Qiu Zhihe's face showed the "fear" of a deacon disciple suddenly seeing the peak master, and he quickly stood up and saluted respectfully:

"Hello, Peak Master. Why are you here?"

Tan Tai Ming Yue had a gentle expression and spoke softly, "Ruomei, you just became an inner sect disciple, are there any difficulties?"

Qiu Zhihe was flattered and said, "Thank you for your concern, Peak Master. I became an inner sect disciple not long after I entered the sect. I am really honored. Fortunately, my senior sisters and brothers are very caring for me, so I don't have any difficulties."

"Yeah?"

Tan Tai Ming Yue walked to the table and sat down with a smile on her face. Qiu Zhi He immediately poured her a glass of water and behaved in the most respectful manner possible as a disciple.

Tan Tai Ming Yue kept looking at her, her eyes flickering, not missing a single detail.

Qiu Zhihe was respectful and shy throughout, and a little clumsy in dealing with people, just like Ruomei usually behaved, without any flaws.

"Master, please have some tea."

"Um."

Qiu Zhihe poured the tea and stood by with her hands hanging down. Tan Tai Mingyue picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said nothing more.

In the quiet room, the two women, one respectful and shy, the other dignified and peaceful, both hiding their true selves.

After a long silence, Tan Tai Ming Yue finally spoke:

"By the way, Ruomei, I heard from Suxin that you and Lin Qingchou went down the mountain recently."

"Yes, Senior Sister Lin went down the mountain to buy some things and asked me to go with her."

Qiu Zhihe bowed his head and answered respectfully.

"oh?"

Tan Tai Ming Yue suddenly said, "I heard that you were not originally among the people going down the mountain this time. Did Lin Qing Chou specifically ask Su Xin to allow her to take you with her?"

Qiu Zhihe lowered her head and said nothing.

Tan Tai Ming Yue held the teacup in his hand, staring at her without blinking, the spiritual power in his body circulated quietly, and he was ready to take action.

"What's wrong? Is there any difficulty?"

Qiu Zhihe finally raised her head and said in a timid and soft voice:

"Peak Master, it was me who asked Senior Sister Lin to take me down the mountain."

A fierce look flashed across Tan Tai Ming Yue's eyes, and she asked with a smile, "Why?"

Qiu Zhihe replied, "I became an inner sect disciple only a few months after I entered the sect. I was afraid of being talked about by my senior brothers and sisters, so I wanted to do something for the sect to prove that the decision of the peak master and the headmaster was not wrong."

“I see.”

Tan Tai Ming Yue asked again: "Then why did you come back half a day later than Lin Qing Chou and the others?"

Qiu Zhihe said quickly: "Lin Qingchou found that we had not bought enough spiritual essence, so she asked me to go back and buy more. The three sisters who accompanied us all know about it."

Tan Tai Ming Yue nodded. She had asked Su Xin to inquire about these details before she came. What the people traveling with her said was exactly the same as what Ruo Mei said.

There really are no flaws.

But it seemed too perfect, not even a tiny bit off.

Perfection is weird.

"Then I'm leaving, you take a rest."

Tan Tai Ming Yue stood up with a smile, and Qiu Zhi He bowed:

"Farewell, Peak Master."

"That's right."

Tan Tai Ming Yue took two steps forward and suddenly turned back: "Ruomei, you don't look very well, is there something wrong with your cultivation?"

Qiu Zhihe was still "shy", but also a little grateful: "Thank you for your concern, Master. I, I'm fine."

Tan Tai Ming Yue took a step forward and instantly arrived in front of Qiu Zhi He, with a gentle smile on her face:

"I'm a medical practitioner. Let me take a look at you."

Although she spoke gently, her hand had already reached out for Qiu Zhihe's wrist without a doubt.

She wanted to investigate Ruomei's spiritual field and spiritual roots to see her true cultivation and spiritual talent.

Everyone in Hongzhou Continent knows that Xia Qinglian, the Saint of the Demon Sect, has an unprecedented talent and is the purest innate spiritual root of the highest grade.

Even if Ruomei intends to hide, Tan Tai Mingyue has a way to find out her true spiritual roots.

Qiu Zhihe's timid and shy face froze for a moment, and there was a hint of sharpness in her misty and delicate eyes that was about to burst out.

“Who is it?!”

Suddenly, a very slight noise was heard outside. If it were an ordinary disciple, he would have been fooled, but Tan Tai Mingyue had a keen sense and noticed it immediately.

The look he gave Ruomei also became fierce.

There is something wrong with her!

Tan Tai Ming Yue was extremely alert, and several of his magic weapons were vibrating slightly, ready to be thrown out at any time.

"Master Tantai, I am He Zhiqiu, a disciple of Huashen Peak... I am here to look for Junior Sister Ruo."

At this moment, a somewhat panicked voice sounded outside the door.

Tan Tai Ming Yue was startled and looked at Qiu Zhi He, only to see a blush on that delicate face of hers, and the little girl lowered her head shyly.

Tan Tai Ming Yue raised her hand and opened the door. Sure enough, there stood a tall and burly figure outside the door. It was He Zhi Qiu!

"Brother He?"

Qiu Zhihe also looked at Qin Gengyun, with just the right amount of surprise and shyness on her little face, but her eyes were full of blame.

Husband, didn’t I tell you not to come over these few days?

Tan Tai Ming Yue already suspects me, you should stay away from me now. If you come to me so late at night, they will also suspect you!

This vortex is too big, I don’t want you to be drawn into it.

"It's Zhiqiu. This is the residence of the female disciples of Danxia Peak. What are you doing sneaking around outside so late at night?"

Over there, Tan Tai Ming Yue was already looking at Qin Geng Yun with suspicion.

Qin Gengyun seemed not to notice the reproach and worry in Qiu Zhihe's eyes. He bowed respectfully to Tan Tai Mingyue:

"Master Tantai, I am indeed rude, but... I really miss my wife and can't help but want to come and see her."

"Your wife?"

Tan Tai Ming Yue was stunned, Qin Geng Yun continued: "Peak Master, Junior Sister Ruo and I were actually married before we entered Zhen Yang Sect, but Zhen Yang Sect has always had strict rules, and we were worried that we would not be able to enter the sect because of this, so we kept it a secret. Please forgive us, Peak Master."

This time, not only Tan Tai Ming Yue was shocked, but even Qiu Zhi He was stunned.

"Brother He, you, you..."

Qin Gengyun strode to her side, took her hand, and said softly:

"I'm sorry, my lady, I just can't help it. We are married, why can't we just say it openly?"

He looked at Qiu Zhihe with gentle yet firm eyes.

My wife, we are husband and wife, we have to face everything together, don't think of leaving me.

"Husband..."

Qiu Zhihe stared at him blankly, mist rising in her beautiful eyes and her eye sockets moist.

Husband, why are you so stupid? What I do will implicate you!

At this moment, the couple looked at each other infatuatedly, their eyes seemed to contain thousands of words, and in Tan Tai Mingyue's opinion, the two were so affectionate, obviously a loving couple.

In an instant, some images hidden deep in my heart appeared before my eyes.

"Brother, are you really willing to marry me?"

"Mingyue, just give birth to the child first. When I fulfill my wish, I will marry you."

“Brother…”

Tan Tai Ming Yue gathered her thoughts and brushed away the blurry images from the distant past in her mind. She looked at Qin Geng Yun and Qiu Zhi He holding hands, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"What is your intention in hiding your relationship and sneaking into the Zhenyang Sect?!"
