Pei Mianman was startled and looked in the direction of the sound. She saw a stunningly beautiful woman with long hair reaching her hips standing by the window. She had an extraordinary beauty, but at the same time, she exuded a dangerous aura that made her seem unapproachable.
"Yun Jianyue, the leader of the Demonic Sect?" The other person's long hair was so distinctive. In addition, Peng Wuyan had recently disappeared on Purple Mountain, and everyone suspected that Yun Jianyue was behind it. So the other person was often discussed. Master Huoling even specifically told her to avoid conflict with people with this appearance in the future.
"The little girl is quite clever." Yun Jianyue nodded approvingly, but her gaze couldn't help but drift towards the girl's chest. Because she had just fallen asleep, the blanket could no longer conceal her ample bosom.
What did this woman eat to grow up like this?
"Where is my master?" Pei Mianman asked, her whole body tensing as she prepared to resist.
You should know that Master Huoling lives next door and is always very concerned about her, so it's impossible that she wouldn't react if someone broke in.
"Huo Ling, I easily distracted her with a little trick," Yun Jianyue chuckled, clearly not taking Huo Ling seriously.
Pei Mianman's eyes darted around: "I heard from Azu that he and you are quite close. Azu is also on this mountain. Why don't I take you to find him?"
She naturally guessed that the other party had ill intentions, so she tried to build a relationship with her through Zuan's name.
“You are indeed a smart woman,” Yun Jianyue said, somewhat surprised by her reaction. “I came here to invite you to come over as a guest. Don’t worry, I won’t make things difficult for you for that boy’s sake.”
"But I think it's fine here. Maybe I should wait until after my competition..."
"Are you here to see the sect leader?" Pei Mianman asked tentatively, while feeling anxious. Why hadn't her master returned yet? And why hadn't the palace master reacted? Could it be that he couldn't detect Yun Jianyue's intrusion?
“Little girl, don’t try to play these tricks on me. I won’t make things difficult for you because of that kid. But if you go too far, don’t forget that I’m the ruthless leader of the Demonic Sect that you all talk about.” Yun Jianyue’s tone was chilling, and the atmosphere in the room instantly dropped to freezing point.
Pei Mianman felt herself locked in by a terrifying aura, unable to move at all. She could only sigh helplessly. She originally thought she still had a fighting chance, but now she realized that the gap was so big that it was despairing. She even had a feeling that her master was also a grandmaster, but he had never brought her such a strong sense of pressure.
I have no idea how Ah Zu managed to get along so well with this terrifying woman.
Left with no other choice, she dressed under the other's gaze and followed her out of the villa. However, she didn't care too much. Zu'an had mentioned their relationship before, and they could be considered friends. From any perspective, she shouldn't want to hurt her. The only question was what her purpose was in taking her away.
Meanwhile, Zu An arrived at the location Xie Daoyun had mentioned on Guanxin Peak. He searched around and quickly discovered some anomalies. Although the traces had been cleaned up, there were still signs of broken trees and plants. The most obvious sign was an open space. Judging from the layout, there should have been a pavilion there before, but now there was nothing there.
A battle capable of achieving this level of destruction requires at least a Grandmaster level or higher, but the entire...
With so many grandmasters in Zishan, how could they not have noticed a single person?
At this moment, a thought struck him, and he suddenly turned around and looked into the distance, where he found Feng Wuchang, the peak master of Guanxin Peak, standing there.
"Oh, it's Lord Zu. What are you doing here so late?" Feng Wuchang's heart skipped a beat. Why is this guy here? Could it be that our plan has been exposed?
"I couldn't sleep at night, so I came out for a walk." Zu An asked casually, "But why is Peak Master here so late?"
Feng Wuchang reacted quickly: "It's because of the recent disappearance of Peng Wuyan that everyone is in a panic. As the peak master of Guanxin Peak and also in charge of this conference, I'm patrolling around to see if there's anything unusual, so that no more disappearances will happen."
Zu An nodded slightly; his explanation was reasonable.
Fearing he would ask again, Feng Wuchang quickly changed the subject: "When did you return, Lord Zu? I don't think I saw you the other day?"
"I went out for a few days and just got back." Zu An replied casually, and since he couldn't find any clues here, he took his leave.
Watching his departing figure, the smile on Feng Wuchang's face gradually disappeared. He thought about how to report what happened here as soon as possible and see how to deal with this guy surnamed Zu.
After leaving, Zu'an was filled with doubts. This Feng Wuchang was very suspicious, but the other party acted so normally. He had no evidence, but his sixth sense told him that the other party was suspicious.
So he ran straight to Baiyujing Villa. Xie Daoyun's cultivation was not high enough, so just because she couldn't sense it didn't mean Yan Xuehen couldn't.
He arrived at Yan Xuehen's room with ease, and didn't use the main entrance.
Instead, he went to the window, but having learned his lesson, he was too embarrassed to just sneak in, so he gently knocked on the window.
"Who is it?" Yan Xuehen's cold voice rang out from inside.
“It’s me,” Zuan replied.
"You're back?" The voice inside initially sounded pleased, but then seemed to realize something and snapped angrily, "Get out!"
Anger from Yan Xuehen: +110 +110 +110...
Zuan: "..."
"You've misunderstood. I really have something to discuss with you this time."
Did this woman think I had come to raid her again at night?
"It's late at night, and men and women shouldn't touch each other. If there's something going on, then speak plainly." Yan Xuehen's tone remained cold, but she was no longer angry.
