God knows how shocked Su Zimei was when she found out that the Xia Yubing and Xia Changyan she was looking for were actually Bai Banxia and Qin Ju.

Because of this, she doubted the identity of her "predecessor".

The aliases of Bai Banxia and Qin Ju were naturally what Lin Fuping got from Wu Yuyu, and he helped to apply for their ID cards.

"Found it!? District 43."

Lin Fuping's tone sounded surprised at first, but with a toothache at the end.

Senior sisters, they are really good at running!

When Su Zimei saw Lin Fuping's reaction, she became more certain of her guess and her heart suddenly turned cold.

When Lin Fuping saw Su Zimei's face turned stiff, the surprise on his own face also froze, and an awkward atmosphere spread between the two of them.

After a while, Lin Fuping put away the surprised expression on his face, clenched his right fist, placed it on his lips, coughed, and said calmly:

"So... can anyone of us contact them now? Do they know the news we spread?"

"Banxia and the others have a single line of contact with us. Senior Wu Yuyu is the only one who can contact them directly. They know the news. According to what Senior Wu Yuyu said, they will do their best to join the Guiyao family and participate in the Lingyun Tournament."

Su Zimei stopped pretending and directly used Bai Banxia's name.

Lin Fuping became a little worried when he heard this.

"They want to use their family connections to get in? Isn't this a bit dangerous?"

The Lingyun Competition is a life-and-death battle for the families in each district, so they are very cautious and strict in selecting the participants.

The contestants are either core members of the family, the kind that share the family's honor and disgrace, or the kind whose life and death are completely controlled by the family, for example, dead slaves and substitute slaves.

The kind of slave whose life and death can be decided by the family's single thought.

As outsiders from District 91, Bai Banxia and Qin Ju want to participate in the Lingyun competition, so one can imagine what awaits them.

"How about you send a message to have them come back and join District 80, and then slowly move up."

Lin Fuping could not sit idly by and watch Bai Banxia and the other two fall into danger, but she did not dare to interfere with her senior sister's decision in her own name, because she knew that since her senior sister and brother could make such a decision, they must have thought it over carefully.

Therefore, she wanted Su Zimei to pass the message to Wu Yuyu. In the eyes of both of them, she was a senior, and the senior sister might listen to the senior's words.

And the key point is that I never clearly acknowledged my identity as a senior from beginning to end. The news was spread by Su Zimei, and I just made a suggestion.

That’s right, this is how Lin Fuping comforted herself. She called it emergency hedging.

Su Zimei looked at her with a look that said "Do you think I'm stupid?"

"Senior, are you ordering me?"

"No!"

Lin Fuping denied it immediately. He was not trying to be naughty. If he admitted it and his senior sister found out, he would be finished.

"It's just a suggestion, a suggestion."

Lin Fuping repeated the nature of the incident again and again, trying his best to clear himself of all charges.

"Oh."

Su Zimei had a blank expression on her face and said "oh" in a flat tone.

"Since it's a suggestion, I can ignore it."

Just a few words, and the winning goal was achieved.

Lin Fuping was stunned, her beautiful and affectionate peach blossom eyes stared straight at Su Zimei, and said in a low voice:

"Aren't you close friends with her? How could you watch her fall into danger?"

"It is precisely because I know her so well that I understand that I cannot change her decision."

Su Zimei only said that she couldn't change, but didn't say whether Lin Fuping could change.

If the information he had inquired about was correct, Banxia and the others had been looking for this junior sister.

and...

Lin Fuping should have been in Guiyao at about the same time as them, so how could she suddenly become a researcher at the Red Star Academy? Her endless supply of high-level elixirs, talismans, formations, and magical instruments all showed that Lin Fuping was different from them.

Su Zimei thought that Lin Fuping's mission should be different from theirs.

She deserved the attention of the Supreme, and she did not let him down.

The information she has obtained over the years is equivalent to half of that obtained by everyone else.

"You...do you know something?"

Lin Fuping sensed something was wrong. Su Zimei's attitude towards him changed suddenly, and all her previous respect was gone.

"Senior, what do you think the junior should know?"

Su Zimei's eyes were dim and full of resentment as she looked at Lin Fuping, her pupils seeming to be crying but not crying. She emphasized the words "senior" and "junior" particularly heavily.

Lin Fuping: ...

Okay, it seems she really knows.

I thought I could keep it a secret for a hundred years, but I didn't expect it to be exposed so soon.

In fact, if Lin Fuping had not been in a hurry to find Bai Banxia and Qin Ju, her identity could have been kept secret for a longer time.

However, when it comes to the people around her, the precious people, she always loses her composure.

"So what..."

Lin Fuping felt good when he was a senior, but felt embarrassed when he was exposed.

"I didn't mean to do that. I'm sorry."

Lin Fuping admitted his mistake straightforwardly, but then tried to make up for himself with a few words.

"My identity is not suitable for too many people to know, so it is not my intention to hide it from you."

The reason why Lin Fuping's identity and appearance were concealed at the beginning was not only to take precautionary measures in case Gui Yao discovered that someone from Kunling had sneaked into his territory and affected Lin Fuping, but also because Lin Fuping was still young and if he used his real identity, he was afraid that many people would not accept it and would pretend to obey but actually disobey him.

Although it will not be disadvantageous to Lin Fuping, some things will definitely not be as smooth as they are now.

For example, Lin Fuping spread the news that the Lingyun Competition might be related to the channel. For a senior who had broken through to Mahayana in Gui Yao and for Lin Fuping himself, these were two different concepts and results.

Therefore, Lin Fuping has never denied his identity as a senior.

But she never admitted it openly.

Su Zimei put away her resentful look and shook her head slowly.

After Lin Fuping apologized, the anger in her heart dissipated.

"It's okay. It's not your fault. We all have the overall situation in mind. I just... feel a little unfair."

Seeing that she was willing to speak out about her grievances, Lin Fuping knew that the matter was over.

"Then my senior sister..."

Lin Fuping mentioned it again, Su Zimei sighed

"I really have no choice but to call them back in your name. After all, they went to District 43 partly to find you. It's just..."

Su Zimei hesitated and said

"If they come back, it would be a pity for all the hard work and efforts they have made along the way."

After all, in less than a hundred years, the effort required to legitimately climb from District 91 to District 43 is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
