"Um……"
Jiang Deng fell into a brief silence.
What should she say to ease the awkward atmosphere? Waiting online, it's urgent.
"If I say..." Jiang Deng said sincerely, "I can walk on air. I just don't need to. I have to run for fun. Do you believe me?"
Si Mian smiled faintly, "Do you think I believe it?"
Jiang Deng swallowed his saliva and said, "I think you should believe it, right?"
"You are not Ye Guchen at all! Tell me, who are you?"
Si Mian was too lazy to listen to Jiang Deng's lies, so he jumped down from the wall and gradually approached Jiang Deng.
"Senior sister, what are you talking about? I don't understand." Jiang Deng stood there pretending to be calm.
Si Mian continued to stare at Jiang Deng, her gaze seemingly wanting to penetrate Ye Guchen's face and see Jiang Deng's true face. "Ye Guchen never calls me Senior Sister, he only calls me Si Hall Master. Are you going to continue pretending?"
"Well……"
Jiang Deng was completely stuck.
She is not Ye Guchen himself, so how does she know that Ye Guchen and Si Mian have a distant relationship?
"Headmaster! We saw Ye Guchen hiding in the alley ahead!"
"Yes! He hasn't left yet, go quickly!"
Outside the alley, the voices of those who had previously chased Jiang Deng were heard, and the person they called the chief hall master was obviously Ying Fu Hao.
Ying Fuhao is chasing us!
Realizing this, Jiang Deng couldn't help but show a bit of urgency on his face.
There are wolves in front and tigers behind. She is now surrounded. Should she injure Si Mian and escape?
Just as Jiang Deng was about to take action, Si Mian said, "Forget it, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it."
"I know you are not Ye Guchen. Although I don't know your purpose in pretending to be Ye Guchen, we are now related."
"Ying Fuhao has always believed that I was the one pretending to be Ye Guchen, and he has been giving me a lot of trouble for this reason. Well, I will take this opportunity to make peace with him. You can leave now."
Jiang Deng didn't sense any hostility from Si Mian, and his guard dropped a little. He asked, "If I leave, what will you do?"
Seeing that Ying Fuhao was determined to cut her into pieces, it seemed that he would not let her go easily. If Si Mian stayed behind in her place, the result would probably not be much better.
Si Mian's expression was indifferent. "Huh? Just him? He's not qualified to be my enemy."
As he spoke, Si Mian revealed some of his aura, and he was actually in the Spirit Transformation Realm!
Although he had just broken through not long ago and his realm was still a little unstable, he was actually in the Spirit Transformation Realm!
Ying Fuhao, who is at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, is indeed no match for Si Mian.
Hearing the footsteps approaching outside the alley, Jiang Deng said nothing more. He thanked Si Mian, climbed over the wall, and headed towards Baihua Hall.
Sensing Jiang Deng's whereabouts, Si Mian chuckled faintly. So this person was a candidate for the Saint's election? That would be very interesting...
At this time, Ying Fuhao had also brought his men to the alley. When he saw Si Mian in the alley, he was obviously stunned.
"Why is it you!"
Si Mian pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Why can't it be me?"
"Where's Ye Guchen?"
"Has Junior Brother Ye been here? I didn't see him."
Looking at Si Mian's pretentiousness, Ying Fuhao's forehead veins throbbed. He couldn't hold back any longer, "You really didn't see it, because it was clearly you pretending to be Ye Guchen! You even stole the treasures from Junior Brother Ye's mansion just now, hand them over immediately!"
"What treasure?" Si Mian was really confused this time.
"You're still pretending! Once I find that treasure on you, I'll see how you can still argue."
As he spoke, Ying Fuhao gritted his teeth and called out to the people behind him, "Everyone, come to my seat!"
Upon hearing this, a group of people rubbed their hands and were ready to go forward to besiege Si Mian.
Si Mian smiled calmly and released the pressure of his Divine Transformation Realm. "If you are not afraid of death, you can come and give it a try."
The Divine Transformation Realm? !
When did this woman enter the state of spiritual transformation?
Not only did everyone stop, but even Ying Fuhao's expression became surprised and confused.
Even if he is at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm and has a group of cultivators supporting him, he may not be a match for a cultivator at the Spirit Transformation Realm!
Ying Fuhao quickly dismissed the idea of confronting Si Mian head-on. His fingers trembled as he spoke, "Si Mian, just wait! After the Saint's election is over, I will report your actions to the leader, and let him personally punish you!"
"Let's go!"
Ying Fuhao pretended to be calm and left the alley with a group of his men in a heroic and confident manner.
The posture didn't look like retreating without a fight, but more like a winner.
Wang Wei, Ying Fuhao's subordinate and in the early Nascent Soul stage, expressed his speculation, "Headmaster, when we were chasing that person before, she only knew how to run and didn't know how to walk on air. Do you think she could be a Jindan cultivator?"
"A Jindan cultivator?" Hearing this, Ying Fuhao's brows furrowed even more. "Since the person impersonating Ye Guchen wasn't Si Mian, why did Si Mian protect that person?"
Wang Wei suddenly had an idea. "Go through the alley and walk down one street to where Baihua Hall is. Do you think that person's true identity could be a candidate for the Saint Maiden election?"
"Yes!"
Ying Fuhao's eyes lit up, thinking that this must be the case!
First of all, the person who pretended to be Ye Guchen was a female cultivator, and she was also at the Jindan realm, so she must have come from Baihuatang, so Si Mian went back to protect her!
Ying Fuhao quickly asked, "Are there any Jindan-level cultivators among this year's Saintess candidates?"
Wang Wei looked through the list. "There are two people. One is Jiang Deng from the Taichu Sword Sect, and the other is Ying Yubing from the Jile Fairy Palace. I heard that they have a good relationship. They came in the same sedan chair."
"Master, which one should we arrest?"
Ying Fuhao didn't answer immediately, but pondered, "Ying Yubing? Yes, my niece is also participating in the Saint's election. After the election is over, please invite her to my residence."
Wang Wei asked in confusion, "What does this mean?"
"Oh!"
Ying Fuhao smiled confidently and said with certainty, "If my niece is the one pretending to be Ye Guchen, then that would be great. If it's not her, then it can only be that female cultivator named Jiang Deng..."
——
In the blink of an eye, January has arrived.
During this period of time, Jiang Deng's strength rapidly increased to the late stage of the Jindan realm. If the eight gates are opened, he can reach the early stage of the Yuanying realm. If he adds the Dharma body, he will have strength comparable to the Huashen realm!
Now, she finally has the strength to compete with Murong Feiran...
That morning, Jiang Deng was awakened by the urgent knocking on the door before he woke up.
"What are you doing? Are you going to let me sleep?"
Jiang Deng got up, opened the door, and yawned.
Outside the door, a young girl named Naya angrily said, "Why are you still sleeping? Hurry up and get dressed to participate in the Saint's Election!"
"Huh?" Jiang Deng paused yawning and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Has the Saint's Election begun?"
