Chapter 10: Damn, it’s all background!

The young man in the distance frowned and walked over.

"Huang Yiyi, what's going on?"

Seeing the young man, Huang Yiyi quickly hugged his arm and said aggrievedly, "Liu *Shixiong*, he is Li Yun. I don't know where he heard that you brought me to the Inner Sect, and he actually followed. He's just delusional; it really has nothing to do with me!"

Liu Ningkong's gaze swept towards Li Yun, and he asked with a gloomy face, "Are you Li Yun?"

Li Yun cupped his hands and said, "This Senior Brother, my name is indeed Li Yun... but, I don't know her, and I certainly didn't come here because of her. Is there some misunderstanding?"

When it came to feigning ignorance, Li Yun was also a professional.

What fiancée, what Huang Yiyi.

If not for the previous body's memory of this person, he truly did not know this Mysterious Woman.

Let him fight over this incredibly stupid Mysterious Woman? No way!

"You don't know her?"

Liu Ningkong obviously didn't believe it. Huang Yiyi couldn't have mistaken the person.

But at this moment, Zhang Ruohan spoke up.

"Liu Ningkong, is there some misunderstanding?"

"Li Yun was brought by me. It's not as this Junior Sister thinks, that he came for her."

"Oh, so that's how it is..."

Liu Ningkong smiled, then suddenly turned around and slapped Huang Yiyi.

"You blind idiot!"

"The person brought by Senior Sister Zhang Ruohan of the Vermilion Bird Courtyard, and you mistook him?"

Huang Yiyi never dreamed that Liu Ningkong would slap her in front of so many people. Her eyes immediately turned red; she was both heartbroken and wronged.

"Liu *Shixiong*, I didn't mistake him, he is..."

"You still dare to talk back? Get lost!"

Liu Ningkong slapped her again, sending Huang Yiyi flying several meters away.

Then, he looked at Li Yun.

With a forced smile, he said, "Junior Brother Li Yun, right? Just a small misunderstanding, please don't mind."

"Mind? No, no, no... how could I mind? As long as Liu *Shixiong* is happy."

Li Yun waved his hands repeatedly.

Are you kidding? Mind?

Mind what?!

Even if you, Liu Ningkong, beat Huang Yiyi to death on the spot, it's none of my business.

Zhang Ruohan seemed to not want to get too entangled with Liu Ningkong.

She also said, "Alright, since it was a misunderstanding, it's good that it's cleared up."

"Li Yun, Zhang Chu... we'll go into the Vermilion Bird Courtyard first."

Saying this,

she led Li Yun and Zhang Chu away, walking directly into the Vermilion Bird Courtyard.

Liu Ningkong's eyes flickered, but he didn't stop them.

He just stared at Zhang Ruohan's slender and graceful back with a sinister gaze, swallowing saliva, and muttered to himself.

"Damn it, what kind of luck did Zhao Chuanfeng have to win Zhang Ruohan's favor, making it difficult for me to make a move..."

"However, Zhang Ruohan actually brought two men to the Vermilion Bird Courtyard behind Zhao Chuanfeng's back. Tsk tsk, if Zhao Chuanfeng finds out, his expression will probably be quite something, right?"

...

Stepping through the gate of the Vermilion Bird Courtyard,

Li Yun cursed inwardly. That idiot Huang Yiyi ruined his good fortune.

If that Mysterious Woman hadn't suddenly appeared, his Cognitive Points would have definitely broken the 30,000 mark. With her causing a scene, he didn't even have a chance to observe the stone monument.

Damn it!

Fortunately, he finally entered the Vermilion Bird Courtyard. Even if he couldn't look around freely, he would still have a chance to gain some Cognitive Points, right?

"Hey, Li Yun, what was with that Mysterious Woman just now? Your fiancée?"

"Was she snatched away?"

At this moment, Zhang Chu suddenly leaned over and asked with a gossipy look, faintly showing some schadenfreude.

"No!"

"No!"

"How is that possible?"

"She mistook me for someone else."

Li Yun certainly wouldn't admit it. Although he didn't care, it wasn't anything glorious, so why spread it around?

Zhang Chu looked disbelieving.

"Tsk... don't deny it."

"That Mysterious Woman called out your name and ran towards you. How could she have mistaken the person?"

"Quick, tell me about it, let me be happy..."

Slap!

As soon as his words fell,

Zhang Ruohan had already given Zhang Chu another hard knock on the head.

It hurt so much that Zhang Chu grimaced repeatedly.

"Sister, what are you doing? Hitting me again!"

"Didn't we agree you wouldn't hit me anymore?"

"Who agreed with you? That was just you talking to yourself. Besides, why is your mouth so foul?"

"I told you she mistook the person, and you're still chattering away. Are you asking for a beating?"

"I..."

Zhang Chu opened his mouth but ultimately couldn't say anything, feeling utterly stifled.

This made Li Yun secretly laugh for a while.

He secretly gave Zhang Ruohan a thumbs-up!

That guy Zhang Chu just needed a good lesson.

However, at this moment, Zhang Ruohan glanced at Li Yun and said pointedly, "That person just now was Liu Ningkong, an Inner Sect Disciple of the White Tiger Courtyard."

"His father, Elder Yuan Shou, is an Elder of the White Tiger Courtyard, and his grandfather is an Elder ranked seventeenth in the Tianwu Sect."

"If there are any misunderstandings, resolve them as soon as possible."

"A true man knows when to yield and when to stand firm; it's not shameful!"

Li Yun's expression immediately became serious, "Thank you, Senior Sister Zhang, for your guidance. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

"It's good that you know."

"However, you don't need to be too nervous. After staying in the Tianwu Sect for a long time, you will find that the Tianwu Sect follows rules."

"It's not something one person can control single-handedly."

"As long as you don't provoke anyone, no one can easily bully you."

"If someone really does, just go to the Outer Sect and find Elder Zhang Cong. Tell him I sent you, and he will stand up for you."

"Ah..."

As soon as Zhang Ruohan said this, Li Yun was stunned.

Even Zhang Chu found it very surprising.

They had just met, okay?

On the first day of meeting, she brought Li Yun to the Inner Sect, and that was one thing, but she was actually going to take responsibility for Li Yun? Isn't that too exaggerated?

Could it be that Sister has really fallen for someone else and is interested in Li Yun?

Oh my god...

This is going to be a big deal!

Zhang Chu was extremely worried, but he wasn't really stupid. At a time like this, he absolutely dared not speak carelessly.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Zhang. I just happened to meet Elder Zhang Cong two days ago. I didn't expect Senior Sister Zhang to also know Elder Zhang Cong."

"You've met Zhang Cong?"

Zhang Ruohan was a little surprised, but when she thought about the Realm Li Yun's Basic Stance Exercise had reached, she understood the reason.

"Heh heh, I should have thought of it earlier. Zhang Cong is in charge of the Deacon Chuan Wu in the Outer Sect. Your Basic Stance has improved so quickly, a Deacon Chuan Wu should have reported to Zhang Cong long ago."

"Then I won't hide it from you either."

"Zhang Cong is actually from my family, but by seniority in the family, he has to call me Aunt."

"What the heck!"

Li Yun's eyes widened instantly. If Zhang Ruohan hadn't said it, he would never have imagined that an old man like Zhang Cong would actually be Zhang Ruohan's cousin's son!

It was simply terrifying!

Zhang Chu also said smugly, "Didn't expect that, Li Yun? Elder Zhang Cong actually has to call me Uncle... Haha, if you dare to glare at me in the future, I'll go find Zhang Cong, and I'll make him punish you..."

As soon as his words fell!

Zhang Chu's body flew up.

This time Zhang Ruohan kicked him!

Sister beating brother, this time she really reached new heights!
