Xiao Tian might barely tolerate such words coming from that little girl Le Yaoyao, but hearing them from Lin Bingxuan felt a bit off.
With a puzzled look, Xiao Tian pressed on, "Then please explain, what's there to admire? And what's so admirable?"
"Ahem!" Lin Bingxuan coughed and said seriously, "You can charm both n and won; how can people not admire and praise you for that?"
Xiao Tian finally understood that Lin Bingxuan was intentionally mocking him and imdiately showed a mischievous smile, slowly approaching her: "Seems like I've been too gentle with you recently!"
Lin Bingxuan blushed and pushed him away, "Stop fooling around; there are so many people here!" As she spoke, she rembered how Huang Shangtian admired Xiao Tian and couldn't help but laugh.
Xiao Tian shook his head with a wry smile, thinking about how influence shapes people. Lin Bingxuan, who was once a graceful and elegant girl, started to resemble linda and Le Yaoyao more in character after spending ti with them.
However, what the two didn't know was that returning to Shanghai wouldn't an the crisis was resolved, nor would things have reached a conclusion.
Instead, it marked the start of another troubleso chapter...

On the other side, Ji Dantong gazed at the exquisite longsword in her hand, noting every detail in its patterns, rendering her montarily speechless with excitent.
In front of her, Deng Shulan shook her head and sighed, a typical reaction of the young, who always equate splendor with strength.
"Mission accomplished, don't forget what you promised !" Deng Shulan waved her hand in a gesture to send her off.
Ji Dantong quickly responded, "Rest assured, Master Deng! I'll take my leave now."
After bidding farewell to Deng Shulan, Ji Dantong felt like a giddy schoolgirl, almost wanting to skip as she walked.
However, just as she stepped out the door, she couldn't skip anymore because she was t head-on by the tall and short figures of Sun Miaohan and Bai Xiaoxuan.
The two were walking and chatting happily, though mostly it was Sun Miaohan talking to herself, while Bai Xiaoxuan seed a bit uneasy, her delicate brows constantly knitting and then relaxing.
Unsurprisingly, when the two parties t, they both froze, followed by Sun Miaohan's curious inquiry, "Junior sister, what did Master Deng want with you?"
"Nothing!" Ji Dantong replied coldly, then turned her gaze to Bai Xiaoxuan, her expression finally softening a bit. She leaned down, patted her on the head, and smiled as she asked, "How's it going, Xuanxuan? Are you doing okay these days?"
Bai Xiaoxuan looked up at Sun Miaohan, hesitated a little, then nodded. It wasn't that Sun Miaohan was unkind, but that her ticulous care was a bit overwhelming.
Even so, Bai Xiaoxuan could feel that Sun Miaohan's kindness was genuine, not an attempt to curry favor with her due to her being favored by the higher-ups in the sect.
But to Ji Dantong, it seed entirely different. In her eyes, Bai Xiaoxuan, this innocent child, falling into Sun Miaohan's clutches, would be a miracle if she turned out alright.
"Xuanxuan, don't be afraid. In a couple of days, I'll speak with the master and let you move in with ." Ji Dantong whispered into Bai Xiaoxuan's ear, "You've had a hard ti these days, haven't you?"
Bai Xiaoxuan whispered back, "Not really, Miaohan is actually very nice to !"
Ji Dantong's brows furrowed imdiately: "Is she forcing you to say this? You're quite important to the sect leaders now. If you're wronged, just say so; she wouldn't dare do anything to you."
"There's really nothing, Dantong, don't worry!" Bai Xiaoxuan added, "But it doesn't hurt if you talk to the master!"
Seeing Bai Xiaoxuan, who was mumbling with her head down, Ji Dantong's expression confird her suspicions. Her gaze grew indignant.
However, before she could speak, Sun Miaohan was already unhappily saying, "Junior sister, slandering in front of Xuanxuan like this is quite hurtful!"
Ji Dantong huffed coldly, "If you were really kind to Xuanxuan, why would she tell to see the master?!"
"It was you who said that; do you think others are deaf?" Sun Miaohan countered, "And speaking of which, how did you threaten Xuanxuan to make her so obedient to you?"
With that, Sun Miaohan also squatted down, lightly grabbing Bai Xiaoxuan's slender arm, and softly asked, "Xuanxuan, did she threaten you to stay away from , telling you how vicious I am?"
Bai Xiaoxuan honestly shook her head, "No!"
In the next mont, Sun Miaohan suddenly jumped, "See, if you hadn't scared Xuanxuan, would she be so afraid to speak up?!"
"You!" Ji Dantong was so angry she seed ready to explode, her breathing growing heavy, "Xuanxuan, let's go find the master!" With that, she grabbed Bai Xiaoxuan to leave.
But Sun Miaohan was quick to block her, mockingly saying, "So flustered, is it because I hit the nail on the head?"
"Also, as your senior sister, I have a duty to remind you," Sun Miaohan said, glancing at Ji Dantong's chest and couldn't help but tease, "If there's not much up front, don't take deep breaths in the future; outsiders won't see a difference!"
At this point, Sun Miaohan provocatively puffed out her chest, unashadly displaying her pride.
Bai Xiaoxuan truly felt like she was about to collapse. These two senior sisters would always fight at the sight of each other, but as if that wasn't enough, they always dragged her into it. What did she ever do to deserve this?
As she pondered, Ji Dantong and Sun Miaohan suddenly separated, and each pulled on Bai Xiaoxuan's arm as if ready to start a tug of war.
Ji Dantong said coolly, "Xuanxuan, didn't you just say you wanted to talk to the master? Let's go now!"
"Xuanxuan, you also said earlier that I've been good to you, and she's the one threatening you to complain, right?" Sun Miaohan retorted defiantly.
With both of them constantly talking, Bai Xiaoxuan, who found herself in the middle of the "battlefield," felt her head getting bigger with the potential to go mad!
"Xuanxuan, co with and don't be swayed by her."
"Xuanxuan, don't let her threaten you; I'll uphold justice for you!"
"Xuanxuan..."
Feeling dizzy and unable to bear it any longer, Bai Xiaoxuan's cultivation technique spontaneously activated as she softly, yet sternly, uttered, "Stop!"
Though Bai Xiaoxuan's voice wasn't loud, as soon as she spoke, both Ji Dantong and Sun Miaohan felt a jolt in their hearts, rendering them unable to finish their words, as if soone had grabbed their throats.
Of course, Bai Xiaoxuan's powers were still weak, and she could only make them silent for a breath, yet this brief mont prevented them from resuming their verbal assault.
Finally relieved, Bai Xiaoxuan looked at her two astonished senior sisters and said apologetically, "I'm sorry!"
Neither of them had the heart to continue fighting and both said it was okay.
