Chapter 392 Invite these two back as guests

With the brother and sister working together, deceiving Yue Ruoshui was a piece of cake.

Flower Hall.

Shen Quelin glanced at Shen Youqing's exquisite and beautiful hairstyle, then his gaze fell on Yue Xunzhu.

My cousin is quite skillful.

"Breaking news: a cultivator was suspected of being possessed by evil spirits by his relatives and friends. He has now been burned to exorcise the evil spirits," Jiang Chenying said coldly.

After he finished speaking, the flower hall fell silent.

Shen Youqing lowered his head and took a sip of seafood porridge, then picked up a fresh and sweet shrimp and fed it to his mouth.

Jiang Hanying looked up at the group of high-achieving students in front of her, her gentle voice turning serious, "It seems we must play our roles well and not give ourselves away."

Jiang Xuan'an glanced at the person slightly, then picked up a jade steamed dumpling and ate it.

“That was inevitable.” Wei Ningguang recalled, “Fortunately, I didn’t give myself away.”

No one knows whether being burned means being eliminated from the secret realm or death.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a secret realm containing the Chaos Pearl; it's incredibly dangerous!

“Let’s host a banquet,” Shen Youqing said, looking at Wei Ningguang. “We sincerely invite the prominent families in Shuicheng to come and enjoy the flowers.”

Wei Ningguang looked at Shen Youqing and pondered for a moment, then said, "Okay."

Firstly, it allows them to investigate the situation, and secondly, it allows them to look for any other direct descendants of the five lineages.

As for the Chaos Pearl, they are completely in the dark and dare not act rashly.

"Yue... Second Brother, Third Brother, you two come with me to the study later," Jiang Chenying said.

If we're talking about scheming and plotting, among the eight people present, only Yue Xunzhu and Shen Quelin are truly outstanding.

The two brothers nodded.

After breakfast, the group dispersed.

Yue Ruoshui and An Yarou planned to stroll around the Jiang family home, while Jiang Hanying invited Shen Youqing to go out for a walk.

As the wife of the head of the household, Wei Ningguang was preoccupied with matters within the manor. In order to maintain her status, she had no choice but to go and deal with them.

Upon leaving the mansion, Jiang Hanying noticed that Shen Youqing was wearing a veil and asked in a low voice, somewhat puzzled, "Second sister-in-law, what's this?"

"Maintain your identity," Shen Youqing said in a low voice.

Jiang Hanying, with her good hearing, heard this, nodded, and said, "Shall we take a carriage?"

Shen Youqing waved his hand, "Just browsing around."

Jiang Hanying responded, and the two of them, along with many guards and maids, headed toward the bustling main street.

Along the way, Jiang Hanying and Shen Youqing distinguished quite a few cultivators from the crowd.

There are quite a few cultivators in the water city, but there are even more ordinary people.

If these cultivators are found to be acting strangely, they will likely be burned alive.

After strolling along half the street, the two found a teahouse to rest their feet.

Jiang Hanying was not as relaxed as Shen Youqing. She sat to the side, seemingly looking around curiously, but actually observing.

"Yes... cough cough." Jiang Hanying coughed twice.

Shen Youqing focused his attention and looked in the direction Jiang Hanying was looking, and saw Lin Jinyao, dressed as a female knight, being blocked on the stairs by several men.

"Go and invite that young lady over for a cup of tea," a clear, crisp voice rang out.

The maidservant respectfully responded and led two guards upstairs.

A short while later, Lin Jinyao arrived with her maid.

"River……"

Lin Jinyao had met Jiang Hanying before, but having grasped some of the rules, she could only swallow the words that were on the tip of her tongue, "What brings you two here?"

“My second sister-in-law is frail and needs a maid with some martial arts skills to serve her personally. Please consider it.” Jiang Hanying spoke arrogantly, putting on the airs of a young lady. “Don’t worry, my Jiang family will not mistreat you.”

Lin Jinyao looked at the woman wearing a veil, stared at her for a couple of seconds, and then readily agreed.

My junior sister is someone I can trust unconditionally!

Jiang Hanying said a few words to Shen Youqing in a coquettish yet reproachful tone, showing the deep affection between the sister-in-law and sister-in-law.

After leaving the teahouse, the two strolled to the entrance of the fabric shop.

For some reason, Jiang Hanying suddenly became interested, exchanged a few words with Shen Youqing, and then went inside.

Shen Youqing leisurely followed her in and saw Jiang Hanying carefully selecting fabrics, sitting on a stool brought over by the shopkeeper. Lin Jinyao was somewhat curious.

The fabrics Jiang Hanying chose were more suitable for men; in short, she intended to make clothes for men.

"It's a promise, you have to make me a set of clothes."

"I know~"

A loving couple walked into the cloth shop, chatting and laughing.

Shen Youqing's entourage was quite large, so Yun Waixue saw Shen Youqing sitting there as soon as she entered.

Even though Shen Youqing was wearing a veil to cover his face, Yun Waixue recognized his familiar figure at a glance.

Seeing Yun Waixue standing there motionless, the man beside her put his arm around her waist and asked, "What's wrong?"

Coming to her senses, Yun Waixue gave a gentle and serene smile. "It's alright."

Seeing that her smile seemed a little forced, the man asked in a low voice with concern, "Are you really alright?"

As he spoke, he looked at Shen Youqing with some probing and wary eyes.

The maidservant beside Shen Youqing quickly stepped forward to block her mistress, glaring back with unfriendly eyes.

"It's alright." Yun Waixue tugged at the man's sleeve. "Let's go..."

Snow beyond the clouds.

A clear, crisp voice rang out.

The man who was about to go over and pick out some materials stopped and stared straight at them.

Yun Waixue's smile faded and faded.

Seeing Shen Youqing wave his hand, the maid stepped back and stood still.

Shen Youqing raised her hand and lifted the white veil, revealing her beautiful and delicate face.

Looking at the imposing man in the clouds, she spoke in a cool, gentle voice, "Clouds in the Snow."

"You know me?" Xue Zhongyun looked at the woman with a beautiful but cold face and a noble and aloof temperament, paused for a moment, and then asked, "Shen Youqing?"

Shen Youqing looked at Yun Waixue beside him, and the corners of his mouth suddenly turned up slightly.

The curve of his face, devoid of any smile, carried a mocking and indifferent tone.

"Please invite these two back as guests." The cool voice emphasized the word "guests."

As soon as he finished speaking, the guards blocked the doorway.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper wished he could disappear behind the counter.

Lin Jinyao cleared her throat and, adopting a haughty demeanor, said, "My lady invited you two to her residence because she feels a connection with you. You two had better cooperate to avoid any awkwardness!"

Yun Waixue forced a smile, her expression strained.

Shen Youqing looked up slightly at her second senior sister.

Isn't she being way too cooperative?
Lin Jinyao winked at Shen Youqing, as if to say, "Was my acting good?"

Shen Youqing gave him an approving look, then said to the shopkeeper behind the counter, "Shopkeeper, why don't you come over and recommend some fabrics to our two distinguished guests?"

The shopkeeper responded repeatedly.

Yunwaixue gave Shen Youqing a deep look, then pulled Xuezhongyun over to choose fabrics.

Xue Zhongyun is not a brainless person.

Spiritual power cannot be used in the secret realm. At most, he and Yun Waixue are only slightly stronger than ordinary people. However, the guards around Shen Youqing are all trained martial artists, and they may not be able to defeat them.

Jiang Hanying walked over with her maids. She pointed to the fabrics in the hands of the two maids and said, "Second sister-in-law, take a look at these two pieces of fabric. Which one do you think is more suitable for brother?"

Jiang Xuan'an?
Judging from Jiang Hanying's attitude, she probably has some improper thoughts about Jiang Xuan'an.

“There’s no reason he wouldn’t like the one you picked,” Shen Youqing said. “The Jiang family isn’t short of money.”

Jiang Hanying looked at Shen Youqing, a faint smile appearing on her lips, "Second sister-in-law is right."

No wonder my brother speaks of Shen Youqing with such admiration.

After spending more than a day together, she had started to like Shen Youqing.

After selecting the materials, the group returned home.

Because the Chaos Pearl practically delivered itself to our doorstep and even willingly recognized us as its master, the upcoming journey through the secret realm will be much easier. [Pay attention!]

Simply put, it's meant to be funny!
The main reason is that it's almost Chinese New Year, and I wanted to write a lighthearted story. [Seriously]
