“Seduce… seduce Pei Ling?!” Sun Yinglan was stunned. She could not believe her ears. Her smile froze as she looked at Li Zhi in disbelief.

Li Zhi had a lazy look on his face while his hands did not stop moving. He said, “Why? Are you unwilling?”

Of course I’m unwilling!

Just as she was about to say this, Sun Yinglan’s mind raced. She forcefully endured it and smiled apologetically. “Senior Brother Li, I… Hmm… I’m already with you… Hmm… You…”

She gritted her teeth and changed from her shy and inexperienced self from a moment ago. She leaned into Li Zhi’s arms as if she had no bones and begged softly, “Are you willing to let me be with someone else? Besides, that Pei Ling is crazy and rude. I…”

Before she could finish, Li Zhi suddenly stopped and lowered his head to smile at her.

Before Sun Yinglan could figure out what he meant, she was suddenly slapped by a strong force!

It was Li Zhi who slapped her face, causing her to roll on the ground twice before stopping.

“Ah!” Sun Yinglan was only at the fourth level of Qi Refinement. How could she be Li Zhi’s match?

Even though Li Zhi did not use his full strength, the force blurred her vision and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

“Senior… Senior Brother Li?” A moment ago, they had been intimate, but now, he was so heartless.

Sun Yinglan’s anger rose subconsciously. However, when she looked up and saw Li Zhi’s expression, she immediately stopped and did not dare to say anything.

Li Zhi looked down from above and found a handkerchief from somewhere. He wiped his hands carefully and said without looking up, “B*tch, I’m here to instruct you to do something, not to discuss it with you, understand?”

“…” Sun Yinglan only hesitated for a moment before he raised his foot and stepped on her face, crushing her without any mercy. “There are at least 80,000 if not 100,000 pieces of trash like you in the outer sect. Do you think you can toy with me just by seducing me?

If not for the fact that I still need you to do something, I would have extracted your soul and fed it to the crow spirits.”

Li Zhi crossed his arms and looked down at her. There was no infatuation in his eyes, only disdain. “If you can’t do this in three days, try me.”

Sun Yinglan was shocked, angry, and afraid. She could feel that Li Zhi did not have any feelings for her. Even though he was taking advantage of her just now, he had no qualms about killing her at any time!

Under such circumstances, how could she dare to refuse? She endured the endless humiliation and sobbed. “Senior Brother Li… Senior Brother, don’t worry. I-I’ll definitely listen to you!”

Li Zhi narrowed his eyes and looked at her for a while. Suddenly, he smiled. His killing intent and coldness disappeared and turned into a casual friendliness. He even helped her up diligently and wiped the dirt on Sun Yinglan’s face. He said softly, “Look at your little face. Why is it like this? It makes my heart ache.”

If Sun Yinglan had heard such sympathetic words just now, she would definitely be overjoyed.

However, at this moment, she could not help but shiver when Li Zhi acted like he was gentle and sweet.

After a while, the door of the small courtyard opened. Li Zhi looked around with a satisfied expression. His gaze lingered on a bush not far away before he left with a faint smile.

After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no movement in the small courtyard, the trembling Pei Hongnian crawled out from behind the bushes and looked in the direction that Li Zhi left with lingering fear.

This Li Zhi’s cultivation level was so high!

He had clearly pasted two Breath Concealing Talismans on himself and hid in the bushes. He held his breath and tried his best to weaken his existence, but he was seen through at a glance.

Pei Hongnian secretly envied the other party’s strength. He composed himself and stepped forward to knock on the door carefully.

In the courtyard, Sun Yinglan’s face was pale as she lay on the ground covered in blood.

When she heard the knock on the door, she could not help but shudder.

She hurriedly tidied herself up and took out her clothes from her storage bag to wear. She quickly tidied up her hair before running to the door and forming a hand seal to activate the array.

However, after the array formation was activated, she saw that it was Pei Hongnian with his fawning smile. “You trash, why haven’t you gotten lost?!”

Pei Hongnian was used to being ordered around by her. Although he was sad, he still smiled apologetically. “Junior Sister Yinglan, I’m worried about you…”

“You’re worried?” Sun Yinglan suddenly slapped him on the face and shouted, “You’re only at the fourth level of Qi Refinement. What’s the use of worrying about me? You trash, other than saying something worthless, what else can you do? Get lost! Get lost immediately!”

“Junior Sister…” Pei Hongnian was at a loss for words. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly noticed the injuries on her face and could not help but be shocked. “Did that Senior Brother…”

Sun Yinglan gave him another slap. “Scram!!!”

The scenery in front of him rippled, and Sun Yinglan disappeared. She closed the array again.

Pei Hongnian was both disappointed and sad. He paced around the door for a while before leaving unhappily.

In the small courtyard, Sun Yinglan’s expression was dark, and her eyes were filled with resentment as she stared at his back. After he completely disappeared, she gritted her teeth and thought of a countermeasure. That bastard Li Zhi… He’s so powerful, and his cousin is the trusted aide of the inner sect master. He’s not someone I can provoke… Even if I report him to the Disciplinary Hall, I’ll only get them to fine him some spirit stones…

Moreover, if I do this, I’d completely offend the other party.

If Li Zhi hardened his heart and did not care about the fine, she would not be able to withstand it if he killed her to feed his crow spirits!

Therefore, she could only accept this loss.

Not only that, but it was also best not to disobey the other party’s instructions.

So she must find a strong enough male cultivator… Thinking of how she had been carefree and sought after all these years in the outer sect, although she could not get whatever she wanted, today… Sun Yinglan felt bitter in her heart and could not help but cry. She bit her lip and thought angrily, I’ve had enough of being at the mercy of others!

She forced herself to calm down and suddenly thought of something. Wait! Pei Ling is still alive?

What’s going on with Chen Huan and the others? Why did they let this kid off?

Sun Yinglan was puzzled. After all, no matter how she looked at it, Chen Huan and the others would not show mercy to Pei Ling. And how could a kid who was only at the fourth level of Qi Refinement and had just entered the sect escape from Chen Huan and the others?

Most importantly, this Pei Ling comes from a humble background and is not very strong. How can he trouble Li Zhi to personally make a move and get me to plot against him? She frowned and thought quickly. Li Zhi’s cousin is a disciple of Clear River Faction. I heard from that trash Pei Hongnian that Miao Chengyang, the Branch Master of Clear River Faction, has always had a grudge against Zheng Jingshan, the Branch Master of Double Mulberry Faction, who he has sided with. Now that Li Zhi wants me to seduce Pei Hongnian’s younger brother, I’m sure it’s not to target Pei Hongnian… This trash is not worthy.

It’s most likely a grudge involving two factions.

As for Pei Ling… Could it be that this trash Pei Hongnian lied to me?

Sun Yinglan’s expression darkened. She immediately thought of Pei Hongnian’s delay in introducing her to Zheng Jingshan. Could it be that Pei Ling’s background is not that simple? Or could it be that he caught Senior Brother Zheng’s eye in some way that attracted the attention of Li Zhi and the others?

Pei Hongnian, this trash, bastard!

Damn it, you usually say that you admire me, but in fact, when it comes to serious matters, when do you ever think of me?

Indeed, no man is good!

Her gaze flickered as she thought quickly for a moment before taking out her voice transmission talisman and instructing her lackeys, “Go and find out what Pei Hongnian’s younger brother, Pei Ling, has been doing these days. Where is he now?”

At this moment, Pei Ling was in front of the Dharma Pavilion on an unfamiliar mountain peak. He looked up and sized up this seemingly inconspicuous three-story building.
