The Smiling, Proud Wanderer: From the Moment He Picked Up Qu Feiyan

Chapter 155 Ding Yi Visits

The fierce fight in the streets and alleys did not cause much of a commotion.

People in the martial arts world are used to bloodshed, and besides, everyone has the right to kill a lecherous villain like Tian Boguang. So Shen An's move didn't cause much controversy.

Moreover, with undercurrents swirling in Hengyang and everyone preoccupied with their own thoughts, no one had the leisure to delve into the fate of a womanizer.

Upon entering Bailianfang, they bumped into Qu Feiyan. She wasn't surprised to see Shen An carrying Tian Boguang like a dead dog; instead, she stepped forward to lend a hand. It has to be said, she was indeed accustomed to such things, being from the Demonic Sect.

After taking Tian Boguang to the backyard, the two men personally took care of settling the disabled man in.

In this process, Qu Feiyan played a much greater role than Shen An, which made Shen An feel somewhat ashamed.

Afterwards, Shen Ancai approached the other staff members of Bailianfang and instructed them one by one to search for the victims and their families who had been harmed by Tian Boguang. He was busy for quite a while and didn't even have time to eat lunch.

After handling all the matters, Shen An let out a long sigh.

"Sigh—" he sighed softly, a hint of weariness showing between his brows.

Stendar was his senior brother. His leg injury had not yet healed, and he was now in charge of the daily affairs of Bailianfang. He also needed to coordinate the preparations for various Golden Basin Washing Hands Ceremony. Naturally, it was impossible to ask him to do these trivial errands again.

Feng Changrong needs to keep a close eye on the movements of various forces in the city and gather intelligence for the upcoming "operation" of the Songshan Sect. His importance is self-evident.

These complex tasks of finding, contacting, and resettling people may sound easy, but they are time-consuming and labor-intensive, often requiring great patience and meticulousness.

Shen An thought about how he and Qu Feiyan had been so busy doing everything themselves that they were a little flustered, and that's why he missed someone even more.

"Brother An, why are you sighing?"

Seeing Shen An sigh, Qu Feiyan came closer again, her big eyes darting around.

Shen An shook his head helplessly: "I was just lamenting that in the past, I could just ask Junior Brother Li to handle these trivial matters, and he would take care of them perfectly without me having to put in any effort."

Upon hearing this, Qu Feiyan's face fell, and she muttered in dissatisfaction, "Hmph, is Brother An looking down on me? Feifei can handle these things for Brother An too!"

"What can you possibly do?" Shen An said, both amused and exasperated. "If you can just cause me less trouble, that would be a huge help."

Just as the two were playfully fighting, a disciple from the Hundred Refinements Workshop rushed in to report: "Senior Brother Shen, a guest has arrived at the gate! Hengshan Sect..."

Abbess Dingyi, accompanied by her disciples, requests an audience!

"Oh?" Shen An raised an eyebrow, not expecting that Abbess Dingyi would arrive so quickly.

Without a second thought, he immediately ordered, "Please come in quickly!"

He straightened his clothes, and with Qu Feiyan in tow, strode towards the front hall.

As soon as Shen An stepped into the hall, he saw the tall and slender figure standing in the center of the hall with his back to the door.

She wore a faded white robe, held a whisk in her hand, and carried a long sword at her waist, exuding an aura of solemnity and dignity.

Two young female disciples followed behind her, both with delicate features and respectful expressions.

There shouldn't be Yilin there; if she were, she would definitely attract attention immediately.

Shen An glanced at it and couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

He had originally planned to take this opportunity to explain the misunderstanding from the previous night to all six of them in person, to avoid any further trouble. It seemed he would have to first inform them about Tian Boguang's situation, and then find another opportunity to explain.

He was about to speak when Master Dingyi turned around.

Her gaze first swept over Shen An, then fell on Qu Feiyan, who was standing next to Shen An and curiously looking at her.

Today, Qu Feiyan wore a light pink gauze dress, which made her skin look as white as snow and made her look delicate and lovely, which was very different from her usual heroic look in men's clothing.

At this moment, she was blinking her big eyes, full of curiosity about the whisk in Master Dingyi's hand, completely unaware that her appearance had already confirmed certain rumors in Master Dingyi's eyes.

Master Dingyi snorted coldly in her heart.

"That Shen fellow, what a womanizer!" she cursed inwardly. "He has a delicate little maidservant by his side, all dressed up, and he's already trying to seduce my innocent and naive disciple! So young, yet already behaving like this; who knows how many women he'll ruin in the future!"

At this moment, she was even more convinced that Shen An was the kind of dashing young hero who left his mark on everyone.

Fortunately, I had arranged for Yilin to stay at Liu Zhengfeng's residence in advance. Otherwise, if this little girl had seen Shen An again, she might have been deceived by his sweet talk and flattery and lost her mind!

Unaware that he had already been sentenced to "death" in Master Dingyi's heart, Shen An stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Junior Shen An greets Master Dingyi. Your presence honors Bailianfang."

"Young Master Shen, you are too kind. This old nun has come today not for any important matter, but simply to express her gratitude."

Master Dingyi finally turned her gaze back to Shen An, and bowed respectfully with her hands clasped.

"Master, there's no need for this. I really can't accept such praise." Shen An was somewhat flattered and hurriedly tried to help Master Dingyi up.

"If I tell you to suffer, then suffer. If I say you can bear it, then you can bear it. You saved my disciple's life, how can you not accept a simple bow?" Abbess Dingyi actually scolded.

Shen An awkwardly pinched his nose. This nun was indeed as domineering and straightforward as he had expected.

"You're too kind, Master. Tian Boguang is a villain who deserves to be killed by everyone. Besides, Shen and Junior Sister Yilin are both from the Five Mountains Sword Sect, how could I stand by and watch her die? It was just a coincidence."

Shen An made a modest remark, then said in a deep voice, "To be honest, Tian Boguang has been captured by me and is currently imprisoned in the Hundred Refinements Workshop's jail. From now on, you don't need to worry about this thief anymore, Master."

A hint of surprise flashed in Master Dingyi's eyes. So they actually captured Tian Boguang?

"This old nun should truly thank Junior Nephew Shen for ridding the martial world of such a scourge. That lecherous scoundrel Tian Boguang, relying on his exceptional lightness skills, wreaked havoc on the martial world. This old nun has fought him several times, but because he is so slippery, I have been unable to subdue him. Now that Junior Nephew has been able to capture him, it is truly a blessing for the martial world. The entire Hengshan Sect is deeply grateful."

"This achievement is not something I can accomplish alone. If it weren't for Senior Brother Linghu from Mount Hua's assistance, Shen An wouldn't have been able to subdue that lecherous thief. Your words are far too harsh, Master."

Dingyi nodded: Not greedy for credit, that's good.

"Even if it was done by two people, the merit wouldn't be diminished in the slightest. Why should you shirk responsibility, junior brother? Now that this thief has been caught, I wonder what your actions are?"

How should we handle this?

Upon hearing her question, Shen An briefly explained his proposed solution for dealing with Tian Boguang.

After hearing this, Abbess Dingyi's expression changed, and the wariness and scrutiny in her eyes dissipated somewhat, replaced by more appreciation and praise.

"Excellent, excellent! If you repay evil with kindness, how will you repay kindness? Repay evil with justice, that is the right way!" she exclaimed sincerely, her voice softening unconsciously.

After praising her, Abbess Dingyi gestured to her disciple to put down two heavy packages.

"Young Master Shen, this is a small token of our Hengshan Sect's appreciation. We apologize for the inconvenience, but this old nun has urgent matters to attend to and will take her leave now!"

"Master!" Shen An hurriedly caught up, disregarding everything else, and blurted out, "This junior has something else to tell you. The night before last, when we rescued Master Yilin at Huiyan Tower—"

Before he finished speaking, Abbess Dingyi did not pause in her steps.

She didn't even look back, but quickened her pace and went straight out of the Hundred Refinements Workshop. Her two disciples followed closely behind, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Shen An stared in disbelief as Master Dingyi left without looking back, his outstretched hand frozen in mid-air.

He never expected that in this fleeting visit, he wouldn't even be able to utter a single complete sentence.

"That nun Dingyi really has a fiery temper," Shen An said, shaking his head helplessly.
