Mei Nianzhi watched the girl's face in the mirror gradually disappear and finally turn into his own face, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the mirror for a long while before he was willing to put it away.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Yan sighed in his heart.

Brother Nianzhi is also a poor man.

As if thinking of something, Xiao Yan said, "I heard that Sect Master Lu of Jianmen Sect has adopted Fan Li as his adopted daughter. Brother Nianzhi, don't you think it's too sudden and too strange?"

Given Sect Leader Lu's status and reputation, the news that he adopted Fan Li as his adopted daughter had already spread among the cultivators.

The monks were talking about Fan Li's origins. Some lamented that she was lucky, while others said that she was very capable of currying favor with a Divine Transformation monk.

There were many different opinions from the outside world, but everyone said that Fan Li was just lucky.

However, Xiao Yan felt that Sect Master Lu had taken advantage of Fan Li.

Whenever Xiao Yan thought of the scene in the secret realm where Fan Li displayed his extraordinary power, he felt frightened.

At that time, Xiao Yan was certain that Fan Li was definitely not an ordinary person. Was Sect Master Lu that powerful when he was young? I don't think so.

Mei Nianzhi and Xiao Yan had the same idea.

Mei Nianzhi's eyebrows were tinged with pride: "Ali is excellent, what's so strange about this?"

Xiao Yan: "Aren't you worried that Sect Master Lu has other intentions towards her?"

Mei Nianzhi slowly turned the white jade ring on his hand, opened his thin lips and said, "Master Qinglan is upright and honest, he is a gentleman."

The subtext is that he trusts the other person.

But he paused, then changed the subject.

"If he truly accepts A-li as his adopted daughter, I will be happy for A-li and feel at ease when I leave. However, if he has other intentions and is not good for her..."

Mei Nianzhi's eyes flashed fiercely, his tone suddenly turned cold, and his smile was sinister: "The Jianmen Sect's mountain protection formation should be repaired."

Xiao Yan was slightly startled: "That's a Divine Transformation cultivator, aren't you afraid?"

Mei Nianzhi smiled carefreely: "So what if I become a god? I am alone, a dying man, what do I have to fear?"

"You really are..." Xiao Yan shook his head, not knowing what to say.

Mei Nianzhi lowered his head and coughed a few times, then turned his head to ask the servant: "Did Sect Master Xue of the Beast Taming Sect send anyone to look for me before?"

The servant bowed slightly and said respectfully, "My lord, Sect Master Xue has sent people here several times, all of which were sent by their Saint Daughter herself. However, you were bedridden at the time, so I turned them down on your behalf."

Mei Nianzhi: "Contact Sect Master Xue, I will visit you in three days."

The servant bowed his head and said with some worry: "But, sir, your health..."

Mei Nianzhi coughed and said, "It's okay."

Upon hearing that Mei Nianzhi was leaving for the Beast Taming Sect, Xiao Yan immediately sat up, and the silver ornaments on his body jingled, which was very pleasant to the ear.

He asked excitedly, "Can I go?"

Mei Nianzhi glanced at him and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Xiao Yan smiled with two shallow dimples: "I'm free. Besides, the journey is long, and I'm worried about you, Brother Nianzhi."

Mei Nianzhi waved his hand gently: "It's up to you."

......

Beast Taming Sect.

After hearing what Ye Wushuang said, Fan Li was so surprised that he forgot to blink.

Su Muqing was actually poisoned by a love poison. This is too... How could it turn out like this?

He was a Jindan cultivator, and ordinary people could not easily get close to him. How could he be so careless and fall into the trap of witchcraft?

An idea suddenly occurred to Fan Li.

Suddenly I remembered Su Muqing’s abnormal behavior in the secret realm.

It was clear that he was swearing to draw a clear line between himself and Song Xixi the moment before, but the next moment he pounced on her and bit her mouth, showing no manners at all.

Now that I think about it, it really doesn't conform to Su Muqing's behavioral logic, and it's abnormal in every way.

It seems that the love poison was contracted at that time.

But apart from her, Su Muqing only had Song Xixi by his side at that time. Could it be that Song Xixi was desperate and did this?

But logically speaking, Song Xixi has already received so much favor from Su Muqing, and she has already handed Su Muqing over to him and made it clear that she will not look back. Why should Song Xixi do this in vain?

Things are weird.

Fan Li was thinking.

Ye Wushuang looked at her expression and thought that Fan Li was considering forgiving Su Muqing. He was so scared that he quickly walked around in front of her and said, "Xiao Lizi, even if this is the case, you must not forgive him!"

Fan Li blinked.

Ye Wushuang said bitterly, "Have you forgotten how he treated you before? Just because a new junior sister came to the sect, he left you aside and ignored you, and even believed one-sided words and misunderstood you. Is this reasonable?"

Ye Wushuang counted on his fingers, enumerating Su Muqing's biased behaviors.

Although she was in seclusion during that time and didn't know what exactly happened to Fan Li, after she came out and learned that Fan Li's foundation was seriously injured by her senior brother, she realized something was wrong.

So he spent some spirit stones to get information from the "gossip boy".

The gossip-monger tells everything he knows.

There are some things that even Fan Li himself doesn't know.

"Do you remember the Fire Lion Ridge trial?" Ye Wushuang said.

Fan Li nodded: "Remember."

At that time, she was still in the young Qi Refining stage and had just hit a bottleneck, so she wanted to go out and gain experience to stimulate her cultivation and break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

So he went to Huoshiling with Su Muqing and only came back after a month and a half of training.

Unfortunately, breaking through the bottleneck was not as easy as she had thought, and she did not gain anything in Fire Lion Ridge. She felt very frustrated, and then she began to retreat and practice hard as soon as she returned to the sect.

It took nearly half a year to break through the foundation.

As soon as she made a breakthrough, she couldn't wait to find her master and senior brother to share her joy.

However, Song Xixi also broke through.

He is even more powerful than her. He broke through from the third level of Qi Refining to the initial stage of Foundation Building in one fell swoop and became an entry-level alchemist.

In comparison, her achievements pale into insignificance.

The reason why Fan Li remembered the experience at Fire Lion Ridge was because he remembered the lonely feeling at that time.

Only Su Muqing noticed her loss and took out a bunch of pills to comfort her.

Ye Wushuang: "It's good that you remember it. Do you still remember that you found a locked wooden box in Huoshiling?"

Fan Li thought for a moment and said, "Remember."

Perhaps anticipating that Ye Wushuang's next words would be related to this "wooden box", Fan Li added: "I gave that wooden box to Senior Brother, and he said there was nothing in it."

Ye Wushuang immediately cursed: "Bullshit!"

"There's clearly a top-grade marrow cleansing pill in that wooden box!"

Fan Li looked surprised: "But he didn't give it to me."

Fan Li frowned as if he thought of something.

Ye Wushuang snorted coldly while holding the sword, and said, "That was because this elixir eventually fell into the mouth of your junior sister. Otherwise, do you think she, with a useless spiritual root, could break through to the foundation-building stage so quickly?"

Fan Li did know that Song Xixi had been truly reborn after taking a top-grade marrow cleansing pill.

It turned out that the marrow cleansing pill was supposed to belong to her.

Fan Li really didn't know about this.

No wonder Su Muqing specially brought a bunch of elixirs to cheer her up that day and stayed with her for the whole day.

It turns out it was because of guilt!

Fan Li couldn't guess what kind of mood Su Muqing was in when he gave her things to Song Xixi, and she didn't want to guess.

Su Muqing, you are really eye-opening.

Ye Wushuang held up four fingers and said, "This is the information I got from Bao Da Ting. I am definitely not talking nonsense!"

Fan Li looked at her seriously: "I know, I believe you."

It's not just because she believes in Ye Wushuang's character, but also because she believes Su Muqing is capable of doing such a thing.

"Thank you for telling me. Otherwise, I would have been kept in the dark and acted like a fool."

Fan Li laughed at himself.

They always said that she had taken away Song Xixi's benefits, but apart from competing for favor with Song Xixi, she had never really taken anything precious from her.

Instead, they, time and again, took things that belonged to her to make up for their debt to Song Xixi.

It's totally irrelevant.

Fan Li couldn't help but wonder how many things there were that she didn't know?

"So, you must never forgive him, and don't forgive those other bastards, otherwise I will think I have misjudged you!" Ye Wushuang raised his eyebrows and said with puffed cheeks.

Those who are involved are often confused, while those who are not involved can see things more clearly.

Ye Wushuang had said something similar in his previous life.

In addition to Ye Wushuang, there were other people who wanted to help her openly or secretly.

It's just that she is too stubborn. She won't turn back until she hits the wall. She doesn't know how to save herself. Even if others want to save her, it's in vain.

Fan Li knew very well how foolish he was in his previous life.

"Don't worry, I've let it go a long time ago and I will never forgive you." Fan Li said, gently pulling her braid.

The damage they did to her was irreversible.

Not only will she not forgive them, she will also watch them turn from the moon in the sky to the mud under her feet.

Speak of the devil; he will appear.

Fan Li's voice transmission jade slip lit up.

Su Muqing's hoarse and sad voice came from inside.
