After the main character who took the blame retired, the female lead quit.

As he spoke, he pulled out a pair of light-colored underwear from his pocket, seemingly regarding it as a precious treasure.

"Damn it! What the hell..."

"what!"

Boom!

Xiao Yu couldn't stand it anymore. He simply couldn't accept a man using his energy on his underwear. It was one thing to do it secretly, but to do it in front of him, in front of a dead photo, was unacceptable.

Is this a tribute to a deceased idol?

The man let out a scream, his body curled up into a ball, and his face turned as red as a boiled shrimp.

"Damn it, underwear, underwear, you pervert, it was you who bought the underwear. You're so young and you're already doing bad things, you want to be like Nantong."

Xiao Yu continued to attack, kicking the man several times until he passed out, at which point he stopped.

"No...no, I just wanted to burn this thing. A junior sister confessed her feelings to me, and I felt...I shouldn't continue like this...I wanted to put an end to this thing. I'm not from Nantong." Before he fainted, the man intermittently revealed the purpose of his visit.

Ironically, the man was an ordinary outer disciple who had been jilted by his fiancée back in his hometown due to his lack of talent in cultivation. He had been depressed ever since, until he met Ye Feng, who had experienced the same thing.

Unexpectedly, he was not discouraged by this experience. Instead, he rekindled his fighting spirit and rose from an outer disciple to an inner disciple in just one year. He even won first place in the disciple competition.

This thrilled the man, who decided to take him as a role model, became a fan, and quietly followed his progress.

Later, the man passed by a group of chattering, excited junior female students and overheard them saying that someone was selling items belonging to Ye Feng, the handsome first-place winner of the disciple competition, but the price was a bit high. They were wondering if they should pool their money to buy some.

An idol's belongings?!

The man became interested in talking about it and they gathered together to discuss it. However, when the group of junior sisters saw him, they blushed and all dispersed.

He finally managed to catch up with one, and after pestering her for a long time, he finally managed to find out her exact location from her as if she were a pervert. It's worth mentioning that this junior sister was the one who later confessed her feelings to him.

Afterwards, he found Sun Qian. Because it seemed strange for one man to ask another man for his things, he made an excuse that it was his cousin from the outer sect who wanted them.

Sun Qian smiled mysteriously and said, "I understand. This item is very popular among many junior sisters. If your junior sister wants it, the price will be a bit higher. That's all."

The man's family was wealthy and he wasn't short of money, but he lacked talent. He figured that since it was something his idol had, he might as well pay the high price, so he agreed.

I thought it was some kind of jade pendant, fan, or signature.

I never expected... it was underwear?

The man was momentarily bewildered, but he couldn't very well return it. He was a man, and he had bought another man's underwear. Even though it was his idol, it felt strange to spread it around, so he kept it at home.

Upon hearing the news of Ye Feng's death, he felt that burning the item at Ye Feng's grave would be returning it to its rightful owner and ending the awkward misunderstanding. So, with a sense of pilgrimage, he came to Ye Feng's tombstone, which led to the scene at the beginning.

Looking at the unconscious man on the ground, Xiao Yu was unaware of the intricacies involved. He simply picked up the man's underwear, which, as the man had said, was clean and tidy with nothing strange on it.

It's really nothing, after all, he likes Ye Feng, not Xiao Yu.

But... damn it, the underwear he bought was his.

Xiao Yu clenched his fist. He had thought it was a junior sister who had a crush on him. When Sun Qian told him that the girl had been bought, Xiao Yu was a little excited. He never expected that it was a man.

Immediately, the spiritual energy in her hand surged and tore the underwear into pieces, thus fulfilling the man's wish. Wearing it was no longer an option, even though the man hadn't done anything.

After searching himself again and confirming that there was nothing else, Xiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

The most urgent task is to dig out Ye Feng's body.

The gravesite was more lively than he had imagined.

He picked up the unconscious man, intending to throw him into the bushes first, but in the instant he grabbed his collar...

A soft shout rang out from behind: "Who goes there?! How dare you openly attack a disciple of my Xuanling Sect!"

Damn! We've been found out.

Xiao Yu quickly released his grip, and the unconscious man's body fell to the ground. He turned his head and saw that it was a Xuanling Sect disciple with a diamond-shaped mark on his shoulder.

Outer disciple?

"I told you he collapsed from heatstroke, and I was trying to save him. Do you believe me?"

Xiao Yu took a step back and explained that he had learned his lesson this time when he infiltrated the Xuanling Sect. He had deliberately worn a fake face that blocked divine sense, so compared to his own handsome face, he looked ordinary and the kind of person you would forget if you threw him into a crowd.

"Heh, stop lying. I saw it with my own eyes. You jumped out of Junior Brother Ye's grave and started punching and kicking him. Do you think I'm blind?"

Faced with Xiao Yu's explanation, this outer disciple did not believe him at all, and even drew his spiritual sword from his waist, cautiously facing Xiao Yu.

There's no solution. Since the crime was witnessed, the only option is to silence them, just like with this disciple below. Knock him unconscious and throw him into the bushes. A fierce glint flashed in Xiao Yu's eyes as he looked at the outer disciple who had drawn his spirit sword. One-on-one, hmm... the advantage is in my hands.

Just as Xiao Yu pulled out his shovel, preparing to knock out the outer disciple with lightning speed, a voice rang out again: "Junior brother? What's wrong? What happened up ahead? You've been standing there for ages!"

An inner disciple with two patterns on his shoulders appeared behind the outer disciple. He yawned as he walked, "Are you slacking off? You won't be able to enter the inner sect if you're this lazy."

"No, Senior Brother! There was an outsider who knocked out one of our disciples. It looks like he was going to do something indecent. When I came here, I even saw him touching that disciple's body." Upon seeing his senior brother arrive, the outer disciple quickly pointed to Xiao Yu and explained to himself.

"No... you need to be reasonable. Don't talk nonsense. Which eye of yours saw me trying to do something inappropriate to him? I'm just taking back what's rightfully mine!"

"What? Someone's here! Enemy attack!" As soon as Xiao Yu spoke, the inner disciple also noticed Xiao Yu sneaking around in front of the grave. He abandoned his lazy attitude and drew his spirit sword, standing next to the outer disciple, looking at Xiao Yu warily.

Suddenly, Xiao Yu had to face two enemies.

Two? There's only one outside and one inside. If you're quick, you can take them down. It's one against two, evenly matched, so it's not too bad.

"What? An enemy attack! Where?" Another disciple ran up behind the inner disciple.

Now it's three against one. Xiao Yu considered it and thought that three against one wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

"Enemy attack? Hmph! Who dares to cause trouble in my Xuanling Sect?" As the sound of enemy attack spread, another inner disciple walked over.

Four against one… Xiao Yu tugged at the corners of his mouth, which were gradually stiffening. It seemed… he couldn’t win.

Moreover, at this moment, Xiao Yu also saw that behind the four of them, there was a large group of disciples holding hundreds of flowers, who seemed to be there to offer incense to the deceased Ye Feng.

At the front of the crowd, a few people were holding up a sign that read: "Hero of the Supreme Profound Spirit Sect - Ye Feng".

Xiao Yu then remembered what Zheng Fei's underlings had said in the restaurant: today is Ye Feng's seventh day memorial, and someone will definitely come to pay their respects. Ye Qingming and the others must have had some private conversations beforehand, so they came to pay their respects in advance.

Right now, the main force has come to pay their respects to Ye Feng.

He was about to make a run for it. One against a group? That was impossible. He couldn't possibly knock everyone's heads out and stuff them into the bushes, could he? Not to mention whether Xiao Yu had that ability, the bushes alone couldn't hold that many people.

Just as Xiao Yu was about to get up and flee, a sword shadow suddenly attacked him. He twisted his body and barely managed to dodge it.

"Hmph! There are all kinds of birds in a big forest. Are you from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect? You dare to cause trouble during Junior Brother Ye's seventh day memorial service. I think you're tired of living." A domineering figure carrying a sword stepped into the air, his aura surging and his spiritual energy surging. Behind him, a huge Yama Dharma Image actually formed.

He has three diamond-shaped marks on his shoulder, indicating he is a true disciple.

Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed. Luo Yanming, a true disciple, was a famous genius of the Xuanling Sect. He came from the super power Luo family. The totem imprinted on his back could summon a phantom to fight, just like a substitute.

He and Li Qingming were once known as the Twin Dragons of the Xuanling Sect, but unfortunately one has fallen and the other is right before our eyes.

"This is actually a misunderstanding. I am Ye Feng's older brother, born of the same mother. I came here to pay my respects after hearing the news of my younger brother's death. As for the disciple of your esteemed sect standing here, this is purely an accident."

Xiao Yu clasped his hands in a fist and explained in a serious tone that he was actually stalling for time, trying to contact the system inside his body to cast another Qiankun Escape Talisman in preparation for his escape.

"Brother?" The disciple narrowed his eyes, seemingly noticing Xiao Yu's little trick. "I've never heard of Junior Brother Ye having an older brother. Humph! You scoundrel, bullying a disciple of my Xuanling Sect, prepare to die."

He raised the arm holding the spirit sword, and the phantom of Yama's Dharma image behind him also raised its greatsword, which was larger than Xiao Yu's entire body, and swung it at Xiao Yu together.

Xiao Yu grabbed the Qiankun Escape Talisman that the system had just sent him, and was about to inject spiritual power to activate it when, at the critical moment, a white figure blocked Xiao Yu's way, spreading his arms: "Wait, Senior Brother Luo, I believe what he said."

The massive shadow of the Yama Blade stopped, and the spiritual power that Xiao Yu had just channeled also retreated back into his dantian. There was no other reason than that the person blocking Xiao Yu's way was Li Yunshang, the initiator of this funeral, the daughter of the Xuanling Sect Master, and who had just become a widow.

“Junior Sister Li, I know you are heartbroken and guilty for losing Junior Brother Ye, and you want to do something for him. But this person is obviously lying. If he were really Junior Brother Ye’s brother, how could he sneak into the Xuanling Sect without even informing him?”

He even knocked out one of my sect's disciples. He must have caught a glimpse of Junior Brother Ye's name on the tombstone and, in his desperation, came up with this story to deceive everyone.

Presumably out of fear of hurting Li Yunshang, this true disciple voluntarily dispersed the Yama Dharma Image, landed on the ground, and spoke to Li Yunshang.

"No, I believe what he said. My senior brother once told me that he had an older brother who was a reclusive cultivator in the mountains and was naturally timid. I guess he infiltrated the Xuanling Sect this time just because he didn't want to see us. Moreover..."

At this point, Li Yunshang paused, turned her head, and looked at the somewhat bewildered Xiao Yu with her beautiful eyes as bright as the setting sun. "I am absolutely certain that he is Senior Brother's brother."

Her beautiful eyes were bright and sparkling, but when she looked at Xiao Yu, there was a burning desire hidden in them, like a hunter who had been waiting for his prey to take the bait.

Chapter Twenty-Six, Let's stay here and sleep for the night.

Because of Li Yunshang's intervention, the noisy scene quieted down for a moment.

Even Xiao Yu was a little puzzled, thinking to himself, "This Li Yunshang is really nice. She even came up with a reason for me. Is this still the same Li Yunshang with the spoiled princess attitude that I know?"

Something's not right. I'll observe for a while. Anyway, I have the Qiankun Escape Talisman in my hand, so I can activate it instantly. Besides, if I escape this time and attract attention, they'll definitely be more vigilant next time they come, making it harder for me to get in.

Thinking it over, Xiao Yu pressed the talisman in his palm and took the opportunity to carefully observe Li Yunshang's attire.

She wore a plain white dress, the sleeves fluttering, suppressing her arrogant air, like a white lotus blooming in a turbid world. Her long, beautiful black hair was tied up in a bun, and her beautiful eyes were slightly red and swollen, perhaps because she had been too sad and tired these past few days. Her originally delicate skin was slightly pale, and her exquisite face was without any makeup, but her beautiful face still looked charming without any adornment.

"But... Junior Sister Li, this person is clearly very suspicious! What if he's a spy sent by the neighboring Ten Thousand Beasts Sect? I suggest we lock him up first and check him before making any decisions. You know the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect has always been at odds with our Xuanling Sect, if..."

Faced with Li Yunshang's explanation, Luo Yanming, a true disciple, had many concerns.

However, Li Yunshang frowned slightly in displeasure, then gave Luo Yanming a sweet smile: "Senior Brother Luo is truly thoughtful, considering the sect's well-being. How about I suggest to Mother that you take on the role of Sect Master of Xuanling?"

"Your brother...this disciple dares not." Luo Yanming immediately lowered his head respectfully, a stark contrast to his imposing demeanor when he first appeared.

After all, power and influence can be overwhelming.

The same goes for this funeral. Ye Feng was just an inner disciple in the Xuanling Sect. Although he won first place in the disciple competition and made a name for himself, he was not enough to warrant the mourning of most of the sect's disciples.

There were only a few female disciples who came to worship him because of his handsome appearance.

Ultimately, it's because he is the Daoist partner of Li Yunshang, the daughter of the Xuanling Sect Master. This was something Li Yunshang herself admitted, so no one doubted it. Instead, they secretly regretted that Ye Feng had managed to get together with her.

Although Li Yunshang is just a mortal who cannot cultivate, her mother is the sect leader of the Xuanling Sect, a great cultivator at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm. If he marries her, how could he not achieve great things in the future?

Maybe the Xuanling Sect will be yours in the future. Li Yunshang's father died early, and the Xuanling Sect was supported by her mother alone. Maybe the mother and daughter will even share a meal together in the future... cough cough... Anyway, I really want to improve!

Moreover, Li Yunshang is quite beautiful, and now that she can cultivate, she is simply the ideal Daoist partner in life.

Watching Li Yunshang bully others, Xiao Yu nodded secretly. This was the Li Yunshang he knew. He had suffered a lot while escorting her back to the sect.

It's just that right now, in order to cover up their own problems, they're putting pressure on others, which feels quite awkward.

"Alright, I guarantee in my own name that he is absolutely not a spy sent by the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. If he were a spy, would he come to a place like this?" Fearing that this wouldn't convince everyone, Li Yunshang patted her chest again and glanced around before speaking.

The surrounding disciples nodded in agreement. If they were spies from the Myriad Beasts Sect, what would they be doing here? This place is located in a remote corner of the Xuanling Sect, a hundred and eight thousand miles away from the core area of ​​the Xuanling Sect. It's a desolate place with nothing to do. What would they be doing here to steal corpses?
