Are all the love-brained villains my apprentices?

“But Xiao Ping’an is really perceptive.

Even small details like this can be noticed.”

Lin Wenyu sighed casually.

Zhu Ping'an stood up suddenly.

Lin Wenyu: ???

“Master, I just came out of the secret realm, and my realm is not stable enough.

I'm going to practice first."

After speaking a long string of words in one breath, Zhu Ping'an's ears turned red and he hurriedly left the main hall.

Only Lin Wenyu was left standing there with a confused look on her face.

【Xiaoyi, what happened to Xiaopingan? 】

Lin Wenyu, who was puzzled, asked Xiaoyi.

[I don’t know]

Xiaoyi was also confused and even pulled up the progress bar to check.

[The progress hasn’t dropped yet? 】

As the two were confused with each other, a paper crane flew into the main hall.

Lin Wenyu took apart the paper crane.

Inside was Du Sheng's handwriting, which only contained a short sentence.

"Hede Hall, we have something to discuss, come quickly."

After reading it, the paper crane will automatically disappear.

Lin Wenyu knew that it was probably because of Cheng Junze, so she took Qinglan out.

After the Qinglan Sword came out, it was not as quiet as usual. Instead, it flew around and did not cooperate at all.

Lin Wenyu looked at the Qinglan Sword flying around in the main hall and heard the little girl in her mind saying that she wanted to go on strike.

With a light chuckle, he took out a few glowing spirit-nourishing stones from the space.

"Oh, I originally wanted to give you a few soul-nourishing stones.

Now it seems..."

Before Lin Wenyu could finish her words, the blue sword flew back to her with a whoosh.

She transformed into a little girl with two buns and swayed back and forth, pulling Lin Wenyu's sleeve.

"Master, you are the best.

Just give these soul-nourishing stones to this lovely little sword spirit of mine."

Qinglan blinked her big watery eyes and looked at Lin Wenyu pitifully.

Lin Wenyu couldn't help but rub Qinglan's bun.

“I can give it to you, but I have to hurry to Hede Hall.

This time..."

Without waiting for Lin Wenyu to say more, Qinglan spoke immediately.

"Master, I'll take you there."

"Oh? Didn't you just say you wanted to go on strike?" Lin Wenyu raised her eyebrows.

"That's definitely not what I said!"

Qinglan vowed solemnly and demonstrated himself through practical actions.

Qinglan, as a sword spirit, can exist at the same time as the main body.

Qinglan summoned out his own sword, pushed Lin Wenyu onto the sword, and then he also climbed onto the sword.

"Master, I will take you there right away."

Without waiting for Lin Wenyu to speak, Qinglan rushed out of the main hall window and flew towards the Hede Hall.

Arriving outside the Hede Hall, Qinglan put away the sword, stood obediently, and stared at Lin Wenyu with his big eyes blinking.

His eyes were full of anticipation.

Seeing the obvious desire in her little sword spirit's eyes, Lin Wenyu stopped teasing Qinglan.

Put the spirit-nourishing stone into Qinglan’s hand.

Qinglan happily counted the spirit-nourishing stones that were stuffed into his hands.

"One, two, three...seven?"

When Qinglan counted to seven, a look of confusion appeared on his face.

"Eh? Why are there three more?"

"I promised you that in the secret realm."

Meeting Qinglan's puzzled gaze, Lin Wenyu began to explain.

"Master! You are so kind!"

Qinglan happily threw herself into Lin Wenyu's arms.

"Okay, okay, I have to go in."

Lin Wenyu looked at the little guy who was only as tall as her waist, raised her hand and patted its bun.

Qinglan obediently let go of Lin Wenyu.

"Okay, Master, please come in."

Qinglan happily returned to Lin Wenyu's sea of ​​consciousness with the spirit-nourishing stone.

Lin Wenyu walked towards Hede Hall.

When Lin Wenyu pushed open the door of Hede Hall, there were several other people sitting in the hall besides Du Sheng.

Elder Wen, Elder Ji, and Elder Zhan are all here.

However, the expressions on their faces were not pretty.

"What's wrong with all of them?"

Lin Wenyu's voice brought the few people who had originally looked unhappy back to their senses.

"Immortal Venerable."

The solemn expressions on the faces of the people except Du Sheng faded away, and they stood up to greet Lin Wenyu.

Watari also stood up.

"Little uncle."

"Ah."

Lin Wenyu walked to the empty seat next to Du Sheng and sat down.

"What are you guys talking about? Why are your expressions so ugly?"

Du Sheng sat down, poured Lin Wenyu a cup of spiritual tea and pushed it in front of Lin Wenyu.

"Uncle Junior Master, do you know Cheng Anshi?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Wenyu knew what they had been talking about.

Lin Wenyu leaned lazily on the back of the chair and picked up the tea that Du Sheng pushed over to her.

"Know? If you're talking about Cheng Junze's father, the two people who are called traitors.

I do know.

Any more, I don’t know. "

When Du Sheng heard Lin Wenyu say this, he sighed softly.

"Master Junior was in seclusion during that time, so it's normal that he didn't know."

Du Sheng paused, remained silent for a moment, and then spoke to Lin Wenyu.

"Besides that, Cheng Anshi is also an old friend of Master."

Lin Wenyu's hand, which was holding the teacup, paused.

"Senior brother's friend?

How come I didn’t know about this?”

“Master and Cheng Anshi became good friends over a hundred years ago.

At that time, my junior uncle was in seclusion for many years.

Not long after that, because of that incident, Master entrusted the Xuanling Sect to me and went to the back mountain for seclusion...

It’s normal that Junior Master Uncle doesn’t know.”

When the word "Master" was mentioned, Du Sheng's eyes dimmed for a moment.

But this gloom only lasted for a moment.

Lin Wenyu understood the hidden meaning in Du Sheng's words.

"You mean Cheng Anshi's case isn't as simple as it seems?"
