"It's nothing," Qiyue said, raising her hand with an innocent look on her face.

Nalan Qing pursed her lips and looked at her: "It better really be nothing! And who are you?"

"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed. I have come to save your life." Qi Yue said with an inscrutable expression, counting on her fingers, "Last night I observed the stars and saw that we are destined to meet, so I have come to rescue you!"

"Really?" Nalan Qing raised an eyebrow, looking suspicious.

Qi Yue clicked her tongue, grabbed Nalan Qing's hand, widened her eyes, and said very sincerely.

"Really? Listen to me, I've divined that you're destined for a fatal calamity, which is related to the person closest to you. This person may look respectable, but he's actually a reincarnation of a demon. He's eloquent and adept at deceiving people. Moreover, his love luck is currently in motion, and he will encounter a woman in red who will save him from danger!"

"If you fall in love with someone, you will lose everything because of him, and in the end, you will die without a proper burial place and meet a tragic end!"

"Alas, how pitiful and lamentable..."

July sighed deeply and shook her head, feeling extremely distressed.

Nalan Qing's head was buzzing: "Am I going to die?"

"Mmm." Qiyue pursed her lips, nodded, and leaned closer to add.

"And he died a horrible death!"

"Who? I'll go kill him right now!" Nalan Qing said, his voice filled with murderous intent.

Qiyue pressed down on her hand: "I'll say one word."

Nalan Qing: "What word?"

“Ze”.

Nalan Qing's pupils contracted, her heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously thought of someone—Ze? Wasn't that her senior brother?

She felt a sudden tightness throughout her body: "What Ze?"

A mischievous glint appeared in Qi Yue's eyes: "Ming Zhongze, if you don't believe me, I'll tell you something else. You once had a relationship with him..."

As she spoke, she paused, her eyes fixed on a certain spot beneath Nalan Qing.

Nalan Qing immediately understood what was happening, her face flushed red, whether from embarrassment or anger, she didn't know, she raised her hand to slap Qi Yue's face, but Qi Yue dodged.

"That's all I have to say. Miss Nalan, take care of yourself. If you need anything, you can come to Tongfu Inn to find me."

After saying that, she left.

Nalan Qing was left alone on the spot, rubbing the soft flesh that she had pinched, feeling restless and dazed.

It wasn't until they returned to the Xiaoyao Sect's headquarters and saw Li Ze in his flowing white robes that they came to their senses.

"Senior brother, have you told anyone else about what happened that day?"

Li Ze was taken aback: "What is it?"

Nalan Qing frowned, feeling somewhat displeased. Then, thinking of what Qi Yue had said—that a reincarnated Chang Gui was a cultivator—how could she not know what a Chang Gui was?

That is someone who is full of lies, selfish, and only wants to harm their own people for personal gain.

She thought back to that experience when Li Ze was poisoned by a fox demon. The poison was difficult to cure, and the only way to cure it was to have sex with someone. Although she loved him, she couldn't just give herself to him without knowing the truth.

She had originally planned to find a courtesan, but Li Ze refused, citing his reputation. She thought he could tolerate it, but unexpectedly, he forced himself on her in the end…

Of course she was upset, but later, Li Ze doted on her and said he liked her. When they reached the Nascent Soul stage, he publicly announced their relationship. But now he doesn't even remember it?

Nalan Qing's heart turned cold instantly: "Senior brother is really forgetful, but I remember that you were tormented by the bewitching poison that day and you were so pitiful..."

"Shh!" Li Ze panicked and quickly interrupted Nalan Qing, pulling her into a room. His words were a mix of coaxing and scolding.

“Junior Sister Nalan, be careful with your words. Of course I remember what happened that day. I am grateful to you for what happened that day and will never forget it. Are you afraid that I am lying to you? Don’t worry, I said that as long as I break through to the Nascent Soul stage, I will announce our relationship to the public. I will never break my promise.”

"Grateful?" Nalan Qing frowned. If she had heard these words before, she would have been overjoyed. But ever since she heard what that female cultivator said, she always felt very uncomfortable hearing these words.

Looking at Li Ze again, he had a faint, gentle smile on his lips, but his eyes held an air of superiority, as if he should thank me soon: "Yes, I will never forget the kindness my junior sister showed me that day."

"Senior Brother, are you mistaken? That day was not my own choice. However, I have indeed done you a favor. You should thank me for not killing you that day, and for not exposing your hypocritical mask to anyone now." Nalan Qing said sarcastically, looking at Li Ze's arrogant and two-faced demeanor.

Li Ze frowned: "What do you mean? What else do you want me to do?"

"???" Nalan Qing was stunned, and was about to say something.

Li Ze shook off her hand, walked to the door, and said coldly, "Junior sister, I didn't know you were someone who took advantage of kindness. I've never even met you before. Fine, my promise to you will not change. You should calm down."

Nalan Qing opened her eyes wide, and after a long while, she burst out laughing.

"Hehehe, not only have you never known me, but I've never known you either, senior brother~".

A flash of disgust crossed her eyes.

No wonder, since that day, he had been so tolerant and doting towards her; she thought her deep affection had finally paid off, but little did she know…

That's absolutely disgusting.

Meanwhile, Qiyue, who had returned, sat on the windowsill of the inn, looking at something in a certain direction.

She believed that Nalan Qing would come to find her soon. Even the best feelings can't withstand provocation. Besides, Nalan Qing had never received a direct response from Li Ze. A formal title was a very important thing.

I just don't know when my senior brothers and sisters will return.

As Qiyue was thinking, a figure appeared in her line of sight; it was Nalan Qing.

Nalan Qing also noticed Qi Yue, and went straight into Tongfu Inn to stand in front of her.
