It was impossible for Luo Ning to explain the honey trap she had used, so she made up a story. “Ye Jingtang just came to the capital in April. Although his comprehension ability is unprecedented, he was just a wild Jianghu kid who had never seen the world before. I led the way for him and taught him many martial arts concepts. He didn’t have money, but I even let him stay here. Only then did he reach his current achievements in a short period of time. He regards me as… um… a teacher and a friend and a senior.”

Ping’er was still skeptical. “Even so, now that Hero Ye has become a Martial Chief, the Great Wei Imperial Court will definitely make good use of him. He will have all the glory, fame, and fortune he wants. Why would he follow us to restore the country? Moreover, Madam, you can’t control such a person at all. He even knows your identity. If he has the idea of abandoning the dark and joining the light, wouldn’t you and the young lady…”

Luo Ning thought for a moment and continued to make up stories. “Ye Jingtang is not a despicable person who forgets righteousness when he sees benefits. He lived in Liang Province since he was a child. In a bitter place like Liang Province, there are bandits everywhere, and the people don’t even have enough to eat. But the Imperial Court doesn’t care about it. So he has always been very dissatisfied with the Imperial Court and wants to change this situation. Our Pacifying Heaven Cult’s goal is to overturn the Imperial Court and return peace to the people. It coincides with him. That’s why he joined our Pacifying Heaven Cult and is working together with us for our great cause.”

Ping’er felt that this explanation was quite reasonable. After some thought, she nodded and praised, “As expected, heroes cherish heroes. I knew that such a powerful figure like Hero Ye wouldn’t be an eagle or dog of the Imperial Court who loves power. Then, I’ll write a letter now and send it back to the South Firmament Mountains to explain the truth to the cult master.”

Luo Ning waved her hand slightly. “You should go back and deliver the message. I know what to do. There’s nothing for you to do here…”

Ping’er said awkwardly, “The cult master said that if you don’t go back, 1 will stay here to help you. If I go back, the cult master will definitely be suspicious and might come personally to take a look.”

Luo Ning blinked. When she heard this, her heart turned ashen. She could only compromise. “That’s fine too. I’m usually busy outside. It’s a good thing that you can accompany Yunli to take care of her food and daily life.” (f)reewe(b)novel

“Hehe~” Ping’er nodded and smiled. Then she turned around and went back to write a letter.

Luo Ning had spouted a bunch of nonsense. After stabilizing the little follower sent by Xue Baijin, she didn’t even have the mood to discipline Little Yunli. Soon, she left alone and ran back to the Pei residence…

Late at night, in the back of the Pei residence…

The doors and windows of the boudoir were closed, and there was only a candle lamp on the dressing table in the inner room.

The hanging curtains rippled like water, and the faint sound of something colliding into the moon was vaguely audible.

Pei Xiangjun was still stretching like a cat. Her beautiful face was slightly red. She was biting her lower lip with her eyes closed. Afraid that her sister-in-law and the maidservants in the back residence would hear her, she didn’t make a sound.

Ye Jingtang was kneeling on the bed, holding the fair and smooth moon with both hands, his eyes reflecting the snow-white back. He was practicing the Azure Dragon Claw.

After practicing for an unknown period of time, before they could decide a victor, soft footsteps suddenly sounded outside.

Tread, tread…

The dizzy Pei Xiangjun came back to her senses. She knew who was here just by listening to the footsteps. She felt that her current actions were a little embarrassing, so she lay on her side on the pillow and whispered, “This vixen really couldn’t help herself tonight…”

Ye Jingtang also stopped moving his spear. Because it was inconvenient for him to go out, he only stuck his head out of the curtain to look.

Soon, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Luo Ning, dressed in blue, sneaked in quietly.

Pei Xiangjun was almost there. Seeing that Ye Jingtang wasn’t moving, she even took the initiative to twist her waist and say, “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t come? All- What are you doing here?”

As soon as Luo Ning walked into the inner room, she heard a familiar sound. Her cold and beautiful eyes immediately revealed a strange expression, but she didn’t argue with this shameless woman.

She quickly walked to the bed and lifted the curtain. She pushed Third Lady inside, covered the hostile scoundrel with a thin blanket, and sat in front of Ye Jingtang. “Why are you still messing around at a time like this?”

Ye Jingtang originally wanted to bully Ning’er, who had appeared out of nowhere halfway, but when he saw her anxious and serious expression, he calmed down and frowned. “What’s wrong? Did Yunli cause trouble?”

Hearing this, Pei Xiangjun sat up with a puzzled expression.

Luo Ning’s expression was complicated. “Xue Baijin sent her personal maid over. She’s already at Double Osmanthus Alley…”

“Tsk~” Pei Xiangjun was speechless. She lay back on the pillow and said angrily, “I thought it was something big, but a maid came. Do you have to act like you don’t have long to live?”

“What do you know?” Luo Ning pulled up the thin blanket to cover Third Lady’s face. “Qiu Tianhe has already left. If I stay in the capital, I have to do something. If I don’t do anything, 1 have to return to the South Firmament Mountains immediately. Xue Baijin sent someone to supervise me. If 1 send her back, Xue Baijin will definitely come over herself. At that time, she will definitely beat you to death, little thief!”

This time, Ye Jingtang understood the severity of the matter. He frowned and asked, “So, what should we do?”

Pei Xiangjun propped up her upper body and replied, “Then, you can just go back. I can take care of Jingtang alone, and Jingtang won’t be beaten to death…”

“You…” Luo Ning was furious. She raised her hand and wanted to hit Third Lady.

Ye Jingtang hurriedly stopped the fight in the middle and said amiably, “Stop joking around. Let’s get down to business. Now, we have to do something for the Pacifying Heaven Cult Master to see, right?”

“I’m not doing it for her to see. I’m doing it seriously,” Luo Ning said solemnly. “I’m the cult mistress of the Pacifying Heaven Cult, not a member of the Imperial Court. Since 1 agreed to stay in the capital to find a way to enter the palace, I have to do something.. How can 1 deceive Xue Baijin?”
