Chapter 7, Live Exposure Show

Lei Lei said: "They certainly will not admit it now"

... ...

Leilei pushed Wang and said "Go ahead."

Lei Lei immediately recalled the black and purple handprint on the handsome man from the inn: "Is Leng Ying's martial arts inferior to that of Master Wen?"

The young master truly does not know what to do, for in his impression, such behavior can only be exhibited by the enchantresses of the Thousand Moon Cave. When faced with them, he need not show any mercy, usually ending their lives with a single strike. However, this woman harbors no malice at all, and he simply cannot comprehend it. How could a proper young lady be so brazen as to tease a man

Leilei also knew not to overdo it, and she submerged back into the water, splashing: "Alright, alright, you go out and wait for a bit, I will get up and let you in a moment!"

Many people inquired, but Lei Lei had already known about this matter and was no longer interested. She stood up and left. The person was selling this information for 10,000 taels of silver, stating that the Longevity Fruit would be auctioned in Bishi City on the evening of the first day of the Lunar New Year. It was only early August now, and there was still a long way to go before the New Year.

Really? Surprising

Rei Lei said: "Such a treasure is likely to incite their greed"

He has left? Lei Lei probed: "Hey, Xiao Bai?"

Leilei shook her head

It turns out that she has also become accustomed to living here these days. The only downside is that the weather is getting cooler, making it increasingly inconvenient to take baths. Fortunately, she has been idly wandering around and unexpectedly discovered this wonderful place.

Leilei pushed again

Wang looked at everyone and said: "This matter is quite lengthy to explain. Are you aware of the medical genius Bu Yaoqian from the Eight Immortals' Mansion? He is indeed a good person, with exceptional medical skills, yet he lives a very frugal life"

It seemed that the gaze had stopped just below the neck ...? ... Lei Lei became alert, immediately coughed, and sank deeper into the water while holding her chest. Could it be that "Xiao Bai" has really turned into a wolf?

The pool is not large, and the surface of the water is steaming. Spring water gushes from the ground and is carried away by a long channel, keeping the water in the pool consistently clean and fresh. The bottom of the pool is faintly covered with many uniformly sized pebbles, clearly arranged by someone. Lei Lei does not concern herself with these details; this place is originally quite secluded, shielded by several tall rocks, and since it is night, she is not worried about anyone coming to sightsee.

Wang sighed, "He is a servant of the Leng family, which is acceptable, but when I sought to confront that servant, he had already been pierced through the heart and nailed to death by someone. Everyone says it was Leng Zhangmen who killed him to silence him, and even if Leng Zhangmen jumped into the Yellow River, he would not be able to clear his name.

Using open and aboveboard means to deal with the demonic sect will inevitably lead to losses, and Lei Lei is not surprised at all. Considering that she might also be related to that demon, Shangguan Qiuming, she does not dare to continue on this topic and shakes her head: "The three major sects are causing such a commotion over a longevity fruit."

... ...

The crowd increasingly despised her

... ...

Young master gritted his teeth: "You, get up for me!"

Seeing her dawdle, the young master could no longer hold back and raised his voice: "Get up!"

Lei Lei felt quite pleased, so she deliberately asked the picture book: "Aren't you getting up?"

The young master's lips twitched

Everyone says: "Who does not understand this principle"

Jade Neck

The more one tries to elaborate, the worse it becomes. The young master said no more and turned to leave

Fragrant shoulders

A beautiful woman bathing inadvertently allows a man to stumble upon her; this plot design is truly clichéd and increasingly ridiculous! Lei Lei, being perceptive, quickly came ashore, dressed herself, and lifted the lantern to turn around the rock. There stood the young master silently in the moonlight, habitually maintaining an upright and dignified posture, exuding an air of elegance and detachment, as if he were a figure in a painting. He appeared somewhat lonely, yet there was no trace of despondency.

Oh no, could it be that "Xiao Bai" has already begun to suspect that we are fabricating lies to make a living? Lei Lei, feeling vigilant, displayed a sincerity that even she might not dare to believe: "Really, I am not lying to you, I don't even know who I am. Lei Lei is just a name I casually mentioned. As soon as my identity is verified, I will leave immediately"

Wang was astonished: "You didn't know about such a significant matter as the longevity fruit?"

The beauty emerged from the bath, and the colors of spring gradually unfolded before his eyes. The young master finally realized something was amiss; his handsome face indeed began to flush again. He hurriedly averted his gaze, finding it increasingly difficult to maintain his composure: "There is no need... you... go down!"

Leilei would never be able to learn that poise in her lifetime, secretly feeling envious, she walked over and pushed him hard with her hand

Wang Congdao: "Of course not, but there is also the leader of the Dongshan Sect, Master Yan, who ascended the mountain together. If he joins forces with Master Wen, it would not be difficult to kill Master Leng."

Dongshan, Xisha, Nanhai, looking at these names, Lei Lei is even more suspicious of the intelligence of that guy in the R&D department: "In that case, the three of them are most likely the culprits"

Leilei hurriedly sat down and said, "Quickly, quickly, tell me."

As the spring colors faded, the young master finally returned to normal, realizing that his earlier behavior had been excessively rude. Blushing, he wanted to explain: "Actually... it was not..."

Mr. Bu is known as a medical enthusiast, having devoted his life to the study of medicine, and his words are certainly not false

... ...

Consciousness was slowly fading away. Before completely losing consciousness, the last thought in Lei Lei's mind was—damn it, I casually made up a story about being chased, and someone actually took it seriously!

Uncertain how many pairs of hands supported her, a man's voice echoed in her ears: "Hurry!"

Seeing him suddenly become bold, Lei Lei felt inexplicably puzzled

Leilei asked strangely: "What do you want?"

At that moment, a sound of footsteps approached from a distance

Wang nodded: "All three of them are close friends of Mr. Bu, who has a good reputation in the community. Mr. Bu is honest and straightforward, so it is not surprising that he would inform them about the matter of the longevity fruit."

With a handsome man beside her, Leilei felt no trace of sleepiness. In search of conversation, she said, "The Mid-Autumn Festival is here, and the moon is truly round..." Suddenly realizing that discussing the moon and stars with this person was a foolish endeavor, she quickly stopped herself, feeling disappointed: "Then I will sleep first"

Wang Congxiao: "How wise the leader He is, having discovered the oddities of this matter early on, naturally would not hastily condemn Master Leng. Who would have thought that a major incident would occur later."

The young master turned a blind eye: "Get up already!"

The sound of footsteps faded away

Leilei pondered quietly and casually asked, "The East Mountain, West Sand, and South Sea are all present, but why is there none for the North?"

Hanging the lanterns and removing her clothes, Lei Lei cautiously slid into the water along the sloping stone surface, instantly feeling a sense of ease throughout her body

Leilei hurriedly asked, "What is it?"

Leilei had already stepped one foot into the door when she heard the handsome man's call, and immediately retracted her foot: "What?"

Having finished speaking, she truly stood up slowly from the water

After a while, the young master continued to stare at her intently, his expression growing increasingly complex

This body should belong to an adult, with a well-developed figure, comparable to skin as smooth as fine jade, surpassing frost and snow. Soaked in warm spring water, it further reveals an alluring pink sheen. Lei Lei had been drooling over herself for half a day, and the feeling of comfort grew increasingly intense, causing her to feel drowsy.

Zhuangzi is built against the mountain, and surprisingly, there is a hot spring in the corner behind the residence.

Lei Lei suddenly said: "Since the longevity fruit is so good, why doesn't Mr. Bu eat it himself?"

The young master could not help but ask: "What are you doing?"

In the light, the face that had just returned to normal easily flushed red again, and the young master left without a word

Wang Congdao: "Half a year ago, on a night, Mr. Bu was murdered in his home."

It is rare for "Xiao Bai" to express concern, and Lei Lei felt a sense of pride as she watched that figure disappear. Just as she was about to return to her room to rest, she suddenly felt a chill at the back of her head, and then the scenery in front of her began to blur

At night, the bright moon hangs high, the ground in the courtyard is white, and the cold dew falls silently. Unbeknownst to me, more than ten days have passed. Everything in the village is as usual, and tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. The entire village is busy preparing for the celebration. During the day, everyone is occupied without rest, and by nightfall, they are so tired that they quickly burrow into their blankets.

The young master remained completely still, only looking at her with a puzzled expression

Even the three major sects must yield a little, let alone the smaller factions and sects

With a harsh tone, her previously muddled mind suddenly became clear. She instinctively straightened up and saw the young master standing by the pond's edge with a serious expression.

Longevity, the dream of emperors since ancient times, the temptation of living a century longer than others is something that few can resist. Lei Lei finally understands why everyone is willing to spend a fortune to learn its whereabouts: "That elixir of life must have been stolen by the murderer"

Turn around to enter the door

Wang shook his head: "The Xisha School's palm technique follows a vigorous path, and its mental method is unique; it cannot be imitated casually. Moreover, only Wen Ting has been able to practice the palm strength to such an extent that it can shatter a person's internal organs without breaking their ribs."

Leilei said: "There must be some benefits to killing him"

Having spoken, he no longer looked at her and left

The young master did not respond. Over the past half month, his good upbringing has been constantly challenged, and most of the time, he finds it difficult to vent his anger towards her. The prolonged suppression has caused his anger to soar to its peak at this moment, as this woman always intentionally or unintentionally touches his bottom line

Wang Congdao: "On that day, the disciples from the three sects were at the foot of the mountain, but only two sect leaders came down. The leader of the Nanhai Sect, Leng Ying, was notably absent. The disciples of the Nanhai Sect had no choice but to ascend the mountain to investigate, only to discover that he had died on the mountain path, having been killed by the unique palm technique of the Xisha Sect."

After a while, a voice floated from behind the rock: "Still not getting up."

Wang Congdao: "Indeed, it has only been half a month since Mr. Bu passed away, and suddenly there are rumors in the Nanhai faction about the longevity fruit being in the Leng family. Coincidentally, the last person to see Mr. Bu that night was also Leng Ying, the leader of the Leng faction. Thus, naturally, suspicion has fallen upon him."

Wang Cong came to life: "A person lives for a hundred years, and death is inevitable. It is said that the longevity fruit is quite extraordinary; if a person over seventy years old consumes it, they can be reborn and extend their life by another hundred years"

Our Baisheng Mountain Villa is known as the North Star of the Martial World, and with this Xiao Xiao Feng Ming knife in our possession, the demonic sect dares not act openly, allowing the rivers and lakes to enjoy peaceful days

It turns out that the young master has a slight obsession with cleanliness. At this moment, seeing his private bath being occupied by someone else, how could he not be infuriated, completely disregarding the seriousness of this command

Indeed! Wang clapped his hands. Nowadays, the leader Yan has repeatedly clarified that at that time, the three individuals indeed had a disagreement in their words. In a fit of anger, the leader Leng left first, and the other two had no choice but to descend the mountain. However, the leader Wen fell behind under the pretext of something, implying his suspicion towards the leader Wen. The leader Wen stubbornly denied it, but the injuries on the leader Leng were still present, clearly inflicted by the Xisha Sect's palm technique. The new leader of the Nanhai Sect, Leng Shengyin, has repeatedly sought revenge for his father, but fortunately, Alliance Leader He intervened. It seems that the enmity between the Nanhai Sect and the Xisha Sect has been established.

According to the plan, Lei Lei quietly slipped out of the room

There was no need for her to remind him; the young master had already turned to leave. However, a glance from the corner of his eye caused him to freeze in place, his expression first one of surprise, followed by a look of contemplation as he gazed at her.

Leilei recalled the words spoken by the young master and began to doubt: "Knowing full well that killing Master Leng would bring a multitude of troubles, how could Master Wen possibly employ a unique martial art? Could it be that someone else is framing him? For instance, the Demon Sect?"

The young master suddenly called out to her: "You"

So outdated! Everyone looked at her with disdain, and even Aunt Hong, who was busy in the kitchen, knew about this matter

chest

Lei Lei busily asked, "Who released that news?"

A look of hesitation appeared on the handsome face, and the young master quickly averted his gaze: "It is fine, you may stay here at ease." After a pause, he added: "Do not go out alone again in the evening."

Little White Little White

So it turns out, Lei Lei pondered for a moment and said: "It is very likely that Master Leng has been framed. Although he was the last person to see Old Master Zhu that night, others could have quietly returned after he left to commit the murder and steal the longevity fruit. Moreover, spreading the news about the longevity fruit in the Leng family could be accomplished by bribing the servants. Then that person could kill him and frame Master Leng for it"

The crowd also sighed

It seems that Master Leng was truly wronged back then

Could it really be Wen Ting? Of course, he would never admit to such a thing. The dignified leader of the Nanhai Sect has died unjustly; everyone knows how the alliance leader would deal with the murderer. People are inherently afraid of death

The young master did not answer, but looked at her for a while, and suddenly asked: "Have you really lost your memory?"

Leilei is speechless

The crowd changes color

Brother does not want money, younger brother does not want life! Lei Lei is puzzled: "What is the use of the longevity fruit?"

Indeed not

According to his brother Bu Yaoming, it was because of a treasure called the Everlasting Fruit. Wang Congdi said softly, "Mr. Bu mentioned it to his brother before he was killed, but when sorting through Mr. Bu's belongings, this item was not found."

Absolutely true

Wang Congdao: "However, there are still quite a few people who are trying every possible means to inquire about its whereabouts. It is said that the longevity fruit has fallen into the hands of a mysterious individual, and it is expected to be auctioned off in a few days!"

Leilei was both embarrassed and surprised: "Why did you come so late?"

Upon hearing Lei Lei's question, everyone was taken aback. Although they were not keen on her assistance with tasks, engaging in conversation was still acceptable. Moreover, this woman was unlike the other maids and servants who constantly spoke of their husbands and trivial matters. She often joined in on lively discussions and inquired about interesting tales from the world, thus they did not reject her presence.

Oh, seeing a woman bathing, and yet the reaction is so calm. The men here are quite open-minded, or is this scene just lacking in shock value and allure? Lei Lei lowered her head to look at her own body, then raised her face to look at him, blinking awkwardly and saying, "This... isn't good, is it?"

Wang Congdao: "The three major sects have always maintained a good relationship. With this incident occurring, it is inevitable that they will harbor mutual suspicions. Therefore, the three leaders secretly arranged to meet at the top of Mount Hua to discuss this matter openly and clarify the situation."

At this point, Lei Lei finally understood the status of the Xiao Xiao Feng Ming Dao, feeling a deep respect in her heart. She began to inquire about another important matter: "What is the situation with the Qian Yue Cave?"

Someone snorted coldly: "The master of Legend Valley, Fu Lou, is ruthless and merciless. Not only did he abandon the righteous path to join the demonic sect, but he also ruthlessly killed his own master and forcibly married his master's wife."

He is clearly a shy young man, pretending to be mature. When Lei Lei arrived, she playfully intended to tease him, almost commanding, "Come on, give this young lady a smile." However, the young man simply showcased his talent for ignoring her, walking straight ahead in silence. With the renowned name of the Xiao Xiao Feng Ming knife echoing throughout the land, it is not surprising for him to encounter girls who admire him, but who would dare to joke with him like this

Thinking of "Xiao Bai" blushing, she simply maliciously raised her face and arched her eyebrows at him: "Alright, I will get up! Get up!"

Originally, the investigation was focused on the death of the old man known as "Bu Yao Qian" and the whereabouts of the longevity fruit. However, with this incident arising, there is now a need to emphasize the investigation into the cause of the death of the cold front sect leader. No wonder Alliance Leader He Taiping is so busy!

Lei Lei gave up on her efforts and stifled a laugh: "Your standing posture is too perfect; let me see if I can push you down." She deliberately emphasized the words "push you down."

The young master hesitated for a long time and said: "Why do you want to ... ... " He paused.

Wang looked around and whispered, "This must start with the Demon Sect from back in the day. One hundred years ago, the leader of the Demon Sect, Nan Xinghe, rampaged through the martial world, and was later eliminated through a scheme devised by the leader of the Martial Alliance in conjunction with various major sects, dying at the hands of the ancestral weapon, the Phoenix Cry Blade, wielded by Xiao Min of the Xiao family. After Nan Xinghe's death, the Demon Sect suffered a severe blow to its vitality, and from then on, it split into two factions: the Thousand Moon Cave and the Legendary Valley."

Wang smiled and said: "You may not be aware, but it is said that while the longevity fruit is indeed good, if consumed before reaching the age of seventy, it will only strengthen the body and serve no other purpose. Mr. Bu is not yet sixty."

Leighton felt defeated and helpless: "Alright, I will get up. Are you going to..."

Everyone was astonished: "Is it true?"

Leilei is also a bit annoyed. There is no sign indicating who it belongs to, so how am I supposed to know it's yours? You inexplicably came over and saw the girl naked, and now you even force her to get out of the water in front of you? Hmph, if she has to get up, I don't mind; after all, this body isn't mine. I'm just afraid that you, big brother, won't be able to handle it

... ...

Only then did Lei Lei realize that she was already standing outside her room, and she couldn't help but feel regret: "So soon!"

Leilei became addicted to teasing, and Daler chased after her, saying: "Hey, aren't you going in to wash up?"

Standing like a pine tree embodies this quality, an air of elegance! Maintaining composure at all times and in all places, how many training sessions would it take for a person to reach such a state? No wonder it cultivates a rigid demeanor.

Wang Congdao: "Not only the young lady, everyone thinks this way. Mr. Bu's martial arts were not lacking, yet he died under the ordinary external family's palm strength. It should have been someone he trusted greatly who struck when he was completely unguarded. Coincidentally, that night, only three people had seen him: Yan Wenda, the leader of the Dongshan Sect, Wen Ting, the leader of the Xisha Sect, and Leng Ying, the leader of the Nanhai Sect"

Playing is ultimately just playing. No matter how strong Lei Lei's psychological quality is, she managed to hold the scene together, but at this moment, being watched by him for so long, she couldn't help but feel her heart race, looking at him innocently—do you think this is a good time to explain

At last, he came to a stop: "We have arrived."

This is unknown!

What people in the martial world value is the word "righteousness," Lei Lei sighed softly: "And then?"

Legendary Valley?

Lei Lei opened her eyes warily, and before she could react further, she heard someone gasp in surprise: "Who!"

Lei Lei nodded, and the name was called "No Money," which of course indicated poverty

Wang Congdao said, "That may be the case, but the master of Qianyue Cave, Shangguan Qiuyue, is even more cunning. The old master has a principle of not harming women, yet he intentionally sends those enchantresses to scheme against him, resulting in the old master's poisoning and death. Therefore, you must never mention the words 'Qianyue Cave' in front of Steward Zhao"

Leilei quickly understood and nodded repeatedly: "I will get it for you right away, right away."
