He said with a hint of helplessness, “Let’s go find Lin Chen. Only by staying together can we ensure our mutual safety now.”

Lin Fan put away his phone, wrapped his arm around Su Wanqing's slender waist, and instantly vanished into the Void Realm, disappearing like a streak of light.

Inside the exclusive pavilion of the Xuanyin Qin Sect, Lin Chen and Cuier were busy working.

Lin Chen had changed into her usual white long robe, draped with a light gauze, appearing elegant and agile.

Cuier was continuously performing the exclusive melodies of the Tianyin Palace. Accompanied by crisp musical notes, the Spiritual Qi in the room flowed constantly, as if being purified by her melody.

At this moment, Lin Fan and Su Wanqing suddenly appeared in the pavilion.

Su Wanqing was being held by her waist by Lin Fan as if she were a little chick, her eyes filled with surprise and a trace of embarrassment.

Lin Chen glanced over, her curious gaze wandering between the two.

Completely unaware that she was no longer in her own room, Su Wanqing fumbled at Lin Fan's waist, trying to find the phone that had been put away.

"Bai Fan, you put your hand… Mmph…"

Just as Su Wanqing was about to ask, Lin Fan hurriedly covered her mouth, preventing her from saying the word "phone."

Lin Fan awkwardly covered up, "It was too dangerous outside just now, so I brought her in to take shelter."

"Oh!" The female Disciples present spoke almost in unison, though it was unclear whether they believed him or not.

Su Wanqing finally realized what was happening, awkwardly broke free from Lin Fan's embrace, and tried to cover her embarrassment by saying, "Yes, it was too dangerous just now. It's a good thing Brother Bai acted in time!"

Lin Chen smiled slightly, thinking to herself that this scene was truly amusing. She reached out and pointed at Cuier.

"Cuier is using her melody to suppress the wandering ghosts. This place is quite spacious, so please, make yourself at home."

Su Wanqing and Lin Fan exchanged a glance. Lin Fan nodded slightly and found a comfortable spot nearby to sit down.

Su Wanqing followed suit and sat beside him. Leaning close to his ear, she said coquettishly, "Let me see the phone. I haven't played enough yet!"

Black lines appeared on Lin Fan's forehead. He thought to himself, 'If Lin Chen and Meng Li hear this, they will definitely guess my true identity.'

"Little Ancestor, please don't mention the phone anymore. If you say it again, I'm done for."

Su Wanqing let out an "Oh," lowered her head, and said nothing more. Her eyes revealed a trace of grievance and dissatisfaction.

Although she was highly curious, she understood that now was not the time to discuss such things.

And so, the group began to spend this seemingly peaceful night in the spacious pavilion.

Although Lin Fan trusted Ye Youming, he knew in his heart that there was an even bigger boss here: Supreme Mingye.

He would not lower his guard against Supreme Mingye. After all, once he made a move, one would either have their Primordial Yin extracted, their Primordial Yang extracted, or even lose their body entirely.

Thinking of this, Lin Fan couldn't help but shiver. He quickly gathered his full focus, not daring to relax for even a moment.

An hour later, Su Wanqing was so bored she started dozing off. She swayed from side to side, and finally, she simply pulled Lin Fan to her side, laid her head on him, and fell asleep.

Princess Hu Qinlan, Yin Miaoxue, and Princess Jin Xuan watched with eyes spitting fire, yet they were helpless.

Princess Hu Qinlan said indignantly, "This won't do. Tomorrow, we must have the Young Master take the three of us as his accompanying attendants. We cannot let this little girl take advantage anymore!"

"Exactly. The attendant quota for Grandmother Mingxi should rightfully be inherited by me!" Princess Jin Xuan chimed in from the side, adding.

"Yes, the Young Master is so outstanding, he should be accompanied by those of us who are equally outstanding! The attendant position of Grandmother Qiyue should also be taken over by me."

As Yin Miaoxue spoke, her gaze moved over Su Wanqing, and she suddenly noticed the pitch-black handprint on her buttocks, causing her to burst into laughter.

"Look at Su Wanqing's robe, you guys!" Yin Miaoxue said, suppressing her laughter.

Princess Hu Qinlan and Princess Jin Xuan were confused. "What is it? Isn't it fine? It's all star symbols, nothing special."

Yin Miaoxue held back her laughter, "Look closely, right there on the buttocks!"

"Pfft! It really is a pitch-black handprint!" Princess Hu Qinlan couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Who did that? Who pinched her like that?"

Yin Miaoxue couldn't help but suggest with a smile, "She's asleep now and doesn't know anything. It's not good to leave it exposed like that. Do you think we should grab a blanket to cover her up?"

Princess Hu Qinlan frowned and replied in a low voice, "It is indeed a bit awkward. We can't let her stay like that, after all, we are in front of the Young Master."

Princess Jin Xuan, however, snorted coldly and objected, "Why help her? She has already taken advantage of our Young Master. It's perfect for the Young Master to see what kind of woman she really is! Why cover it up?"

Yin Miaoxue was slightly taken aback and hesitated, "What you say makes sense… However, what if the Young Master sees it and thinks we are narrow-minded instead?"

Princess Hu Qinlan sighed, "Forget it, let's leave her be. Let the Young Master handle it himself. Anyway, there's no need for us to worry about her."

Lin Fan was focusing his mind, probing the surroundings through the Void Realm, when he suddenly felt a tug and a soft, delicate body slumped onto his lap.

He looked down and saw it was Su Wanqing. Although the two of them had already had countless intimate encounters in private, with so many people present now, Lin Fan couldn't help but feel a bit awkward.

He gently poked Su Wanqing's shoulder and whispered, "Hey, Little Ancestor, wake up, go sleep on the bed."

Su Wanqing groggily pushed his hand away and mumbled, "Stop it!" Then she continued to sleep soundly, completely ignoring the situation around her.

Lin Fan instinctively glanced at her figure, and his heart fluctuated slightly.

Suddenly, he caught sight of the two black handprints he had made earlier, and one of them was conspicuously exposed, clearly imprinted on her buttocks.

"Uh…"

Lin Fan was instantly flustered. He looked around and saw Yin Miaoxue, Princess Hu Qinlan, and Princess Jin Xuan struggling to hold back their laughter.

'They definitely saw it…' Lin Fan felt bitter inside. Knowing he couldn't hide it, his face couldn't help but burn.

"Hey, Su Wanqing, wake up!" Lin Fan tried to wake her up softly again, but only got a slight moan in return.

Lin Fan secretly beckoned Yin Miaoxue, Princess Hu Qinlan, and Princess Jin Xuan from across the way to come closer.

"You three, come here!"

The three approached with some trepidation, their eyes revealing a hint of unease.

"You three saw it!" Lin Fan said in a low voice.

Princess Jin Xuan responded first, "Young Master, Su Wanqing is not a good woman. Look at this black handprint; it's clearly left behind from where she was stealing a man. You should just send her away."

Veins popped on Lin Fan's forehead. "Shh, keep your voice down, don't wake her up! If Su Wanqing wakes up and discovers this black handprint, there's no telling what kind of trouble she'll cause me."

Princess Jin Xuan pouted, "Why? It's something she did herself, why should we cover for her!"

Lin Fan looked embarrassed. "I'm the one who pinched this black handprint! If she finds out, she'll definitely fight me to the death!"

"Pfft!!" The three of them couldn't hold back their laughter simultaneously.

All the female Disciples sensed something unusual and pricked up their ears curiously, trying hard to listen to what they were saying.

Although they remained sitting cross-legged, pretending to be nonchalant and not even lifting their eyes, as if they were completely unaware, they were secretly looking forward to more gossip unfolding in their hearts.

Lin Chen was also sharp. She quietly came behind Cuier and, appearing to channel Spiritual Qi to her in a proper manner, kept her ears pricked up straight, looking forward to the gossip on Lin Fan's side continuing to unfold.
