Sheng Weilan and Shen Jinian naturally did not miss Yun Fu's expression and eyes; both of them saw greed in his eyes.

Seeing the puzzled and serious expressions on their faces, I had no choice but to explain, "He is the bodyguard my father left me. He usually likes clean and pure souls. He is looking at you like this because he thinks you are good people."

"Is that so..." Sheng Weilan frowned slightly, "But why do I feel like he's looking at me like he's seen something delicious?"

"Oh, I see. He does want to eat, especially clean souls with spiritual power," I replied calmly.

Sheng Weilan, "?"

Shen Jinian, "!"

Seeing their shocked expressions, I smiled gently and kindly, and said to them, "But don't worry, he won't touch any souls without my permission, so don't worry."

Although they are among the best in the younger generation, they still cannot see through Yun Fu's true identity.

Sheng Weilan gave an awkward yet polite smile, "As expected of Senior Lanting, even the bodyguards he assigned to you are so special."

Xia Zheng then brought over the brewed tea. After handing the tea to them, he obediently stood behind me, while the little princess stood beside Xia Zheng, clutching his clothes tightly.

I took a small sip of tea, while Sheng Weilan and the other person's gaze swept over Xia Zheng and the little princess. When they saw the little princess, Sheng Weilan's expression paused slightly.

"Lan Yin...you...you actually have a zombie that's over three hundred years old and has developed sentience by your side?"

"Yeah, they're pretty cute, aren't they?" I chuckled softly, then added, "Look, I'm surrounded by all these strange and quirky people. Would you still like to be my friend?"

I thought Sheng Weilan would reconsider, but after hearing my words, she nodded without hesitation.

"Of course, I want to be friends with you. It won't change because of who you are around. It's because I'm interested in you as a person."

As she spoke, Sheng Weilan's lips curved slightly upward. "Lan Yin, give me a chance?"

I didn't answer Sheng Weilan's question immediately. Instead, I said to her, "I'll tell you after the competition whether we're suitable to be friends."

Shen Jinian sat silently to the side, his gaze mostly fixed on Sheng Weilan. Especially when Sheng Weilan spoke, a faint smile would naturally appear in his eyes, which seemed rather incongruous with his serious demeanor.

It seems the two of them are childhood sweethearts.

"Okay, if we can't be friends, I won't force it." Sheng Weilan nodded.

She took a sip of tea and said, "By the way, do you know what the final competition is about at this exchange conference?"

I shook my head. "I don't know."

Ling Yushan did not reveal what the third round of the finals would be. Did Sheng Weilan and the others find out in advance?

I paused for a moment, then asked, "You already knew?"

Sheng Weilan gently touched the tip of her nose, her voice lowering slightly, "I heard from a rumor that the third round will be held within a specified time and area, and the ranking will be based on the number and strength of the evil spirits captured."

I was slightly taken aback. A competition to catch evil spirits? This third round was indeed simple and straightforward, without any tricks, relying entirely on strength?

Sheng Weilan shook her head, "I don't know for now, but it shouldn't be too far from Lingyu Mountain. It seems to take about three days."
