179: Chapter 181 Ji Xiu's plans were disrupted again by Lin Kuang.

"Besides, I can even handle you! Handling her will be a piece of cake, right?"

"Hmm? What do you mean 'even me'? Am I that difficult to handle?" Yu Xiaotang retorted, unconvinced.

"Did staying up late with me last night make you stupid? That was a compliment, saying you're hard to win over, understand? It means you're excellent!" Lin Kuang shook his head and turned to continue his journey forward.

"That way of complimenting someone doesn't seem right, does it?" Yu Xiaotang stood rooted to the spot, biting her finger. The environment is bad? Too many people? Then shouldn't a private environment be created?

"Sigh, Lin Kuang... you say..."

Yu Xiaotang wanted to say something more, but when she turned her head, she found that Lin Kuang had already disappeared.

"Huh? Where is he? I'm talking to you about something important..."

After the Spiritual Vein matter was resolved, Lin Kuang had already set off for Maple Leaf City...

...

Inside a secret room of the Yin Yang Pavilion.

A male Cultivator wearing a strange robe that was white on the left and black on the right stood over two meters tall.

Even more bizarrely, his face was split down the middle, half male and half female. He was currently kneeling before Pavilion Master Ji Xiu.

He tremblingly reported to Pavilion Master Ji Xiu: "Pavilion Master, the plan to secretly mine the Spiritual Vein and use it to train new Yin Yang Pavilion super Cultivators might not work!"

"Previously, to mine the Spiritual Vein, we didn't obtain the Dynasty's approval, and the forged documents were discovered!"

"Now the Cultivation Alliance is also getting involved in this matter. This plan probably won't work anymore!"

Pavilion Master Ji Xiu picked up a piece of smoke-skin refined from the... hair... of a hundred young girls, sniffed it, and then slowly spoke.

"Is there someone to take the fall for this?"

"The matter has already been settled. We bribed some Loose Cultivators to take the blame for us!"

"Are these Loose Cultivators reliable?"

"Reliable. Their families are all in our hands!"

"Also, this matter seems to involve the Sword Sect! I heard it was first discovered by the Disciple of the Sword Sect's Fairy Pei!"

"Pei Yuhan?" Upon hearing this name, Pavilion Master Ji Xiu suddenly felt the item in his hand was no longer fragrant. He licked his lips and said, "If it weren't for Ye Linyuan being in secluded cultivation, she would have long been mine!"

"Yes, yes, yes. Only Fairy Pei is worthy of Pavilion Master Ji; other women are not worthy..."

Pavilion Master Ji Xiu frowned and said with dissatisfaction, "Stop flattering me. How are things with Ji Feng?"

"Ji Feng's matter is a bit difficult to handle. He'll have to be locked up for at least three months. After all, the female Cultivator he slept with is the Thirteenth Princess of the Dynasty. Although she was abandoned long ago, she is still a princess!"

"Moreover, he didn't clean up after himself; the evidence clearly exists!"

"Pavilion Master, I heard that the previous Saint... Demon Ship incident was also done by Fairy Pei's... Disciples in cooperation with the Cultivation Alliance..." The Cultivator kneeling on the ground said hesitantly.

"Hmm? The Sword Sect again! Pei Yuhan's Disciples again!" Pavilion Master Ji Xiu laughed disdainfully. "Without Ye Linyuan, their Sword Sect is nothing!"

"Handle Ji Feng's matter properly. With his personality, he'll cause trouble sooner or later!"

"Letting it blow up now will give him a lesson!"

"Let him stay locked up for three months. I'll arrange major tasks for him in the future, lest he ruins them again because of his lust!"

"By the way, what did Xia Qianzhen say? I remember she really wanted to join our Yin Yang Pavilion before. How did your talk go?"

"This... this!" The male Cultivator began to stutter. This was already the third piece of bad news, and he didn't dare to reply to the Pavilion Master.

"Speak! Do you think if you don't say it, no one else will?" Pavilion Master Ji Xiu could tell from his expression that the talk hadn't gone well.

"When we went to find her earlier, we found that she had changed!"

"We could even see a smile on her face. We've visited her seven or eight times over the last few years, and this was the first time we saw her smile!"

"Moreover, there was an additional male doll in her hands!"

"We originally thought she was in a good mood and wanted to recruit her, but she seems to have suddenly lost interest in the Yin Yang Pavilion! Except for the doll in her hand, she doesn't care about anything else!"

"A while later, when we approached her again, she was very impatient and kicked us out!"

"A few days later, when we went to find her again, before we could even speak, she used Spatial Power to bury us directly into the ground!"

"Before we left, she even warned us that if we came again, she would bury our entire bodies!"

Pavilion Master Ji Xiu listened for a while, gritted his teeth, threw away the smoke-skin, and said angrily, "Wasn't everything agreed upon before? How could she change just like that!"

"I only valued her Holy Beast Bloodline and Spatial Power to make her a useful pawn for us!"

"Forget it, just a little girl. Why do I always feel like someone has been obstructing me? Could it be that something went wrong with the constellations?"

"Uh, Pavilion Master, should I find a Constellation Master to read your fortune and solve your problems?" The subordinate offered some advice.

Pavilion Master Ji Xiu glared at his subordinate. "Is your brain broken? What use is fortune-telling? Find me a few girls to play with!"

"Besides, does our Yin Yang Pavilion need fortune-telling to do things?"

"Go back quickly and notify A-Tong in Maple Leaf City. Have him take action immediately; our plan to capture the Sacred Beast cannot be delayed!"

"Additionally, go to the Young Pavilion Master's place to check on the new Cultivation Technique. What stage is it at now, and how many people must be sacrificed to perform it once!"

"Yes! Pavilion Elder!" After making a gesture, the male Cultivator turned into a puddle of mud, merged into the ground, and disappeared.

"Fortune-telling? Hahaha! I, Pavilion Master Ji Xiu, only believe in myself. My fate is determined by me, not by heaven!" After Pavilion Master Ji Xiu spoke, he snapped his fingers, and a secret door opened.

Inside the secret door, a purple-haired woman was fixed to a cross by three streaks of Profound Qi. She was covered in injuries, and blood stained the floor.

"What? The dignified Saintess of the Heavenly Dao Alliance is in such a wretched state?" Pavilion Master Ji Xiu laughed evilly as he looked at the Saintess of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, one of the six major sects, who had become his toy.

He then took off his outer coat and slowly walked over.

...

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Xiao Rou said as she watched Lin Kuang eating the roasted meat.

"Delicious, delicious!" Before Lin Kuang could speak, Yu Xiaotang chimed in. Holding a special sauce in her right hand and a chicken leg in her left, she said excitedly.

Lin Kuang looked at Yu Xiaotang, who was eating like a starved ghost reincarnated, sighed softly, and shook his head.

"What's wrong? Is it not good?" Seeing Lin Kuang shake his head, Xiao Rou thought she hadn't done a good job.

"No! It's just that there's a glutton here; I'm afraid you haven't made enough!" Lin Kuang pinched Yu Xiaotang's cheek.

"What? You think I eat too much?" Yu Xiaotang rolled her eyes at Lin Kuang and said dissatisfiedly, "Even if I eat a lot, I'm not eating yours! Isn't that right, Xiao Rou?"

"Uh..." Xiao Rou didn't know how to respond. She scratched her cheek and said, "If Sister Xiao Tang likes to eat, I'll just make a bit more!"

"See! You're the stingy one!" Hearing Xiao Rou's reply, Yu Xiaotang straightened her back and glanced at Lin Kuang.
