Infiltrating the righteous path? Just another place to be a sycophant.

Oh well, whatever. As long as she's alive, that's good enough.

But Lu An, just thinking about his monthly allowance, makes him grit his teeth in hatred!

Why not call him back and go undercover yourself?

No, I was a notorious woman back then, and if I show myself like this, those stupid men will surely come after me.

You have to play it safe.

Just as she was feeling troubled by her impending doom, a disciple with a bruised and swollen face walked in; he was her newly accepted inner disciple.

"What's wrong with you? Why haven't you gone to make contact yet?"

"Reporting to Master, Her Highness the Holy Maiden beat me up and then left on her own."

"What!? Say that again!?" Li Podao's eyes widened.

"I was about to leave when she stopped me, beat me up without saying a word, took my contact information, and went to make the contact herself," the disciple said, his face ashen and unrecognizable.

Li Podao closed his eyes and began to mourn for Lu An in his heart.

My disciple, in the end you still cannot escape this calamity.

…………

Taian City Yuelai Inn.

Why are there Yuelai Inns in every place? That's a good question.

It's probably because this name is easy to come up with; everyone can think of it.

Lu An was in his inn room, and sitting across from him was Zhao Mengyuan.

He racked his brains but couldn't figure out why the contact person would be Zhao Mengyuan, the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Is Senior Sister really that free? Wasn't she given a lot of work by my unscrupulous, hands-off master?

"How have you been lately, junior brother?"

"Thanks to my senior sister, everything is fine."

Business paradigm response.

"That's wonderful! Junior Brother endured humiliation and risked his reputation to become a traitor to the Heavenly Demon Sect, but in reality, he was infiltrating the Righteous Alliance. He did something truly beneficial to the sect!" Zhao Mengyuan praised.

But to Lu An, this praise sounded a bit sarcastic.

"Senior sister, did Master tell you everything?" Lu An asked tentatively.

This old man, no… this woman, didn’t she say that only she knew? How come a third person knows now?

"Tell me, junior brother. I admire you. If it were me, I probably wouldn't have the guts." Zhao Mengyuan's tone even softened with a hint of respect: "Junior brother, you have far more courage than I do!"

"Senior Sister, you flatter me. For the sake of the Heavenly Demon Sect, it is our duty!" Lu An returned the greeting with a cupped hand: "As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will?"

"Junior brother...you..." Zhao Mengyuan was a little stunned. She did not expect that her junior brother would say such a thing.

He truly is a person of great wisdom and righteousness! It's just that I've been too narrow-minded!

Lu An wanted to say that he was not actually doing this voluntarily, and he hadn't given it much thought. After receiving the mission, his master stabbed him in the stomach without giving him any time to consider it.

Isn't this a situation where you have to lie down whether you want to or not? If you run late, you'll have to send it.

Some stories aren't as noble and righteous as you think. I'm just a pitiful person who was forced to go undercover.

But Lu An would not say these things.

Zhao Mengyuan originally wanted to question him about his relationship with Yu Wanqing, but seeing Lu An's appearance, she seemed too embarrassed to ask.

They went through all that trouble to infiltrate, and you come all this way to question them? Wouldn't that break your junior brother's heart?

Moreover, my junior brother is in the Righteous Alliance, so his treatment as an undercover agent must not be very good, right?

Look at these clothes... they're still old. My junior brother has suffered.

However, Lu An touched the storage ring in his hand, which contained the thirty top-grade spirit stones that the Yuan Tian Holy Sect had given him yesterday.

It feels so damn good to get my monthly allowance.

“I admire you greatly, Junior Brother, but Junior Brother, what about you and Yu Wanqing…”

So Zhao Mengyuan decided to put aside her pointless jealousy and asked calmly.

"Actually, it was like this..." Lu An already had a story in mind, so he quickly told Zhao Mengyuan.

In short, he was forced into it; he was completely compelled to do so.

After saying that, Zhao Mengyuan felt a sense of relief, as if a weight had been lifted off her shoulders.

"You mean, Yu Wanqing is unconscious? And is she currently recuperating at the Righteous Alliance?"

"exactly!"

Zhao Mengyuan nodded and took a deep breath.

So where do you live now?

"Yuxu Peak of Yuantian Holy Sect".

"Jade Void Peak?"

"Exactly!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mengyuan's heart, which had just settled down, tensed up again.

Does this mean that his junior brother is now living with that woman, and although they don't share a room, they have opportunities to see each other every day?

It's good that he's unconscious now, but what if he wakes up later? Wouldn't we have to see each other every day?

Thinking about this made Zhao Mengyuan feel very uncomfortable.

His junior brother was so outstanding and so righteous, yet he just handed him over to that woman!?

Yu Wanqing! You really are... always trying to take everything from me!

I was the same way back then; I didn't even make the most of this junior brother.

In fact, she was already deeply moved when Li Podao told her about his junior brother.

He relinquished his chance to compete with her for the position of sect leader, handing the position over to her.

Then, enduring humiliation and defying the wrath of the demonic path, he pretended to assassinate his master, even at the cost of becoming a traitor to the Heavenly Demon Sect, all to infiltrate the Righteous Alliance.

This is such a grand vision!

If someone like that can't be Zhao Mengyuan's Daoist partner, then who is qualified?!

Although she knew that her junior brother was just an undercover agent, the thought of having to be on the same mountain with this woman every day made her feel really uncomfortable!

Lu An was a little confused.

What's wrong with Lao Zhao? Why has he suddenly stopped talking?

If Lu An knew that Zhao Mengyuan had such a rich inner world, he would be speechless.

Sister, you really don't need to think like that. A woman in the Tribulation Transcending stage is hundreds or thousands of years older than him. How could he dare to make a move on her so casually?

You too, I wouldn't dare to lay a hand on you.

Play the flute, write love letters, and if you don't accept me, that's fine. When it comes to love, whoever is truly in love is the one who loses!

"Junior brother, let me toast you!"

Zhao Mengyuan took out a small jade bottle and poured a drop of white liquid into a glass. A rich aroma of wine then filled the entire room.

"Senior sister, is this Spirit Immortal Wine?!"

Lu An took a sniff, and his eyes immediately lit up.

This is a really good thing. I wanted to drink it myself, but I had to steal it from my master. Now I can drink it directly.

My senior sister really loves me!

"Junior Brother, you have a good nose! It really is Lingxian Wine. I bought it especially for you!" Zhao Mengyuan raised her wine glass to Lu An, then raised her own glass and said, "I toast you, Junior Brother Lu!"

Lu An eagerly accepted the Lingxian Wine and drank it down without saying a word.

That crisp, refreshing taste, that silky smooth liquid, that intoxicating aroma—it was simply irresistible to Lu An…

Before my eyes appeared a scene of a female demon wearing black stockings... no... a group of fairies wearing black stockings.

That's wonderful.

But my head feels dizzy.

Strange, it's just one cup, it shouldn't be enough to make you drunk, right?

And does it really take that long to get going?

What year is this Lingxian wine from? It's so potent!

Lu An opened his eyes and saw that Zhao Mengyuan had placed the wine glass on the table, the liquid inside untouched.

Lu An sensed something was wrong, but couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Lu An tried to stand up, but he couldn't muster the strength.

"What's going on...?" Lu An was a little confused. Was his alcohol tolerance really that bad?

"Junior brother, is this wine good?"

"It tastes good, but how come I..."

"That's good, it can't move. I've downloaded something."

"What!?"

Chapter Sixty-Nine: Master, I'm Busy

"That's good, I can't move it, I've already downloaded something!"

"What!?"

These words completely baffled Lu An. What did his senior sister mean by this? She actually put something on him?

Could it be that Master was jealous of his handsome appearance and sent his senior sister to drug him and kill him?

That doesn't make sense. If he really wanted to die, there wouldn't be such a rush!

"Senior sister, why are you doing this?"

"Junior brother, you should know that the one who treats you best is still your senior sister."

As she spoke, Zhao Mengyuan did something that surprised Lu An.

She pulled Lu An into her arms and held his face against her broad chest.

really big.

Wait, what's going on? Is he dreaming? Why is this senior sister suddenly like this?

"No, Senior Sister, calm down! I've done my part for the Heavenly Demon Sect, even if I haven't made any great contributions. You can't just discard me like this after you've served your purpose!" Lu An said in a panic. "Besides, even if I'm going to die, shouldn't I at least understand why I'm dying?"

Feeling the softness and warmth on his head, Lu An thought that this wave didn't seem like a complete loss.

So comfortable.

"Death? Junior brother, what are you talking about?" Zhao Mengyuan asked, her face full of confusion.

"Senior sister, weren't you sent by Master to cleanse the sect? Even if I have to die, at least let me understand why I'm going to die, right?"

"Junior brother, you've misunderstood. I didn't drug you to kill you; it was for another reason."

Zhao Mengyuan put Lu An on the bed, and then began to grope him.

Lu An was shocked and tried to resist, but his limbs were weak and he was unable to fight back.

In the dim candlelight, Lu An felt something soft press down on him and sit on his lap.

That's Zhao Mengyuan.

“Junior brother, I’ve always been competitive. To be frank, I can understand you hanging out with Yu Wanqing for the sake of the undercover mission, but if you develop feelings for her like this, that’s something I absolutely don’t want.”

Lu An was bewildered, wondering what this all meant. What kind of feelings were these?

He was only trying to help Yu Wanqing to save her, but that makes people think all sorts of things?
