Qin's Moon: I'm really not the Holy Lord of the Demonic Sect

Chapter 28 Actually, I prefer mature to younger.

In Yang Che's eyes, Zi Nu was different from Nong Yu and Hong Lian's naivety. As an adult, she was more charming. She might not be very old, but because she had to raise many younger sisters, Zi Nu had developed a mature and alluring temperament over time.

Compared to Hu Meiren's deliberate flattery and affectation, Zi Nu's beauty is more natural. She just stands there, without a single movement or smile, yet her eyes exude gentleness. Coupled with her intellectual temperament, the first thing that comes to mind upon seeing her is not a sense of covetousness, but a feeling of reliability.

She was very beautiful, and her figure was even better, which could not be completely concealed even by thick winter clothes.

In fact, her appearance was quite alluring, even more so than Hu Meiren. Her face was small, but her eyes were large. She had long purple hair, purple eyes, purple eyebrows, small, rosy lips, and a small but straight nose, which made her beauty extremely striking.

But when people see her, they often overlook her appearance and are instead attracted by her mature and intellectual temperament. Compared to a fairy, when people see her, they think more of the perfect older sister they once fantasized about in their childhood.

If she were an immortal, she would be the most noble and unparalleled goddess in the world; if she were a demon, she would be a peerless enchantress who wreaks havoc on the world.

During her eye contact with Yang Che, Zi Nu unusually looked away first. In the welcoming and seeing off of people at Zi Lan Xuan, she had encountered all kinds of gazes, from subtle peeping to greedy stares and unbridled covetousness, and she could take them all in stride. But Yang Che's gaze was different. She did not see unbridled or subtle gazes, but rather an appreciation that had grown up in the light.

Such people are either in the highest position in the world and act without restraint, or they are open-minded and willful.

Although Yang Che came from a distinguished background, he was clearly not at the point of being able to act with impunity. Therefore, his uprightness could only be explained by the second interpretation.

Thinking of what Cai Die had said before and the information she had obtained, Zi Nu could hardly believe her own judgment: Could he really be the legendary "good guy"?

Is he a magnanimous and open-minded gentleman, while I am the petty and anxious one?

In this day and age, are there truly good people? Zi Nu harbored deep doubts about this, and at this moment, she had already judged Yang Che to be extremely dangerous.

Zi Nu was not worried that Yang Che had any designs on Nong Yu. She believed that with Nong Yu's intelligence, even if she was deceived for a while, she would eventually see through Yang Che's true colors. Besides, Nong Yu had a group of older sisters protecting her.

What she feared was that Yang Che was truly a good person. People are wary of bad people, and bad people may not necessarily succeed, but good people are hard to guard against.

"Senior brother, I thought you weren't coming." While Zi Nu was scrutinizing Yang Che, Nong Yu had already greeted him.

"How could I not come when we had already agreed? It was just that a few minor hiccups caused the delay," Yang Che explained.

"Senior brother, I came out with my sister today. You haven't met her yet, have you? Let me introduce you..." Nongyu stood between Zi Nu and Yang Che, looking around at the two of them.

"This must be the mysterious and beautiful owner of Zilan Pavilion, Miss Zi Nu?" Before Nongyu could introduce her, Yang Che directly revealed Zi Nu's identity.

He was certainly eloquent. Yang Che's words did not elicit any sympathy from Zi Nu; instead, they made her even more wary.

"I can't call myself mysterious, and as for beauty, it's just a pretty face to please people. I don't deserve Imperial Censor Yang's praise." Zi Nu said modestly, showing the full extent of her composure as the owner of Zi Lan Xuan.

Yang Che simply smiled and remained silent in response to Zi Nu's modesty. No one knew better than him how many beauties there were in Xinzheng, and he was well aware of Zi Nu's position among them.

"As Nongyu's older sister, I have not yet written about Imperial Censor Yang's care for Nongyu. Today's meeting was rushed. Let's arrange a time in the future, and I will host a banquet for Imperial Censor Yang at Zilan Pavilion," Zi Nu said, directly pointing out the relationship between Yang Che and Nongyu.

"If it were any other banquet, I might have to think about it, but no matter how I think about it, I can't find a reason to refuse the banquet at Zilan Pavilion." Yang Che readily agreed. He was very confident in the banquet at Zilan Pavilion. Even if the food and wine were just average, it was Zilan Pavilion after all, and the beautiful scenery was enough to accompany the meal.

"Then it's settled." Zi Nu considered herself to be well-informed, having met everyone from high-ranking officials to heroes of the martial arts world, and able to judge their character in the shortest amount of time. But she couldn't see through Yang Che.

"Sister, there are aromatherapy products for sale here, they're so exquisite!" Nongyu's voice rang out from the side, as she had found what she wanted at a nearby stall.

"Let Butterfly help you take a look. Aromatherapy may be small, but choosing the right one is the most troublesome," Zi Nu replied.

When Cai Die heard Zi Nu mention herself, she followed Nong Yu. She had originally wanted to hear what Zi Nu and Yang Che would say to each other.

After Cai Die and Nong Yu left one after another, Zi Nu's gaze toward Yang Che became more sharp.

"I will keep a close eye on Nongyu and will never give bad people the chance to harm her." As Cai Die and Nongyu's attention were drawn to the incense, the intellectual Nongyu vanished instantly, replaced by a chilling aura that pressed down on Yang Che.

The world only knows that Zi Nu is the skillful and shrewd owner of Zi Lan Xuan, but no one knows what Zi Nu did before opening Zi Lan Xuan. She is not just a flower for people to admire, but also a sharp and ruthless sword hidden under the brocade.

"Who is this villain that Miss Zi Nu is talking about?" Under the shadow of Zi Nu's murderous aura, Yang Che's eyes narrowed slightly.

First came the banquet, then the warning—was this a show of kindness or coercion?

What a wonderful older sister she is!

"You should know," Zi Nu said coldly. Of course, she was just bluffing, but as the older sister and Nong Yu's only guardian, she had to make her stance clear.

She would rather be the one who is wrong, judging others by her own petty standards. She would rather apologize to Yang Che later because of her misunderstanding than see Nongyu suffer the consequences when she is right.

Yang Che looked at Zi Nu, who had become unusually cold and stern, and smiled. Under Zi Nu's sharp gaze, he suddenly took a step forward and stood directly in front of her.

Two pairs of eyes met at close range. One pair of dark eyes held a smile, while the other pair of purple eyes were cold and sharp. Neither was willing to give in as they stared at each other.

Zi Nu could even feel Yang Che's hot breath hitting her face. However, she could not admit defeat at this moment. But in this confrontation, she was destined to suffer a loss.

Yang Che suddenly lowered his head and leaned towards Zi Nu. Just as their faces were about to collide, Zi Nu almost instinctively turned her head away, letting Yang Che's face barely brush past her temple.

"Actually, I prefer the big one to the small one." Yang Che's voice rang in Zi Nu's ears. Zi Nu took a step back, widening the distance between herself and Yang Che. She could still faintly smell Yang Che's breath in her ear, and her pair of purple eyes stared intently at Yang Che.

In the exchange just now, the woman was ultimately at a disadvantage.

He is indeed very dangerous.

"Is this the true face of Imperial Censor Yang?" Zi Nu said coldly.

"Who can say for sure what's true and what's false? Let time prove everything." Yang Che's unrestrained smile vanished, replaced by the indifference he had shown when he first met Zi Nu.

Indeed, Zilan Pavilion is a very good choice for the Yin Gui Sect.

Yang Che's abruptness just now was not due to lust. His two faces were to test Tianmo Ce's reaction.

At this time, the second task on the Heavenly Demon Strategy had changed.

Main Quest 2: Rebuild the Yin Gui Sect, progress 2%, quest reward: Heavenly Demon Great Art 1-6 levels.

The breakthrough from zero to two was caused by my frivolous behavior towards Zi Nu. As expected, Zi Nu is the key to rebuilding the Yin Gui Sect.

Unlike the Flower Wanderer, the Heavenly Demon Great Art rewarded by the rebuilt Yin Gui Sect is much more powerful. Among the many martial arts of the Heavenly Demon Strategy, apart from the mysterious Demon Seed Technique and the domineering Purple Blood Great Art, the Heavenly Demon Great Art is the strongest. It is a unique skill that can be cultivated to become a Grandmaster, or even to shatter the void.

However, the requirements for establishing the Yin Gui School are correspondingly more stringent.

The Flower Sect has always operated independently, without any sectarian power. Therefore, it only requires Yang Che and Nongyu to establish the Flower Sect.

However, the Yin Gui Sect is different. The Yin Gui Sect is a major sect with a strong foundation. If Yang Che wants to establish the Yin Gui Sect, he will need a sect headquarters, disciples, inherited techniques, and even power.

The Flower Sect was an exception; the establishment of the Yin Gui Sect was the normal path for establishing a sect.

With its people, channels, and a large pavilion that could serve as a base, Zilan Pavilion was practically the perfect tool for Yang Che to establish the Yin Gui Sect.

Yang Che was determined to get Zi Nu and Zi Lan Xuan, and he also really wanted Zi Nu to perform the Heavenly Demon Dance for him.

Zi Nu was unaware of all this. At this moment, she was completely confused. In Cai Die's description, which one was Yang Che's true identity: the senior brother who stood in front of Nong Yu, the good-for-nothing playboy from Jixia Academy, and the shameless madman who had just harassed her?
