84: Madam was there last night too?

But as those continuously teasing fingers brushed past, Xu Xi also felt extremely uncomfortable, enduring it constantly. Even his originally pale complexion turned flushed amidst the teasing.

“Ugh...”

“I think, Elder Tang, you performed even better.”

“Although my flood discharge work was excellent, your ability to flush out the floodwaters left me thoroughly impressed.”

“My long spear simply couldn't seal the cave.”

“Of course, the performances of the rest of you were also very good.”

“Especially you, my dear Xue Qing, your King’s Treasury. I never expected you to move it into my room.”

“Splendid!”

Taking the initiative to concede, Xu Xi was naturally full of admiration for Tang Wan’s various displays.

Of course, Xu Xi also praised the performances of the others without reservation.

“Good that you know.”

“This time we won. Remember, from now on, we are the bosses. You all better humble yourselves!”

Leveraging Tang Wan’s power, Ling Ning霜 finally stood up completely, like a serf turning over to sing.

Because, in Ling Ning霜’s heart, Tang Wan winning was equivalent to her winning.

They were all from the Purple Cloud Sect, so didn't that mean Ling Ning霜 also won?

At this moment, Ling Ning霜 didn't feel in the slightest that they had simply overwhelmed Xu Xi by relying on their numerical advantage.

“Mm, everything you said is correct.”

“You all chat slowly, I’m leaving first. I still have some matters to attend to.”

Limiting his way out, adjusting his vital energy, Xu Xi had no desire to continue the struggle.

The risk here was simply too great. Even when facing Zheng Dayi, Xu Xi’s sense of life and death wasn't as strong as it was while staying in the room.

This feeling of both pain and pleasure, wildly hovering on the edge of courting death, was absolutely different from that feeling of extreme near-death.

And Xu Xi would rather face extreme death.

A true warrior dares to face dripping blood, but apparently, Xu Xi was not a warrior, but merely a scoundrel.

He immediately went out, then took a pill. Xu Xi’s pale complexion improved significantly, but the decline was still evident.

Along the way, the surrounding sect disciples who saw Xu Xi’s dejected state also expressed surprise.

He had been in the limelight these past few days, so he should have been radiant. Why did he seem a bit fatigued?

Facing the strange gazes of the crowd, Xu Xi could only quicken his pace, bowing his head and rushing to the sect’s main hall.

At this time, Xia Junling was in the main hall, frantically dealing with numerous miscellaneous sect affairs.

Especially with the impending opening of the Juefeng Secret Realm, many sects from various states were gathering in Youzhou, which greatly troubled Xia Junling.

It was not an easy task to get along well with these sects, let alone that the Xuanjian Sect was currently without a leader.

“Madam, I have something to report.”

Entering the main hall, after the guards’ report, Xu Xi went inside and immediately saw the haggard Xia Junling sitting on a chair, and he couldn’t help but feel a little heartache.

No matter what, she was his, Xu Xi’s, woman.

As he spoke, Xu Xi quickly stepped forward, his rogue, perverted hand couldn't help but tenderly touch Xia Junling’s pretty face, offering “loving” care.

“So you finally decided to come over~”

“Did you have a good time last night?”

Looking at Xu Xi with a tired expression, when she spoke, a few blushes appeared on Xia Junling’s haggard face, as if recalling the alluring scene she had witnessed last night.

“Ah?”

“Was Madam also there last night?”

“Could it be that you watched the live broadcast again?”

“No, do all of you with high cultivation have such strange fetishes?”

“Tang Wan is like this, and Madam, you are also like this!”

Hearing Xia Junling’s words, Xu Xi sighed helplessly. He never thought that these people with higher cultivation than others would actually have such a special fetish.

“No, when my strength increases, I also want to watch a live broadcast!”

“Since Xuan Yuan Continent doesn't have live streaming software, I’ll just have to use my divine sense to investigate.”

Silently, such a perverse thought arose in his heart. Xu Xi’s imagination was quite vivid.

“What did you say you came to see me about just now?”

However, with Xu Xi’s mention, Xia Junling, instead, felt embarrassed to continue. Changing the subject, she actively inquired about the matter Xu Xi was about to report.

“Oh, that.”

“It’s about some important internal affairs of our sect.”

“The Hall of Offerings is colluding with other sects. Here is the evidence. When I went out to handle some matters a while ago, I happened to be in the Tingfeng Valley area. The Thin Horse Gate there is a pawn of the Hall of Offerings. I personally experienced this incident, and this is the record stone.”

Seeing Xia Junling change the subject, Xu Xi also knew when to stop and immediately threw out the words he had prepared.

Subsequently, a record stone appeared in his hand and was handed over to Xia Junling.

However, when their hands touched, Xu Xi inevitably rubbed Xia Junling’s palm.

Hmm, it was ticklish, Xia Junling had a slight reaction... Not far from the main hall of the sect, there were still sect disciples patrolling, so Xu Xi couldn't directly request to engage in battle with Xia Junling.

He could only resort to small actions, like creating ambiguity, which Xu Xi, this scumbag, loved the most.

“What!”

“How dare they be so outrageous!”

“Although my Xuanjian Sect is not what it once was, it is certainly not something a mere Thin Horse Gate can betray.”

“Good birds choose their trees to perch?”

“Then I will let them know what it means to kill a chicken to warn the monkeys!”

Upon hearing this, Xia Junling, who had been engrossed in Xu Xi’s intimate gestures, suddenly turned cold, a murderous intent appearing on her face.

Xia Junling would not let go of anyone who wanted to destroy the Xuanjian Sect.

Even if the Hall of Offerings wanted to interfere, it would be useless!

Immediately, the idea of killing a chicken to warn the monkeys arose. The deaths of the Second Elder and Third Elder were not enough to alert the Xuanjian Sect members to what loyalty meant.

“I will hand this matter over to Elder Zhuge. If you wish to assist, I can also have Elder Zhuge handle it with you. What do you think?”

Having already formed a plan in her mind, Xia Junling knew that delays were not an option; she would act immediately.

And the most suitable person to handle this matter was Zhuge Zhengwo.

Dedicated solely to the Xuanjian Sect and strictly adhering to the rules, Zhuge Zhengwo had always been the first choice for handling such matters.

“There’s no need to trouble Elder Zhuge. Madam only needs to inform Law Enforcement Peak and let me take charge of this matter.”

“It’s not as if there aren’t such regulations. If Law Enforcement Peak has too many duties, it can be handed over to other capable disciples to enforce the law on their behalf. I believe Elder Zhuge wouldn’t find any fault with that.”

Following Xia Junling’s method was the safest, but Xu Xi obviously wouldn't let Zhuge Zhengwo handle this matter.

Because Xu Xi knew that Wang Hengtian must have already obtained some small leverage against him.

If Wang Hengtian exposed it to Zhuge Zhengwo, although it wouldn't cause too much trouble, Xu Xi didn't want to see even the smallest probability of such a thing happening.

For the sake of safety, Xu Xi decided to personally send Wang Hengtian and those from the Hall of Offerings to the Yellow Springs Road.
