While writing a diary at Zongwu, Wang Yuyan falls in love with someone else.

After all, the Ancient Tomb Sect only has a handful of members.

In the end, Li Mochou was able to leave the mountain, but what happened afterward, Xiaolongnu did not know.

In retrospect, it seems that her senior sister, like in the story, may not have found the happiness she desired.

"love……"

Little Dragon Girl looked at the copy of the diary, lost in thought.

Just as Cheng Ying was about to be robbed, Huang Yaoshi, who happened to be passing by, saved her life.

Huang Yaoshi was used to being alone and originally intended to send her away, but Cheng Ying was well-behaved, sensible, attentive, and considerate, which made Huang Yaoshi feel pity for her and thus take her as his disciple.

However, according to Rong'er's words today, Cheng Ying clearly has no connection with Peach Blossom Island, so it seems the plot has undergone a major change.

"So, in the story, I'm still her senior?"

Huang Rong blinked. It was quite a surprise that such a detached and aloof woman could have such a close relationship with her.

Cheng Ying learned martial arts from Huang Yaoshi and developed considerable skill.

Requesting flowers (or flowers)

Later, he encountered Yang Guo by chance, and the two had some interactions.

"Meeting Yang Guo once can ruin your life"—this saying is not without merit.

Not only Guo Xiang proved this with her life, but Cheng Ying did too.

[Even her cousin, Lu Wushuang, was included.]

Although the ending is not explicitly stated, it is estimated that both Lu Wushuang and Cheng Ying were troubled by love and died alone.

What a pity for such a woman, as beautiful as an orchid, as graceful as a chrysanthemum, as gentle as bamboo, and as lovely as a daffodil.

I heard she had appeared at Guiyun Manor, so I took the "Water Control Bead" and went to find her, but I was still a step too late.

"To meet Yang Guo is to be doomed for life... Is it love that cannot be obtained?"

Cheng Ying's heart, which had remained largely unresponsive, stirred slightly, but quickly returned to calm.

That was just a story after all.

... ... 0

"Did he go to Guiyun Manor to look for me?"

Cheng Ying went to Guiyun Manor to deliver "Black Jade Broken Heart Ointment" to Lu Chengfeng.

Lu Chengfeng is Lu Aotian's younger brother. After learning that Lu Chengfeng was disabled in both legs, the couple searched far and wide for famous doctors.

After inquiring, he learned that there was a "Black Jade Bone-Regenerating Ointment" in the martial arts world that could reconnect broken bones and allow people to stand up again. From then on, Lu Aotian took it to heart.

However, the Black and White Duo searched for many years but never found anything.

The "Black Jade Bone-Mending Ointment" that Cheng Ying sent was obtained by their only son, Lu Yi, who had grown up, through some unknown means and had it sent back by someone.

The Black and White Heroes then entrusted Cheng Ying to deliver it to Guiyun Manor.

Now that her mission was complete, Cheng Ying felt there was no need to stay any longer, so she left gracefully.

She wasn't deliberately avoiding Jiang Sishui, but the two still brushed past each other.

In Cheng Ying's view, this was simply a matter of fate not yet bringing them together.

……

"So, my cousin missed out on him." Lu Wushuang breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Then he stared at the page, his brows furrowing.

The phrase "troubled by love, destined to die alone" was something she found utterly offensive.

"What 'Meeting Yang Guo and you're doomed for life'? Me too? Humph, there are countless men in the world, if this one doesn't work out, I'll find another! Are you a god descended from heaven or something, making this old lady hang herself on one tree?"

Lu Wushuang scoffed lightly.

Although she doesn't have a man she likes right now, she doesn't think she would be so foolish as to do something so drastic.

She, Lu Wushuang, will never be a simp! (Part 1)

206 The Great Congming Changping Yunluo, Zhu ignored the order.

Besides Feng Heng, Shangguan Haitang also came to Mantuo Villa today.

[Shangguan Haitang's purpose in coming here was actually to deliver the "Absorption Technique" and the "Indestructible Vajra Holy Skill" to the Divine Marquis in exchange for the whereabouts of the third Heavenly Fragrance Bean, thus completing the original transaction.]

This is something I didn't expect.

[Giving away one door is normal, but giving away both... that's completely out of character for Zhu Wushi.]

[Shouldn't this kind of cunning old fox be someone who "doesn't act until he sees the benefit"? Why is he being so proactive this time?]

I had considered many possibilities for how the final deal would proceed, but I never expected Zhu Wushi to be so decisive and efficient.

This is a gamble on my character!

Jingzhou, the Imperial Palace.

Princess Changping turned to look at Princess Yunluo beside her and asked in surprise, "You gave it to her?"

Princess Yunluo nodded: "We've given you '363,' what else would we do?"

"Didn't you say that we should first see if this royal uncle has any intention of treason before weighing the pros and cons?"

"That's what I originally thought, but seeing my uncle's... oh, I don't know how to say it, I just felt that my uncle was very nervous and anxious, and I softened for a moment, so..."

"You just gave it to him?"

"Um……"

"Oh dear, you silly girl!" Princess Changping sighed, looking at her with a disappointed expression.

Princess Yunluo retorted, "You call me stupid? Then tell me what I should do? Keep it and not give it to you?"

"Of course we can give it, but we can't give it like this!"

"If we don't give it this way, how should we give it?"

"Try to negotiate with him!"

"Making conditions?" Princess Yunluo said lazily, "This princess has no worries about food or clothing, what could I possibly want from you, my royal uncle?"

Princess Changping glanced at her sideways: "You don't even think much of the 'Absorption Technique'?"

Princess Yunluo: "..."

She stood there stunned for a while, then jumped up as if her bottom was on a spring, and shouted, "Changping! How come you only reminded me of something this important now!"

Princess Changping avoided eye contact and said, "I thought you should understand such a simple principle, and I didn't need to remind you."

"Oh dear! How could I be so stupid!" Princess Yunluo banged her head in frustration, filled with regret.

"Eh? No!"

Princess Yunluo stopped what she was doing and looked at Princess Changping with suspicion.

Seeing that the latter's expression was somewhat unnatural, she looked at the diary again and suddenly realized: "I understand! Changping, you're lying to me!"

"What would I lie to you about?" Princess Changping felt a pang of guilt.

Princess Yunluo snorted, "Do you really think I'm stupid? You must have just read the diary and thought of the deal, right? Humph, I knew it. You're no smarter than me. How could you not have thought of that? You thought of it so early?"

Princess Changping gave an awkward smile and remained silent.

But I always felt like something was off.

How did this comparison turn into a sense of superiority?

……

Mantuo Villa.

After Shangguan Haitang relayed the message back, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The task assigned by my godfather is now half completed.

And there's another half...

Shangguan Haitang's memories flooded back.

That day, when Shangguan Haitang saw the diary entry about how she had suffered a terrible misfortune in the story, she took it to heart.

In order to remove the thorn in her heart and to ease the conflict between Jiang Sishui and Zhu Wushi, she decided to come to Suzhou to see Jiang Sishui.

In addition, she wanted to see if the feelings she had kept buried deep in her heart would have any outcome in the story.

However, after only a few days, the spies from the Dragon Guard Manor found her and conveyed Zhu Wushi's orders.

She was told to keep an eye out for news while she headed to Suzhou.

Shangguan Haitang naturally dared not be negligent.

More than half a month later, eighteen messages arrived via Feixin. When pieced together, they turned out to be two secret manuals.

Zhu Wushi did not instruct Shangguan Haitang on how to conduct the transaction, but instead told her to act according to circumstances.

Giving away both manuals together was actually Shangguan Haitang's own idea.
