After my Daoist partners broke off their engagement, they pledged their loyalty to me!

"How could this be...?"

Zhou Sheng could hardly believe the scene before his eyes.

Why would another male disciple appear inside Junior Sister Gong's bamboo grove cabin?

He had never even been inside Junior Sister Gong's bamboo grove cabin.

Oh wait, not only did he not go in, he didn't even get close. And now a male disciple has actually walked into Junior Sister Gong's wooden house!?

Doesn't this mean that when Junior Sister Gong said she was busy and inconvenient, it was because she was with this male disciple?

anger!

A surge of anger and embarrassment at being mocked welled up in Zhou Sheng's heart. Without the slightest hesitation, he summoned his flying sword and charged towards the male disciple who had come out of Junior Sister Gong's wooden house.

No matter what, he had to get to the bottom of it!

Because the movement was too fast, the tender green leaves that had fallen on his head finally fell down and slowly drifted to the ground.

Jiang Lin was preparing to return to his room to get ready, to synthesize the spiritual treasures, in preparation for going to the ruins.

As a result, a flying sword carrying a figure fell swiftly down.

"Buzz!"

The flying sword felt sharp.

"Junior brother, what were you doing in Junior Sister Gong's room just now?" Zhou Sheng narrowed his eyes and stared at Jiang Lin.

It seems this person is the aggrieved senior brother Zhou Sheng who was just talking to Senior Sister Gong outside the wooden house.

Jiang Lin's mind raced, but he remained calm and quickly came up with an idea.

Seeing Zhou Sheng's furious expression, he relaxed and deliberately asked, "You're the senior brother Zhou Sheng that my sister mentioned, right?"

Zhou Sheng was taken aback. Sister?

What exactly is going on?

This person is actually Junior Sister Gong's younger brother?

But how come I've never heard of this before!

Although he hadn't heard of it before, Zhou Sheng subconsciously moved the tip of his flying sword away, afraid of causing any unnecessary misunderstanding.

"Yes, Senior Sister Gong is my distant cousin. To be honest, I only found out about this fairy-like cousin today."

"So I came here today to check and confirm!"

"I've taken up so much of Senior Sister Gong's time without even realizing it."

"Did I inconvenience this senior brother in any way?"

Jiang Lin could spout these free, empty platitudes without batting an eye, and his expression was incredibly serious as he spoke.

In particular, he emphasized the words "occupy" and spoke with great emphasis.

Zhou Sheng panicked on the spot upon hearing this.

It turns out he's a distant cousin of Junior Sister Gong!

No wonder this male disciple was able to enter the place where no one had ever been before; there must be a connection between them.

If a distant cousin comes to acknowledge him, then it's understandable.

Thinking about this, Zhou Sheng felt a chill run down his spine.

He almost caused a disaster, but luckily he was rational enough to ask beforehand. Otherwise, if he had attacked Junior Sister Gong's cousin without asking any questions, how could Junior Sister Gong still have any good feelings towards him?

Zhou Sheng quickly sheathed his flying sword. Seeing Jiang Lin's somewhat frightened and confused look, he quickly came up with a clever idea and gave an awkward smile: "I am Zhou Sheng, with the cultivation of the Meridian Opening Realm. Junior Brother, you may not know this, but I am very concerned about Junior Sister Gong. When I saw you coming out of the wooden house, I thought you had bullied Junior Sister Gong. Only then did I realize it was a misunderstanding."

Bullying Junior Sister Gong?

Jiang Lin's expression turned strange. It seemed to make sense. Gong Qingyu had been bullied by him quite a bit just now. Although it was her first time harmonizing Yin and Yang, she had explored many different positions for the harmonizing.

However, his words changed: "So it's Senior Brother Zhou Sheng. My apologies, I almost thought..."

I almost thought something was wrong?

Jiang Lin didn't say what came next, but Zhou Sheng overheard it and almost thought he was about to get a beating.

His expression was conflicted, but he finally made up his mind, patted his storage bag, took out a jade slip, and handed it to Jiang Lin.

"Junior brother, hehe, it's our first meeting. I don't have any gifts to offer. I see that your spiritual energy is not yet fully contained, which means you must not have reached the Meridian Opening Realm yet to cultivate the sword control technique."

"This jade slip contains the cultivation method for sword control and my own insights into practicing it. I believe it will be helpful to you, junior brother!"

After saying that, Zhou Sheng still felt a pang of regret.

You should know that he had prepared the contents of this jade slip for a long time, hoping to sell it for a good price.

Now, in order to make up for the misunderstanding caused by my momentary impulse, I can only give it to Junior Sister Gong's cousin.

Sword control technique?

Jiang Lin's eyes lit up; he really needed this.

Perhaps once inside the ruins, I can break through to the Meridian Opening Realm, cultivate the Sword Control Technique, and fly through the air.

He accepted the jade slip with a smile.

"Then thank you, Senior Brother Zhou Sheng."

"Senior Brother Zhou Sheng has good taste, but Sister Qingyu is a bit slow to warm up, so if Senior Brother Zhou Sheng wants to pursue her, he will have to go through a tug-of-war of time. You should be prepared."

"Ah, this." Zhou Sheng was taken aback, then quickly clasped his hands in a fist salute: "I didn't expect you to see through me, junior brother. I'll have to ask you to put in a good word for me with Junior Sister Gong. I promise you won't be treated unfairly!"

"Sure, sure, I'll be going now." Jiang Lin waved his hand.

"Alright, junior brother, take care. I won't see you off!"

After watching Jiang Lin leave, Zhou Sheng was thrilled: "Great! I never expected to meet Junior Sister Gong's cousin by chance."

"Even her cousin said that Junior Sister Gong is slow to warm up; it seems I really need to prepare myself mentally!"

With his cousin acting as an inside man, Zhou Sheng's chances of winning over Junior Sister Gong were even greater. He was so excited that he clenched his fists!

Stepping onto his flying sword, in a good mood, he decided to come back to ask Junior Sister Gong to refine weapons again tomorrow. He also needed to think of another way to give Junior Sister Gong's cousin something suitable!

Inside the wooden house, Gong Qingyu opened her eyes after a few trembling moments, and looked out of the house with annoyance.

Although she had just been refining the medicinal power of the Water Spirit Rejuvenation Pill, she was also keeping an eye on the situation outside the wooden house.

When she heard Jiang Lin impersonate her cousin and say that he was taking advantage of her, she felt a sudden surge of anger.

"This Jiang Lin, really..."

Then she heard that Zhou Sheng wanted to give Jiang Lin a gift and ask Jiang Lin to put in a good word for him, which made her speechless with anger.

Zhou Sheng is so stupid, he actually believed it?

Forget it, if Jiang Lin's deception of Zhou Sheng is exposed, then that lecherous man deserves his punishment. Let's not think about it anymore!

Gong Qingyu warned herself that although the taste of yin and yang in harmony was good, she must not succumb to it.

"Just this once, and don't let it happen again."

"That's right, just this once. There's no other way this time, after all, I need to resolve my obsessive-compulsive disorder about weapon crafting."

Gong Qingyu silently tried to find a reasonable excuse for her behavior.

She raised her arm.

Thanks to the effects of the Water Spirit Rejuvenating Pill, the tender red scars on her arms had disappeared.

"That's wonderful!" Gong Qingyu's eyes were full of joy.

"Now I have another chance to try and become a third-tier weapon refiner!"

……

On the other side, Jiang Lin returned to his room, where he was an outer disciple. After locking the door, he took out the jade slip that Zhou Sheng had given him and crushed it.

hum~

After absorbing the information in the jade slip, Jiang Lin obtained the cultivation method of sword control and Zhou Sheng's cultivation experience.

To master the art of sword control, one's spiritual strength must meet certain standards.

When one advances from the Qi Gathering Realm to the Meridian Opening Realm, their spiritual power will increase significantly, which is the best time to cultivate the Sword Control Technique.

With Zhou Sheng's cultivation insights and Jiang Lin's own comprehension, it is foreseeable that as long as he breaks through to the Meridian Opening Realm, he will soon master the sword control technique. What a great thing!

However, his lies and deception of Zhou Sheng will be exposed sooner or later.

Then Zhou Sheng will also be an enemy.

Jiang Lin smiled again when he thought of Zhou Sheng as an enemy.

The enemy is good; the enemy is a money-giving boy.

Possess your goddess, take your treasure, the money-bringing boy is truly wonderful!
