another--

A woman in a light blue silk dress walked towards Yun Shushu with a smile, despite Yun Shushu's panicked gaze.

Hiding behind that woman... a woman also draped in a black cloak, half-shyly and half-timidly... waved her arms vigorously in Shi Yan's direction.

Shi Yan could even see that, like a Russian nesting doll, behind the girl in the black cloak, a petite Heavenly Demon with silver hair and twin ponytails was also cautiously, fearfully, shyly, and respectfully waving her slender arm at Shi Yan.

“He is Yun Shushu from the ‘Yunyin Family’…” Wen Ruya slowly walked down at some point.

Last month, Qingqing was still sitting nervously in the stands of "Huangtian Houtu".

It's likely that Wen Ruya gave her an order like "stay there and don't move."

Last month, Qingqing was such a sickly girl.

No matter how difficult it was for Wen Ruya to accept the orders she received, or how nervous she was that she was trembling all over... she would still obediently and earnestly obey them.

While Wen Ruya was introducing Yun Shushu, she focused her gaze on the woman in front of Yun Shushu, hiding behind the woman in the pale blue dress.

"Futian Gate?"

"Autumn tea?"

"That day...the woman who was with Shilang at the teahouse was that woman, wasn't she?"

"Then you should greet your master with all your might."

In front of Qiu Tu, Wen Ruya gently leaned against Shi Yan.

In Shi Yan's arms... Donghuang Li struggled, pulling her head out of the overly beautiful abyss. She raised her head and met Wen Ruya's gaze.

The war spread.

However, even Donghuang Li's older sister, Donghuang Li, couldn't surpass Wen Ruya, so how could Donghuang Li possibly compare?

Taking advantage of the situation, Wen Ruya grabbed Shi Yan's arm.

It was too late for Donghuang Li to fight back at this point, so she could only resort to desperate measures and grab Shi Yan's other arm.

"He is known for his auspicious transformations."

"The real body is Tao Ba." Wen Ruya smiled, intentionally or unintentionally.

"It is said that... a thousand years ago, his ancestor served the Fairy of the Jade Terrace."

Shi Yan's eyebrows twitched.

She looked at the horn peeking out from Yun Shushu's forehead, her eyes twitching involuntarily, as if... it did look a tiny bit like the horn of a small Pixiu.

This reminds me of the way the "Azure Lotus Sword Sect" treated the little Pixiu, as if they wanted to spoil it rotten.

This... wouldn't the "Hidden Cloud Clan" go even further?

If even the "Hidden Cloud Clan" has been taken down.

Then... I'm afraid I really have to seduce and subdue the entire land of Kyushu.

After Shi Hongjian entered the Enlightenment Realm, she had been preparing a grand plan for hundreds of years, but it had never been completed. In the end... she completed it herself in this unconventional way.

"He is a well-known kind-hearted person throughout the Nine Provinces and Ten Regions."

"And she's afraid of blood."

"Those two women opposite him... Shi Lang should have 'met' one of them, right?" Wen Ruya looked at Shi Yan with some annoyance.

Shi Yan certainly understood what Wen Ruya meant.

He was caught red-handed when he returned from the tea house.

"A chance encounter...a chance encounter..."

Seeing Shi Yan like this, Wen Ruya lost her temper and could only reach out and gently pinch the soft flesh on Shi Yan's waist.

But... as I kept squeezing, I couldn't bear to use any more force.

"In the widely circulated story of Yun Shushu... the other protagonist is her—"

"That senior sister of Qiu Tu."

"Du Gui, the successor of the 'Futian Gate'."

Shi Yan looked at the woman in the pale blue dress.

The woman noticed Shi Yan's gaze almost immediately. She raised her eyebrows and gave Shi Yan a charming smile just like Qiu Tu's, but the next second... her expression became quite strange.

Teacher said he was "kind" enough to greet her.

Du Gui almost wanted to grab his junior sister and run away immediately.

Unlike the brutes who devour flesh and blood, the inner demons nurtured by the "Futian Gate" possess extremely keen senses.

Seeing the two "enemies" that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, Donghuang Li could only tightly entangle Shi Yan's other arm.

Those I've seen... those I haven't seen...

There are just too many "enemies" in front of me.

I recalled the look of hatred that the Heavenly Mandate Master of the "Ghost Valley Inner Sect" occasionally showed when mentioning Sister Shiyan.

Donghuang Li sometimes even wondered how her sister Shiyan managed to do it.

If Sister Shiyan is a demon from beyond the heavens, she is definitely the one among the demons from beyond the heavens who can most captivate all living beings.

One of her arms was being held by Aya, while the other arm was wrapped around Donghuang Li.

Shi Yan could only maintain this posture, happily returning to the "Heaven and Earth" stands.

People from the Taiyi Sect have arrived.

Fortunately, the younger generation of "Heaven and Earth" have gotten used to the visits of the Holy Maidens to various holy places that were previously unfamiliar to them.

After casting admiring glances at Shi Yan, they quietly made room for her, and then their ears practically perked up.

"Ah Li!!" Donghuang Li, unusually... abandoned her usual composure and rushed towards Donghuang Li with a tearful appearance.

Donghuang Li wanted to hide behind Shi Yan, but Shi Yan gently took the girl's small hand and pushed her forward.

Looking at the familiar elder sisters in front of her, Donghuang Li's heart was pounding faster.

To be honest... a major reason why she hadn't dared to show up before was that she didn't know how to face her sister, Sister Qiyin, and the ancestor, given her "cowardly" and "harmful" nature.

But... when I actually stood in front of them.

I don't seem so scared anymore.

She slowly released her grip on Shi Yan's hand, hesitating... Donghuang Li slowly threw herself into Donghuang Li's arms, her shoulders trembling.

Shi Yan watched as the sisters reunited, embracing each other, creating a scene with subtle, defined lines.

Honestly, they're very pleasing to the eye.

It was even more alluring when the two sisters were looking at her furtively and occasionally...

It makes Shi Yan always feel like he's a bad person.

Perhaps it was because of her teacher's words, or perhaps it was because of her gentle nature.

Dongjun's temper seems to have softened considerably compared to before.

She looked at Donghuang Li with a helpless expression.

All I can say is... it's good that you're back.

It's good that you're safe.

It wasn't until the next morning that Shi Yan gently took the girl's small hand and inquired about the citrus scent in the carriage.

Donghuang Li held up the robe that had slipped off her shoulder.

"I killed Shang Yuelan..."

Donghuang Li's ears perked up.

Ah Li?

Donghuang Li looked at Shi Yan.

That's nothing to hide.

Even if Sister Shiyan doesn't ask, I will find a suitable time to tell her.

She took out a faint blue lamp from her storage ring.

It was exactly the same as the blue lamp that Shi Yan had taken from Loulan in Le'an City.

"He wanted to make a move on Sister Shiyan."

"but……"

"He doesn't seem to be the mastermind."

"I know," Shi Yan nodded gently.

"The mastermind is a man named Shin Kozuki."

"And that letter from last month—"

Donghuang Li captured the scene from Shangyue Lan's memory: "He was sitting in front of a strange chessboard, playing chess alone."

The black pieces have been decided—

The ghostly figure swayed and flickered in the drizzle.

Boom boom boom—

Several bolts of lightning erupted, illuminating the ragged ghostly figure.

In front of the ghostly figure... the little girl in the black skirt raised her head, her expression one of fear.

"Sister Shiyan..."

"Sister Shiyan!!"

"You'll regret this..."

"Teacher's words."
