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

Seeing Shen Wenwen going crazy, An Li went over and picked her up on the swing: "Okay, don't be angry. Your brother didn't mean to ignore you. He's going undercover now, so he naturally has to be careful."

Moreover, he wasn't completely out of the loop. Look, in less than a month, he cleared his name in three murder cases, and because of him, the empire has regained the upper hand in negotiations with various countries!

The Sixth Princess sent word that the Empire would reward him.

Shen Wenwen nestled against An Li's chest, sobbing slightly. "I know, I'm just worried about him. He's so easily impulsive, I'm really afraid something might happen to him out there! Besides, the murder case is already closed, so why hasn't he come back yet?"

An Li stroked Shen Wenwen's pigtails and sighed, "Because there's still a rape/murder case where the culprit hasn't been found!"

Shen Wenwen was furious: "Is Shen Bai that kind of person? Does he need to rape/murder women to get them? If he wants dual cultivation, then Sister-in-law An Li, that little brat Bai Qingqing..."

Shen Wenwen immediately realized she had let something slip and quickly tried to cover it up, saying, "A little vixen like Bai Qingqing would love to be won over by Shen Bai!"

An Li keenly realized that Shen Wenwen had let something slip earlier.

In fact, she had been pretending not to know anything about Shen Bai and Bai Qingqing's affair.

As long as you, Bai Qingqing, don't threaten my position, what's wrong with keeping you as a mistress?

Seeing that An Li wasn't angry, Shen Wenwen continued to rant, "Shen Bai isn't the kind of person who would mess around outside."

An Li sighed and said, "We all know what kind of person he is. The problem now is that public opinion is a fearsome thing. If we can't catch the murderer, this matter will not be resolved."

The Night Fiend Hall is currently doing everything in its power to apprehend the culprit, and we expect to have results soon.

Shen Wenwen scoffed, "Night Fiend Hall? I have no idea the Night Fiend Hall has ever accomplished anything!"

Tang Xinyue, who was standing nearby, comforted her at the right moment: "Huang Ying, Bai Lu, Qian Yu and Qian Yu are also doing their best to investigate. According to Huang Ying's feedback, the Night Fiend Hall has already found clues about the murderer, and we expect to receive good news soon."

Shen Wenwen then became a little happier.

Just as he was about to continue chatting with An Li, Bai Qingqing suddenly arrived.

The atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly became awkward.

Shen Wenwen cried out in alarm and rushed forward: "Sister Qingqing, are you here to ask my brother about alchemy? He hasn't returned yet."

When Bai Qingqing saw An Li, her face also looked a little awkward, but she still asked in a low voice, "Have you heard from your brother recently? It's been so long since I heard from him, I'm a little... worried."

Shen Wenwen felt a warmth in her heart. Although this little vixen always lusted after Shen Bai's body, she was absolutely sincere towards him.

"I haven't been able to contact him for a month either, but he was recently cleared of suspicion in three murder cases, so he should be fine."

Shen Wenwen pouted, her heart, which had just been comforted by An Li, began to ache again.

"It's okay, trust your brother, he's always so amazing!"

Bai Qingqing patted Shen Wenwen's head, then greeted An Li, Yang Xiao, and Tang Xinyue before turning back to Tiandan Dao Academy.

Shen Wenwen turned to An Li with a smile: "Sister-in-law An Li, will you take me to the secret realm to do a mission?"

An Li knew that Shen Wenwen was trying to ease the awkwardness, but she still stood up happily.

As long as Shen Wenwen acknowledges me as her sister-in-law, you, Bai Qingqing, will always have to stand aside.

At this moment, there was another group of people who were also worried about Shen Bai.

"Sister Qing, how long has it been since you last contacted Shen Bai?"

When Hu Feier arrived at the cave dwelling that Shen Bai had been granted, Si Qing, dressed in a pure white robe, was feeding Shen Wenwen's little spirit turtle in the garden.

Thanks to the abundant spiritual energy of the mid-grade third-tier cave, the little spirit turtle's cultivation has now entered the Qi Refining stage, and its cultivation is progressing extremely rapidly.

At this moment, it was happily eating the elixir that Si Qing fed it.

Following Si Qing, it felt that its turtle life was truly happy.

They are given elixirs every day.

Who would dare to imagine that?

"It's been 28 days!"

A hint of longing flashed across Si Qing's elegant face.

Although the two rarely see each other, it is extremely rare for them to go 28 days without contacting each other.

Hu Feier was wearing a white business suit today, looking both capable and charming, but she also looked unhappy.

I went to Dongdao before, and it was several months before I left.

Although returning from Dongdao eased my longing, this time we've been out of contact for another month, which is very worrying.

Moreover, this time it was even more dangerous than the one on Dongdao Island.

Si Qing's cloud-like hair was combed into a tassel bun, simple and unadorned, yet exuding an ethereal aura.

Even the usually gentle and detached woman found it difficult to maintain her composure at this moment: "Now that the company is on the right track and we no longer have Renli Pharmaceutical as a rival, everything is thriving, but we've encountered this problem."

Hu Feier sat next to Si Qing. The two, one ancient and one modern, were both dressed in white, looking as beautiful as twin flowers.

She waved her hand angrily into the air: "How could Shen Bai possibly rape/murder a young girl? He has us; how could he possibly covet other women?"

Si Qing suddenly turned to look at Hu Feier: "Did your teacher's wife mention the engagement to you?"

Hu Feier's fist froze in mid-air. The usually strong and capable woman was now a little shy: "She did ask me if I would be willing to marry Shen Bai with you."

……

This matter has basically been made clear.

Hu Feier knew it was her father's idea.

Initially, the father only wanted to marry Si Qing to Shen Bai, and he also consulted Si Qing's opinion. In the end, it was the mother who made her feelings for Shen Bai clear to the father, which led to the subsequent developments.

Although True Lord Hu Fangkun was somewhat reluctant that his daughter and disciple were both marrying the same person, when the choice was Shen Bai, all his reluctance turned into satisfaction.

And, I can't wait!

Now, Shen Bai's cultivation level, progress, character, and conduct are highly recognized by Hu Fangkun, who often praises him in front of Hu Weiwei, Hu Feier, and Si Qing.

Especially after Shen Bai returned from Dongdao and was promoted to county magistrate, such a good son-in-law is hard to find even with a lantern.

Therefore, Hu Fangkun immediately asked his wife to find out what Si Qing and Hu Feier thought. He decided that if neither of them had any objections, then his wife should formally convey this matter to Shen Bai.

If you're too slow, someone else will snatch it away.

In ancient times, there was a story of catching a son-in-law after passing the imperial examination; now, Shen Bai, the martial arts champion, is coveted by countless people.

……

Si Qing then turned to look at the spirit turtle: "Shen Bai's cultivation is progressing extremely fast. I feel that he is very likely to enter the Golden Core stage within five years. I will also be trying to enter the Golden Core stage soon, so you need to work harder, otherwise you will only be able to play a minor role in the future."

"What? You want me to be your concubine?"

Hu Feier immediately retorted, "Why should I?"

This strong woman has never been convinced by anyone, not even her own sister Hu Weiwei, who is not much stronger than her.

"Because my cultivation level is higher than yours!"

The usually gentle and indifferent Si Qing now exuded a powerful aura: "I heard that Shen Bai has a childhood sweetheart who is also a genius. If you dare to slack off, she might catch up with you."

And then there's Bai Qingqing, who often stays here; that girl is no pushover either.

Now that everything at Kunbai Pharmaceutical is on track, let's focus less on business and more on self-cultivation.

I've recently been reducing the time I spend on alchemy. I want to officially enter the Golden Core stage when Shen Bai returns safely!

Si Qing's words made Hu Feier fall into deep thought.

In the vast world of cultivation, no matter how you look at it, cultivation level is fundamental.

Otherwise, what good would it do to marry Shen Bai?

The two finally managed to be together, but then their own lifespans came to an end?

Who would dare to imagine that?

Therefore, those who cultivate immortality are both cautious and careless when choosing a cultivation partner.

The concern is that when one's partner's lifespan ends, one's state of mind will be affected.

Some powerful cultivators, however, are not so careful. They have long since taken life and death lightly and only seek to live a life without regrets. Such cultivators are often very strong.

After thinking for a while, Hu Feier simply stopped thinking about it. She looked at Si Qing with a strange expression: "What if that childhood sweetheart also wants to challenge your position?"

Si Qing's action of feeding the spirit turtle stopped mid-air. After a moment's thought, she suddenly revealed a rare, domineering smile: "Her? Welcome to the battle!"

Seeing the woman, who was as elegant as a white rose, suddenly turn into a thorny rose, Hu Feier couldn't help but sigh inwardly, no wonder Shen Bai was so infatuated with her.

Back in Jiangbei, he used every means to win her heart.

However, Shen Bai had been too discreet back then, and it was only when he was in the capital that he stumbled upon their affair.

It can be both salty and sweet, both dominant and submissive.

A woman like Si Qing, let alone Shen Bai, even he himself found it hard to resist her charm.

However, she was gentle and unassuming, which is why many people overlooked her existence.

"Sister Qing, why don't we go inside and discuss this?"

The usually reserved Hu Feier now cast a fiery gaze at Si Qing: "You have to help me get promoted quickly!"

Si Qing put away her domineering smile, nodded slightly, and got up to walk towards the bedroom.

Hu Feier happily followed her inside.

Only a poor little turtle remained in the garden, wandering helplessly around.

What's going on today?

I'm still not full!

Sister Siqing, you can't have a new love and forget about me, your old flame!

……

What's been going on with Li Bai lately?

The Sixth Princess had already started a new round of tours, something she did every year, and it was also determined by the nature of her cultivation technique.

However, all efforts will be rewarded in the best way.

After entering the Foundation Establishment stage, her cultivation level has been advancing by leaps and bounds. In recent days, she has also entered the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, and she is no less than Shen Bai, this heaven-defying genius.

Qi Rui's expression was strange, but she still reported the truth: "According to our spies, he is currently pursuing the number one socialite in Rota—Vanka."

"Pursuing Vanka? What a jerk!"

The sixth princess snorted coldly. How could she not know this first socialite of the Kingdom of Rota, who was of equal renown to herself?

She never expected that Shen Bai, that bastard, would still dare to pursue Wanka even though he had promised her he would stop flirting with other women.
