The innocent and beautiful Baihua Jade Girl, Weisheng Qiandai, had a bewildered and confused look in her small eyes, paired with her exquisite appearance, looking adorably like a silly husky.

"Master, I don't understand. Shen Qiang came here causing trouble, not only did he first trick us, but he also just fought with Qingyun Sword Pavilion. However, since Kang Luoying already joined Heshenghe, even if you really wanted to use him to uncover others' cards, it seems like you've got nothing out of it."

Hearing this, the alluring Baihua Palace Master laughed with her eyes bent into crescent shapes and said, "You silly girl, the moment Shen Qiang made a move, Qingyun Sword Pavilion already revealed their cards. It's just that you didn't realize it."

The Baihua Jade Girl, Weisheng Qiandai, looked confused: "Master, I don't understand."

The enchanting Baihua Palace Master said helplessly, "Silly girl, don't you understand yet? Qingyun Sword is the origin of Qingyun Sword Pavilion. The sword came first, and the pavilion followed. Such an important item, even if the people of Qingyun Sword Pavilion were blinded, they would never dare to wager it under normal circumstances because they can't afford to lose."

"However, Qingyun Sword Pavilion's Great Elder agreed, and the Qingyun Sword immediately became a wager. What's more important is that at that time, the Second Elder of Qingyun Sword Pavilion and their entourage didn't even ask for the Pavilion Master of Qingyun Sword Pavilion's approval."

"This means that the Pavilion Master of Qingyun Sword Pavilion has been sidelined and is nothing but a puppet. The real power of Qingyun Sword Pavilion is in the hands of the Great Elder of Qingyun Sword Pavilion."

The Baihua Jade Girl was shocked: "Really?"

Looking at her adorable eyes, the Baihua Palace Master shook her head and smiled helplessly: "You silly girl, you just can't wrap your head around it, so you, just obediently be your Jade Girl. In the future, I think I'll be more at ease finding a manager to be the Palace Master rather than handing over Baihua Palace to you."

Weisheng Qiandai awkwardly acted coy.

"Master, I'm not good at these things."

The Baihua Palace Master smiled, "Then what are you good at?"

"Being beautiful," the Baihua Jade Girl said proudly.

Seeing her vain expression, the Baihua Palace Master laughed, then she thoughtfully said, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. Our Baihua Palace has stood strong for a thousand years by focusing on one thing, which is teaching and recruiting disciples."

"We can't miss out on the Provincial City where Heshenghe is located. The two places where Qingyun Sword Pavilion and Hidden Sword Villa are located are also areas we haven't set foot in. Now that Qingyun Sword Pavilion's power is not in the hands of the Pavilion Master, I think Qingyun Sword Pavilion's Great Elder would very much need a powerful friend to help him stabilize his position."

"Then, in exchange, when we open two schools in their territory for recruitment, he would surely support it greatly."

Hearing this, Baihua Jade Girl Weisheng Qiandai's eyes shone: "Then we don't have to fight with Heshenghe, right?"

The beautiful Baihua Palace Master laughed and looked thoughtfully at Weisheng Qiandai, saying, "You seem to quite like this Shen Qiang, don't you?"

Upon hearing this, Weisheng Qiandai immediately panicked and denied it: "No, I don't like him. I just think he has a good character, helped us, and isn't a bad person."

The enchanting Baihua Palace Master smiled and looked at Weisheng Qiandai without saying anything.

The more Weisheng Qiandai explained, the more guilty she felt. She pouted her tender pink lips and said, "Master, I really don't like him. How can I make you believe me?"

The Baihua Palace Master smiled and raised her eyebrows, saying, "Alright, I believe you don't like him at all. But I'm just curious, if you don't like him, why are you so anxious to explain it back and forth?"

Weisheng Qiandai was stunned.

Before she could say anything, the Baihua Palace Master laughed and said, "Anyway, Shen Qiang helped us before, and he is the most important guest at our showcase event this time. Due to prior agreements, it would be inconvenient for me to interact with him, so you should go to the small hall's restaurant and dine with Shen Qiang and them, lest he uses this as an excuse for mischief."

Upon hearing this, Weisheng Qiandai hesitated and said, "Is this appropriate?"

"There's nothing inappropriate about it. Just go."

With an acknowledging "Oh," Weisheng Qiandai instinctively felt something wasn't quite right, but considering Shen Qiang's fiery temper, she was indeed a bit worried that he might stir up trouble during the meal. So, following the Palace Master's words, she didn't think too much and went downstairs to the small hall.

After she left, the Baihua Palace Master leaned back in her chair with a smile, silently for a moment, then took out her phone and dialed a number.

A moment later, the call was connected.

The Baihua Palace Master smiled warmly and said, "Young Master Sha, I seriously considered your proposal last time. That girl Qiandai is indeed a bit young and simple, but she is a good girl—a perfect match for you. So, I originally intended to take advantage of the showcase event to let you meet and have a meal together to see if you're suitable for each other."

"However, I'm sorry, you know Shen Qiang, don't you? He's so arrogant and unruly. Today, as soon as he arrived, he boiled water, making the hotel stink to high heavens. Then he gambled with Qingyun Sword Pavilion, winning their Qingyun Sword."

"Just now, he specifically demanded that Qian Dai accompany him for a meal, even threatening me that if Qian Dai didn't accompany him, he would leave."

"But who is Qian Dai? She is our Baihua Palace's purest and most beautiful Jade Girl! Who does Shen Qiang think he is to ask our Jade Girl to accompany him for a meal? Does he think he's in a brothel?"

"So, I was really angry at the time. I told him that our Qiandai had to have dinner with Young Master Sha tonight. But he was so arrogant. Yes, his words were unpleasant, so I won't repeat them to you. Yes, I firmly refused."

"But Qiandai, that silly girl, for the sake of the bigger picture, had to begrudge herself and go to have dinner with Shen Qiang."

"That Shen Qiang is a notorious womanizer, with countless girlfriends. Our Qiandai is still young and simple; I'm really afraid she will suffer losses."

"But there's no helping it, given that Shen Qiang is currently so powerful, surrounded by strong individuals. Not only are the ladies of our Baihua Palace afraid to confront him, but even those attending the showcase dare not speak out."

"Yes, exactly, he is the King of Demons, with so many Great Demons under him. Who dares to provoke him! So, Young Master Sha, maybe I'll arrange another opportunity for you to meet with Qiandai..."

"What! No need for another day? You're coming to find him? Please stay calm! The entire Cultivation World fears him now; how could you possibly be his match! Besides, you are a great hero of chivalry and tenderness. For such a trivial matter, if you get hurt, how could I bear it in my heart?"

"Ah, Young Master Sha, why don't you listen to my advice? I regret telling you about this."
