Murong Yan's gaze, which seemed to look at them as if they were idiots, made Feng Yi and the other two so angry that their faces turned ashen and extremely ugly.

"Why didn't you remind us when we entered the secret realm!" Su Wanqing asked angrily, unable to contain her anger.

"I thought you knew," Murong Yan said innocently, tapping his palm lightly with his folding fan.

Su Wanqing: "!!!"

"Seeing the three of you in such a hurry, I mistakenly thought you were eager to cultivate and planned to use the monsters at the entrance to improve your combat experience."

Su Wanqing: "!!!"

Even though Meng Yunjin was good at pretending, she couldn't help but change her expression at this moment.

Even the proud Feng Yi was angered by Murong Yan's words and gripped his natal spirit sword tightly.

If you look closely, you can see that his hand holding the sword is trembling slightly... which shows just how angry he is.

Seeing this, out of sight of the three people opposite, Qin Wan silently gave Murong Yan a thumbs up.

When it comes to being infuriating, you're truly exceptional.

To Qin Wan's surprise, Murong Yan accepted her praise with a smile and replied, "You flatter me."

Qin Wan: "..."

really……

The next second...

The other side exploded...

"This is outrageous!"

Su Wanqing's personality is like a firecracker, easily ignited.

Although they didn't hear what Qin Wan and Murong Yan said, their reactions and expressions clearly indicated that it wasn't anything good; they were probably mocking them.

Thinking of this, Su Wanqing, who was always pampered and coaxed, could not stand this insult.

Without another word, he shouted a rebuke and drew his sword to attack Qin Wan.

Yes, you read that right. Su Wanqing's target was Qin Wan, not Murong Yan.

Qin Wan: "..." This woman is somewhat of a bully who preys on the weak and treats people differently.

Fortunately, Murong Yan still had some conscience and remembered that she was born weak and had no cultivation.

When Murong Yan saw Su Wanqing attacking her, she even used her folding fan to help her block the attack.

"As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor. It was clearly True Lord Feng Yi who led the two young ladies into the secret realm."

"Why is this Miss Su so quick to shift the blame and bully my junior sister without even asking what happened?" Murong Yan has been unable to stop his sharp tongue ever since he started using it.

"Could it be that Miss Su is the kind of person who bullies the weak and fears the strong?"

"Knowing that True Monarch Fengyi's cultivation level was too high for him to defeat, and also knowing that my junior sister had no cultivation, he deliberately bullied my junior sister?"

Su Wanqing trembled slightly with anger: "!!!"

This man!

Originally, Su Wanqing thought that she would not cause trouble for Murong Yan because of his handsome appearance.

However, Murong Yan's words were too excessive and aggressive towards her, which made it impossible for the pampered Holy Maiden to tolerate.

"If you insist on courting death, then don't blame this holy maiden for being ruthless!"

Su Wanqing gave a cold rebuke, then gathered her spiritual power again and raised her sword to attack Murong Yan...

Then……

She had just leaped forward...

In just a second...

"Bang!"

"ah!"

"Clang!"

The sounds of intense spiritual energy clashing, the woman's screams, and the crashing of heavy objects were all mixed together in a chaotic cacophony...

Seeing Su Wanqing being bullied by Murong Yan right in front of him, Feng Yi felt as if his dignity was being trampled underfoot.

Since he discovered his mutated lightning spiritual root, Murong Yan is the first person in nearly a hundred years to dare to be so presumptuous and disregard him!

Feng Yi narrowed his phoenix eyes and coldly rebuked, "You're courting death!"

Having said that, Feng Yi raised his sword and slashed down at Murong Yan...

A second passed...

Three seconds have passed...

Ten seconds have passed...

A deathly silence fell over the surroundings...

For some reason, Feng Yi's all-out attack remained stationary in front of Murong Yan, and then... it stopped moving.

That powerful, all-out attack seemed to be frozen in mid-air, unable to advance even an inch further.

Feng Yi's pupils contracted, and his gaze towards Murong Yan changed from contempt to intense wariness and scrutiny.

Who exactly are you?

"Your cultivation level far surpasses Qin Ge's, so why would you become his disciple?"

"What is your purpose in infiltrating the Tianyuan Sect while concealing your identity?"

After asking three sharp questions, Feng Yi seemed to have thought of something, and his dangerous gaze swept towards Qin Wan.

"Qin Wan, how dare you collude with outsiders to harm the Tianyuan Sect."

Qin Wan: "???" There's probably something wrong with your head.

"True Lord, to be honest, I really don't understand what you're saying, and I even feel a little confused," Qin Wan said, looking at Feng Yi expressionlessly and blankly.

"I will find evidence of your betrayal of the sect," Feng Yi said coldly, his gaze towards Qin Wan even containing a hint of killing intent.

"Oh," Qin Wan replied expressionlessly.

Seeing the hostility between Feng Yi and Qin Wan, a faint hint of joy flashed in Meng Yunjin's eyes.

But seeing Qin Wan's unusual calm and composure, Meng Yunjin couldn't help but feel a sense of foreboding.

Qin Wan's reaction was very strange...

Knowing that Murong Yan was "not easy to bully," Feng Yi didn't linger in the fight. He grabbed Meng Yunjin and Su Wanqing beside him and flew away.

Watching the three figures disappear, Murong Yan looked at Qin Wan with pity in his eyes.

"I'm sorry you've suffered all these years."

"It's alright," Qin Wan said casually.

Actually, when she first arrived, the one who truly suffered was the original owner of this body.

But she wasn't the original owner of this body, so it's uncertain whether the original owner felt wronged or enjoyed it because of her "love" for Feng Yi. It's hard to say.

Anyway, she's not wronged.

Seeing Qin Wan's feigned "strong" demeanor, Murong Yan sighed softly, a pang of heartache rising in his heart for Qin Wan.

[Murong Yan's favorability increased by 5, current favorability is 30.]

The little girl was born with a defect and cannot be compared to normal people.

Having finally found a glimmer of hope, they were unlucky enough to encounter Feng Yi, who... wasn't quite right in the head.

It's easy to imagine that she must have suffered a lot of grievances during the years she was Feng Yi's apprentice.

Thinking of this, Murong Yan put away his folding fan, reached out and rubbed Qin Wan's little head, his voice gentle and doting, "From now on, with your senior brother here, I will never let anyone bully you."

Upon hearing this, Qin Wan was taken aback at first, but then she smiled sweetly and sincerely.

To Murong Yan's astonishment, Qin Wan suddenly threw herself into his arms, gave him a quick hug, and then let go.

"Thank you, senior brother."

"Senior brother, you're so kind."

The moment he was embraced, Murong Yan's body stiffened almost imperceptibly.

Fortunately, Qin Wan only hugged him briefly out of gratitude and then let go.

Although the hug was a bit abrupt, it was understandable.

As the head of the Tianyuan Sect, Qin Ge was destined to be busy with affairs, and he would inevitably neglect to take care of and spend time with his daughter.

Feng Yi is such an oddball.

Jiang Liufeng and Nie Xiao are also unreliable.

In this situation, Qin Wan must have lacked care and warmth.

It's no wonder the little girl reacted so strongly and became so emotional in the face of his care and concern.

I understand, I understand.
