Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

Before Chi Junlin could answer, she frowned and looked at Ye Qiancao, saying, "Why didn't you just tell me? Why get your hands dirty?"

Upon hearing this, Chi Junlin laughed and said, "No, I just wanted to test whether she was afraid or not."

"Did you find the answer?"

"No."

The answer was obvious, because at the same time the two were talking, Ye Qiancao was already panting heavily, her face flushed, and she looked up at Chi Junlin.

Her expression seemed to say, "One more time! Let's do it again!"

When Wenren Tianxian saw her like this, he couldn't help but show a look of disgust and coldly gripped the hilt of the sword at his waist.

Did she say something that upset you?

"That's not true."

Seeing her like this, Chi Junlin stepped forward and smiled as he took her hands in his.

She continued, "She really didn't offend me, Wenren, you don't need to be so angry."

Upon seeing Chi Junlin's gentle smile, Wenren Tianxia immediately calmed down.

Her face softened, revealing a happy smile, and she nodded to Chi Junlin.

Looking at Wenren Tianxia's expression, Ye Qiancao knew that she would never, in the past, present, or future, show such a smile to another person.

Except for the Red King's Arrival.

Only the Crimson King reigns supreme.

So Ye Qiancao stopped laughing.

Then, Chi Junlin led Wenren Tianxia to the bedside and the two sat down hand in hand.

Then Chi Junlin spoke up again, "Never mind Ye Qiancao. We haven't sat down together in a long time, let's sit down and chat for a while."

"Yeah, too."

Wenren Tianxia smiled and nodded, saying, "It has been nineteen hours since we last chatted."

Would you like some tea? Shall I brew a pot?

"I'm a little thirsty, thank you for your help."

"It's okay, we're best friends."

As Wenren Tianxia spoke, he walked out of the room in high spirits.

After she left, Chi Junlin turned around with a smile on his face.

He looked at Ye Qiancao, who had no expression.

Chapter 185 The Smiles of Three People

While Chi Junlin and Wenren Tianxia were having a close conversation, Ye Qiancao's face immediately fell.

But when Chi Junlin looked at her again, she was all smiles.

It seems like his mood changes quickly, or perhaps he doesn't dare to offend Chi Junlin.

Chi Junlin thought for a moment, then asked her, "The Demonic Sect has been quite active lately. What are you planning to do?"

Ye Qiancao then asked with a smile, "Huh? Really? I haven't been paying attention lately."

"Weren't you sent by other demons?"

"Um……"

Ye Qiancao felt that Chi Junlin seemed to have some misunderstanding about the internal structure of the Demonic Sect, so she explained, "We all do our own thing, and some of us even have grudges against each other. How could I possibly listen to them?"

Chi Junlin nodded in understanding.

Then, he suddenly asked her, "When the spirit child kowtows, all kinds of evil spirits come rushing forth. When the ultimate demon is born, a hundred ghosts roam at night. What does this proverb mean?"

Ye Qiancao was stunned for a moment, wondering how Chi Junlin knew about this sentence.

But she still smiled and replied, "You're asking me this? I don't really know either. Because I don't really care about this."

Upon hearing this, Chi Junlin stood up, walked to her, pinched her face, and turned her to face him.

"You should understand. The Xiangxi Demonic Sect has been making a lot of big moves lately, including you. Recently, traces of the Demonic Sect's activities have been found all over the martial arts world."

"You're searching for the reincarnated child, aren't you? You believe this child will be the devil among devils, leading you to fight your way back to the Central Plains. All followers of the Demonic Sect believe this proverb, is that true?"

"..."

Ye Qiancao remained silent and did not reply.

Chi Junlin laughed again, "Don't underestimate my intelligence network."

Seeing that Ye Qiancao still refused to reply.

Chi Junlin then said with a smile, "Would you like Wenren Tianxia to treat you better?"

Ye Qiancao's eyes flickered.

Chi Junlin continued, "I'll need your help later. If you behave, I can put in a good word for you. But if you refuse to cooperate, I'll make sure you never have another chance to play with her."

Do you accept this deal?

Chi Junlin spoke with a very gentle expression, but his eyes carried a strong sense of oppression.

Ye Qiancao hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.

"good."

The oppressive feeling in Chi Junlin's eyes suddenly disappeared, and then he gently patted Ye Qiancao's head.

Ye Qiancao's expression was somewhat complicated at this moment.

She suddenly felt that she couldn't quite understand Chi Junlin.

At least, she couldn't figure out what Chi Junlin's current purpose was.

Just then, Wenren Tianxia pushed open the door and walked in carrying a tea tray.

Seeing this, Chi Junlin smiled and walked over to take the tea tray from her.

Then, the two set out tea sets on the table, sat facing each other, and began to drink tea and chat.

After chatting and laughing for a while, Chi Junlin seemed to suddenly remember something.

He then said to Wenren Tianxia, ​​"By the way, do you remember we talked about something before?"

"what?"

Wenren Tianxia put down his teacup.

"Ye Qiancao..."

As Chi Junlin spoke, he glanced at Ye Qiancao casually and continued, "Didn't she do one thing—swap the Buddha's head and the Taoist head, who were thousands of miles apart, overnight?"

"How did you think she did it?"

Wenren Tianxia thought for a moment and then said, "I guess she hired a master of lightness skill with unparalleled martial arts to take off one of the Buddha heads under the cover of night, travel thousands of miles to replace it with the Taoist priest, and then return to the Buddhist sect to replace the Buddha head as well."

Upon hearing this, Chi Junlin asked in confusion, "But a round trip is two thousand miles. Who could do such a thing?"

"So you hired two experts?"

"Two won't work either, right? Traveling a thousand miles at night without stopping, and carrying a Buddha head weighing over a hundred pounds? Who do you think can do that? I certainly can't."

"Hmm... then let's find a few more experts, like a courier service, one stop after another..."

"How much manpower and resources would that take? To go to such lengths for a prank? Isn't that going too far?"

"That……"

Wenren Tianxia frowned and began to ponder, seemingly unable to figure it out for the time being.

Chi Junlin laughed and said, "Why do you have to figure it out yourself? The original owner is right here, why don't you just ask her?"

As he spoke, he turned to look at Ye Qiancao.

"Too."

Wenren Tianxia also looked at Ye Qiancao at this moment and asked her, "How exactly did you do that?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qiancao immediately revealed a smug smile.

It seems that prank was her proudest achievement in life.

So he said with a smile, "Hehe...you're all wrong. Actually, I didn't look for any martial arts masters at all."

"What's going on?"

“It’s very simple. I sawed off the Buddha and Taoist heads in advance, and then had someone make fake heads out of mud at night. Then, I had people transport them by cart and horse, and it took several days to transport them to their respective temples, where their heads were replaced.”

Upon hearing this, Wenren Tianxia paused for a moment, then said, "It's that simple?"

"It's that simple."

"During those few days, the heads of the statues in their temple all changed, and no one noticed?"

"No one noticed! Those guys only needed to look up to see that the Buddha and Taoist heads were made of mud. But they chanted scriptures and prayed day and night, and not one of them actually looked up even once."

If any of them had looked up and examined their own statues closely, they would have noticed something amiss. Yet, they were only focused on burying their heads in offerings and chanting scriptures.

After they got their heads transplanted, I had to have someone remind them before they realized it!

Upon hearing Ye Qiancao's explanation, Wenren Tianxia was stunned for a moment, then immediately burst into laughter.

I laughed so hard that tears streamed down my face.

"Hahahaha...this group of monks and Taoist priests...oh dear...what kind of Buddha do they worship every day, what kind of scriptures do they chant..."

She wiped away her tears and looked at Ye Qiancao, laughing so hard she could barely breathe, "You...you're really full of mischief...this prank is really...really..."

Chi Junlin couldn't help but chuckle as he said to Ye Qiancao, "Should I say you're clever and quick-witted, or just have a wicked sense of humor..."

Ye Qiancao's expression couldn't help but be somewhat complicated.

It was the first time she had ever seen someone smile so happily because of her prank.

Chi Junlin then drank tea with Wenren Tianxia.

Suddenly, he asked Ye Qiancao, "Would you like some tea?"

Ye Qiancao then smiled and said, "If Miss Lin Jun is willing to treat me to a drink."

So Chi Junlin signaled to Wenren Tianxia to temporarily untie her.

After the ropes binding her were loosened, Ye Qiancao stretched her wrists and smiled at Chi Junlin, saying, "Thank you, Miss Xie Lin."

"You're welcome, but this is only for tea."

At this moment, Chi Junlin thought of something else.

So he asked Ye Qiancao, "By the way, there's something else I wanted to ask you."

"Miss Lin, please speak."

"On the first night, who was it that I cultivated with, you or Di Shanshan?"

Ye Qiancao was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

Then she gave Chi Junlin a bewitching smile.

"you guess."

Chapter 186 She Understands Red King's Landing Too Well

Now that Ye Qiancao has been captured and the events on Sword Emperor Peak have been largely investigated, everything is under Chi Junlin's control.

So theoretically, Sword Emperor Peak is no longer a threat; we just need to wait for reinforcements.

It is estimated that there will be two days and two nights before the reinforcements and military craftsmen arrive, so everyone on the mountain just needs to wait patiently.

So Chi Junlin thought to himself that nothing else should happen.

Relieved, he began to enjoy his recuperation time at Sword Emperor Peak.

-

After leaving Wenren Tianxia's place, Chi Junlin quickly returned to Wei Ziqing's room.

A considerable amount of time has passed since their dual cultivation last night, and Wei Ziqing's internal energy should be exhausted by now. Soon, his body will begin to feel unwell.
