Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

As she spoke, Tong Yan seemed unable to hold back her tears, and she covered her mouth tightly to suppress her faint sobs.

Upon seeing this, Ding Xia was deeply moved.

He then bowed respectfully to the boy with the youthful face.

He then said, "Then, Master's wife, I'll go hide in the back mountain first."

"Um--"

The childlike face replied in a drawn-out voice.

-

After Ding Xia left.

within the room.

Tong Yan pushed away Chi Junlin, who was kissing her deeply, and said with a hint of annoyance, "Why do you like to tease people so much? He almost found out!"

"Really? I think you acted quite well."

Chi Junlin smiled and hugged Tong Yan again, kissing her passionately.

"Ugh...sizzle...sizzle..."

Seeing that Chi Junlin's hands were not behaving properly, he wanted to do something else.

Tong Yan quickly grabbed her hands, pleading, "No... Junlin... I need to go to the back mountain to see Ding Xia... If I don't go for too long, he'll get suspicious..."

"So what? He's just your apprentice. What does it have to do with us?"

Chi Junlin looked at her with a smile and said.

Tong Yan blushed deeply, recalling her embarrassing moment and wondering why she had become like this.

Seeing Chi Junlin whispering in his ear again, Tong Yan even pleaded, "Junlin, let me get dressed..."

Tonight... tonight you can do whatever you want, isn't that enough?

Seeing that even the once aloof and icy Sect Master Tongyan was begging in such a shameful manner, Chi Junlin had no choice but to let her go.

So he released her hands and said with a smile, "You said it yourself."

"Um……"

"Okay, then you go."

Chapter 86 The Cultivator, Little Liuli

Although Chi Junlin disliked Ding Xia very much, based on her long experience dealing with Ding Xia, she knew that using force against him would definitely not work.

The more you try to suppress him directly, the stronger his superpowers will resist.

Therefore, we must weaken him indirectly and slowly torment him.

This way, the struggle of the forces of destiny will not be provoked.

For example, taking away the female lead who originally surrounded Ding Xia, or issuing a wanted notice with a reward.

It now appears that Red King's tactics were absolutely effective.

Although she didn't have her subordinates personally arrest him during this period, the arrest warrants she issued made Ding Xia's life extremely difficult.

More importantly, Chi Junlin could indeed see through the doors and windows that Ding Xia's seven-colored luck had indeed been reduced.

Without the important female characters who would have had relationships with him, Ding Xia's luck has weakened considerably compared to when Chi Junlin first saw him.

The next step, naturally, is to press on and continue to diminish Ding Xia's luck, plunging him into an abyss of no return.

At this moment, Chi Junlin did not refuse Tong Yan's request to see Ding Xia, but whispered a few words in her ear and gave her some instructions.

Although Tong Yan found it strange, seeing that Chi Junlin really intended to let Ding Xia off the hook, she accepted her kindness.

He also felt a greater sense of gratitude towards Chi Junlin.

After Tong Yan left, Chi Junlin put on his clothes and walked out of the small courtyard.

After walking a few steps, I saw a small figure peeking furtively from behind a water tank not far ahead.

Chi Junlin chuckled and called out, "Liuli?"

"ah!"

Liuli was startled and poked her head out from behind the water vat, sticking her tongue out at Chi Junlin.

They seemed unaware of how they had been discovered.

Seeing her innocent and bewildered expression, Chi Junlin couldn't help but smile and asked gently, "What are you doing here?"

"I...I...I was just looking around..."

Liuli stammered and couldn't give a coherent answer.

"Then where are you going?"

"To...the kitchen?"

"What are you going to the kitchen for?"

"me……"

She was still stammering, unsure how to explain.

Chi Junlin smiled, until she was certain that she had met Ding Xia.

She probably wanted to get him something to eat, since no matter how much Liuli disliked Dingxia, the two were still senior and junior brothers who grew up together.

The little girl is kind-hearted and can't stand idly by.

Chi Junlin didn't expose her, and said to Liuli, "Then let's go, I'll go with you to the kitchen."

Liuli thought about it and didn't feel there was anything wrong with it.

He grunted in agreement and walked toward the kitchen with Chi Junlin.

However, when the two passed by the woodshed, Chi Junlin suddenly stopped and looked towards the haystack.

"What's wrong, my dear sister?"

Liuli showed a strange expression.

"There's someone hiding in the woodshed. Are they a disciple of your sect?"

Liuli found it strange and subconsciously said, "How could there be someone there? Ding... Anyway, no one would be hiding there at this time. Did you mishear me, Noble Sister?"

Upon hearing this, Chi Junlin frowned.

Chi Junlin now possesses extremely powerful internal energy and exceptional hearing; no one within ten steps can escape his keen eyesight.

So if she says there are people there, then there must be people there.

Seeing that Liuli didn't believe him, Chi Junlin stepped forward and simply opened the door to the woodshed.

Sure enough, there was a disheveled, filthy girl, looking like a beggar, hiding inside.

When Liuli saw it, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

The person in front of them was none other than Fu Ruiying, whom Ding Xia had brought back here to hide.

As the beloved daughter of Fu Wen, the former Minister of Rites, Fu Ruiying's background can be said to be just as pitiful as that of Yuan Zhaoji.

However, compared to the resilient and intelligent Zhao Ji, who possessed the talent to assist a king, Fu Ruiying was much more psychologically fragile.

Chi Junlin faced a terrifyingly powerful minister who ordered the extermination of his entire clan.

Fu Ruiying felt mostly fear.

Rather than revenge.

If we were to ask whether Fu Ruiying harbored any hatred in the days before she escaped the capital and after her family had been executed,

There must be some.

However, after Ding Xia led her on a long and uncertain journey, constantly on the run, they finally found themselves in dire straits.

Fu Ruiying's fear of Chi Junlin grew stronger with each passing day.

The longer she lived, the more deeply she came to understand the enormous chasm between herself and Chi Junlin.

Right now, she can forget about seeking revenge.

Even if Chi Junlin handed her a knife and held it to her own neck, she might not dare to swing it.

At this moment, Fu Ruiying's eyes were filled with terror.

My only thought was that the other party must not recognize me as a fugitive.

Do not hand her over to the authorities...

Unfortunately, Chi Junlin recognized the pitiful-looking girl in front of him at a glance.

It's not about looks, it's about luck.

Although Fu Ruiying's current appearance is far more miserable than when Chi Junlin once saw her from afar outside the imperial city.

But the cloud of fortune above their heads was inexplicably much larger than last time.

If Fu Ruiying was just an unknown minor supporting character last time...

Now, she's practically a leading lady.

Chi Junlin suddenly found it very interesting.

In other words, because Chi Junlin had eliminated all the female characters around Ding Xia during this period, and with no female characters available to drain his life force, his power of luck actually created a completely new female character!

This is so interesting!

It was so interesting that Chi Junlin didn't want to kill her at all, but rather wanted her to continue like this, to see if she could really become a new female lead.

However, although Chi Junlin knew Fu Ruiying, Fu Ruiying had never met Chi Junlin.

So she went along with it and pretended not to recognize Fu Ruiying.

Instead, she turned to Liuli and said, "You look quite pitiful. Are you a beggar who ran down from the mountain?"

Liuli shook her head and said, "I don't know either."

"Go get her something to eat."

Upon hearing what Chi Junlin said, Liuli went to the kitchen, found some leftover steamed buns from last night, and brought them to Fu Ruiying.

The steamed bun had been cold for a long time and had become dry and hard.

But Fu Ruiying still wolfed down her food, clearly having not eaten her fill in a long time.

Towards the end of the meal, he choked, pounding his chest and coughing violently.

"Pour her a bowl of water."

Chi Junlin then addressed Liuli.

Liuli responded and brought over a bowl of water, saying gently to Fu Ruiying, "Eat slowly, no one will take it from you."

Fu Ruiying drank the water and finally managed to swallow the steamed bun in her chest.

Then, he cautiously said to the two of them, "Th...thank you..."

Chi Junlin looked at her without saying a word.

Liuli replied, "No need to thank me. We cultivators have always been compassionate..."

Chi Junlin couldn't help but laugh, "You've even started cultivating? Recite a couple of Daoist scriptures for me?"

"I...I am!"

As Liuli spoke, she started arguing with Chi Junlin.

Fu Ruiying looked at Chi Junlin, who was now completely devoid of murderous intent and even had a very amiable expression, and couldn't help but reveal a complicated look in her eyes.

No one knew what she was thinking; she simply hugged the remaining steamed buns to her chest and silently lowered her head.

Chapter 87 Clouds Cast Shadows, Moon Shyly Embraces Its Beauty

After receiving help from Chi Junlin and Liuli, Fu Ruiying, who had been starving for several days on the road, was finally able to catch her breath.

However, she didn't answer any of Liuli's questions.

Helpless, Liuli didn't know what to do when faced with this outsider beggar who wasn't from her sect.
