Chapter 523 Be careful not to get taken advantage of.



Qingqiu sighed and then shook her head.

What Jing Zhe said, she had thought about it too.

"Zhe'er..."

When she read Jing Zhe's name, Qingqiu's voice became gentle and doting, as if she had returned to how she was many years ago.

"My second sister became a secretary in the Imperial Secretariat, and my fifth sister became the General Jinghong, but what's the result? After all these years, they still haven't been able to set foot in Pengzhou, and they didn't even know that their parents were gone. Do you know what this means?"

Before Jing Zhe could answer, Qing Qiu continued, "The Prince of Jin's strength far exceeds your imagination. The fact that the three major sects besides Tongtianque are so resistant to the imperial court, and won't even see the Duke of Wei, yet they came to Jinxi and accepted the Prince of Jin's invitation speaks volumes! Second Sister was right to stop you; it shows she still has some conscience!"

"..."

The first part of what he said was normal, but the last sentence had a sour tone, as if he was saying that she had already slept with him, and if he didn't stop her from doing something like that, he would be heartless.

Jing Zhe smiled and said, "Third Sister, you don't need to worry about me too much. If I didn't have a foolproof plan, how could I dare to venture into Jinxi? Don't worry, Prince Jin won't dare to touch me!"

So he told her about poisoning Su Xinping. Qingqiu didn't ask where the poison came from, but it at least proved that the Prince of Jin wouldn't make things difficult for him during his time in Jinxi.

I felt much relieved, but I was still worried. "Since you've already given Su Xinping poison, even if you give him the antidote later, he will still harbor resentment and want to kill you. A mere position as a club president won't protect you. Why don't you join the Qingyun Sect?"

"Forehead…"

A few days ago, Mu Qingren invited him to join the Wuxian Pavilion, and now Qingqiu is inviting him to join the Qingyun Sect. It seems that giving up officialdom and going to the Jianghu is not a bad choice.

"You don't need to worry about not being able to join the Qingyun Sect. I just need to go back and talk to my master, and I guarantee there won't be any problems! Right now... you can't practice martial arts, but you'll just have the status of an outer disciple of the Qingyun Sect, and no one will dare to mess with you in the future!"

Qingqiu said earnestly. At the same time, for someone who had achieved some success in martial arts training since childhood and had a certain reputation in the martial arts world, it was somewhat regrettable that her younger brother did not know martial arts.

Fortunately, Jing Zhe was very skilled in other areas, which made up for her lack of martial arts skills. You should know that when she was traveling around the world, she actually looked down on people who did not practice martial arts.

Therefore, Jing Zhe is quite special.

To everyone's surprise, Jing Zhe waved his hands repeatedly after hearing this, saying, "Third Sister, no way."

"no?"

Qingqiu raised an eyebrow. "Do you know how many people are desperate to get into the Qingyun Sect? But they're all rejected because they're not cut out for martial arts or they're too old. You're too old to practice martial arts now, so getting into the Qingyun Sect is a wonderful thing. Why would you refuse? What, did Third Sister hit you earlier? Are you angry?"

"No, no, how could I dare?"

Jing Zhe laughed and said, "I am now a government official, so it wouldn't be good for me to join one of the four major sects."

"So what? Just be an outer disciple. You don't know any martial arts anyway."

"Let's forget about it. Pavilion Master Mu wanted me to join their Wuxian Pavilion before, but I refused."

Why did she let you join the Wuxian Pavilion?

His gaze turned cold: "You still say you have nothing to do with Wang Yingqiu, but they all want to recruit you into their Wuxian Pavilion... Humph!"

Qingqiu ultimately couldn't bring herself to say the words "son-in-law who lives with his wife's family," and pouted angrily.

"..."

Jing Zhe originally wanted to find a reason to refuse Qing Qiu's offer to recruit him into the Qingyun Sect, but he never expected to let it slip and now he wanted to slap himself.

"Third sister, it has nothing to do with the owner of the garden."

Jing Zhe thought for a moment and immediately said, "It's because Pavilion Master Mu thinks that I am the president of the newspaper and have the right to conduct interviews. She is about to become the Pavilion Master of Wuxian Pavilion and will inevitably expand the scale of Wuxian Pavilion in the future. That's why she wants to recruit me as an outer disciple so that I can be close to them and have priority in interviewing them."

"We can't agree to her request!"

Qingqiu said coldly, "Dreaming of good things! Wuxian Pavilion is mostly full of women. They say they're sending you to do an interview, but who knows what they're up to! And Wang Yingqiu—remember, tomorrow afternoon!"

Speaking of Wuxian Pavilion, one thinks of Wang Yingqiu, and thinking of Wang Yingqiu makes one wish to immediately call the two of them together for interrogation.

Qingqiu wondered if she was sick, wondering why she suddenly had so many worldly thoughts.

I have devoted myself to martial arts for many years, and I never had any worries even when I was honing my skills in the martial arts world. What's wrong with me now?

Then he shook his head. He was his younger brother, the closest person in the world. What did it matter if he was a little more worldly for his sake?

Thinking about it this way makes me feel much better.

Jing Zhe wiped away a cold sweat, knowing that Qing Qiu was deeply obsessed with his relationship with Wang Yingqiu and could easily find out what was going on. Fortunately, he managed to avoid the matter of getting him into the Qingyun Sect.

As for his status as the Right Protector of the Heaven and Earth Sect and his martial arts skills, Jing Zhe refrained from mentioning it, intending to surprise Qing Qiu later.

After giving Jing Zhe another instruction, Qing Qiu prepared to leave.

Jing Zhe laughed and said, "Third Sister, it's so late. Besides, we've already told Master Mingji that we're not going back. Are you really not considering staying here?"

Qingqiu rolled her eyes at him and resumed her previous aloof demeanor.

"You're dreaming!"

"Oh, then I'll dream of sleeping with my third sister in my arms."

"Don't do it!"

Qingqiu came over and tugged at his ear, this time without using much force, as if it were a habit, and was only satisfied after she finished tugging.

Because the room where Jing Zhe was staying was quite large, there were two rooms in total. The two of them had been talking in the inner room where the bed was placed. When Qing Qiu was about to walk towards the door, she suddenly stopped, turned around and made a shushing gesture to Jing Zhe, and then walked lightly and silently towards the door.

Then he suddenly yanked the door open—

Ouch!

Su Xiaoxiao then stumbled in.

Behind her was Qiu Qianqian, whose cultivation level was not much weaker than Qingqiu's. So even though Qingqiu's steps were very light, she still noticed her and quickly retreated.

Unfortunately, time was too short, and they didn't have time to pay attention to Su Xiaoxiao, which made the situation quite awkward.

"Unbelievable! The little princess and—"

Jing Zhe originally wanted to say "Miss Qiu", but Qiu Qianqian glared at him, and he swallowed it back because he felt guilty.

"And he even has a habit of eavesdropping by lying in the corner of the wall!"

He wouldn't dare mess with Qiu Qianqian, but he wasn't afraid of the little girl.

"Who...who was eavesdropping?"

Su Xiaoxiao got up somewhat awkwardly, and said indignantly, "I was with my senior sister. If you don't believe me, ask her if we were eavesdropping."

"Zhe'er, I'm leaving. Don't forget about tomorrow!"

When facing Jing Zhe, Qing Qiu is gentle, but she is not so good-tempered with others.

"Remember to close the door properly, or someone might take advantage of you."

After saying that, he turned and left without looking back.

"..."
