The entire sect is obsessed with love, but I'm the only one who's truly insane.

As soon as Lin Du entered, he was greeted with a flower, three handkerchiefs, and a shawl, his head and face filled with a rich fragrance.

She looked blankly at her third senior brother, who stood beside her with an air of righteousness, and her second senior brother, who was already smiling and talking to someone.

Warriors and liberal arts students are indeed different.

Cang Li easily rescued his simple-minded junior brother and poor junior sister, who were surrounded by the dazzling world, and led them uphill.

There were too many people; you could only tell who it was by getting very close to them.

If we can't find it outside, then we have no choice but to infiltrate the enemy's territory.

Lin Du put on that obedient expression of "I'm just here to broaden my horizons" again, and followed Cang Li, who had been treated with courtesy all the way, to a private room on the second floor.

A loud conversation drifted to his ears: "Now that Master Cangli has arrived, the courtesan should surely come out, shouldn't she? Wasn't she a big admirer of Master Cangli before?"

Lin Du glanced at his second senior brother, who remained calm and composed, even appearing quite at ease.

Surprisingly, I don't have OCD at all here.

But Lin Du was wrong. When a beautiful female cultivator appeared before them, her shoulders half-exposed, holding a pipa and asking Cang Li for guidance, she had just bowed when she heard Cang Li say, "Fellow Daoist, half of your shoulder is missing, it's asymmetrical."

Lin Du and Ju Yuan both looked up at the sky, their coughs rising and falling in unison.

"Actually... Senior Brother, I enjoy watching it." She noticed the female cultivator's expression stiffen for a moment, and then comforted her, "Asymmetry also has its charm."

"Then your taste is terrible," Cang Li said seriously. "Symmetry is the highest form of beauty."

Lin Du: ...Alright then.

Cang Li continued, "Beauties are all symmetrical. Take you for example, your bone structure is better than your third senior brother's."

Ju Yuan, the innocent victim: ?

He angrily retorted, "What do you mean by a perfect 100% symmetrical beauty? In your eyes, there are probably no beauties at all!"

Cang Li twirled the jade flute in his hand, then pointed deftly at the person entering through the door, "Her."

The newcomer was exceptionally beautiful. Lin Du had seen many beauties, and the people of the Supreme Sect were all of exceptional appearance, but in terms of beauty, no one could compare to the person before him.

With her voluptuous figure and captivating beauty, her upturned fox-like eyes were mesmerizing. Yet, she wore a hazy, plain dress, revealing glimpses of her alluring figure beneath. She arrived carrying a zither, followed by a group of guests who had come spontaneously, calling out the courtesan's stage name, "Yue Ci."

A slight smile appeared on Cang Li's handsome and gentle face. He then stood up and gave a slight bow.

The talisman hidden in Lin Du's sleeve first became scalding hot, then quickly subsided.

She looked up, glanced at the crowd of people in front of her, and slightly raised her eyebrows.

who is it?

"This humble girl, Yueci, pays her respects to True Person Cangli."

The other two were clearly Cang Li's accomplices; their eyes were fixed on the drinks, snacks, and decorations in front of them, but not on the courtesan.

Ju Yuan wondered, if a fight broke out and everything was smashed, how much money would he have to pay for all those exquisite decorations, especially that hibiscus jade ornament?

Lin Du was thinking, the snake demon hasn't been stewed yet, dinner is still undecided, he's hungry, is that crab roe pastry? He wants to eat it.

She quietly reached out her hand and glanced at the adults' reaction.

The "adult" showed no reaction, his eyes fixed on the beauty's face.

Lin Du picked them up without any qualms and ate them one after another.

They were all snacks and appetizers, not enough to fill your stomach. After finishing a plate, you'd be even hungrier.

While Cang Li and the courtesan were discussing the lyrics and music, Lin Du had already devoured everything edible on the table. He was now playing with pine nuts while keeping a watchful eye on everything around him.

I'm hungry.

"I greatly admire your talent, Master. I wonder if I would be fortunate enough to receive your guidance?"

"Okay." The second senior brother's voice became even more pleasant and gentle.

The two were deeply in love, their eyes locked in a passionate gaze. Lin Du felt a little nauseous; these pine nuts were no good, too oily.

Ju Yuan poured himself a drink out of boredom, wondering why his junior sister hadn't found the ghost yet. He felt like his body was about to fall apart.

Cang Li explained softly that the door to the private room should be closed so that it would be quiet to listen to the music and receive instruction.

Lin Du crisply crushed a roasted peanut, then crunched it up and ate it.

Yueci paused as she was about to play, intending to wait for Lin Du to finish eating.

Click click click...

The sound of peanuts being cracked continued incessantly. Yueci glanced at Lin Du, who was still cracking peanuts over there.

There were only about twenty or thirty spirit peanuts on that plate. Yue Ci suppressed her anger and wanted to see how long Lin Du could keep kowtowing.

Click click click...

Yueci: ...

Finally, the plate of peanuts was gone, and Lin Du turned his attention to the plate of sunflower seeds.

Click~

After a crisp sound, Yue Ci could no longer bear it and was about to speak when she heard Cang Li's voice, which was stern, "Junior Sister, don't be silly."

Ju Yuan's eyes were originally fixed on the peach blossom frozen cauldron, but upon hearing this, his pupils trembled. Had Cang Li lost his mind?

Among the fellow disciples, even the usually strict Feng Yi had never been more stern than Lin Du.

Lin Du immediately threw away the melon seed shells, turned his face away, and left.

Ju Yuan was so startled that she quickly stood up. "Junior Sister, don't be so rude!"

Lin Du kicked the door open and walked out with a cold face. Ju Yuan hurriedly chased after him and said something. Lin Du then slammed the door shut behind him.

She has a bad temper.

"I'm sorry, my junior sister is just so willful." Cang Li said apologetically, "Fairy, please."

Yueci blushed as he gazed at her with tenderness and focused attention, and lowered her head to play the instrument.

It was a tender, affectionate tune. Before the song had even finished, the man's long, strong hand reached out and grasped the woman's raised hand—the timing was perfect.

Yueci's body trembled, and her tone faltered as she spoke, "A real person?"

"Young lady, your playing is really... a bit poor." Cang Li's voice remained gentle. "Forgive me, but I can't listen to it any longer."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly gripped the woman's wrist, and with a flick of her finger, the string of the zither rang out with a clear, resonant sound.

When the strings of a musical instrument break, conflict arises.

Cang Li grabbed her wrist, chuckled softly, and then hooked a finger onto the zither. "Just because you're dressed as a beauty, you dare to pretend to be a master?"

The strings, which were originally in the woman's hands, somehow ended up wrapped around Yueci's throat, slicing open her skin.

No blood was seen.

The oppressive aura of a Great Perfection Realm expert suddenly poured out, and the zither music began again, but this time it carried a chilling tone.

Beneath the beautiful skin lay a gaunt, repulsive old man.

Cang Li sighed in disdain, formed a hand seal, and sent the vengeful spirit into the jade flute. A golden light flashed, and the jade flute was wrapped with golden runes.

The door was pushed open again, and Lin Du and Ju Yuan each dragged a servant, who were the two female servants who had come with Yue Ci earlier.

Lin Du said lazily, "Not a person, but a puppet."

Ju Yuan was complaining, "Why didn't you consult me ​​before you started acting? You made me really think that Cang Li had taken the wrong medicine and was bewitched, and that he even dared to be fierce to his junior sister."

The man holding the jade flute smiled and straightened his sleeves. "I didn't discuss it with Lin Du either. When did you realize something was wrong?"

"Senior brother, you said... when it's perfectly symmetrical." Lin Du threw the person into the house. "Third senior brother is only thinking about fighting, but we really can't afford to pay for it. Let's put on an act, catch him off guard, and defeat him one by one."

No one in the world has a perfectly symmetrical face.

Cang Li's words were a reminder that this person was somewhat strange.

Lin Du couldn't help but sigh, "Old ginger is spicier. Everyone in the Supreme Sect is a veteran actor, except for my third senior brother."
