The saint's eyes seemed to shimmer with boundless romance: "In my life before this, I always felt like I was living in a daze."

"..."

Lu Xining stared at the saintess for a few moments, then said, "You like him that much? I don't believe it. You have to prove it."

"Why are you being so competitive, little sister?" The saintess chuckled. "I've heard that people who are too competitive tend to value profit and have no tenderness or other emotions in their hearts... Little sister, you're not like that, are you?"

"What, afraid to prove it?" Lu Xining provoked, "Afraid of exposing your lying?"

"You're overthinking it, little sister."

The saintess maintained her smile and gently shook her head, saying, "Sister, I'm just afraid you'll deliberately make things difficult for me, like... asking me things you can't even prove yourself, intentionally setting obstacles for me. At that time, even if I'm sincere, I won't be able to get past your sarcastic and mean-spirited tactics."

The tea smelled of tea... Lu Xining sneered, "I won't make things difficult for you. The method of proof is very simple."

"Since you like Xiao so much, you probably wouldn't mind kissing or sleeping with him, right?"

"Don't tell me you have such a passionate heart, yet you're unwilling to give up your body."

"..."

The saintess's eyes widened slightly.

This little girl... seems to have a slightly different thought process than most people?

"...Hehe, why don't you prove it to your older sister first, little sister?"

The saintess chuckled, "You're being so confrontational, probably because you're afraid I'll steal Xiao away? Well... how about I let you see the true value of your sincerity first?"

"can."

After agreeing, Lu Xining turned her head to look at Fan Xiao, who was sitting on her left, and said, "Xiao, kiss me now."

After saying that, she lightly licked her lips with the tip of her pink tongue.

This... is not so much that she was driven by a competitive spirit to save face or to prove herself on the spot, but rather that this was her original purpose.

She wanted to kiss Fan Xiao openly and freely in front of everyone, especially her sister, in a reasonable way.

It’s exciting to think about.

Well, this vase-like saint actually helped her out.

Yes, she deduced that the saint was all talk and no action—it was a deduction, not a deduction.

What was the status and position of the saintess?

Fan Xiao, a poor boy from a remote district, suddenly caught the eye of the Holy Maiden and entered her heart, and was loved to death by her... This isn't a romance drama, how could it be?

Presumably, this holy maiden of the Heavenly Righteous Sect approached Fan Xiao for some kind of benefit.

Such a person would naturally not actually offer their body.

"Hmph, trash..." Lu Xining thought disdainfully.

On the other side, just as Lu Xining had guessed, the Holy Maiden did indeed experience some wavering in her heart.

Oh my god... this girl is serious!?

She seemed to have underestimated the other person...

What should we do now?

If this guy really kisses her, or even dares to sleep with her... is she really going to offer herself up for the sake of pointless competitiveness?

This girl doesn't play by the rules!

Meanwhile, Lu Baizhi, who was next to Lu Xining, was also caught in a huge dilemma.

Should we stop it... or should we stop it?

Should we make a huge sacrifice to fight against a common enemy, allowing my sister to do whatever she wants to Fan Xiao right in front of her and under her nose?

She was extremely hesitant.

Just then, Fan Xiao, who had been watching from the sidelines, finally made a move.

He lightly touched his forehead, his face darkening, and said, "That's enough. Saying these things in front of me... don't you think it's nauseating? I'm getting goosebumps."

“It’s not numb,” Lu Xining said, closing her legs slightly under the table. “It’s just a little itchy though.”

"..."

Fan Xiao didn't react yet, but the Saintess's eye twitched almost imperceptibly.

It's a little itchy... She understood immediately.

This little girl...doesn't she have any sense of ethics or shame at all?

His sister was sitting right next to him, wasn't she?

And his sister clearly has feelings for Fan Xiao... Isn't this guy afraid that his sister will fight him?

"Xiao, hurry up and kiss me."

Lu Xining raised her head and urged, "I'm very angry. I'm going to prove this woman wrong."

"..."

"Hmph, this woman is so arrogant, it will probably take several minutes of French kissing to make her submit."

Lu Xining continued, "Xiao, hurry up, I don't want her to look down on me."

Then, seeing that Fan Xiao didn't move, Lu Xining stood up and took the initiative to approach him.

What a shy husband! There was nothing she could do but have to take the initiative...

*Slap*—A bloody hand reached out from behind Fan Xiao and forcibly pushed Lu Xining, who had just stood up, back down.

He said with a serious expression, "Xi Ning, please sit down. I've gathered you all together to discuss serious matters. Let's leave the jokes at that."

I have to act serious, because Lu Xining... she really dares to go for it!

Fan Xiao admitted that he was thick-skinned, but he couldn't bring himself to have a long French kiss with Lu Xining under the watchful eyes of Lu Baizhi, the Saintess, and Ying.

Although it sounds exciting and tempting...

But he should at least have some self-respect, shouldn't he?

Being thick-skinned doesn't mean being completely shameless!

Lu Xining, who was held down by the bloody hand, struggled a few times. After realizing that she could not break free of the restraint without using real skills, she frowned and could only suppress the burning desire in her heart, giving Fan Xiao face for the time being.

All I heard her say was, "Ouch, my shoulder hurts so much, you broke my bone."

"..." Fan Xiao withdrew his bloodied hand: "Is it really that exaggerated?"

“Yes,” Lu Xining nodded, “Please rub it for me tonight, it hurts so much and it’s a little itchy.”

"..."

Fan Xiao suppressed the urge to pin her down on the table and roughly ravage her, and got down to business, saying, "I am a member of the Court of Life, you all already know that..."

“Wait a minute,” Sakura frowned, “when did you say that? When did I find out?”

It's the Living Tribunal... Does this guy have such a terrifying background?

Sakura glanced at the saintess subconsciously and found that the saintess did not show any surprise on her face.

Is she the only one who doesn't know this?

Fan Xiao did not answer Ying's question, but looked at the saintess and asked, "You didn't tell her?"

"Darling, you haven't told me anything." The saintess shook her head. "I don't know your identity either, so how can I tell Sakura?"

"Ah……"

Upon hearing the title "Holy Maiden," Lu Xining let out a cold laugh.

It's as if they're mocking the other person for having their lies exposed and still having the nerve to call them by such an intimate nickname.

"..."

The saint pretended not to hear.

This little girl seems to be a carnivore... she's kind of her natural enemy.

"Don't pretend in front of me. With the information you have, you must have already guessed it. I won't explain your identity any further."

Fan Xiao got to the point: "The purpose of this gathering is... the Living Tribunal is about to establish a branch at node G08, and I would like to invite you all to join us."

"I'm fine, and Sakura is fine too."

The saintess nodded, agreeing very readily, which was somewhat surprising.

But upon closer reflection, it makes perfect sense.

After all, she came here from Roman City on her own initiative, and she had her eye on Yu Xue Zhao from the very beginning... Her goal is most likely to join the Court of Life.

Or rather, she didn't know beforehand that she could join the court; she only knew that contacting Yu Xuezhao would bring her certain benefits, and now she accepted joining the court as a favor.

Upon hearing the saintess's words, Ying frowned.

However, he didn't refute anything and subconsciously complied with the saintess's arrangement.

The saintess continued, "Your senior sister has already tested us... Hmm, sticking that badge on your forehead should be the qualification test for joining the court, right? I've accepted the invitation on behalf of Sakura."

"But they..."

She glanced at the Lu Xining sisters: "Are they assassins too? Oh, by the way, I still don't know the names of these two little sisters."

“They are not assassins, but they can join as collaborators. As for their qualifications… I’ve vouched for them.”

After answering the saintess's first question, Fan Xiao introduced the names of the Lu sisters to her and Ying.

At this moment, Lu Baizhi, noticing the keyword, murmured, "Senior Sister?"

Fan Xiao's help... is it his senior sister?

So it turns out that Ms. Tina's students include more than just Fan Xiao... and the ones ranked higher are all women...

Fan Xiao had only told her and her sister that Teacher Tina had sent someone to help, without mentioning whether the person was male or female... She subconsciously assumed it was a man.

"Yes, senior sister, her name is Yu Xue Zhao, Teacher Tina's first student, an A-level player, who came from node C04."

Fan Xiao put on a serious expression and introduced in a normal and casual tone: "My senior sister left this morning after helping me."

"Nine players who plotted against me escaped using train tickets. My senior sister has high-level tracking items and is in charge of hunting down those nine people."

"Teacher Tina sent her here mainly to help me establish the court's branch at node G08. Um... I'll arrange for you to meet after the court branch is established."

That's the downside of being a jerk; if you're not careful, the girls around you can easily overthink things. So you always have to be careful, pay attention to the art of speaking, and take care of the girls' feelings.

For example, right now, he and Yu Xuezhao are clearly in a proper senior-junior relationship, but when Lu Baizhi murmured "senior sister," it immediately felt off.

Fan Xiao could sense that Zhi Zi was a little upset.

Therefore, he formally introduced his senior sister's identity, implying that she shouldn't overthink it.

"Is this so..."

Lu Baizhi looked expectant and said, "I've never met an A-level player before, and the other party is Fan Xiao's senior sister... I really hope we can meet soon."

As she replied, she kept telling herself, "Lu Baizhi, you can't be too sensitive."

“It is normal and reasonable for a teacher to have multiple students, including both male and female students.”

"Don't overthink it, um, don't overthink it..."

She quickly suppressed her sensitive thoughts.

Chapter 401 Kokkoro's Relief

Lu Xining accepted Fan Xiao's invitation without hesitation: "Xiao, you can arrange it as you like. Joining the Court of Life is fine with both me and Zhi Zi."

“Yes, sister is right.” Lu Baizhi’s tone became serious: “I will try my best to help.”

"Not bad, you're quite enthusiastic." Fan Xiao smiled. "Then it's settled..."

Next, he explained some of the rules of the Court of Life to the four people in detail.

The court doesn't impose too many rules on the behavior of its members, since the moment the badge is placed on their forehead, their character can be determined.

There are only three rules that an assassin must follow.

First, only those who revere life can judge it.
