Oops, the princess is surrounded by the male protagonists

"What nonsense are you spouting, woman!"

Xiao Yi sternly stopped Bai Yue, but a hint of panic appeared on his face. In the moment of distraction, Ruo Xu had already stepped in front of Bai Yue.

"Excuse me, junior brother!"

When he heard Bai Yue call out Ruomiao,

Ruoxu moved with lightning speed, grabbing Xiao Yi's collar and tearing it open to both sides!

The expected flat chest of the man did not appear; instead, there were layers of tightly wrapped plain white ribbons.

"You are a woman, are you really Ruomiao?"

Ruoxu raised his head, looked at the person in front of him, and asked in a trembling voice.

"Sister..."

At this moment, Xiao Yi's voice had become a woman's voice. She raised her hand and gently peeled off a human skin mask that was as thin as a cicada's wing and exquisitely crafted.

"You woman... you really have a sharp eye."

Ruomiao complained to Baiyue, but the next moment, she was tightly embraced.

"Ruomiao... Thank goodness... Thank goodness! Thank goodness you're alright! Thank goodness you're alright..."

Ruoxu's voice choked with sobs, and tears uncontrollably dripped onto Ruomiao's neck.

The other person felt a lump in their throat and hugged Ruoxu back tightly, burying their face deep in Ruoxu's arms.

"Sister..."

Ruomiao called out in a muffled voice, her tone heavily nasal.

"Aren't you angry that I faked my death to deceive you? You just said..."

"Silly girl, as long as you're still alive and well, nothing else matters! You don't know how I felt after learning of your death..."

Ruoxu started crying again as she spoke, while Ruomiao quickly looked up, wiping away her tears as she choked out her own words.

"Senior sister, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you. I've missed you a lot these past few days, I really miss you!"

"Well, gentlemen...why don't we sort out the current situation first, and then continue our reminiscing?"

Bai Yue looked at the two fellow disciples crying their hearts out before her. After a while, she finally coughed lightly to make her presence known.

Upon hearing this, Ruomiao immediately turned her head and glared at Bai Yue with her reddened eyes. She let out a soft snort, clearly displeased with Bai Yue's interruption and not intending to pay any attention to her.

"Your Holiness, I am so sorry, it was my fault... I was too out of line."

Ruoxu quickly released Ruomiao, wiped the tears from her cheeks with the back of her hand, turned to Baiyue, and looked apologetic.

Seeing that her senior sister was so polite to Bai Yue, even a little cautious, Ruomiao felt even more displeased and retorted.

"Senior sister, why do you listen to this woman so much?!"

"Ruomiao, don't be silly! This is the Goddess, a deity as great as the Queen Bee!"

Ruoxu quickly stopped Ruomiao's disrespectful remarks, but this only made the other party more dissatisfied.

"A deity as great as the queen bee?"

Ruomiao snorted coldly, then looked at Bai Yue and asked sarcastically.

"Goddess, since you are so capable, why don't you guess what my background is?"

Bai Yue wasn't annoyed by Ruo Miao's sarcastic attitude. Instead, she looked at her with interest, her mind quickly connecting various known fragments of information before she finally spoke with certainty.

"I guess you're from the Demonic Cult."

As soon as Bai Yue finished speaking, Ruomiao's pupils contracted slightly, but she quickly sneered and continued to provoke her.

"Hmph, at least you have some insight. Keep going, I want to see how much you can guess!"

However, Bai Yue stopped responding to her words and instead turned to Ruoxu, giving him instructions with a solemn expression.

"Ruoxu, you are the one to ask the questions that follow."

"You are shameless!"

When Ruomiao saw that Bai Yue had actually sent Ruoxu to ask her, she immediately glared at him fiercely.

"Silly child, it seems you still don't understand interrogation techniques!"

Bai Yue knew that Ruomiao wouldn't tell the truth because of her hostility towards her, so having Ruoxu ask was definitely the quickest way.

"Yes!"

When Ruoxu heard Ruomiao admit that she was a member of the Demonic Sect, his heart sank. But when he thought that he was also an undercover agent sent by the Voodoo Cult to Zixiao Temple, he couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly.

"Senior sister, please don't be angry, I...I..."

Ruomiao mistook Ruoxu's smile for anger, and hurriedly apologized, but she stammered for a long time without being able to explain herself.

"Ruomiao, since you're impersonating Xiao Yi, is he also a member of the Demonic Sect? Who exactly is he? Why did he infiltrate the Zixiao Temple and become my junior brother?"

After waiting a moment, all that responded to Ruomiao was Ruomiao's even paler face.

"Senior sister, I really can't say this. Xiao Yi's identity... is too special. He... he..."

Bai Yue, who had been observing Ruomiao's reaction, finally confirmed her suspicions after seeing the fear in Ruomiao's eyes.

"So, Xiao Yi is actually your Demonic Sect's elusive leader, Hua Yixiao, right?"

"how is this possible?"

"how do you know?"

Ruoxu and Ruomiao spoke almost simultaneously, but the latter realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly covered her mouth.

"So Xiao Yi really is Hua Yixiao in disguise? But shouldn't that Demonic Sect leader be very old? How could he possibly impersonate someone like that..."

Before Ruoxu could utter the words "young man," a woman's soft and melodious voice suddenly called out from outside the courtyard.

"Yi Lang, are you there? Someone's come to see you!"

"Oh no! It's Yang Yumo!"

Ruomiao's face turned ashen, as if she had swallowed a fly. Then she looked at Ruoxu and urged him softly.

"Senior sister! You all need to leave right now! We can talk about this later, but we absolutely cannot let her see you here!"

After saying this, she turned around and rushed into the house, closing the door behind her. It seemed she was about to immediately revert to her "Xiao Yi" persona.

"Get on the roof!"

Bai Yue made a quick decision and whispered instructions to Ruo Xu. Ruo Xu put his arm around Bai Yue's waist, lightly touched the ground with his toes, and leaped onto the roof, using the shadow of the eaves to hide his figure.

Just as they hid, the courtyard gate creaked open, and a graceful figure strode in.

On the rooftop, Ruoxu could see the woman's face clearly by the moonlight, and he almost couldn't help but gasp out!

Because that was clearly Yang Yumo's face, only without any signs of aging, making her look like a girl in her early twenties!

"Shh!"

As expected, Bai Yue immediately covered Ruoxu's mouth tightly with one hand and made a "shush" gesture with the other, indicating that she absolutely, absolutely must not make any sound.

Ruoxu nodded, and Baiyue released her hand. Both of them dared not breathe and stared intently at what was below.

The completely transformed "Yang Yumo" walked to the door, but instead of barging in, she raised her hand and gently knocked on the door with her knuckles.

"Yi Lang? It's me, Yu Mo. Are you resting? May I come in?"

After a moment of silence, a young boy's voice, tinged with impatience at being disturbed, finally broke through the silence.

"Master, what urgent matter is it? Perhaps we can discuss it tomorrow. I am already preparing to rest."
