"Master...?"
Zhu Wanning stared blankly at the stunning woman who suddenly appeared, even forgetting that she was still holding onto Lin Xiao's arm!
Seeing the intimacy between the two, Su i was naturally overjoyed and said with an ambiguous smile, "Alright, alright, how long are you two planning to be so lovey-dovey?"
"Master, it's not what you think..."
Zhu Wanning and Lin Xiao exchanged a glance, then quickly separated.
"Martial Uncle Su, did you say earlier that there was sothing you needed for?" Lin Xiao quickly tried to steer the conversation back to the original topic.
"Yes, indeed." Su i stepped forward and unhesitatingly took Lin Xiao's hand affectionately. "Co, dear nephew, let's talk about this inside."
"Yes, Martial Uncle!" Lin Xiao glanced at Zhu Wanning beside him and nodded reluctantly.
What on earth is Martial Uncle Su up to!?
Wait, doesn't this tiline an that particular plot is about to unfold?
....
....
Phoenix Caw Peak, Chairman's Inner Hall.
"Martial Nephew Lin, tell , when do you plan on marrying our Wanning?"
Just as Lin Xiao was settling down, he heard Su i's voice in front of him.
"This..." Lin Xiao shook inwardly, about to explain.
But before he could speak, a jade-like hand stopped him, covering his mouth.
"No need to explain. I've been there before." Su i squinted her eyes and said, "I can see everything between you and Wanning at a glance."
You've been there before? You, who have never been in a relationship, pretending to be married!
Lin Xiao cursed internally, but on the surface, he acted calm and collected. "In fact, Martial Uncle Su, given the current threats from the Demon Sect, I dare not consider personal matters at the mont."
"Oh, is that so?" Su i sneered. "I don't think it's that you dare not, but rather, you, young man, are in love with more than one woman, aren't you?"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly replied, "I made it very clear at the celebratory banquet! In my heart, there is only my Junior Sister Yurong! As for Wanning... it's just admiration!"
"PFFT."
"What a great 'just admiration'." Su i languidly shrugged her shoulders, her voice considerably gentler. "Alright, alright, dear nephew, what's wrong with a man being a little bit fickle? It's just the sacrifice of yourself to please a few more won who love you."
"What a profound view, Martial Uncle!" Lin Xiao couldn't help but blurt out.
No wonder she's the elder sister from the Hehuan Sect. She really is a friend indeed!
"Hmm?" Seeing Lin Xiao nodding, Su i paused, studied Lin Xiao for a second, then burst into laughter. "It seems that you, boy, really have several won in mind."
"Co on, let guess who they are." Su i moved closer with a sly smile, propped up Lin Xiao's handso face with her hand, lifted the corner of her lips teasingly. "Besides your Second Junior Sister Guo Yourong, I suspect your Third Junior Sister Chu Youwei, and Fourth Junior Sister Lu Yingying, are also on your list, right?"
Lin Xiao clenched his teeth but said nothing.
He had already lost his composure! The more he said, the more likely he would make a mistake!
"Hmm, your silence probably ans you admit it." As Su i squinted her eyes, her expression beca more suggestive. She leaned to Lin Xiao's ear and whispered, "Not just your three junior sisters, but also... your naive and cute Master Hongling, you want to have her too, right? Hmm?"
Seeing Lin Xiao's nervous look, Su i's smile grew triumphant. "Hahaha, Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao, indeed, you are a man who can defeat the Son of Destiny. When it cos to won, you have quite extensive interests!"
"Let calculate, including Wanning, your three junior sisters, and your Master... Wow! You, boy, are simultaneously in love with five won! Incredible!"
Watching Su i's self-satisfied deanor, Lin Xiao shook his head and murmured, "Your thought is petty, too petty."
"What is my dear nephew talking about!?" Su i frowned.
"No, nothing." Lin Xiao cleared his throat and said seriously, "As the hottest rising young talent of the Qinglan Sect, there is no need for Martial Uncle Su to worry about my personal love life. Instead, it would be better to focus more on the work."
"Oh, you cheeky boy." Once again, Su i affectionately took Lin Xiao's hand. "I don't care who you like the most, but you must marry Wanning first!"
"Only when the two of you, the Chief Disciples, beco a couple can Phoenix Caw Peak form a strong alliance with your Divine Phoenix Peak. This will allow you to control the future of the Qinglan Sect!"
She spoke with great montum, and her eyes were full of ambition.
Lin Xiao's heart pounded.
In an instant, his mind began to race, automatically projecting all the original background stories about Su i...
Being familiar with the original plot, he naturally knew what Su i ant.
The goal of this Saintess from the Hehuan Sect, who disguised herself and infiltrated the Qinglan Sect, was different from that of Yuanyi from the Sky Yin Demon Sect! From the very beginning, she never intended to overthrow the Qinglan Sect. On the contrary, she was more inclined towards the Righteous Path compared to the brutal killings by the Demon Sect.
Her real objective... was to ascend the throne of the Sect Leader of Qinglan Sect!
Ever since her beloved eldest apprentice, Jiang Yuan, was locked up in the Enlightennt Cliff, True Master Ziyun had been dispirited and despondent. Moreover, after Jiang Yuan left, Dragon Head Peak's younger generation had no successor. As a result, True Master Ziyun had publicly stated several tis that he wanted to pass on his position as Sect Leader!
And among the leaders of the other four peaks, Xiao Hongling, the strongest, was a free spirit and naturally despised the Sect Leader's position. Chisong of Red Cloud Peak, although experienced, was not skilled enough. His character was also unfit for any important role, and thus he was not favored by the Six Holy Beings.
