After disappearing for ten years, the junior sister made the entire sect kneel down to welcome her.

There weren't many spectators at the scene.

But the large number of viewers outside the water screen was overwhelming.

Outside the water curtain, the disciples of the Xuantian Sect were discussing and whispering amongst themselves.

They didn't think there was anything wrong with their behavior, after all, Su Mingyue had been in the sect since she was very young.

Moreover, Su Mingyue has a showy personality, and when she was a child, she often needed her senior brothers to hug and kiss her cheeks.

Over time, the disciples of the Xuantian Sect became accustomed to and accepted it.

Now that Luo Zhenhuan pointed it out, she suddenly realized that Su Mingyue was already sixteen and had reached the age where she and her senior brothers needed to avoid talking about relationships between men and women.

Moreover,

"I remember Senior Brother Zhao was engaged to someone from Medicine King Valley, right? If he falls for Junior Sister Su, what will happen to Medicine King Valley?"

"Shh, keep your voice down."

Some people disagree:

"It's just a habit."

"It's a bit inappropriate, but not a big problem. We can subtly remind you; there's no need to make such a big fuss, as if we've done something."

But Luo Zhen didn't care whether people agreed or disagreed.

She just needs to make sure that those who are meant to hear it do.

That's right.

Second Senior Brother Zhao Qing has a fiancée, Liu Rumei, who is the elder sister of Liu Ruoci, the young master of Medicine King Valley.

She came to watch his competition today without telling Zhao Qing.

In the mirror, Liu Rumei was the only person besides Master Yun Yao who, after Luo Zhenhuan finished the competition, walked up to her and praised her for being great.

Speaking of Liu Rumei...

Although his fate wasn't as tragic as that of the minor villain Luo Huanzhen, he was still an extremely unlucky guy.

She is a character who appeared after Luo Huanzhen accidentally fell into the Ten Thousand Demon Cave, and the Xuan Tian Sect and the Medicine King Valley formed a marriage alliance.

Although Liu Rumei was Zhao Qing's fiancée, her status was far inferior to that of Su Mingyue.

After marrying Zhao Qing, her married life was not happy.

The reason is that when Su Mingyue was with Zhao Qing, she always sought to make him feel important, making him revolve around her, this frail and sickly junior sister, and ignore her lawfully wedded Daoist partner.

They were even forced to take care of Su Mingyue along with Zhao Qing.

Liu Rumei often felt that she was not Zhao Qing's Daoist partner, but rather like a "loving" maid to Zhao Qing and Su Mingyue.

However, when she pointed this out, both of them accused her of having dirty thoughts and being petty, saying that they were just close senior and junior classmates.

Everyone praised Zhao Qing for being loyal and righteous.

Only she felt like she was holding a bowl of undercooked rice and stuffing it into her stomach, unable to swallow or spit it out, as if a fishbone was stuck in her throat.

With Liu Ruoci in charge of her maternal family, and Liu Ruoci in love with Su Mingyue, she wished more people would fawn over Su Mingyue and surround her. She would never stand up for her elder sister, which led to the tragic death of this beautiful woman.

The villains and the cannon fodder, of course, need to form a savior alliance.

She wants to sever this ill-fated relationship between her scumbag third senior brother and Liu Rumei from the very beginning!

So, what Zhenzhen needs to do today is tell Sister Liu Rumei, who is hiding in the crowd watching Zhao Qing's competition:

She was right. Someone understood the grievances she had suffered. Zhao Qing and Su Mingyue were using the guise of being senior and junior brothers to act like lovers.

In the water screen image, Luo Zhenhuan is still banging drums and shouting loudly.

In the secret realm.

Zhao Qing's face flushed crimson, and she gritted her teeth angrily, saying, "Luo Huanzhen, what nonsense are you spouting?! My relationship with Mingyue is completely innocent!"

Luo Huanzhen, carrying the gong, walked off the stage, tilting his head and asking innocently, "How could I be talking nonsense? I'm telling the truth! Were you two hugging just now?"

"And every time Junior Sister Su cries, you all tenderly hug her and comfort her, kissing her cheeks. I wasn't wrong!"

among the crowd.

In an inconspicuous corner, a woman dressed in a light purple gauze dress and wearing a veiled hat stood quietly.

The veil hanging from her hat obscured her face, revealing only a pair of clear, cold eyes that were fixed intently on the two close-knit senior and junior disciples reflected in the water curtain.

Beside her, her personal maid gritted her teeth and said resentfully, "Is this the 'upright, gentle, and trustworthy' Young Master Zhao that the Valley Master described? He's not even married yet, and he's already embracing another tearful junior sister, even kissing her cheek to comfort her?"

Absolutely shameless!

Liu Rumei did not respond.

But Hengyangzi, who was standing on the spirit boat, couldn't sit still.

Because Zhao Qing's fiancée from his youth, Liu Rumei, the legitimate daughter of Medicine King Valley, secretly came to the sect.

The purpose was to see Zhao Qing's performance in the sect competition and to discuss their marriage ceremony three months later, as a surprise for him.

She offered to let Hengyangzi take the initiative to say that she didn't need anyone to look after her; she just wanted to look around and get acquainted with the place where she would live in the future, and treat it as her own home.

But I never expected that something like this would happen at this critical juncture!

After mentally cursing Luo Huanzhen, that bastard who was spouting nonsense, Hengyangzi quickly led two disciples down the mountain.

When they finally found Liu Rumei standing quietly in the corner, Hengyangzi forced a calm voice to explain on Zhao Qing's behalf: "Rumei, those two, the brother and sister, aren't what you think..."

Liu Rumei lifted her veil, revealing her fair and delicate face.

She pointed her finger at the water curtain above, her voice low and angry: "Not what I think? Then what is it?"

"They've had this deep sibling bond since they were little. There's nothing between Mingyue and Aqing at all. You're really overthinking it!"

Hengyangzi cursed Luo Huanzhen, that reckless scoundrel, to death in his heart again. While keeping Liu Rumei calm, he anxiously sent a telepathic message to Zhao Qing in the secret realm.

Tell him to quickly loosen his grip on Mingyue and watch his behavior; Liu Rumei is here. She's watching from outside, and she's very angry right now.

In the secret realm.

Zhao Qing, who originally felt that her relationship with Mingyue was completely innocent and had a clear conscience, panicked for a moment after receiving her master's telepathic message.

Su Mingyue noticed his stiffness immediately and looked up with concern, asking, "Third Senior Brother, what's wrong?"

Zhao Qing said, "Ru Mei is here. She... she misunderstood us and is angry."

Su Mingyue's expression showed a slight surprise.

Ru Mei. Liu Ru Mei?

Why is she here?

Su Mingyue disliked Liu Rumei. This woman was more dignified and aloof than her, had a better background, and had even stolen her third senior brother.

Su Mingyue bit her lip, struggling to stand up from Zhao Qing's embrace, and said in a trembling voice, "Third Senior Brother, you... go out and explain to Sister Mei first. Mingyue doesn't want to be the bad guy who breaks up a marriage... Go tell her that there's nothing between Mingyue and Third Senior Brother, that we're completely innocent..."

However, she accidentally twisted her ankle and fell heavily back into Zhao Qing's arms.

Su Mingyue's face was deathly pale, and her eyes were red from the pain.

Seeing that she was clearly on her own, yet still thinking about how he and Liu Rumei shouldn't argue because of her, Zhao Qing's heart melted completely.

"Our relationship is completely innocent, so there's no need for explanation. I'll heal your wounds first. As for her, if she's not tolerant and magnanimous, she's not worthy to be my Daoist partner, Zhao Qing's partner."

His voice was gentle, yet firm and resolute.

Outside the water curtain, the surrounding disciples praised Zhao Qing's medical skills and benevolence, envied Su Mingyue's favored status, and said that Zhao Qing was a gentleman of integrity.

Hengyangzi, adopting the demeanor of an elder, gently advised, "Rumei, Aqing is a good child. Think about it, isn't it true that only those who value loyalty and righteousness can befriend someone?"

As the sounds entered her ears, Liu Rumei felt a tightness in her chest, and her beautiful, cool brows furrowed slightly, looking somewhat bewildered.

Am I being too petty?

But just then, a childish voice rang out—

"You all say that senior and junior brothers and sisters have a deep bond, but in the world, which senior brother would hug and kiss his adult junior sister and expect his fiancée to be 'tolerant and forgiving'?"
