Chapter 74 074 Xie Qingyu's heart suddenly flared with anger

The day Shen Zhiwei advanced to the next realm, Xie Qingyu immediately went to Rong Yuejun to sow discord.

Rong Yuejun ignored him completely, and didn't reply to him at all.

Although there was no reply, Xie Qingyu quickly realized that it was a misunderstanding.

Upon learning the truth, Xie Qingyu's heart was filled with mixed emotions.

He appeared gentle and refined, but in reality, he was a very deep and suspicious person. Rong Yuejun understood him well; just as Rong Yuejun said, he never intended to let Shen Zhiwei leave the Second Heaven.

Although he had some conflicts with Shen Zhiwei, the memory of personally shielding his pregnant wife from Rong Yuejun back then had always lingered deep in Xie Qingyu's heart.

Perhaps, he wasn't entirely convinced that Shen Zhiwei would forgive him.

Even if they reconcile, Shen Zhiwei will still be in a subordinate position, completely controlled by him.

Xie Qingyu wasn't sure if Rong Yuejun had told Shen Zhiwei anything, or if she had mentioned that she had no intention of helping Shen Zhiwei's career. Knowing Rong Yuejun's personality, Xie Qingyu figured she had most likely said something like that. Despite knowing Rong Yuejun's nature, Xie Qingyu suddenly felt a surge of resentment.

Men certainly don't like women who expose themselves completely, and Rong Yuejun was such an unlikable ex-lover.

As for Shen Zhiwei, she was more likable than Rong Yuejun because of her cheerful and talkative manner, but there was a layer between them, and she was not as easy to guess as Rong Yuejun.

Xie Qingyu's suspicions deepened.

Even if Shen Zhiwei looks the same as before when Xie Qingyu sees her again, she won't believe it much.

However, Xie Qingyu never expected that Shen Zhiwei would bring Yin Wujiu along as well.

He was suddenly taken aback.

Although they knew Yin Wujiu was still alive, seeing him in person was a different story.

When he left the foot of Mount Sumeru, although he had already decided to abandon Shen Zhiwei, he was still resentful that Shen Zhiwei had such a senior brother by her side, so he took action to kill him.

In front of Xie Qingyu, Shen Zhiwei took Yin Wujiu's hand.

Xie Qingyu felt as if he had been slapped twice, but his expression remained unchanged; his gentle and refined demeanor wasn't so easily shattered. However, a thought flashed through Xie Qingyu's mind—

Did Shen Zhiwei realize that she had once had thoughts of rekindling their past relationship?

His first reaction was that Shen Zhiwei absolutely could not know, otherwise how could he save face?

As she was thinking this, Xie Qingyu came to her senses and realized that her heart was filled with jealousy and resentment.

He had already decided not to trust Shen Zhiwei, but Shen Zhiwei had no intention of gaining his trust: "Sect Master, there is an old matter. My senior brother was attacked and almost died. The attacker was a great cultivator from the upper realm. I don't know how to deal with it?"

Xie Qingyu's face showed a hint of surprise: "Is that so?"

Shen Zhiwei is the sect leader, and although Yin Wujiu is his senior brother, he is willing to obey him. The relationship between the two is one of subordinate.

He disliked Shen Zhiwei's attitude of wanting to stand up for Yin Wujiu.

Of course, Shen Zhiwei couldn't cause any major trouble.

As expected, Shen Zhi smiled and did not speak harshly: "This matter is not easy to handle."

However, she continued, "Since it is a major cultivator from the upper realm, I naturally cannot do anything about it. I thought that if I were to take it to the execution platform, perhaps they would handle it impartially."

Xie Qingyu gave a faint "oh," her expression remaining unchanged.

His mind raced. Was Shen Zhiwei trying to pledge allegiance to the Ling family? Well, she was at odds with both him and Rong Yuejun.

Xie Qingyu replied, "That would be excellent."

He also felt that although Shen Zhiwei and Yin Wujiu were intimate, it might not be true that they liked each other.

Whether a woman is strong or weak, she will always be attracted to a man who is stronger than her. Not to mention a calculating woman like Shen Zhiwei.

She could never fall for a man who was always subordinate to her.

Some old memories flooded Xie Qingyu's mind, making her involuntarily think back to those days when she was reduced to the lower realm. Her attractiveness was so great that it made Yin Wujiu pale in comparison.

He then glanced at Yin Wujiu, whom he had never paid attention to before. Now, Yin Wujiu remained surprisingly silent, his expression calm and seemingly without much excitement.

Suddenly, a strange feeling stirred in Xie Qingyu's heart.

Shen Zhiwei pulled Mu Wuxian along as they brushed past Xie Qingyu.

As is customary upon entering Yuan Yuan Tian, ​​a blood test is required. This was ordered by Mu Wuxian herself, which caused a slight change in Mu Wuxian's expression.

Shen Zhiwei skillfully pulled out a needle, pricked Mu Wuxian's finger, and drew blood into a glass bottle.

Mu Wuxian thought for a moment but didn't move, and also received the injection.

Shen Zhiwei also lowered her voice and said, "Don't worry, nothing will be detected."

Shen Zhiwei acted as if she had powerful connections.

Mu Wuxian hummed in agreement. When he learned that Shen Zhiwei was indeed Tian Shu, he had already guessed who Shen Zhiwei's inside agent was.

His thinking is like a meticulous instrument; all his deductions are logical and predictable, following a set of steps.

Apart from Ming Xueyou, no one could have kept it from me for so long.

Only Ming Xueyou could tamper with Shen Zhiwei's drop of blood.

Shen Zhiwei is meticulous in his actions, and it is unknown what he is planning, but he has already woven such a network.

To avoid alarming Shen Zhiwei, Mu Wuxian did not deal with Ming Xueyou for the time being.

Searching through his memories, even Yin Wujiu, who had been by Shen Zhiwei's side for many years, rarely saw Shen Zhiwei reveal her true nature.

Now, Shen Zhiwei smiled sweetly and chatted with Mu Wuxian: "Do you think Xiao Chan will get first place in the annual exam today?"

Mu Wuxian thought about it seriously and replied, "There's about a 70% to 80% chance."

At this age, most cultivators who enter the Yuan Yuan Heaven can gather Qi. Among them, the best can temper their bodies as early as ten years old. However, last time a terrible thing happened in the second heaven, a beast tide came, and Shen Xiaochan underwent this trial and actually broke through the Jade Liquid Realm.

Even at such a young age, Chen Xiaochan, who is in the first layer of the Heavenly Realm, is already capable of becoming the sect leader.

He said it was 70-80% likely because there are quite a few child prodigies in the world.

Rong Xiao did not participate in previous years, but this time it may not be the case.

Shen Xiaochun has entered the Jade Liquid Realm, so it's not certain that she will win the championship.

Shen Zhiwei's sense of relaxation was incredible, and she couldn't help but smile: "So the possibility is so high. In that case, if she asks for something after getting first place in the annual exam, we can't just agree to it."

The two chatted casually, but Mu Wuxian knew that Shen Zhiwei was up to something big.

The puppet of the Greedy Wolf was nearby, and Shen Zhiwei moved with it by being pulled by the puppet threads. However, it was covered by an invisibility talisman, so others could not see it.

Before coming here, Mu Wuxian was still wondering how Shen Zhiwei would bring the Greedy Wolf Puppet into Yuanyuan Heaven. Who would have thought that it would be such a simple and brutal method.

After all, the various magical artifacts at the entrance of Yuan Yuan Tian are designed to detect the soul, and since the Puppet of Greedy Wolf is empty of soul, it naturally cannot detect anything.

Moreover, puppetry has been in decline for many years, and even though Jiang Yingxue has this interest, her parents think that her hobby has no future.

All of this created a blind spot, allowing Shen Zhiwei to successfully smuggle herself out.

Mu Wuxian had no idea what Shen Zhiwei was up to.

At this moment, Shen Xiaochan gracefully moved closer and snuggled into Shen Zhiwei's arms.

They truly are mother and daughter; they are perfectly in sync.

"Mother, if I get first place in the annual exam, what will you reward me with?"

Shen Zhiwei said seriously, "Didn't you want a purple-grade magic sword? Didn't I give it to you first?"

Shen Xiaochun smiled and asked, "Then how do we calculate it?"

She added, "I haven't decided yet. If I really come in first, can you promise me something?"

Shen Zhiwei wasn't stingy, but she wasn't fooled either: "No, I have to hear what you want."

Shen Xiaochun was not discouraged. She turned around and tugged at Mu Wuxian's clothes, saying, "Uncle Yin has finally come with Mother!"

Mu Wuxian was somewhat at a loss, but with Yin Wujiu's memories, it wasn't as difficult to deal with as she had imagined.

He reached out and ruffled Shen Xiaochan's hair.

Xie Qingyu was chatting and laughing with someone when she came over with others, and she saw the whole scene in front of her.

The three were very familiar with each other. Shen Zhiwei and Yin Wujiu were very close, and Shen Xiaochan would also act coquettishly towards Yin Wujiu.

Xie Qingyu suddenly felt a surge of anger.
