Liu Jiantang stepped forward and stared at Xiao Yuhan. After a moment of silence, he said, "Junior brother, I've heard some rumors about you. Are you... a demonic disciple now?"
Xiao Yuhan shook her head. "I don't know, I don't remember."
Upon hearing this, Nangong Ling'er's expression changed slightly. She reached out and grabbed Xiao Yuhan's wrist, her expression uncertain. She didn't speak, even though she already had the answer in her heart, she didn't say it in front of Liu Jiantang.
But when Liu Jiantang saw Nangong Ling'er's reaction, he already knew the answer in his heart. He knew his junior sister too well. She was always eager to know the truth. At this time, she must have secretly checked Xiao Yuhan. If there was nothing wrong, she would not have reacted like this.
"Junior Sister, don't you have things to do? Go ahead and do them. I have some things to discuss with Junior Brother Xiao."
Nangong Ling'er's expression changed. "Senior Brother, I trust Senior Brother Xiao, so you don't need to avoid me, and there's no reason for me to avoid you!"
Her attitude was very firm. Liu Jiantang looked at her and hesitated for a moment before sighing and saying with a wry smile, "Are you afraid that I will hurt my junior brother? You brat, when did I become that kind of person in your heart? I just want to talk to him alone."
"Senior Brother Liu, it's not just because of that. More importantly, I am also one of the elders of the Heavenly Sword Sect. You shouldn't be hiding this from me!"
Liu Jiantang shook his head helplessly, "Alright, you've already examined Junior Brother, haven't you? He is indeed a demon disciple, right? He probably doesn't remember going to the Heavenly Demon Abyss. But I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing. Junior Brother Xiao, since you are already a demon disciple, then follow your original idea and become a behind-the-scenes elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Don't show your face in public anymore. As for what you should do and what you can do, that's up to you. The rules of the Heavenly Sword Sect will no longer restrict you. As long as you do one thing, be absolutely loyal to the Heavenly Sword Sect, that's fine."
This was indeed Xiao Yuhan's philosophy. A sect needs people to do things that can't be seen in the light. Ye Qingyun had disagreed before, but the only one who could understand was his junior sister.
Now that Senior Brother Liu Jiantang has brought up this matter on his own initiative, it proves that he has also come to understand that in this chaotic world, many things require special methods to deal with.
Xiao Yuhan remained rooted to the spot. He had already come to believe that he had once been a member of the Heavenly Sword Sect, but at this moment he didn't know what he should do or what he wanted to do. However, he could sense that the people in front of him meant no harm, so he nodded and agreed.
Liu Jiantang continued, "Your senior sister Shen is the seventy-eighth sect leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect. When she returns, I will have the world announce that Xiao Yuhan has retired from the limelight and will no longer concern herself with the affairs of the martial world. As for you, whether you want to change your name or not care about your reputation, so be it. Go and do more for the Heavenly Sword Sect, junior brother. From now on, I will be in charge of the Discipline Hall, and I will rebuild your courtyard at the mountain gate forever..."
Listening to Liu Jiantang talk on and off, with his junior sister occasionally chiming in, Xiao Yuhan remained completely unmoved. He suddenly realized that going up the mountain was a foolish decision, and he grew increasingly agitated.
Although everything is so familiar, it is painful to suddenly have your past life imposed on you.
So, making an excuse, Xiao Yuhan quietly slipped away and left the mountain gate without saying a word.
I went to an inn in Lingsu City and met Jun Tan again.
Jun Tan looked at him. "You're here so soon? I thought you were going to lie to me."
"I promised and I won't break it, but I haven't found what I'm looking for here."
"What do you want?" Jun Tan asked.
"I don't know. Maybe I just wanted to see who I was before. Now I know. I'm an elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect."
"And then? Why did you leave so quickly?"
Xiao Yuhan said helplessly, "Knowing what I did in the past doesn't mean I have to do what I do in the future. Right now, I just want to find a place to get a good night's sleep and then go out for a walk. Girl, don't you also want to go out for a walk?"
Jun Tan looked at Xiao Yuhan and smiled slightly, "Yes, but are you sure you're not going back to the Heavenly Sword Sect? In my memory, you treat that place like your own home."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuhan suddenly realized something and immediately asked, "It seems you know me, right? So what exactly is our relationship?"
