Jiang Nan Ke is the heroine of the original book. Just her frown and smile are enough to control non-staff members like Ji Xiuzhu.

Jiangnan Ke saw Ji Xiuzhu staring at him, and his eyes moved. He asked, "Senior Ji, why are you looking at me like this? Is there something dirty on my face?"

Ji Xiuzhu finally came back to his senses, his face slightly reddened, he coughed and said, "Miss Jiang is so beautiful, I can't get enough of her."

She said this, but in her heart she was thinking, I wonder who will end up marrying such a beautiful woman.

Or maybe her disciples have good taste, they think the heroine is pretty. If she were a man, he might really fall in love with her if he took a closer look at her.

When Jiang Nanke heard this, her cheeks flushed and she lowered her head shyly.

She was secretly delighted in her heart. Since Ji Xiuzhu praised her like this, did she have some affection for her?

If Ji Xiuzhu could be attracted by her appearance, it would not be useless.

Thinking of this, Jiang Nanke's heart was pounding, and a different feeling quietly grew in his heart.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew, lifting Jiangnan Ke's skirt and also stirring the spring water in her heart.

She raised her head and met Ji Xiuzhu's gaze. They smiled at each other, as if time had stopped at this moment.

However, at this moment, a discordant voice broke the silence.

"Humph, she's just a pretty woman."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ji Xiuzhu and Jiang Nanke looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man in fancy clothes walking towards them. His eyes were full of disdain and provocation when he looked at Jiang Nanke.

Ji Xiuzhu took a closer look and found that the person coming was Hu Yin.

Hu Yin looked Jiang Nan Ke up and down, with a mocking smile on his face.

"Master, you are interested in a woman like this? Your taste is getting worse and worse. If it's just because of her appearance, then isn't my appearance good enough for you?"

After Hu Yin finished speaking, he pushed Jiang Nanke away and sat down next to Ji Xiuzhu.

After hearing Hu Yin's words, Ji Xiuzhu felt a tremor in his heart.

Ji Xiuzhu: What's wrong with this guy? I was just having a conversation with Jiang Nanke, and he got so anxious? It seems like he likes the heroine quite a lot! Tsk tsk tsk.

After hearing this, Jiang Nanke couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart.

She looked directly into Huyin's eyes and responded without showing any weakness: "Brother Huyin is so rude, do you think you are much more noble than others? Nan Ke doesn't remember when she offended Brother Huyin, how could she let him humiliate her like this?"

Seeing this, Ji Xiuzhu quickly stood up and stood in front of Jiang Nanke, saying to Huyin: "Huyin, stop talking nonsense. Miss Jiang is the chief of Qingyun Sect, you must not be rude."

Hu Yin stood up suddenly, pointed at Ji Xiuzhu and shouted: "Master, you are going to turn against me for this woman?"

Ji Xiuzhu's face darkened, and after a second of silence, he slowly said, "Huyin, watch your words! I was just defending Miss Jiang. When did I turn against you? Besides, Miss Jiang is the chief of Qingyun Sect, and she really won't tolerate your insolence!"

Hu Yin sneered, then without saying a word, he snorted coldly at Jiangnan Ke, then turned around and left.

Ji Xiuzhu looked at Hu Yin's departing back and sighed inwardly.

He knew that Goin had always had special feelings for her, but she only saw Goin as a disciple and friend.

And at this moment, she seemed to realize that Hu Yin's feelings towards Jiang Nan Ke had also changed.

To Jiang Nan Ke, her eldest disciple seemed more like an enemy than a love interest.

Jiang Nanke looked at Ji Xiuzhu gratefully and said softly, "Nan Ke will not take today's incident to heart. Since Senior Brother Hu Yin hates Nan Ke so much, Nan Ke will come again tomorrow."

"Alright." Ji Xiuzhu nodded, "Miss Jiang, take care. You can also take this map back with you. I will come find you after I finish studying it."

After hearing this, Jiang Nanke thought for a moment, then nodded and left with the map.

After Jiang Nanke left, Ji Xiuzhu called a disciple and instructed, "Go tell the Great Elder that I will not attend the speech of the new disciple."

After receiving the order, the disciple immediately ran to pass on the message.

Ji Xiuzhu sat alone in the room, with a lot of thoughts in her mind. She knew Hu Yin's temper and where his hostility towards Jiang Nanke came from. She sighed and decided to find a chance to have a good talk with Hu Yin and untie his knot.

The next day, Jiangnan Ke arrived as promised. She stood in front of Ji Xiuzhu's door and knocked gently.

"Please come in." Ji Xiuzhu's voice came from inside the house.

Jiangnan Ke pushed the door open and saw Ji Xiuzhu sitting at the table with a scroll in his hand, seemingly studying something.

"Senior Ji." Jiang Nanke called softly.

Ji Xiuzhu looked up and said with a smile: "Miss Jiang, you are here. Please take a seat."

After Ji Xiuzhu finished speaking, he continued to immerse himself in his research.

"I wonder if the senior has discovered anything while studying this map?" Jiang Nanke asked.

Ji Xiuzhu unfolded the map, pointed to one of the places and said, "The place depicted in this map is quite mysterious. I have heard that there is a secret place hidden in an ancient mountain range, which may be related to this map. Moreover, this map is somewhat similar to the one you brought yesterday."

Jiang Nanke's eyes lit up: "If we can find this secret place, maybe we can solve the secret of this picture."

Ji Xiuzhu nodded slightly: "But this secret realm is extremely dangerous. It may be difficult for me to enter with my strength. I need to find a few powerful people to go with me."

Jiang Nanke lowered his head and thought for a moment: "I know a few good friends who are all very powerful. Maybe I can invite them to go with me."

Ji Xiuzhu smiled and said, "That's great."

As for who the friend Jiang Nanke was talking about, she wasn't interested at all.

"In that case, Miss Jiang, please leave quickly." Ji Xiuzhu said calmly.

Jiangnan Ke nodded slightly to show his agreement.

She thought to herself that she must be fully prepared for this trip to the secret realm and there must not be any mistakes.

After Jiang Nanke left, Ji Xiuzhu's eyes became deep. She gently stroked the book on the table, thinking about something.

"What exactly is the secret in this picture..." Ji Xiuzhu murmured in a low voice, "The Dao pattern in my body actually has a mutual induction with it. No matter what, I must find out the truth about this matter."

She decided to investigate this secret place herself and find out the truth hidden in it.

Ji Xiuzhu began to prepare, consulting various materials and looking for clues about the ancient mountain.

At the same time, she also hopes that Jiang Nan Ke can find a reliable partner to embark on this adventure full of unknowns together.

After all, she didn't think Jiang Nanke was invincible at the moment.
