Chapter 203: Going Crazy

Even Xiao Huan couldn't help but cough oddly, looking at the inquisitive look in Lu Cixian's eyes.

Unexpectedly, the head of Buping College, a young talent who is currently in the limelight, has such unique tastes. He came here specially, filled with curiosity about Lu Cixian, and didn't want to miss the opportunity to get in touch with Taoist Friend Lu, but he didn't expect to come across this scene. It seems that he accidentally made a mistake while juggling both sides.

As a man himself, Xiao Huan considered himself to be quite ordinary. He looked on with interest and a slight smile, waiting to see how Lu Cixian is going to handle this harem crisis.

Yuan Liu, in the midst of the storm, felt infinitely miserable in his heart.

Damn it, this is none of his business!

The young man suddenly smiled slightly, still maintaining his calm and composed demeanor. He spoke with a gentle and deep voice, "Ruyi, please stop fooling around."

His voice contained a faint sense of intimidation, making it impossible for anyone to refute his words.

Although Wang Ruyi was petite and naive, she wasn't foolish. She knew that Qiao Wan must have a reason for her attitude, so she immediately fell silent.

No matter what, she would absolutely not be a burden to Brother Cixian!

But upon closer inspection, it seemed like Lu Cixian unintentionally revealed a hint of authority, which shook his lover.

At the same time, the young man gently lifted Qiao Wan's shoulder from his embrace. His palm possessed a bit of spiritual power, using it to dry her clothes. He showed great tenderness and care as he straightened his sleeves and smiled at the people in front of him.

I had never imagined that I would bring such trouble to our esteemed faction when I first arrived. I apologize for any rudeness and I hope you can forgive us. I am just a humble sect leader and I can't handle such a grand reception from your faction. Among us, besides Yuan Liu, the oldest is Lu Pihan, and the second oldest is Xiao Huan. Lu Cixian is the youngest.

But despite being the youngest, Lu Cixian handles himself with grace and confidence. Even in front of people who are, hmm, "high-ranking and influential," he doesn't back down and even casually mentions Kunshan's defense situation.

Yuan Liu, who is lying down, silently covers his knee.

There's no other way, Kunshan didn't handle this well, so they have to face the consequences.

Lu Pihan could clearly hear the faint sarcasm in the young boy's voice, but he kept his gaze on Qiao Wan. In just a blink of an eye, he suppressed the surging emotions and calmly replied, "Taoist Friend Lu, no need to be polite. Buping College has many talented individuals and is capable of handling this situation."

It seemed like he was indirectly implying that Buping College was weaker compared to the other sects that had come to Kunshan. Xiao Boyang's eyes showed a hint of curiosity. After all, it's impossible not to be interested in gossip.

Lu Cixian, on the other hand, behaved arrogantly but seemed to be very protective of Qiao Wan. With this thought, Xiao Boyang, from the Xiao family, started to doubt his life choices. Where did Qiao Wan find this unfortunate person?

In the end, Yuan Liu couldn't handle the strange atmosphere and suggested, "This isn't a place for talking, Taoist Friend Lu, are you sure you want to talk here?"

"Guests are welcome, Taoist Friend Lu is our honored guest in Kunshan. Since it's raining heavily, why don't we go back inside and have a hot cup of tea to rest? We can talk about the rest later."

But Lu Cixian smiled and asked, "What do you think?"

Surprisingly, it was Qiao Wan who was asked this question!!!

Suddenly, everyone's gaze turned to Qiao Wan.

Does Lu Cixian really care about Qiao Wan?

Xiao Huan remained calm.

A man, especially someone like Lu Cixian, always has a few beautiful women by his side. Even though his taste is unique, it's still within the range of a man. It's unclear whether Lu Cixian is genuinely interested in Qiao Wan or if he is fickle and indecisive.

Lu Cixian, or rather Qiao Wan, sneered and said, "What? Is there something on my face? Has Mr. Xiao looked enough?"

Xiao Huan, being shameless, wasn't angry either. He chuckled briefly and said, "Taoist Friend Lu looks magnificent and beautiful. I couldn't help but take a few more glances."

Buping College is weak, but Lu Cixian didn't show any signs of inferiority or fear in front of him and Lu Pihan. He seemed to have the qualities of a leader. Maybe one day, this young man could become the head of a powerful sect.

While Qiao Wan was still easily handling Lu Pihan, Xiao Huan, and the other wicked individuals, she was mentally prepared and confident, giving herself a strong presence.

The girl remained composed and answered firmly, "Let's talk about it later."

As Qiao Wan's gaze swept over the lifeless body of Yao Guichang on the ground, her heart sank slightly.

She didn't expect that Yao Guichang would be so stubborn and refuse to reveal the person behind all this, even at the cost of death. Now that the leads have run dry, the only thing she knows is that the other person definitely has spies in Kunshan. She just doesn't know if any of the people present are also their spies.

She acted swiftly and aggressively to intimidate and threaten. She's not afraid of any tricks they may use against her, but if they harm someone close to her, she must be prepared to face revenge.

However, she needs to be prepared for the possibility that this person may not be intimidated and could manipulate her "loved one" as bait. As her loved one, Ruyi is naive and vulnerable. Just to be safe, she should direct all the blame towards herself.

Just kidding.

Back when she was a socially awkward college student who played online games all day, wasn't she already skilled at managing multiple tasks, including the Qixi Festival mission?

Qiao Wan thought with a blank face, "Who doesn't know how to show affection? Do you believe that she can still take it to a higher level?"

Led by undercover disciples, they proceeded steadily along the way. Lu Pihan walked in front, slow but steady. The night rain soaked him, the coldness seeped into his body. He occasionally coughed, but his peripheral vision remained on Qiao Wan and Lu Cixian at the back of the group. His skinny hand clenched the sword handle, his face expressionless and tightly drawn.

Looking further back, Pei Chunzheng, with raindrops glistening on his beautiful face, had dark hair softly falling over his forehead. His eyelashes lowered, his complexion extremely unpleasant.

But under this eerie atmosphere, not a single disciple from Kunshan dared to utter a sound, even though they felt like they were being scratched to death by little cat claws in their hearts!

How did Lu Cixian manage to hook up with Qiao Wan?!

Yet, Lu Cixian and Qiao Wan were completely oblivious to the strange atmosphere as they occasionally exchanged a few words, as if no one else was around.

Qiao Wan said, "You're injured."

Lu Cixian smiled lightly and said, "It's okay, I'll take you back first."

The hidden disciples opened the way and entered the gates of Kunshan. This made it difficult for the disciples who were sneaking out at night to explore Kunshan.

Just as they had sneaked out, planning to meet a fellow cultivator, have a drink, and play mahjong, they saw in the dark rainy night groups of serious and cold hidden disciples. This scared the night-exploring disciples, and they quickly ran away, covering a distance of three miles.

"Oh, shoot!"

Are these hidden disciples crazy?! They're all out catching people in the middle of the night?!

Luckily, these fierce and intimidating hidden disciples weren't here to catch the night-exploring disciples.

Since Yuqing Peak was closest to the gate, Lu Pihan had just stabilized himself when he saw a graceful figure coming to greet him.

"Elder Martial Brother!"

The commotion ahead was a bit loud, and even Mu Xiaoxiao heard it. She hurriedly came out to meet them.

When her gaze fell upon this group of people, she felt a slight shock.

Xiao Huan, with a calm expression, smiled gently and said, "Xiaoxiao."

Mu Xiaoxiao's face immediately turned red, and she lowered her fair and soft neck.

Although she had an engagement with Xiao Huan, she hadn't actually met him many times. She was more familiar with Xiao Sui than with Xiao Huan. She didn't know why, but she always found Xiao Huan a bit mysterious.

"It's cold and raining heavily," the girl said, carrying a lantern. "Let's go inside the hall first."

Yuan Liu waved his hand and said, "No need, I have to report back to Wenshi Hall." He turned around and hurried away with a group of undercover disciples.

As Mu Xiaoxiao watched the group of disciples leave, she couldn't help but let her gaze fall on the boy next to Qiao Wan. There was a hint of curiosity on her face, but she quickly looked away and focused on Qiao Wan's face.

Qiao Wan took a step forward, blinked her curled eyelashes, and spoke softly: "Younger martial sister, you're really something."

The young girl put on a serious face and scolded, with a mixture of tenderness and annoyance: "Do you know how worried Elder Martial Brother was when you sneaked out of Yuqing Peak today without permission?"

Lu Pihan coughed and glanced indifferently: "Let's talk inside."

After entering Yuqing Hall, they heard Lu Pihan ask coldly: "Where is the master?"

Before they could speak, a voice as cold and clear as snow suddenly came from the front of the hall. Zhou Yan, dressed in a simple robe with his white hair flowing like a waterfall, appeared unexpectedly at the corner of the corridor. "I'm here."

Xiao Huan immediately approached and bowed: "Spiritual master."

It was raining outside, but Zhou Yan only wore a thin robe, looking quite casual.

Lu Pihan had already informed him about the happenings on Dingjiu Street before they entered the mountain gate, but he did not mention Qiao Wan's relationship with Lu Cixian. He just mentioned that Qiao Wan was quite familiar with Lu Cixian.

The young boy also smiled and bowed: "Spiritual master."

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Feeling the strange atmosphere, Qiao Wan started acting serious: "Perfect, I have something for you, just wait a moment."

Not noticing the strange atmosphere, she quickly left the side hall and returned after a while, holding a piece of light blue cloth in her arms.

Zhou Yan trembled all over.

This is... silk fabric!!

"Here." Ignoring Zhou Yan's gaze, Qiao Wan calmly handed the young man the silk fabric: "I thought this fabric would suit you from the moment I saw it."

She never intended to compete with Mu Xiaoxiao for this piece of silk fabric.

Zhou Yan's expression changed drastically and his face became a little unpleasant.

Or rather, Qiao Wan didn't consider this fabric important at all. The fabric he gave her was just a random gift to her.

Zhou Yan lowered his eyes.

This so-called "competition" and Mu Xiaoxiao's "humble resignation" became quite ridiculous at that moment.
