Lu Li, Shu Shu, and the other two hid silently in the tree, passively overhearing everyone's conspiracy without missing a single word.

In short, both of them are married, but neither is satisfied with the marriage arranged for them by their families.

The two got together and decided to bring their respective spouses together so they could catch them in the act.

In this way, they can conveniently propose annulment without having to return the benefits they have already received; they also avoid being questioned or harassed by their elders.

If handled properly, the two of them might even be able to use this as an excuse to fight for a chance to be together again, re-enter into marriage, and be with each other.

As for catching them in the act, it's quite simple. A dose of medicine will solve everything. Right now, both of them are training in this forest, making it the perfect time and place.

After discussing it, the two of them didn't even have time to be intimate, and hurriedly prepared to go back to make arrangements.

The sorghum plant in the tree watched the two figures who had already walked a short distance away, silently glanced at the recording stone it had subconsciously taken out, swallowed hard, and looked at Lu Li beside it, transmitting its voice: 'Senior Brother, shall we follow them?'

The question was phrased as an interrogative sentence, but it was spoken with an affirmative tone. She couldn't help it; she was now completely intrigued and wanted to know what would happen next, whether their plan would be carried out, and whether it would be exposed.

Looking at Shushu's wide, blinking eyes and the eagerness practically etched on his face, Lu Li figured they didn't have any particular purpose in mind, so he nodded in agreement: "Let's go."

Then, he received three eager and excited smiling faces, which made Lu Li's mouth twitch. Too lazy to pay attention to them, he took the lead and chased after the two.

Seeing this, Shushu and the other two quickly followed. Shushu soon walked alongside him, while Xuejie and Jinyun followed behind them.

The four of them kept a distance that was neither too close nor too far, walking and stopping along the way with the two people in front of them. At the same time, at Shushu's reminder, they refreshed their own concealment talismans and invisibility talismans.

The two people in front of them followed them all the way without noticing that four curious onlookers were following them and had led them to the vicinity of their temporary camp.

Perhaps to avoid suspicion, or for some other reason, the two separated very tacitly when they were about to reach the camp, each going on one side, obviously planning to return at different times and from different directions later.

The four people behind them, seeing the two split into two groups, exchanged glances and stopped in their tracks, not following any closer.

In the following days, they followed them from a distance, secretly investigating, and finally figured out the two people the male and female cultivators wanted to frame, as well as the grudges and affections between them.

The two people they wanted to frame, who were also their fiancées, were a female cultivator named Tong Xinyan, who had dual fire and wood spiritual roots and was in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and a sword cultivator named Dong Hongyuan, who was in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

The male and female cultivators who wanted to harm others were: the male was Du Lekang, who was in the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage with both Metal and Water elements, and the female was Hang Hanyin, who was in the late stage of the Nascent Soul stage with a single Earth element.

Tong Xinyan and Dong Hongyuan's families were both better off than Du Lekang and Hang Hanyin's families. This marriage was arranged because the Du and Hang families relied on the past favors of their elders.

It should have been a good thing, and it could be considered a high-status match for the Du and Hang families. However, Du Lekang and Hang Hanyin met by chance in their early years and developed feelings for each other.

These two love-struck individuals are quite peculiar; when their family elders proposed marriage, they dared not refuse.

After the marriage was arranged, instead of cherishing and being happy, they felt that their family was arranging the marriage and using their marriage and future happiness as bargaining chips to exchange for benefits.

Then, these two people with peculiar thought processes felt wronged and realized they couldn't be so cowardly anymore; they had to rise up and fight back.

So they turned around and confessed their feelings and started a relationship, disregarding their marriages and the potential loss of face for their families if the affair were exposed.

After that, they poured out their hearts to each other, had a secret relationship, and were all caught in a situation beyond their control. They even added drama to their own lives, creating this tragic love story.

In the end, perhaps because they really wanted to be together, or perhaps because the drama had already progressed to this point, these two oddballs came up with this idea.

When they finally understood the whole story, everyone—from Shushu Luli to Xuejie and Jin Yun—was completely dumbfounded, unable to believe that such bizarre people existed in the world.

So, in a moment of excitement, the potato decided to sabotage the plan and act as a righteous hero, preparing to thwart their scheme when they made their move.

After all, over the past few days, they had roughly figured out the character of this group of people and found that Tong Xinyan and Dong Hongyuan were decent people, so they naturally didn't mind lending them a hand.

However, the subsequent developments were even more unexpected than she had anticipated.

The four of them followed the group from the inner edge of the forest to the middle edge, and then to the outer edge. Apart from intermittent, restrained exchanges of glances, the two of them did not take any substantial action.

After careful analysis, Shushu had to admit that these two were people who had the desire to steal but lacked the courage.

After following them for a while, Shushu even discovered that Tong Xinyan and Dong Hongyuan actually knew about these two oddballs, but for some reason, they were just pretending not to know.

After this discovery, even the millet was speechless.

Seeing that the group had left the forest and a large city was not far away, Shushu completely lost interest.

He turned around and pulled Lu Li and the others ahead of them, joining the queue to enter the city, no longer paying attention to them.

Focused on the front, Shushu didn't notice that the moment they rushed out and passed the group, Dong Hongyuan's eyes flickered, and a look of understanding flashed in them.

Lu Li, on the other hand, looked at the other person as if he had expected it. Their eyes met, and they both nodded gently to each other before looking away.
