Chapter Index

    Before setting off for the Rootless Secret Realm, Sikong Wangxing believed that he would definitely come to the Rootless Secret Realm as well.

    Because he had said he would seize the rootless fruit for Sister Jiang Qing.

    Sikong Wangxing knew even better that Sister Jiang Qing was incredibly important to Lin Xun, perhaps even more important than his own life.

    Therefore, as early as when they were at the entrance of the Rootless Secret Realm, Sikong Wangxing had been quietly searching for Lin Xun’s figure.

    However, Sikong Wangxing did not find him.

    But when she felt a Divine Sense probing her, Sikong Wangxing felt a surge of joy in her heart.

    Sikong Wangxing immediately traced back toward that strand of Divine Sense.

    Yet, that Divine Sense quietly vanished without leaving a trace, as if it had never existed.

    During these days in the Rootless Secret Realm, Sikong Wangxing paid even more attention to every Loose Cultivator, but none of them were him.

    Until this afternoon, when this man arrived at Strange Dragon Mountain, that inexplicable feeling arose once again.

    Asking others, no one knew the identities of this man and woman.

    The suspicious nature of their identities further deepened the level of suspicion regarding Ri Dangwu.

    Finally, added to that was that pair of eyes that seemed to fear trouble and were somewhat lazy.

    In Sikong Wangxing’s heart, the suspicion that “Ri Dangwu is Lin Xun” skyrocketed.

    “But if this Cultivator really is him, then who is this woman beside him? And they seem to be very intimate.”

    Sikong Wangxing thought for a long time, but ultimately had no answer; Sikong Wangxing believed that Lin Xun would not take the initiative to chase after other women or have ambiguous relationships with them.

    Sikong Wangxing felt that perhaps her feelings were wrong, and this person was not actually Lin Xun.

    Especially just now, when Sikong Wangxing saw this Cultivator and that extremely beautiful woman embracing in public, her level of suspicion towards him dropped again.

    However, even though Sikong Wangxing felt that this man named Ri Dangwu definitely wasn’t him,

    the more she looked at this Loose Cultivator, the stronger that feeling in her heart became.

    Finally, Sikong Wangxing stepped forward, wanting to talk to him and ask.

    But she didn’t expect…

    In the middle of the crowd.

    As Sikong Wangxing watched this beautiful woman in the black dress bite him on the neck.

    In an instant.

    Lin Xun was stunned, Sikong Wangxing was stunned, and everyone around Lin Xun was stunned.

    They never expected that this girl would be so bold!

    Just as Lin Xun reacted and was about to push She Qiqi away, She Qiqi proactively let go and left Lin Xun’s embrace.

    In this way, it became She Qiqi who proactively separated, rather than Lin Xun rejecting her.

    Lin Xun found it even harder to explain.

    “Is there something this lady needs?”

    She Qiqi looked at Sikong Wangxing with a smile, her eyes playful, exuding the full aura of a primary wife.

    Lin Xun didn’t know where her primary wife aura came from.

    “I…”

    Sikong Wangxing lightly bit her lower lip.

    For Sikong Wangxing, she originally just wanted to ask about the other party’s Sect to test if this Cultivator was him.

    But now, it felt like she was trying to hit on someone else’s Dao Companion.

    For a moment, Sikong Wangxing didn’t know where to start, even feeling a sense of guilt.

    “Apologies, Miss.”

    Seeing Sikong Wangxing’s troubled look, Lin Xun hurriedly stepped forward.

    Lin Xun naturally wouldn’t let She Qiqi mess around; he grabbed her fair wrist, pulled her behind him, and then bowed to Sikong Wangxing.

    “My cousin is immature and likes to cause trouble. Her tone was a bit rude, please forgive her. I wonder what business you have with me, Miss?”

    If it weren’t for She Qiqi, if it weren’t for that bite just now, Lin Xun might have directly revealed his identity to Sikong Wangxing.

    In any case, Lin Xun felt that Wang Xing would definitely keep the secret for him.

    But now, his relationship with She Qiqi really couldn’t be explained clearly in a short time; it was better to keep it hidden for now.

    No! It’s best! It’s best if she doesn’t know ‘Ri Dangwu’ is me until we leave the Secret Realm!

    “It’s nothing,” Sikong Wangxing shook her head with a smile. “It’s just that Fellow Daoist looks a bit like a… a friend of mine. His name is… Diao Zhen Da, also a Loose Cultivator. I wonder if Fellow Daoist knows him?”

    “Apologies, among the people I know, there is no such person.”

    Lin Xun was secretly shocked.

    I was recognized just like that?

    That’s not right, I only glanced at her once.

    Could it be because of the Qingtian Xuannü Technique?

    No! No matter what! I absolutely cannot admit it!

    “I see.” Sikong Wangxing lowered her eyelids slightly and curtsied. “I have disturbed you, please forgive me, Fellow Daoist.”

    “You are too polite, Miss.”

    Sikong Wangxing gave a gentle smile and said no more, took one last look at Lin Xun, and then turned to leave.

    Watching Sikong Wangxing’s departing figure, Lin Xun also breathed a sigh of relief.

    “Is that Sikong Wangxing from Tianji City?” Only after Sikong Wangxing had walked far away did Zhang Sankuang dare to speak. “Rumors say that the Saintess of Tianji City, Sikong Wangxing, has exquisite temperament and appearance. ‘There is no wife like Sikong Wangxing’—this saying is indeed not false!”

    “Exactly! Tianji City is inherited through the Sikong family line, and Sikong Wangxing is also the only granddaughter of Sword Forging Valley. She could be said to be the wealthiest woman in the world!”

    Ge Laowang had a face full of wishful thinking.

    “If one could marry Sikong Wangxing, we would have to struggle for at least two thousand fewer years!”

    “I heard that next year is Miss Sikong’s Coming-of-Age Ceremony. Rumor has it that Miss Sikong will throw a silk ball, so maybe we…”

    “What the hell are you thinking? Tianji City clearly said it would be a martial arts tournament for her hand in marriage.”

    “A martial arts tournament? Wasn’t it a trial?”

    “Stop daydreaming, all of you. No matter which one it is, it’s impossible for you to be chosen! Just based on you guys? You can’t even beat me. Go back and practice your swordsmanship properly.” Yu Youyou really couldn’t listen anymore and cruelly shattered their daydreams.

    Lin Xun didn’t care about their bickering, but instead sent a mental transmission to She Qiqi: “Did you do that on purpose?”

    “I did it on purpose,” She Qiqi responded with a smile in his mind. “See, now you don’t dare to reveal your identity to your little lover and can only stay by my side, right?”

    Lin Xun took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to hang She Qiqi up and beat her:

    “She Qiqi, if you dare to mess with me again! Our cooperation is over. As for those medicinal herbs and methods to deal with the Heavenly Tribulation you mentioned, if I tie you up, I don’t believe the Demon Race World won’t send them to me!”

    “Hehe.”

    She Qiqi covered her mouth and chuckled, her pleasant laughter echoing in Lin Xun’s mind.

    “Lin Xun, if you tie me up, you really won’t get anything at all.”

    “What do you mean?”

    “Because…”

    She Qiqi gently stroked Lin Xun’s cheek, her smile sweet yet enchanting.

    “The people who want me dead the most are my Imperial Father and my brothers.”
