Free Web NovelThough Shen Baiwei had never been in a relationship in her limited life, she experienced the “joy” of “wanting to break up, but the other person won’t let go” with Fang Ji.
When she tried to leave Fang Ji and go by herself to find the scoundrel who had touched the past through unknown means, only to be stealthily followed by Fang Ji, she suddenly understood why Fang Ji wouldn’t let her go, and how much trouble he could bring her.
Imagine, when you go out to do something, you are followed by a pervert for some special reason...
And this pervert, by casually touching an inconspicuous stone on the roadside, can summon terrifying monsters; by seemingly walking casually on the street, he can trigger mechanisms that change the terrain, turning streets into rivers, making flat ground rise into dozens of meters high hills, and causing roaring mudslides to surge down the hills...
Can things still get done? They can’t!
Whether she can safely reach her destination is an unknown.
It’s so annoying!
It must be said that the current Miracle Saint Fang Ji’s comprehension of miracle has reached a state of perfection.
When a person deeply understands what kind of situation, timing, and preconditions can trigger a miracle, he can naturally, through reverse thinking, know when ill fortune can be triggered.
“How can this ♦ also die?” and “How can this ♦ not die?” Aren’t they both miracles?
Therefore, even without the fragrant blessing of the miracle flower, and being entangled by ill fortune, he can still utilize ill fortune in a short period of time.
Of course, this is just Shen Baiwei’s personal opinion; she doesn’t know what kind of hellish training Fang Ji went through at the Disaster’s place before mastering this skill...
Practice makes perfect, as it were.
The only thing to be thankful for is that Fang Ji can still communicate normally and has not yet shown signs of developing into a yandere. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
“Cough, cough...” Shen Baiwei looked at Fang Ji, adjusted her breathing slightly, and compromised, “Let’s agree first, once I help you find the Elders of the Miracle Order, I’ll leave. I won’t stay a moment longer.”
“Actually, I’m doing this for you and your Miracle Order’s plan, you know? Didn’t I explain it to you before? It’s because someone touched the past, which disturbed my authority, that I’m feeling unwell.”
“Now, I don’t know what that guy’s purpose was in touching the past. If I don’t stop him, Yumen Pass might undergo unimaginable changes. By then, whether you can successfully awaken Hong Bian Monk, and whether he can fulfill his wish upon awakening, will be uncertain.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Ji’s eyelids twitched, and his mood inexplicably grew a bit heavier.
Although he had once envisioned influencing the present by touching the past to achieve his goal of preventing the First Generation Miracle Saint from reappearing.
But before that, he had indeed overlooked a very important point: if someone were to touch the past to help the First Generation Holy Child eliminate the only flaw in his descent ritual, perhaps no one in this world would ever be able to stop the First Generation Holy Child from repeatedly descending again.
Thinking of this, Fang Ji nodded at Shen Baiwei with an inexplicably serious expression, “No problem. Once I’ve reunited with the Elders, you can leave anytime. If you need it, I’m even willing to provide any help I can.”
“That sounds nice, but...” Shen Baiwei rolled her eyes, then her gaze dropped to Fang Ji’s hand, which was gripping her wrist tightly. “If you could let go of my hand before saying that, the credibility would be much higher.”
You even used a Forbidden Spell (sealing Spell), do you think my spiritual system is broken? Is there no trust left between people? Shen Baiwei grumbled inwardly, rubbing her slightly throbbing temples.
“Uh... hehe, a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding.” Fang Ji chuckled awkwardly, releasing the sealing Spell and letting go of Shen Baiwei’s hand as he spoke. He silently retreated behind her, his overly charming eyes fixed on her back.
That chilling gaze, like an evil spirit or a perverted killer from a horror movie staring at an unlucky supporting character, would be absolutely deadly if a sinister, ill-intentioned smile were added to it!
As if sensing the gaze sweeping back and forth behind her, Shen Baiwei shivered slightly, then shook her head helplessly and stepped forward. freeweɓnøvel.com
Seriously, she’s clearly blessed with stunning beauty that appeals to both genders, so why is she such a pervert?
Thinking this, she adjusted her glasses and casually pulled out the small notebook and quill she carried with her.
Shielding Fang Ji’s prying gaze with her body, she opened the small notebook, rummaged through it for a moment, found Fang Ji’s relevant reading record, and then added the labels “stalker,” “clingy,” and “verbose” after descriptions like “male with a female appearance,” “charm comparable to a Witch Seed,” and “slightly cunning.”

On the other side, about two kilometers from the brothel building, in a secluded small courtyard surrounded by residential houses of various sizes, two figures were gravely helping a dozen men in Black Armor deal with their injuries, both light and severe.
This small courtyard once belonged to a good Sister Xia Lianqing befriended in Daimu Courtyard.
When she first infiltrated Daimu Courtyard, that woman only thought she was an unfortunate woman who had fallen into a lowly status, and took great care of her. Later, that woman was redeemed by a wealthy merchant passing through Yumen Pass and went to Luoyang.
When she left, the woman left this small courtyard, which she had secretly bought earlier, asking Xia Lianqing to look after it, saying, “If he ever wrongs me, I will return.”
Since that woman left, Xia Lianqing would send someone to clean this residence every ten days to half a month. By now, it had been over three years, and that woman had not returned, so she must be doing quite well in Luoyang.
Earlier, these Long Xiang Army Armored Soldiers, who had attempted to leave the city and rendezvous with the Nanling Commander, unexpectedly encountered the main force of the Arslan Tribe, one of the strongest tribes under the Shaman King.
After a fierce battle, a team of over fifty people was reduced to only twenty-one, and those who managed to escape were all injured.
When they found Xia Lianqing’s maid A Yun for help, A Yun, who often cleaned this small courtyard on behalf of Xia Lianqing, took it upon herself to temporarily house them here.
...
Upon arriving at the small courtyard and helping A Yun busy herself with treating the Long Xiang Army Armored Soldiers’ wounds, Xia Lianqing found the team leader, and after briefly understanding the situation, she couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
“Brother Qin, since you’ve returned inside the city gate, why don’t you go back to the main camp?”
Lu Yibei, who had been secretly observing for a long time, nodded, looking like a perfect spectator, just missing a bag of melon seeds.
However, she still had spicy strips.
When she secretly hid a spicy strip in her palm and stealthily enjoyed it, just like someone secretly eating snacks in class, she completely transformed into a qualified spectator.
“...”
So fragrant!
Emmm, this woman makes sense!

After barely escaping death, why not return to the main camp for help, and instead come to her, a weak woman... or rather, not-so-strong informant? Lu Yibei thought.
She also felt that these Long Xiang Army’s actions of coming to Xia Lianqing were very strange. If it were her, and she was ambushed by hostile forces while out, the first thing she would do after escaping would definitely be to find Ju Meng or the Night Watch.
After all, they have more people.
Sitting opposite Xia Lianqing was a dark-skinned man with a square face. Hearing Xia Lianqing’s words, his brows furrowed, and he sighed deeply, “Alas, Miss Xia, you don’t know, it’s not that we don’t want to go back, it’s just...”
Mid-sentence, he paused, glanced towards a certain direction outside the small courtyard, and then lowered his voice, “Miss Xia, you should also know that the Demon Monk’s prestige in the city has been growing day by day in recent years, even subtly showing signs of rivaling the General...”
“Could it be that Demon Monk who won’t let you go back?” Xia Lianqing asked in surprise.
She only knew that Hong Bian Monk was secretly involved in some shady dealings, but she hadn’t expected that Hong Bian Monk had already begun to openly meddle in city affairs.
This was simply too bold!
“Not exactly.” Old Qin explained, “It’s just that ever since the news of the General’s demise spread, that Demon Monk has been advocating not to leave the city gate, claiming he has his own way to solve the crisis. Not only have the common people in the city believed this, but even some of our brothers in the army have believed it.”
“You don’t know, right now, the atmosphere throughout the entire main camp is very strange. Old Qin himself can barely stand it anymore, so it’s better not to go back. However, we came to you mainly because Dragon Commandant instructed us before he became unconscious not to let that Demon Monk know our whereabouts.”
“Dragon Commandant also said that this encounter with the main force of the Arslan Tribe doesn’t seem like an accident...”
Hearing this, Xia Lianqing nodded, turned to look at the room where Dragon Tang was housed deep inside the courtyard, and whispered, “He’s worried that Demon Monk has colluded with the Shaman King, isn’t he?”
Upon hearing this, Old Qin’s face showed excitement, and he slapped his uninjured hand on his thigh, saying, “That’s exactly what I mean!”
“Heh, that kid is really interesting. A few days ago, he said he would hate me even if he died, but now he comes looking for me. Isn’t he afraid I’ll leak the news to the Shaman King again?” Xia Lianqing sneered.
Of course, it’s because he knows you, this informant, aren’t professional. After what happened last time, you’re definitely going to side with the Nanling Commander! Lu Yibei rolled her eyes at Xia Lianqing, grumbling inwardly.
“Actually...” Old Qin chuckled awkwardly, slowly pulling out a black silk brocade pouch embroidered with a Chiwen totem from his In arms (bosom), and handed it to Xia Lianqing, saying, “Actually, the General instructed Duwei to do this. This brocade pouch was given to Duwei by the General.”
Seeing the /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ brocade pouch, Lu Yibei crossed her arms over her chest and shook her head expressionlessly.
It’s over. If this woman was still a bit indecisive before, she’s probably completely sided with the Nanling Commander now.
Not only did he use this woman to fake his death, but now he’s also playing the emotional card to get her to help with other things...
Who knew our Commander Prince was so good at playing games? Lu Yibei thought.
In her opinion, if she were to betray someone who had deep feelings for her, and that person still unconditionally trusted her, she would absolutely do her best if she had the chance to help that person.
And not just her, it could be said that a large portion of people are like this...
While Lu Yibei was pondering, Xia Lianqing had already finished reading the note in the brocade pouch. Her hands slowly dropped, and a bitter smile appeared on her face.
What was written on the note? Why did her expression suddenly change? Lu Yibei frowned slightly.
She tried to lean closer, wanting to see the contents of the note, but Xia Lianqing had tightly clutched the note in her hand after reading it. She didn’t dare to make physical contact with Xia Lianqing, so she could only give up.
“Mhm.” Xia Lianqing responded, “Don’t worry, I’ll find a way for them to safely reunite with the General.”
Just like discovering someone gossiping but being unable to hear the content, Lu Yibei felt as if ants were crawling all over her body. Suddenly, she heard Xia Lianqing’s words, looked at Xia Lianqing, and thoughtfully nodded, pinching her chin.
It seems the Nanling Commander might have asked this woman for help with something, ensuring that his remaining subordinates in Yumen Pass could successfully meet him, but without fully revealing his plan to her...
This woman feels that she is no longer trusted by her beloved, so she is sad?
However, trust, once a crack appears, is inherently difficult to repair. One can only say it’s self-inflicted...
After trying to analyze Xia Lianqing’s state of mind, Lu Yibei glanced at the disheartened Xia Lianqing and pouted.
Sister, at a time like this, you should learn from the mindset of those obsessive bootlickers.
Looking at it from another perspective, it can actually be understood that your lover was worried about you being too burdened, which is why he gave you a relatively easy task.
As long as you think that way, you’ll realize “he still loves me!”
“Old Qin, arrange for everyone to rest and recover. I’m going out for a bit. This matter is of great importance, and I need to prepare well.” After a brief silence, Xia Lianqing spoke again, her words pulling Lu Yibei’s erratic thoughts back on track.
Reining in her wandering thoughts, Lu Yibei watched Xia Lianqing’s retreating back as she left the small courtyard, tilting her head and then lowering it.
“Duang! Duang, Duang!”
The moment her gaze touched her palm, a metallic clang, like the ringing of a bell, suddenly exploded in her ears. The next moment, the scene before her eyes began to blur, then vanished into thin air.
Someone is tapping my helmet!? This thought flashed through Lu Yibei’s mind.
After waiting for a moment, until her vision cleared again, Lu Yibei saw the face of that incompetent Guardian Miss.
“You’re finally awake. Weren’t you in the same room as me last night? How did you end up sleeping on the floor over here?”
Lu Yibei frowned and looked around. Upon seeing the empty room shrouded in darkness, she suddenly realized that she had left the past images and returned to reality.
Recalling the series of images she had seen earlier, she felt a moment of distraction.
Judging from the terrifying scars on Xia Lianqing after she became a urban legend, and the Black Armor Monstrosities gathered nearby, her mission had most likely failed...
So, when she came to me, was it because I successfully prevented her from committing suicide, and she realized I could influence past events, hoping I could help her complete the mission?
If this task could truly be accomplished, would the city residents, the merchants, and the scholars have a greater chance of survival? Lu Yibei thought with a heavy heart.
