This was the scene Jiang Biehe saw when he arrived.

Fan Ning and Ling You stood together calmly and talked about something. There were obviously empty seats around them, but other cultivators would rather squeeze in than get close.

Jiang Biehe had some doubts, but no one stopped her, so she walked to Fan Ning smoothly.

Fan Ning greeted with a smile.

Jiang Biehe nodded and explained the follow-up of the previous incident. "The elder in charge of the trial in Yueli Sect has already escorted the person away. The incident has a serious impact, and the final judgment will most likely be made together with several major sects."

"And..." She paused, as if she didn't know where to begin, her tone hesitant, "The junior sister who protected my senior brother... after exhausting all her spiritual energy, she asked to leave."

She was originally a victim, and after the investigation was complete, the sect would not restrict her stay or departure, but she left without even taking any compensation... She must have been completely heartbroken.

“Is it really worth it to give everything for a predetermined outcome?”

The two of them looked over at the same time.

Jiang Biehe frowned and seemed to be just sighing casually, but only Fan Ning, who was looking at her, could see clearly that she was not recalling anything when she said this.

"How can we know if the result can be changed if we don't try?" Fan Ning chuckled. She didn't dwell on the sentence and took the initiative to change the subject. "Senior Sister, are you going to participate in this competition too?"

Jiang Biehe nodded and explained, "The cultivation sealed in you isn't completely secure. I have to come along to prevent any dire situations."

Ling You: "...I heard the rewards for this competition are exceptionally generous?"

Jiang Biehe glanced at him calmly and said, "What does that have to do with me? Are you going to let a medicine cultivator with no fighting power fight against them?"

Ling You: "Senior Sister, your purpose is really clear..."

From the beginning to the end, her purpose was clear to the point of being too clear. It was as if she couldn't let go of Fan Ning at all. Sometimes she was even more attentive than him, her legitimate future partner.

This isn't right...?

He looked at Fan Ning, who had already noticed something.

Fan Ning signaled with her eyes, her face still calm, "Thank you very much for your kind care, Senior Sister."

"I'm really looking forward to this sect competition."

-

The sect competition has always been held in the Water Moon Illusion, which is a secret realm that has been explored by all the sects. Places that are too risky are always sealed, and even the scenes inside can be reproduced using a water mirror.

The environment is safe, but people are in danger.

Some disciples standing within the area of ​​the Hehuan Sect felt a sharp pain in their teeth when they saw the shadows of Fan Ning and Ling You. They avoided them very quickly, and some even grabbed the hoods on their heads tightly, refusing to even glance at them.

The monks from other sects who knew some of the inside story couldn't help laughing. The Hehuan Sect had been high-profile for a long time, and it was rare for it to be low-key. Some monks who were often ridiculed on a daily basis became excited.

"Isn't this our suave Mr. Lu? Why is he unwilling to see anyone now? Could it be true, as the rumors say, that his alluring face has been ruined?"

Lu Li sneered, not showing weakness even when his sore spot was touched. "Don't listen to gossip. Even if I have suffered a small loss, I am still a hundred times better than a villain like you who only dares to play tricks behind the scenes!"

The bright red hairband floated out with the wind. Lu Li, who had calmed down after the real pressure, smiled contemptuously, and his eyes shifted slightly when he looked at the opposite side.

"Do you really think anyone can let me suffer? Those two are not simple people. Do you think you won't fall into trouble if you meet them?"

"How is that possible!" The old hatred surged in his heart. The cultivator, who had long been fed up with Lu Li's arrogant attitude, was furious and retorted with his neck stiff, "It's just the reputation of a hall. I heard that Fan Ning is a useless person whose cultivation is hindered..."

It was quiet all around.

The monk, realizing something, lowered his voice more and more, and mumbled something to try to find a reason to turn the matter over, but before he could do so, his collar was lifted up by a slender hand.

"I seem to have heard some words that shouldn't appear here?" Ling You's expression was indifferent, there was no anger in his eyes, but his hands did not give in at all.

The momentum was astonishing. Lu Li, who had experienced his fists before, avoided him consciously, and his eyes covered by the hood could not hide his gloating.

The elders of the sect, who had long been attracted by the sound, looked over.

The Yueli Sect's headmaster was clearly accustomed to the current situation. After a brief reflection, he trusted Ling You's rationality. He coughed lightly and reminded him, "Those participating in the competition need to enter the venue in a timely manner within the limited time. Also, under normal circumstances, you must not take the lives of others."

Knowing that this was a reminder from the sect leader, Ling You looked at the two trembling monks and did not take any extreme measures. Instead, he grabbed the collar of the monks and threw them in from the back entrance.

Then, he walked back towards Fan Ning's position.

Fan Ning was studying the gate. She stood there motionless, but in her heart she had already begun to urge the system.

The system was helpless: [I really can't do this behind the scenes! This function is not within my rules!]

Fan Ning also had a good reason: [You're changing the rules if it's not within the rules. Isn't the system supposed to serve the host? Since it's bound to me, it should at least be responsible for me, right?]

【You should also think carefully about whether you have tried your best. 】

system:【……】

The system just feels tired: [Dear, the system is not responsible for your love. ]

It's really impossible to let the system manipulate the two of them to land in the same place! ! The young Dragon Aotian system that I had previously developed couldn't do that either.

[Is there nothing we can do once we touch upon the rules of the plane?] Fan Ning's expression suddenly grew calm, as if the urging just now had never existed.

She looked at Ling You who was standing beside her waiting, counted the number of people present, and her face showed a relaxed look.

"I will find you," she smiled and reassured Ling You before he could speak.

Ling You was stunned for a moment, then a smile slowly appeared on his lips, "It's not necessarily that you found me first."

"Where is my senior sister?" Fan Ning looked again at Jiang Biehe, whose expression had not changed at the beginning.

Jiang Biehe nodded, no longer being modest at this point, "I can get to you."

In one sentence, Ling You, who had been shy just now, suddenly felt inferior.

But it was obviously too late to say anything.

Time passed slowly, and most of the monks around had left. Seeing this, Ling You could only suppress the thoughts in his heart and look at Fan Ning intently.

"See you inside," Fan Ning smiled slightly and deliberately added, "Don't get eliminated by others first."

"How can I be so incompetent..."

Ling You was helpless as he watched her figure slowly disappear in front of him, and followed her closely.
