Chapter 067 Cooperation
Lin Fei initially thought that the Zhao family patriarch was only trying to find fault with Fatty Zhao and Madam Zhao to prevent them from betraying him. He never imagined that the old man was actually the mastermind behind it all.
Moreover, judging from his previous experiences, Lin Fei would never have imagined that nothing had happened between Zhao Tiande and this woman, and that he hadn't gained any advantage at all.
If Lin Fei hadn't run fast enough, he would have been swallowed whole by this woman. Little did he know, this woman had only been using seductive arts to seduce Zhao Tiande.
"Master, what's wrong with you? Have you gone mad?" the woman asked anxiously. "Why don't I go to the branch altar right away and have the altar master come and take a look? Or perhaps I should ask the altar master to invite the headmaster to come and examine you?"
"No, absolutely not!" Lin Fei hurriedly said. If he really went to invite the branch leader, or even a master from the White Lotus Sect's headquarters, wouldn't he immediately expose his secret?
Seeing Lin Fei's extremely nervous appearance, the woman chuckled and covered her mouth, laughing, "Little brother, you wanted to scare your older sister, but it didn't work? You little Taoist priest, your little disguise skills are no match for your older sister!"
Lin Fei was so shocked that he jumped up. His identity had been seen through. Did that mean that the other party was a master who had already mastered the Eye Point?
Seeing Lin Fei's alarmed expression, the woman's eyes filled with deep sorrow: "Little Taoist, why are you so nervous? If I really wanted to harm you, I would have done it already. We've only been apart for a few days, and you really don't recognize me? Or perhaps you simply don't remember me at all?"
Lin Fei was slightly taken aback, then suddenly realized: "So it's Sister Ji Lianxing. I should have noticed it earlier. Your hands are so beautiful that there is no other pair like them in the world. How could I have been so nervous that I didn't notice?"
"You little Taoist priest, you've got a sweet tongue, but don't try to flatter your sister. This isn't my real form at all. What can you possibly tell?" Ji Lianxing rolled her eyes at Lin Fei, annoyed. "Besides, I've already told you, I mean you no harm. You don't need to back away from the door while you're talking. If I wanted to deal with you, you little Taoist priest, do you think you could escape?"
Lin Fei, having his thoughts exposed by Ji Lianxing, showed no embarrassment. Instead, he sat down casually and said, "With your cultivation level, sister, you wouldn't even have a chance to run away from a mere Taoist like me. Not to mention me, even those righteous people in Lujiang Town that day, I'm afraid none of them would be your match."
Lin Fei wasn't just blindly flattering her. Since Ji Lianxing dared to stay alone that day, she must have had a way to escape unscathed. At least, Yuan the charlatan had already said that even if he exposed Ji Lianxing's identity on the spot, he still wouldn't be able to keep her.
"You glib-tongued brat, you really don't seem like a righteous person. Your sister is a vixen from the eight evil paths, shouldn't she be hated by everyone in the righteous path? You dare to sit down and chat with your sister, aren't you afraid that others will say you're colluding with evil spirits?" Ji Lianxing covered her mouth and laughed, "You little rascal, you're really completely different from those other righteous people!"
"Those who follow the righteous path are not necessarily incapable of evil. Those who follow the wicked path are not necessarily villains. I've always believed that judging a person's righteousness or wickedness shouldn't be based on their background, but on what they've actually done, right? At least since I met you, sister, you've never done anything truly heinous. Even with that restaurant owner from that day, my senior brother eventually found him in the cellar, and you didn't kill him." Lin Fei spoke eloquently, but in his heart he added, "Even if I wanted to eliminate evil and uphold justice, I couldn't defeat you, could I?"
"Hehe, stop flattering your sister, kid. Although I don't like killing, I'm not a good person either. You're a handsome young man with such a sweet tongue. If you were born into the Hehuan Sect, who knows how many girls you would have ruined!" Ji Lianxing suddenly said seriously, "But just for what you just said, I'll save you this time in the future."
"Then thank you very much for taking care of me, Sister Ji!" Lin Fei stood up and exaggeratedly sang a fat vow: "If there's nothing else, Sister Ji, I'll take my leave now."
"Stop right there!" Ji Lianxing rolled her eyes at Lin Fei. "You slippery brat, do you really think that I exposed your identity just to chat with you here? You came here to deal with the White Lotus Sect, didn't you?"
"This..." Lin Fei hesitated for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "As expected, we couldn't hide it from Sister Ji's discerning eyes. We did come here for the White Lotus Sect branch altar. However, we didn't expect that Sister Ji, a Holy Maiden of the Flying Flower Palace, would be here at the White Lotus Sect branch altar. It seems that this time, I will have to return empty-handed."
"Who said you were going to return empty-handed?" Ji Lianxing's eyes sparkled as she looked at Lin Fei and said, "Isn't the reason I asked you to stay here to give you a great achievement? If you not only destroyed the White Lotus Sect's branch altar this time, but also seriously injured or even killed the White Lotus Sect's Holy Maiden, wouldn't that be a great achievement?"
Lin Fei was truly stunned this time. Feihua Palace and Bailian Sect were both among the Eight Evil Paths. Even if there were any grudges between them, when the righteous people were uniting to deal with the Eight Evil Paths, Ji Lianxing should not have taken advantage of their misfortune, even if she didn't help.
The Eight Evil Paths are just evil sects; they're not stupid. Otherwise, they wouldn't have barged into the Lujiang Town restaurant that day. Their purpose was to warn the righteous people that they, the Eight Evil Paths, are not to be trifled with.
"Sister Ji, please don't joke with me. You and the White Lotus Sect are both among the Eight Evil Paths, so why would you help us deal with the White Lotus Sect?" Lin Fei said with a rather awkward smile. "Since Sister Ji is here in Zhao Family Village, it seems that I have no chance to deal with the White Lotus Sect. I'll take my leave now!"
"Who's joking with you?" Ji Lianxing rolled her eyes at Lin Fei: "You don't want the credit that's offered to you? If you want to leave, then leave! I just wonder where the Jade Emperor Sect's reputation will be among the righteous sects of the world if you return empty-handed this time?"
Seeing that Ji Lianxing didn't seem to be joking, Lin Fei became serious as well: "Is what you said true, sister? But since you and the White Lotus Sect are both among the eight evil sects, why would you help us fight against the White Lotus Sect?"
“Of course it’s true. I left this avatar here to find an opportunity to deal with that bitch from the White Lotus Sect.” Ji Lianxing nodded and said, “But now that you so-called righteous people have gotten involved, it has saved me a lot of trouble.”
