"Go in."

Bai Youwei slowly walked into the city gate.

The two black-clad swordsmen guarding the gate couldn't help but laugh as they watched the woman's beautiful back.

"This young woman... she's really something. I didn't see her eyes, but did you see that little mouth?"

"She's dressed quite conservatively, but I wonder how big her breasts are. Tsk tsk tsk, it's been a long time since we've seen such a hot woman in Beiyou City."

"By the way, where did she say she was from?"

"The Yuanjian Sect of Nanjian Prefecture!"

"Oh? You mean the Yuanjian Sect, which recently not only won the Dragon Slaying Tournament but also swept the top two spots?"

"Yes, it's only because I didn't go that they had any business with me."

"Hahaha, you're just bragging. But it is indeed suspicious that someone from Nan Jianzhou would come all this way. How could they possibly have relatives in such a faraway place?"

"Who cares about her? We're just following the rules anyway. If she dares to disobey the rules, we can't help her now. Our Beiyou City can easily take her down."

"Hahaha, you're right..."

Bai Youwei looked at the street, which seemed somewhat deserted. However, the desertedness was not due to a lack of people. On the contrary, there were quite a few people. It was just that the street did not have the grand scene of Guang Shenzhou and seemed desolate and lonely.

She didn't care.

After navigating the streets and alleys, following the map in my mind, I arrived at a house that appeared to be in a secluded location.

She knocked on the door.

"Dong dong dong."

no respond.

"Dong dong dong."

Still no response.

So she stopped and stood quietly at the door waiting.

"crunch..."

When the door opened, a woman who looked rather old appeared, dressed in cotton clothes.

She looked at the woman wearing a straw hat in front of her with a puzzled expression.

"you are?"

Bai Youwei slowly spoke, "The Fire of Garan, the Light of Eternal Night."

The woman's eyes widened suddenly as she stared at the woman in front of her. "You...you are..."

Bai Youwei slightly lifted her skirt, allowing the woman to see the embroidery at her waist.

The woman was dazed for a moment, then immediately reached out and pulled Bai Youwei inside, closing the door behind her.

The moment the door closed, the woman knelt on the ground and prostrated herself before Bai Youwei.

"Tuduo, a criminal from the Garan Royal Court and a swordswoman from the Yongle Pavilion, greets Your Highness!"

The wind in Beiyou City blew gently, its chill as sharp as a knife.

The wind swept across the land, causing even more cracks to appear on the already desolate and barren earth.

The winds of Beixuan Prefecture do not reach the south.

Wei Tu looked out at the world outside the cave, where the mountains and rivers were beautiful and the world was vast.

He put away his cynical attitude, and his expression gradually calmed down.

Everything is fine now, and those memories of my past life should be suppressed a little.

Don't worry unnecessarily, or you'll only lose your composure.

Wei Tu exchanged some materials near the sect's warehouse, intending to prepare dinner.

Su Mi hasn't returned yet, and it's almost time, so I patiently prepared things in the kitchen.

Because she didn't know if Qin Shuangshuang would come along, Wei Tu still prepared a generous amount of food. Rather than being wasteful, what was more likely to be criticized was the lack of hospitality.

Besides, Qin Shuangshuang... although it's a bit of a pipe dream, she doesn't have any bad intentions, and at least she's wholeheartedly doing what's best for Su Mi.

Wei Tu was too lazy to bother with such matters, and as for being jealous of a woman... there was even less need for that.

Not long after, Wei Tu had almost finished preparing the meal.

The sound came from outside the door.

He washed his hands and went outside.

"came back?"

Su Mi was the first to enter the courtyard. She looked at Wei Tu and nodded with a smile, "Yes, you're back."

Then, under Wei Tu's gaze, Su Mi turned his head and said.

"Please come in, Sect Master."

metropolitan?

Wei Tu was stunned.

Unexpectedly, a very familiar figure walked out from beside Su Mi.

Of course we're familiar! We've even slept together!

He controlled his expression perfectly, but his eyes kept asking the woman in the white dress who appeared at the door, smiling at him, looking dignified and elegant.

Wei Tu was obviously asking the other person how they got here with his eyes.

Ran Xinxue, who appeared at the door, seemed oblivious and did not respond at all!

Doesn't she understand? She understands perfectly well! She's just acting!

Wei Tu immediately understood the other party's intentions. Although she didn't understand what she wanted to do, there was no doubt that Su Mi had invited her over.

"Would it be inconvenient for you two to have dinner together?"

"It's alright, you are the sect leader!"

Su Mi said with a smile.

Ran Xinxue glanced at Wei Tu at the door and said, feigning difficulty, "But... it seems he doesn't really welcome me."

"No way..."

Su Mi glared at Wei Tu, seemingly unaware of what he was daydreaming about.

Wei Tu came to his senses, abandoned his attempt to threaten Ran Xinxue with his eyes, and sighed.

"The sect leader has come all this way, it's truly an honor..."

"What nonsense are you spouting? How far is Baoguang Hall from here?!"

Wei Tu said in a low voice to the girl beside him, "Why did you bring this big shot here?"

Su Mi muttered softly, "She said she had something to talk to you about, but she didn't have time, so I just asked her to come and have dinner with us... After all, the sect leader gave us quite a few things when we got married."

The little girl was unaware of the wickedness of human nature and had no idea that behind the seemingly generous gift lay silent mockery.

Wei Tu, of course, couldn't possibly expose himself, and sighed.

"Okay, I see."

He turned and went into the room, and Su Mi led Ran Xinxue into their private pavilion.

The hall is very spacious and can easily accommodate three people. Even if you invite Lu Qingyan, Mu Xitong, and Jiang Ying to have dinner together, it would be fine.

Oh, and Xu Qingtan can kneel at the entrance.

Seeing the two of them catch up, Wei Tu calmly said, "Then please have a seat, Sect Leader. The food will be ready soon."

Ran Xinxue smiled and nodded, seemingly treating the young man as a sect leader and disciple, at most showing mutual respect, with no other connection whatsoever.

Is this the truth? At least that's enough for Su Mi to believe.

Just after Wei Tu entered the kitchen, Ran Xinxue sat down, and Su Mi made her a cup of tea.

Ran Xinxue looked around the room, even though the festive decorations, such as the double happiness character and the big red lanterns, had been torn down.

However, traces of their life together can still be seen in this place.

Two sets of teacups that are usually placed there, and two coats hanging on a coat rack not far away...

There are so many places to explore, clues everywhere... but what kind of clues are these? They don't need to hide anything; they're a young couple recognized by both their masters, and even by themselves...

Ran Xinxue narrowed her eyes, but spoke softly.

"How is life after marriage?"

Su Mi paused for a moment, then answered with a slight blush.

"It's alright, not much different from before."

Ran Xinxue looked at the girl's shy demeanor and chuckled, "How could there be no difference? We're living together now... Have you encountered any unpleasant things? You can tell me, and I'll help you deal with them."

Tell me something unpleasant about your life to cheer me up!

Su Mi thought for a moment and said softly, "There wasn't anything unpleasant, was there? Little Iris Peak is great. Both Uncle Lu and Senior Sister Jiang Ying are very kind to me... The other fellow disciples all respect Wei Tu, and I..."

This was not what Ran Xinxue wanted to hear, and her eyes darted around slightly.

"And what about your relationship with Wei Tu?"

"Between him and me? It's perfectly normal..."

"Has he been going out a lot lately?"

"Huh?"

"I'm talking about something like the Dragon Slaying Tournament. After all, he's a top disciple of the sect, and it's understandable that he has to take on missions often... What did you think it was?"

Su Mi shook her head in a panic.

"N-nothing."

Ran Xinxue whispered, "Could it be... that he often doesn't come home?"
