Qi Yu and Chen Xi looked outside together.
They saw that the person who walked in was actually... a black-clothed girl that Qi Yu had never seen before.
This girl had black hair reaching her waist, wore a veil on her head, and a black silk ribbon on her body. Her posture was graceful, slender, and delicate. Her hands were long and straight, with clean, rounded fingernails.
Qi Yu was stunned.
She swore that in her past life or this life, she had never seen this woman!
The black-clothed woman walked up to Xue Mo Sha, her red lips curved upwards. She neither bowed nor greeted. She didn't even bother to introduce herself, but simply stood with her arms crossed, looking arrogant and cool.
Qi Yu glanced at Xue Mo Sha with some confusion.
To her surprise, Xue Mo Sha not only didn't get angry but also put on a smiling face and proactively introduced: "This is Miss Shu Xian. Her surname is Fa. You can call her Elder Fa. From now on, she will be my equal."
Yu Zhen showed a surprised expression on her face and turned to bow to Elder Fa.
Elder Fa grunted and casually walked to a seat next to the Hall Master and sat down.
Xue Mo Sha smiled slightly, very satisfied, and then began to chatter endlessly about the Star Breaking Formation.
Eight out of ten sentences were flattering Elder Fa.
Qi Yu couldn't understand, Qi Yu was very confused.
Honestly, was Xue Mo Sha this subservient to the master above his head?
But looking at Elder Fa again.
She showed no reaction to Xue Mo Sha's flattery, merely flipping through a book calmly, occasionally grunting to indicate she was listening.
Xue Mo Sha's smile was awkward. He seemed to be suppressing his anger, not daring to erupt. "Alright, alright. Since Elder Fa is tired, all of you can withdraw. Come with me to the Thirteenth Heaven. I have some arrangements to make."
Elder Fa grunted today, then pointed at Qi Yu and Chen Xi. "You take that woman away. Leave these two with me. I have something to say to them and some tasks to assign them."
Xue Mo Sha readily agreed.
He grabbed Yu Zhen and left.
Qi Yu opened her mouth but remained silent, standing before this Elder Fa, unsure of what to say.
Chen Xi looked at Elder Fa and wanted to say something, but considering his current disguised identity as Qi Yu's subordinate, he didn't seem to have the right to speak, so he silently closed his mouth.
The three of them stared at each other, looking at each other for a long time.
After a while, Elder Fa narrowed her eyes and looked at Qi Yu, saying, "Qi Yu, change back. You don't need to hide. I've already seen through you. Your current appearance makes me uncomfortable, and you've been holding back what you want to say for a long time."
Qi Yu fell silent and finally changed back.
Chen Xi also changed back.
"This is much more pleasing to the eye," Elder Fa nodded with satisfaction, then raised an eyebrow at Qi Yu. "Don't you think you should thank me?"
Qi Yu fell into thought. "Thank me for what? Thank you for deliberately setting up the Star Breaking Formation in my Assassination Pavilion?"
"Or should I thank you for seeing through my true identity from the beginning but not exposing me in front of Xue Mo Sha!?"
The more Qi Yu thought about it, the more agitated she became.
Elder Fa looked at Qi Yu, and seeing her words, her eyes widened in shock. Then she pointed at herself:
"Outrageous! I've done so much for you, sacrificed so much, and this is your reaction? Have you really not recognized me?"
Elder Fa's tone was extremely shocked.
Chen Xi, listening from the side, couldn't help but nudge Qi Yu and ask her, "Could this be a friend from your past life?"
Qi Yu looked grief-stricken. "I swear I really don't remember. This woman is definitely not my friend. If I had such a beautiful friend, how could I not admit it?"
"You really don't remember me," Elder Fa shook her head and sighed. "To think I gave you so much compensation, allowing you to reincarnate as a dragon and have all this..."
Qi Yu narrowed her eyes.
Only then did she vaguely notice something.
Elder Fa.
Fa Ze?
She asked doubtfully, "Fa, Fa Ze?"
My goodness, this world was going crazy. Fa Ze had become a person and descended to the mortal realm.
"Hmph," Elder Fa glanced at Qi Yu. "It's good that you can still remember. It wasn't a waste of my efforts for you."
Qi Yu's expression twisted slightly. "Alright, I should thank you for the reincarnation. But what are you doing now? You are Fa Ze, no wonder you know my identity as the Pavilion Master of the Assassination Pavilion. But you've allied with Xue Mo Sha? Big brother, no, big sister, you are Fa Ze! Why are you allying with them?!"
"You know nothing," Elder Fa suddenly stood up. "Xue Mo Sha has completely devoured the body of the Heavenly Dao. A new Heavenly Dao must be chosen. To prevent interference from Xue Mo Sha and them, I'm pretending to ally with them."
"You want to choose a new Heavenly Dao, you want to pretend to ally with them, none of that is my business," Qi Yu said, hands on her hips. "You exposed my identity as the Pavilion Master of the Assassination Pavilion, and then deliberately helped them frame me. What's going on? You haven't forgotten about the Star Breaking Formation, have you? If I hadn't reacted quickly this time, the Star Breaking Formation would have been cast, and I would have been in trouble."
"...Isn't pretending to ally with them troublesome? I just sold this matter to them as a small favor," Fa Ze said, then quickly added, "Of course, I am Fa Ze, and I can help clean up the mess I created for you. So the Star Breaking Formation will definitely not cause you any problems. At most, you'll just lose your cover."
Qi Yu narrowed her eyes, then snorted after a while and waved her hand. "Forget it, forget it. Have you chosen a new Heavenly Dao yet?"
"No, the selection of the new Heavenly Dao must be conducted in secret," Fa Ze frowned. "As long as I find someone with the aura of the Heavenly Dao and form a contract with her, once the new Heavenly Dao contract is completed, Xue Mo Sha will no longer be able to control the current Heavenly Dao. This means Xue Mo Sha will not be able to stay in the Thirteenth Heaven and will fall heavily."
Qi Yu suddenly understood.
Chen Xi was curious. "So, Lord Fa Ze, have you found a suitable candidate for the Heavenly Dao? Where is this new Heavenly Dao with the aura of the Heavenly Dao?"
Fa Ze's expression was solemn. "I..."
Qi Yu and Chen Xi leaned forward with solemn expressions.
Fa Ze pursed her lips, resting one hand on her chin and the other on her leg. Under their gaze, she uttered two words: "Haven't found it."
Qi Yu (≖_≖): "...If you haven't found it, why are you acting mysterious and posing?"
