\'Oh! \' Bai Lung\'s sinister aura intensified, heeding such magnificent news from the system.
Tho, One would assume, Bai Lung has nothing towards Saintess but that would be completely wrong, he has a strong desire to conquer her.
Not just her her but every powerful, influential, and beautiful woman.
Setting those matters aside for now,
" Interesting…" Bai Lung spoke with a mysterious sinister smile.
It was as if he was talking to himself, but it also appeared as if his words were directed at her.
" Saintess! You knew that if Ling Fei were to face off against me, he would be like an egg smashed into a rock, so, you wanted him to have an easy escape, didn\'t you, " he said in a cold tone.
" The best way you found, would be to act with indifference towards everything that went on to show me that you and Ling Fei have nothing to do with each other... That way, I would be a pawn and put up some good words about you to your father, " He added while he got close to her and patted her shoulders.
" Quite a far sought scheme," He whispered right into her ears while he inhaled the intoxicating, hypnotizing feminine scent of her. " Truly the snake would be dead and the stick won\'t break either, "
Hearing all this, Xiao Ling\'r\'s soul froze in time.
What are these words? How come the Holy Envoy interpreted the words in such a way,
Indeed, she had wished that Holy Envoy would speak some favorable words toward her father, that would make explaining a little easier and she wouldn\'t have to deal with her father.
But what now,
" I-I... No... " She stammered unable to catch the accurate words.
Meanwhile, n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Ling Fei, who was smashed to the ground, feeling mist his bones broken, listened to all those words in satisfaction.
It seems the Saintess still cares for him despite the shown cruelty.
However, he couldn\'t be more wrong. The way he feels is just a small planning of Bai Lung, that way the monkey would continue to dance on stage.
" However Saintess, I still believe there is nothing between you, I could feel the attack was real, " Standing right behind her, and grabbing both of her shoulders with his hands, he spoke softly.
Hearing this, she raised her eyebrows.
Just what was this man scheming? She couldn\'t fathom what was in this man\'s heart and mind.
He speaks something, means something.
He is young, sharp, and cunning, also, his cultivation base remained unknown. He is surrounded by thick miasma of Mystery and uncertainty which isn\'t easy to decode.
" W-What does Young Lord Bai meant by such words? " She couldn\'t help but open her mouth with nervousness creeping at her,
Usually, she was cold and aloof but here she couldn\'t help by feel uneasy,
" You heard exactly what I meant, Saintess, " His grip on her shoulder became strong while he leaned in closer, resting his head right beside her at his left hand gripping her shoulder.
" Ling Fei, is currently badly injured just from my one impact, however, killing him right now is a very bad thing after all, I am a man with virtue, "he uttered.
" that being said, he tried to attack this Bai and tarnish Saintess\'s name, as such he needs to get a penalty, and this honored one believes you would be the right one, who should punish him more than I do, " He spoke.
His cold tone made her soul tremble uncontrollably.
" Destroy his Dao Heart. Cripple him, Saintess, since you mentioned, you have nothing to do with him and are willing to shed blood if necessary, it\'s the perfect opportunity to show your trustworthiness, " His sinister smile depended.
All while,
As Ling Fei lay on the ground, battered and bruised, his mind raced with a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions, he couldn\'t let that scoundrel manipulate Saintess\'s thoughts,
He believed she needed him, he was the only one who could save her.
...
Ling Fei\'s mind: Argh! Every breath feels like shards of glass tearing through my chest. The pain is unbearable, but amidst the agony, there\'s a glimmer of satisfaction. Xiao Ling\'r\'s indifference cuts deeper than any physical blow but, it seems she still holds me deep. Her attack was just a show, it seems she really believes in my ability. Huff* huff* I knew Bai Lung\'s true intentions all along, I knew it, he wasn\'t a good man. His honeyed words mask a venomous scheme, a plot to sow discord and manipulate those around him. And yet, even as I lie broken at his feet, I can\'t help but admire his cunningness, both me and Saintess are cornered. However, if I don\'t die today, I, Ling Fei, vow to slaughter Bai Lung and his entire bloodline. But Xiao Ling\'r... her silence speaks volumes. If things continued, she would fall right under his clutch, Does she truly believe I\'m the villain in this twisted narrative? Maybe, I should have listened to the immortal Master, if so, I would have saved both saintess and myself. However. I refuse to be cast aside as a pawn in this game. I can still fight, till I breathe, I won\'t allow Bai Lung to corrupt the world with his evil intentions. My resolve remains unbroken, my spirit undaunted. I, Ling Fei, the underestimated disciple, will rise again, stronger than ever before. And when I do, Bai Lung will rue the day he crossed me.

" What are you thinking, Saintess? Hurry up and cripple this rascal, this Bai has trusted you, don\'t prove me wrong, " The sinister smirk intensified.
