I'm No Devil...

In the courtyard where Jiang Lin lived, his senior sister and Mo Li sat on either side of the chairs in the reception hall.

After his senior sister and Mo Li arrived, Jiang Lin Xiao Xiao demonstrated his skills and then "called back," indicating that there was Sect Competition the next day and he needed to conserve his energy.

Although the cultivators from the Empty Spirit Sect were very unhappy, they still cursed a few times at Jiang Lin's courtyard before leaving.

Honestly, it's pretty embarrassing to be unable to even beat someone else's pet beast...

After they left, at Jiang Lin's suggestion, Senior Sister and Mo Li first left to avoid suspicion, and then entered from the backyard.

It wasn't that Jiang Lin was afraid his senior sisters would cause any gossip by entering his residence. Although he and his senior sisters hadn't yet crossed that final line, they were mutually attracted to each other. How could that be gossip?

Jiang Lin was mainly worried about Mo Li's reputation. Recently, the rumors that "Jiang Lin, the Flower-Picking Thief, married into the Empty Spirit Sect and reached the pinnacle of life by marrying Mo Li" had been spreading like wildfire.

If Mo Li were to openly enter her house again, what would become of her? Would that young lady ever be able to get married?

Even if I'm shameless, how can a young woman resist?

No... when did I ever become shameless? I'm actually quite thin-skinned!

"Who are those people outside...?"

"Oh, it's alright, Miss Mo, don't worry. It's just a rumor that 'our Brother Jiang is going to marry into the Empty Spirit Sect and marry you, Miss Mo.' It'll spread in a few days... Awoo~~~"

Before Wu Ke could finish speaking, Jiang Lin stepped on the back of Wu Ke's foot...

But Wu Ke has already said what he shouldn't have...

"Marry into the Empty Spirit Sect? To marry me?"

A blush crept onto the girl's cheeks.

"Hmm? Mo Li, don't you know? There's a newspaper that just came out today."

"Catch her skirt! Mo Li! Senior Sister, wait a minute!"

Jiang Lin was about to stand up to stop them, but Fang Chaoqun had already stuffed the newspaper into the hands of her senior sister and Mo Li.

The lobby was completely silent! Looking at Wu Ke and Fang Chaoqun "brother, this is all I can do for you" attitude, Jiang Lin wanted nothing more than to kick them away!

Swallowing hard, Jiang Lin looked at his senior sister with trepidation, constantly watching her facial expression.

As soon as my senior sister draws her sword, I'll run away. As for explanations, I'll deal with that after she calms down...

However, to everyone's surprise, the senior sister simply blushed and put down the newspaper. She held Mo Li's small hand in her slender hand, then raised her beautiful eyes and gave Jiang Lin a reproachful look. She was so cute it was almost criminal, Jiang Lin felt his heart beat faster.

On the other side, a blush had spread across Mo Li's face, and even her ears were lovelyly moistened by the rosy glow.

After making the promise, Mo Li lowered her head even further, holding her senior sister's slender hand tightly with one hand, while her other hand rested on her thigh, gripping the hem of her skirt tightly, as if the innocent heroine from a shoujo manga had broken through dimensions and come before you.

Inside the lobby, the overwhelmingly sweet aroma reminded Wu Ke and Fang Chaoqun of Lianhua and their cousin, respectively. Feeling nauseous from the sweetness, they quickly slipped out.

Jiang Lin had thought his senior sister would be angry because of the rumors between him and Mo Li, but she didn't seem angry at all; in fact, she seemed a little shy.

What the hell is this?

Could this be a new reaction from my senior sister before she turns evil?

This left Jiang Lin feeling awkward, unsure whether to slip away or stay put...

"Senior sister, Miss Mo Li actually..."

"Young Master Jiang, is all of this true? Grandpa really asked you... asked you..." As she spoke, the girl's face turned as red as a strawberry soaked in the morning light, "... asked you... to marry me...?"

The last word came out of the girl's mouth as if she had used all her strength. Mo Li's head was lowered as low as it could go, and even her eyes were slightly moist.

Jiang Lin was startled.

Oh no, am I really that bad? Miss Mo Li even cried because I might have to marry her...

Jiang Lin felt he had been dealt a blow.

Is my reputation really that bad?

Actually, I'm a really great person. I'm handsome and capable.

"That... Mo Li's grandfather did indeed contact me, and those rumors are indeed true."

Jiang Lin explained while organizing his thoughts, but seeing Mo Li's body tremble slightly, Jiang Lin quickly slowed down his speech.

"But Mo Li, don't worry. I refused your grandfather's suggestion at the time. Mo Li, you don't need to worry about anything. I... Eh? Mo Li? Mo Li?"

Before Jiang Lin could finish speaking, he saw Mo Li cover her mouth, stand up, and run out of the hall!

"Little Lin! You idiot! You Big Idiot!"

The senior sister also stood up, angrily stomped on Jiang Lin's instep, and then chased after Mo Li.

Only Jiang Lin stood in the lobby, looking completely bewildered...

Jiang Lin felt he had said something wrong.

But I don't think I said anything wrong...

No way! In manga, the male protagonist always chases after the girl!

Although he didn't know what he had done wrong, Jiang Lin got up to chase after him. However, just as Jiang Lin stepped out the door, Jiji Bo, Diao Da, and the others carrying a cultivator bumped into Jiang Lin.

Diao Da: "Brother Jiang, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Jiji Bo: "Brother Jiang, look, the man has been captured. When do we interrogate him?"

Seeing the Empty Spirit Sect cultivator bound in tortoise shells, his mouth sewn shut, and thrown on the ground, Jiang Lin kicked him away.

"No rush! I have more important things to do!"

"Oh, Brother Jiang, what could be more urgent than an interrogation?"

"Diao Da, don't pull me! This is a major life event for me!"

"Oh? Brother Jiang, did you upset your wife? I'll have to have a serious talk with Brother Jiang about that."

"What the hell..."

As Jiang Lin struggled free from the pull of Diao Da and Jiji Bo, and was about to take off on his Sword Flight, he looked up at the sky, only to find that his senior sister and Mo Li had long since vanished without a trace...

"Sigh... never mind, I'll explain later. I'll just take this opportunity to sort things out..."

With a sigh, Jiang Lin pulled himself together and looked at the terrified Empty Spirit Sect disciple on the ground.

While the disciples of the Empty Spirit Sect came to provoke him, Jiang Lin, wearing Sunglasses, kept observing the onlookers.

Some were indignant, some were just watching the show, and others were captivated by their own good looks.

However, one or two of them kept looking around and talking, as if they were instigating something.

These people are online trolls deliberately stirring up trouble, and behind these trolls, there must be an employer!

Squatting down, Jiang Lin, who was not in a good mood, removed the gag from his mouth.

"You dare kidnap me! Do you think my Empty Spirit Sect has no one left? Release me now! I'll give you a way out. Otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?"

Like a demon, Jiang Lin leaned over and whispered in his ear. The cold tone made the guy shudder and tremble involuntarily.

"Fellow Daoist... do you want to debut as an idol? I'm not some kind of devil..."
