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

Upon hearing Wenren Tianxia's words, Chi Junlin also revealed a cold expression.

He continued, "Then the only option is... to ask her in front of her."

-

Meanwhile, inside the Lou residence.

Liuli and Beidou, who have just emerged from the Youthful Appearance Room, have now made new friends with Yan Sijun and Di Shanshan.

The four looked at each other, seemingly unable to find a topic to talk about.

Tong Yan only told the four of them to get along well, but didn't say how to get along well.

The four people had different expressions at this moment.

Liuli is a bit shy and seems to have social anxiety.

Yan Sijun, on the other hand, is rather aloof and doesn't like to get close to people.

Di Shanshan was afraid of saying the wrong thing and causing others to have a bad opinion of her.

Beidou pondered for a moment, then took out a few candies from his pocket and distributed one to each of them.

Yan Sijun and Di Shanshan took the candy and looked at each other in bewilderment.

Seeing this, Liuli couldn't help but laugh.

She continued, "Don't find it strange. Beidou is red... it was brought out of the Imperial Mausoleum by Senior Sister Lin Jun. There are many things she doesn't understand. She gave you candy because she wanted to get closer to you."

Upon hearing this, Di Shanshan showed an interested expression and asked, "What do you mean by 'brought out of the imperial tomb'? You mean she grew up in the tomb?"

Upon hearing this, Beidou nodded.

Upon seeing this, Yan Sijun and Di Shanshan both wore expressions of disbelief and immediately asked, "What do you mean?"

How do people grow up in tombs?

Upon hearing this, Liuli laughed again and began to tell them about Beidou's previous experience as a tomb keeper in the imperial mausoleum.

The two girls looked on in surprise and exclaimed repeatedly.

Over time, they actually grew closer.

Feeling bored, Beidou stood aside and picked up a sweet shortbread to nibble on.

After chatting and laughing for a while, Liuli remembered something and asked the other two with a curious expression, "Hey, I heard you spent some time with Ye Qiancao at Cangjian Manor? What does she look like? Is she very scary?"

Upon hearing Liuli's words, Di Shanshan immediately replied, "Not scary at all, just an ordinary-looking girl. Quite cute."

What, you're interested in her?

Liuli nodded.

Di Shanshan said with an indifferent expression, "If you want to know, why don't you just go and see her? Isn't she locked up in the woodshed of the Lou family mansion?"

Chapter 228 Actually, I am Wenren Tianxia's younger sister

Upon hearing Di Shanshan's words, Liuli's expression showed slight hesitation.

She then said, "But Senior Sister Lin Jun said... that I'm stupid and easily deceived. Can I really go see Ye Qiancao? Is that a good idea?"

"Hey, what's the big deal!"

Di Shanshan then smiled and said, "Aren't we still here? With me here, she can't lie to you!"

With that, he took Liuli's hand and walked towards the woodshed.

Upon seeing this, Beidou and Yan Sijun exchanged a glance but remained silent.

But he followed behind the two of them, walking quickly forward.

Before long, the group of four arrived near the woodshed.

Then they saw two guards standing outside the woodshed.

It seemed that guarding Ye Qiancao was too boring, as the guards were starting to doze off.

However, upon seeing the four girls approaching, they immediately stood up straight and greeted them, "Hello, ladies!"

Hello to you all!

Di Shanshan smiled and nodded, then led the other three girls into the woodshed.

Neither of the guards said anything at this moment, because the captain had previously instructed that the women in the Lou family had the highest degree of freedom of movement.

They can go wherever they want without being stopped.

After the four women entered the woodshed, they saw a woman lying listlessly on a wooden bed in the corner, her hands bound.

Who else could it be but Ye Qiancao?

Now that Chi Junlin has left the temporary Lou residence, Ye Qiancao will be temporarily placed under guard and lose her freedom, according to her orders.

They will not regain their freedom until the Red King returns.

She was lying in bed feeling bored when she suddenly saw the four women come in, and she immediately became excited.

He then smiled and said to the girls, "Your little harem has come to play with me? Are you ladies going to take me into your palace?"

Upon hearing this, Di Shanshan blushed slightly and immediately spat out, "Who wants to take in a vixen like you!"

The other three remained silent.

Liuli looked at Ye Qiancao with a cautious expression, observing her true appearance.

Ye Qiancao also noticed Liuli's gaze and looked at her with a smile.

She then greeted him, "Long time no see, little sister Liuli!"

Liuli immediately looked nervous and hid behind Beidou, refusing to speak to her.

Ye Qiancao found it very interesting, her eyes darting around, as if she wanted to say something.

Suddenly, they heard hurried footsteps outside.

Everyone turned around and saw that it was Chi Junlin and Wenren Tianxia walking in from outside.

Seeing that Chi Junlin's expression seemed a bit off and that he looked somewhat annoyed, Liuli and the others remained silent.

When Chi Junlin saw that Ye Qiancao was still in the woodshed with her hands bound, he frowned.

Ye Qiancao seemed somewhat puzzled, as if she didn't quite understand what had happened.

Then Wenren Tianxia suddenly drew his sword, pointed it at Ye Qiancao, and gritted his teeth, angrily asking, "Who exactly are you!"

Several people were puzzled.

Upon witnessing this scene, Ye Qiancao seemed to understand something.

So, with a complicated expression, he glanced at Chi Junlin and asked, "You...have you seen her?"

"I'm asking you a question!"

Chi Junlin frowned and looked at Ye Qiancao without saying a word.

He seemed to want to hear her explanation.

Ye Qiancao could only sigh and say with a helpless expression, "Since that's the case, I won't hide it from you anymore."

Actually... I'm not Ye Qiancao.

The girls were stunned upon hearing this.

Di Shanshan instinctively retorted, "Then who are you?"

"I am actually Wenren Tianxia's younger sister, Wenren Xuan."

Upon hearing the words of "Ye Qiancao" in front of them, the group's eyes widened immediately.

Wenren Tianxia, ​​with an expression of utter disbelief, exclaimed, "Impossible! How could you possibly be my sister... My sister is already..."

At this moment, Ye Qiancao, who called herself "Wenren Xuan", looked at Wenren Tianxia with a complicated expression.

He then added with a wry smile, "I know you definitely won't believe it, but... that's the truth..."

I am merely an avatar of Ye Qiancao, from beginning to end... that's all there is to it..."

Upon hearing this, Wenren Tianxia shook his head repeatedly.

“This…this is impossible…my sister passed away thirteen years ago…she should have already…already…”

As Wenren Tianxia spoke, his face became even more ferocious. He pointed his sword at Ye Qiancao's throat and said, "You're playing me again! Ye Qiancao! I'll kill you!"

However, just as she was about to stab the other man through the neck with her sword, Chi Junlin stopped her with his hand.

Wenren Tianxia turned to look at Chi Junlin.

Chi Junlin narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Qiancao, saying, "Let her finish speaking."

So Wenren Tianxia gritted his teeth and slowly put the sword down.

Ye Qiancao looked at Chi Junlin with a complex and grateful expression in her eyes.

He then looked at Wenren Tianxia and continued, "Thirteen years ago... when Wenren Tianxia and I were both young, our entire family was killed and wiped out."

At that time, I survived only because I was protected by Wenren Tianxia and hid with her in a dry well.

Although I have no memory of what happened back then, on the way away with Sister Wenren, I was taken away by Lan Gexing, and from then on I grew up with Ye Qiancao, the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect.

Over the years, I have been practicing demonic arts and acting as Ye Qiancao's stand-in in the world.

Ye Qiancao herself was not particularly beautiful, but she was skilled in disguise, so she always disguised herself as me in her actions.

Therefore, in the eyes of the world, Ye Qiancao has a thousand faces, but no one knows what she really looks like.

Even the disciples of the Demonic Sect thought I was Ye Qiancao.

But no one knows that Ye Qiancao actually has two counterparts.

And I was just a substitute for her.

Upon hearing her words, Wenren Tianxia frowned again, feeling that things were somewhat unbelievable.

At this moment, Yan Sijun said, "Lan Gexing... I remember this person is, isn't he, the Demon Lord of the Demonic Sect?"

Ye Qiancao, or perhaps Wenren Xuan, nodded and said, "He was the previous Demon Lord of the Demonic Sect, the one who held great power in the Demonic Sect back then."

She was also the mentor of Ye Qiancao and the other three great demons, Zizaitian, Bian Renyao, and Guiwuji.

However, several years ago, when Lan Gexing was in seclusion for life-and-death cultivation, she was ambushed by her three other disciples and died. Since then, the Demonic Sect has been without a leader.

Over the years, the three major demons have been vying for power and profit, and none of them have truly unified the demonic sect.

Thus, the original demonic sect split into three major demonic factions: the Joyful Sect, the Profound Yin Sect, and the Corpse-Driving Sect, each led by a different demonic master.

The three major demonic sects are currently independent and hostile to each other.

Chi Junlin glanced at her, then asked, "Why did Lan Gexing only bring you back to the Demonic Sect, but not Wenren Tianxia?"

Wenren Xuan shook her head and then said, "Actually, I only recently learned about my background from Ye Qiancao. I only met Sister Wenren for the first time a few months ago."

As for Lan Gexing's purpose... I don't know much about her, so naturally I have no way of knowing.

Chapter 229 A Game Within a Game

Upon hearing Wenren Xuan's words, the women present all frowned.

Although Wenren Xuan didn't say it, they all sensed something strange about the matter.

Di Shanshan thought for a moment and then said, "Since Lan Gexing is the Demon Lord of the Demonic Sect, he cannot be judged by the standards of an ordinary person."

It's possible that she only wanted to take one of her sisters in and train her to become a demon.

Then, watching the two sisters grow up, each becoming either good or evil, I watched helplessly as they turned against each other.

The group agreed that it made sense and couldn't help but nod in agreement.

However, Yan Sijun then looked at Wenren Xuan and asked, "You said Ye Qiancao told you about your background? Why would she tell you this? Did she have some purpose in doing so?"

Wenren Xuan then showed a helpless expression and said, "I... although I grew up in the Demonic Sect, I actually have a very good relationship with Ye Qiancao. She has never treated me as an alter ego, but rather as a sister..."

I know that I grew up in the demonic sect and am not worthy of Sister Wenren's status as the leader of the righteous path...

So all I've ever wanted is to be by her side and catch a few more glances at her..."

Upon hearing Wenren Xuan's words, Wenren Tianxia's face immediately revealed an extremely complicated expression.

She had begun to believe Wenren Xuan's words to some extent by this point.
