Zhao Yun has been a loner these years and tries to keep a distance from women.

But now he wanted to get closer to He Lian'er, so he endured the discomfort, held He Lian'er's hand and said, "No way, we are from the same sect, we should take care of each other."

As she spoke, she looked around. All the people who had ill intentions towards them had gone far away. The only ones left were cultivators who came here to buy elixirs. So she pulled He Lian'er and said, "Junior Sister Lian'er, it's inconvenient for you to talk here. Why don't we go to another place?"

He Lian'er was thinking the same thing and nodded in agreement.

Soon, the two walked out of the crowd and headed towards an inconspicuous little teahouse on the back street.

Along the way, Zhao Yun didn't know how to get close to girls, and walked awkwardly beside He Lian'er.

He Lian'er was still thinking about how to get rid of Zhao Yun without anyone noticing, so she didn't say anything.

Soon, the two walked into the teahouse and disappeared from everyone's sight.

He Ronger on the second floor looked in the direction where the two disappeared, with an ambiguous look in her eyes.

At this time Xu Chong was a little anxious, and pulled He Ronger to go out: "Hey, come on, let's go eavesdrop."

"If you want to go, you go. I won't go." He Ronger raised her hand and shook off Xu Chong's hand.

"Why? Don't you want to know what they talked about?" Xu Chong knew the true identity of "Zhao Yun", so he was very curious about what the resurrected brother would say to the sister who killed him ten years later.

He Ronger glanced at him coldly and said, "Aren't you afraid of being discovered? Aren't you afraid that they will unite to deal with you?"

"No!" Xu Chong said without thinking.

"Why are you so sure?"

"Well, I guessed. Zhao Yun has been replaced, so how could she team up with He Lian'er to deal with me? Besides, I'm just curious and want to listen to what they say, not to fight with them. They shouldn't be so ruthless."

He Ronger shook his head helplessly, sighed and said, "You still don't know He Lianer very well. She is the most careful person."

And she remembered that what she said to He Lian'er ten years ago was heard by the former Zhao Yun, and she noticed the murderous intent in He Lian'er's eyes at that time.

Now that she sees Zhao Yun again, how could she not do anything?

Maybe at this moment, He Lian'er was thinking about how to make Zhao Yun disappear from this world without anyone noticing.

But at this time, she didn't want to get involved in the affairs of those two people.

She first wanted to see if this "Zhao Yun" was capable of dealing with He Lian'er.

Finally, seeing that He Ronger remained unmoved, Xu Chong had no choice but to follow her back to the sect.

At the same time, in a room in the backyard of a small teahouse in the back street, He Lian'er and Zhao Yun sat opposite each other.

He Lian'er saw that Zhao Yun was a little uneasy, and there was a flash of doubt in her eyes, but she never doubted the authenticity of Zhao Yun's identity.

Zhao Yun sat down for a while before realizing her mistake. She quickly called the waiter and asked him to serve tea and snacks.

"Junior Sister Lian'er, what kind of tea do you like?"

"Sister Zhao, you are too polite. Just give me a cup of tea."

"Okay." Zhao Yun responded, and then said to the waiter, "Bring two cups of tea and a serving of osmanthus cake."

He Lian'er was obviously stunned when she heard "Osmanthus cake". She looked at Zhao Yun and asked, "How did Senior Sister Zhao know that I like to eat osmanthus cake?"

Zhao Yun's face froze.

How could she not know? When He Lian'er was a child, she loved to eat the sweet-scented osmanthus cake he bought from Lingshizhai in the town. Every time he went back to Qixuanmen, he would deliberately pass by that store and queue for a long time to bring her one.

But at that moment just now it was as if my memory had returned to the past, and I couldn't help but mention osmanthus cake. I thought she wouldn't doubt anything.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yun quickly revealed a surprised expression and said, "Oh, really? That's a coincidence, I also like to eat osmanthus cake the most."

When He Lian'er heard this, her doubts were dispelled.

However, she clenched the packet of poison powder in her hand tightly, intending to secretly put it into Zhao Yun's teacup after the tea was served.

A hint of coldness flashed across Zhao Yun's eyes. She raised her head again and asked with a smile, "By the way, Junior Sister Lian'er, did you also come out to accept a special mission from the Mission Hall?"

"What special mission?" He Lian'er looked confused.

"Junior Sister Lian'er, don't you know? This time, our sect was asked by a wandering cultivator from the spirit world to eliminate a giant python entrenched in the dark valley. The sect believes that this is an opportunity for training, so it decided to put this mission in the mission hall, and disciples above the middle stage of foundation building can form teams freely to go together."

"Didn't Junior Sister Lian'er go down the mountain to prepare things?"

He Lian'er shook her head.

"Is that giant python very powerful?" He Lian'er continued to ask.

"Well, it is said that it has devoured more than a dozen nearby villagers, as well as a number of independent cultivators in the early stages of building. If it is not eradicated, I am afraid it will harm more innocent people."

"Senior Sister Zhao accepted the mission?"

"Yes. I have formed a team with several disciples of the great elders. This time we are going down the mountain to buy some equipment and will meet up with them when we return."

Hearing what Zhao Yun said, He Lian'er frowned slightly.

It seems that we cannot kill her now, otherwise she will easily be suspected by those people who are in her team.

With a flash of thought, she threw the poison powder in her hand into the jade pendant space.

However, He Lian'er still did not give up. She pretended to be very interested in the mission, with curiosity in her eyes. She looked at Zhao Yun and asked, "Senior Sister Zhao, is your team full? Can I be included?"

"Junior Sister Lian'er, are you going too?"

Zhao Yun looked He Lian'er up and down, nodded and said, "You are already at the seventh level of foundation building, so you do meet the requirements. But you still need to go back and tell the sect master about this matter. After all, you have just come out of seclusion for a few days, and the sect master may not be willing to let you take risks."

"No, my master loves me the most, and there are so many senior brothers and sisters forming a team, how could I be in danger? I will go back and talk to him, he will definitely agree."

"Okay, go ask the sect leader first. If the sect leader agrees, I will tell the others and we will wait for you together."

"Okay! Thank you, Senior Sister Zhao." He Lian'er smiled sweetly, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

Humph, it seems safer to let you die in the giant python's mouth in public.

Zhao Yun's eyes never left He Lian'er's face, so she naturally saw her expression clearly and guessed her plan.

He couldn't describe the feeling in his heart at this moment.

Who would believe it if I told others that my own sister was deliberately trying to kill my brother?

He kept comforting himself in his heart: She doesn't know that I am her elder brother, she just thinks of me as a senior sister from the same sect.

But then I thought, this is not the right way to treat my fellow senior sister.

Zhao Yun thought about what happened just now. When they first met, He Lian'er's attitude towards her was not right. Could there be some deep hatred between them?
