The whole sect is full of cunning people, only I am really stupid

Shen Ya could feel Qiulin's serious attitude when he said he wanted to become his Taoist partner.

However, Shen Ya did not expect Qiulin to be so anxious.

She still learned from others that she was going to hold a ceremony to form a covenant.

Qiulin did not restrict Shen Ya's freedom, nor did he suppress Shen Ya's cultivation.

However, there are always people in the Mahayana stage following Shen Ya. Wherever Shen Ya goes, those two people will follow.

There will be no chance for Shen Ya to be left alone.

Getting bored of staying in the yard, Shen Ya went out for a walk.

After walking for a while, I found that everyone in the mansion was in a hurry.

Either they are cleaning or they are tidying up the flowers and plants.

"What are they doing? What is the City Lord's Mansion going to do?"

Shen Ya asked.

"Cleaning up. Miss Wuzhi, do you want to go for a stroll in the garden?"

The maid was also one of the people guarding Shen Ya, a Mahayana cultivator.

Shen Ya didn't have anywhere she wanted to go.

After hearing what the maid said, she nodded and prepared to go for a walk in the garden.

There were not many people in the garden, so Shen Ya sat in the garden pavilion, looking down at the fish in the pond.

The maidservant also understands the expressions of others.

Seeing that Shen Ya seemed to like the fish in the pond very much, he handed over fish food and asked Shen Ya to feed them for fun.

"Thank you."

Shen Ya picked up the fish food in the bowl and fed the fish out of boredom.

After feeding the fish almost a bowl of food, she became a little annoyed and was about to get up and leave.

"Who are you and why are you in Brother Qiulin's yard?"

A female voice broke the silence of the garden.

Shen Ya put down the fish food and looked towards the place where the sound came from.

Then he saw a girl in gorgeous clothes walking towards him.

The girl had a whip hanging around her waist, looking menacing.

"Who is this person?"

Shen Ya asked the maid.

"Miss Li from the city."

The maid stepped forward and blocked the girl.

"Ms. Li, please go out."

"Get out of the way. I'm not looking for you."

Miss Li didn't even look at the maid, but looked at Shen Ya with anger.

That expression made it seem as if Shen Ya had done something extremely outrageous to her.

"So you're here to see me?"

Shen Ya asked the maid to move aside and wanted to hear what Miss Li had to say.

"Yes, it's you I'm looking for."

After receiving Shen Ya's order, the maid stepped aside and let Miss Li pass.

"Are you the one who is going to hold the covenant ceremony with Brother Qiulin?"

Miss Li's words made Shen Ya silent.

My entire mind was filled with the four words "Ceremony of Covenant".

"What did you just say? Who wants to hold a covenant ceremony with whom?"

Shen Ya even suspected that there might be something wrong with his ears after he arrived at Zhili.

Why does she always hear words that she doesn't want to understand?

Miss Li was also good-tempered, and she really said it again, "I said, are you the female monk who is going to hold a covenant ceremony with Brother Qiulin?"

Now Shen Ya heard it clearly.

There's nothing wrong with her ears.

What Miss Li was talking about was the covenant ceremony.

Why didn't anyone tell her about her marriage ceremony?

"Who said I'm going to hold a covenant ceremony with Qiulin?"

Shen Ya asked Miss Li to sit down and talk slowly.

Seeing Shen Ya's confused face, Miss Li looked at her suspiciously.

It seemed as if he was trying to figure out whether Shen Ya really didn't know or was just pretending to be crazy.

"The news has spread all over Fengcheng. Not only Fengcheng, but also the surrounding cities should have received the news. This morning, the Qiu family told us the news. They said that they would hold a bond-making ceremony for Brother Qiulin in a month."

"You do not know?"

Does she look like she knows?

Shen Ya glanced at the maid beside her, "Is what she said true?"

The maid paused and said, "Yes, Miss Wuzhi."

"The covenant ceremony between Qiulin and I?"

The maid nodded again.

Shen Ya was almost so angry that she laughed.

She was actually the last one to know about her covenant ceremony.

It's so funny that it makes you laugh out loud.

She wondered why the Qiu family was cleaning so lavishly today.

This is the reason why I have been working on this for so long.

The Engagement Ceremony is a necessary ceremony for two parties to become a couple, and its importance is almost the same as that of a marriage.

It means to tell your parents and friends that from now on, you will have a spiritual partner.

Make their relationship public.

"Your young master is quite interesting. Did I have to wait until the covenant ceremony began and I was put on clothes and pushed onto the platform before I knew that I was going to have a Taoist partner?"

Shen Ya seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and her expression was very unpleasant.

She thought Qiulin was just talking casually, but she didn't expect that he would actually hold a ceremony to form a bond.

If they really hold a ceremony to complete the contract, they will be true Taoist couples.

Miss Li sensed something was wrong, "Don't you know that you two are going to hold a covenant ceremony?"

"Do I look like I know?"

Shen Ya smiled coldly and said to the maid, "Bring Qiulin to me. I want to know when my contract-making ceremony will begin. When should I know?"

The tone fell heavily on the four words “my covenant ceremony”.

Anyone with eyes could see that Shen Ya was in a very bad mood at the moment.

The maid lowered her head and said, "Yes."

"You really don't know."

Miss Li changed to a more comfortable position, "Who are you? Why does Brother Qiulin want to be your Taoist partner so much?"

Miss Li's jealousy was about to burst out of her eyes.

It was obvious that Qiulin had been preparing for the covenant ceremony without telling Shen Ya, which made her feel that Qiulin liked Shen Ya very much.

"You'll have to ask him about that. He said this less than two days after I met him. If you can persuade him to cancel the covenant ceremony, I'll thank you."

Shen Ya was not surprised by Miss Li's jealousy and even wanted to laugh.

I'm afraid only those who like Qiulin will be surprised by this move.

For Shen Ya, it only deepened his image as a person with a bad brain in Shen Ya's mind.

Miss Li also wants to disrupt the covenant ceremony.

But that was the Qiu family, and the protagonist was Qiulin.

Even if she was unhappy, she didn't dare to make trouble.

"How about I give you an idea?"

Shen Ya waved to Miss Li.

Miss Li actually came over and wanted to hear Shen Ya's opinion.

"You should have someone stronger than the Mahayana in your family. Find them and let's play a trick of substituting one for another. You will be Qiulin's partner, and I will run away."

Shen Ya looked at Miss Li expectantly, wanting to see her nod.

Since she is also from Fengcheng and this Miss Li can come and go in the Qiu family, her identity must be extraordinary.

There should be helpers at home.

If I encourage her to help, maybe I can escape.

Who knew that Miss Li rolled her eyes at Shen Ya and said, "Do you think I'm a fool?"

"This is Brother Qiulin's covenant ceremony. If I mess up at this time, not only Brother Qiulin, but my father and the Qiu family will probably punish me."

"Is it because of Qiulin that he has such a big face?"

"Brother Qiulin is the most talented person in the Qiu family and the designated successor. How can he not be angry if his bond-making ceremony is disturbed?"

Shen Ya didn't expect that although Miss Li looked not very smart, her IQ was still high.

I wasn't tempted by her suggestion at all.

"Don't think I don't know your little thoughts. You just want me to make trouble so that Brother Qiulin will hate me."

As she said this she looked around.

Apparently he noticed that there were other people around.

“…I set up a barrier.”

Shen Ya was speechless.

This Miss Li has some brains, but not much.

"Since you're not here to cause trouble, then why are you here so aggressively? You can't be here to see what I look like, right?"

Unexpectedly, Miss Li actually nodded.

"I wanted to see what kind of peerless beauty Brother Qiulin likes so much. Now I see——"

She looked Shen Ya up and down and said with contempt, "Nothing more than that."

"I became a Taoist partner with him, and you are not angry at all?"

Shen Ya wanted to encourage her a little more.

Unexpectedly, Miss Li waved her hand, looking extremely confident.

"It's not like Taoist couples won't separate. Maybe in a few years, the two of you will regret your engagement, and then I'll have another chance."

Becoming a Taoist couple does not mean that the two are bound together forever. In some cases, the contract can be broken, but it requires paying a price.

"I don't think you two will last long like this."

What Miss Li said makes so much sense.

For a moment, Shen Ya didn't know how to refute.

"...I heard the curse you just uttered. When Qiulin comes, I will tell him exactly what happened."

Miss Li's eyes suddenly widened, and she pointed at Shen Ya with disbelief, "You... cunning woman, I won't let you succeed. I'm going to tell Brother Qiulin that you led me to say this."

As she said that, Miss Li picked up her skirt and ran out, as if she was really afraid that Shen Ya would tell Qiulin about it.

the other side.

Qiulin knew that Shen Ya wanted to see him.

He smiled and didn't seem afraid that Shen Ya would know about this.

"My Taoist friend wants to see me, how can I refuse?"
