Shi Lan nodded to assure him there would be no problem. The martial arts alliance leader then turned his gaze to Shi Xingyi, who nodded in agreement.

Seeing that they had all agreed, the martial arts alliance leader nodded in satisfaction: "Alright, alright, let's not waste any more time and set off today."

The deafening voice replied with another "okay".

Shi Lan's gaze remained fixed on Shi Xingyi. His hands were still numb from the shock, but the other man was already leisurely drinking tea.

…

"Young Master, are we really going to join them in attacking the Shadow Cult?" Before the Shadow Cult was established, most of the people gathered there were martial arts practitioners of average talent.

Although there was some chaos, most of them were righteous people.

Although I don't know why things have changed in recent years, they're not as heinous as they say, are they?

Moreover, Linjing Pavilion has always had some contact with the Shadow Cult and has a relatively friendly relationship. But now it is going to join forces with this group of martial arts people to attack the Shadow Cult. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?

Shi Xingyi did not speak. Since he took over Linjing Pavilion, he had no contact with the Shadow Sect. However, his father always remembered the friendship between them.

"Let's take it one step at a time," Shi Xingyi said after a long silence.

The servant glanced at his brother, and seeing that he had no intention of speaking, he remained silent.

…

Shi Xingyi returned to the room that Wu Linmeng had arranged for him. Just as he was changing his clothes and preparing to take a bath, a woman appeared in front of him.

"Who are you?" The other person was able to conceal their aura and martial arts skills and appear in front of him like this. This person's internal strength was particularly powerful and was obviously above his own.

Wan Ge slowly walked towards the person, reached out his hand to his face, and with a slight movement, a human skin mask landed directly in his hand. Looking at the other person's exquisite and beautiful face, Wan Ge smiled. He had said that his little villain was so good-looking in every world, so why was he so ordinary in this world? It really was a disguise technique.

Shi Xingyi took a step back and suddenly realized that he was still shirtless, with only his lower body still wearing pants.

Although most people in the martial arts world adhere to the principle of not being bothered by trivial matters, Shi Xingyi still felt uncomfortable at this moment because his upper body had been seen. He frowned slightly.

But the other person spoke again: "I knew it. The man I've set my sights on is a stunningly beautiful woman."

"Insolence." Shi Xingyi frowned, his face instantly darkening.

Wan Ge reached out and hugged his waist, her breath brushing against his neck, and softly said, "Why is Xingyi so fierce? You promised to marry me when we were little, so it's not too much for me to hug and touch you now, is it?"

Hearing what the other person said, Shi Xingyi was slightly taken aback and looked puzzled: "Who exactly are you? Why are you calling me that? And when did I agree to marry you?"

Wan Ge pinched his delicate face and removed the veil from her own face.

Looking at the woman in front of him, Shi Xingyi felt inexplicably familiar. Just now, he only felt that the woman's aura was inexplicably familiar, but now he really felt that this woman was very familiar, including her face.
