I'm his wife, how come I don't know?

Jiang Chu stood outside the door with a cold sweat of embarrassment on his forehead.

His eyes inadvertently swept to the side and saw a thin layer of sweat on the waiter's head. Then he suddenly realized that he had knocked on the wrong door.

He smiled awkwardly: "Oh, sorry, I came here to look for my servant. It's my first time here and I got the wrong door."

Xiao Yu'er behind Ling seemed to be accustomed to this kind of scene. He rolled his eyes at Jiang Chu with a barely perceptible sarcasm on his lips.

Jiang Chu's embarrassment did not decrease, but became more obvious.

After the embarrassment came surprise and surprise. I didn’t expect Si Ling would actually live in the mortal world.

As a direct disciple of the Sword Sect and number one on the direct disciple list, Si Ling actually did not live in the sect. This was really beyond his expectations.

Si Ling did not respond, but just stood there quietly, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

Jiang Chu felt the air was cold and suffocating, and he coughed lightly.

Trying to ease the awkward atmosphere, he said, "I won't bother you anymore. I'm leaving now." After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.

Si Ling still maintained his indifferent attitude, tilted his head, and then gently closed the door.

Jiang Chu left as if he was escaping, his pace unconsciously quickening, as if something was chasing him from behind.

Only after entering the waiter's house did Jiang Chu quietly breathe a sigh of relief.

As expected, Si Ling, who eventually turned evil and became the strongest villain, always gave him a strong sense of oppression when he was around.

Those eyes seemed calm, but there was no warmth underneath them, and they even contained cold questioning and scrutiny.

His every move and gesture showed the ethereal and non-confrontational attitude of a celestial being, and he also exuded a righteous aura, but Jiang Chu knew that it was all superficial.

What kind of person the real Si Ling is is impossible to figure out, and it is not mentioned in the first half of the book. Maybe it is mentioned in the final ending or in the extra chapter, but Jiang Chu has no way of knowing.

The waiter hurriedly cleaned up the main room, put out new bedding and pillows, wiped the sweat from his head, and looked very apologetic.

"I'm sorry, Master. Time is running out. I can only prepare to this extent."

"It's okay, go and do your work, don't worry about me." Jiang Chu sent the waiter away and closed the door.

Looking around the clean and fresh room, knowing the waiter's intentions, she sighed and walked to the bed.

Lying on the soft cotton bedding, a faint fragrance enters my nostrils.

Looking at the clean ceiling of the wooden bed, Jiang Chu picked his feet.

His reputation was already bad, and the servants behind Si Ling clearly looked down on him.

Si Ling wouldn't think he did it on purpose, right?

Jiang Chu rolled over twice on the bed. It was too coincidental and too deliberate.

After rolling around until he was tired, Jiang Chu fell asleep in a daze.

-

"Buzz——" A low and continuous vibration came from the jade pendant on Jiang Chu's waist, and he slowly opened his eyes.

Unlike the refreshed feeling he had when he woke up in the cave in the past, this night's sleep did not seem to bring him the proper recovery. Instead, it made him feel unspeakably tired.

This unprecedented experience made Jiang Chu realize how precious his original cave was.

He took a deep breath, trying to dispel the uneasiness in his heart, then he waved his hand and the jade token appeared in his palm.

The jade token emitted a soft, white light, and a face that he was quite familiar with appeared on it - Cheng'an.

This face was full of anxiety, which made Jiang Chu frown involuntarily.

He lazily tapped the jade token to enlarge it, and Cheng'an's anxious voice immediately broke the tranquility of the early morning.

"Senior Brother Jiang! Something big has happened!" Cheng An's voice was like rapid drumbeats, hitting Jiang Chu's eardrums.

Jiang Chu frowned slightly and waved the jade slip, moving it further away from himself to reduce the impact of the sound.

"What's the matter? Why are you so flustered?" Jiang Chu's voice was full of displeasure.

"The master of Baihua Peak has come out of seclusion, and the entire Longyin Immortal Mansion knows that one million high-quality spirit stones have been stolen." Cheng'an almost shouted, and every word was like a heavy hammer hitting Jiang Chu's heart.

Jiang Chu's expression changed slightly. As soon as he heard the news, doubts arose in his heart.

Could it be that no one knew that he had returned the spirit stone to his master? His master had not returned it.

Master has always been kind to him and would not harm him for no reason.

Although Jiang Chu had some doubts in his heart, his trust in his master remained unshaken.

Seeing Jiang Chu's bad face, Cheng An's eyes flashed with cunning, and he hurriedly said: "Brother, where are you now? Junior brother has a plan."

Jiang Chu looked at Cheng An's malicious eyes and became alert, but he remained calm on the surface: "Tell me."

Cheng An looked around and lowered his voice: "Brother, you can use another mustard seed bag to seal up some treasures. I am willing to help you keep them."

Jiang Chu sneered in his heart, he knew that Cheng An was trying to trick him, if one plan failed he would come up with another, he just wanted his spirit stone.

One million high-quality spirit stones is an astronomical figure for anyone.

Even though he was the most extravagant person in the entire fairy world, the wealth in his entire cave added up would definitely not exceed hundreds of thousands of high-quality spirit stones.

A gleam of determination flashed in Jiang Chu's eyes. He knew that this matter would not end so easily.

He needs to be more cautious and at the same time be prepared to deal with possible storms.

He didn't know why his master didn't return the spirit stone he gave him, but it was better for it to be in his master's hands than in the hands of the demons.

Once this huge amount of spirit stones falls into the hands of the demons, they will be able to win over more people in the human world and the immortal world and lay out a more far-reaching chess game.

Jiang Chu's heart tightened. He bit the back of his teeth, but did not rush to refute. Instead, he pretended to be in deep thought, but his mind was rapidly calculating.

Seeing this, Cheng An continued, “Brother Jiang, don’t hesitate any longer.

Once they arrive, they won't tell you clearly why they're taking you back, but if the senior brother and the others find a million spirit stones on you, based on their attitude toward you, they will definitely punish you severely."

Jiang Chu nodded seriously, as if he was convinced: "So, this is the only way. Cheng'an, there is a restriction on my mustard bag, you can't be greedy."

Cheng An secretly mocked himself in his heart, but on the surface he acted extremely respectful: "Brother Jiang, I will always be the most loyal to you."

Two people with ulterior motives met in a secret place in the world of cultivation.

Jiang Chu threw a seemingly ordinary mustard bag to Cheng An, who took it excitedly, not knowing that it was just a cover.

In order to prevent Cheng An from discovering the truth, Jiang Chu deliberately changed the subject: "Let's go back to the Immortal Gate."

Cheng An was anxious, but he had to pretend to obey: "Brother, why don't I find a place to hide first and wait for things to calm down——"

"No need." Jiang Chu interrupted him, his tone full of unquestionable firmness.

"Master is the one who protects me the most. He won't really search me. Leaving me with you is just an extra layer of insurance."

Before Cheng An could retort, Jiang Chu had already grabbed his shoulders and stepped onto his own sapling together.

Cheng An was anxious and wanted to pass on the message secretly, but Jiang Chu was a big devil and Cheng An's every move could not escape his eyes.

Jiang Chu lay down on the sapling and yawned: "My legs suddenly feel a little sore."

Cheng'an's hand paused slightly. Although he was anxious, he had to kneel in front of Jiang Chu like a lackey and massage his legs for him.

Before reaching Longyin Immortal Mansion, the jade slip had already sounded.

It was Lu Shuyan's cold face. Jiang Chu's heart sank. He pursed his lips and clicked on the jade slip.

Lu Shuyan's voice was cold and unquestionable: "Go back to Longyin Immortal Mansion, now!" He cut off the call after he finished speaking.

Cheng An took advantage of the situation and continued to instigate: "Big Brother is really going too far. He doesn't treat you as his junior brother at all."

Jiang Chu put away the jade slip unhappily and looked at Cheng An with a squinting eye: "Oh?"

"Parents, relatives, and even friends always keep their memories fixed at the age when you are best able to handle them. No matter how old you are, no matter how capable you are, they will still do so."

Jiang Chu's face turned ugly in an instant, and murderous intent spread in his heart again.

He almost killed Cheng An just now, and his hand was almost cutting off his neck.

He suppressed his anger and murderous intent, his face still showing the paleness of the spiritual power fighting back.

Seeing Jiang Chu's expression, Cheng An was filled with malice.

He was secretly proud of himself, thinking that Jiang Chu had fallen into his trap.

Alas, the envoy really had a good eye in choosing me. If someone else had come, they might have ended up in such a mess.
