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

Fox You thought Lin Du was going to send him back, and he left happily. But when he turned around and saw the courtyard full of cultivators, he was dumbfounded.

"Why do I get the feeling that you're planning to besiege our Fusifang?"

He had never seen such a complete group of Supreme Sect cultivators in his life; he could brag about it for a hundred years.

But something's not right, something's not right.

Fox You's legs trembled. You should know that the cultivators of the Supreme Sect are always elusive and appear and disappear without a trace. Even when you ask the sect itself, they have never appeared together in a competition like the Central Continent Grand Tournament.

What kind of fuss is this that they've summoned so many people from the Supreme Sect?

Fox didn't understand, and Fox was terrified.

Feng Chao glanced at Hu You, who was with Lin Du, and said, "Although you always like to bring things into the sect, how come you can even bring home people from Fusifang?"

Lin Du glanced at Hu You, "He did it voluntarily."

Under the oppressive gaze of more than a dozen pairs of eyes, Hu You forced a smile and said, "I really did it voluntarily. I just wanted to abandon darkness and embrace the light."

Not a single word in that sentence was true, but Lin Du wasn't in a hurry. He crossed his arms and said calmly, "The experimental site for modifying your father is in Fusifang."

Fox You's forced smile slowly froze, and after realizing what had happened, she suddenly looked at Lin Du, "You...you mean..."

Lin Du nodded, "There are so many of us here to help all the man-made evil spirits find peace and to cleanse all those involved in the case."

Hu You suddenly felt a strange mix of emotions. He gritted his teeth, stopped his act of tipping off the others, and slowly straightened up. Facing the bowing backs of the Wushang Sect cultivators, he raised his hand and gave Lin Du a somewhat clumsy Daoist salute. "I, Hu You, am willing to sever ties with the people of Fusifang and assist you True Persons in finding the true location where Fusifang is carrying out these shady dealings."

"It's just that I'm of lowly status, merely a subordinate of a branch altar, and many people in Fusifang don't even know each other." Foxy's mind raced, trying to figure out the right way to betray them. "Those who aren't branch altar leaders or members of the main altar couldn't possibly know the location of the main altar."

Lin Du laughed, "No need, I have a solution."

A day later, Hu You appeared on the arrest list posted by Jun Ding Prefecture, accused of plotting to deceive sect disciples and steal sect secrets.

This publicly released arrest list is not just for publicity; it also serves as a way for various factions to claim responsibility.

Fox You's portrait stands out among the exquisite drawings. To outsiders who have never seen Fox You, it may seem somewhat abstract, but the three curved lines of his eyebrows, eyes, and mouth are so lifelike that one can immediately tell who the portrait is.

Within three days, Hu You was rescued and taken back.

He Gui looked at the box of spirit stones and found Lin Du pleasing to the eye no matter how he looked at him.

"It has to be Junior Sister again." He Gui was very satisfied, holding the box and expressing his high approval of Junior Sister's operation.

Three days later, Lin Du still hadn't received any news from Hu You.

Feng Chao was somewhat worried about this. Although Lin Du was intelligent, one could not possibly fathom all human nature, and unforeseen events were bound to occur.

She hesitated for a moment, then got up and went to the Flower Jade Pavilion, looking for the Flower Queen Fairy as soon as she entered.

Zhiling saw that ordinary face again.

"I've been waiting for you." Zhi Ling smiled at first, but after the monk in the blue robes touched the jade carvings on the shelf, her smile quickly faded and turned into anxiety.

"Manager Fox..." Zhi Ling frowned, "It's not good. He sent me a message through a secret contact yesterday, and I haven't been able to get in touch with him since."

Lin Du pondered the reason behind it, "What news?"

Zhiling nervously watched the doorway while reaching out to take a hairpin, breaking the seal, and taking out a small, torn strip of cloth. "This is the edge of Steward Fox's undergarment, but there's nothing on it. I suspect he might have met with some misfortune."

Lin Du raised an eyebrow, took the sliver of cloth, and squeezed it. There was nothing inside. After examining it from beginning to end, it dawned on her, but she didn't show it on her face. "Didn't see anything. Have you heard any unusual noises lately? Inside Fusifang?"

Zhiling shook her head. "No."

Lin Du nodded. "I'll try my best to think of a solution, but I'm afraid something has happened to him."

As she spoke, she looked up at Zhiling, her gaze deep, but her tone light and mischievous, "Speaking of which, what's your relationship with Huyou?"

Zhiling seemed surprised that Lin Du would ask this question. She raised her hand, clutching her handkerchief, and lowered her eyes. "Back when I was just a cleaning maid, Hu You was already the manager here. He liked to adopt godchildren and had many godsons and goddaughters. I was one of them."

Lin Du nodded. "I see."

"Then I'll be going now, take care, young lady." After Lin Du finished speaking, he beckoned to Han Yueling, who jumped down from the jade carving and landed on his shoulder.

Zhiling watched her walk to the door, opened her mouth as if to say something, but ultimately only said, "Why don't you sit a little longer? Don't leave yet?"

Her words were earnest, even tinged with anxiety. Lin Du looked at her for a while, then found a seat by the window and sat down. She seemed relaxed, leaning her upper back against the chair and looking up at the street outside.

Seeing the cultivator's behavior, Zhiling suddenly spoke up, "Hua Yu Lou has never had anyone jump out of a window to run away or climb through a window to steal fragrance. Do you know why?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Du knocked on the windowpane. "Hmm?"

"This entire building is filled with spiritual energy and has an extremely powerful array, created by the most skilled array masters and weapon refiners."

"You're leaving me here because you think that even though I can't escape and you can't think of a better way right now, at least you can keep me here for a while so you can find another opportunity, at least keep my life for a little longer?"

The cultivator's voice was carried to Zhiling's ears by the evening breeze.

Zhiling was taken aback, thinking she had misheard. "What?"

The next instant, a spiritual energy attack shattered the door, completely disregarding Zhiling standing in the middle of the room, its murderous intent palpable, as if it intended to clear away and destroy all obstacles in its path.

Lin Du raised his hand to block the attack, then leaped headfirst out of the window with remarkable ease. He then flipped over and landed on the ground, eliciting gasps from both sides of the red-light district.

She removed the magical artifact, and several figures appeared behind her in that instant.

"Junior Uncle?"

"It seems Fox You has been exposed." Lin Du summoned the Floating Life Fan. "But it's alright, let's deal with the immediate ones first."

Zhiling was thrown heavily to the window. When she turned her head, she saw the person standing on the street. At first glance, she almost didn't recognize him, thinking that the person had already run away.

But the voice rang out again in the next instant, "I say, Miss Zhiling, do you want to jump down? They seem to care nothing about your life."

Zhi Ling was stunned for a moment, not understanding how Lin Du had broken the building's restrictions. Logically speaking, escaping by jumping out of the window was completely impossible.

Until the group of cultivators rushed to the window, "It really is you, Lin Du."

Zhiling's mind went blank, and her gaze focused and froze.

That unremarkable face had long since disappeared. Under the warm glow of the streetlights, a row of six people stood neatly by the window, their appearances varied, but their expressions were remarkably similar.

"Now that you know I am Lin Du, do you still dare to kill me?" Lin Du stood below, speaking clearly. His features were like a cold star fallen from the sky into the bustling world below, clearly below him. Every word he spoke carried an oppressive aura of looking down on all living beings.
