Chapter 89

Looking at Jun Yehan's dark and gloomy face, the kneeling guard continued, "All of this is because of a woman named Gu Qincheng."

He then recounted the reasons for the conflict between Chen Chang'an and Jun Wujian, as well as the details about Chen Chang'an.

These were not secrets in Chang'an City and were easy to investigate.

After listening, Jun Yehan's expression became even colder, "They all say Chen Chang'an entered the Demon Burial Abyss? This is not necessarily..."

Jun Yehan's mind was racing.

Soon, he came to a conclusion!

His eyes lit up, "That's it, it must be like this! It must be like this!"

"Chen Chang'an, who disappeared for a year, was probably taken away by the Scholar in Plain Clothes!"

"This led to a significant increase in his strength, and his guardian is the Scholar in Plain Clothes!"

"Furthermore, when Chen Chang'an came to Zhongzhou City, the Scholar in Plain Clothes appeared as his master... This might be a cover-up!"

"His true disciple... is Chen Chang'an!"

The guard, hearing Jun Yehan's words, also began to piece things together in his mind.

His eyes brightened, and he clasped his hands, "Elder, you are wise, I am in awe!"

"Hmph, a mere trick, how could it escape my eyes?"

Jun Yehan said smugly.

Suddenly, he thought of something and asked coldly, "Where is that Gu Qincheng?"

"She went to the Hundred Flowers Immortal Sect!"

The guard continued.

When he found out that all the events were related to a woman named Gu Qincheng, he also specifically investigated her movements.

He discovered that the woman had also come to the Holy Land and even went to the Hundred Flowers Immortal Sect!

"Hmph!"

Jun Yehan sneered, "Didn't she say she was our Jun family's Jun Wujian's woman?"

"Think of a way to see if we can abduct her without alarming the Hundred Flowers Immortal Sect!"

"Yes!"

The guard responded.

"Also, continue to monitor the situation with Chen Chang'an and others, but do not provoke them."

After saying this, Jun Yehan got up and left, "I need to inform the family head. Chen Chang'an cannot be provoked for now."

......

The conflict between Chen Chang'an and the Lin family in Dongzhou City had become widely known throughout Zhongzhou City.

It had even spread in all directions.

After all, it involved the Scholar in Plain Clothes, who was a Sword Lord.

In a different inn, a tall and graceful woman stood by the window, silent for a long time.

"Are you sure the young man who was with the Scholar in Plain Clothes is called Chen Chang'an?"

After a moment, the red lips under the white veil moved slightly.

"Saintess, yes, the Scholar in Plain Clothes called him Chen Chang'an."

The few women behind her were puzzled.

They didn't understand why their Saintess was interested in a young man named Chen Chang'an.

The woman in front was Ning Tingyu.

The Saintess of the Hundred Flowers Immortal Sect!

Hearing this, her eyes trembled, filled with layers of complex emotions.

"Chen Chang'an, hmpf, when we first met in the Dongzhou Secret Realm, you kicked my butt... and slapped my face... Now that you're here, I'll make you pay!"

She thought angrily, then waved her hand, dismissing the women behind her.

In an instant, she changed into a black outfit, looking spirited and ready to find someone to teach a lesson.

Suddenly, she hesitated.

"Fine, in return for helping me escape, I'll just give you a small lesson."

She said softly, then changed into a white dress, wearing a white hood to cover her beautiful face, and flew out of the window, disappearing into the night sky.

......

That night, a full moon hung in the sky, surrounded by countless stars.

The entire Zhongzhou City was bustling, with various lights adorning the bustling night market, making it incredibly beautiful.

Chen Chang'an was sitting in his room, meditating and comprehending the sword insights given by Eighth Master.

Suddenly, he sensed movement by the window.

"Who!"

Chen Chang'an opened his eyes sharply, and eight flying swords hovered in front of him, humming.

If anything unusual happened, they would swoop out to kill and drink blood.

"Hmph, Chen Chang'an!"

At that moment, a slender white figure slipped in, accompanied by a captivating floral fragrance, making Chen Chang'an even more alert.

A woman!

And a beautiful one!

Feixin had said, the more beautiful a woman, the more likely she is to deceive!

Be careful!

"It's you?"

When he saw the person, Chen Chang'an was stunned.

The person in front of him was Ning Tingyu, whom he had met in the Dongzhou Secret Realm!

Seeing Chen Chang'an's eight flying swords pointed at her, she felt as if she was being stared at by eight venomous snakes, making her hair stand on end!

This kid, what a freakish advancement speed!

But in the next instant, she became furious, "Hmph, is this how you greet an old friend with your swords?"

She crossed her arms, her white dress pressed down, and her chest rose and fell with anger.

Seeing that the person had no hostile intent, Chen Chang'an retracted his flying swords.

But he was still wary, "What are you here for? And we're not friends, are we?"

Ning Tingyu ignored him and walked to the table in the middle of the room and sat down.

She poured herself a cup of tea and sipped it, "You came here to take the Sword Bearer examination, right?"

Chen Chang'an looked at her, silent.

At the same time, in the next room, Ji Xuangu and Feixin pressed their ears against the wall, trying to hear what was being said.

"That woman has no killing intent, she won't harm Chang'an."

The Scholar in Plain Clothes said calmly.

"Tsk tsk, this little brother is quite something, to have the Saintess come to him!"

Feixin said smugly.

"Saintess? Which sect's Saintess?" Ji Xuangu was shocked, "And how do you know?"

"Tsk tsk, that unique floral fragrance, it's from the Hundred Flowers Immortal Sect."

Feixin said smugly, "As for who it is, do we need to guess?

The only one who could have any connection with the little Chang'an is the Ning Tingyu you mentioned, right?"

Hearing this, Ji Xuangu was shocked, "What does Ning Tingyu want with the little Chang'an?"

"Tsk, what else? When a woman visits a man at night, it's either to fight or to talk about feelings!"

Feixin said, pursing her lips.

Ji Xuangu's eyes widened, "How is that possible?!! They've only met a few times, and they have a grudge!"

"You don't understand women, do you? When a woman is curious about a man, it's the beginning of a nightmare."

Feixin rolled her eyes at Ji Xuangu and said.

Then the two of them continued to eavesdrop.

The Scholar in Plain Clothes was speechless.

......

In Chen Chang'an's room.

"So, team up with me!" Ning Tingyu smiled.

Even she didn't know why, originally planning to fight Chen Chang'an, but in the end, she couldn't bring herself to do it. During their conversation, she guessed Chen Chang'an's purpose.

"Can we team up?"

Chen Chang'an was puzzled.

"Of course, team up to take out the opponents first, that's what the geniuses of other major forces do!"

Ning Tingyu smiled, "So, teaming up with me, you won't lose!

It's better than fighting alone, after all, we cooperated in the Dongzhou Secret Realm, didn't we?"

Chen Chang'an carefully observed Ning Tingyu, seeing a hint of evasion in her star-like eyes, and even... a bit of anticipation and nervousness.

And when she lifted the veil to drink tea, she was very cautious.

"Alright, I agree."

Chen Chang'an nodded.
