Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Chapter 2015 Tell me, why did you betray the Heavenly Fortune Sect?

Seeing her younger sister still carelessly putting pastries into her mouth, Zhou Xiaoxiao became furious.

However, the thought that she might be under some kind of spell that made her so devoted to Lu Chen made her suppress her anger.

To be honest, she seriously doubted whether her sister was really under a curse.

Lu Chen had already told her that he hadn't cast any curses on the two of them; it was simply that they were lusting after his body.

At this moment, Zhou Youyou spoke up, "Sister, it's so late, we should go back too."

Although Lu Chen allowed them to freely enter and leave the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, they rarely stayed out overnight and returned to the mansion almost every night.

This was the first time they had stayed out so late and hadn't gone home yet.

Seeing that her younger sister was eager to go back, Zhou Xiaoxiao's anger, which she had just suppressed, resurfaced.

She's incredibly worried right now, but her sister seems completely unconcerned about what their leader thinks of them.

Zhou Youyou naturally knew what her sister was thinking, and she continued, "Sister, there's no use thinking about these things now. If the leader doesn't want to believe what we're saying, no matter how much you explain, she'll only think you're lying to her."

Hearing Zhou Youyou's words, Zhou Xiaoxiao sighed inwardly. Her sister was right. Indeed, once the seeds of doubt were sown, it wouldn't be so easy to get the cult leader to trust them again.

Zhou Youyou got up from the stone bench, stretched, and then said, "Sister, I'm a little sleepy. I want to go back."

At this time in the past, she would already be in bed with Lu Chen.

Seeing that Zhou Youyou was in such a hurry to go back, Zhou Xiaoxiao immediately guessed what she was thinking. Her younger sister must want to do "that kind of thing" with Lu Chen again.

Zhou Xiaoxiao felt utterly helpless.

She had been practicing dual cultivation with Lu Chen frequently during this period, so she was well aware of how tempting it was for them; even she herself couldn't resist the temptation.

However, whenever Zhou Xiaoxiao thought of the Heavenly Fortune Sect and their leader, she felt a sense of guilt.

She now tries to numb herself, blaming it all on Lu Chen casting some kind of spell on them.

Of course, she knew in her heart that this was just self-deception.

If Lu Chen really did cast some kind of spell on them, she wouldn't still be thinking about the Heavenly Fortune Sect, nor would she feel any guilt.

Zhou Xiaoxiao also got up from the stone bench at this time.

Since my sister really wants to go back and be bullied by that jerk, then let her go back.

Anyway, they won't be able to wait for the Heavenly Fortune Sect's mission.

However, just as the two sisters were preparing to return to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, a clear, cold voice rang out from the tree: "The Left and Right Protectors are quite leisurely."

Upon hearing the sound, the two women were immediately startled. They looked up at the tree and saw a woman in red standing on a branch. A gentle breeze blew, causing her red skirt to flutter and her black hair to sway in the wind.

Zhou Xiaoxiao was the first to react. She immediately bowed to Xu Jingshu in the tree and said, "Greetings, Holy Maiden."

Zhou Youyou seemed to wake from a dream and quickly bowed to Xu Jingshu.

Xu Jingshu originally did not intend to let them know that she had come to the capital.

However, during this period of time, she tried every means but failed to infiltrate the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

The Zhennan Prince's Mansion is now an impenetrable fortress; their people can't gather any useful information. Finally, Xu Jingshu thought of Zhou Xiaoxiao and her sister.

In her view, the two sisters should not have completely betrayed the Heavenly Fortune Sect, but were only threatened in some way, which is why they had to leak some information about the Heavenly Fortune Sect to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

If I could save them, the two sisters might see the error of their ways.

Xu Jingshu also knew that this was very risky, after all, she and her sister had both fallen at the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

To prevent herself from falling into the trap set by the Prince of Zhennan's mansion, she sent people to keep an eye on the mansion, Zhou Xiaoxiao, and Zhou Youyou.

After observing for a period of time, she confirmed that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion did not send anyone to follow the two sisters after they left the mansion.

She had made a point of having the surrounding courtyards kept a close watch on them today, and only after confirming that there were no ambushes from the Prince of Zhennan's mansion did Xu Jingshu come out to meet the two sisters.

At this moment, Xu Jingshu leaped down from the tree and landed in front of Zhou Xiaoxiao, then asked, "Tell me, why did you betray the Heavenly Fortune Sect?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiaoxiao quickly replied, "Holy Maiden, I have never betrayed the Heavenly Fortune Sect."

Xu Jingshu sneered: "You dare to send false information like Lu Chen possesses infinite vitality and can resist the erosion of the evil spirits to the Heavenly Fortune Sect? You're telling me you haven't betrayed the Heavenly Fortune Sect?"

Zhou Xiaoxiao fell silent.

As expected, their leader did not believe the message she conveyed.

Zhou Xiaoxiao suddenly understood why her younger sister had made her experience it herself.

This is indeed too outrageous. If she hadn't experienced it herself, she wouldn't have believed it. Lu Chen possesses infinite vitality and can even help them improve their cultivation.

Seeing that Zhou Xiaoxiao remained silent, Xu Jingshu's gaze fell on Zhou Youyou: "Left Protector, tell me, what exactly happened? How did the Zhennan Prince's Mansion threaten you?"

“I don’t believe that humans have the means to threaten the supernatural. You should know very well that even if you are sealed by the Zhennan Prince’s Mansion, the sect leader will help you break the seal and rescue you one day.”

Before Zhou Youyou could speak, Zhou Xiaoxiao sighed helplessly and took the initiative to say, "Holy Maiden, I know you may not believe what we say, but everything we say is true."

As she spoke, Zhou Xiaoxiao released the aura of a mid-stage Xuan Realm cultivator.

Sensing Zhou Xiaoxiao's aura, Xu Jingshu fell silent for a moment, her gaze sweeping over Zhou Xiaoxiao.

When Zhou Xiaoxiao left the Heavenly Fortune Sect, she was only at the early stage of the Profound Realm, but now she has actually broken through to the middle stage of the Profound Realm.

For them, without exceptionally high-quality blood food, it is extremely difficult to advance their cultivation level.

If Zhou Xiaoxiao wants to advance from the early stage of the Profound Realm to the middle stage, she needs to devour at least tens of thousands of ordinary blood foods to aid her cultivation, and even then, she may not be able to break through.

Seeing that Xu Jingshu did not speak, Zhou Xiaoxiao continued, "The Holy Maiden should know how difficult it is for us to break through a small realm, let alone in just a few months. Without high-quality blood food, let alone a few months, even in ten or twenty years, I may not be able to break through to the mid-stage of the Profound Realm."

Xu Jingshu remained silent and did not speak.

Her cold eyes were fixed on Zhou Xiaoxiao's beautiful face, as if trying to find traces of a lie on her face.

Xu Jingshu certainly understood how difficult it was to break through a minor realm in the mysterious realm.

However, she had never heard of a human being possessing limitless vitality and being able to resist strange corruption.

Xu Jingshu preferred to believe that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion used a large amount of high-quality blood food to help Zhou Xiaoxiao break through, and then fabricated the lie that Lu Chen possessed unlimited vitality. (End of this chapter)
