"That damn Ye Xin, he's shitting on my head."
"The man on the withered tree said angrily."
Lin Shanhe's pursuit of Shen Ruke was partly at Lin Shanhe's behest.
The withered tree master was very close to Shen Tianlong, but he could never figure out what Shen Tianlong was thinking.
He was thinking of having Lin Shanhe pursue Shen Ruke, hoping that his disciple could become her Daoist partner.
Shen Ruke is Shen Tianlong's darling, so their relationship is bound to progress further.
Little did he know that his instruction would become the fuse that led to the death of his disciple, Lin Shanhe.
After Ye Xin killed Lin Shanhe, she immediately pursued Shen Ruke.
The withered tree master looked as if he had been slapped a dozen times, his face burning with pain.
"Can."
Shen Ruke smiled and agreed.
"Senior Sister Shen agreed without even thinking. I feel so heartbroken. She's my goddess."
"If anyone else got Senior Sister Shen, I feel quite heartbroken. If it were Senior Brother Ye, I would feel a little better."
"I feel like an ugly duckling in front of Senior Brother Ye. Besides his great talent and superb cultivation, Senior Brother Ye is also quite handsome, and his personality seems aloof and a bit funny."
"Sigh, I feel the same way. Senior Brother Ye and Senior Sister Shen are a match made in heaven. If Senior Sister Shen were with me, it would be like a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung."
...
Everyone was heartbroken that their goddess had been taken away, and felt that Ye Xin and Shen Ruke were a good match.
It's like someone taking away something you love, and instead of being angry, you feel that it was only right.
That's the general feeling; no one thought Ye Xin had done anything wrong.
Han Feng left with Shen Ruke, and Lin Shanhe had delayed him for quite some time.
Fortunately, Han Feng's contact with Shen Ruke went quite smoothly, so it shouldn't arouse Shen Tianlong's suspicion.
"A perfect match, a match made in heaven."
"Qingwu Tianren laughed."
He wasn't a gossipy person. After saying goodbye to Shen Tianlong, he headed towards his residence.
The others also dispersed, afraid of being remembered by the withered tree master.
It would be difficult for Master Kumu to kill Senior Brother Ye, but it would be very easy for him to kill himself.
"Sect Master, I feel there's definitely something wrong with Ye Xin. He's far too strong. My disciple has cultivated for eight thousand years, how could he be so easily defeated?" Master Kumu said unwillingly.
"Alright, Ye Xin is fine. If you think there's a problem, you can find a way to verify it yourself."
Shen Tianlong ignored Kumu Shangren.
He recalled Han Feng's series of actions but found nothing wrong.
The young man had only been cultivating for a little over a hundred years when he broke through from the Qi Refining stage to the Dao Universe Realm.
This kind of person is definitely arrogant and proud, unlike some old monsters who are low-key.
The old monsters were all brutally beaten by the cultivation world, and each of them had an incredibly deep mind.
If Ye Xin were someone who had cultivated for over a hundred years and wasn't some old monster, then he would be very arrogant.
If Ye Xin is an old monster in disguise, he will appear very profound.
If this old monster were wary of me, he wouldn't have immediately approached Shen Ruke.
Shen Tianlong didn't discover anything he had anticipated; Ye Xin's behavior was no different from that of a young person.
"Am I just overthinking it?"
Shen Tianlong thought it over again, wondering if there was anything wrong with Ye Xin.
He thought about it carefully, but still couldn't find the problem.
"There is also a possibility that this old monster is quite clever and knows that I am a meticulous person, so he must have done it before."
Shen Tianlong still found Han Feng quite suspicious.
He felt it best to let the withered tree master test the waters before making his own choice.
If Ye Xin is actually an old monster at the Dao Heaven Realm or above, I might lose my life if I offend him.
Let the withered tree master test the waters first, to see what kind of old monster Ye Xin really is.
Even if Ye Xin isn't some old monster, his strength is solely due to his own talent.
Shen Tianlong felt that it was a good thing to let the withered tree master get rid of Ye Xin.
Given Ye Xin's cultivation speed, it's highly likely she will break through to the Yellow Heaven Realm.
Shen Tianlong feared that Ye Xin would take his place and serve the powerful members of the Life Dao Sect underground.
He had seen the powerful figures below; their bodies were extremely emaciated and required a large amount of blood sacrifice to recover.
This powerful figure from the Life Dao Sect needs many offerings to fully recover.
The disappearance of many Dao Heaven Realm Supreme Elders of the Life Dao Sect is related to this powerful figure.
If a powerful expert at the Profound Heaven Realm were to allow him to consume it, it would likely allow him to recover instantly.
There's a high chance that the powerful figures in the underground sect of the Life Dao Sect will take a liking to Ye Xin's talent.
It's entirely possible that he'll sink Tianlong, and it's also very likely that he'll cultivate Ye Xin.
Having thought all this through, Shen Tianlong decided to let the withered tree master go first, while he himself would continue to hide in the shadows.
...
"Junior Brother Ye, you can go wherever you want to play, I'll go with you."
Shen Ruke's smile never stopped.
"It's fine to stay at the Life Dao Sect; I don't want to go anywhere else for the time being."
Han Feng did not want to leave the Life Dao Sect to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
The main reason is that Shen Tianlong is too cautious. His choice to leave the Life Dao Sect may arouse suspicion again.
Since Han Feng began cultivating, he had never seen anyone as cautious as Shen Tianlong.
He acted very well in front of Shen Tianlong, and basically didn't give himself away at all.
But when Han Feng left, he could see the strangeness in Shen Tianlong's eyes.
Shen Tianlong did not completely trust Han Feng and still harbored great doubts in his heart.
Han Feng felt that given Shen Tianlong's cautious and prudent nature, he would definitely not test him.
Shen Tianlong will most likely have Kumu Shangren test him.
With the wisdom of the withered tree master, he certainly wouldn't dare to do that in the Life Dao Sect.
If Han Feng leaves the Life Dao Sect, it will fulfill the wish of the withered tree master.
It's highly likely that Master Kumu is personally hunting down Han Feng because of his disciple's death.
Although the withered tree master cannot kill him, his identity will be exposed.
Han Feng is not a masochist and doesn't want to go looking for trouble to be tortured.
"Then let's go to the courtyard over there and rest for a bit."
Shen Ruke listened to Han Feng and led him to the courtyard.
The two sat in a small pavilion in the courtyard, surrounded by blooming flowers, with celestial birds flying overhead from time to time.
Such beautiful scenery is rare and precious elsewhere.
However, within the Life Dao Sect, this scene is considered quite normal.
Everyone's cultivation is on the Great Path of Life, enabling them to control the growth of plants.
Shen Ruke kept smiling and occasionally glanced at Han Feng.
"Junior Brother Ye, I'm so lucky to have met you."
Before Han Feng could speak, Shen Ruke had already spoken.
"I'm very happy too."
Han Feng was completely stumped.
This was somewhat different from what he had imagined. In the past, his Daoist partners mostly acted on their own initiative.
However, after Han Feng arrived in the Dao Domain, he found that the women there were quite proactive.
First Wan Shishi, then Shen Ruke, both were quite proactive.
Han Feng didn't think it was bad; on the contrary, he thought it was quite good.
