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

"Susu, did that thieving brat molest you?"

When Tangxi and Yuezi arrived, they saw Su Ning, wearing a veiled hat, sitting by the railing, her light-colored embroidered shoes tapping the ground idly.

Tang Xi's face turned ashen. She looked Su Ning up and down, and only relaxed after confirming that she hadn't noticed anything wrong.

"I'm fine. He only helped me because he saw I was in danger."

Su Ning shook her head, indicating that nothing had happened to her.

Yue Zijin, however, noticed the hibiscus flower in the girl's hand and said indignantly, "Did that scoundrel give this to you?"

"Su Su, you mustn't be fooled by him. He must have seen your face sometime during the day and got lustful. He's actually a womanizer who's been to countless brothels in secret."

That scoundrel is despicable. He pretended to be a scholar with the intention of taking advantage of Su Su's kindness, drugging them, and then kidnapping her.

If it weren't for the large number of people surrounding and capturing him in Qingyun at the time, Su Su might have really been taken away by him. Now, he has followed her to Fuxian Town like a ghost.

His intentions are despicable.

Su Ning smiled, not taking Yue Zijin's slander of Yu Xinglai to heart, and simply said, "Didn't you used to really want to befriend him? Why do you dislike him so much now?"

Yue Zijin scoffed and muttered, "Who knew he was a lecherous scoundrel? Just pretend I was kicked in the head by a donkey back then."

"Alright, no matter what, he did save Su Su today. So what if he has ulterior motives? If he dares to come again, I'll beat him to a pulp." Tang Xi said, touching her whip.

"Let's go back. I wonder if they caught that butterfly."

Su Ning gently changed the subject, but on the way back, Yue Zijin was always absent-minded, his eyes frequently falling on the hibiscus flower in the girl's hand.

As luck would have it, the three of them returned to find two distinct groups of people.

One group, dressed in yellow robes, belonged to the Xuan Nu sect, while the other group wore veils and white robes, giving them an ethereal and otherworldly appearance.

At that moment, they were all busy treating the women who had been captured by the butterfly.

These women were kept in a secluded room by the flower butterfly, never seeing the light of day, and their blood was drawn daily. Now, they were all emaciated, with pale lips and dazed eyes.

Fortunately, he had always wanted to capture disciples of the Xuan Nu or Su Nu sects, so he did not kill them directly, but kept them alive so that he could use their blood.

Tangxi originally wanted to apologize to Xu Heyu. Although Hua Hudie had been brought to justice, she was originally going to help him. However, Yu Xing suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Just as she reached Xu Heyu, she saw a somewhat familiar face.

The girl, who was being helped out, was dressed in a pink dress made of luxurious material. However, after being wasted in the secret room for many days, her clothes had turned gray and her hair was dry and yellow.

Xu Ling'er had just been rescued and was crying tears of joy. When she saw Tang Xi, her eyes immediately fell on Yue Zijin not far away.

"benefactor?"

Tang Xi felt that the woman in front of her looked familiar, and when she saw her staring in the direction of Yue Zijin and calling for her benefactor, the scene in Sujia Village flashed through her mind.

Is it her?

Tangxi remembered that it was Yue Zijin and Pei Yunlian who rescued her from the bully in Sujia Village. Now, she actually saw her again in the secret room of the Flower Butterfly.

Thinking of this, a faint sympathy flashed in her eyes. She had only thought that the other party was a young lady from a wealthy family, and that traveling together would inevitably cause trouble. But she never expected that she would be so unlucky as to be caught by the flower butterfly again.

Yue Zijin felt someone calling her and subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound, where she saw Xu Ling'er, who was covered in dust and had messy hair.

"Miss Xu, what are you doing here?" he asked in surprise.

I thought she would go home after what happened in Sujia Village, but I never expected to run into her here.

Su Ning had no idea that Xu Ling'er was in such a miserable state. In the original story, Xu Ling'er followed the main characters from Su Family Village all the way to the Sword Casting Manor. Unexpectedly, she ended up meeting Xu Ling'er again after all the twists and turns.

Although it is in this form.

Is this considered an uncontrollable force of the plot?

Xu Ling'er burst into tears the moment she saw Yue Zijin. For a delicate young lady like her, being able to see the person who had saved her life again after surviving a disaster brought out all the bitterness and grievances in her heart.

Yue Zijin could only scratch his head, unsure how to comfort the other person. He wanted to look to Su Ning for help, but saw that she and Tang Xi were talking to Xu Heyu.

Tangxi clasped her hands in a respectful bow to the other party, "Miss Xu, I am truly sorry. I should have helped you capture the thief, but unexpectedly Susu was kidnapped. This time, it was Tangxi who broke her promise. If Miss Xu ever needs anything from Tangxi in the future, please feel free to ask, and I will do my best to help."

Tangxi doesn't like owing favors, but this time it was indeed her fault.

Xu Heyu's lips, hidden beneath her veil, curved into a smile, then she shook her head. "What's the big deal? I don't think the person who kidnapped Miss Su is a bad person. Besides, if he hadn't been so fast, how could Butterfly have been caught off guard?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Xi was at a loss for words to describe Yu Xinglai, but then heard Su Ning explain from the side, "That person is my friend. He just saw that I was in danger and didn't know anything about the Flower Butterfly. He's just causing trouble for Miss Xu and Miss Zhu."

Upon hearing Su Ning's voice, Xu Heyu couldn't help but glance at her. Although she couldn't see Su Ning's face, she could picture those clear eyes in her mind. Coupled with that captivating voice, she figured the woman in front of her must be quite beautiful.

It's not surprising that he has a few highly skilled followers.

Meanwhile, Xu Ling'er, who had been wailing loudly nearby, gradually stopped crying when she heard Tang Xi and Su Ning address the woman in white as Miss Xu. She came to Xu Heyu's side and asked:

"May I ask if you are Xu Heyu, Miss Xu, from the Su Nu Sect?"

"It's me. May I ask what brings you here, young lady? Are you feeling unwell?" Xu Heyu turned her gaze to Xu Ling'er, her tone gentle.

But Xu Ling'er, who had just stopped crying, immediately grabbed Xu Heyu's arm and cried out, "Cousin! I've finally found you!"

……

Even after the three of them returned to the inn, Yue Zijin couldn't help but marvel, "Can you believe such a coincidence exists in this world?"

Xu Ling'er turned out to be Xu Heyu's cousin; she had secretly run away to seek refuge with him.

Yue Zijin looked at Tang Xi and Su Ning, while he himself walked backwards in a nonchalant manner.

Just as Yue Zijin was about to apologize after bumping into someone, she met a pair of cold eyes. The person's tone was calm, but it was like a storm lurking beneath the surface: "You guys... you're back from fooling around?"

Looking at Pei Yunlian, who had woken up at some unknown time, the three of them felt a faint sense of guilt.
