Chapter 2240: Chapter 741: Little Sister, Have You Fallen for Him? (Part 3)
Shen Baishuang believes her younger sister, Shen Yiren, is too naive and doesn’t understand how unpredictable people’s hearts can be, making her easy to deceive and bully.
If it weren’t for their eldest sister, Shen Jianjia, mediating between them, the relationship between the two sisters would likely have been a mess long ago.
“Mm, something came up earlier, so I returned.”
Shen Baishuang’s figure, wrapped in a red dress, was exceptionally slender and graceful, like the most exquisite sculpture of a goddess, displaying her charming elegance.
Her long, waterfall-like black hair flowed down her shoulders like the most delicate silk, shimmering with a gentle, crystalline sheen, cascading down to her high, curvaceous hips.
The red dress, almost slit up to her thighs, swayed with the breeze, occasionally revealing glimpses of her snowy, creamy skin, as if unintentionally teasing those around her, leaving them dizzy and nearly spellbound at her feet.
“Little sister, did you go to Rongyue Island to meet that Xuanmu Taoist?”
Shen Baishuang looked directly at Shen Yiren, as if scrutinizing her, and asked aloud.
“Mm.”
Shen Yiren was a bit surprised why her second sister was asking about this but still nodded in response.
“Just in time, tell me about this Xuanmu Taoist.”
Through clear information from her personal housekeeper, Shen Baishuang had a general understanding of Xuanmu Taoist.
She learned that this person was quite close to her little sister, and her sister seemed to have a good impression of Xuanmu Taoist, so she came directly to inquire.
“Second sister, why are you asking about this?”
Knowing her second sister’s personality, Shen Yiren immediately asked, thinking she might suspect Xuanmu Taoist of something.
She knew that her second sister was a violent woman who never cared about evidence when doing things.
“Just asking, why do you have that expression?”
Seeing her sister’s wary expression, Shen Baishuang couldn’t help but frown slightly, feeling a bit displeased.
How long have they known each other, and her sister is already leaning toward him?
“Xuanmu is an Honorary Elder of our Goddess Palace, the basic information is recorded in the Illusion Moon Pavilion, if you want to know, you can just check it yourself.”
Shen Yiren, with her elegant and delicate appearance, spoke softly.
“Since I came to you, I naturally have already checked.”
Shen Baishuang rolled her eyes, speaking with a little irritation.
Then, with patience, she expressed that she had heard some things about this person and found it questionable, so she came to ask.
Although Shen Yiren didn’t see any major issues with Lu Changsheng, she knew her second sister was responsible for many matters in the Goddess Palace, hence her concern and inquiry.
After asking several questions, Shen Baishuang suddenly furrowed her brow and said, “Little sister, have you fallen for this person?”
“Second sister, what are you talking about!”
Upon hearing this, Shen Yiren immediately frowned, raising her soft voice a few pitches.
She indeed had a good impression of Xuanmu Taoist, greatly admiring his talent and character, but it was far from being love.
“I just noticed you seem to be defending him in your words, so I was casually asking.”
Shen Baishuang chuckled lightly, not minding her sister’s attitude, but in her heart, she felt this Xuanmu Taoist had issues.
Her sister, although a bit naive, had vision far beyond ordinary people, and most male cultivators couldn’t catch her eye.
Now, although she might not be in love with this Xuanmu Taoist, she definitely viewed him differently, with considerable favor.
In just a few short years, to deceive her sister to such an extent, there was absolutely a problem.
“Second sister, don’t joke about this!”
Shen Yiren showed a slightly firm attitude.
“Alright, alright, I won’t joke.”
Shen Baishuang saw that her sister seemed a bit angry, her mature and beautiful face becoming a bit more restrained, and said, “I’m asking these because I want to request his assistance for a task.”
Previously, her sister Shen Jianjia indicated she should test and pay attention to Xuanmu Taoist, so after healing her injuries, she thought for a bit and had the idea to invite him to go to Black Reef Island with her.
That way, she would also have the opportunity to observe and probe him along the way.
Otherwise, since he was often in closed-door cultivation on Rongyue Island, she wouldn’t have the chance to interact.
“A task?”
Shen Yiren was a bit surprised.
“It’s about the Kunpeng Egg…”
Shen Baishuang didn’t hide anything from her sister, revealing the matter of the Kunpeng Egg and encountering the Six Paths Demon Consort.
“This person, being a Late Stage Core Formation Great Cultivator, not only possesses a Fourth Rank Puppet but is also skilled in divination and medicine. If he goes with us, he can surely be of great use and help our Goddess Palace acquire the Kunpeng Egg!”
Shen Baishuang intended to invite Xuanmu Taoist not just to probe the situation.
His displayed abilities and methods indeed offered significant help!
“Xuanmu is just our Goddess Palace’s Honorary Elder, so sister, you should inquire about this yourself.”
Shen Yiren knew that seeking and competing for the Kunpeng Egg was very dangerous.
Although she wanted to tactfully refuse on behalf of Lu Changsheng, if he could seize this opportunity to merit himself, she could justifiably help him strive for rare resources like the Nine Curves Spirit Pill, Nascent Soul Secret Technique, and Nascent Soul Insights.
“Alright.”
Shen Baishuang nodded, her actions decisive and swift, immediately standing up, ready to head to Rongyue Island.
