Time moves on.
In the grand conference room of the Janitor Department at the Wang City branch of the Martial Alliance.
A group of Daoists, clad in Taoist robes, sat upright, calm and composed.
On the side, members of the Janitor Department curiously sized up the various Daoist masters from Dragon Tiger Mountain.
They whispered among themselves.
"Look at them, so serene and professional, no wonder they specialize in capturing evil spirits!"
"Yes, I heard that our Janitor Department was established because the alliance had initially communicated with the first Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, who generously shared the mantra of capturing spirits without any charge."
"And with the changes over time, we now have our Janitor Department."
"Looking at it this way, our Janitor Department and Dragon Tiger Mountain could be considered to have the same roots, right?"
"Right, I heard so many Daoists came because there's a major evil spirit hidden in Wang City!"
"A major evil spirit? It couldn't be related to the previous evil aura, could it?"
"Very likely!"
"Considering the dreams, could this evil spirit be Miss Su Muwan?"
"Very likely!!"
"I'm just saying, how could a spoiled young lady be worth such a massive mobilization by the Daoist friends from Dragon Tiger Mountain."
Even for their Janitor Department, it was rare to see such a large group of Daoists.
So, everyone looked around as if they were seeing something rare.
Suan Tianxing was also among them, his brows furrowed, his gaze unsettled.
The backlash in his celestial eye had actually been removed.
But he could no longer activate his celestial eye.
His master, the previous Celestial Master Zhang Tianquan, told him it was because he had developed a demon in his heart.
To reactivate his celestial eye, he must... eliminate this inner demon!
And the inner demon... was none other than Su Muwan!
Suan Tianxing took a deep breath, his fists clenched.
Su Muwan...
You evil spirit! I must vanquish you!
Nearby.
A young Daoist pinched his fingers and looked around.
After sensing a faint trace of evil spirit, he turned to Suan Tianxing, puzzled, and said, "Brother, there's hardly any evil aura here."
"Are the masters being too cautious?"
"In my opinion, this so-called major evil spirit might not be much of a threat."
Hearing this, Suan Tianxing frowned and sternly replied, "Zhang Xiong, don't be careless. Su Muwan is not like ordinary evil spirits."
"She's good at disguising herself! She will reveal her sharp fangs the moment you let your guard down!"
"Didn't you read about her recent rumors before coming here?"
Swallowing nervously, Zhang Xiong said, "Brother, you have a point."
"But we have over a hundred brothers here! Are we still afraid of one little evil spirit?"
This sentiment was echoed by the surrounding Daoists from Dragon Tiger Mountain.
They earnestly said, "Yes, Celestial Master, don't worry, Master Zhang is here too!"
"What could possibly go wrong?"
Suan Tianxing also understood the principle that there is strength in numbers.
Seeing Zhang Xiong and others so confident, he felt perhaps he was being overly cautious and timid.
Sigh.
Suan Tianxing shook his head, questioning himself internally.
Suan Tianxing, oh Suan Tianxing, what has become of you?
Where has the spirited you gone?
"It's just a demon, just get rid of it like before, right?
What's there to be afraid of?
With so many of us here, can't we overpower one demon?
Besides, my master, the previous celestial master Zhang Tianquan, is also stationed in Wang City.
There should be no problem!
Even Su Muwan, that demon who has taken human form, definitely won't be a match for us!
Half an hour later.
On the stage.
After improvising for a considerable amount of time.
The head of the sanitation department of the Martial Alliance's Wang City branch made a brief summary.
"Although the demonic aura has been cleared, the scenery of Wang City remains stunning."
"All the Taoist priests are welcome to stay a few more days in Wang City to enjoy its beauty."
"Thank you, everyone."
Clap Clap Clap!!
Applause erupted.
Everyone left the scene.
In the corridor.
Wu Fan, the head of the sanitation department in Wang City, a middle-aged man, pulled Kong Yu aside and whispered as they walked, "Kong Yu, what's going on? Didn't you tell them that the demonic aura was cleared?"
Usually, Kong Yu handles matters related to Dragon Tiger Mountain.
Kong Yu thought for a moment and nodded, "I did tell them, but they still came."
"They still came..."
Wu Fan was surprised.
"Why did so many of them come?"
"Chief, you're asking me? How would I know?"
"Cough, why don't you ask them? You know them, right?"
"....."
"By the way, there's a rumor that a great demon is hidden in Wang City, which is why they came. Is it true?"
".....I don't know."
Kong Yu sighed lightly.
She had asked, of course.
But everyone was tight-lipped, as if their real purpose for coming here was a terrifying taboo.
She watched the group of Taoist priests leaving the alliance.
Confused in her heart.
Why did so many Taoist priests come?
According to Kong Yu's thinking, even when the demonic aura was rampant, there would only be about a dozen people at most.
But... this scale.
Is it really as the rumors say, that there is some great demon in Wang City?
......
......
Wang City.
Shopping center.
Qin Luo and Su Muwan leisurely strolled into the place.
Su Muwan pushed up her sunglasses and murmured, "Hmm? Isn't this the shopping center that someone gifted shares to me?"
"Yes, Miss, you are a major shareholder here."
"So, can I shop for free?"
"It would probably be charged to that unfortunate family."
"Forget it, I'm not short of money, no need to keep tabs! Qin Luo! Let's go shopping! Get whatever you want!"
"Alright, Miss."
Behind them.
Here they come!!
Su Bailian's eyes sparkled with excitement.
The perfect place for a couple's date has arrived!
Let me see how you two are getting along!!
Clothing store.
"Who are you to compete with me for the same dress!"
"Qin Luo! Slap her for me!"
Slap!
Su Bailian: ?
Jewelry store.
"You little wretch! How dare you roll your eyes at me in my own store?!"
"Qin Luo! Slap him for me!"
Slap!
Su Bailian: ?
Luxury store.
"Qin Luo!"
Slap!!
Su Bailian: ??
After a round of shopping.
Su Bailian, laden with bags, panted as she followed behind Qin Luo and Su Muwan.
Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at the backs of the master and servant.
Really?
Is this your daily routine?
What on earth!
Su Bailian was astonished.
Su Muwan, why does it always seem like someone is provoking you wherever we go?
And the main thing!!
Su Bailian turned to Qin Luo.
Do you really pick fights with everyone you meet outside?
Su Bailian was defeated; she completely gave in.
This is truly a bizarre combination!
But!
Hehe!
Su Bailian's eyes lit up, now even more intrigued!
Sister Su and Qin Luo...
A forbidden love between master and servant!!
Yikes—!
I must find out if you two are actually together!
Ahead.
Qin Luo walked beside Su Muwan, inhaling the faint fragrance emanating from her hair.
He felt blissful.
In one word.
Delightful.
Suddenly.
He raised an eyebrow, seemingly noticing something.
After a moment of silence.
He poked Su Muwan, who was admiring the jewelry she had just bought, and said, "Miss, I see a Taoist priest."
Su Muwan responded without looking up, "Hmm? What about it, you want your fortune told?"
"......"
Three seconds later.
Whoosh!!
Su Muwan suddenly looked up, her eyes wide, her mouth emitting a sharp shriek: "A Taoist priest??"
Wait a minute?
Could it be... from Dragon Tiger Mountain?!
Hold on!!
Su Muwan took a deep breath, her expression stiffening. Given her constitution.
When an enemy appears, it means...
The next second.
"Evil spirit!! It's an evil spirit!!"
"Strong!! Such strong malice!! Such astonishing evil aura!!"
"Senior brother!! Senior sister!!"
"I've found that great evil spirit!!"
A shout came.
"!!"
Su Muwan looked forward sharply.
There.
A young man, one hand holding skewered food, the other a candied haw, yelled in panic.
Behind him.
Stood a dozen Taoist priests, also holding snacks and bubble tea.
It looked like they were just out shopping.
Su Muwan's eye twitched, her expression gradually numbing.
Su Muwan: ==
Seriously, can my crappy constitution be toned down just a bit??

u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
