Are all the love-brained villains my apprentices?

Zhu Ping'an calmed down and listened to every word Sheng Shuzhou said.

Then he gave a very pertinent evaluation.

"It sounds really sinister."

Sheng Shuzhou has now completely adapted to his senior sister's somewhat human-like response style, and his interest has not been dampened at all.

"Yes, yes!"

Sheng Shuzhou glanced at Yayin who was standing beside him with his eyes lowered, and abruptly changed the subject.

"Hey, the competition over there is about to start. I'll go over there and take a look."

Afraid that Yayin would worry, Sheng Shuzhou quickly made a reassurance before Yayin could even speak.

"It won't get far!"

After saying that, he took a few steps forward.

But even though he said he wanted to watch the competition, Sheng Shuzhou's small movements of tilting his head from time to time showed that his mind was not entirely on the competition.

Seeing Sheng Shuzhou's small movements of tilting his head to look at him from time to time, Yayin breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm not in a good state right now."

Zhu Pingan replied naturally: "Well, even my junior brother noticed it."

“I didn’t tell him originally because I was afraid he would worry after knowing it.

I didn't expect that hiding it from him would actually make him worried."

Yayin laughed bitterly.

"What happened just now?" Zhu Ping'an asked.

Yayin sighed and told Zhu Ping'an everything that had just happened.

"So, you think it was the cat that saved you in the end?"

"Almost right." Yayin nodded.

"There is always a white cat following my master..." Zhu Ping'an touched his chin and thought.

Is there any connection between the two...

The voice of Zhu Ping'an reached Yayin's ears, and Yayin's eyes flashed.

Zhu Ping'an's idea coincided with his.

After calming down, Yayin kept replaying the image of the white cat's nimble departure in his mind.

The more I think about it, the more it resembles the white cat next to Lin Wenyu in my memory.

Before this trip, Lin Wenyu had meaningfully warned Sheng Shuzhou not to wander off...

Yayin felt more and more that his guess might be true.

Zhu Ping'an is not as conflicted as Yayin.

Since she couldn't figure it out for the time being, Zhu Ping'an asked about another thing that concerned her.

"Do you still have the same feeling as before?"

Yayin shook his head: "No, after that, the feeling of being watched disappeared."

--------

Lin Wenyu raised her hand to catch the slowly falling willow leaf.

Although Li Qingwu's eyes were still red in the distance, the sadness around him had begun to fade.

The haze in his eyes dissipated, and starlight filled his eyes again.

The originally drooping corners of the mouth now have an arc.

Jian Yihan seemed to say something to Li Qingwu, and Li Qingwu raised his head and looked towards where Lin Wenyu was.

Lin Wenyu raised her eyebrows and landed beside Li Qingwu.

The little squirrel also jumped over a few times. Li Qingwu squatted down and patted the little squirrel's body.

"Thank you, I'm feeling much better now."

Lin Wenyu did not mention what had just happened, but just asked with a smile.

“It looks like everything is resolved.

Do you want to go back?"

Li Qingwu pursed his lips, and his hands hanging at his sides gradually clenched into fists to cheer himself up. The expression in his eyes also changed from hesitation at the beginning to determination.

"Well, I want to go back."

The matter should come to an end.

"Okay, I'll accompany you." Lin Wenyu patted Li Qingwu's head soothingly.

--------

When Lin Wenyu brought Li Qingwu back, the meeting hall seemed no different from before they left.

Only Li Yin, although there seemed no significant changes in his appearance, was in a very depressed state.

It no longer has the same glory as before.

"Qingwu."

Seeing Li Qingwu coming back, an elder hurriedly stood up and walked towards Li Qingwu with a look of concern.

The other elders were not willing to be left behind and rushed towards Li Qingwu.

A group of highly respected elders in the sect were fighting for eggs like ordinary grandpas and aunts, afraid of being late.

However, Li Qingwu was obviously not used to their enthusiasm and shrank behind Lin Wenyu.

Seeing this, Lin Wenyu also took a step forward and smiled to block the elders' concern for Li Qingwu's late arrival.

"Elders, let's first resolve the matter between Sect Leader Li and Madam Wang before discussing anything else."

One of the elders heard Lin Wenyu's words and snorted coldly, correcting him: "Li Yin is no longer the head of our Luoshu Sect."

Wu Wangliu also spoke at this time: "The matter of Li Yin will be taken over by Yuxutang for investigation. But regarding Wang Fengming... Li Qingwu, do you have any thoughts?"

Until today, Li Qingwu had only heard of the name Yuxutang.

Now that Wu Wangliu had suddenly called him out, Li Qingwu began to feel somewhat timid about the unknown and authoritative matters.

Lin Wenyu saw Li Qingwu's mood and gently placed her hand on her shoulder.

Li Qingwu took a deep breath, walked out from behind Lin Wenyu and came to her side.

Wang Siyin took a step forward, wanting to plead with Li Qingwu.

But he was trapped in place by an invisible spiritual force and could not move.

Wang Siyin tried to speak again, but found that he couldn't make a sound either.

Wang Siyin shifted his gaze and happened to meet the gaze of the woman behind Wu Wangliu.

There was still no emotion in those eyes until Wang Siyin looked at her.

She slowly raised a finger to her lips and made a "hush" gesture.

Wang Siyin was stunned, as if he understood something, and stopped moving.

Li Qingwu was completely unaware of the undercurrents surging in the meeting hall.

She just looked around at everyone in the meeting hall, her eyes passing over each person. When she passed over Li Yin, Li Qingwu paused.

Finally, his eyes fell on Wang Fengming.

After looking at each other for a moment, Li Qingwu lowered his eyelashes, tugged at the corner of his clothes, opened and closed his lips several times, and finally uttered a word.

"Can this matter be handed over to Master Wu to handle?"

Wu Wangliu was a little surprised by Li Qingwu's answer.

"Leave it to me? Of course I can.

But leave it to me and follow the rules."

Wu Wangliu's words were so blunt that even Li Qingwu could understand the meaning behind her words.

An elder was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Qingwu's choice and couldn't help but advise him.

"Qingwu, why don't you give it some more thought?"

Li Qingwu was at a loss after hearing the elder's admonition.

On the one hand, she wants to continue to stick to her choice, but on the other hand, she is afraid that her choice may be wrong.

Lin Wenyu put her hand on Li Qingwu's shoulder again to comfort him, and at the same time cast a look at the elder.

"Tang Master Wu should be asking for Li Qingwu's opinion, not yours."

The elder's face turned red when he was confronted by Lin Wenyu.

"I'm just giving Qingwu some advice as an elder."

elder?

Lin Wenyu sneered at him.

When Li Qingwu was in Luoshu Sect, if any of these people had really cared about her like an elder, things would not have developed to this point today.

But Lin Wenyu was too lazy to waste time on them.

She leaned over and lowered her voice to speak to Li Qingwu in front of her.
