Si Jia was in a very, very bad mood. As she thought about that large and round face, and those abnormal and perverted actions, her chest started to heave with anger. If he wasn’t her cousin…if it wasn’t for his family being powerful…bear it, I must bear it!

“Miss Si Jia, are you alright?” Yun Die asked after hesitating a little. She was passing by and saw Si Jia’s ugly complexion.

It seemed she had left in a hurry, and when she returned she was in this state.

“Ah…I’m fine, I’m great. Thank you for asking.” Si Jia said with great gusto as she regained her senses.

Yun Die nodded. She didn’t have a habit of peeping into the affairs of others. Since Si Jia didn’t want to speak about it, she wouldn’t ask.

“I will be leaving first. If teacher has need of anything, I ask Miss Si Jia to please help him.”

“You must leave?” Si Jia had a strange complexion. If it weren’t for her father’s order before, she definitely wouldn’t have taken a single step out.

Yun Die could guess her thoughts but found it difficult to explain it in a way that wouldn’t give rise to other ideas. Her teacher’s treatment process was incredibly ‘unusual’ and it was hard to learn anything directly from it.

“Mm…I haven’t showered in these last few days so I’ve been feeling a little uncomfortable. I’ll return soon.”

Si Jia had an envious expression. Thinking about it, this made sense. Yun Die was a disciple of her teacher, so why should she be afraid of not having a chance to study with him? It was unlike herself, who needed to stay here without eating or washing.

After watching Yun Die leave, Si Jia glanced at the opened array formation which isolated the outside from the inside. When would Mister Ning Qin come out? There wasn’t much time until the Beast King War began.

Suddenly, Si Jia furrowed her eyebrows together. She felt as if she had forgotten something.

But what was it?

Moments later, the perturbed Si Jia’s eyes flew open. She finally realized what she had forgotten about.

Damn it!

Those bastards from Foreign Affairs, they actually arranged Dou Zhan’s dwelling area right beside Mister Ning Qin and Yun Die’s!

Yun Die had returned just now. With Dou Zhan’s debased personality, what would happen if they crossed paths?

Even an idiot could tell!

She quickly stood up and left a message to Rong Wei and his disciple that she needed to deal with something. Then, she ran outside.

Don’t meet, please don’t meet!

But in this world, there is a saying that the more you don’t want something to happen, the more likely it is to occur.

…

Young master Dou Zhan had eaten his fill on the way to the Hidden Fog Sect. Now that he had personally killed off his newly acquired bed-warming maid, there was nothing fun he could find to do, so he started walking about in boredom.

Although his mother’s brother was only an Elder of the Hidden Fog Sect, his family’s strength was enough for him to run rampant. With a group of guards in tow, he started to wander about like a locust. The Hidden Fog Sect’s guards had already received the news ahead of time and kept their distance from them; they didn’t even want to encounter this young master.

When Yun Die turned a corner, the sounds of reckless laughing interrupted her train of thought. She couldn’t help but furrow her eyebrows and look over. In a small lake amidst several dwellings, a female cultivator of the Hidden Fog Sect had been driven into the water. Every time she tried to escape, she would be pushed back.

At the edge of the small lake, there was a group of young men. The one leading them was a fat youth. He was sweeping his eyes over the female cultivator’s wet clothes, a look of excitement across his face as her clothes clung tightly to her body.

Before being received by her teacher, Yun Die had been alone by herself for many years. She had seen countless situations where the strong bullied the weak with their power.

Although she was angry, she wouldn’t mind the business of others. This was because she was well aware that her current status and identity were granted to her by her teacher. Even if she wasn’t able to help him, she absolutely could not make things more difficult for him.

Yun Die lowered her head and turned around. Just as she was about to leave in another direction there was an excited shout, “Young master, look over there! It’s a beauty, a great beauty!”

Her heart sank. As expected, when she looked up that fat young man was staring at her, burning heat and greed in his eyes. This caused her to recall many bad memories and her face instantly turned icy cold.

Dou Zhan’s eyes brightened. It was this type, this cold and frosty personality that looked at him with loathing; it completely matched his tastes. What he wanted to see the most was this type of proud and haughty woman struggling fiercely beneath his body, her face full of pain and sorrow.

He waved his hand and shouted, “Stop her!”

Yun Die frowned. She coldly said, “What are you doing?” She didn’t want to cause problems for her teacher, but this didn’t mean she was afraid of trouble. As long as she didn’t provoke trouble on her own initiative, she was sure her teacher would uphold justice for her.

An imposing aura and attitude, it was hard to explain how to sense these things. But, an approximate understanding was that a person had something they could depend on that gave them confidence, and someone would naturally send out an aura that ‘I’m not easy to deal with.’

Dou Zhan was a person who ‘wasn’t easy to deal with’. Thus, he could clearly sense a similar atmosphere coming from this beautiful lavender-haired girl in front of him.

This caused the desire to conquer within Dou Zhan’s heart to soar into the skies. His lips curved up in a frivolous smile. Perhaps he should teach this little girl a lesson so she would understand that even things like imposing auras were also divided into levels!

Taking a look across the entire Hidden Fog Sect, he could act without fear of reprisal. What could this young woman in front of him do?

Dou Zhan stepped forward and calmly smiled. “My name is Dou Zhan. I just arrived at the Hidden Fog Sect today and I am lonely because I have no friends here. I wonder if miss can be my friend and accompany me for some time.

“Miss, rest assured that I am very gentle and I will not allow miss to feel any discomfort. If you don’t believe me then you can come with me…”

Yun Die’s eyes were ice cold. But before she could respond, a shout rang through the air. “Dou Zhan, close your dog mouth! If you dare be so insolent again, I will not forgive you!”

Shua –

With the sound of breaking air, Si Jia flew down from the skies. When she saw Yun Die in perfectly fine form, she let out a long breath of relief. If Yun Die really had been molested in broad daylight, then the entire Hidden Fog Sect would have had to pay the price!

She was lucky to have caught up in time!

“Miss Yun Die, I am extremely sorry that Dou Zhan bothered you, and allow me to apologize in his place. I ask that Miss Yun Die please not feel offended!” Si Jia earnestly said.

Yun Die furrowed her eyebrows. “Miss Si Jia recognizes that person?”

Si Jia awkwardly said, “He is my younger cousin.”

Yun Die nodded. Without saying anything further, she turned and left.

Si Jia relaxed inside. If Yun Die wasn’t so forgiving, this matter would have been difficult to deal with. She turned and glared at Dou Zhan, clenching her teeth as she said, “If you dare to cause any more trouble, I will immediately write a letter to aunty and tell her what happened. Don’t believe me? Try it.”

Dou Zhan shrugged. “Cousin, don’t you think you are making a fuss over nothing? I just want to become friends with Miss Yun Die. I wasn’t even able to say two words before you ruined everything. You have to know that mother hopes I will get married as soon as possible so I can start my own family. If she learns of this, she might blame you instead.”

Si Jia’s complexion was icy cold. She ignored his arrogant remarks and said, “I will remind you once more. No matter how arrogant or moronic you are normally, this is the Hidden Fog Sect and not your Dou Family! As for that young miss just now, you had best stay far away from her and not provoke her ever again. Do you hear me?”

Dou Zhan’s eyes shrank and he rubbed his chin. “To have cousin treat this situation so seriously, it seems that Miss Yun Die’s status isn’t ordinary. Can you tell me what is so special about her background?”

Si Jia said without expression, “Just remember what I’ve said!”

She turned and left.

No one knew of Mister Ning Qin’s true status. Otherwise, if this matter became noisy, even her father would be implicated.

Perhaps she should find a way to urge Yun Die to leave this place, lest she meet Dou Zhan again.

As for that bastard, although she had warned him, Si Jia still didn’t have much confidence he would heed her words.

…

Watching Si Jia walk far away, Dou Zhan smiled. “Interesting, how interesting.”

It had been a long time since he had encountered such a challenge.

Sixth Uncle hesitated for a moment before saying, “Young master, that miss’ background isn’t poor. Perhaps it’s better not to provoke her.”

Dou Zhan’s smile stiffened. He turned his head. Sixth Uncle curved his waist lower and there was a forced smile on his face.

The surrounding guards subconsciously stepped backwards, panic rising on their faces.

“Sixth Uncle, you also believe that I cannot mess with her?”

“Young master, you know that isn’t my meaning…alright, alright, young master is unparalleled in this world, and no one can mess with you!”

Dou Zhan snapped his fingers. “That’s exactly it. Since Sixth Uncle also agrees, then I’ll have to bother you to make a trip and find out the actual situation behind that young girl. I will be waiting for your good news.”

He turned and left.

As for that female cultivator from the Hidden Fog Sect, she took advantage of everyone being occupied to climb up from the water and run away. To an extent, this proved that just because someone did something good, it didn’t mean that good things would happen to them.

Sixth Uncle straightened himself up. He stared off in the direction that Dou Zhan left in, and his expression returned. His eyes were full of placid indifference.

“Young master, this is the choice you made. It has nothing to do with me.”

With a dark sigh, Sixth Uncle turned and left. After taking a few steps, his figure vanished into the air like a shadow.
