After infiltrating the main characters' group, I became the most beautiful woman in the world.

Before heading to the inn, Su Ning had one more thing to do.

That is—buying clothes.

If we're talking about the most inconvenient thing in ancient times, it would probably be transportation. Anyway, these past few days, while traveling, I've basically been resting in the wilderness.

Su Ning had long been fed up with her dirty appearance, and besides, she would definitely need to change into new clothes after taking a bath.

According to Yin Ye, it will take at least another ten days to get there.

It was getting cold then, so I definitely needed to buy some thick clothes.

Thinking of this, Su Ning called out to the person in front of her, "I'm going to buy clothes, do you want to come with me?"

Yin Ye walked ahead, his clothes stained with mud, his back thin and bony, even his shadow was paler and colder than others, as if he had walked out of the underworld.

The man hadn't spoken to him since leaving the restaurant, so he must still be angry.

However, Su Ning had no obligation to take care of his feelings.

Hearing the girl's words, he turned around, his voice low and hoarse: "I need to go to the pharmacy."

He had been traveling on and off for the past few days, and the medicine he bought in town on the first day was all used up. However, his strength had only recovered to about 50%, and his external injuries had not fully healed.

Su Ning crossed her arms and nodded: "Okay."

But the man didn't turn and leave; instead, he repeated, "I need to go to the pharmacy."

Su Ning raised an eyebrow, her fingertips casually twirling the silver bell on her wrist, its crisp sound shattering into fragments in the wind: "I heard you. It's a pharmacy, you go your way, I'll buy my clothes. Let's go our separate ways."

Yin Ye frowned deeply, a heavy thud echoing in his throat. His fingers clenched, and he turned his head away, refusing to look at her. Finally, he gritted his teeth and uttered a few words in a low voice: "I...have...no...money."

If this brat in front of him hadn't been so strange, and if his injuries hadn't healed, how could he have been treated so humiliatingly?

Since he became the master of Youtai, apart from the sect leader, everyone treated him with a mixture of respect and fear. Unfortunately, he was unlucky enough to encounter Su Ning.

Not only has his carefully laid plans been completely ruined, but now he even has to humbly beg her for his own money.

"Oh dear, you should have said so earlier! I'd completely forgotten."

Su Ning slowly walked up to him and took out some silver from her small purse.

Just as Yin Ye was about to get the silver coins, Su Ning suddenly closed her fingers, causing the man in front of her to miss his target.

"Buying you medicine is too wasteful."

Here, take these.

She tilted her head to look at him, her eyes slightly upturned, her eyes, like autumn water, shimmering with a hint of nonchalance. Even with only half her face showing, she was still breathtakingly beautiful in the sunlight.

But then, several copper coins lay in the girl's other fair palm, a stark contrast to the silver coins from before.

"Are you kidding me?"

Yin Ye's tone instantly turned cold.

He had been holding back his anger with nowhere to vent it. Although he was in a weak position, when people are pushed to the limit, they can do anything.

He immediately took action to teach her a lesson.

But Su Ning seemed to see through his thoughts. She immediately grabbed his sleeve, and the hem of her skirt gently brushed against his boots, carrying a sweet fragrance unique to young girls, which suppressed the fierce aura around him.

Yin Ye quickly closed her eyes. "Are you trying to use your seductive arts on me again?"

But then a clear, bell-like laugh rang out, "So you're afraid of me, huh? But you look rather amusing, like a lone wolf whose teeth have been pulled, all droopy."

She raised her hand, her fingertips gently poking his Adam's apple, which he was slightly heaving with suppressed emotion. Her smile deepened, her eyes curving into two shallow crescent moons: "Here, take the money."

"But remember, you're the one begging me today. If you dare to ignore me again, I'll bully you and make you my slave."

Yin Ye took the silver, her ears turning bright red, whether from anger or rage was unclear.

Without even glancing at Su Ning, he took a few steps to escape from her side.

It had a somewhat panicked, fleeing feel to it.

Su Ning stood there, chin raised, her eyes wide with a smile. Despite her obvious teasing demeanor, she waved at him and said, "Go quickly and come back soon. I'll be waiting for you at the clothing shop over there."

Only when the man's figure gradually became invisible did Su Ning's eyes return to calm.

Xiao Qi in her mind was a little confused: "Su Su, why are you so concerned about this person? He's not the mission target."

Su Ning strolled leisurely to a nearby clothing shop, her fingertips tracing the various colored dresses, and replied, "Of course, it's about finding an ally for myself."

"Leaving aside the sect leader, what can I do if the other party disregards our past relationship and ignores me for a few days?"

"Moreover, he has been away from the sect for many years, and the Wuxiang Sect is basically managed by the four Grand Masters."

"The situation inside is incredibly complex, so naturally I need to find someone of high status and power to clear the way for me."

"He's a very suitable candidate, isn't he?"

Looking into Su Ning's calm eyes, Xiao Qi felt a chill creep up her spine for some reason.

He quickly flattered her, saying, "Su Su, you're amazing! You even thought of that."

"Wrap this, this, and that up for me."

Su Ning turned around and spoke to the shopkeeper who had been observing her for a long time.

She chose clothes that were easy to wear on the street, lightweight, stylish, and warm.

Although the shopkeeper thought the woman was dressed plainly, he was also pleased to see her being so generous.

While wrapping the men's clothing, he asked one more question: "Young lady, do you remember the men's clothing size so clearly?"

"We only make ready-made garments here. If the size doesn't fit, you can come to our store to have them altered."

"No need, his clothes will certainly fit."

Since Su Ning was so certain, the shopkeeper couldn't say anything more.

"By the way, shopkeeper, do you know which shop in Moon Crossing City has the most beautiful jewelry?"

Su Ning stood under the eaves, watching the people coming and going in Moon Crossing City, and casually asked a question.

The shopkeeper stroked his beard, a shrewd smile spreading across his face: "When it comes to jewelry in Moon Ferry City, 'Moon Jade Pavilion' is undoubtedly the best! Their silver ornaments are the most exquisite, especially their cloisonné begonia hairpin. With your looks, young lady, wearing it would surely make you the most beautiful woman in the land."

nonsense.

Since Su Ning made her appearance at the martial arts tournament, she has been carefully covering her face these past few days.

Don't let others find out.

Even inside the clothing shop, they carefully covered half their faces with a face mask, leaving only their eyes visible.

However, the way of a merchant is to speak to people in a way that suits them, just like the shopkeeper does.

After waiting a while, Yin Ye walked into the clothing shop with a sour face.

The shopkeeper, being quite perceptive, went to greet her and handed over the clothes that Su Ning had just packed: "This must be the young master. You are truly blessed to have such a beautiful wife who even remembers your size perfectly."

"puff."

Su Ning, who was waiting on the side, couldn't help but laugh.

But Yin Ye's face immediately darkened, and he angrily retorted, "What nonsense are you spouting? I am not her husband."

"Uh……"

The shopkeeper never imagined that the two people in front of him were not a couple.

If you're not a couple, how can you know the size?

But he was quick-witted and immediately agreed, lightly patting his mouth: "Oh! It's all my fault for misunderstanding your relationship."

"He deserves to be hit! He deserves to be hit!"

Yin Ye clearly didn't want to watch the shopkeeper put on a one-man show, so he immediately snatched the bundle from the shopkeeper's hand, turned around, and left.

Su Ning then said to him, "Shopkeeper, he's not my husband, he's my...brother."

The word "brother" was spoken with tenderness and affection, evoking a sense of longing and contemplation.

Naturally, the sound also drifted into the ears of the Lord of Youtai, who had not gone far.

The shopkeeper immediately understood and chuckled, clasping his hands in a fist salute, "Understood, understood."
