Fairy, please step aside, I've taken a liking to your man.

Shen Bai, however, paid no attention to the other's tone and firmly placed his hand on Vanka's shoulder: "Massage relaxes not the body, but the mind. So what if you're a Golden Core cultivator? You still need to relax your mind!"

Vanka froze, incredulously wanting to turn around and look at this audacious swordsman.

How dare he?

However, Shen Bai naturally brought up the topic: "I heard that Shen Bai, the new king of Qingbei Dao Academy, has been exonerated? Many people call him the most powerful new generation in the Xuan Yuan Empire. I really want to compete with him."

Vanka sat up straight, slightly uncomfortable, and lost interest in looking at the file. She casually replied, "He probably can't be cleared of suspicion because there's still a rape/murder case where he hasn't been exonerated."

"Oh? So that rape/murder case wasn't committed by Wu Qian?"

Shen Bai's tone was filled with surprise, and he gradually increased the pressure with his hands, making the Golden Core cultivator feel that he was truly massaging her with his heart.

"It shouldn't be, at least it wasn't done by people from our side."

Vanka swept the files on the table aside and slowly leaned back in his chair. Recently, due to some unforeseen events, the Kingdom of Rota has been in a very passive position. The ambassador in charge of negotiations has been repeatedly turned away by the Xuan Yuan Empire, and the progress of the negotiations has almost come to a standstill.

"Could it really have been Shen Bai who did it? Or is there another 'nothing' in the capital?"

Shen Bai chatted casually with Vanka about the case, as if they were old friends. Vanka also felt that the negotiations with Qiyuan Star were too troublesome, so she decided to have a proper talk with Shen Bai about the case.

"It definitely wasn't Shen Bai who did it. He was still at Qingbei Dao Academy at the time. But we must smear him with this. The Xuan Yuan Empire has another genius, which is a threat to all countries, unless he, like you, throws himself into the arms of our Luota Kingdom."

Vanka narrowed his eyes slightly. To be honest, Shen Bai's massage was quite comfortable. Using lightning magic to assist in the massage, it was amazing that he could come up with such a thing.

"Actually, if I hadn't investigated your background, I would have suspected that you and Shen Bai were the same person!"

Vanka's words were startling, but Shen Bai's grip on his hand remained unchanged.

This dispelled the last shred of doubt in Vanka's mind.

According to the spies' investigation, Li Bai was indeed born in Huacheng of the Xuanyuan Empire. He failed to get into the Dao Academy because he did not perform well in the college entrance examination.

In a fit of anger, Li Bai retreated to his family's cave dwelling and devoted himself to practicing swordsmanship every day.

Recently, after mastering his swordsmanship, he came out of the mountains to participate in the World Sword Cultivation Conference, wanting to prove that he was no worse than those classmates who were admitted to the Dao Academy.

This Li Bai had a kind of arrogance, which was actually his way of proving himself to others.

The fundamental reason why the conditions offered by the Eastern Island and the Western Sai Kingdom failed to sway him was that the status they offered was not high enough.

The Eastern Island is a place that values ​​bloodlines, and the Western Kingdom also values ​​lineage. Only the Kingdom of Rota is all-encompassing. As long as you have usable capital, no matter which country you are from, someone will immediately be willing to give you power and money.

Although they were used as cannon fodder, at least they were given some dignity.

For someone so eager to prove themselves, as long as you keep offering them benefits, you can keep them firmly under your control.

Of course, the Kingdom of Rota is also a very pragmatic country. Once they realize you have no more use to them, they will immediately discard you like trash.

Unless you can prove your worth again, there is no chance of making a comeback.

The people here are so snobbish!

"Shen Bai? He's just a figurehead set up by the Xuan Yuan Empire's royal family. If I had his resources, I would have already reached the Golden Core stage."

Shen Bai's words were laced with disdain, displaying his arrogance to the fullest.

"As long as you work hard, I will definitely treat you well!"

Vanka made a small promise, then added, "Don't underestimate Shen Bai. According to our investigation, his rise has little to do with the Xuan Yuan Empire's royal family. His talent might even surpass that of the Sixth Princess, Liu Shiqian!"

"Taller than the Sixth Princess?"

Shen Bai looked utterly astonished: "How is that possible?"

Vanka's face showed a hint of solemnity: "We are using Shen Bai as a pawn this time precisely to destroy him."

According to the investigation, his rise to prominence has only taken two years. In the first semester of his senior year of high school, he was just a martial artist at the sixth level of the Acquired Realm. In just two and a half years, he has already reached the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

He just turned 20 a month ago. Given time, he will definitely be able to reach the Golden Core stage within five years.

How many Golden Core cultivators have reached the age of 25 in the last thousand years? Extremely rare, and each one eventually became a Patriarch-level being.

As Vanka recounted his story, Shen Bai gradually came to understand how he was perceived by various countries. It seemed that he had been too high-profile, otherwise he wouldn't have been splashed with dirty water.

"Given the current situation, there's no point in us throwing dirty water anymore, is there?"

Following the other person's words, Shen Bai continued, "Those cases have all been cleared of suspicion, so our plan has essentially failed."

Vanka shook his head and laughed, "It's alright. As long as this rape and murder case remains unsolved, this matter is not over. I have already arranged for someone to contact the girl's parents. They are incredibly wealthy, and money can't buy them off. The only thing we can do is keep fueling his desire for revenge and make him put pressure on the Night Fiend Hall and the royal family of the Xuan Yuan Empire."

We'll keep spreading rumors on the Spirit Network, and slowly ruin Shen Bai's reputation. At that point, we can either try to recruit him or destroy a genius...

Vanka meticulously explained her plan to Shen Bai, showing no concern whatsoever that Shen Bai would spread the information.

After all, the other side is now employing an open strategy.

Even if the world finds out, there's nothing we can do.

Because Shen Bai could not prove that he had not raped or murdered the girl.

There is one single flaw in this strategy.

"What if Shen Bai finds the killer beforehand?"

Shen Bai's tone was concerned: "Wouldn't that cause problems with your plan?"

Vanka nodded and said, "So, we're also looking for them. Once we find them, this matter will be confirmed."

At this point, Vanka suddenly laughed.

"Even if we can't find him, so what? As long as we keep smearing him, it's easier to spread rumors than to refute them. Besides, even within the Xuan Yuan Empire, there are many people who want Shen Bai dead, and they will have their own people to stop them."

Shen Bai quickly gave the other person a thumbs up: "Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!"

Spreading rumors takes only a mouth, but debunking them takes a lot of legwork.

He also noted the domestic rivals that Vanka mentioned.

There has been no conclusion to this matter, and even Shen Bai himself doesn't believe that his enemies didn't contribute.

Vanka stretched her body proudly, displaying her beautiful waistline and curves to Shen Bai.

"You know what, your massage was actually quite comfortable."

Shen Bai chuckled: "I'll come over tomorrow and show you some other massage techniques."

Vanka, still wanting more, asked, "Why not today?"

Shen Bai pointed to the daylight outside, and Vanka realized that an hour had passed without her noticing.

How time flies!

Is Li Bai's massage really that magical?

She reached for the file on the table somewhat casually: "Okay, you can go back now."

Shen Bai immediately understood when he heard that the other party had not refused the massage service for tomorrow.

Some things happen naturally.

……

Just like the words she taught Rogge: "Beautiful nuns don't lack suitors, they lack bold suitors."

Do you know why simps end up with nothing?

It's because a simp only gives, never asks for anything in return.

Do you know why it's always female cultivators who get scammed out of money and sex? And they're all highly educated and highly skilled female cultivators.

Because Aquaman is the best at taking.

Only when she is taken advantage of will the female cultivator feel that she has been taken advantage of.

When you suffer a loss, you want to make up for it, and that's how you gradually fall into the trap that the Sea King has carefully woven, becoming deeply trapped and unable to extricate yourself.

A shrewd player never spends money on dating.

The female cultivators all voluntarily spent the money.

……

Besides that, it also comes down to taking decisive action.

If you can't hold hands after three dates, then you've completely failed.

The fact that Wanka could skip holding hands and go on to give Li Bai a massage after only three dates, even if it was a serious massage, shows that Wanka has a very good impression of Li Bai.

The tug-of-war and the back-and-forth between them cannot be described in a single sentence.

The moment Shen Bai confirmed that Vanka was the top socialite in Rota and didn't have a boyfriend, he knew he had to act decisively and forcefully, bypassing the hand-holding.

This aloof and obedient girl needs some rebellion and excitement.

Just thinking about the countless outstanding men from Rota behind Vanka, Shen Bai felt a chill run down his spine!

Come on, all you prodigies of the Kingdom of Rota, come quickly!

……

Just as Shen Bai was immersed in the strategy game of winning over the number one socialite in Rota Kingdom.

Inside Shen Bai's cave at Qingbei Daoyuan, Shen Wenwen was venting her anger on a dummy.

"Damn Shen Bai, he's been gone for so long and hasn't come back!"

"Not only are they not coming back, but they haven't even sent me a message!"

"If you're not coming back, then you're not coming back. Do you think I care about you that much?"

……

Looking at Shen Wenwen, who was going crazy in the yard, Teacher Yang Xiao felt a little sorry for her. She knew very well how deep the feelings were between Shen Wenwen and Shen Bai.

Shen Wenwen must be anxious because she hasn't seen Shen Bai for almost a month.

Tang Xinyue also wanted to comfort her, but she knew that the girl needed to vent. She understood Shen Wenwen better than Yang Xiao did.

This little girl is simple-minded and only cares about her brother. She even values ​​Shen Bai's safety more than her own.

The last time they were separated for so long was when Shen Bai went to Dongdao to carry out a mission. Although they were separated for a long time that time, Shen Bai would send messages to Shen Wenwen every now and then.

This time, after a month of no news, Shen Wenwen was almost frantic with worry.

It's impossible not to vent.

Just then, An Li returned from outside.
