Martial Arts Crossover: Infiltrating a Girls' Chat Group at the Start

As for anything else, there isn't.

Jiang Feng said, "I would appreciate it if the Grand Palace Master could send a few people to accompany me so that I can take over the Jiang family's businesses in Sichuan."

“No need for such trouble,” Yaoyue said. “In business, no one in my Yihua Palace can compare to your Jiang family. Your Jiang family will still manage the businesses in Shu, but I want 70% of the profits every year.”

Jiang Feng was surprised, thinking that this Palace Master Yaoyue was very shrewd. He said, "Even so, the Grand Palace Master still needs to send someone with me to various places in Sichuan, so that it will be easier to share the profits later."

“That’s true.” Yaoyue nodded and looked behind Lianxing. “Xingnu, Pinggu, you two can go with her.”

"Yes, Grand Palace Master." Hua Xingnu and Tie Pinggu stepped forward, leading eight disciples of the Huahua Palace, and followed Jiang Feng to the various businesses of the Jiang family in Shu.

Inside the main hall, Hua Yuenü's smile never faded.

Yaoyue sneered, "Aren't you worried that he'll deceive you?"

Hua Yuenü quickly and respectfully said, "Great Palace Master, Brother Jiang and I are truly in love. From now on, no matter where I am, I will always be your maid."

With a flick of her sleeve, Yaoyue said, "There's no need to mention this matter again. If Jiang Feng really comes to marry you with all the proper betrothal gifts, then you should just be a good mistress of the Jiang family. You've served me for so many years, so he's a good match for me. However, if he dares to deceive me, don't blame me for being ruthless towards him."

Hua Yuenü quickly said, "Great Palace Master, I believe Brother Jiang, he wouldn't do that."

"It's best if it doesn't." Yaoyue snorted coldly, strode out of the main hall, and disappeared from Lianxing and Huayuenu's sight.

Although she spoke coldly, Hua Yuenü felt a warmth in her heart.

Lianxing said, "Yuenü, my sister's words were a bit cold, but she also has a soft side. Please don't mind."

Hua Yuenü said, "Second Palace Master, Yuenü understands. This is the First Palace Master making decisions for Yuenü."

"I'm glad you know." Lianxing nodded gently. "You're pregnant now, so you should get some rest."

Actually, if it weren't for the fact that Jiang Feng was the Palace Master of Yihua Palace, Yaoyue would have really wanted to kill him.

All the romantic escapades have come to my Yihua Palace.

But the deed is done. What good would killing Jiang Feng do? It would only invite a powerful enemy like Yan Nantian. It would be better to do a good deed for him, and Yihua Palace would also gain a lot of benefits.

Among the Jiang family's businesses in Sichuan, Sichuan brocade is the most profitable, bringing in tens of millions of taels of silver annually. Seventy percent of that is seven million taels, and there's no need for management, so the profits are substantial.

Since joining the chat group, her personality has changed a lot. After suffering another setback with Lin Zhu, she has learned to think things through and has the potential to become a strong woman.

Coupled with her naturally domineering personality, she unknowingly exudes a unique charm.

When Lianxing walked in, she saw Yaoyue, who had undergone a complete transformation, and her heart skipped a beat.

Chapter 77 Encounter at Sea

After rinsing himself with the water, Lin Zhu put on his clothes and left the island.

As for the fishing boat, he left it here so that if anyone encountered a shipwreck, they could use the small boat to return to shore.

He walked on the waves, the seawater as deep as an abyss, but his toes only lightly touched the surface, not even fully touching the water, and his body shot forward like an arrow.

His green robe fluttered in the wind, and the strands of hair behind his head moved with it, as if he were a banished immortal descending to earth.

He continued westward, each step precisely landing on the bulging waves of the sea. With the help of the sea's lift, he could drift further and with less effort.

Before we had gone twenty miles, we could see a luxurious ship in the distance.

As they got closer, they saw two men standing on the deck, seemingly talking about something.

In a fleeting glance, they spotted Lin Zhu, and one of them exclaimed, "What superb lightness skill! Brother, how about we have a chat?"

Lin Zhu stared intently. One person had a fair face and red lips, and was charming and attractive; the other had a refined and elegant appearance, and a slender figure.

They were all handsome men, around thirty years old, yet possessed a very mature demeanor.

The one with the refined and scholarly appearance possesses the strength of a Grandmaster, while the other is a Grandmaster.

Meeting at sea is also a matter of fate.

Lin Zhu, with an air of great skill and daring, lightly touched the sea with his toes, turned and floated towards the ship, gently landing on the deck.

"My name is Lin Zhu. I greet you both."

His voice was rather neutral, yet powerful and magnetic.

But in their eyes, coupled with his stunningly handsome appearance, it seemed as if he was deliberately speaking in a gruff voice.

They exchanged a smile and clasped their hands in greeting, saying, "I am Shen Lang, greetings to Brother Lin."

"My name is Wang Lianhua. I greet Brother Lin."

"Shen Lang? Wang Lianhua? Didn't you two go to sea to live in seclusion? Why did you come back?" Lin Zhu was surprised because he didn't expect it to be these two people.

"Brother Lin, have you heard of us?" Shen Lang was slightly surprised.

Wang Lianhua was also one of them.

Lin Zhu said, "I've heard your story before." He thought for a moment and asked Shen Lang, "You didn't come back because you knew you had a son in the Central Plains, did you?"

Shen Lang was stunned. The image of Bai Feifei appeared in his mind. If he had a son in the Central Plains, it would be with her.

So he didn't deny it, but instead asked, "Do you know where they are now?"

Wang Lianhua also thought of her adopted younger sister, and then looked at Shen Lang with a strange expression.

A languid voice came from the attic. The door opened, and a woman in white with unparalleled beauty walked in gracefully.

Who else could it be but Shen Lang's beautiful wife, Zhu Qiqi, in her early twenties, in the prime of her life?

At this moment, she was still a little sleepy and looked tired, probably because she was seasick.

Then he noticed a stranger on the deck. Although he was dressed in men's clothing, he was incredibly handsome.

Her face had a touch of heroism, but she was clearly an unparalleled beauty.

Zhu Qiqi was extremely confident in her beauty, but at this moment she felt that she would pale in comparison to him.

She simply doesn't believe there's anyone more beautiful than her in the world, let alone believe that person is a man.

However, she was still very intelligent. Seeing that Lin Zhu was dressed as a man, she asked, "Why is there an extra young master here? Did you encounter any trouble?"

Seeing that his body was completely dry, he was puzzled.

Shen Lang laughed and said, "Brother Lin came here by traversing the sea with his lightness skill, so he must not have encountered any trouble."

"Lightness skill across the sea, that's amazing!" Zhu Qiqi exclaimed in surprise.

Shen Lang introduced Lin Zhu, "Brother Lin, this is my wife, surnamed Zhu."

Lin Zhu smiled slightly, cupped his hands, and said, "Lin Zhu greets Madam Shen."

Upon hearing this name, a flash of inspiration struck Zhu Qiqi: "You're Lin Zhu!"

She was quite surprised, but then felt it made perfect sense. 'No doubt about it, so stunningly beautiful, and she loves dressing as a man—who else could it be but her?'

Shen Lang, however, was surprised and asked, "Qiqi, do you know Brother Lin?"

"I don't really know her, but I've heard her name before." Zhu Qiqi forced a smile and looked at Shen Lang, saying, "I think I just heard something about a son, I suppose you already know."

Shen Lang smiled wryly, but did not deny it, and said, "I didn't want you to worry, but now that you know, I'll tell you about what happened back then."

He then apologized to Lin Zhu and took Zhu Qiqi back to the attic.

Only Lin Zhu and Wang Lianhua were on the deck.

Wang Lianhua looked at Lin Zhu and asked, "Brother Lin, I wonder how my sister and nephew are doing now?"

Lin Zhu knew who Wang Lianhua was asking about and said, "She is currently taking A Fei to find a master. They should be in the Xiangyang area. A Fei has extremely high talent in swordsmanship."

He says what he thinks, and you could say he's an honest young man.

"Is his name Afei? Shen Fei, that's a good name." Wang Lianhua nodded vigorously.

Lin Zhu said leisurely, "It might be called Bai Fei."

Wang Lianhua paused for a moment, then laughed. "That's possible. It's just her personality. Calling her Bai Fei is fine, but it doesn't sound very nice."

At this moment, Shen Lang was explaining to Zhu Qiqi in his room on the second floor, but he could still hear Lin Zhu and Wang Lianhua's conversation, so he couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

That's how it is, but the situation wasn't what I wanted at the time. You were there, but can I tell you the truth?

Zhu Qiqi was furious upon hearing this. "Seven days and seven nights! Seven days and seven nights! You and I have never been that long! That wretched Bai Feifei, she even came to my place to show off back then, and you even had a son with her. I'm so angry!"

Her focus surprised Shen Lang. "Even if I can manage, is your health up to it?"

As if knowing what Shen Lang was thinking, Zhu Qiqi said, "I want to practice martial arts."

Shen Lang asked in surprise, "Why are you thinking about practicing martial arts?"

"What do you think?" Zhu Qiqi smiled coldly.

Shen Lang touched his nose, feeling that Zhu Qiqi's competitive spirit was a bit too much. What was there to compare about that? It wasn't like it lasted for seven days and seven nights.

But it must be said that although he was the one who was forced, how can it be said that he wasn't half-heartedly resisting?

After all, he was a man, and Bai Feifei was so beautiful.

“Then I’ll teach you,” Shen Lang said to Zhu Qiqi.

"No need," Zhu Qiqi said. "I have cultivation techniques and secret manuals. I must become stronger than Bai Feifei."

Shen Lang was surprised. Zhu Qiqi had never been interested in martial arts before, so how could she remember martial arts manuals? He asked, "What kind of martial arts do you want to practice? I can give you some advice."

“It’s a Taoist cultivation technique.” Zhu Qiqi said as she searched through the group chat files, but she didn’t know which technique was more powerful. Then a thought flashed through her mind: she didn’t know, but wasn’t there someone else who did?

Chapter 78 Huang Yaoshi: Why are you coming at me?

Zhu Qiqi grabbed Shen Lang's hand and rushed down from the attic.

Wang Lianhua was asking Lin Zhu more questions about Bai Feifei when she was interrupted.

"Come with me for a moment." Zhu Qiqi grabbed Lin Zhu's hand and was about to go up to the attic.

Lin Zhu was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was yet another person who mistook her for a woman.

Looking at Shen Lang again, this guy didn't seem to mind at all.

Wang Lianhua seemed completely indifferent.

Actually, Shen Lang was also a bit confused just now. He didn't know why Zhu Qiqi wanted to kick him out.

But now that I see her pulling Lin Zhu up, I understand.
