The early morning sunlight shone into the house from the yard, and as time passed, it shone into the corners of the wall. Jiang Tingwan, who was lying on the bed, turned over comfortably and stretched.

I had a very sound sleep.

She sighed in her heart and opened her eyes sleepily. She was startled to see a fox with red eyes staring at her in a daze.

"You scared me!" Jiang Tingwan pulled back in fear.

Suijiu was still immersed in thinking: How did he find out?

Jiang Tingwan: What did you find?

Sui Jiu looked behind her and did not answer, just thinking.

Jiang Tingwan turned her head in confusion, and looked in the direction she was looking, and immediately saw Mu Yunzhong sitting beside the bed.

"Master is awake?" He asked her softly with a nice smile.

Jiang Tingwan was so frightened that he sat up and moved slowly towards the bed.

"Huh? Why are you here?"

"Master mobilized the power of the golden elixir yesterday and fainted due to exhaustion. I was worried about you, so I stayed here all night..." Mu Yunzhong looked at her and replied. After that, he paused, looked at the sky outside, and added, "One day."

"Ha, you are so thoughtful!" As soon as Jiang Tingwan saw him, he remembered everything that happened yesterday. For a moment, he didn't know how to face him and could only reply to him vaguely.

However, before one thing was resolved, another one arose. Sui Jiu behind him asked directly, "Did he find out that you are not Bai Wangshu?"

Huh? Jiang Tingwan looked at her in shock.

Jiang Tingwan: How is that possible?

"Master, what's wrong?" Mu Yunzhong asked deliberately.

"I'm fine! It's just..." Jiang Tingwan broke out in a cold sweat after hearing the news.

Amidst the chaos and turmoil, they, the man and the fox, were talking to her, causing her to turn her head back and forth.

Suijiu's tone was full of confusion: Really? I thought about it all night and couldn't figure out how you were exposed?

Jiang Tingwan: Shit, what should I do? Am I going to die?

In the face of life and death, that kiss suddenly became insignificant.

"But Master, did you sweat a lot?"

Mu Yun was still asking, and Jiang Tingwan quickly touched his forehead, sweating profusely.

Suijiu also replied: Not yet, but I guess he is not far from death.

Jiang Tingwan: What do you mean? Please explain it more clearly.

At this moment, there was a man and a fox, one was trapped in his own confusion, and the other was leisurely with deep and unfathomable eyes. Only Jiang Tingwan was thinking about such important matters as life and death.

Suijiu: What went wrong?

Jiang Tingwan: At this time, can you please care about me?

Jiang Tingwan's eyes almost popped out of her head. Just when she had no one to turn to for help, a hand reached out to her.

Jiang Tingwan recognized the owner of the hand and subconsciously shrank back with her head in her hands. Mu Yunzhong also took the opportunity to grab her raised hand.

"Don't..." She just wanted to say don't kill her, but fear made the remaining two words stuck in her throat.

He held her, and sat closer to her. With his other hand he took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off her head.

Jiang Tingwan remained in a dazed posture of fear, with her other hand tightly grasped by him, unable to get rid of it. When she looked at him, she saw a smile slowly spreading in his eyes.

It felt like a hunter looking down at prey in a trap. Yes, she clearly felt like a prey at this moment.

"Master, did you have a nightmare? That's why you are sweating so much?" He asked her as if on purpose.

Jiang Tingwan was confused. What was he acting?

"Ha... I did have a dream..."

While wiping, Jiang Tingwan glanced at the little fox on the side, holding on to the last glimmer of hope: Are you sure he has discovered it?

Before she could get a response, the force on her wrist pulled her towards him, forcing her to face him in close quarters.

The sudden approach also made her heart beat more complicatedly.

"Master, what are you thinking about? Why don't you reply to your disciple's question?" He asked, almost staring into her eyes.

She wanted to step back, but she couldn't move at all because of the force on her wrist.

"Or is it that the master is guilty?"

After saying this, Jiang Tingwan felt really guilty. Mu Yunzhong is now a big boss in the late stage of the transformation realm, and is only one step away from the lower heaven level. If he has any bad intentions, no one can save him.

"I... Master, how could I feel guilty?" Jiang Tingwan replied with gritted teeth, but turned his head away honestly, not daring to look at him, and hurriedly thought about the best performance route in his mind.

Seeing her reaction, Mu Yunzhong's mouth once again showed a smile, "Master said that he has many secrets hidden in his body. He told me one of them last night. I wonder if I can hear the second one today?"

He was too smart. Jiang Tingwan, who knew him very well, had already lost her confidence. The little fox beside her had long accepted the fact that Mu Yun had finally seen through her and was concentrating on thinking about the reason for her exposure. There was no way she could expect her to do anything.

His fingers were long and slender, with distinct knuckles, and he easily grasped her slender wrist. If she didn't answer, she would not be able to break free from his grasp.

She should have known that the stronger this kid became, the harder it would be to control him. Now, he has learned to threaten people just after entering the late stage of transformation.

"Are you sure you want to know?" Jiang Tingwan raised his head and pulled tentatively.

"The master wants to speak, and the disciple wants to listen."

"What if this secret is something you can't bear?"

Mu Yunzhong's eyes flickered, and the hand holding her wrist loosened inadvertently.

"Master, why don't you tell me about it?" He seemed to be pretending to be relaxed.

Jiang Tingwan knew he couldn't hide it any longer, so he simply admitted, "Okay, I admit, I'm really not your master."

There is a saying: Leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist.

But he added: "But if I say that I was sent by God to save you, would you believe it?"

There is also a saying: A perfect lie is half truth and half lie.

His dark eyes flickered again, and it was obvious that this answer surprised him a little.

"Oh~"

He suppressed the look in his eyes and dragged out a note lightly.

"You don't believe it?" Jiang Tingwan changed to a comfortable position and sat down. "To be precise, it was Ye Nanzhu who asked me to come."

When Jiang Tingwan mentioned the familiar name, the force on his wrist loosened a little inadvertently.

Seeing Mu Yunzhong was stunned, Jiang Tingwan's identity as the author came online directly, "Back then, Mu Xingzhi changed his heart and fell in love with her. He violated the marriage agreement between Qingfeng Sword School and Sanyuan Sect, and left your master alone at the wedding banquet. After hearing about this, she knew that her relationship with Mu Xingzhi hurt your master, so she swore to never see Mu Xingzhi again, and she also entered the Yellow Spring Road of the Soul Realm and did not pass away."

Mu Yunzhong's hands suddenly loosened, and his expression changed from relaxed to surprised, suspicious, and stiff.

"She met some old friends on the Yellow Spring Road, and heard about your master's drastic change in character. She also knew about your existence. Out of guilt, she asked me to..." At this point, Sui Jiu added, "Let us come to Sanyuan Sect to atone for her sins. I also hope to untie your master's knot and give you a normal life."

Sui Jiu, who was still in deep thought, raised his fox head when he heard Jiang Tingwan's words, looked at her in shock, and then looked at Mu Yunzhong's reaction worriedly.

For Jiang Tingwan, making up stories is a piece of cake. At the critical moment, he naturally has to make sure that the story is consistent and logical.

So she took over the initiative and grabbed Mu Yunzhong's hand. With an extremely sincere look, she looked at him and emphasized, "So now you can understand why I am sure that you are not the child of Ye Nanzhu and Mu Xingzhi. Because since Mu Xingzhi broke off the engagement, he has never seen Ye Nanzhu. And Ye Nanzhu, as a descendant of Wuchen Palace, has never had the intention of restoring the throne."

"That fox demon named Qinglan is just a demon beast loyal to Nangong Xiu. She chose you because you are the only human who can hold the Dustless Pearl. From the beginning to the end, she was just using you to revive her only master."

Mu Yunzhong's eyes suddenly darkened to the bottom of the valley. Her words confirmed each other's existence and confirmed Qinglan's existence. These few short sentences almost explained all her abnormalities and his suspicion of Qinglan.

He subconsciously shook off her hand. As she said, the secret of Jiang Tingwan was far beyond his ability to bear.

His expression suddenly turned cold and indifferent, and the light in his eyes disappeared in an instant, leaving only fear and disbelief.

"Mu Yunzhong?" She called his name tentatively.

But this name ignited his anger. He said nothing, but stood up in extreme anger and swept everything in the room with a wave of his hand.

The sounds of ping-pong and breaking filled the room.

He turned his head, still without saying anything, staring at her blankly, the muscles on his cheeks trembling slightly.

Jiang Tingwan on the bed was shaking with fear. Now he was neither the disciple who pretended to be cowardly, self-abased and allowed to be bullied, nor the good disciple she had spent so much effort to train. Instead, he was his original self, Mu Yunzhong who grew up because of a misunderstanding and a lie.
