Why do you trust him so much?

You're totally obsessed with love, Second Sister!

Is he really worthy of your trust?

What makes Chu Yang so special?!

Immediately, Shi Xiaoman felt that Chu Yang had placed a soul curse on her second senior sister, enslaving her.

Even Chung Shu-yun found it increasingly absurd.

"Second Junior Sister, are you really that confident in him?" Zhong Shuyun asked with a serious expression.

Lin Xi nodded without hesitation.

"......"

"Alright, if he really wins the championship in the martial arts competition, then we have nothing to say. We will even help persuade our master."

"But if he can't do it, or if his strength is just average, then don't blame your senior sister for not helping you."

"If Master makes a move then, it won't be good for us to mediate."

Upon hearing this, Shi Xiaoman looked somewhat worried.

"Senior Sister, Master used to strictly forbid Second Sister from engaging in matters between men and women. Now that Second Sister's talent surpasses even that of the past, Master will definitely be even less likely to agree. It's difficult to deal with Master..."

"That's why Chu Yang needs to win the championship to prove himself; at least this is the first step."

"......"

"Shouldn't we go and test Chu Yang's character? Senior Sister, are you really going to help Second Senior Sister?"

"What if Chu Yang has some ulterior motive for taking a liking to Second Senior Sister? What if he's simply attracted to her beauty?"

"If you ask me, Senior Sister, you should wait a while and try to seduce that Chu Yang, and see if he will stick to the way of husbandhood."

"After all, Senior Sister, you are one of the Five Beauties and the chief of our Shuiyue Peak lineage. I don't believe that no man would not be tempted by you."

"Hehe, we'll definitely be able to expose Chu Yang's true colors then!" Shi Xiaoman blurted out her wicked plan.

After Shi Xiaoman said that, Lin Xi also turned her gaze over.

"Don't come up with any bad ideas." Zhong Shuyun shook her head.

"Since my second junior sister doesn't refuse, I can't very well break them up."

"Moreover, if Chu Yang has come all this way for Second Junior Sister, and if he really wins the championship for her and proves himself to her after winning, then it will show that he is truly dedicated."

"After all, with such a huge challenge, one cannot make such bold statements without courage and boldness."

At the same time, she sensed a large amount of extremely powerful and yang magic energy within her second junior sister's body, which was helping her second junior sister stabilize her aura.

Even her transformation of magical power and breakthrough to the King Realm may be related to it.

Given how much she cares for her second junior sister, she naturally has no right to interfere.

"Okay," Shi Xiaoman could only reply hesitantly.

"Alright, Second Junior Sister, we've asked what we needed to ask. You should get some rest; the preliminary rounds of the martial arts competition are tomorrow."

"Senior sister believes that with your strength, you will definitely be able to break into the top thirty of the martial arts competition."

After exchanging a few more words, the two left.

Actually, the news they received today is still a bit shocking; they need to go back and process it.

Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Zhong Shuyun and the other person's departing figures.

Not long after, Chu Yang emerged from the darkness in the corner and walked to the bedside.

Lin Xi immediately covered herself with the blankets and glared at him warily.

"You can't do anything reckless now!"

"Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Don't worry, I won't do anything reckless again. If you hadn't hugged me inappropriately earlier, I wouldn't have had this problem."

Chu Yang walked to the bedside and sat down, then gently embraced Lin Xi.

His long, slender hands gently combed through her messy, tousled hair.

Lin Xi, who was about to get angry when Chu Yang hugged her, suddenly became gentle when she saw him.

Her pair of bright, clear eyes, like crystal beads, shifted and then calmed down.

"I didn't expect your two relatives to care about you so much."

"Nonsense, there are only three disciples in my master's lineage."

"I'm quite satisfied with what you did just now. I didn't expect you to side with me in front of your junior sisters." Chu Yang's words softened.

Lin Xi rolled her eyes at him.

Nonsense! You're just hiding in the shadows. If I don't side with you and wait for them to leave, you'll come out and punish me to death!

"The cultivation method I practice has been completely transformed. You should go back now."

"Okay, you should rest well first. Your condition should be better in about an hour."

After combing Lin Xi's messy white hair into what he considered to be smooth, Chu Yang got up and left.

Just as Chu Yang's figure was getting further and further away, Lin Xi, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, suddenly called out to him.

"Wait! Answer me one question first."

Chu Yang stopped and looked at her quietly.

"If, as my junior sister suggested, my senior sister were to seduce you without your knowledge, would you be tempted?"

Lin Xi immediately regretted asking the question.

I wanted to slap myself.

She didn't know why she suddenly had such a brain fart and asked that question.

She clearly didn't show any emotional fluctuations.

But the moment Shi Xiaoman made the suggestion, she unconsciously memorized it.

She herself didn't even realize it.

Chu Yang's dark eyes were fixed on Lin Xi on the bed.

Seemingly noticing that the other person was putting on a brave face, he inexplicably smiled.

"If it were your senior sister trying to seduce me, I might suspect her motives."

"If you were the one trying to seduce me, I might make sure you can't get out of bed for a month."

As he spoke, his figure transformed into a golden ray and disappeared into Lin Xi's bedroom.

"......"

"That despicable Chu Yang!"

"Disgusting! Despicable! Shameless! Rogue!!"

With a whoosh, Lin Xi's face instantly turned bright red.

She raised the pillow in her hand, intending to throw it in the direction he had disappeared.

When he said those words and met her gaze, how could she not understand the meaning behind them?

That's absolutely insane!

No, it seems I can't act recklessly in front of Chu Yang anymore, or something bad will happen.

Wait, wait until she becomes strong enough to break free of the Soul-Purifying Lock and then leave Chu Yang directly.

During this time, she'll have to take advantage of even more opportunities...

The next day.

The sound of gongs and drums filled the air, and the dragons and phoenixes sang in unison.

The Xuanling Sect was bustling with activity.

Lin Xi and the true disciples of Shuiyue Peak went to the Ascension Ground.

The stands around the Ascension Arena were already packed with people.

The constant whispering around me created a slightly noisy atmosphere.

On the day of the preliminary round of the Nine Meridians Martial Arts Tournament of the Xuanling Sect, the Zhenwu Sect and other dominant forces were invited to come and watch.

However, Lin Xi observed that he did not see any so-called external forces, probably because of the numerous Ascension Sites.

No one knows where that black-robed man who appeared in Xuanhuang Valley came from.

Lin Xi arrived at arena number 76 in Dengxian Arena according to the number plate.

At that moment, a young man in black carrying a heavy sword also stepped onto the arena.

His eyes lit up when he saw that it was Lin Xi opposite him.

Their initially indifferent attitude turned into a warm one.

"Junior Sister Lin Xi? I never expected that my opponent in the preliminary round would be you! It's truly fate that brought us together from afar."

"I am Tang Tai, the third disciple of Elder Jianfeng of Lingjian Peak!"
