456: Stay next door

“I wonder who this is…” Tang Sirui slightly narrowed his eyes, fixing his gaze on Chu Yinyao’s figure. Deep within his eyes, a hint of… flashed uncontrollably.

“Oh, her? She is…” Chen Xuan was about to explain, but at that moment, Chu Yinyao’s immortal spirit transmission entered his ears: “Don’t reveal my identity!”

Chen Xuan’s heart trembled, and he immediately stopped speaking.

“What, could it be that this Young Miss has a special identity that makes it inconvenient for you to reveal, Tang Brother?” Tang Sirui’s lips curved slightly as he looked at Chen Xuan with a half-smile and asked.

“That’s not it.”

“To be honest, she is an escaped criminal from the Feixian Sect. Her cultivation is unfathomable, having already reached the Undergoing Tribulation stage. I met her by a very accidental chance, and then we journeyed together.”

Upon hearing this, Tang Sirui couldn’t help but be slightly moved. Undergoing Tribulation cultivators were rare, especially a female one.

However, he quickly regained his composure, smiling as he cupped his hands towards Chu Yinyao and said, “So that’s how it is. May I know your esteemed name, young lady?”

“Cough, cough, Tang Brother, you can just call her Miss Yin.”

“Miss Yin? Alright, welcome to my humble abode! Here, you can treat this place as your own home. If you need anything, just come to me!” Tang Sirui said forcefully.

“Good, then find me an absolutely safe place right now. I just killed many people and need to go into seclusion for a night.” Chu Yinyao’s tone was cold.

“Absolutely safe?”

“What, you don’t even have such a simple condition?!”

“How could that be! It’s just that an absolutely safe place here…”

“Stop playing dumb, speak your mind!”

“Alas, here, the only absolutely safe place is within my courtyard. It’s just that I don’t know if Miss Yin is willing to condescend…” Tang Sirui feigned a sigh, his gaze lingering on Rou Wu and Chu Yinyao, his eyes filled with greed.

“Alright then, lead the way.”

Chu Yinyao agreed immediately, which made Tang Sirui look at Chen Xuan in surprise.

‘So you haven’t yet… Ah, good, good, good! Then this matter just became interesting!’

Soon, Tang Sirui led the three to his courtyard and then instructed, “Miss Yin, please go in. There are Restrictions set up inside that can resist external prying. As long as you are in the courtyard, it is absolutely safe. Once inside, you can go to any room except the master bedroom!”

Chu Yinyao nodded and walked into the courtyard.

“Qing Wu, it wasn’t easy for you to revive all the way here. Go inside and calm down first. After I’ve entertained Chen Xuan, I’ll tell you what’s been happening around me recently.”

Rou Wu nodded and also walked in without speaking.

Now, outside the courtyard, only Tang Sirui and Chen Xuan remained.

“Tang Brother, you two have had a hard journey. Come, I’ll take you to the Tang Sect’s reception hall to rest. I’ll have the servants prepare some wine and dishes right away.”

Chen Xuan smiled upon hearing this: “Tang Brother, then I’ll trouble you.”

…

Soon, Tang Sirui settled Chen Xuan, and then he returned to his small courtyard with some spirit wine and Yao Beast meat at the fastest speed he had ever achieved in his life.

“Sorry for making you wait.”

“It’s fine, you don’t have to be polite.” Rou Wu said indifferently.

“Hmm, Qing Wu, you haven’t changed at all. You’re still so understanding.” Tang Sirui chuckled.

“Where’s Chen Xuan? Why don’t I see him?” Chu Yinyao suddenly asked.

“Him? That kid, being new here, as soon as he arrived, he asked me if there was a place to drink flower wine. I was worn down by him, so I had no choice but to take him there. So today… he probably can’t come.”

Upon hearing this, the coldness on Chu Yinyao’s face deepened.

She hadn’t expected this beast in front of her to dare arrange her beloved Chen Xuan into such a place. If it weren’t for her grand plan, she would want to take a knife and hack him to death right now.

And when Tang Sirui saw the coldness on Chu Yinyao’s face, his heart filled with joy.

What he hoped for was to make this Miss Yin feel disgusted with Chen Xuan! Only then could he… Hehehe!

“Alright, alright, let’s not talk about him. Let’s just eat!” Tang Sirui finished speaking and was the first to pick up his chopsticks.

“No need, I’d better go into seclusion first.”

Chu Yinyao left with this one sentence and went to the room next to Tang Sirui’s. Tang Sirui’s face lit up with joy at the sight.

“Qing Wu, then us…”

“I’ll pass too. I don’t have much appetite today, and I also need to rest.”

“Okay, then you go to my room…”

“I’ll stay with Aunt Yin… Sister Yin tonight. If there’s nothing important, you’d better not disturb me.” Rou Wu finished speaking and also left.

She was a bit confused by Chen Xuan and Chu Yinyao’s actions. With their strength, they could easily… Wait!

Could it be, could it be because she… reminded Chen Xuan, and then he…??!!

“Impossible! Aunt Yin is very good to me, she will definitely protect me! They’re not making a move now, maybe Chen Xuan is considering Aunt Yin!”

Thinking of this, Rou Wu shook her head and walked into Chu Yinyao’s room.

“Aunt Yin~ What’s wrong with you today? Why have you been so cold from beginning to end? It doesn’t match your previous gentle demeanor at all!”

Upon entering the room, Rou Wu hugged Chu Yinyao’s arm and acted spoiled.

She didn’t know why, but she really liked doing this, even with Bi Xiao.

Chu Yinyao heard this, clenched her fists, then took out a seed and threw it into the flowerpot in the room. The next moment, the seed immediately sprouted, and then Chen Xuan’s figure slowly emerged.

“Chen Xuan? Why are you acting like a thief! Wouldn’t it be better to just come in openly?” Seeing Chen Xuan appear, Rou Wu couldn’t help but complain.

“Shh! I’m doing this to protect our safety!” Chen Xuan said with a smile.

“Oh, please, with him, he’s no match for me and Aunt Yin, and he says he’s protecting our safety!” Rou Wu said coquettishly.

“Uh, actually, I missed you two.”

“Alright, you win.” Rou Wu shrugged helplessly.

“However, the current Tang Sirui’s temperament has changed so quickly, it’s almost to the point where one can’t recognize his original appearance at all! He actually secretly put… into the wine and meat he provided for you to enjoy just now,” Chen Xuan complained.

Although the character in the original work wasn’t a very good person, he wasn’t this bad. It seems his appearance has changed too many trajectories.

And when Rou Wu heard Chen Xuan’s words, her delicate face was instantly covered by a layer of frost, as cold as ice.

Now, facing the current Tang Sirui, not only did her heart not stir at all, but her hatred for him grew even stronger.

“Enough! He doesn’t deserve to use that name at all! Moreover, we are here on important business, so don’t talk about irrelevant matters here!” Chu Yinyao interrupted their conversation.
