! Who told you to be so promiscuous? I'd rather die than help you!" "You!" If Lin Jinnian hadn't been watching so many men eyeing him, he probably would have already rushed up and punched her. Although Bai Shang had booked the inn, and there were only a few of them in the hall, Qing Yan's terrifying strength was enough to give him trouble.

"Hehe, stupid woman, you seem to have forgotten me! Don't forget, I'm also Lin Mu's disciple! Just because you don't help him doesn't mean I won't! Besides, with your medical skills, who knows if you'll kill someone!" Ni Luo was clearly provoking her, but Nan Kujin had that stubborn, unyielding temper. Hearing him say she couldn't do it, she immediately slammed her hand on the table and stood up angrily. "What the hell did you say? My medical skills can kill people? Don't forget, I'm your senior sister! If I can kill people, then aren't you even worse? How about we have a contest? I'll definitely heal that chauvinistic pig's father before you! How about it, are you in?" Nan Kujin roared arrogantly, completely unaware that the people around her were already shaking their heads helplessly.

"Alright, it's a deal!" "Whoever goes back on their word is a little dog!" Nan Kujin and Ni Luo high-fived three times, only realizing afterward that she had... well... she had been tricked...

"Wife... I feel like you've been tricked onto a pirate ship?" Qingyan looked at Nan Kujin sympathetically, then glanced at Ni Luo and Lin Jinnian, who were already making a ruckus and calling each other brothers, and sighed softly.

Shit… I realized it myself a long time ago… but it’s too late…

===============================================================================

“Mmm~ It feels so good after a bath…” Nan Kujin reluctantly stood up from the bathtub and carefully dried her body with a towel. When her fingertips touched her chest, for some reason, she suddenly remembered the blood curse she and Mu Qi had been bound together. Lin Mu had said that two people bound by a blood curse would be entangled for life. Actually, she knew that the blood curse wasn’t without a way to break it. But she wouldn’t use that method unless absolutely necessary. Recalling the madness of that night, Nan Kujin's face flushed crimson. She quickly shook her head, dressed, dried her hair, and carefully combed it, then meticulously gathered her hair high with the white jade hairpin Bai Shang had given her.

"What a beautiful picture of a woman emerging from a bath~ Little thing, you're getting more and more beautiful." Before Nan Kujin could react, a strand of silver hair slipped from her shoulder. Bai Shang predatoryly kissed her neck, his restless hands fanning her body. "Mmm... Bai Bai... Mmm... When did you come in? You... Don't move... Do you hear me!" Seeing things were getting out of hand, Nan Kujin immediately pushed Bai Shang away, panting slightly, and looked at him coquettishly. Her eyes held traces of desire; she was clearly aroused.

Bai Shang frowned, somewhat displeased that Nan Kujin had interrupted him. "What? You don't welcome me?" "No! I put a spell on the door, I was just curious how you got in!" Bai Shang smiled upon hearing this. "That's all thanks to the ghost you gave me, little thing! It broke your spell with ease~" Damn it... you ungrateful ghost, I'll make you pay next time I see you! (Someone is embarrassed... Jin'er~~ don't forget who that ghost's master is...)

"Now I want to ask you, what exactly happened that day?" Nan Kujin took a deep breath. Tonight, everything should be revealed! Hearing this question, Bai Shang sat down on the edge of the bed, somewhat troubled. "Alas~ I never imagined that the confidant I nurtured wasn't human! He was a spy sent by the demon race! He was indeed very weak at first, but later, he successfully stood out from the competition, attracting my attention. After investigating his identity and finding nothing amiss, I began to cultivate him little by little. Now, thinking back on the time he spent with me, some of his behaviors were indeed very strange. He often brought me many pills that could quickly increase my spiritual power when he went out on errands. At the time, I praised him for his competence. Now, thinking about it, those must have been given to him by the demon elders! They specifically sent him to carry them." "Give it to me!"

Nan Kujin asked with some confusion, "Why do the demon elders want to improve the spiritual power of someone like you who doesn't know anyone?" "Because they want to enter the human realm. However, there's an ancient magic array surrounding the Li Kingdom, and they haven't yet figured out a way to break it, so they want to cultivate their power in the human realm first. That magic array seems to have an extraordinary restraining effect on the demons, and that spy was able to enter the human realm only by offering the blood of a thousand human children as tribute. They've set their sights on me, wanting to cultivate my spiritual power now, and once my spiritual power reaches a certain level..." Use the waters of the River of Oblivion in the Underworld to wash away all my memories and make me a human servant of a demon. Unfortunately, a war for the throne recently broke out in the demon realm, and things have changed. I think you, little one, already know Mo Tong's true identity! That's right, he is one of the most promising contenders for the throne in the demon realm, and also the tenth prince, the current Demon King's most favored son. However, his elder brother—the third prince—also holds a very high position in the demon realm, and he is also trying to increase his own power. And the elder who was responsible for nurturing me happens to be one of the third prince's men now. They've gotten some gossip from somewhere, saying that Mo... "Tong has feelings for you, and they were afraid you'd find out about all this from Mo Tong and then tell me, which would mean all their efforts would be wasted! So they tried to make you break ties with me, so that I wouldn't know about their conspiracy, and secondly, if Mo Tong really did fight with his older brother in the future, I wouldn't help Mo Tong because of you, thus eliminating a formidable enemy for them. Unfortunately, I know all this now, and their conspiracy won't succeed. But I'm very worried; I'm afraid they'll target you." Bai Shang looked at Nan Kujin with concern, a rare expression of worry appearing on his face.

Nan Kujin looked at Bai Shang with some emotion, but still worried. "So you're alright here? What if they find other humans to train? Wouldn't the human realm be in great danger?" "No. I just asked my ghost, and he said the demon realm could never break that formation. Because it was set up by hundreds of gods in heaven working together, it's impossible for them to break it. So, their training of human forces won't pose a significant threat. If they create a demon, we'll work together to kill him. So, there's nothing to fear. See? Now you know I'm telling the truth, right? I really didn't betray you, little thing..." Bai Shang smiled wickedly, stood up, and reached out his "wolf claws" towards Nan Kujin.

"Wait, there's one last question. What about what I saw?" Bai Shang frowned. "That was a famous plant in the Demon Realm called Nightmare. It can distort people's senses or exaggerate reality, creating illusions and hallucinations. That day, I felt a bit hot because someone had put a pot of Nightmare in the house, so I took off my coat. That woman knew the whole story and made some intimate gestures towards me when you came in, making you suspect our relationship. I thought you saw me take off my clothes because you wanted to do those things, and I didn't know how to explain it to you, so... I didn't chase after you. But when I regretted it and went to look for you, you were already gone." Nan Kujin kissed Bai Shang's lips apologetically and said softly, "I'm really sorry, Bai Bai, I should have believed you." "Then tonight, you'll keep me company." Bai Shang suddenly leaned down and took Nan Kujin's delicate earlobe into his mouth, gently sucking on it.

"Watch out!" By the time Nan Kujin cried out, it seemed too late... Xue Nansang, dressed in red, stood before her, still in the pose of stunning Bai Shang. "Master Jin'er, today, the four of us envoys have gathered. Please, come with me." Ignoring Nan Kujin's displeased gaze, Xue Nansang scooped her up, sealed her acupoints, and leaped out the window.

Choices and sacrifices .
"Watch out!" By the time Nan Kujin cried out, it seemed too late... Xue Nansang, dressed in red, stood before her, still in the pose of knocking Bai Shang unconscious. "Master Jin'er, today, the four of us have gathered. Please, come with me." Ignoring Nan Kujin's displeased gaze, Xue Nansang scooped her up, sealed her acupoints, and leaped out of the window.

"Hey, you big ice block, where are you taking me?!" Nan Kujin felt the wind whistling past her cheeks as she was held in the arms of a cold beauty. It should have been a rather intimate position, but this cold beauty was truly an ice block, not saying a word, just charging forward... (Someone shouts: Charge! Charge! We're the legendary little Eighth Route Army soldiers charging into battle!)

"Big brother! Why don't we rest for a bit? There are some snacks over there!"

"Big brother~ don't be in such a hurry! How old are you? Are you married? Come on, let's chat, otherwise this journey is too boring~"

"Cold beauty~~ at least say something! I'm so bored I'm going to rot!"

"Aaaaaaahhhhhh!!! Cold beauty, say something! Stop this, okay? Why is the road so long? Why aren't we there yet?????? I'm going crazy~~~" Nan Kujin finally couldn't take it anymore. No matter what topic she tried to bring up, Xue Nansang always remained cold and aloof. She really wondered if he was mute! His facial expression never changed either. Did his facial muscles atrophy and he couldn't smile?

Nan Kujin had been rambling on and on all the way, and now her mouth was dry. She finally understood that talking to a cow was better than talking to Xue Nansang! If you talk to a cow, at least the cow will hum, right? But if you talk to Xue Nansang, there's
no response! orz ah~ (Note: orz means kneeling on the ground with hands on the ground, looking up at the sky speechless~)

"We're here." Oh my~ Finally, he spoke! Nan Kujin was overjoyed, but when she heard what he said, she felt a chill run down her spine. Holy crap! "You've got guts! I'll remember you!" As soon as Xue Nansang released Nan Kujin's pressure points, Nan Kujin immediately ran away from Xue Nansang as if avoiding a plague, glaring back fiercely as she ran. "I know I can't beat you, so I'll just use the invisible sword of my eyes to kill you!" With a

muffled thud, Nan Kujin didn't feel the expected pain, but instead felt incredibly soft and comfortable. Subconsciously, she raised her hand to touch it. Wow~ such nice skin~ Huh, what's this? Why is it so soft? And so elastic?

"Master? Have you touched enough?" A lazy voice sounded, and Nan Kujin was startled. She quickly backed away, waving her hands apologetically, "I-I-I, I didn't mean to..." What came into view was a beautiful blue-haired girl~ ocean-like eyes, lips that could drive any man crazy, a curvaceous figure, and an overall feeling of lazy charm. Looking at her, Nan Kujin suddenly felt like she was just a tiny, underdeveloped bean sprout…

“I never imagined our master would be such a cute little girl after reincarnation.” The pretty girl smiled, and Nan Kujin felt dazzled, as if all the stars in the world had fallen before her, so bright she couldn’t open her eyes. “Hehehe, indeed, indeed a cute child.” A handsome middle-aged man in a golden robe approached, scrutinizing Nan Kujin for a long time before slowly offering his evaluation.

Nan Kujin trembled. Why did she feel as if she had been stripped naked in front of them? “You’re the little girl! I’m already seventeen! And who are you? The four messengers of the Creator God?” Trying to calm her nerves, Nan Kujin frowned and asked in confusion. “Hehe, the little girl is quite interesting. By the way, are you satisfied with my son? It’s quite a coincidence!” Nan Kujin looked at the pretty girl in confusion. She was completely baffled by what she was saying! When did she meet his son?! Wait, she looks familiar... Could it be...?

"Qingyan!" Nan Kujin was truly terrified. Qingyan's mother! Isn't that her mother-in-law?! "Yes, it's my precious son, Qingyan!" The pretty girl laughed heartily, making Nan Kujin sweat profusely... Xue Nansang

walked over at this moment, his ever-present icy face saying, "I didn't invite my master here to joke around. Let's talk about something serious, okay?" At this, the pretty girl's expression immediately changed, and she became respectful. Even the uncle next to her lost his smile. "Master, let me introduce you. This is the Blue Fox God—Lan Qin, and this is the Dragon God—Luo Wei. Huh? Where's the Phoenix God?" "She's probably off playing somewhere. Nansang, go and drag her back." As soon as Lan Qin finished speaking, her silvery laughter rang out.

"Sister, who are you? My name is Kaka~ What are you doing here? Be careful of perverts on this dark and windy night~" A child with soft, short white hair laughed in the moonlight, clutching Nan Kujin's clothes with both hands, looking innocent and romantic. "Wow! Little brother, you're so cute! I was kidnapped by a bad guy! That bad guy is the worst pervert in the world! (Everyone hasn't forgotten that Xue Nansang is the God of White Wolf, right...) I can't leave now..." "Huh? Which bad guy? Kaka will beat him to a pulp for you!"

...

Xue Nansang, Lan Qin, and the others were all speechless for a moment. Was she even listening? And the more she listened, the more it sounded like she was indirectly cursing someone... "Kaka! What are you doing there! Come here!" Luo Weiyi saw that things were getting bad; Xue Nansang was about to explode! "Huh? Uncle Luo? You're all here! Did Brother Nan Sang send you? We've found the master, where is he?" "Far away, yet right before my eyes." These words truly seemed to have sprung out of Xue Nan Sang's mouth one by one. Nan Ku Jin shuddered. Was a frozen volcano about to erupt? That kind of momentum... it must be unimaginable...

"Ah? Sister, it's you!" The legendary Phoenix God looked at Nan Ku Jin with surprise, and after a while, she pouted and said, "I don't think so at all! This sister is so kind, the god used to be so fierce! So, this is what a god with a heart is like?" After saying that, she reached out her little hands to touch Nan Ku Jin's chest. Fortunately, Lan Qin reacted quickly, grabbing Kaka's two little paws and scolding playfully, "You naughty boy! We have important things to do first!"

Xue Nansang stepped forward, somewhat exasperated, and said loudly, "Master, you have gained the initial recognition of the Yin-Yang Ring, but to truly regain your divine status, you must first agree to one of our requests. If you don't agree, we won't tell you how to use the Yin-Yang Ring and awaken your spiritual power." After a pause, Xue Nansang lowered his eyes and said in a heavy voice, "Please, Master, forget everything from the past. Have no more feelings. If you are bound by emotions, you will never be able to return to the past."

"Oh? Is this a threat? Besides, I have a question. Why can't things be accomplished if you have feelings? This is just your own idea!" "No... If you have feelings, you will be somewhat soft-hearted when facing enemies. One day, you will fall because of your feelings. So please, Master, lose your heart once again. We will use spiritual power to seal it away."

"Why should I agree? Besides, I don't agree with your point of view at all. If it really has to be that way, then I'd rather not be a god. Without a heart, isn't that just being a walking corpse? People without hearts are often the most pathetic. I give up! I don't want to become a heartless person." Nan Kujin rejected Xue Nansang's words without even thinking. Leaving Bai Shang and the others was worse than death for her! She loved them; they were a part of her! Do you think she could give up?

Hearing this, Xue Nansang frowned. "But Master, the Demon Realm has been very unsettled lately. Only you have the power to control them. For the safety of the Human Realm, you should step forward! Don't let emotions ruin the overall situation! Please think it over!" "There's nothing to think about. Perhaps you think I'm selfish, but I want to tell you, your thinking is completely wrong! I definitely won't become a god. I understand the situation in the Demon Realm that you mentioned, and I also know that the protective array for the Human Realm is extremely powerful; they will never be able to break it! Alright, I don't want to talk to you people who treat emotions like dirt. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving." Nan Kujin gave Xue Nansang a cold look one last time. She didn't want to have anything to do with such emotionless creatures! Without any lingering attachment, Nan Kujin turned away gracefully, spread her broken wings, and left quickly without any hindrance.

Watching her figure disappear, Lan Qin and Luo Wei sighed heavily. “Nan Sang, don’t be stubborn. I’ve said it before, your thinking is biased, it’s wrong! Emotion is a very sacred thing, its power is not to be underestimated! After all these years, how come you still don’t understand?” Lan Qin sighed, murmuring. “Am I really wrong?” “Yes, and terribly wrong! Think about it carefully! Besides, haven’t you noticed that your master has changed? After she gained a heart, the life force she exudes is even more astonishing, and that’s because of the existence of emotion…”

Lan Qin’s words made Xue Nan Sang fall into deep thought. He wondered—was he really wrong?

Everyone stood silently, each lost in their own thoughts… “

Seriously

, that iceberg is really ruthless. Bai Bai still hasn’t woken up! But you can’t blame Bai Bai, after all, that iceberg is an ancient monster that has lived for tens of thousands of years, and a divine beast at that. It’s no wonder it’s strong! Waaah… Bai Bai took my bed, now I can only go to Yan Yan. Sleeping with him is the safest thing to do~ (I’m terrified that going to Mu Qi’s room will result in me being unable to walk tomorrow…)” Nan Ku Jin pouted, glancing left and right in the inn’s corridor, heading towards Qing Yan’s room based on her vague memory.

After turning countless corners, Nan Ku Jin finally stopped. If she remembered correctly, this was it!

Knock knock knock…

“Who is it? Wait… wait a minute… I’m coming.” For some reason, Nan Ku Jin felt that Qing Yan’s voice was different from usual. It was muffled, and there was an inexplicable sense of loss. What was wrong? Had someone bullied him? (Mou Chen laughed loudly: You little idiot, with his strength, who would dare to bully him!)

After a long while, the door creaked open from the inside. Qing Yan lowered his head, his bright blue hair falling freely, obscuring his face and making it impossible to see his expression. "Who is it? I'm going to sleep. Whatever it is... we'll talk about it tomorrow..." As soon as he finished speaking, Qing Yan tried to close the door and shoo him away. Nan Ku Jin had already sensed something was wrong, how could he let Qing Yan succeed? He took a step forward and blocked the door before he could, leaning against it and saying teasingly, "Really? Then I'm leaving~"

Upon hearing this, Qing Yan, who had been lowering his head, instantly raised it, his eyes red-rimmed, with one or two teardrops hanging precariously on his eyelashes, clearly having cried secretly. "Mother... Wife! Waaah..." Before Nan Ku Jin could react, Qing Yan had already hugged her tightly in his arms. A thin mist instantly clouded Qingyan's once clear, peach-blossom eyes, tears welling up and about to fall.

Nan Kujin panicked at the sight, tiptoeing to kiss Qingyan's eyes, gently licking away the glistening tears with her tongue. "What's wrong? Yan Yan, don't cry, you won't look pretty if you cry!" Her soft voice made Qingyan nod like a chick pecking at rice, "Yes, yes, I won't cry..." "Then tell my wife, what's wrong with my Yan Yan? Who made you unhappy?" Qingyan sniffled, sobbing, "Today I saw Brother Bai go into your room, and he didn't come out for a long time. I thought my wife would sleep with him tonight and not want me anymore! Waaah..."

Nan Kujin smiled helplessly. This little fox was really jealous! At this rate, wouldn't she be unable to touch anyone but him in the future? No way! She had to teach him a lesson sometime! "Hmm~ Who said that? My wife is here, isn't she?" (Someone glanced at Nan with disdain and muttered under their breath: If it weren't for Xue Nansang's attack, would you even be here tonight?)

Qingyan immediately burst into laughter through her tears, pulling Nan Kujin's hand while closing the door with her other hand. "Wife~ It's getting late, shall we go to sleep?" Nan Kujin mumbled an "Mmm," but her eyelids twitched simultaneously, and she wondered—why does this feel like something's going to happen today??

Qingyan jumped onto the bed first, and seeing Nan Kujin standing blankly by the bedside, seemingly lost in thought, she immediately realized—Nan Kujin was thinking about Bai Shang! Biting her lower lip in annoyance, Qingyan forcefully pulled Nan Kujin into her arms. "Wife, you're not allowed to think about anyone else!" Her resentful voice made Nan Kujin break out in a cold sweat again; the little one was really jealous!

Qingyan buried his face in Nan Kujin's neck with a smile, his warm breath spraying over her body. This unfamiliar yet intimate gesture sent a shiver down her spine. Good heavens! This little thing learned this move! Doesn't he know it easily arouses desire? Qingyan seemed to think this wasn't enough, so he pulled Nan Kujin tightly into his arms. Instantly, Nan Kujin's beautiful curves pressed against Qingyan's no-longer-childish body. Qingyan smiled, his eyes crinkling, like a cat that had stolen some cream. No! A wicked fox that had stolen some cream!

Qingyan gently shifted his body, the friction giving him an unprecedented heat and comfort! He closed his eyes slightly and continued his subtle movements. After a few times, Qingyan felt as if his whole body was about to explode, especially his lower body, which felt uncomfortably swollen. Her breathing became heavy. So hot…so hot…

Nan Kujin finally realized something was wrong. She opened her eyes, and although it was dark, she clearly read the message of lust in Qingyan's eyes! Good heavens! Not only that, but what was that pressing against her lower abdomen?! Nan Kujin was practically driven mad with depression. Afraid she wouldn't be able to resist, she pounced on Qingyan and devoured him completely!

"Wife…I'm hot~" Qingyan whimpered pitifully, his heavy breathing sounding particularly jarring in the quiet night. Just as Nan Kujin was wondering what to do, Qingyan grabbed her hands and pulled them inside his underpants. When Nan Kujin touched his burning desire, her mind went completely blank. Nothing remained but her subconscious calling out, "Eat him, eat him…"

Nan Kujin's hands trembled with excitement as she slowly played with Qingyan's desire. Feeling it wasn't enough, he simply got up and pulled down Qingyan's underpants. Wow... I didn't expect... Qingyan's... thing... so big, so thick... Swallowing in surprise, Nan Kujin's eyes gleamed green in the darkness! (Someone whispered: Did you see that? Wolf girl, wolf girl!)

"Little guy, you're so thick, so big..." (Sweat, while typing this, I clearly pictured a female pervert harassing an innocent man...) Nan Kujin stroked his penis up and down while uttering lewd words. Hearing this, Qingyan blushed, feeling ashamed, but at the same time, an indescribable, intense pleasure washed over his body like a wave, causing him to lose his senses and just keep moaning "Mmm, ahh."

"My lady...it feels so good...mmm..." Qingyan's jade stem grew even larger, filling Nan Kujin's palm, almost as thick as her wrist. Nan Kujin secretly admired it, her hands moving even more urgently. She never expected Qingyan to be so alluring; truly a vixen!

At this moment, Qingyan's alluring peach blossom eyes seemed to drip with water, his bright red lips parted and closed, and shy moans escaped little by little, arousing Nan Kujin's lust. "Faster...faster...mmm...ah...mmm..." Qingyan's moans grew louder and louder, sweat dampening the stray hairs on his forehead. His hips thrust urgently, his head swayed violently, his long, shimmering blue hair drawing graceful arcs in the air. His hands gripped the sheets beneath him, his breath coming in short gasps. Where was his usual innocent demeanor? His clear, pure eyes had long since turned into a hazy mist...

"Does it feel good?" Nan Kujin chuckled seductively, lowered her head, and took Qingyan's burning member into her mouth. She had only ever seen such scenes in books before; now she could only act on instinct! A nimble little tongue teased, licked, sucked, and kissed, and Qingyan felt like she was going crazy. Her eyes were half-closed, watching with intense pleasure as Nan Kujin ignited a fire within her.

"Wife...no~ ahh...I can't take it...anymore..." The inexperienced Qingyan couldn't withstand such teasing. With a thrust, all her desire shot into Nan Kujin's mouth. Nan Kujin was caught off guard and choked slightly. How could her cherry-like mouth withstand so much desire? Drops of white fluid dripped from her mouth, splattering onto Qingyan's body. What a lewd scene!

Reluctantly swallowing the liquid, Nan Kujin licked her lips, looking at the panting Qingyan beneath her with satisfaction. The intense movements had left their clothes somewhat disheveled, especially Qingyan's. His robe was half-open, revealing glimpses of his alluring collarbone. His slightly bulging muscles exuded power and beauty, but his skin was flawless, radiating a porcelain-like luster. His two cherry-red nipples stood proudly erect, their vibrant color creating a striking visual impact against his fair chest. His abdominal muscles were taut, glistening with sweat…

“Yan Yan~ You’re so beautiful…” Nan Kujin leaned down gently, whispering in Qingyan’s ear. It was a murmur, a sigh, a voice filled with sensuality that captivated the soul. “Ah~” Nan Kujin suddenly gasped. Qingyan flipped over, pinning Nan Kujin beneath him. “Wife… you’re so naughty… now it’s Yan Yan’s turn, isn’t it?” With a seductive smile, a “rip” sound rang out as Nan Kujin’s clothes were torn off, revealing his fair body, flushed with a peach-blossom hue, exuding a sweet, cloying fragrance like osmanthus blossoms. He grasped Nan Kujin's breasts with both hands, pressing and playing with them as he imitated the techniques in the book. His thumbs twisted and pulled at the orange buds, leaving faint red marks that only enhanced their allure.

"You...you bad boy..." Nan Kujin's coquettish complaints were futile. Qingyan smiled faintly, and though he had never been intimate with another woman before, he instinctively placed Nan Kujin's beautiful legs on his shoulders. Instantly, the woman's private parts were fully exposed, her small, vibrant flower trembling slightly in the air, opening and closing shyly.

Even though Nan Kujin had had such relations with Bai Shangmuqi a few times, this humiliating and lewd act was truly a first for her. Her body trembled slightly, Nan Kujin's eyes were filled with seductive allure, and she giggled. Qingyan responded with an innocent smile: "Wife, today, those books will really come in handy~" Before Nan Kujin could think further, Qingyan buried his head in Nan Kujin's private parts and began to lick them with somewhat clumsy movements.

"Ah..." A sharp groan escaped her lips as Nan Kujin ran her hands through Qingyan's hair, tearing at it forcefully. The immense pleasure sent her soaring through the clouds again and again. Qingyan seemed to have run out of patience. With a sudden thrust, she buried her burning heat deep inside Nan Kujin's body. Nan Kujin's private parts were already soaked, so this action brought no pain; instead, pleasure far outweighed it.

The tight flesh walls enveloped Qingyan's desire, and pleasure surged like snakes up her spine to her head. The man trembled, paused briefly, then lifted Nan Kujin's waist and began to thrust powerfully inside her. "Mmm..." Qingyan forcefully penetrated the warm and elastic depths of her flower, the rapid friction between her erect penis and the constantly writhing inner walls eliciting unparalleled pleasure, causing her to let out a satisfied sigh.

"Ah...mmm..." Qingyan's proud, enormous penis filled Nan Kujin's flower cave, smoothing out every fold of the inner wall. Each thrust heavily struck that tender core, grinding fiercely within it, causing Nan Kujin to arch her body involuntarily, welcoming each thrust. The enormous jade stem throbbed violently within the wet cave, causing Nan Kujin to tremble all over, even her knees shaking. The constantly penetrating cave gradually produced a sweet, full sensation, making her moan incessantly: "Ugh...mmm...faster...faster...a little...ah..." At this moment, they had long forgotten everything; beneath them, there was only a deeper union...

Qingyan was deeply intoxicated by Nan Kujin's hot, soft body, indulging almost irrationally. The hot, narrow passage tightly enveloped his desire, each friction bringing him unparalleled pleasure. The flower cave, convulsing with pleasure, sucked his jade stem even deeper, giving his burning tip even stronger stimulation. The sounds of groans, the slamming of flesh, and the friction of fluids mingled together, creating a lewd symphony. In the ecstasy of ultimate pleasure, both reached their climax…

After a long, long time, Qingyan finally collapsed beside Nan Kujin. Nan Kujin was too exhausted to keep her eyes open; the pain in her lower body clearly told her what had just happened. Nan Kujin gently stroked Qingyan's brows and eyes, murmuring with a faint smile, "Finally, I've had you…" Just as she finished speaking, Qingyan opened her eyes again, the dazzling light captivating Nan Kujin.

Qingyan scratched her head, smiled sheepishly, and uttered her ultimate goal: "Wife… shall we… do it again?"

Ah!!! No way??? Is this really Qingyan? The next day at

noon
, the sun was high in the sky, but there was still no movement from Qingyan's room. Downstairs at the inn, a group of people sat silently. The atmosphere was eerily eerie. The waiter, carrying a teapot, eagerly wanted to serve tea to this group of wealthy men, but upon seeing the scene, he paused, immediately turned around, and left trembling.

The atmosphere at the table was extremely heavy. Apart from a certain chauvinistic pig loudly chewing peanuts, watching everything with interest, the expressions on the faces of the others were truly varied.

Mu Qi sat by the window, chin in hand, gazing absently at the bustling crowd outside. His expression was calm, yet he couldn't hide the deep disappointment in his eyes. His fingertips lightly tapped the rim of the purple clay teacup, producing a crisp, melodious sound. Bai Shang's purple eyes held too many unreadable emotions, but his tightly furrowed brows and gloomy face clearly reflected his extremely bad mood.

At this moment, inside Qing Yan's room...

On the bed, pale blue hair and jet-black hair were intertwined, two naked bodies sleeping in each other's arms. Qingyan's long, slender arms were still tightly wrapped around Nan Kujin's waist in her sleep,

a faint smile on her lips, as if she were dreaming of something wonderful.

"Mmm..." A soft murmur escaped Nan Kujin's lips, her eyelashes fluttered, and Nan Kujin slowly opened her eyes. Just as she was about to get up, her fingertips touched smooth, delicate, white skin like solidified cream. Good heavens~ Last night...it seems...um...the woman fell into deep thought...Last night, if we really count, who "raped" whom?

"Hmm...what time is it?" Qingyan sat up, still half asleep, rubbing her sleepy eyes with one hand while reaching for the bedside table where she usually kept her clothes. She was busy all night, no wonder she was tired!

Huh? Qingyan suddenly looked puzzled. What was this? Where were the clothes? Hmm… smooth, long, and movable… why did it feel more and more like a human arm?

Nan Kujin smiled, watching Qingyan with her eyes closed, touching her own arm with a puzzled expression. She looked so adorable!

Carefully skirting Qingyan's arm, Nan Kujin's fingers curled slightly, a mischievous smile flashing across his lips. With a soft "snap," his fingertip gently flicked Qingyan's forehead. Qingyan immediately instinctively clutched her aching forehead, opening her eyes and glaring angrily at the scoundrel who had "ambushed" her.

But when Qingyan met Nan Kujin's smiling eyes, all her anger vanished instantly. Especially when she noticed Nan Kujin's jade-like body, a deep, rich red slowly rose from her skin, gradually spreading to her cheeks. Nan Kujin even saw wisps of white smoke rising.

"Wife~~~" Qingyan said softly. Her peach blossom eyes looked at Nan Kujin with a hint of guilt, her hands tightly gripping the sheets, her slender legs faintly visible beneath the white blankets, stirring a sense of longing in one's heart.

Nan Kujin leaned forward and gave Qingyan a long, lingering kiss, as if to comfort him. "Relax~ Don't you see how late it is? Yan Yan, do you want to stay in bed?" Qingyan smiled a little embarrassedly, grabbed his clothes, and awkwardly put them on. Fox clan clothing is mostly simple in style, its beauty stemming from the embroidery that the fox clan excels at. Human clothing, on the other hand, emphasizes unique and ingenious designs, somewhat similar to modern clothing.

Nan Kujin sighed, affectionately kissed Qingyan's cheek, and helped him get dressed. A light blue robe with silver trim, its flowing lines revealing a patch of fair skin, yet the size was just right, not revealing a hint of skin. The slightly wide sleeves revealed slender, slightly bent fingers, as if they were cramped.

"Wife, am I really useless? I can't even dress myself properly..." Qingyan pouted, her expression somewhat gloomy, looking rather unhappy. Nan Kujin tied a fine piece of jade to Qingyan's clothes, straightened the long tassels, and looked up with a slight smile as she retorted, "How could that be? Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, even demons~ Do you think I'm perfect? I'm neither ladylike nor can I cook. The first time I cooked, I almost burned down the whole kitchen. Don't you think I'm embarrassing?..." Before she could finish speaking, Nan Kujin received a look of astonishment and disbelief from Qingyan.

"Wife, um... you cook??? Isn't that what servants should do? How can you do such rough work!!!! Someone must have bullied you, wife, tell me, I'll definitely teach them a lesson and give them a good spanking!!!" Qingyan angrily waved her little fist, saying with conviction. Nan Kujin was utterly speechless. As expected of a rich family's child, she was incomparable to them.

The depressed woman tried to get out of bed, but a sharp pain shot through her lower body. What a damn bad luck! She hadn't expected this until she moved! With a "thud," the woman collapsed gracefully. Ouch…chin…chin… Nan

Kujin clutched her aching chin, tears welling in her eyes… Qingyan, seeing this, blamed herself even more and quickly helped Nan Kujin up, carefully pulling her into her arms. They left the house in this extremely ambiguous embrace…

=== ...

Qingyan carefully supported her, afraid that Nan Kujin would trip and tumble down the stairs. They were walking fine until they reached the bottom, when Nan Kujin knew perfectly well… she was doomed…

Smiling awkwardly, Nan Kujin scratched her head and crawled out of Qingyan's arms. “Everyone… um… you're up so early…” She glanced timidly at everyone's faces, her body trembling. Her intuition told her something bad was about to happen.

“Indeed, quite early, you pig-like woman…” Lin Jinnian smiled mischievously, toying with his purple clay teacup, speaking with a hint of schadenfreude.

Damn it!!! You damn chauvinistic pig, if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute! Would it kill you to say one less word?! Although Nan Kujin desperately wanted to roll her eyes at him, reality is always cruel—especially given the current situation…

Swallowing hard, Nan Kujin finally realized why Bai Shang and the others had been silent. Their attention wasn't on what she had just said, but on her tightly clasped hands with Qingyan.

Good heavens…

Nan Kujin swallowed again, secretly winking at Qingyan, but Qingyan didn't see it. When she noticed Nan Kujin withdrawing her hand, her face showed displeasure and dejection. Looking at Qingyan's expression, Nan Kujin's heart ached terribly. She was only concerned with her own life; Yan Yan… she was wronged! (The woman covers her face and pretends to cry.)

The situation had now reached a stalemate. The two, a human and a fox, stood on the stairs, under countless piercing gazes. The fox was completely bewildered, while the woman was anxiously unsure what to do.

After a long, long time, as Niluo slowly rose, her imposing aura softened at first, but then came what Niluo considered to be the most kind, the most amiable, the most friendly—what Nan Kujin saw as the sight of a big bad wolf seeing a little lamb, a big bad eagle seeing a little hen, a big tiger seeing a little white rabbit… (hundreds of adjectives omitted)—a smile that sent chills down one's spine, made one feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave, the most utterly fake smile in the world!

Unfortunately, the recipient of this generous gift—Qingyan—was completely focused on tugging at his sleeve and didn't see it at all. Niluo, however, didn't seem to care too much and said loudly, "Brother Qingyan, I have something to discuss with you. Would you like to come with me to the side courtyard of the inn? (Oh my god~ If you knew Qingyan was a demon who had lived for over a hundred years, I wonder if he would faint...)" Although it was a question, it carried an air of undeniable authority. Qingyan nodded blankly, watching Niluo gracefully turn around. Her slender and beautiful back, paired with her soft golden hair, was breathtakingly beautiful.

Anyone with eyes could see that this person was going to cause trouble for Qingyan! Nan Kujin was anxiously trying to grab the dazed Qingyan who was following behind, but before her fingertips could even touch his robes, she was pulled into Bai Shang's arms.

"Little thing, you're so naughty~" A wicked smile bloomed, and Nan Kujin instantly wilted, shrinking her head timidly as she helplessly watched Qingyan leave.

Ahhhhh, Yan Yan~ you have to be careful! You have to hold on~ I believe with your strength you won't be defeated so quickly!! After this guy leaves, I'll definitely sneak over there to help you! I definitely won't let them hurt you, my poor child! Thinking this, Nan Kujin made a decision instantly.

Bai Shang held her alluring body, smiling gently as he placed a kiss on her hairline. "Stay here obediently, we'll be back soon." Reluctantly releasing Nan Kujin, he followed Qingyan away.

My god…

no wonder you wouldn't let me go, so that's why… Stomping her foot angrily, Nan Kujin was completely hopeless now, a group beating!! It was obviously going to be a group beating! This well-behaved girl has never participated in this kind of activity before~~~

The situation was already terrible, but then, the situation took a new turn. Under Nan Kujin's astonished gaze, Mu Qi slowly stood up and gave her a warm smile. Nan Kujin swallowed hard, her face contorted in a grimace. No way? Really? Mu Qi, why did you have to get involved like this?! Trembling, Nan Kujin reached out and grabbed his sleeve, pleading pitifully,

"Mu Mu~ I'm so bored, take me out shopping and have some fun~~~"

"After I finish what I'm doing, I'll definitely spend the whole day with you."

"Mu Mu~ I'm craving sweet rice balls~ Shall we go out to eat them?"

"Sure, but let's talk about it after I finish what I'm doing."

"Mu Mu~ I suddenly remembered I haven't bought some medicinal herbs yet, will you come with me~"

Before Mu Qi could even speak, Lin Jinnian chimed in, "Oh dear~ Didn't you buy any medicinal herbs? I'll go with you, I'll go with you, that would be really important!"

...#￥@#&*...

Why the hell are you interrupting?! Nan Kujin glared at him angrily, preparing to stall for time, but Mu Qi smiled gently at Lin Jinnian, "Brother Lin, please keep an eye on her."

When did you two become brothers?! I didn't know that! Qingyan... (resentment erupting...)

"Okay, okay, no problem, Brother Mu, you can go without worry!!!"

The atmosphere became somewhat strange; the more he said it, the more it sounded like a farewell to someone on their deathbed. Mu Qi nodded awkwardly, turned, and headed towards the back door.

Nan Kujin was about to rush forward to stop him when Lin Jinnian grabbed her arm.

"What are you doing, you chauvinistic pig! Can't you see I'm busy? Stop pulling and tugging at me!" Nan Kujin slapped his groping hand away and rushed towards the backyard. (...If he had two horns on his head, he'd probably look like a water buffalo...Mo Chen thought...)

But the pig fully utilized his single-minded potential, using magic to conjure a long, incredibly resilient, and transparent thread, quickly binding Nan Kujin obediently. Humming a little tune, he tossed her onto a chair. With a snap of his fingers, a dish of peanuts left by the boy flew into the air, obediently caught in his hand, and he continued to eat them with smacking sounds.

Nan Kujin struggled fiercely, but to no avail. When did you mutate, you pig? How come you can spit spider webs like Spider-Man! Nan Kujin kept cursing under her breath, watching him eat the peanuts with relish, when her stomach actually started to rumble.

Ugh… I just woke up this morning and haven’t eaten anything yet! How could I forget about that?!

Extremely afraid that someone would hear her stomach gurgling, Nan Kujin rolled her eyes at Lin Jinnian and shouted, “Eat, eat, eat! All you ever think about is eating! You’re a pig reincarnated! Let me go right now! Mu Qi told you to watch me, not to tie me up! Be careful they come after you right away!”

Lin Jinnian smiled nonchalantly, “It’s okay, this spider silk is a manifestation of my will. I’ll remove it as soon as they come out, so they won’t notice. If I remember correctly, someone hasn’t eaten anything this morning!!!”

“You!” Nan Kujin finally understood what it meant to be a tiger fallen into a pit and bullied by dogs. Hmph, just wait until they come out, and I’ll make them beat you up, then you’ll obediently become my horse! (Mou Chen was speechless. "Girl, how old are you to still be so skinny?" He glanced at Lin Jinnian and shook his head helplessly. Thump,

thump, thump...

The sound of pots and pans being smashed came clearly from the backyard. A drop of something unidentified slid down Nan Kujin's forehead. Even Lin Jinnian had a black line on his face. What were they doing? Was this the rumored... gang fight?

Just like that, the two of them forgot their bickering and just listened alertly to the commotion. 99, 100, 101, 102... Did they even know... how much silver they had thrown away
...?

After a while, probably until all the plates were smashed, the noise from the backyard gradually subsided. A long while later, the sound of rustling clothes filled the air, and a group of people appeared, looking disheveled.

Nan Kujin rested her head in her hands, speechless as she watched them. She had a premonition that this kind of situation would become more frequent…

Even though Qingyan's individual power was terrifying, it proved that the power of the masses was even greater!

Of everyone, Niluo was undoubtedly the most disheveled; her clothes were torn, her hair was a mess, and there were faint red marks on her face. Bai Shang seemed… It wasn't easy either; a large piece of his left sleeve was torn off. Mu Qi also suffered heavy losses, with a clear teeth mark on his hand… Qingyan really is…

Upon seeing Nan Kujin, Qingyan sniffed and wanted to rush forward, “Wife…”

But before she could even move, she was swept by countless arrow-like gazes, and she obediently and unwillingly retreated. Her eyes were watery as she looked at Nan Kujin, causing Nan Kujin to sigh again and again, “Ah~ poor child!!!”

Lin Jinnian seemed to be stimulated by the scene before her, her eyes wide open, staring intently. And she kept letting out "creepy" exclamations. Is this a fight...? It feels more like a bunch of old ladies fighting over a cheap item! (Someone shouts, "Xiao Jinzi, did you hear that? Someone said you're cheap!!!!")

Nan Kujin had no choice but to step in and smooth things over, "Everyone! (loud voice), look at your... clothes (voice softens), shouldn't you... change them? (completely silent)" Uh... don't look at me... I'll go first...

Nan Kujin winked at Lin Jinnian and immediately disappeared... After a

morning
of assassination
attempts, and with the woman signing an unequal contract of servitude, the group of refreshed and energetic men finally boarded the carriage bound for Ye City. The so-called unequal contract stipulated that the woman would only have one day a week to herself, with the rest to be divided equally among them. It was an old-fashioned method, but also the best one. If anyone was to blame, it was the woman for being too lustful; she brought it on herself. Who told her to flirt with every handsome man she saw, especially since they were all such formidable figures?

Somewhat depressed, Nan Kujin climbed into the carriage, and before she could even stand properly, Ni Luo pulled her into his arms. She cautiously glanced at the expressions of the people around her, despite the slight jealousy... Despite her jealousy, she didn't seem angry. Just as she was wondering why they had changed their tune so quickly, a faint smile came from behind her. Nilo buried his face in the crook of her neck, gently caressing it, a touch that was both close and distant, yet enough to stir her emotions. "It's my turn today," he said with a sly smile, his tongue secretly licking the skin of her neck, causing her body to tremble again. She hurriedly pushed him away; she didn't want to flirt with him in front of so many people. After all, just because they weren't acting up now didn't mean they wouldn't punish her on her special day. As for how they would punish her, everyone knew the answer.

Lin Jinnian was indeed a seasoned womanizer; seeing this scene, his eyebrows furrowed... He didn't move an inch. Sensing the somewhat oppressive atmosphere in the car, he chuckled, "Everyone, even if we travel non-stop today, we'll only reach the nearest town to Ye City by tonight. You might get bored along the way, so how about I tell you some stories?"
Nan Kujin, of course, didn't want the atmosphere to be too heavy. Seeing Lin Jinnian's intention to lighten the mood, she was more than happy to oblige! She clapped her hands excitedly, "Okay, okay, tell us!" As

soon as she finished speaking, eight pairs of eyes, led by Bai Shang, shot towards her, as if questioning her, "Didn't you hate him? Could it be… you…"

Nan Kujin hurriedly… She waved her hands frantically, her head practically falling off, "No, I'm just a little bored!" Only after she said that did the group's gaze slowly withdraw, but before leaving, they didn't forget to give her a few more once-overs, making Nan Kujin feel incredibly uneasy.

Lin Jinnian smiled, "Then I'll start telling the story~" "Go ahead," everyone responded casually. "One day, Xiao Qiang asked his father, 'Daddy, am I a silly child?' Daddy said, 'Silly child, how could you be a silly child?' Hahaha, isn't that funny???" As soon as Lin Jinnian finished telling this so-called joke, she burst into laughter, clutching her stomach, seemingly
laughing until it hurt.

Nan Kujin's eyes twitched. This was the joke they were talking about, and it really was hilarious... but it was such a lame joke! Seeing the speechless expressions on the faces of the others, Nan Kujin sighed and had no choice but to continue playing along. She tilted her head back and pretended to laugh out loud, "Ha! Ha! Ha! It's really funny!" Even a fool could hear the forced laughter in her voice, but Lin Jinnian grabbed her hand as if he had found a kindred spirit, saying gratefully, "Really? Just for that, I'll give you a whole collection of jokes today!"

Oh my god, are you trying to kill me, Nan Kujin? Didn't you see how the others looked at me with resentment when they heard you say that? Can't you hear the forced laughter in my voice? Dude, is your head really a pig's head? Helplessly, Nan Kujin forced a smile and nodded stiffly, "Okay... (sounds like a mosquito's buzz...)" As soon as Nan Kujin said this, the gazes of the people around her instantly cooled down even further. Nan Kujin silently lamented, wondering what was wrong with her. She didn't want to offend anyone, and she had to smooth things over with both sides. She was overwhelmed! And today, she kept saying the wrong thing! Just as she was about to say that she was a little tired and didn't want to listen anymore, Lin Jinnian was already impatiently recounting his life's "masterpiece"—why would he wait for her?

"How to quiet a sparrow? Answer: Press it down. Reason: 'Silent as a sparrow' (压雀无声, literally 'press the sparrow down')."

"Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

"Who is the ancestor of humans? Peanuts. Because peanut kernels~~~"

"Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! This is so funny!"

"Wife: I must have been blind to marry you. Husband: I must have been blind to marry you. Dog poop: I'm so unlucky! I'm lying here and you two keep stepping on me..."

"Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Good! That's funny!"

…………%￥#@…………

When Lin Jinnian finished with satisfaction, Nan Kujin had already collapsed, foaming at the mouth, her lips twitching, into Ni Luo's arms. Good

intentions don't always bring good results! Suffering for nothing! Why did you have to meddle?! Look at the consequences! Tell me, what's the most painful way for a person to die?

To listen to Lin Jinnian's lame jokes and then just laugh until you die!

Just as Lin Jinnian had predicted, at sunset, their group arrived at the town closest to Ye City. Led by Lin Jinnian, they settled into a decent inn to rest, as they were quite tired after a day's journey. Nan Kujin, still preoccupied with her medical competition with Ni Luo, secretly went to buy her necessities—gold needles, medicinal herbs, and scalpels—as soon as they arrived in the town.

Ni Luo, of course, knew her competitive nature all too well. Although Nan Kujin was his today, he couldn't use that to control her and then prepare the supplies himself. That would be too despicable. After thinking it over, he let her be. He, on the other hand, rested at the inn, confident in his medical skills.

Unexpectedly, just as he lay down, a faint, unfamiliar woman's fragrance wafted towards him, completely unlike Nan Kujin's scent. He sat up abruptly, his mind racing with alarm bells. Unfortunately, the moment he stood up, he only saw a dazzling red shadow flash by, disappearing in the blink of an eye, as if nothing had happened.

But Nilo had a premonition that this person's arrival was not friendly.

He slowly moved around the room, his hands forming a magic seal, ready to test her strength the moment she reappeared. Unexpectedly, before he had taken more than a few steps, a soft hand rested on his shoulder, and a woman's soft voice whispered in his ear. "No need to look anymore, I'm right here...hehehe..." He immediately turned around, simultaneously retreating rapidly, creating a distance of several dozen steps between himself and the woman.

"Heh~ This young master, are you afraid I'll eat you up?" The woman gently withdrew her hand, her alluring peach blossom eyes curving into a smile as she spoke. Her voice was irresistibly seductive, undeniably alluring.

Only then did Nilo see the woman's attire clearly: a white jade butterfly hairpin adorned her hair, her eyebrows were delicate, and her captivating eyes frequently sent him flirtatious glances. Her nose and below were covered by a red veil, and she wore a nearly transparent red gauze, vaguely revealing her exquisite curves and alluring long legs.

Ni Luo frowned; this woman did bear some resemblance to Nan Ku Jin in her attire. Even the white jade butterfly hairpin was remarkably similar to the one Nan Ku Jin wore every day, and even the way she styled her hair was alike. However, no matter how beautiful she was, she couldn't compare to Nan Ku Jin in her heart.

Seeing Ni Luo's calm demeanor, the woman finally believed what her master had said when she received this mission:

——————The reason I've gone to such lengths to train you is to kill these men. Men who can possess her every day!

Gritting her teeth, she knew she couldn't fail. If she failed, she would surely die. Either killed by the men here, or captured by the sect and subjected to the ravages of ten thousand snakes!

Thinking this, she gently approached Ni Luo. "Young master, it's almost dark, the night is long, shall I keep you company?" Her fingers lightly traced down Ni Luo's chest, her eyes lowered, her body inviting him to rub against hers. She was convinced this man would soon be aroused.

Ni Luo wasn't the kind of man she thought, driven by lust. But to find out her purpose for coming today, he deliberately pretended to enjoy it, holding her seemingly boneless waist, his other hand lingering on her shapely buttocks. Although these actions made him extremely uncomfortable, he had to go for it to find out her purpose! For a moment, both of them harbored their own ulterior motives.

The woman was overjoyed that she had caught the bait. If she could just trick this man into bed, her mission would be over quickly. She narrowed her eyes, swayed her hips, and looked up, intending to continue her seductive arts. But when her gaze met his, she felt all her consciousness sink into a black vortex, her awareness gradually blurring…

“Speak… what is your purpose in going there…”

“Assassination…”

“Your mastermind…”

“Golden Scorpion…”

“What is your sect?”

“Bloodthirsty Sect…”

“Who is your employer this time?”

“No employer, it was the sect leader’s order.”

Hearing this, Ni Luo thought he probably wouldn’t get any useful information out of her. Realizing this woman was an enemy, and had come to assassinate him, he flicked his hand, and before she could even utter a sound, she was gone.

After cleaning everything up, as he was still wondering when he had offended this sect, the door was suddenly flung open. It was Bai Shangmu Qi and the others. When their gaze fell on the woman’s corpse on the ground, their brows furrowed even deeper. "Sure enough, you were assassinated too."

"What? You two?"

"Yes, we were in the same situation. And these women were all dressed in red. It must be a group."

Qingyan seemed a little uncomfortable after killing someone for the first time, and said in a muffled voice, "Should we tell my wife?"

Mu Qi interjected, "Absolutely not. The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light. Besides, we haven't figured out their ultimate goal yet. Wait, we were all assassinated, what about Jin'er???" He then turned grim, clearly very worried.

"Well, Young Master Lin, you take charge of cleaning this place. We'll go find the little one quickly. Her skills should be able to buy some time. I'm just afraid she'll fall for a dirty trick!"

"Alright! Let's go." Ni Luo nodded, thinking that it was necessary to discuss the information she had just extracted with them tonight. This matter was definitely not simple.

Perhaps...
"Where did you come from, you brat?! I can tell you're no good the moment I see you! I can tell from your lecherous eyes that you're after my wallet! I can tell from your flirting that you're trying to take advantage of me! Who do you think I am? I have no interest in you, so stop trying to get close to me!"

When Qingyan, Niluo, Bai Shang, and the others finally found Nan Kujin in a secluded alley, they were genuinely shocked by the scene before them. Did they really... need to care so much about her? Shouldn't they be sympathizing with whoever was assigned the assassination mission to her? Look at her arrogant and smug demeanor, does she look like someone who's in trouble? Look at the poor guy at her feet, his face bruised and swollen from being kicked, too weak to even cry out in pain, does he look like someone in trouble?

Nan Kujin stood with one hand on her hip and the other pointing at the female assassin's neck, babbling incessantly, "You little punk, don't you even know who I am? You think you can steal my wallet with your pathetic skills?! You should go back and practice for a few years first!!! With your lousy skills, you won't get a single copper coin from me!..." The woman looked at
the woman she had trampled to the point of near death with a "I despise you" gaze, made a "V" sign, and then patted her butt with satisfaction, deliberately tossing her heavy purse aside, humming an unknown tune as she left.

The group of Bai Shangmu and the others, who hadn't yet shown themselves, all had large beads of sweat dripping down their foreheads. Sure enough, a woman like her, obsessed with money, was terrifying! And the power a woman like her unleashed was astonishing!

Someone sighed helplessly, "Let's go. Look at her, is there anything to worry about?"

"Yeah, but we need to drag that half-dead guy away first. Maybe we can get some information out of him tonight."

"Hmm..."

It was dinnertime.

Nan Kujin listlessly poked at her rice with her chopsticks, staring blankly at the table full of dishes. *Tch~* Why are they being so secretive, not letting me know anything, and even skipping dinner?! People need food to survive, don't they know that?! Actually, the main thing is, without them, there's no atmosphere at the dinner table. Eating is supposed to be warm and cozy, chatting and laughing! (I'm sweating,
wait until you spout off your half-eaten rice into someone else's bowl, then let's see how you'll manage to be so cozy...)

"Sigh..." "Sigh..." "Sigh..."

Nan Kujin sighed repeatedly, boredly picking up a chicken leg and muttering to herself, "Sigh~ chicken leg, chicken leg, why did you become a chicken leg? Being slaughtered by others, how awful!" The chicken leg protested silently, "Do you think I want this! Besides, now that you're a person, aren't you still being slaughtered by others? It seems like someone only has one day of freedom a week!" "Sigh~ that's true. Tell me, it's fine if Bai Bai, Yan Yan, and Mu Mu break up, but why is Ni Luo meddling in all this time! Sigh, I have a little bit of feeling for him, (which handsome guy do you have feelings for?) but it's not to that extent yet! Sigh~"

"Sigh~ poor woman, never mind, let's eat!" "Okay..." Nan Kujin nodded, put down the chicken leg, and started gnawing on the other one.

Inside Bai Shang's room. Bai Shang sat down in front of the woman in red, hooking her chin with one hand and sneering, "Who is it? Speak!"

The woman's eyes were filled with resentment as she turned her head away fiercely, "You don't need to waste your time. Now that I'm in your hands, you can do whatever you want with me!" Lin Jinnian stood to the side, arms crossed, "Easy for you to say. Don't you know the consequences of opposing Yinyin Manor? Don't you know the consequences of opposing Shadow Sect? Perhaps you really will have a very, very good way to die!" The woman was not afraid and instead raised her head to glare at them fiercely, "You bunch of stinking men, don't worry, soon, our Bloodthirsty Sect will have many..." "Many of your disciples have come looking for trouble! Our sect leader won't let you off so easily!"

Ni Luo looked at her with disdain. "Your sect leader, the one called Golden Scorpion, seems to underestimate us!" She then widened her eyes, looked at her, and slowly said, "Tell me... what is your sect leader's real name?" The woman, unable to withstand such a hypnotic technique infused with mental attack, swayed, but firmly said, "We don't know... our sect leader has never told anyone her name..." Ni Luo sighed inwardly, withdrew her divine sense, and shook her head at the group. The woman immediately regained her senses and screamed, "What kind of sorcery did you use on me! What did I say!"

Bai Shang glanced coldly at the woman. "Kill her, it's useless anyway. I've already bribed all the inn's staff and owner; they'll just do their jobs obediently and won't let a word slip." Lin Jinnian nodded, placing a palm on the woman's crown and shattering it.

Qing Yan, being new to the martial world, was still somewhat surprised and frightened by the ruthlessness of humans. Qingyan, her face pale, glanced at the woman's corpse with a hint of pity and said softly, "Have you noticed that all the female assassins share a common characteristic? Their hairstyles and some of their accessories are very similar to Niangzi's."

Nilu involuntarily chimed in, "I noticed it too. This is very strange." Bai Shang nodded, "The Bloodthirsty Alliance has only risen to prominence in the past six months, yet they have been secretly hindering our Shadow Sect from carrying out many missions. I always thought that the Demon Realm had simply bribed people within the Shadow Sect, but recently I received news that the leader of the Bloodthirsty Alliance seems to have people from the Demon Realm protecting him. And this leader is extremely familiar with the situation of the Shadow Sect, which reminds me of someone." His purple demonic eyes quietly swept across everyone's eyes, and he uttered a name, word by word.

“Ningxue.”

Mu Qi was the first to frown. “No way. Although I always felt that Ningxue’s feelings for Jin’er were somewhat unusual, she’s such a frail girl. How could she have such methods and power?” Ni Luo also shook her head in disbelief. “Although I’ve never met her, I’ve heard my masters mention her. How could an ordinary maid have such great abilities?” Lin Jinnian

pondered for a while and nodded in agreement. “I think it’s possible. People change. Besides, with the Demon Realm as her backer, it would be strange if she didn’t have such power.”

“Then, what should we do?” Qingyan hated these complicated conspiracies the most. Now she realized how wonderful the Demon Realm was. At least the people there were all very simple and innocent, without any ulterior motives. It was a harmonious and pleasant place.

"Cast a long line to catch a big fish. We need to be careful lately and figure out her ultimate goal first." Mu Qi said this, but an unbelievable thought popped into his mind, "Could it be... that Ningxue likes Jin'er?" But then he laughed self-deprecatingly, what was he thinking? How could such a thing be!

Bai Shang considered for a long time, "That's the only way. Let's set off early tomorrow and get to Yinyin Manor as soon as possible. After Lin's father is healed, we'll discuss it together."

As soon as Ni Luo entered Nan Ku Jin's room, she saw her sitting by the window in a golden robe, her chin resting on her hand, teasing the petals of the flower in the pot by the window.

"What are you thinking about? Are you afraid of losing our bet?" Nilo's teasing tone finally pulled Nan Kujin back from her reverie. He stepped forward, closed the window, and held her cold hand in his, gently scolding, "It's windy tonight, you'll catch a cold like this."

Nan Kujin's gaze fell on his features, and after thinking for a moment, she decided to speak her mind. "Nilo, I..."

But before she could finish speaking, Nilo covered her mouth. Looking at her with a hint of sadness, Nilo frowned his delicate brows. "Jinjin, I know what you want to say."

"Perhaps, to you, I'm like a stranger. Three months together in our sect, perhaps you only saw me as a spice in your boring life. But you know what? I'm different. I don't know why I fell in love with you. Was it because of every argument? Or because of that morning in the forest when you teased me? Or because of the song you sang before you left..."
He paused, looked deeply into her eyes, and sighed, "When I realized how much I missed you, I also realized how worthless I was in your heart. Who do you love most? Qingyan? Baishang? Or Muqi, who almost died for you at the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion? They are all important to you; they all hold a place in your heart. Although I will one day have you, I may not have your heart. Perhaps, whenever I hold you and kiss your cheek, although you allow me to be close, your heart is numb, without feeling. Our bodies may be connected, but our hearts are not. Do you know? Embracing someone who doesn't love you feels like death."

His voice carried a faint sorrow, but she could sense how much pain he endured.

She placed her left hand on his heart and her right hand on her own, feeling the beating of both hearts. After a long while, she said, "Perhaps, I can try to love you."

But Niluo immediately rejected her suggestion. “That’s not the kind of love I want. I don’t want pity. I want a deep connection of souls. I want love that comes from your soul. Love that is genuine.”

She looked at his face in surprise, and he returned her a faint smile.

She finally nodded. She understood.

Yin Yin Manor (Part 1)
Early the next morning, Nan Kujin was woken up by Ni Luo in a daze. Half-closing her sleepy eyes, Nan Kujin reluctantly pouted, “What time is it?! Go to sleep, go to sleep!!!” Ni Luo looked at her amusedly and leaned down to give her a gentle kiss on the forehead.
“Get up, you little sleepyhead, don’t forget we have a competition today~” Upon hearing the word “competition,” Nan Kujin’s eyes immediately widened, “Ahhhhhh! A competition!!!” She reflexively tried to jump up, but suddenly found herself being held in Ni Luo’s arms.

Um… if I remember correctly, last night, I think I somehow fell asleep in his arms… Looking at the small, shiny puddle on his shoulder with a guilty look, Nan Kujin's face flushed red.

No way? Drooling! When did I ever drool in my sleep?! And now it's stuck to Ni Luo's clothes!!! No way… this is so embarrassing…

Ni Luo followed her gaze and saw the drool on his shoulder, raising an eyebrow, “Drooling? I didn't expect someone this old to still drool in their sleep?” Hearing Ni Luo's words, Nan Kujin, who had been burying her head close to his chest, suddenly lifted it up and retorted, “What? Is that a problem? I just love drooling, so what? Who knows if you, Ni Luo, will wet the bed at night!!!” Nan Kujin sat in his lap, her face red, staring at him with her stubborn temper flaring up!

Nilo raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Oh? Is that so? I wouldn't mind if you came to watch that night~" His ambiguous tone caused Nan Kujin's face to flush instantly. The girl, her face red and neck thick, immediately brandished her little fists, ready to teach this blond brat a lesson. But before she could move, she heard a muffled groan, and then felt the hands that had been wrapped around her waist release her. Nan Kujin gasped, her whole body leaning backward due to inertia. She silently sighed, "Oh no, oh no, I'm going to land headfirst! What if I become an idiot from this fall!"

Just as Nan Kujin was about to give up, she saw Nilo lift his foot, slowing her fall, while he himself flipped over, landing on the ground before her. Before Nan Kujin could even ask him what he was doing, she had already landed steadily on his chest. The force of the impact made Ni Luo's face contort instantly. He muttered, "You damn woman, you need to lose some weight!"

Damn it, you dare call me fat? Nan Kujin glared at him fiercely, hurriedly scrambling to her feet. She wasn't unmoved, especially when she realized he had deliberately fallen to cushion her fall; her heart was overflowing with gratitude. She playfully pulled him up, saying angrily, "You idiot, couldn't you just help me up with your hand?!" But as soon as she said this, seeing Ni Luo's hesitant expression, Nan Kujin's heart skipped a beat. Could it be…? She

looked into his eyes in disbelief, and sure enough, there were faint bloodshot veins in them! "You...you...you didn't just hold me like that all night, staying up all night without sleeping, did you?" She blurted out her doubts in surprise. When she saw him nod nonchalantly, she couldn't hold back any longer. She playfully punched his chest, pretending to be angry. Without any curiosity, she took his right arm and gently massaged it.

"Why didn't you say so sooner, you idiot? Your blood hadn't circulated for so long, your hand must have gone numb! As a doctor, how can you not know this basic common sense?...You..." Nan Kujin frowned, scolding him, but then heard Ni Luo's calm reply: "For you, it's worth it."

Her heart skipped a beat. Nan Kujin quickly lowered her head to avoid Ni Luo's gaze, but her heart was pounding uncontrollably. “Ni Luo, I…”

Before he could finish speaking, a rapid knocking sounded at the door, and Lin Jinnian’s voice came from outside: “Brother Ni, are you ready? It’s time to go!”

Ni Luo looked at Nan Kujin, shook his head, and replied, “Yes, yes, we’re coming.” He stood up, somewhat laboriously pulling up the dazed Nan Kujin who was kneeling on the ground, and smiled warmly, “Let’s go. Don’t keep them waiting.” ===

...

The vast manor was hidden among layers of green leaves, revealing golden glazed eaves. Ancient trees reached for the sky, and two tall stone lions at the entrance
had a fierce look, yet they also had the aura of dominating all directions. Looking at the tight and orderly guarding, Nan Kujin couldn't help but sigh - the martial arts family was indeed something else.

An elderly man, who looked like a steward and was well over fifty, stepped forward with a smile, took the reins of the carriage, and smiled kindly at Lin Jinnian. "Young Master, you're finally back! We happen to have a distinguished guest today!"

Lin Jinnian looked at him in surprise and asked in confusion, "Who is it?" "It's your betrothed, the Eighth Princess! Young Master, aren't you going to go see her?" The old man teased, smiling gently at Nan Kujin and his group, and said softly, "You must be the young master's friends, right? This way, this way~"

Lin Jinnian muttered to himself, somewhat confused, "What's she doing here?" "

Of course, she's here to collect this debt of love from you~ Kid, watch out~ Be careful not to get eaten!" Nan Kujin suddenly appeared from the side, patted his shoulder heavily, and said with a grin. Her playful tone made several people around him chuckle. Lin Jinnian frowned and glared at Nan Kujin. Today, she had deliberately dressed as a man, probably to avoid being recognized, after all, she had stolen the show at the martial arts tournament last time. However, what puzzled him was that this Nan Kujin gave him a strange feeling of déjà vu, a deep familiarity, yet he couldn't quite place where he had seen her before. This bothered him, and he could only tell himself that he was overthinking it.

"Go away, go away, what are you saying! Instead of helping me, you're making fun of me, clearly wanting me to marry that princess!" Lin Jinnian looked depressed and strode away.

Ni Luo hurriedly followed, hooking his arm around Lin Jinnian's shoulder, and said with a grin, "Brother Lin~ we're brothers after all, how could we leave you alone! Relax, relax~ but... hehehe..." With a sly laugh, Ni Luo continued, "We're actually quite interested in that princess!"

This remark was met with another round of low laughter from those around them.

Lin Jinnian glanced resentfully at Bai Shang and the others, then huffed, "Stop teasing me! Let's check on my father's illness first! If he's cured, I won't have to marry that damn princess!"

Ni Luo nodded with a smile, "Then, lead the way~"

………………

Led by Lin Jinnian, after successfully navigating dozens of bends, they finally stopped in front of a luxurious and magnificent house. Nan Kujin patted her slightly exhausted heart, "Wow~ this road is so winding! I mustn't wander around aimlessly, or I'll definitely get lost! And look at this house, so grand, so magnificent! If only I, Nan Kujin, could own such a large estate someday..."

Mu Qi smiled gently at the dreamy Nan Kujin, stepped forward and gently pinched her nose, "Jin'er is daydreaming again."

Nan Kujin looked at Mu Qi in surprise, "How did you know that? Have my eyes turned into money treasures?" "No way..." (Someone said speechlessly: "You were practically drooling just now...")

"Everyone~ let's go in~" Nan Kujin whistled in a roguish manner, lifted her skirt, deliberately put on a sullen face, and stepped in little by little, looking exactly like a Japanese soldier invading a village... The

person behind her shook their head helplessly. Lin Jinnian stepped forward and opened the door.

Ahh ... Excitedly, she jumped to Lin Jinnian's side, ignoring the stares of others, and openly punched him hard on the head. "You idiot, you're so lucky! You don't even know how lucky you are?" Before Lin Jinnian could retort, the princess gracefully walked to his side and said in a soft, sweet voice, "Jinnian, I've been waiting for you for so long..." Completely ignoring Nan Kujin... Hearing that coquettish voice that made one tremble, Nan Kujin immediately lost all goodwill towards this woman. It was too fake! "She doesn't resemble Daiyu at all..." Lin Jinnian seemed not to hear this comment, and strolled to her father's bedroom door, announcing loudly, "Father, I brought two people from Medicine King Valley today. One is the now-famous 'Little Fairy Doctor,' and the other is his senior brother." She expected her father to be overjoyed and let them in, but to her surprise, her father simply said, "Oh, then let them in. My illness, alas... cough cough..." For some reason, Nan Kujin seemed to detect a barely perceptible tremor and tension in his voice. Lin Jinnian turned around and gestured for Ni Luo and Nan Kujin to enter. Ni Luo and Nan Kujin exchanged a smile and went in one after the other. The group was left there, expectant and nervous. As soon as they entered, the Eighth Princess clung to her again, stroking Lin Jinnian's cheek with a touch of heartache, saying—"Jinnian, look how thin you've become." Lin Jinnian subtly turned her face away, only to see the chilling expressions on Qingyan Muqi and the others' faces. "Jin Nian~ Here's a thousand-year-old ginseng, let me stew it for you to nourish your body." The Eighth Princess was practically glued to Lin Jin Nian, her eyes constantly sending flirtatious glances. Lin Jin Nian, hearing this, retorted irritably, "You want me to die from a nosebleed, don't you?!" The Eighth Princess smiled awkwardly, quickly waving her hands, "No, I'm just concerned about you~" Lin Jin Nian glanced at her indifferently, getting up with a hint of disgust, "I feel a bit stuffy, I'm going out for some fresh air. It's windy outside, and you're of noble birth, it's best to stay here." He took a deep breath. Why did he suddenly feel that Nan Ku Jin was practically a fairy compared to her? Uh… his brain must be fogged up. Upon hearing Lin Jin Nian's concern, the Eighth Princess blushed, bit her lower lip, and nodded happily. Qing Yan and the others immediately rolled their eyes—this woman was too presumptuous! Unable to imagine the consequences of staying with such a woman, Lin Jinnian was followed by the others as soon as he stepped out of the room. Lin Jinnian turned around and saw Bai Shang and his personal guards following him out, and smiled somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, everyone, you all must have seen this." Qingyan was the first to speak, "Brother Lin, I understand how you feel!" Mu Qi nodded, "Me too." Bai Shang pursed his lips and simply gave him two words: "Pity." Sigh ... Just then, one of his longtime personal guards stepped forward, thought for a moment, and whispered something in Lin Jinnian's ear. "Young Master, don't you think that Young Master Nan looks familiar? She seems to be... the one who kicked you at Lengxiang Courtyard that year... the one you asked us to investigate, but we haven't had a clue for so long..." Lin Jinnian's previously hazy memories suddenly became clear after this revelation. Thinking back on the guard's words, he couldn't help but shout: "What ????????? !!! ... "Please take my friends to the west wing to stay." Lin Jinnian suddenly realized he hadn't settled Qingyan and the others yet, and smiled apologetically at them. Qingyan didn't seem to mind, and replied with a bright smile, "It's alright, Brother Lin, you should hurry up, maybe your father's illness will improve!" Bai Shang nodded in agreement. "Brother Lin, we'll discuss that matter tonight, you should go and attend to your business first!" Mu Qi said gently with a faint smile. Lin Jinnian nodded gratefully, but inwardly he lamented that it was like a precious gem stuck in chicken manure; how could such good men have been snatched up by that wretched woman? The tragedy of the martial world~ How many young girls will weep for this~ (The author sighs for several minutes...) With these thoughts in mind, Lin Jinnian entered the room. When the Eighth Princess saw him arrive, she tidied her hair and tried to come forward. Lin Jinnian rushed forward to Ni Luo, asking with some concern, "How is it?" Ni Luo patted his shoulder gravely, "Brother Lin, let's talk outside..." Nan Kujin leaned in, sighing regretfully, "Young Master Lin, please accept my condolences!" Hearing this, Lin Jinnian's heart sank. His voice trembled as he asked, "Really, is there no other way?" Ni Luo shook his head, put his hands behind his back, sighed, and walked towards the door. Nan Kujin followed closely behind. ===================================================================================

Inside a charming pavilion not far from the gate, Ni Luo, holding a teacup, savored the fine tea prepared for them by the Lin family. Sitting on a stone bench, she watched with a half-smile as Lin, trembling with rage, gritted his teeth. Nan Kujin, meanwhile, chuckled maliciously beside her. "Little brat, weren't you so arrogant in front of me before? You think you're so tough? Now let's see what you do!"

"Brother Ni, are you sure? Are you absolutely certain the diagnosis is correct?" Lin Jinnian asked, somewhat unwillingly. He couldn't believe that his father would hand over his son to that Eighth Princess for such a small amount of power!

Nan Kujin glanced at him sideways, "Is there any need to say more? We both agree on that, how could we be wrong? But your old man is really ruthless, he can even come up with such a despicable trick, faking illness? And going to such lengths, if we hadn't met him, he might have really fooled you!"

"What exactly did my father use? How could he make his pulse intermittent and even so weak? Making so many famous doctors think that he was terminally ill?" Lin Jinnian angrily slammed his fist on the stone table, making a dull thud.

Nan Kujin touched the table with a hint of pity before answering, "It's a herb called 'Soul Nightmare,' originally used as an ingredient in a calming and sleep-inducing tea. It's used in small quantities, but if taken alone, it makes a person's pulse become soft, slow, and difficult to detect, and it's intermittent, yet it's harmless to the body. Your father actually knew the effects of this herb; it seems he put in some effort!" Nan Kujin winked playfully at Lin Jinnian, and...

Lin's face darkened even more...

Ni Luo took a small sip of tea and asked somewhat casually, "Then, Brother Lin, what are you going to do?"

Lin Jinnian sat down somewhat annoyed, "What else can I do? It's better to be frank about these things, lest I find out I've been tricked only after entering the bridal chamber! Alright, you guys rest here for a bit; I'm going to go and confront my father." Lin Jinnian stood up angrily and strode towards the house.

Nan Kujin watched his retreating figure, waving with a smile and saying, "Take care~"

Ni Luo smiled and looked into Nan Kujin's eyes, then added, "Don't bother seeing me out!"

================================================================================

As soon as Lin Jinnian entered the house, without thinking twice, he rushed straight to his father's room, not caring about his image. He pushed aside the clingy Eighth Princess and went into the inner room.

"Father, I think you should get up!" Lin Jinnian said coldly, casually finding a seat and sitting down, mentally organizing his thoughts on how to persuade his father to change his mind.

Seeing that he couldn't hide it any longer, Elder Lin simply sat up, leaned against the headboard, and gave an awkward laugh. "As expected of someone from Medicine King Valley, sigh~ it really can't be hidden anymore!"

"Father, I don't understand, why did you do this? Aren't people in the martial arts world always very wary of getting involved with the imperial court? But you... how could you..." Lin Jinnian shook his head helplessly. He couldn't understand why his father wanted him to marry that pretentious and disgusting Eighth Princess.

Elder Lin cleared his throat, saying with a hint of helplessness, "Jin Nian, since I rose to fame, I've witnessed the rise and fall of far too many martial arts families. Back then, I wondered if one day our Yin Yin Manor would also decline and be gradually forgotten. The answer is yes. Sometimes, when a family reaches its peak, decline is inevitable. This Yin Yin Manor is the culmination of my life's work, and it's the only thing I can leave you. To protect it, I've pondered for a long time and finally come up with a foolproof plan. Once we become royalty, we won't have to worry about these things! Besides, Jin Nian, I think that Eighth Princess is a gentle and refined, very polite girl, quite beautiful, and of noble birth..." "She's a princess, and she likes you. You two are a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman. Marrying her would be the best thing for you. You must understand your father's good intentions!"

Lin Jinnian listened, growing increasingly depressed. He quickly said, "Father! You're overthinking it! How do you know this manor will decline under my care? How do you know I can't manage it better? Father, have you considered whether you like that Eighth Princess?" He thought for a moment, then, realizing his last sentence wasn't quite right, added, "If I don't like her, wouldn't marrying her be a waste of her time?"

The old leader of the alliance, hearing this, said helplessly, "Jinnian, that's not what I meant..." "Father, you don't need to say anymore. I will not marry the Eighth Princess."

"Could it be, son, that you already have someone you like?"

"Yes, I like that Young Master Nan."

Elder Lin was shocked, his face instantly darkening. His hands trembling, he angrily rebuked, "Outrageous! I usually let you do as you please, but you've actually developed a homosexual streak! You disobedient son! You, you, you..."

Lin Jinnian glanced at his father indifferently, "How do you know he's a man? Just because I say so doesn't mean it! She's a woman! Just a woman disguised as a man!"

"Ah??????!!!!"

The prelude,
"So cold..." Nan Kujin muttered to himself, hugging his arms. Why did his heart feel so uneasy after Lin Jinnian left? How strange… I have a feeling something bad is going to happen… What a strange feeling! Nan Kujin sat sullenly on the stone bench, thinking, “You chauvinistic pig, can’t you hurry up?! I want to go to my room! I’m sleepy!!! Too bad I don’t know how to get there!” Leaning on the railing, Nan Kujin looked at the surrounding scenery. Ah, so much money! What a huge manor! What a luxurious life! Money… it’s just different…

Just as Nan Kujin was planning to raid a few mountain strongholds and steal their loot, she heard a thud, and an old man, showing signs of age but still quite spry, walked towards her. Looking closely, who else could it be but Lin Jinnian’s father? Nan Kujin chuckled inwardly. He was just lying in bed pretending to be sick, half-dead, and now he’s perfectly fine? Full of energy! Thinking it over,
she couldn't help but smile and said loudly, "Why is Elder Alliance Leader Lin up? You've just recovered from a serious illness, and it's windy outside. You should go back and rest!"

Anyone could hear the sarcasm in her words, but Elder Alliance Leader Lin figured that this person was a guest, and someone she had specifically invited to treat her. Besides, in the eyes of outsiders, it was she who had cured her illness, so she could only endure it! Elder Alliance Leader Lin, whose expression was somewhat unpleasant, didn't say anything in rebuttal and walked straight to Nan Kujin. Nan Kujin thought he was going to say something to express his gratitude, and she had already struck a pose. But unexpectedly, Elder Alliance Leader Lin raised his hand and ripped off the purple-gold crown on her head.

Soft black hair cascaded down. Nan Kujin was stunned for a moment, then reacted instantly. Her face darkened, and she flashed to stand beside Ni Luo. Looking warily at Elder Alliance Leader Lin, then at Lin Jinnian whose expression was somewhat strange, Nan Kujin raised her head high and said, "A woman disguised as a man. What, is that not allowed in Yinyin Manor?" Ni Luo also looked at Lin Jinnian with some dissatisfaction, as if asking him: Why did you tell your father that Nan Kujin is a woman? Ni Luo secretly raised her right hand to protect Nan Kujin and asked, "Elder Alliance Leader Lin, what brings you here?"

At this moment, the Eighth Princess secretly clenched her fists. Sure enough, the intelligence was correct; there really was a vixen clinging to Jinnian every day! She had him completely bewitched! How could she, a princess, lose to a commoner? What a joke! Although you do have some beauty, can your background and status compare to mine, the Eighth Princess? Besides, Jin Nian's father is on my side. Although he felt a little bad when he heard Jin Nian say that she had someone she loved, and that person was you, you little brat, he couldn't disobey his parents. You little girl, stop dreaming about becoming a phoenix from being a sparrow on a branch!

But she didn't know that while she was looking down on Nan Ku Jin, Nan Ku Jin was also cursing her in secret.

"Look, look, what are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a beautiful woman before?! What are you looking down on? You should know I could slap you away with a single glance! Look, if you keep looking, I'll have someone xxoo you! What are you so arrogant about? You're just a pretty face!"

Just as their gazes met, almost sparking an argument, Elder Lin slowly asked, "Your name is Nan Kujin? Where are you from? What's your family background? How many people are in your family? What are your skills?" Nan Kujin's lips twitched. Was this a question or a background check? "These things don't seem necessary to tell you..." Nan Kujin calmly brushed the dust off her clothes, stood up, looked Elder Lin straight in the eye, and answered without any hesitation.

"This concerns my son's lifelong happiness, how could I not be thorough? But there's no need now. Although my son likes you, I won't let you into our Lin family. Although you have superb medical skills, how can your character and family background compare to the Eighth Princess? I know you're only after our Lin family's money. Don't worry, I've prepared one hundred ingots of gold for you. You can set off tomorrow morning!" With that, he waved his hand and was about to leave.

Nan Kujin was indignant. One hundred ingots of gold were indeed tempting, but did she really look like the kind of woman who was obsessed with money and wouldn't hesitate to use her beauty to seduce men? What was the difference between that kind of woman and a prostitute? " Damn it…

" "Elder Lin, we're not here for your money. If we're talking about money, I have far more than you! (Don't misunderstand, Nan Kujin means the combined wealth of Bai Shang, Ni Luo, Qing Yan, and Mu Qi…) Do you think I, Nan Kujin, am that kind of woman? Your son might like me, but I wouldn't even look at him! No need for your entourage, we won't stay a few more days. We'll pack our bags and 'get out' as you wish!" After saying this with great fervor, Nan Kujin flicked her sleeves, angrily patted her behind, and was about to leave.

Ni Luo, because of Elder Lin's words, had a very bad impression of him and coldly mocked, "I didn't expect that Elder Lin, whom everyone in the martial arts world reveres, would look at people like this, and treat guests like this." With that, she strode away.

Lin Jinnian panicked when he saw this situation. He never imagined things would escalate to this point. He never expected his father to say such things. What was he going to do now?

Somewhat anxiously, he transmitted his voice to Nan Kujin, "Hey, you bitch, are you just going to stand by and watch me die? We've known each other for a while, you don't have to be so heartless, do you? Besides, I didn't know my father would say such things, don't be angry!"

Nan Kujin didn't even turn her head, replying telepathically, "Oh? Is that so? Unfortunately, I hate people like that the most. I think you used me as a shield for your elopement, which is why I've suffered such humiliation, right? I'm not going to play along!"

"Yes, I admit I was wrong in this matter, but when you kicked me at Lengxiang Courtyard, shouldn't you apologize?"

Lengxiang Courtyard! Wait... when did they meet at Lengxiang Courtyard? Could it be... him? The one who hugged him tightly from behind at the end... the voice sounds similar, the figure is similar too, how come he didn't notice! Damn it, this bastard finally found me! He still dares to bring it up? Heaven has eyes! Retribution has come! Let him be entangled to death by that Eighth Princess!

With a cold snort, Nan Kujin replied telepathically—Keep dreaming!

=========================================================================================

"What?! The mission failed?! A bunch of useless trash!" A cold, angry voice rang out, causing the person who came to report to tremble. Behind the golden curtain, a woman in a golden robe toyed with a fine dagger in her hand. This dagger seemed to be extremely precious to their sect leader, always kept close at hand, a habit she hadn't changed even now that she possessed unfathomable martial arts skills.

"Sect Leader, I heard from them that the mission has undergone a slight change. It's not just three, but five in total."

"Five?" The so-called Sect Leader clenched his fists, saying bitterly, "What can five do to me? Even if I give my all, all five of them must die! Standing beside her, only I can stand, only me..." As she spoke, a faint blush rose to her face, a blush she had never seen before, especially when she said the word "her," her face softening with tenderness. This stunned her subordinates.

"But Sect Leader, now that they've arrived at Yinyin Manor, trying to make a move there is as difficult as ascending to heaven."

The woman behind the curtain smiled gently, drawing her dagger from its sheath, her fingertips lightly tracing the blade. "Is that so? Then let's devise a plan to get them out of Yinyin Manor. Ideally, we should make them sworn enemies with Yinyin Manor." A faint smile played on her lips, an unfathomable glint in her eyes.

"Yes. We'll do it right away."

"Wait, when you're killing, be careful not to hurt a man named Mu Qi. He's related to the woman I asked you to capture, their lives are intertwined. Capture him alive, don't hurt a single hair on his head! Also, go and summon Nuo'er to serve you in bed." "

Yes!"

Watching her subordinates respectfully leave, she picked up a wine cup and drank the nectar inside. Sister, you can't blame me. After all, I love you so much I'm almost going crazy.

Several muffled claps of thunder rumbled…
"Bai Bai, Yan Yan, Mu Mu, let's pack our things and leave!" Nan Ku Jin started yelling angrily as soon as she entered the door. Damn… I've never seen anything so infuriating… My good intentions were met with a scolding; wasn't this just asking for trouble?

Bai Shang had already heard Ni Luo's account of the events. He frowned, walked to Nan Kujin's side, and embraced her somewhat agitated body, comforting her, "Alright, alright, we'll leave after Qingyan returns."

"Where's Qingyan? Isn't he here?" Nan Kujin asked, somewhat puzzled. "Where did he go? This place is so big, he won't get lost,

will he?" Mu Qi looked at Nan Kujin with doting eyes. "No, with his strength, he can find us quickly with just his divine sense."

Ni Luo then leaned in, "And after we leave? Where will we go?" He smiled meaningfully; needless to say, he meant back to Medicine King Valley!

Bai Shang wouldn't have it, and said domineeringly to Nan Kujin, "No way! You escaped from the Shadow Sect last time, this time I'm going to catch you and bring you back!"

Mu Qi didn't react much, just smiled gently, "My master, Yun Chengzi, talks about you every day, go see him at Tianshan~"

Ugh...

you guys... Nan Kujin squeezed out of Bai Shang's embrace, quickly flashed behind Mu Qi, and peeked out fearfully, clutching his sleeve, "I'm going to Tianshan! I've been to all your places, but I've never been to Tianshan, I'm curious!" After stating her decision in one breath, Nan Kujin quickly pulled her head back in; any later, and she'd be roasted by those stares!

Just then, a shrill scream rang out from outside, judging from the sound, it should be not far to the east. Nan Kujin and the others exchanged glances, a vague unease creeping into their hearts. Could something have happened to Qingyan?

When they arrived at the scene, a large crowd had already gathered. Qingyan stood in the crowd, staring blankly at the blood on her hands, seemingly still not understanding what had happened. On the ground lay a woman's corpse, fresh blood oozing from her face; it appeared someone had struck her on the head, killing her instantly. Judging from her attire—a fine jade bracelet on her wrist, gold and silver hairpins in her hair—she was clearly no ordinary person. Not far from the corpse, a young maidservant crouched on the ground, clutching her head, her body trembling uncontrollably, somewhat delirious, repeatedly muttering, "Murder, murder..."

Seeing this, Nan Kujin was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly pushed through the crowd to Qingyan's side and asked anxiously, "Yanyan, what happened? Are you alright? What happened?" Hearing the familiar voice, Qingyan finally came to her senses. Seeing Nan Kujin's concerned face, and then looking at the woman's corpse on the ground, she waved her hands innocently, "It really wasn't me. I was just taking a walk here when I saw her fall here. I helped her up, but I didn't expect... I touched her and she was covered in blood! She wasn't breathing..." Before

Qingyan could finish speaking, the little maid pointed at Qingyan and shouted, "You're lying! I clearly saw you flirting with my master and then killing her in a fit of anger! I just happened to come looking for my master and witnessed this!" The little maid spoke without even taking a breath, unaware that with just these few words, Nan Kujin and Bai Shang were already speechless.

"What happened?" A strong voice came, and everyone turned around to see it was none other than Alliance Leader Lin. The person standing next to him was obviously that shady Lin,

the old leader of the alliance. Looking at the corpse on the ground, the old leader's expression changed drastically. This woman was Lin Jinnian's older sister, the old leader's beloved daughter. Because of her frail health, she rarely went out. Now, seeing his precious daughter dead, and so tragically so, how could the old leader let it go? His gaze swept across the room, and when he saw the "suspect," Qingyan, his fists were already cracking…

Lin Jinnian's expression also changed upon seeing what was happening, but without a doubt, having been out with Qingyan and the others for so long, he knew perfectly well that this was not his doing; it was definitely a conspiracy!

"Tell me, what exactly happened just now?" the old leader asked, pointing at the little maid. The young maid, her eyes brimming with tears, looked up and embellished her story, recounting everything that had just happened. This enraged the old man, who roared, "Where are the Iron Guards? All of you, come here and capture these people alive!"

Oh my god! The old man finally exploded...

It was unclear where the Iron Guards usually hid, but in less than a minute, the tiny garden was completely surrounded. Perhaps the garden was indeed too small; some were standing on the artificial hill, some on the rooftops, some in the flowerbeds, some crouching in the trees, and some were even floating on the small lake? What... what is going on...?

Looking at the dark mass of heads around him, Lin Jinnian grabbed his impulsive father, "Father! I guarantee it wasn't them. I know their character better than anyone!"

The old leader's eyes were bloodshot; he didn't care about anything else. It was like a woman going through menopause, completely oblivious to everything, waving her fists with the same intensity as a Red Army soldier charging into battle… the frequency… I won’t even describe it…

Nan Kujin finally couldn’t hold back any longer, stomping on the corpse and roaring, “Her? You think you can seduce Qingyan with your looks? You might as well seduce yourself!!! (Sweating? How? Give me a demonstration first?) Look at her, sallow-faced and thin, barely any meat on her bones, (It feels like she’s picking out pork…) No figure, no looks! If I were a man, I’d be the first to run away from this kind of trash!!!” Although Nan Kujin’s words resonated in secret, on the surface, which of these servants dared to utter a sound? Lin Jinnian was speechless. You’re just talking big, don’t you even look at my father? His face is as black as charcoal!

“Stomp them…” the old leader of the alliance said bitterly, already out of breath. Was he going to die of anger?

Before he could finish speaking, Broken Wing soared into the sky, accompanied by Nan Kujin's triumphant roar: "Who dares to touch me?" Ni Luo, Bai Shang, Mu Qi, and the others were not to be outdone, leaping up one after another and drawing their swords. Nan Kujin picked up Qing Yan, who had also come to her senses, and stood on Broken Wing, suspended in the air, looking down at the crowd.

Alliance Leader Lin didn't care about any of this, constantly shouting: "Attack! Attack! Capture them alive!!!" Those Iron Guards were indeed quite skilled, all of them were Spirit Cultivators, and each one was already quite good.

If Nan Kujin and the others were to fight one by one, it would be relatively easy, but with so many people attacking at once, even if they won, they would be exhausted. Nan Kujin pushed Qing Yan towards Mu Qi and Bai Shang, then, with a light tap of her toes, headfirst, she tossed Broken Wing diagonally, dozens of purple pills already held between her fingers, which crackled and shot onto the tip of Broken Wing's sword, using the bounce to propel them towards the Iron Guards below.

With a deafening roar... a mushroom cloud... and fireworks... shot into the sky...

and below, piles of corpses collapsed.

The power was truly astounding...

Nan Kujin, somewhat surprised, withdrew her hand and flew back to Bai Shang and the others, scratching her head, "That... that thing was just developed... we haven't tried it yet... it seems a bit too powerful..." Mu Qi's lips twitched; it was indeed quite spectacular, that small mushroom cloud was comparable to a small atomic bomb...

Ni Luo stared wide-eyed, unable to process what she'd just witnessed, her eyes wide as she looked at the charred ruins below. Is this still the same garden...? "What...did you put in that stuff?"

"Uh...let me count, thunderbolts, gunpowder, fireworks, tranquilizers, smoke bombs..."

Lin Jinnian was already feeling incredibly lucky. Looking at the mess on the ground, he was glad he had come to help them. Although he was a bit biased, they were indeed innocent...but due to the speed, half of his body was still charred...and he had inhaled a lot of tranquilizers...

"Hey, you stinky woman, I...I'm not in any danger, am I...?" "No, he's just charred and unconscious. I'm still in good control of his life..." "

Uh...I'm so dizzy right now...please take me with you, I don't want to be devoured alive by that Eighth Princess..." Before he could finish speaking, he collapsed onto the back of the sword and couldn't get up.

Nan Kujin snorted coldly, "No way!"

Qingyan looked at Lin Jinnian with some sympathy, unable to bear it any longer, and pleaded for him, "Wife..."

Hearing Qingyan's words, Nan Kujin softened a little and said repeatedly, "Alright, alright!"

"However! Not take her away, not carry her away, drag her away!!!!"

Everyone fell silent... You're so cruel...
