Chapter 3968: Tell the truth

Back then, she had only said a few words about Shangguan LAN ‘er, and she was immediately trampled to the ground and banished to become a mere newbie of the GreenCloud Pavilion. If the incident at the Half Moon Lake in the back mountain were to be exposed, Xu lingchong would definitely send his men to tear her apart!
“What’s wrong? Miss mu Rong has something that you can’t tell me?” Kang Zhaoming was a smart person. He knew that there was something going on from Murong Zhen’s expression. Other people might not know who miss Shangguan was, but Murong Zhen was from the rising Sky Pavilion. There was no way he wouldn’t know.
Hearing this, Murong Zhen was shocked again. He quickly forced a smile and tried to smooth things over,””Deacon Kang, you’ve misunderstood. This little girl was just thinking back and wondering if I’ve ever seen such a thing before.”
“Oh? Then I don’t know what miss mu Rong has remembered?” Zhaoming said as he continued to look at the woman’s body.
“To tell you the truth, I just remembered something. When we were taking the spirit beast test in the back mountain, we found miss Shangguan there all by herself. She was attacked by a spirit beast, and Lin Yi saved her.” Murong Zhen said, half-truthfully.
Putting it this way was the most beneficial for her. Not only could she get herself out of this, but she could also use this opportunity to add fuel to the fire between Lin Yi and Xu lingchong. After all, it wouldn’t be a bad thing for her no matter which one of the two was at a disadvantage.
Other than that, she was also trying to curry favor with Kang Zhaoming by telling him about this. After all, Meng jueguang was dead, and Lin Yi was getting stronger by the day. She couldn’t fight him alone. She had to find help as soon as possible, and this Kang Zhaoming was the perfect candidate.
Firstly, while Zhaoming himself wasn’t that strong, he had Xu lingchong as his backing, and he was also a pill master. His role wasn’t to charge through the enemy lines, so he didn’t need to place too much importance on strength.
Plus, there was a blood feud between him and Lin Yi back in the common world. The enemy of an enemy was a natural ally.
In Murong Zhen’s eyes, Zhaoming’s use as an ally was no less than Meng jueguang ‘s. Not only could he use him to deal with Lin Yi, but if the opportunity arose, he could even use him to climb back up to Xu lingchong’s high branch. That would be the day she, Murong Zhen, would shine!
“Lin Yi saved miss Shangguan? Heh, this guy is actually so lucky?” Zhaoming was surprised, and couldn’t help but be envious.
Being able to save miss Shangguan’s life was a blessing that couldn’t be accumulated in a few lifetimes. If such a big favor was used properly, it would be easy for him to rise up in the future. Why couldn’t he have such a good opportunity?
“That’s right, I heard that miss Shangguan really hates Lin Yi, and that he’ll be able to turn over a new leaf with this kind of opportunity. ” Murong Zhen added fuel to the fire.
“Him? Flying up to the branches and becoming a Phoenix? You wish!” Zhaoming gritted his teeth in anger, but he wasn’t going to let the cat get away with it so easily.”Since miss Murong was there, why didn’t you help? it’s better to do miss Shangguan a favor than let Lin Yi Do it all by himself, right?”
Murong Zhen’s voice faltered, then he pretended to be weak and said,””I’m not Lin Yi’s match. If I showed myself back then, I’m afraid he would’ve killed me. ”
“I see.” Kang Zhaoming looked at her suspiciously but didn’t ask any more questions. This answer was enough to give Xu lingchong an explanation. The rest was his own business.
It all depended on whether Murong Zhen knew what was good for him. If he knew what was good for him and joined them, then there was nothing to say. Otherwise, Kang Zhaoming would exaggerate when he reported to Murong Zhen. He would make Murong Zhen appear at the scene and watch her die.
One had to admit that Kang Zhaoming was a very cunning person. He thought of a way to threaten Murong Zhen in an instant.
But before Zhaoming could say anything, Murong Zhen took the initiative, “It’s already dark now. If Deacon Kang doesn’t mind, why don’t you take a rest in this little girl’s wooden house for one night?”
Zhaoming’s eyes brightened up as he rubbed his hands together excitedly, but kept his face reserved,”Miss mu Rong, we’re a man and a woman alone here, is this … Appropriate?”
“What’s there to be inappropriate about? it’s this little girl’s honor to have Deacon Kang give me this face!” Murong Zhen’s eyes were as flirtatious as silk as he exhaled a breath of air. He reached for his waist and slowly unbuckled his belt.
Murong Zhen was well aware that her strength at the peak of the foundational level was only enough to intimidate normal newbies. Her body was her biggest asset, just like how she had won over Meng jueguang. If she wanted to hook up with Kang Zhaoming, sleeping with him was not only unavoidable, it was also the first and most important step.
It was only when they were in bed that it was the easiest for men to relax and let down their guard. As long as the pillow was blown by the wind, any request would be easy. This was the so-called “lust makes you lose your mind.”
Zhaoming and Murong Zhen were in cahoots, and the letter only reached lingchong’s hands after a night of fun.
“I see.” Xu lingchong looked through it carefully and came to a realization.
Young master Xu had been chasing Shangguan LAN ‘er for so many years, and he knew her temperament like the back of his hand. Although she had the temper of a young lady, she was a person who would repay kindness.
If Lin Yi really did save her life, then no matter how much she hated him, she’d still help if someone came to her for help. This explained why she went to the law enforcement Hall to help Lin Yi.
However, even though he thought this way, young master Xu was still a little worried. He had to ask Shangguan LAN ‘er face to face what her attitude towards Lin Yi was.
After all, it was too common for a hero to save a beauty. No matter how much the eldest miss disliked the poor boy in the beginning, it was not impossible for her to change her attitude and fall in love with the poor boy after being saved. Xu lingchong had to be careful.
“Well …” Facing Xu Linchong’s question, Shangguan LAN ‘er tilted her head and suddenly smiled,””Just like you said, I don’t want to owe him a favor, so I naturally have to help him.”
“There’s nothing else?” Xu lingchong said, unwilling to give up.
Hearing this, Shangguan LAN ‘er frowned, squinted at him, and said in an unpredictable tone,””What do you mean? Since when did I have to report my thoughts to you?”
