Chapter 108 The Cunning Fox Demon is Imprisoned by the Pure-Hearted Taoist Priest (22 chapters)
The person who previously said that Lin Baiwei and Shi Xiong resembled each other was none other than Yan Anhuai.
Yan Anhuai nodded vigorously, "Then Master, I'll tell you secretly next time."
The master and apprentice's back-and-forth banter put Shi Xiong on the spot, making him lose face.
He strongly suspected that these two people were hired by Yu Sheng to deal with him.
There were already whispers and murmurs around.
All sorts of gazes focused on him and Lin Baiwei, causing his face to darken completely.
"That's true, Lin Baiwei does look a bit like Shi Xiong. Besides, Shi Xiong was so good to him, and his reaction just now was strange. Do you think Lin Baiwei could really be..."
"Wow, this is an amazing secret!"
"That Lin Baiwei is good at coaxing people, he might even be a half-demon! Otherwise, why is he such a useless person?"
"Yeah, she doesn't seem to be very bright either. Maybe it's a side effect of being forced into this birth."
The bystanders quickly revealed the truth of the matter in just a few words.
As things spiraled out of control, Shi Xiong became increasingly distraught.
He didn't know how to explain himself to silence the public outcry...
However, at that moment, a powerful demonic aura suddenly burst forth from the cave, pulling everyone back to their senses.
"Look! It's a cave! The cave is responding!"
"Could it be that a treasure is about to be revealed? Quick, hurry, don't let the demons snatch it away!"
"Yes, yes, yes, we should unite against external threats at times like this!"
The major sects almost all banded together, eyeing the demon race and Yunheng, who was allied with the demons, with covetous intent.
In their minds, Yunheng had already been categorized as belonging to the demon race.
While the two major powers were at odds, another small group had already secretly slipped in.
The one leading the way was Yan Anhuai's master.
Once the various sects realized what was happening, they abandoned any pretense of unity against a common enemy and charged in headlong, fearing they might miss a golden opportunity.
The demons also charged, with Lin Mingji leading the charge.
After Lin Mingji led the snake clan in, Lin Muhan, dressed in black, walked up to Yu Sheng and Yun Heng.
Want to come together?
"Of course, since we're cooperating, we should naturally stick together. This is going to be quite a show..."
Yu Sheng and Yun Heng entered the cave hand in hand, leaving Lin Muhan, who was all alone, feeling quite embarrassed by their public display of affection.
I couldn't help but think of Yan Anhuai.
An Huai's master was also a restless person.
Knowing full well that An Huai wasn't very capable, she still led him straight inside.
With all the major sects and powerful demon races present, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Yu Sheng seemed to sense his worry. "Don't worry, An Huai's master is no ordinary person!"
Lin Muhan knew that Yan Anhuai's master was not simple, but at the same time, he was also unreliable!
Look at how he was taking advantage of the chaos and subtly insulting people just now. Any normal person couldn't stand him.
It might be dangerous for An Huai to be with him.
At this moment, Lin Muhan regretted not having persuaded Yan Anhuai to bring him to Black Cloud City.
Looking at all the major sects and the demon race, An Huai can only be defeated by a handful of people.
However, although An Huai was a bit weaker, he was still much stronger than that idiot who fainted from anger.
Yan Anhuai: Lin Muhan, how can you compare me to him? Is that polite of you?
Throughout the journey, Lin Muhan remained preoccupied, clearly genuinely worried about Yan Anhuai's safety.
"Sheng Sheng, why do I feel like you're very familiar with this place?" Yun Heng watched as Yu Sheng led them through the maze of traps with ease, and a hint of doubt arose in her heart.
He discovered that Yu Sheng was as familiar with the place as if she were strolling through her own backyard.
Is this really reasonable?
Unless here...
Yu Sheng stopped and looked at him with a smile. "Brother Yunheng, haven't you already guessed a bit of it?"
"Why don't you just ask me directly? Are you afraid... or are you scared?"
Yu Sheng leaned close to him, lifted his chin, and kissed him.
Yun Heng suddenly remembered the Black Cloud City conspiracy that Hu Luo had mentioned before. He had noticed that Yu Sheng's reaction was strange at the time, but he didn't think much of it then.
Now it seems... the events in Black Cloud City are probably inextricably linked to his Sheng Sheng.
"So, it was you, Sheng Sheng, who spread the news of the Black Cloud City treasure's appearance?"
Yu Sheng nodded. "Yeah, aren't you curious why I did this?"
"Sheng Sheng, you don't need to test me like this," Yun Heng sighed, her expression somewhat helpless.
Yu Sheng admitted that he did say those words with the intention of testing Yun Heng.
He wasn't sure if Yunheng would develop a grudge against him because of this.
After all, Yunheng grew up in Xingyue Temple, where the old geezer treated him like his own son and would brainwash him from time to time.
He said that all demons were wicked and evil, which led to Yunheng's initial resistance when she learned his true identity.
Although Yunheng has now been successfully tamed, there's no guarantee that nothing unexpected might happen.
He tentatively asked her indirectly, but he didn't expect Yunheng to be so perceptive and immediately sense his thoughts.
"It seems Brother Yunheng saw through it. In that case, what Brother Yunheng meant just now was..."
"I will always believe in you."
Yu Sheng persisted in pressing him, "If one day... I have a conflict with the person you trust most in your sect, will you believe me or him?"
Yunheng found this statement very strange.
The most trusted person in the sect?
The sect he now belongs to is no longer the sect he once knew. He has never been close to Shi Xiong, so how could he possibly trust anyone?
Although Yunheng couldn't understand why Yu Sheng would ask such a question, he could keenly sense that he had to answer it properly.
He is very likely to lose something important.
Yunheng looked directly at Yu Sheng, her gaze firm and affectionate. "Sheng Sheng, you are the person I am closest to and trust the most. To me, everyone else is just a stranger."
Yu Sheng nodded meaningfully.
I hope you'll still think that way by then.
888 couldn't help but ask him, "Sheng Sheng, why did you give him a heads-up?"
"I'm afraid that with Yunheng's current personality, she might not be able to accept it!"
"Don't worry, Yunheng isn't the kind of person who can't distinguish right from wrong. No matter who that person is, he won't let them get away with it if they do something wrong."
"It seems you know him better than I do," Yu Sheng said with a meaningful smile, making 888 feel uneasy.
It feels like I'm being completely exposed.
No, that can't be, right?
888 made an excuse for herself: "Of course, after all, I learned his skills. Besides, given how love-struck your husband is, are you sure he would choose someone else over you?"
"No, not at all," Yu Sheng said, crossing her arms and appearing quite confident.
Rather than saying he believed Yunheng, it's more accurate to say he believed in Yunheng's romantic nature.
