Bai Feng couldn't help but sigh inwardly, realizing that there were indeed ways to influence one's inner demons in this world, but without exception, they were all incredibly complicated and difficult. There had never been anything as simple as the Zhuang Shen Fa (Refining the Divine Method).

It was no wonder it was considered an immortal technique.

Although the Illusion Technique was a supplementary skill created by later generations based on the Zhuang Shen Fa, it further expanded the marvelous applications of the Zhuang Shen Fa. One could only imagine that Master Qian Huan was also an extraordinary immortal.

...

"This match goes to Bai Feng from Qingzhu Peak."

As soon as the result was announced, the disciples watching from below erupted in excitement:

"Oh my gosh!"

"I knew from the very beginning that Brother Bai would win!"

"By the way, why is no one opposing him this time?"

"It seems someone maliciously spread rumors about Brother Bai, and it just so happened that Brother Luo saw it, so those who spread the rumors got caught."

"Good riddance! Those rumor-mongers should have been caught long ago!"

"Ahem, Brother, weren't you also spreading rumors a few days ago?"

"What are you talking about? I'm just a bystander, enjoying the show... Can enjoying the show be called spreading rumors?"

"Junior Brother, our investigation found that you had dealings with those who spread the rumors regarding spirit stones. Please come with us."

Now, Bai Feng's reputation in the Tianjian Sect had completely turned around. If anyone wanted to spread rumors about him in the future, they would likely think twice.

However, none of this mattered to Bai Feng. He was far more concerned about what to have for dinner than his reputation.

"Hehe, congratulations on your victory, Junior Brother!" At that moment, the petite Yu Yao popped up from somewhere, standing in front of Bai Feng and Bai Yu Mo with her hands on her hips. "Shall we celebrate?"

"Forget it, I don't like crowds."

Bai Feng waved his hand. Although his image in the Tianjian Sect had improved, that didn't mean he had fewer troubles. Just the thought of chatting and boasting with his senior brothers and sisters gave him a headache.

Moreover, the Child of Fortune who was targeting him was only heavily injured; his mouth still worked, and he could still incite his little brothers against Bai Feng. So it was better not to get too carried away.

"Don't worry, I don't want to throw a big party either." Yu Yao shook her head, then pointed at Bai Feng, Bai Yu Mo, and herself. "Just the three of us. I've been craving your roasted meat for days, and I also need to ask what kind of clothes you want."

After saying that, Yu Yao winked at Bai Feng.

At once, Bai Feng understood her intention.

Ah, so she was here to ask for the little royal uncle's favor. He thought she genuinely came to congratulate him!

But Bai Feng still nodded, "Alright, let's find a place to have a nice dinner tonight."

"Great! I'll contact the Spirit Beast Peak and have them reserve some good meat for me!"

With that, Yu Yao took off with her little legs, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"Well, let's head back too."

Bai Feng shook his head. The match was over, and he had nothing else to do, so he might as well go home and continue reading.

Bai Yu Mo hurried to catch up, but she kept her head down and didn't say a word, as if lost in thought.

She always felt that Yu Yao and Bai Feng were hiding something from her.

...

"Master Brother?"

Lin Yan sat in front of the hospital bed, surprised.

"Yes, I found it hard to believe while investigating," Luo Chen nodded from the bed. "This time, I can only let him suffer a loss, but it's going to be very difficult to completely take him down."

"No matter how hard it is, we can't give up. Even if it's not for Brother Bai, with Master Brother's two-faced and malicious behavior towards other disciples, he shouldn't be allowed to stay in that position."

"Right, that's why I pressed him down with my sword during the match. I estimate he should be stepping down in a few days."

"Master Brother Luo is indeed thoughtful." Lin Yan nodded, deep in thought. He hadn't considered this angle before; he thought Luo Chen was just uncomfortable with the other party's use of hidden weapons. "So, when Ye Tang steps down, the sect should appoint you as Master Brother, right?"

"No, I'm not interested in the position of Master Brother in the Tianjian Sect, but I have a better candidate in mind." Luo Chen shook his head, already having made up his mind.

Lin Yan immediately understood Luo Chen's meaning: "Sister Bai? That could work."

"Alright, let's not discuss uncertain matters." Luo Chen waved his hand, then asked seriously, "How many subordinates does Ye Tang have left?"

Speaking of this, Lin Yan chuckled lightly: "Not many left. Most of them have gone to the Law Enforcement Hall. You can trust me to handle this."

Their acquaintance was both a coincidence and a necessity.

At that time, he was investigating the rumor-mongers when he ran into Luo Chen, who was also investigating the rumors. After a conversation, they hit it off and decided to collaborate.

Although Luo Chen was the Master Brother of Zixiao Peak, he hadn't lived like one in recent years and had no friends, merely holding the title and reputation.

In contrast, Lin Yan was just an ordinary inner sect disciple, but he had climbed up from the bottom, making friends everywhere. However, due to his current status, his actions were often restricted.

Thus, after their collaboration, Lin Yan took charge of the main investigation while Luo Chen handled the negotiations.

As a result, they managed to capture most of Ye Tang's subordinates and bring them into the Law Enforcement Hall.

Suddenly, Luo Chen thought of something and quickly said to Lin Yan, "By the way, don't mention this to Junior Brother Bai yet. Let's wait until we completely take down Ye Tang before sharing this good news with him. Otherwise, if we disturb Junior Brother Bai's cultivation, I would be the sinner."

"I understand, you can rest assured, Brother Luo." Lin Yan nodded, then remembered something and quickly took out a few books with the words "Spring and Autumn" written on the cover from his storage bag. "By the way, Brother Luo, I brought the books you wanted."

Seeing this, Luo Chen's expression turned excited: "Great, great! I thank you here, Brother Lin. If you ever need anything in the future, remember to come to me."

Chapter 49: You call me Sister, I call you Adoptive Father; let's each mind our own business from now on!

"Strange, I feel like someone is out to get me?"

Bai Feng rubbed his chin in thought, but when he checked the system, there were no notifications. Moreover, that guy Luo Chen was also heavily injured and hospitalized, so he couldn't act for the time being.

Who else could harm him?

No, it might not necessarily be the Child of Fortune. If he thought about it, he had quite a few enemies. Not to mention the other heavily injured Child of Fortune and Su Lan Qian, who had given birth to inner demons, there was also a demoness outside the Tianjian Sect eyeing him.

It was indeed time to establish an intelligence network; otherwise, even if something happened, he wouldn't know.

Knock, knock, knock!

At that moment, a series of urgent knocks sounded at the door.

Based on the location of the knocks, it was highly likely that it was Yu Yao.

"Sister, you came quite fast... huh?"

Bai Feng opened the door to find Yu Yao dragging a silver-haired girl, her face brimming with excitement.

"Junior Brother, look what I found on the way! She wants to come home with me!"

Bai Feng instinctively looked at the silver-haired girl and saw Xiao Qi gazing at him with tear-filled eyes: "Brother..."

He immediately pulled Xiao Qi into his arms, shielding her with his hand, and stared warily at Yu Yao: "Sister, just to clarify, human trafficking is illegal!"

"I'm just joking!" Yu Yao laughed cheerfully, clearly already aware of their relationship. "But she really is adorable! Can I take her home for a bit? I want to change her clothes; with her beautiful white hair, she'll look so cute!"

"Then you need to ask Xiao Qi if she wants to." Bai Feng didn't relax his guard, treating Yu Yao like a suspicious stranger.

"Don't worry, if she doesn't want to, it's fine. I can make the clothes, and you can help her change into them!" Yu Yao waved her hand, her face full of anticipation. "As long as I can take a look, I'll be satisfied."

Bai Feng: "..."

This person really doesn't fit in with Qingzhu Peak at all!

How on earth did their master take such a person as a disciple?

At that moment, Xiao Qi, hiding in Bai Feng's embrace, reached out to grab a strand of her white hair, examining it. Her hair was well-maintained and carried a faint floral scent.

'Is it pretty?'

She stared closely at her hair, but deep down, she still couldn't bring herself to like it. The pain from her childhood had indeed been filled in by Bai Feng, but it still hadn't completely healed. She was still very sensitive about her white hair.

"Speaking of which, I also have some ideas about Xiao Qi's clothes." Bai Feng walked into the room and poured two cups of tea for Yu Yao and Xiao Qi. "Let's discuss it later."

Yu Yao didn't seem pleased; instead, she asked suspiciously, "You? Can you do it? Designing clothes is quite difficult."

Bai Feng wasn't annoyed; he calmly took a sip of tea: "To be honest, Master Chunqiu is actually from our Bai family. I just happened to have discussed with Master Chunqiu, and he mentioned he wanted to create a design themed around white."
