But this girl looks unfamiliar. If she grew up in Linjing Pavilion and is an important person, he shouldn't not know her. Why does she look so strange? Could it be that Shi Xingyi has hidden her away?
The more Shi Lan thought about it, the more sense it made. How despicable! The two families had such a good relationship, yet he was hiding a woman behind her back.
The others noticed that Shi Lan seemed even angrier, and they all wondered if this young master Shi also had some kind of relationship with that girl from earlier. Why did his expression seem even worse?
To be honest, besides Shi Lan, Xue Lan and Xue Li were also shocked. What? The young master was engaged to someone since childhood? Then why didn't they know? Weren't they growing up alongside the young master? How come they'd never heard of it?
Xue Lan and Xue Li were the people his father arranged to protect him when he was seven years old. However, he met Wan Ge when he was sixteen, and they played together for a year, so he naturally didn't know about these things.
They said they had been engaged for a long time, but they didn't say they had always been childhood sweethearts.
It's not a lie that they were engaged a long time ago; they did have a verbal engagement back then, and they were still children.
Xingyi hadn't taken it seriously before, but now...
Shi Xingyi listened to his heart beating faster and faster, feeling like it was about to jump out of his throat, and tried hard to suppress his other emotions.
…
Although they didn't know Wan Ge's specific identity and situation, since she was the fiancée chosen by the young master of Linjing Pavilion, there shouldn't be any major problems, so they agreed to let her go with her teammates.
However, the leader of the martial arts alliance was still somewhat uneasy. After they set off, he immediately sent people to investigate Wan Ge's true identity. If she was a threat to him, she would have to be eliminated as soon as possible.
However, he still felt that the chances of nothing going wrong were relatively high.
They still believed that Linjing Pavilion was alright, after all, it came from a prestigious and righteous sect. If it really had fallen into villainy, they would be furious.
But they completely forgot that before they framed so many things, the Shadow Cult was once a reputable and righteous sect.
After being framed so many times, the Shadow Cult gradually broke away from them and eventually had no contact with them at all. However, even in this state, they still could not escape being abandoned, and now they are planning to be besieged by them.
The Shadow Cult initially recruited some chivalrous people who knew martial arts, but as a new sect, it simply didn't have many people, especially those with powerful martial arts skills.
Therefore, the people in their sect are relatively ordinary, and in the eyes of other prestigious sects, they are just some second-rate people.
That's why they feel entitled to blame all the bad things they've done on this group of unscrupulous people.
They were simply taking advantage of their honesty and thinking that their martial arts skills were mediocre and posed no threat.
Moreover, when they discovered that they weren't the only ones with this idea, they felt even more justified in doing such things.
Regardless of how the righteous sects in the martial arts world viewed them, the Shadow Cult persisted in its original beliefs, upholding justice and helping the weak.
Even if they are not great heroes or peerless masters, they still do chivalrous things and help those in need.
