"Who do you think you are? Huh? You're not worthy to call me that!"

Shi Jianren felt wronged and angry. Only the leader could call him that; no one else could!

However, Yu Ling didn't understand Shi Jianren's thought process. Ugly thing... how could such a term be taken so seriously?

Is this normal?

Ugly as a person, yet so arrogant, daring to ask what Chi Yue is? Tsk tsk tsk, you're finished. I wouldn't even dare to talk to Chi Yue like that.

Shih Chien-jen, you're very brave.

But seeing the two facing off, Yu Ling couldn't help herself and blurted out:

"...It's mine."

Chi Yue's half-closed eyes swept over sharply.

Yu Ling covered her mouth, avoiding his gaze. Ouch—why did she blurt it out again? She quickly jumped up from the recliner, went to Chi Yue's side, and snuggled close, pleading for forgiveness.

"It was a slip of the tongue, Master. Please don't be angry, Master!!!"

What...it's his stuff...How can you say such a thing in front of outsiders? How shameless!

Yu Ling pleased Chi Yue once again, and his expression softened, his cold face beginning to warm up.

Chi Yue said in a voice barely above a whisper, "Okay."

Yu Ling didn't say much, and pulled Chi Yue towards the main house, intending to explain things to them privately. As they walked, she said this to Shi Jianren, who was clutching his stomach and groaning:

"Jianren, I have some things to take care of here. You can stay here by yourself!"

But when Shi Jianren saw Yu Ling's extremely polite words, he was left with only confusion. Why did it feel like the leader had become a different person?

He relentlessly chased after her for a few steps. This action infuriated Yu Ling, who nearly crumpled Chi Yue's sleeve.

Turning around, Yu Ling immediately launched into a tirade:

"Get lost, you ugly thing!"

After cursing, he turned around and dragged the person away.

"?! Okay!!!"

That's the perfect nickname!

This is what a true leader should be like!

Seeing that Yu Ling clearly had no intention of letting him serve her personally, Shi Jianren could only turn his back and return to his room dejectedly.

No, he can't be so discouraged. He needs to recharge and continue to help the leader!

Who exactly is the person the cult leader calls "Master"?

Only then did Shi Jianren belatedly realize what was happening.

This is the territory of the Shadow Pavilion. Apart from Lord Sun, the deputy pavilion master, who else could run rampant in the Sun residence? There is only one candidate, and that is, the pavilion master of the Shadow Pavilion himself!

Oh no, did he just talk too big for his britches? He's going to get a beating this time, boohoo...

No, that's not right. The cult leader used to spoil me so much, he would definitely save me!

Shi Jianren threw off the covers, lay down, and fell asleep immediately. With the cult leader by his side, who needed to use their brain? Just sleep!

He had been hiding ever since he left the Martial Arts Alliance, never getting a good night's sleep or a full meal. If he hadn't been so excited to see the leader, he would have collapsed long ago.

Yu Ling had no idea that this cheap subordinate, who had been forced into her hands, was actually thinking the same thing as her, hoping to rely on his "master" to make a mess of things.

He was sitting across from Chi Yue at the table, drinking hot tea and chatting idly.

"This man was one of my former subordinates, named Shi Jianren. He couldn't find me at the time and had been kidnapped by bad guys..."

Having finally escaped, when she begged Lord Sun to take her in, she happened to see me and shamelessly insisted on following me.

This part is still somewhat consistent with the facts, but then Yu Ling starts to say increasingly outrageous things.

"He actually... blah blah blah... I'm not that close to him. Shi Jianren, you can probably tell from the way he talks. He might have some mental issues. He talks nonsense and it's all very strange."

"Ugh! He's shameful, useless, and intellectually deficient. If it weren't for the fact that he worked for me for so many years, I would have slit his throat long ago."

It's every leader's duty to pin all the blame on his underlings. Yu-ling is praying for you. Jian-ren, keep going!

Oh, by the way, if I were him, this clause would be invalid!

Yu Ling rambled on and on, but Chi Yue didn't believe a single word she said. However, he kept nodding in agreement and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"...What's wrong, Master? Don't you believe me?"

Seeing Yu Ling looking at her with clear eyes, Chi Yue sighed again. This person's appearance was truly deceptive. Beneath the innocent and childlike expression, she was actually a cunning and wicked person.

He answered with a smile:

"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that I find this person's name really funny. Shi Jianren, is he a scoundrel? Ha..."

Are they even starting to be perfunctory when choosing a name? This won't do. Even if you're lying, you should at least make it believable.

(Shih Chien-jen: This is my real name! My real name!)

As a result, the credibility of Yu Ling's words dropped significantly in Chi Yue's mind.

"Hey! You're right! I didn't even realize it until you mentioned it, Master. His name really doesn't sound good." Yu Ling chimed in with an air of seriousness, and then began showering him with all sorts of flattery and praise.

Keep going! Keep licking until the very end, and you'll have everything!

Leaving aside how Yu Ling is using her imagination to create stories, at the same time, Fang Yuan, the protagonist whom Yu Ling is always wary of, has long since faded out of the martial arts world and returned to work at the Six Doors.

His latest mission is to hunt down a vicious fugitive.

It was the dead of night. He had followed the clues alone all the way to Keluo City. Just as he revealed his identity and entered the city gate, he suddenly saw a figure sneaking past in front of him. He immediately stopped and thought:
