"Ha ha…" In the courtyard, Bai Lian suddenly burst into laughter.

The laughter was somewhat inexplicable and made one's heart ache.

"What the hell are you laughing at!" Long Jianchuan roared angrily.

"I'm laughing at myself, me, Bai Lian, actually falling for you. It's ridiculous, so ridiculous!" Bai Lian's voice was filled with pain and resentment.

"Damn you!" After cursing, Long Jianchuan walked towards Bai Lian.

Clang!

With a bold move, Bai Lian drew her sword, the white longsword shimmering under the mottled sunlight. Her perfect face was covered with frost, her entire expression as if it had been frozen in the polar ice for countless years, unmelting.

In the face of Bai Lian's longsword, Long Jianchuan wore a look of disdain.

If it had been before, he might have cared a bit.

After all, Bai Lian's strength was not inferior to his, but now… having gained the power of Chu Xiong, let alone Bai Lian, he did not even consider Fang Rujing worthy of his attention.

"Long Jianchuan, from now on, it's best we never meet again." Bai Lian was utterly disappointed in Long Jianchuan, finding this man repulsive to her core.

"What? Going to cozy up with the old geezer who gave you the Serpent Essence Blood? Let me meet him too, let me see if that old thing can still tear off your clothes." Long Jianchuan's words were extremely unpleasant to hear.

Bai Lian's complexion turned somewhat pale; in her eyes, Long Jianchuan had always been the epitome of perfection.

But who would have thought, this perfection crumbled so easily.

"Cough… cough cough…" Suddenly, a coughing sound came.

Both Long Jianchuan and Bai Lian were startled and quickly looked up at the roof.

On the roof, Tang Rao was sitting leisurely with his legs crossed, looking as if he had been there for a long time, only missing a plate of sunflower seeds.

"Tell me, am I that old?" Tang Rao chuckled at Long Jianchuan, "The Serpent Essence Blood was given by me to Bai Lian. From what you said, you want to meet me."

"Tang Rao! You still dare to show up!" Upon seeing Tang Rao, Long Jianchuan's twisted rage immediately exploded.

"Oh, aren't you the one called... right, right, Sword-toothed Dragon…" Tang Rao pointed at Long Jianchuan with an excited expression.

Long Jianchuan: "…"

Sword-toothed Dragon your… I'm Long Jianchuan.

"Heh, slut, no wonder you ignore me, turns out you hooked up with Tang Rao." Long Jianchuan glanced at Bai Lian and made another unpleasant remark.

In Long Jianchuan's eyes, Bai Lian is a slut, Tang Rao is a slut, Fang Yanran is a slut, everyone in the world damn owes him money, owes him an explanation.

"Seems like, the other day, I slapped you too lightly. You've recovered quite fast, such a severe injury, healing in just a couple of days," Tang Rao said with a smile.

Hearing Tang Rao's words, Long Jianchuan felt a slight shock in his heart.

Tang Rao's words were a bit sarcastic; did this guy discover something?

Impossible, he definitely couldn't have discovered it.

"Hmph, I, Long Jianchuan, am exceptionally gifted and have reached a new level. Naturally, my injuries have healed," Long Jianchuan snorted, this was the excuse he had prepared in advance.

Anger enhancing strength and then quick recovery from injuries, it made sense.

"Is that so? By the way, a few days ago a Foundation Establishment pinnacle expert from Wangu Sect infiltrated here, are you sure it wasn't him who healed your injuries?" Tang Rao suddenly challenged him bluntly.

Perhaps not expecting Tang Rao to ask so directly, a flicker of panic clearly passed through Long Jianchuan's eyes.

Not just Tang Rao, even Bai Lian noticed it.

"Tang Rao, you suspect me? What are you? I've been loyal to Yin Yang Valley for twenty years, hating Wangu Sect to the bone. You trash, you are the biggest suspect!" Long Jianchuan pointed at Tang Rao, trying to bite back.

"Don't get so worked up, I was just asking if you have any ties with Chu Xiong, if not, just say no, there's no need for all this talk," Tang Rao shrugged, smiling peculiarly.

"Hmph, a pair of immoral lovers, just you wait!" Long Jianchuan suddenly cursed, then glared fiercely at Tang Rao and Bai Lian, and actually turned to leave.

"This just got more interesting," Tang Rao's lips curled up.

Given Long Jianchuan's temperament and the breakthrough in strength, plus being humiliated once again, it was strange if he didn't retaliate.

But, he just didn't make a move.

"Xiao Bai Lian, are you okay?" Tang Rao asked Bai Lian.

"I'm fine." Bai Lian shook her head.

"Hey, don't be so sad. Who hasn't loved a few jerks when they were young? It's good as long as you see their true colors," Tang Rao consoled.

Bai Lian: "..."

"But speaking of which, when did Long Jianchuan recover from his injuries?" Tang Rao asked.

"Is there something wrong with him?" Bai Lian immediately countered.

"Don't you think so too?" Tang Rao chuckled playfully. Bai Lian was smart; she should see through him.

Bai Lian was silent. Indeed, Long Jianchuan had been behaving oddly and irrationally these past few days.

"Xiao Bai Lian, do you want to team up and set a trap for this jerk?" Tang Rao threw a coquettish look at Bai Lian.

Long Jianchuan definitely had an issue, and he seemed to be scheming something.

Tang Rao disliked being passive, so he decided to dig a pit directly for Long Jianchuan.

This pit required Bai Lian's cooperation.

"Okay." Bai Lian nodded without any hesitation.

...

Long Jianchuan returned to his room with a gloomy and terrifying look, gripping his longsword so tightly it creaked.

Just now, how he wanted to strike down Tang Rao immediately.

With his current strength, he could definitely defeat that brat, Tang Rao.

But in the end, he restrained himself, as attacking Tang Rao without any reason would surely raise suspicions among many, including Fang Rujing. Besides, with Bai Lian nearby, if he couldn't kill Tang Rao with one strike, it would be troublesome.

Long Jianchuan didn't want to side with the Wangu Sect, even though his power was given by Chu Xiong.

His plan was to kill Tang Rao, then go to Wangu Sect for the antidote, and continue to be the prominent disciple of the Valley Master back to Yin Yang Valley.

With his current strength, he would eventually take over the Yin Yang Valley.

"Tang Rao, I'll let you live a few more days."

...

As for Tang Rao, his style was to dig the pit and bury it on the spot.

Waiting for a few days or making proper arrangements, he disdained such tactics.

As the saying goes, the freshest poop smells the best, and the freshly dug pit is the deepest.

Therefore, in the evening, he started preparing.

Bringing a shovel… oh, wrong, bringing Bai Lian, he happily began digging.

As the sun set and birds slowly returned to the forest, everything was ready, and the car of the experienced driver Tang Rao slowly rolled out.

"Have you heard about that Tang Rao…"

"Young Master Tang? What about him?"

"What Young Master Tang, nonsense, let me tell you, Tang Rao has an affair with Bai Lian."

"Holy shit, really? Isn't he with Fang Yanran?"

"Ts ts ts, this is going to blow up big, I heard even the Valley Master knows."

...

In Yin Yang Valley, rumors somehow started spreading from some corner.

Such gossipy things, you never have to worry about them not spreading, because no matter how much humanity advances, that gossip-mongering spirit will never die.
