807 Coquettish Little Gu, Showing Its Might and Beat Up (3)

“It’s that hostage.”

“Why don’t you just kill her? Are you worried that that person will chase you to the Sikong Manor and take revenge on you? Then let him do it. I want to see how he can resist the Sikong Clan’s Longya Guards.”

Yu Wan, who was eavesdropping happily, frowned. Damn it, he kept saying that he wanted to kill her. As expected, they were not good people like the Saintess! However… What were these Longya Guards? It seems impressive.

What Yu Wan did not know was that the Sikong Clan’s Longya Guards were an army that was a hundred times stronger than sacrificial soldiers. Their core strength was all the Asura King and Asura. Such a team was definitely not something that could be defeated with bare hands.

!!
The Saintess shook her head. “I’m not worried that he’ll take revenge on me.”

“Then you…” Sikong Yun was puzzled.

The Saintess frowned and said, “When I fought him just now, I realized that he used the Sikong Clan’s internal energy cultivation method.”

Sikong Yun’s expression turned solemn. “In that case, he’s from the Sikong Clan?”

The Saintess said, “Let me finish. He cultivates the Longevity Technique.”

Sikong Yun was stunned. “W-what? Longevity Technique? Are you sure you didn’t see it wrongly?”

The Saintess took a deep breath and slowly said, “I’m the Saintess and have the qualifications to enter the Nether Mountain. I accidentally saw the ancestor cultivating the Longevity Technique. Although, I didn’t really meet him, I won’t remember that aura wrongly.”

Sikong Yun said, “You mean… he has the aura of the ancestor?”

The Saintess said, “I only found out after reading the books that the ancestor cultivated the Sikong Clan’s Longevity Technique. Since his aura is so similar to the ancestor’s, he should have also cultivated the Longevity Technique.”

Sikong Yun pondered for a moment. “But the ancestor is the only one who cultivates the Longevity Technique…”

The Longevity Technique was originally the Sikong Clan’s secret manual. However, there were a few missing pages in the middle. Those who cultivated it would often go crazy. Gradually, the Sikong Clan prohibited their disciples from cultivating this mental cultivation technique.

The Sikong Clan’s ancestor was an exception. He had understood this mental cultivation method and mastered a peerless martial art. However, his method was only suitable for himself. No one else could imitate him and succeed.

The Saintess looked at Sikong Yun. “That’s what I wanted to ask you. Did the ancestor secretly… take in any disciples?”

Sikong Yun frowned slightly. “The ancestor accepted a lot in his early years, but they were all crippled. After that, he was disheartened and had no intention of taking in disciples anymore. However, not long after my brother’s mother passed away, my father once sent my brother to the Nether Mountain to serve the ancestor. Could it be that at that time, my brother secretly learned the ancestor’s martial arts?”

The Saintess had sparred with Sikong Changfeng and did not notice the aura of the Longevity Technique on him, but she could not rule out the possibility that he was hiding his strength. If he really hid his strength, then…

The Saintess took a deep breath and closed her eyes. “Is your brother in the manor tonight?”

“Men!”

Under Sikong Yun’s order, a guard pushed open the door and entered. “Second Young Master.”

Sikong Yun said indifferently, “What is my brother doing tonight? Has he left the manor?”

The guard replied, “Eldest Young Master left the manor during the day and returned in the evening. After that, he stayed in the manor and did not go out.”

“Are you sure?” Sikong Yun asked.

The guard said firmly, “Yes, Second Young Master. Half an hour ago, the storeroom gave you a set of calligraphy and also gave it to Eldest Young Master. It was personally handed over to his servant. At that time, Eldest Young Master was also there. After that, the kitchen made supper for Eldest Young Master. I wonder if he’s finished it now.”

Sikong Yun instructed, “Go take a look!”

“Yes!”

The guard hurriedly left. After a while, he returned to the courtyard and reported, “Second Young Master, he’s still eating. I heard that Master called Eldest Young Master over just now. Second Young Master, do you need me to ask what Master said to Eldest Young Master?”

Did he want to die by asking about his father behind his back? Sikong Yun waved his hand. “You can leave.”

The guard retreated.

“It doesn’t seem to be him,” Sikong Yun said in confusion. “But if it’s not him, who could it be?”

“Who is it?!” The Saintess’s eyes turned cold as she suddenly looked in the direction of the wall.

Oh no, she had been discovered! Yu Wan hurriedly dug herself off the wall and walked to the bed to lie down. She thought of something and returned to the table, putting the half-dead Gu worm on herself.

When the Saintess and Sikong Yun entered the room, Yu Wan was already “asleep” under the blanket.

The Saintess glanced at the passive food on the table, checked the teapot lid, and walked to the bed with a cold expression. Yu Wan slept with her back facing out. The Saintess stood in front of the bed for a while.

Yu Wan originally wanted to pretend to be asleep, but who knew that she really fell asleep. The Saintess listened to her even breathing and frowned coldly. She turned around and left.

“What’s wrong?” Sikong Yun, who was waiting at the door, asked.

“Nothing,” the Saint said.

Sikong Yun smiled faintly and said, “What are you going to do next? Let me make it clear first that my marriage with you is set for next month. If there’s anything you can’t deal with, remember to tell me. I’ll settle it for you. I don’t want to not resolve the trouble on the day of the wedding.”

The Saintess glanced at him indifferently, clearly dissatisfied with his high status. However, the other party was the second son of the Sikong Clan and his biological mother was favored. He was also highly regarded by the Sikong Clan’s head. If nothing went wrong, he, who had married her, would become the heir of the Sikong Clan.

The Saintess suppressed her dissatisfaction and said indifferently, “I have my own plans. You don’t have to worry.”

Sikong Yun said, “Then tonight…”

The Saintess glanced at him.

Sikong Yun coughed lightly. “What I mean is that such a big thing has happened to the Lan family and it’s a mess. I’m afraid it’s not convenient for you to go back…”

The Saintess looked at the night and said, “I’ll go to the Nether Mountain.”

The two of them were not married, so it was impolite for her to stay in the Sikong Manor just like that. The Nether Mountain was near the Sikong Clan’s forbidden area. Generations of Saintesses had the qualifications to enter and leave the Nether Mountain, and a Saintess Hall had been built at the foot of the Nether Mountain.

Sikong Yun smiled gently. “Actually, it’s fine even if you stay. I won’t tell anyone.”

It sounded like he was asking the Saintess to stay. But the Saintess said, “I also need to use the cold pool of the Nether Mountain to heal my injuries.”

Sikong Yun patted his head. “That’s true. You’re so seriously injured. It’s best if you can soak in the cold pool. In that case, I won’t keep you anymore. I’ll get someone to prepare the palanquin. I still have something on, so I’ll get busy first.”

The Saintess nodded. Sikong Yun left politely. The Saintess then left the courtyard.

Yu Wan slept for a while and was woken up by Little Gu.
