The group's favorite master, the story of a cute baby who travels through the book and defies t

A sentence that revealed the identities of the two people made Xia Zixuan and Su Qiaoqiao instantly alert. They also looked at the young man who called himself Mr. Qi.

He looked elegant, but perhaps because he had just gotten out of bed, his hair was disheveled, which made him look a little depressed. He was wearing a white cloth robe, a short jacket, and cloth shoes. His clothes were simple and casual.

Cui'er, who was caught in the middle, was vaguely aware of the tense atmosphere on both sides, but she was concerned about Bai Feifei's safety, so she didn't care much and directly told Mr. Qi her purpose.

Mr. Qi listened patiently and said nothing for a while. After a while, he turned and walked into the house.

"Come in, everyone. This concerns the reputation of Miss Bai, so we shouldn't discuss it in broad daylight."

Cui'er followed in immediately, and when Xia Zixuan raised his foot to catch up, he was grabbed by Su Qiaoqiao.

"Brother, I'm worried there's a problem."

Xia Zixuan patted the back of her hand gently: "It's okay, although I can't see through the other party's cultivation, but I can feel that there is nothing to be afraid of."

Since he said so, Su Qiaoqiao naturally felt relieved, and the two of them entered the door one after the other.

The whole house is not big, with a reception area in the middle, a bedroom on the left, a study on the right, and an inconspicuous back door leading to the backyard.

The four of them sat around the octagonal table. Xia Zixuan sat face to face with Mr. Qi, Su Qiaoqiao sat next to him, and Cui'er sat on one side.

There were a teapot and teacups on the table. Mr. Qi picked up the teapot but found it was empty. Then he put the empty teapot in front of Cui'er very naturally and instructed her to go to the backyard to boil water and make tea.

Cui'er was stunned holding the teapot. At Mr. Qi's impatient urging, she got up awkwardly and went to the backyard.

After Cui'er disappeared from the back door, Xia Zixuan spoke up, "What do you want to say to us behind Cui'er's back?"

Mr. Qi leaned back in his chair, placed one hand on the table, and tapped the table lightly with his fingertips.

"Are you from a big sect? Which sect? Taiyi? Tianyan?"

Xia Zixuan answered truthfully: "Xia Zixuan from Taiyi Sect, this is my junior sister Su Qiaoqiao."

Su Qiaoqiao couldn't help but ask: "How do you know we are from a big sect? Who are you? Where are you from? What is your cultivation level?"

Mr. Qi laughed: "Are you here to learn about Miss Bai's situation, or are you here to learn about me?"

"Me!" Su Qiaoqiao choked, glared at the other party angrily, and decided not to speak anymore and leave everything to Xia Zixuan.

As if to ease her embarrassment, Xia Zixuan asked in time: "Mr. Qi, were you the one who calculated Miss Bai's fortune three years ago?"

Mr. Qi readily admitted: "It's me."

Xia Zixuan's eyes became sharp: "Can you really tell fortunes?"

Mr. Qi sneered: "Why, do you think I'm a liar?"

Xia Zixuan didn't answer, but his expression revealed that this was exactly what he thought.

Mr. Qi didn't seem to care about being misunderstood: "Since you think I'm a liar, then nothing I say can be trusted. Why did you come to me specifically?"

Xia Zixuan replied indifferently: "What you say is one thing, but whether we believe it or not is up to us to decide for ourselves."

Mr. Qi narrowed his eyes, and after a while he relaxed his brows and chuckled.

"That's right! There's actually an interesting person like you among the newcomers of Taiyi Sect. It looks like Tianyan Sect won't have an easy time in the future."

"Mr. Qi seems to be very familiar with the situation between the sects?"

"You don't need to test me. I won't tell you. You can't possibly know who I am. Let's get back to the point. You came here for Miss Bai. I can tell you clearly that Miss Bai's appearance of being a bad luck to her husband is fake, but she is a bad luck to her husband."

Xia Zixuan frowned: "What do you mean?"

"She was entangled by something. I don't know the purpose. The only thing I know is that thing is preventing Miss Bai from getting married. But strangely, I found that there is a force in the dark that is promoting Miss Bai's marriage."

Xia Zixuan pondered for a moment, and after a while came up with a guess: "According to what you said, it is very likely that thing is constantly promoting marriages and killing all the grooms?"

Mr. Qi was quite surprised: "There is such a saying?"

"In the past few years, a total of 7 grooms have been killed. The real murderer appeared tonight. What is the meaning of the number 7?"

Mr. Qi suddenly interrupted: "You mean seven people have died?"

Xia Zixuan nodded, and Mr. Qi lowered his brows and thought for a while. After a while, he tentatively expressed his guess.

"I have heard a similar story when I traveled around. It said that a girl had reached the age of marriage and had seven grooms propose to her, but all seven grooms died. It was not until the eighth groom appeared that the girl was successfully married."

Su Qiaoqiao was so curious that she forgot that she was losing her temper and asked directly: "The ending of this story sounds perfect?"

"If that's the case, it would be a good match, but this isn't the ending."

"So what was the ending?"

"The ending is that after the ceremony, everyone discovered that the man who married the bride was a devil, and his purpose was to eat her."

Su Qiaoqiao covered her mouth and exclaimed: "Ah! How could this be!"

"Since ancient times, 7 has been considered an unlucky number by mortals. When hunters go hunting in groups, they always bring a dog with them to break the bad luck brought by the number 7. The resentment of the seven grooms who died actually gathered on the bride, causing her to be cursed with bad luck."

Su Qiaoqiao was stunned: "A cursed bride? Wouldn't that bride be very pitiful?"

"For the devil, the more pitiful the better. After eating the bride, he will be able to increase his power tremendously. According to the theory of the cultivation world, he may be able to break through directly from the late Nascent Soul stage to the Spiritualization stage."

Everyone present understood that the distance from the Nascent Soul Stage to the Spirit Transformation Stage was like a chasm in the sky. Even someone as talented as Xia Zixuan did not dare to say that he could reach that stage. This shows how tempting this evil method was.

Xia Zixuan raised an objection: "If this method is really feasible, why has it hardly ever been heard of in the cultivation world? Why don't the demons do the same?"

"Do you think it's really that easy to get married seven times?"

Xia Zixuan was stunned. Seeing the mockery in Mr. Qi's eyes, he was confused: "What does this mean?"

"After this happened two or three times, an ordinary woman would commit suicide out of shame, or no one would dare to propose marriage to her again. More importantly, this magic requires both parties to be willing to get married, otherwise it will not count. There are almost no people who can meet such a harsh condition. Now that Miss Bai has appeared, it can be regarded as a legend."

Xia Zixuan nodded to show that he understood, and blurted out, "Miss Bai is different."

"Ok?"

In an instant, two pairs of eyes were directed at him. Xia Zixuan then realized that he had accidentally said what was in his heart. He was so ashamed that he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself on the spot.

Su Qiaoqiao's anger, which had just subsided, flared up again. She glared at Xia Zixuan with gritted teeth, wishing she could hit Bai Feifei out of his mind with a stick.

Mr. Qi, on the other hand, had a rather amused look on his face, and his eyes revealed excitement: "Fellow Daoist Xia, you seem to have a good impression of Miss Bai?"

Xia Zixuan tried to keep a straight face: "Mr. Qi, be careful what you say. Miss Bai and I just met by chance. I just saw injustice and helped."

Mr. Qi obviously did not believe what he said and proposed an unexpected method.

"If that's the case, then it's easy. I have a way to break the bride's curse."

"any solution?"

"You and Miss Bai have a fake marriage. This way you can force out the mastermind and break the curse. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"
