Duan Zhengchun transmigrates to Yin Zhiping

"But in the process, I learned what you had been through in the past fifteen years, and I began to feel sorry for you. Then I went from feeling sorry for you to caring about you, and from caring about you to liking you."

"Whether it's you, Long'er, or Shuang'er, I'm sincere to each and every one of you. No matter which one I'm with, I'm wholeheartedly devoted to you."

"I would be heartbroken if I lost any one of you."

Duan Zhengchun stared intently at Li Mochou and said with utmost seriousness.

"Just go..."

I don't want to see you again...

Li Mochou shook her head and spoke slowly, her voice so low that even she could not hear it.

Seeing Li Mochou's dejected face, Duan Zhengchun said nothing more, nodded silently, and got up to walk outside.

He knew that no matter what he said at this moment, Li Mochou wouldn't listen.

But when she saw Duan Zhengchun actually get up and leave without looking back, Li Mochou felt as if her heart had been hollowed out. She reached out as if to say something, but couldn't utter a single word.

As Duan Zhengchun's figure disappeared outside the door, Li Mochou sat down helplessly on the ground, tears welling up in her eyes.

She never imagined that fifteen years later, she would care so much about another man.

When she left Jiangnan, she had no idea that she had fallen deeply in love with him.

It wasn't until they met again tonight that she finally understood that she couldn't live without him, even though he already had another woman by his side.

When Duan Zhengchun walked straight out of the inn, he found that Hong Lingbo had returned and was standing silently on the stone steps at the door.

"Take good care of her, and if anything happens, send a message to the place where we stayed last night."

Duan Zhengchun glanced at Hong Lingbo, gave her a deep reprimand, and then left the inn.

Hong Lingbo watched Duan Zhengchun's departing figure and nodded silently.

...

Afternoon the next day.

Outside the Tomb of the Living Dead, Xiaolongnu and Li Mochou stood facing each other, both expressionless, their eyes revealing a fighting spirit.

Last night, Duan Zhengchun's appearance aroused Li Mochou's jealousy, and she began to complain about why she wasn't the first person to meet Duan Zhengchun.

So today, he brought his apprentice Hong Lingbo to the Tomb of the Living Dead again, and had already injured Granny Sun, forcing Little Dragon Girl to show herself.

If Lu Wushuang hadn't intervened in time, Granny Sun would probably have died from Li Mochou's whisk.

"Junior sister, why have I never been able to beat you in anything since we were children? Now that I am no longer a member of the Ancient Tomb Sect, why do you still haunt me!"

"You stole the person I love?!"

Li Mochou looked coldly at Xiaolongnu and said in a deep voice.

Xiaolongnu remained expressionless and said calmly, "I never deliberately tried to compete with you for anything. It's just that you didn't seize every opportunity. You can't blame anyone else."

Li Mochou gritted her teeth and said, "If you are willing to leave Yin Zhiping, I can leave right now and I will not harm anyone here!"

Upon hearing Li Mochou's words, Xiaolongnu's expression changed slightly, but only for a moment, before she returned to her icy demeanor.

However, she now finally understood that Yin Zhiping and Li Mochou indeed had a close relationship.

She finally understood why Li Mochou had risked her life to snatch the silver hairpin from her hands.

After figuring all this out, Xiaolongnu gently shook her head and gave her own answer.

"He is a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect. Have you forgotten what Master said back then? Do you still remember how Grandmother Grandmaster died alone?!"

"As the leader of the Ancient Tomb Sect, how dare you have feelings for a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect? Are you planning to betray your master and destroy your ancestors?!"

Li Mochou looked furious and demanded an answer in a stern voice.

Xiaolongnu hesitated for a moment, then a smile suddenly flashed across her lips, and she said softly, "He is different from the other Quanzhen Sect disciples."

Seeing the fleeting smile on Xiaolongnu's face, Li Mochou suddenly froze. Then, the jealousy in her heart resurfaced. She flicked her whisk and said sternly, "Since you are so stubborn, then I will clean house for my master today!"

"Hand over the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, and I might spare your life!"

Little Dragon Girl shook her head and said in a deep voice, "If it were half an hour earlier, I would have given you the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra without hesitation, as long as you return that silver hairpin to me."

"But I've changed my mind. You injured Granny Sun, which has crossed my line!"

"I will not give you the person, and you will not get the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra either!"

Li Mochou snorted coldly and shouted, "Fine! Then today I'll send you all to the Western Paradise! Lingbo, kill those two!"

Xiaolongnu's words, "I will give you the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra without hesitation, as long as you return that silver hairpin to me," completely enraged her.

She never expected that Xiaolongnu would care so much about Yin Zhiping, and that she would be willing to hand over the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, which she had always wanted, for a silver hairpin!

As Li Mochou finished speaking, Hong Lingbo rushed towards Lu Wushuang and Granny Sun, who were standing not far away, as ordered.

"Shuang'er! Protect Granny Sun!"

Without turning her head, Xiaolongnu said a sentence and stared intently at Li Mochou's every move.

Granny Sun had been struck on the shoulder by Li Mochou's palm and was being supported by Lu Wushuang. When she saw Hong Lingbo rushing over, she quickly shielded Lu Wushuang behind her, preparing to take the brunt of Hong Lingbo's attack.

"Grandma, hide well!"

But Lu Wushuang gave a word of advice and then suddenly rushed towards Hong Lingbo!

Each of them held a sword and instantly clashed. Although the swords flashed as they exchanged blows, each held back their strength.

Since joining the Ancient Tomb Sect, Lu Wushuang has changed his weapon from twin swords to a longsword.

On the other side, Li Mochou also launched a fierce attack on Xiaolongnu. One used a whisk and the other used a golden bell rope. For a time, they were evenly matched and the situation was dangerous!

After this fierce battle lasted for almost the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a winner was finally decided!

Hong Lingbo clutched his left shoulder and staggered back more than ten steps before finally regaining his balance. His face was covered in sweat and he looked pale.

"Useless trash! What use are you to me?!"

Seeing her disciple lose to Xiaolongnu's disciple, Li Mochou's face turned ashen as she scolded him, feeling utterly humiliated.

You should know that he has been taking this disciple under his wing for many years, but Lu Wushuang has only been a disciple of the Ancient Tomb Sect for less than half a month!

"I never imagined your martial arts skills would improve so quickly, you brat! I underestimated you before!"

Li Mochou glanced coldly at Lu Wushuang and said in a deep voice.

What she didn't know was that although Lu Wushuang's swordsmanship was not as refined as Hong Lingbo's, she not only had the innate true energy infused by Duan Zhengchun, but also the Yi Jin Jing she had later practiced, making her power far beyond what it used to be.

However, Lu Wushuang frowned as she looked at Hong Lingbo, who was clutching her left shoulder, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

She didn't use her full strength just now, nor did she intend to injure Hong Lingbo, because she knew the relationship between her master, her elder brother, and Li Mochou, so she held back.

Hong Lingbo deliberately took a slap from her!

She was initially puzzled as to why Hong Lingbo did this, but she soon understood why, because Hong Lingbo's injury was exactly the same as Grandma Sun's—both had injured their left shoulders!

Hong Lingbo ignored her master's scolding and instead secretly glanced at the distant mountains and forests with anticipation, a hint of anxiety flashing in her eyes.

"Senior sister, let's turn back. Now that both my people and your people are injured, let's call it even."

"If you stop now and leave the silver hairpin, I can let you and your disciple leave safely."

Xiaolongnu looked calmly at Li Mochou and slowly opened her mouth.

"Don't even think about it! Do you know how much I hate your arrogant, worldly-wise attitude?!"

"You'll never get it back!"

Li Mochou roared angrily, suddenly took out the silver hairpin from her bosom, and threw it directly into the distant mountains and forests!

Upon seeing this, Xiaolongnu's expression changed instantly. She leaped into the air and reached out to grab the silver hairpin in mid-air.

"Master, be careful!"

However, at this moment, Li Mochou suddenly pursued closely, forcefully swinging her whisk and attacking Xiaolongnu directly in the back!

Lu Wushuang shouted, but it was too late to stop it!

Xiaolongnu noticed something amiss behind her, but her hand was about to grab the silver hairpin, so she didn't stop to dodge, seemingly determined to withstand Li Mochou's sneak attack!
