Oh my god, this is a bolt from the blue! A true heiress of metaphysics!

Shi Xiaxia felt the immense pressure from the sword net, and her expression darkened.

She knew that if she took this attack head-on, she would be severely injured.

Shi Xiaxia took out a "Swiftness Talisman", infused it with spiritual power to activate it, and then her body instantly disappeared from the spot.

Master Qingyun looked up and saw that Shi Xiaxia had already arrived at the door of the dark room.

The sword net failed to reach Shi Xiaxia, and instead attacked the small basement. The hard walls were scratched with deep sword marks, and the basement shook.

"Don't run!" Master Qingyun's expression changed, and he immediately gave chase.

We must not let Shi Xiaxia leave!

Master Qingyun chased after her into the courtyard with his long sword. As soon as he appeared, Shi Xiaxia's attack was upon him.

The courtyard was a bit larger, making it easier for the two to maneuver, and for a time they fought back and forth.

Although Shi Xiaxia's spiritual power was sealed after she came to this world and has not yet recovered, she can still fight against Master Qingyun without much trouble, though it's not exactly easy.

Before long, Master Qingyun was beaten into a disadvantageous position.

"What a clever scheme!"

Master Qingyun looked at Shi Xiaxia and spat out a mouthful of blood: "You were actually hiding your strength before!"

Shi Xiaxia did not answer, but instead formed a hand seal, and a huge spiritual power burst out from her body.

Master Qingyun's expression changed instantly, realizing that if the fight continued, his life might be in danger!

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, took out the talisman he had hidden away, injected spiritual power to activate it, and in the blink of an eye, Master Qingyun's figure had disappeared.

Shi Xiaxia stopped forming hand seals, raised her eyes and looked around, but did not find Master Qingyun's figure. However, his aura was still lingering in the courtyard and had not disappeared.

Just as Shi Xiaxia was about to search for him, several unfamiliar auras approached, rapidly drawing near the courtyard.

Shi Xiaxia's expression changed, thinking that Master Qingyun's helpers had arrived, and she no longer cared about continuing the pursuit.

She turned and left the courtyard, finding a secluded spot to hide. To avoid being discovered, she also stuck a talisman on herself to conceal her presence.

Then, Shi Xiaxia peeked out with one eye, looking at the people who had arrived.

"grandfather!"

The youngest of the metaphysicians shouted to one of them, "A battle has just broken out here! Judging from the intensity, it seems that Qingyun and the other metaphysicians were fighting!"

The metaphysical master, whom the young people call "Grandpa," stroked his small mustache.

He turned his head, his gaze sweeping across the courtyard, and then said, "Qingyun has already run away! We're too late."

"How abominable!"

The others looked furious: "We were finally about to catch Qingyun, but the others alerted him! It won't be easy to find him again!"

"That person who can fight Qingyun to a standstill is no ordinary person!"

The young man's grandfather said in a puzzled voice, "Besides us old folks, I can't think of anyone else who would dare to fight Qingyun!"

“Yes!” others chimed in.

"Could Grandpa... possibly be a metaphysical master who never appeared in the world before?"

The young man asked, "What did Qingyun do to offend him that led to him coming to seek revenge?"

The young man's grandfather and several other metaphysical masters exchanged glances, all wanting to say it was impossible.

But if it's truly impossible, then the current situation is inexplicable.

"maybe."

The young man's grandfather casually replied, then said to the others, "Qingyun, that traitor, has harmed so many people and is extremely cunning. I'm not surprised that he wasn't caught this time."

But going back like this would only make us a laughingstock. Let's investigate here; perhaps we can find some trace of him."

"Okay!" the others agreed and then got busy with their own tasks.

Shi Xiaxia watched them all go inside, and then quietly left the spot.

......

After a brief two-day break, filming resumed.

Shen Yu, who plays the murderer, was so busy a few days ago that he didn't even have time to rest because he had to reshoot the missing scenes.

Although the Shen family's reputation is now ruined, Shen Yu's reputation is still relatively good, and as a top star, he still has fans within the production crew.

They are also very popular when they are not busy.

However, apart from Shen Yu and Murong Quan's fans, most other people were just watching the show with amusement.

They were notorious rivals, and even the director and his team were looking forward to seeing a good show.

To their surprise, Murong Quan not only did not oppose Shen Yu, but the two barely exchanged a few words, except when they were acting together.

"Something's wrong!"

Looking at Murong Quan talking to Su Yueke, the director sighed, "They're so quiet! I was thinking of filming some behind-the-scenes footage of them arguing!"

"That's right!"

The assistant director, munching on sunflower seeds, also looked puzzled: "And he's been acting strange lately! He keeps hanging around Shi Xiaxia's assistant."

"Huh?! I say! Murong Quan wouldn't have taken a liking to that assistant, would he?"

"It's really possible!"

The director slapped his thigh, then said regretfully, "But we can't film this! Sigh!"

The director couldn't help but feel heartbroken; that was free publicity!

It's a pity we can't take pictures!

The two sighed as they watched Murong Quan smiling and talking to Su Yueke.

"Shi Xiaxia said you haven't started rehabilitation training yet. Do you need me to help you after filming is over?" Murong Quan smiled at Su Yueke, his voice full of tenderness.

Su Yue looked at him with disgust and couldn't help but say, "Can't you be normal for once?"

"I'm perfectly normal!"

Murong Quan moved even closer to Su Yueke and whispered, "Besides, I'm just trying to help you!"

"I don't need your help!" Su Yueke's face flushed red, and she immediately maneuvered her wheelchair backward a little, but was held down by Murong Quan.

"Why are you being so formal?" Murong Quan pulled hard, and Su Yueke's wheelchair was brought in front of him.

"Sigh, to be honest, I still feel that Shen Yu is no good. He was no good before, and he's even worse now!"

Murong Quan tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of his wheelchair, but his gaze fell on Shen Yu, who was resting, and then he gave him a mocking smile.

Shen Yu noticed this, immediately turned away angrily, and refused to look at them anymore.

"Before, Shen Yu was a complete siscon, wishing he could keep Shen Qingqing tied to his belt. If I hadn't confirmed they were siblings, I would have mistaken them for siblings!"

Murong Quan tapped away slowly, saying in a low voice, "Now that he knows Shen Qingqing isn't his biological sister, he still protects her and treats her even better than he treats Shi Xiaxia. I really can't help but overthink it."

You don't know what happened at the "Film and Television Awards." If you were there and saw Shen Yu blindly defending Shen Qingqing, you'd probably vomit from disgust!
