Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 652 The Darkened Sword Maniac of the Martial World vs. the Cunning Enchantress (38)

Yin Qianrou watched as Shi Zhengchun fled, and she screamed, "Brother Shi!!"

"Brother Shi, don't leave me!!!"

Shi Zhengchun ran away in a flash, without looking back.

He planned to keep his life alive and wait until he obtained the secret treasure before seeking revenge on Qianrou from the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers.

Moreover, Qian Rou is a lucky person and should not die.
The women of Wanhua Valley wouldn't lay a hand on a weak woman.
Even if he died, she loved him so much that she should understand and forgive him.

The junior sisters surrounded Yin Qianrou and asked Senior Sister Caiwei, "Senior Sister, what should we do?"

Caiwei frowned deeply. Even killing this woman would only relieve her hatred temporarily. What if Shi Zhengchun really came back alive to seek revenge in Wanhua Valley?
The only option is to kidnap this woman and take her hostage.
"Sever her tendons first, then take her away!"

"Yes!"

Yin Qianrou hurriedly backed away, pleading, "No, please let me go."

"It was Shi Zhengchun who ate your Blood Bodhi, I didn't. If you want revenge, go find Shi Zhengchun, don't hurt me."

She deeply regretted it; she shouldn't have gone with Shi Zhengchun and severed ties with her master.

If it were his master, he would never abandon him.

"Ah—" Yin Qianrou screamed as her tendons were severed by the sharp sword, and she collapsed to the ground, barely alive.

Just as Caiwei and the others were about to take her away, a gust of black wind swept in and knocked them all to the ground.

Caiwei coughed up a mouthful of blood, clutched her chest, and got up. When she did, the woman whose tendons had been severed was nowhere to be seen.

……

When Shen Shuyi learned that Yin Qianrou had been rescued by Mo Lianzhou, she and Xie Xinghe were camping in the mountains.

As night deepened, Xie Xinghe kept watch by the fire, the charcoal crackling and popping. Thick fog surrounded them, and the girl beside him was already asleep.

He took off his outer robe and covered her with it. He leaned against the tree trunk and meditated to practice his martial arts. After an unknown amount of time, the girl stirred and opened her eyes.

"What time is it?" Shen Shuyi rubbed her sleepy eyes.

Xie Xinghe handed over the water pouch, saying, "It's not dawn yet, you can sleep a little longer."

It's not too late to set off when it's fully light.

Shen Shuyi sat up, drank some water, and looked up at him. "Are you planning to join up with the people from the Canglan Sword Sect?"

"Hmm." Xie Xinghe poked at the charcoal fire. Once he handed the Alliance Leader's Token to the sect, he could go to Tianshan to find the Snowfield Ice Silkworm Flower.

Shen Shuyi rested her chin on her hands and looked at him. "Xie Xinghe, I feel like you've been acting strange lately. You've started putting clothes on me and being so accommodating."

"You really care about me."

She stared expectantly at the man in front of her.

Xie Xinghe's eyes flickered slightly, "Now that we're bound together, naturally..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Shuyi pressed her finger to his lips.
"Xie Xinghe, can you please stop being so hypocritical?"

Her finger moved down and poked Xie Xinghe's heart. "I quite like you, but even if I like you a lot, once we leave Penglai Island, we should go our separate ways."

"I don't want to be besieged by the entire righteous sects of the martial arts world because of you."

"We'll go our separate ways. Don't worry, I'll find a secluded place to spend the next six months peacefully. I absolutely won't let the poison harm your life."

Xie Xinghe looked down at her, his hand slowly tightening until his knuckles turned white.

Shen Shuyi looked up at him, "What's with that expression?"

"It can't be...it can't be that you don't want me to leave, right?"

Xie Xinghe saw her smile, her eyebrows and eyes like the moon.

Seeing him struggle to utter a single word, his awkward and affected manner making her want to tease him, Shen Shu deliberately leaned closer, pressing her face against Xie Xinghe's, "Young Master Xie, you wouldn't happen to have fallen for me too, would you?"

"The upright and dignified young sect leader has fallen for a vixen."

Her words completely disrupted Xie Xinghe's mind. If he was still immersed in the fact that Shen Shuyi liked him just now, and was about to leave, now she was mocking his despair.

Xie Xinghe said, embarrassed and annoyed, "Don't talk nonsense."

He grabbed the girl's wrist and pulled her away.

Shen Shuyi snorted, "Fine, I won't say it then. I won't bother saying it even if you ask me to in the future."

"Anyway, I'm tired of playing around here. Once you leave Penglai Island, don't say you know me."

Xie Xinghe's chest heaved, his emotions unreadable—whether it was shame or anger, his heart felt like it was being pricked by needles.

She said she was tired of playing it.

Her affection was based solely on superficial manipulation.
Xie Xinghe turned his back and clutched his chest, trying to calm down.

But the phrase "I'm tired of this" kept replaying in my mind.

Shen Shuyi patted his arm, "Let's go quickly. You're carrying a secret treasure, lest things get complicated."

Xie Xinghe remained silent the entire way and did not take her hand again.

Shen Shuyi knew what he was sulking about, but seeing his favorability rating soar to 80%, she wasn't worried at all.

[Host, Shi Zhengchun has obtained a fake Tai Xuan Scripture!]
"Have you started training?"

[He practiced, but he didn't castrate himself.]
Shen Shuyi raised an eyebrow. "No rush. If he wants to live, he'll make his move sooner or later."

Practicing this technique will cause one to become consumed by lust before even reaching mastery, leading to qi deviation and demonic possession. If one does not castrate oneself in time, one will become paralyzed and die within a month.

[Host, you'd better leave quickly! The life-giving gate set up by Longyuan is about to close. All the martial artists who entered Penglai Island are frantically running away.]
Shen Shuyi nodded, "I know. The earthquakes are becoming more and more frequent. Even those who don't know about the formation have sensed something is wrong. Nobody wants to lose their lives because of some elusive treasure."

When Shen Shuyi and Xie Xinghe arrived at the exit of Penglai Mountain, they heard the sounds of fighting coming from two sides ahead.

She frowned slightly and looked at Xie Xinghe. "Let's go see what's going on."

Xie Xinghe and she exchanged a glance, and the two flew away.

What came into view was a scene of confrontation between the righteous and the demonic forces. Shen Shuyi immediately spotted Mo Lianzhou and Yin Qianrou beside him.

On the righteous side, Shi Zhengchun, full of confidence after obtaining the "Tai Xuan Jing," stood with the elders of various sects.

The moment Yin Qianrou saw Shen Shuyi, she gritted her teeth and said, "Master, the Holy Maiden Shen Shuyi is actually getting involved with the young master of the Canglan Sword Sect. Is she going to betray the Blood Lotus Sect?"

Her voice was quite loud, and everyone present was a martial artist with keen senses. Upon hearing this, they all turned to look at the girl in the red dress next to Xie Xinghe.

The girl wore a red dress with a butterfly ribbon at her waist that seemed ready to take flight. When the mountain breeze blew, the layers of her dress fluttered, making her look both dangerous and beautiful.

Zhuang Hanfei, the master of the Sword Forging Manor, roared in fury, "You young master of the Canglan Sword Sect, how dare you collude with that witch of the Blood Lotus Sect to kill my son Yuantu!"

Xie Xinghe frowned and said in a deep voice, "Your son's abduction of innocent women to practice evil arts is a crime he deserves."

Zhuang Hanfei sneered, "Today, we ask the elders of all the major sects to judge right and wrong. Let's see if your Canglan Sword Sect will defy the world and protect this demoness!"

Xie Xinghe stepped forward and walked up to Shen Shuyi, shielding her behind him.

Shen Shuyi walked out with her hands behind her back, and snorted coldly:

"Xie Xinghe's actions have nothing to do with you."

She glared coldly at Zhuang Hanfei across from her, "If you want revenge, come on then. Let me send you and your son to be reunited in the underworld."
