“What are you looking at? !”

Gu Yiping was shocked. Her fair feet quickly retracted under her skirt vigilantly.

Jiang Hong was stunned for a moment before he retracted his gaze and cleared his throat.

“I’m not looking at anything.”

‘You didn’t look? I clearly saw you, a lecher, staring at my feet…’ Gu Yiping bit her lower lip in shame.

Regarding this, Jiang Hong felt wronged. He swore to the heavens that he really didn’t mean to look at her feet.

In that instant, the moment he saw those small and exquisite feet, he subconsciously compared them with Ao Yueli’s feet. After all, one was a royal older sister, and the other was sweet little sister.

It was impossible not to compare.

He felt the need to explain.

“Senior Sister, anyone can appreciate beauty.” He cleared his throat with a serious expression.

Gu Yiping: ???

“I’m just admiring you. I don’t have any intention of offending you. Senior Sister, don’t worry. I definitely don’t have such thoughts about your feet.”

‘It was fine if you didn’t explain, but your explanation made me even more afraid.’ Gu Yiping’s heart trembled for no reason, but she unexpectedly felt a trace of comfort.

Gu Yiping pouted and took a sip of tea to hide her emotions.

“Alright, tell me what you want.”

“I want to know more about the Dao Alliance. Can Senior Sister tell me about it?”

“Why do you suddenly want to know this?”

Gu Yiping raised her eyebrows, her clear eyes scrutinizing Jiang Hong.

Originally, she wanted to decide what to do next based on Jiang Hong’s next moves. But she did not expect him to ask her about the Dao Alliance.

There must be a reason for this abnormality, not to mention that the other party was a future devil.

Jiang Hong imitated Ao Yueli and honestly flattered Gu Yiping.

“The Dao Alliance is the light of the orthodox sects, the goal that we cultivators of the orthodox sects strive for. That’s why I want to understand and pursue this light.”

Gu Yiping narrowed her eyes and put down her teacup.

“I can understand that you also want to join the Dao Alliance, right?”

‘Wrong, I was just thinking about how to make it easier for me to freeload in the future.’ Jiang Hong nodded affirmatively.

Gu Yiping pinched her chin and pondered for a long time. Her slender eyelashes trembled slightly as she spoke again.

“Private information can only be revealed after you join the Dao Alliance.”

‘Anyway, let’s see what tricks he’s up to first. In any case, it’s still up to me in the end,’ Gu Yiping thought to herself.

Jiang Hong thought for a moment and nodded. “I remember that Eldest Senior Sister should be the inspector general of the Dao Overseeing Temple of the Dao Alliance.”

“Yes.” Gu Yiping nodded affirmatively.

Jiang Hong continued to ask, “What is the specific task of an inspector general? Other than the Dao Overseeing Temple, what other organizations are there?”

If he wanted to understand Number Four’s true identity, he had to first understand the organizational structure of the Dao Alliance. This way, it would be easier to investigate.

Gu Yiping pondered for a moment. Thinking that this was not something worth hiding, she introduced,

“The Dao Alliance is mainly founded by the major sects and a few aristocratic families. There are mainly three organizations inside, namely the Dao Overseeing Temple, the Judgement Temple, and the Evaluation Temple.

“Among them, the Dao Overseeing Temple that I belong to is mainly in charge of hunting down cultivators who have betrayed their sect and left the orthodox path to fall into the demonic path. The Judgment Temple will then sentence the cultivators we captured.”

“As for the Evaluation Temple…”

At this point, Gu Yiping paused for a moment. After taking a deep breath, she continued,

“The Evaluation Temple is mainly responsible for periodically reviewing the major sects and aristocratic families that have joined the Cultivation Alliance in order to determine if they have betrayed the orthodox path.”

“Evaluating the sects?” Jiang Hong raised his eyebrows, “Isn’t the authority of this Evaluation Temple a little too high?”

In this way, wouldn’t the Evaluation Temple be standing on the heads of other sects? Would the other sects have no objections?

Gu Yiping continued to explain, “The Evaluation Temple has a rule that it must recruit one member from each sect and aristocratic family in Dao Alliance. Moreover, these members who enter the Evaluation Temple are jointly reviewed by our Dao Overseeing Temple and the Judgment Temple.”

“In other words, they’re restricting each other.” Jiang Hong nodded in understanding.

Although there were still some loopholes in the rules, it was already not bad since there were no perfect rules in this world.

From the looks of it, the possibility of Number Four being a spy in the Evaluation Temple was lower. As for the other two, it was hard to say for the time being. The details would have to wait until later.

If it really didn’t work out, he could try his best to join the Dao Alliance. After all, Gu Yiping was there as well. He couldn’t bear to part with Senior Sister Gu’s attribute-attracting physique.

As Jiang Hong pondered, Gu Yiping took the opportunity to quietly observe him.

To be honest, Gu Yiping was a little surprised. She did not expect him to think so seriously, as if he really had the intention to join the Cultivation Alliance.

‘Could it be that I really misunderstood him… Maybe this time, he really has the intention to side with the righteous path? If that’s the case, can I also…’

“Thank you for clearing my doubts, Senior Sister Gu. I’ve benefited greatly. It’s getting late, I’ll go back first.” Jiang Hong politely cupped his hands and stood up to leave.

“Huh?!” Gu Yiping came back to her senses and blurted out, “Are you leaving already?”

“Senior Sister wants me to stay the night?” Jiang Hong immediately stopped.

Jiang Hong looked back excitedly.

Didn’t that mean that he could freeload again?

‘He is actually so happy. Can it be that he is really looking forward to living with me?’ Originally, she was anxious because she had said something wrong, but when she saw Jiang Hong’s excited gaze, her gaze could not help but become dazed.

In an instant, her previous guesses surged into her mind.

“Nothing. Rest early.”

Gu Yiping retracted her gaze and revealed a rare smile.

“Mm, Senior Sister Gu should rest early too.”

Jiang Hong responded with a smile and left.

Gu Yiping placed her jade-like hand by the window. Her deep eyes looked at the departing figure with mixed feelings until that figure disappeared.

After a long time, she retracted her gaze. Since it had become like this, why not confirm the other party’s true intentions first? In any case, he would come to her place tomorrow and stay there for the entire day.

She had plenty of time to slowly develop and understand him.

If he really became better…

At the thought of this, Gu Yiping’s gaze landed on her dainty and delicate feet.

Like a strawberry, her sparkling toes wriggled restlessly.

His deep gaze seemed to have decided something.

Just like that, Gu Yiping waited for Jiang Hong’s arrival the next day with expectations that even she did not realize.

Then, she waited for three days without seeing anyone.

…

On the second day after learning about the Dao Alliance from Gu Yiping.

The morning sun was bright. He woke up early as usual and dressed up.

However, he did not go to look for Eldest Senior Sister as usual today.

His goal today was visit his junior sister, who was actually his senior aunt in the cave abode of the sect-guarding beast. In order to be able to face off against Number Four in the future, he requested to learn divine powers and become stronger.

He arrived at the entrance of the Blue Wave Pond with ease and was about to enter.

“Brother Hong, please ride gently. Although I’m not a human, I’m also not a vehicle.”

Jiang Hong: ???
