"Don't worry, Junior Sister. I will definitely protect you."

"When the fallen demon attacks, I will immediately go forward to delay time, and Junior Sister will take the opportunity to go and find reinforcements..."

Jiang Dai didn't care about Liu Shengsheng's attitude and quickly talked about the next plan.

When Liu Shengsheng heard that she could escape, a look of joy appeared on her face, but she didn't care about Jiang Dai's life or death.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Senior Sister. I will definitely find reinforcements as soon as possible!"

After Liu Shengsheng said this, she took several steps back and stayed away from Jiang Dai. It was obvious that she was afraid that if Jiang Dai started fighting, she would be implicated.

Liu Xue and Liu Yue looked at each other, and finally stood silently beside Jiang Dai.

When Liu Shengsheng saw this, a gloomy look flashed across his face, but it was quickly replaced by pity.

Since they want to die, I won't stop them. These two ungrateful people were bribed by Shen Zhiyi with just one pill. Fortunately, I never trusted them. But do these two idiots really think that the fallen demon is an easy monster to deal with?

Even if she rushed to find reinforcements, it would be too late when she came back.

But these are their own choices and have nothing to do with her, Liu Shengsheng.

Liu Shengsheng pushed all the responsibility onto others without any guilt.

"roar~"

Soon, the fallen demon discovered the delicious food and took action.

With one claw, it overturned the roof of the dilapidated temple, and a cold wind moist with water vapor blew in instantly. The broken tiles and bricks fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust and blocking the view, but it didn't matter to the fallen demon. It stretched out its claws and grabbed the food it had seen before.

"Now, run, little sister!"

As Jiang Dai turned around to avoid it, he turned back and shouted at Liu Shengsheng, but after he finished shouting, he found that the other person had already run away.

Under the darkness of the night, only a staggering figure without looking back was left.

There was no sadness on Jiang Dai's face, but his eyes were slightly darker and the corners of his lips were raised in an arc that seemed like an illusion.

"Master Shen Xuan, be careful!"

Liu Xue's scream was heard beside him, along with the angry roar of the fallen demon after his grabbing failed.

Jiang Dai immediately retracted his gaze, and his expression suddenly became serious.

She pulled out the scales from her hair, which turned into a sharp sword. Then she exerted force with her legs and leaped up suddenly.

The long sword, accompanied by a cold light, tore through the night sky like lightning...

Liu Shengsheng, who had already run far away, was still frightened by the roar of the fallen demon. Seeing the wet mud on her skirt and her hair wet by the rain, she became even more angry.

"I'm so angry. If I had known I should not have agreed to come. I was going to turn it down. It's all my father's fault. He insisted that I follow him to monitor Shen Zhiyi and prevent her from escaping. Ha! With her silent and submissive personality, how could she possibly run away? What's more, she doesn't know anything..."

But in the dark night, no one responded except her complaints. When Liu Shengsheng came to her senses, she felt uneasy.

"Let's find a comfortable place to rest for the night..."

Liu Shengsheng shrank his neck and walked back along the road alone.

At the ruined temple, Jiang Dai did not give in, so Liu Xue and Liu Yue gritted their teeth and helped Jiang Dai attract the fallen demon's attention, but the more he insisted, the more surprised they became.

They had all heard of the name of the eldest sister of the Minghe Sect, and had seen Shen Zhiyi before. However, although Shen Zhiyi was famous at that time, she looked ordinary. She had never looked like she did tonight, like a pearl covered in dust that suddenly saw the light of day again, and was extremely dazzling.

However, with just one man and one sword, the fallen demon was defeated and could only roar helplessly. This was something that even the leader Liu Shanyuan could not do.

Liu Xue and Liu Yue soon realized that Shen Zhiyi had been hiding his abilities before.

The two looked at each other, with a light in their eyes that only belonged to each other...

Ling Si was both surprised and happy.

At first he just wanted to attract a monster over, but maybe the heavy rain hindered the spread of the monster-attracting incense. It wasn't until the heavy rain stopped that there was movement. However, the monster attracted was not an ordinary monster, but a fallen demon that even gave him a headache.

Seeing Shen Zhiyi sacrificing himself to let Liu Shengsheng escape, Ling Si was filled with panic.

He just wanted to use the external force of the monster's attack to deepen the relationship between him and Shen Zhiyi, but he didn't think of using the monster to kill Shen Zhiyi. But what should he do now that he has already gone too far?

Just when Ling Si was struggling over whether to help secretly, he saw the scene of Jiang Dai killing everyone.

Ling Si: ...

Was Shen Zhiyi so powerful in his previous life? Ling Si began to doubt his life.

But when he thought about it carefully, he found that all the information he knew about Shen Zhiyi was heard from other people. The only thing he discovered by himself was that Shen Zhiyi was unexpectedly cold but warm on the inside. He had never heard of similar rumors before, so rumors were not credible at all!

Ling Si was angry and depressed. He had been deceived by rumors all his life. It was so stupid.

While he was sulking, the battle was almost over.

Jiang Dai jumped up and slashed the fallen demon's head with his sword. The already dying demon fell to the ground with a bang without even a scream. The dark red blood with a fishy smell flowed all over the ground, which was very pungent.

Ling Si came to his senses and ran to Jiang Dai immediately.

"Master Shen Xuan, you are so amazing. I thought..."

But before he could finish his words of praise, he saw the person in front of him suddenly go weak in the legs and fall to the ground.

Ling Si only felt a "boom" in his brain, and when he came to his senses again, he had already hugged Jiang Dai tightly in his arms with both hands, and was even shaking uncontrollably due to the fast speed.

For a moment he thought he was crazy, as he had exposed some of his strength because of Shen Zhiyi's fainting. But after seeing the pale and pitiful Shen Zhiyi, he didn't care about anything anymore.

"Zhiyi!"

The cry that came out of his mouth was filled with worry that he himself was not aware of.

He used to be so handsome and invincible, how come he became like this in the blink of an eye?

[Ding! Capture target Ling Si's favorability increased by +10, currently at 30.]

Jiang Dai blinked weakly, his voice weak and intermittent.

"I...I'm fine...I just...need to...sleep for a while..."

After saying this, Jiang Dai closed his eyes and fainted completely.

Ling Si's heart almost stopped beating. He checked carefully and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Jiang Dai had no external injuries.

But in the next second, two weapons were pointed at his back.

"Who are you? What's your intention in following Master Shen Xuan?"

Liu Xue and Liu Yue looked alert.

Although this man seemed to care about Master Shen Xuan very much, they heard that this man was just an ordinary handsome man, commonly known as a beautiful waste, but the speed he just burst out was not at all like a waste.

Master Shen Xuan is currently very weak, so they must protect him.

Ling Si's face flashed with impatience. He wanted to kill the two men directly. Anyway, Shen Zhiyi had fainted and there was no one else around. Even if he took action, no one would notice. But he remembered that he seemed to be about to let these two men go not long ago...

Ling Si sighed and turned his head helplessly.

"I am Li Si, an ordinary person. I follow Master Shen Xuan to repay him for saving my life. At the same time..."

A hint of red appeared on his ears, and he endured the shame and stuttered:

"I fell in love with Master Shen Xuan at first sight. Although I know in my heart that there is no possibility for me and Master Shen Xuan, as long as she needs me, I am willing to be her servant forever... I don't know why the two Masters misunderstood me?"

Liu Xue and Liu Yue were stunned.

She turned out to be Master Shen Xuan's admirer. Could it be that they really misunderstood? But...

Liu Xue questioned, "Then how come you caught Master Shen Xuan so quickly just now?"

Ling Si scratched his head embarrassedly.

"This may be... the power of love. I used to hear old people say that love can make people surpass their limits. Now it seems to be true."

Liu Xue and Liu Yue: ...

They always felt something was wrong, but they couldn't find any evidence.

Seeing Ling Si's blushing face, Liu Xue and Liu Yue were half-believing and half-doubting, but finally chose to stay put. One of them stayed to take care of Shen Zhiyi and supervise Ling Si, while the other went to clean up the fallen demon's body.

The dilapidated temple, which had only a hole in it before, has now turned into a pile of ruins. The only place to live is the carriage that managed to escape, so the unconscious Jiang Dai was naturally sent to the carriage and properly placed, although the horse pulling the carriage had long since disappeared in fright.

At this time, the sky also turned white.

When Jiang Dai woke up, it was already noon.

She did not open her eyes immediately, but checked the favorability first. After confirming that the prompt she heard before she fell into a coma was not an illusion, she smiled with satisfaction.

"Not bad. Not only did we have a very satisfying fight, which also improved the tacit understanding between me and Lin Guang, but also unexpectedly increased our favorability. It's a double blessing! But the exhaustion after all the strength was drained out makes me a little unhappy..."

008 A sudden reminder.

"That fallen demon was lured here by Ling Si."

Jiang Dai: ...

She was a little speechless, but not surprised at all. As early as when the fallen demon appeared, she had guessed that it was Ling Si's work.

I just wonder if he regrets his decision after failing to capture the enemy and being captured instead?

Thinking of this, Jiang Dai hummed and slowly opened his eyes.

"Zhiyi, you're awake!"

Ling Si was the first to notice that Jiang Dai had opened his eyes, and his expression instantly changed from sad to full of joy.

Jiang Dai propped up his arms and sat up with Ling Si's help.

"How long have I slept?"

Jiang Dai asked.

Ling Si replied, "It won't take long, just four hours. If you're tired, you can rest for a while. Liu Xue just went to a nearby town to buy a horse and hasn't come back yet, so we can't travel any further for the time being."

Jiang Dai nodded to show that he understood, then he opened the curtain of the carriage, looked around, and found that there was no one else except Liu Yue who was making a fire.

"Where are the three beggars?"

Jiang Dai frowned slightly.

In the beginning, she was only paying attention to Liu Shengsheng, and in the later part, she was focused on dealing with the fallen demon, and she didn't notice when Erye and the others disappeared.

Ling Si pursed his lips, not understanding why Shen Zhiyi asked three beggars passing by instead of him when he woke up. But he still answered.

"When Liu Shengsheng escaped, they also took the opportunity to run away."

Hearing this, a hint of disappointment flashed across Jiang Dai's face.

That Second Master must have some secrets, and she wanted to test him further, but she didn't expect that he had already escaped during the chaos.

Forget it, if they are destined to meet, they will definitely meet again.

"I have some personal matters and want to talk to Liu Yue alone."

Jiang Dai raised his head and looked at Ling Si calmly, which made the other party unable to bear the grievance in his heart all of a sudden.

"Aren't you going to ask me?"

Ling Si asked through gritted teeth.

Jiang Dai raised his eyebrows, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"I don't ask because you are right next to me. I know you are safe, and I also know... you will definitely protect me, right?"

That look of trust made Ling Si's heart beat faster.

He didn't know why he asked this question, but one thing was clear to him.

Shen Zhiyi's eyes were bright and clear. While allowing him to see his own figure, he also saw his purpose hidden in the darkness...

Ling Si tilted his head in embarrassment but spoke very quickly.

"Of course, I've said before, as long as Master Xuan agrees, I'm willing to spend my whole life to repay your kindness to me... I'll go call Liu Yue up now."

His panicked back was just like his messy heart.

Soon, Liu Yue got on the carriage.

"Master Shen Xuan, do you have something to ask me?"

Liu Yue's tone was respectful and filled with gratitude.

"To be honest, I came to you because I have a question and I hope you can know the answer, but if you don't want to answer, I won't force you..."

Jiang Dai spoke in a gentle voice, and without waiting for Liu Yue to ask, he directly asked the question.

"I want to know, besides Liu Shanyuan and Liu Shengsheng, how many other people in Minghe Sect know about my status as a sect leader?"

Liu Yue's body shook, and her eyes were filled with shock.

She had just learned the word "door" before leaving Minghe Sect. She didn't expect that Shen Zhiyi not only knew it a long time ago, but also...

She clenched her fists and her eyes struggled, but when she thought that Jiang Dai was her savior, she made a decision.

Liu Yue's face became solemn and her tone became serious.

"Since Master Shen Xuan wants to know, I will tell you everything I know. But Master Shen Xuan should know that after this moment, you haven't asked me any questions, and I haven't answered you. The content of today's conversation can only be known by the two of us. Even Liu Xue is unaware of it."

Seeing Jiang Dai nod, Liu Yue took a deep breath.

“…Actually, I don’t know much, but there are two things that may be related to your question.”

"The first thing is that the leader that Minghe Sect was going to elect was originally someone else. When Liu Shanyuan brought back the Taichu Lock, the people in the sect were very happy. But when they found out that the Taichu Lock was missing something and couldn't be used, they lost interest. It wasn't until Liu Shanyuan guaranteed that he had a way to use the Taichu Lock and disappeared for two years before returning that he successfully became the leader of Minghe Sect."

"The second thing..."

Liu Yue raised her head, with a clear hatred in her eyes.

"Liu Yue and I are actually both Liu Shanyuan's biological daughters, and there are more than just the two of us..."
