This man is actually at the Foundation Establishment stage!
Bai Tong had never encountered anyone of her age and cultivation level before. Not to mention, he was exceptionally handsome, with broad shoulders and long legs. She had never seen a man like him in her sect. Such a man was worthy of her.
As Bai Tong noticed him approaching, she raised her lips in a smile, ready to speak to him. But then she saw him take Ruan Fuxi's hand.
Her eyes narrowed slightly, and her expression darkened.
Sheng Yanzhou looked at Ruan Fuxi with concern, not sparing a glance at Bai Tong.
"Xiao Xi, I waited for you in the car for a while. When I didn’t see you come out, I came to find you. Did something happen?"
Ruan Fuxi tilted her chin toward Bai Tong. "I just stepped out when this Miss Bai stopped me, which delayed me a bit."
Only then did Sheng Yanzhou glance at Bai Tong, his expression indifferent, devoid of any emotion.
Bai Tong had witnessed how gentle and considerate he had been toward Ruan Fuxi just moments ago, and a hint of jealousy stirred within her. How could an ordinary fortune teller like Ruan Fuxi be worthy of someone like him? Only someone at the Foundation Establishment stage like herself was truly fit to stand by his side.
At that moment, Bai Tong looked at Ruan Fuxi with a serious expression and declared solemnly, "Daoist Ruan, I just want to clarify why your talismans are identical to those in the ancient texts passed down by our sect. If you can't provide evidence, I have no choice but to suspect that you have stolen our sect's ancient texts."
Bai Tong secretly glanced at Sheng Yanzhou, thinking to herself that he had chosen someone who was secretly stealing from other sects.
However, Ruan Fuxi burst into laughter upon hearing this. "Miss Bai, you say my talismans are the same as those in your sect's ancient texts? What evidence do you have? You can't just slander me without proof."
Bai Tong retorted angrily, "I read our sect's ancient texts frequently; how could I possibly mistake them?"
Ruan Fuxi smirked and replied, "Then why don’t you draw a Ghost Suppression Talisman for me to see?"
Bai Tong fell silent.
She couldn't draw it out, which made her doubt Ruan Fuxi.
Ruan Fuxi chuckled lightly, "Since there's no evidence, Miss Bai, it's better not to speak carelessly. I have things to attend to today, so you can do as you please."
After saying that, Ruan Fuxi took Sheng Yanzhou's hand and they got into the car together.
Bai Tong watched their retreating figures with a dark expression. Ruan Fuxi, truly something else.
After they left, Bai Tong searched online for a while and discovered that the handsome man was actually quite wealthy. The only downside was his poor taste; how could he have taken a liking to Ruan Fuxi?
Bai Tong looked at Ruan Fuxi, who was gaining popularity online through live-stream fortune-telling, and couldn't help but curl her lip. What was so great about fortune-telling that she had to flaunt it? It was just fooling around with clueless netizens.
Thinking of Sheng Yanzhou's foundation-building cultivation level, his billions in wealth, and his outstanding appearance, she still felt a bit unwilling. Such a good man—did Ruan Fuxi really deserve him?
Ruan Fuxi was unaware of Bai Tong's thoughts. If she knew, she would definitely scoff. Did she think she had a chance with Yanzhou? What a dreamer.
At that moment, sitting in the car, Sheng Yanzhou said to her, "That person just now doesn't seem like a good person, Xiaoxi. She has hostility towards you."
Ruan Fuxi nodded. "I know. She's from the Bai Mountain faction; her aptitude is decent, but her character isn't."
Then she added, "I'm planning to attend an internal exchange meeting of the Xuanmen sect; I might need to be away for a while."
She initially wanted to say that they might be apart for a few days, but Sheng Yanzhou quickly interjected:
"I'll sign up too," she said.
Ruan Fuxi was taken aback for a moment.
That's right, Yan Zhou could participate as well; how could she have forgotten about that?
Seeing her in a daze, Sheng Yanzhou asked curiously, "What's wrong, Xiao Xi? Am I not allowed to join?"
