Chapter 310: The Sect Leader Wakes Up Grumpy Every Day (58)

Shen Mubai, “…..”

After saying this, Elder Lin snorted, clasped his hands behind his back, and walked past her with an air of dignity.

That afternoon, Shen Mubai was summoned by Yun Niang once again.

Yun Niang poured tea for both of them and then looked at her, saying, “I know you don’t want to marry our master.”

Shen Mubai paused for a moment, then honestly nodded.

“Yes, Third Hall Master, please help me persuade the master.”

Yun Niang’s red lips curled into a smile.

“The master’s decisions are not something we can interfere with.”

Shen Mubai, “…..”

Yun Niang sighed, “Don’t blame the master. He is naturally decisive, especially in matters of the heart. Emotions can develop over time. When the madam fell seriously ill, she entrusted the master to our care before she passed away. The disciples of the Fire Lotus Sect respect and fear him. Combined with the dark nature of his poison arts, he gradually became like this. After he went mad, his appearance at midnight resembled his childhood self. We thought it wasn’t too bad, but we feared prolonged illness would leave sequelae. Then you appeared.”

Shen Mubai sipped her tea, her feelings complex.

Yun Niang, stroking her teacup, looked at her with eyes full of hope and expectation and said, “Cuihua, you are an orphan. Initially, we did plan to kill you, but after spending time with you, Wu Er and I began to see you as part of the Fire Lotus Sect. The master genuinely likes you. Haven’t you felt even a little moved?”

Shen Mubai thought about Jun Jiuling and found herself unable to decisively deny it.

But she was just a passerby, destined to leave this world sooner or later.

She opened her mouth, struggling to say this tactfully, but found she couldn’t make a sound.

The system’s voice echoed in her mind: “Warning! The host must not mention anything related to the mission!”

Shen Mubai tried to find a loophole.

“What if I write it down?”

The system, with a haughty and indifferent tone, replied, “Haha, try it. If you succeed, I’ll admit defeat.”

Hearing this from the system, Shen Mubai’s resolve wavered.

She could only say to Yun Niang, “Alright, I hope you won’t regret this.”

Yun Niang was overjoyed, couldn’t possibly regret it, and immediately started preparing for the wedding.

Shen Mubai realized there was no escaping it, so she might as well go along with it. Once the mission was complete, they would naturally understand.

The ten days passed quickly.

Shen Mubai, dressed in a phoenix coronet and a ceremonial robe, was escorted by Yun Niang into the main hall. The elders and hall masters wore joyous expressions, as if it were their own children getting married.

A red veil covered her face, and her slender waist gave her a delicate appearance. After a while, Yun Niang placed her hand in another’s.

The hand, slightly calloused but warm, held hers.

Jun Jiuling looked at the person before him, his heart’s desire fulfilled, unable to hide the joy in his eyes. His exceptionally handsome face softened with a rare tenderness.

“Bai Bai.”

The deep, magnetic voice by her ear made Shen Mubai’s heart stir, but she didn’t respond.

Jun Jiuling held the girl’s hand, his eyebrows full of joy and his narrow eyes filled with gentle affection, stunning the watching elders and hall masters.

“It seems the master truly likes this girl.”

“Ah, forget it, I’m old. It doesn’t matter what the master likes, as long as the couple loves each other deeply and doesn’t follow Madam’s tragic path.”
