Chapter 52: Why Don't You Say You Like Him?

"Hack him to death! Hack him to death!"

Seeing Yin Ningyu suddenly erupt, Jun Tianling shouted excitedly: "Beat him up!!!"

"Look at what you've done, such good tea has been wasted."

Jiang Xun collected the teacup and teapot shards into his storage ring, then grabbed a piece of clothing to wipe the tea stains off the stone chair.

Afterward, he waved his hand to brush the tea leaves off his body.

"I didn't come here to gather intelligence this time; I just have a friend who entrusted me to ask about something."

Jiang Xun then looked at Yin Ningyu and smiled.

Seeing Jiang Xun's smile, Yin Ningyu was also stunned for a moment.

In that instant, she seemed to see the shadow of his former self on Jiang Xun's face.

"What matter?"

Yin Ningyu then asked with a cold face.

It was purely out of curiosity.

"Is your Baihua Sect's Supreme Elder, Tang Ying, currently here?"

Jiang Xun asked directly.

After all, the strength Yin Ningyu was displaying now was no longer something Tu Qing could contend with; regardless of whether Tang Ying was here or not, the result would be the same—a loss.

"Grandmaster? Why are you looking for Grandmaster?"

Yin Ningyu asked with a frown.

"It's not me, it's a friend."

Jiang Xun shook his head and smiled: "I came for this; anyway, since you don't intend to let me leave, what harm is there in telling me?"

"Grandmaster left the Baihua Sect a thousand years ago; I don't know where she is now."

Yin Ningyu did not hide it and said so directly.

"A thousand years ago?... You were already in the Baihua Sect a thousand years ago?"

Jiang Xun was stunned for a moment and asked; just how old must she be!

"... It was my Master who told me."

Yin Ningyu was speechless for a moment and said.

But she did not refute what Jiang Xun said: that she did not intend to let him leave.

She simply did not want to let Jiang Xun go!

Tu Qing, you little wench.

If you have the ability, come and snatch him!

Five hundred years ago, you snatched Jiang Xun away once.

Five hundred years later today, can you still snatch him away?

I refuse to believe I have no way to make him return to his former self.

Since your Lingerie-Sect is unwilling to manage him, I, Yin Ningyu, will manage him!

Damn it...

I wasted my deep affection on you, keeping myself pure for five hundred years.

Jiang Xun, you bastard.

You're living quite freely in the Lingerie-Sect!

Between Tu Qing and Gu Qing, and you're even giving public lectures?

Have you no shame?

Even my Baihua Sect's spy has crawled into your bed!

That's right, that spy of hers is Lin Qingwan.

After all, those things Tu Qing said were spoken privately to Jiang Xun in his small cabin; only Tu Qing and Jiang Xun knew about these matters, so how could they have leaked out?

Unless Lin Qingwan left a listening Formation in Jiang Xun's room.

Lin Qingwan truly hadn't expected that Jiang Xun would choose her for that public lecture.

But she had been lurking in the Lingerie-Sect for over a decade; she couldn't just let all her previous efforts go to waste, could she?

She had no choice but to crawl into Jiang Xun's bed.

Later, she discovered that Tu Qing and the various Peak Elders would always seek out Jiang Xun to discuss matters.

She suddenly felt that getting intelligence from Jiang Xun was also a good path.

Thus, she took the initiative to propose to Gu Qing that she become Jiang Xun's Maid.

At the time, Lin Qingwan absolutely never expected that she would obtain such intelligence—that the Lingerie-Sect was going to attack the Baihua Sect.

"A thousand years ago? That means Tang Ying disappeared after the Void Sect was destroyed."

Jiang Xun said to Jun Tianling.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Jun Tianling was also somewhat dejected and could no longer be bothered to let Yin Ningyu beat up Jiang Xun.

He hadn't expected that Tang Ying had actually left the Baihua Sect at that time.

"Stay here; if Tu Qing dares to come in seven days, I will make sure she never returns, and I will let you and your senior brothers be reunited."

Yin Ningyu said after answering Jiang Xun's question.

"If I can merge the Lingerie-Sect, it wouldn't be out of the question to let you manage the Lingerie-Sect then."

Hearing these words from Yin Ningyu, Jiang Xun thought of her favorability; Yin Ningyu indeed still had feelings for him.

"Don't misunderstand; it's just that you are more familiar with the Lingerie-Sect, and besides, you are very weak and easy to control."

Yin Ningyu noticed Jiang Xun's gaze and said with a half-smile.

For her, the Nascent Soul Early Stage is indeed very weak.

But her words were merely to cover up her own lack of confidence.

"I find your current appearance repulsive; I will find a way to change you back to how you were before. Before Tu Qing arrives, you shall stay in the Dungeon."

As Yin Ningyu spoke, she waved her hand, and many vines surged out from the surroundings, binding Jiang Xun's hands and feet.

"I can walk myself."

Seeing this, Jiang Xun said helplessly.

With the system present, he also knew that Yin Ningyu was just speaking harshly to cover up her true feelings.

In fact, before Jiang Xun took the initiative to come and gather intelligence, Yin Ningyu's favorability toward Jiang Xun was still at 90.

"With your old arms and legs, I'll help you walk."

As Yin Ningyu spoke, she waved her hand again, and these vines bound Jiang Xun and headed toward the back of Baihua Hall.

Along the way, the vines took turns, directly delivering Jiang Xun into the Dungeon...

This Dungeon was even equipped with a bed, a table, and chairs, and one could even bathe...

There was also a toilet.

"Yo, it seems she intended to keep you here as a pet from the very beginning."

Seeing this, Jun Tianling laughed until her whole body shook.

Seeing Jiang Xun suffer a setback right now made her even happier than seeing Tang Ying.

"I heard some women like to keep boy toys; what does that make you? An old toy? Hahahaha, what kind of taste does this Yin Ningyu have?"

Jun Tianling continued her output, laughing until she trembled like a flower in the wind.

"Laughing? You wait to dance; didn't you hear? She didn't intend to kill me, and she even wants to help me become young again."

Jiang Xun sneered.

Jun Tianling's laughter came to an abrupt halt.

What he said seemed to make sense...

At the same time.

"Master... please release the senior..."

Upon learning that Jiang Xun had been locked in the Dungeon, Hua Bairui stood beside Yin Ningyu and said with some worry.

"Bairui, he is a person from the Lingerie-Sect, and right now the Lingerie-Sect is preparing to attack my Baihua Sect. He came to scout the path; are you going to speak up for him?"

Yin Ningyu frowned as she looked at Hua Bairui.

She never expected that this disciple of hers would actually help Jiang Xun speak.

"Master, the senior was brought here by me. I told him it would be fine. The senior came because he trusted me. You locked him up, I..."

Hua Bairui's tone carried a slight sobbing sound.

"Silence!"

Yin Ningyu was furious and shouted loudly.

Her entire aura gave Hua Bairui a fright.

Yin Ningyu was too angry.

She was angry that Jiang Xun, now an old man, still had the ability to seduce women!

And he was seducing her own disciple!

"Master!" After Hua Bairui regained her composure, she bowed and knelt before Yin Ningyu: "Master, I beg you, the senior has saved my life, helped me, and even gave me a Top-grade Spirit Transformation Pill and a Youth-Preserving Pill; he has the grace of guiding me to the Dao. Please, let him go!"

Hua Bairui did not know the grudges and entanglements between Yin Ningyu and Jiang Xun, and she thought Yin Ningyu wanted to put Jiang Xun to death.

Unable to care about anything else, she begged Yin Ningyu for mercy repeatedly.

"If the senior meets with misfortune because of this disciple, I will blame myself for a lifetime! This, this... this might become my Heart Demon!"

"You really will say anything to save him; why don't you just say you like him?" Yin Ningyu sneered upon hearing this.

"I... I like him!"

Hua Bairui hesitated for a moment, then shouted.
