Lying with a Straight Face

Tang Yu chuckled, chatted with the group of senior female students for a while, and then opened one of her suitcases.

"By the way, senior sisters, my family owns a shopping mall. These are some small gifts I brought from home. I hope you like them."

I saw that box full of cosmetics and stuff.

A group of female disciples' eyes lit up.

What woman doesn't love beauty? They are naturally drawn to cosmetics and similar products.

However, once you enter the Nine Heavens Alliance, it's not easy to get out.

These outer sect female disciples lacked sufficient strength and rarely had the opportunity to go out.

Whenever someone goes out, they ask them to bring things in, and cosmetics are always among the items they bring.

After letting out a scream, they all crowded around and began picking and choosing.

"Senior sisters, don't rush to grab it. Let me recommend one for you. Senior Sister Zhu, this lipstick suits you perfectly. This 'man-slaying' color goes very well with your fair skin."

"This senior sister looks better without makeup. I suggest she get two bottles of SK-II Facial Treatment Essence; its skincare effects are excellent."

Tang Yu, as skilled as a saleswoman, proactively helped these female colleagues choose items.

After the gifts were presented, the senior sisters, regardless of their cultivation levels, became noticeably more affectionate towards Tang Yu.

Good-looking, sweet-talking, and always giving gifts—it's hard not to like a junior like that.

"Let's go, let's go. Let's take you to get the formalities done first."

After Zhu Qingqing happily put away the gifts, she pulled Tang Yu to complete the formalities and arrange accommodations.

Along the way, she recounted the situation of the Nine Heavens Alliance in great detail.

After escorting Tang Yu to her room, she made a special trip to knock on the door and gave instructions to the other three outer disciples in the courtyard, asking them to take good care of Tang Yu.

After Zhu Qingqing left, many disciples from other families stood at the courtyard gate with surprised expressions, craning their necks to look around.

What's up with the new guy who came today?

First came a pretentious troublemaker who immediately beat Qiu Wuyi and the others half to death.

Now another pretty boy, personally brought here by Senior Sister Zhu, has appeared?

This made them slightly unhappy.

Meanwhile, a group of disciples from other clans, led by Wang Kangping, were gathered together drinking and celebrating.

Although they didn't like Ye Qiu.

But seeing Qiu Wuyi and his group get beaten up, they were naturally happy too.

They're all annoying people anyway, so they'd be happy if anyone got beaten up.

At this moment, a disciple from another family ran in from outside and told Wang Kangping that another new disciple had arrived.

Upon learning that a new person had arrived, Wang Kangping stopped drinking and instead called his companions to head straight to Tang Yu's residence.

When they arrived, Tang Yu was cleaning inside the house.

This house has been empty for a long time and no one has lived there; it's accumulated a lot of dust.

The other three outer disciples who lived in the same courtyard as him were also helping.

They all wore new designer watches and worked with extra enthusiasm.

This new junior brother is quite sensible. He is highly skilled yet humble, and he even gives gifts upon meeting us. Naturally, they have to reciprocate by helping and taking care of him.

"This must be the new junior brother."

After Wang Kangping entered, he greeted Tang Yu Tang Yu with a smile, shook hands with Tang Yu, and began to introduce himself in the usual way, trying to win her over.

Tang Yu's attitude was also quite friendly, as if he had met a fellow countryman in a foreign land.

After a warm welcome and flattery, he opened his suitcase and took out several well-prepared luxury watches to present to Wang Kangping and the others.

Patek Philippe, Rolex, and the like—they're all in the millions.

After this exchange of gifts and conversation, Wang Kangping and his group felt a warm glow in their hearts.

They came with good intentions to win over Tang Yu.

I never expected my junior brother Ling Jun to be so sensible.

Having suffered a setback with Ye Qiu before, they genuinely felt that this Junior Brother Ling Jun was someone they could get along with.

"Come on, bro, let's go over to my place for a few drinks."

After putting on his watch, Wang Kangping put his arm around Tang Yu, his face flushed, and invited her in.

"Senior Brother Wang, you're too kind. Let's drink another time. I still have to clean today, and I can't let the three of you work so hard here."

Tang Yu smiled and politely declined.

The three people cleaning inside felt a warmth in their hearts upon hearing this, and quickly said it was no problem and that Tang Yu could go have a drink, adding that they had nothing else to do and cleaning was no big deal.

After some initial refusals, Tang Yu ultimately decided not to go drinking with Wang Kangping and his group.

Before leaving, Wang Kangping made an appointment with Tang Yu the next day to listen to the elder's lecture and discuss their martial arts experiences.

After leaving the small courtyard where Tang Yu lived, Wang Kangping stood at the door and looked back at the courtyard with emotion.

"This Junior Brother Ling is a really good person; we should get to know each other better in the future."

"Who says otherwise? He's much better than that guy surnamed Ye."

Someone else agreed.

The group laughed and went back to drink.

They had only been gone a short while when several more people entered Tang Yu's courtyard.

Only three people entered this time. The man in the lead was a full two meters tall, with a bald head and an undeniable aura of strength.

It was none other than Qiu Wuji, hailed as the number one outer disciple!

He is also Qiu Wuyi's older brother.

With his strength, he could have entered the inner sect long ago.

He wasn't in a hurry to go to the inner sect just to take care of his younger brother. He planned to wait until his brother's cultivation level improved before the two brothers went to the inner sect together.

While he was cultivating today, he suddenly received news that his younger brother had been seriously injured by a newcomer on the martial arts stage.

He wasn't particularly angry about it.

The dueling arena was where the disciples of the Nine Heavens Alliance vented their frustrations.

If you don't like someone, just go up and challenge them to a duel.

If his younger brother loses, it's because he's not as skilled, but as the older brother, he has to stand up for him.

"Is this the place?"

Qiu Wuji pointed to Tang Yu's room and looked at the two disciples surnamed Qiu who were traveling with him, asking in a deep voice.

"Yes, the newcomer lives here."

The two disciples surnamed Qiu nodded, unaware that they had made a mistake.

So Qiu Wuji strode over and knocked heavily on the door.

Hearing the noise, Tang Yu thought it was Wang Kangping and the others returning.

He ran to open the door and found a tall, imposing man whose strength was almost at the peak of the Heaven Realm.

So he deliberately feigned surprise and said, "Louis Koo?"

"What?"

Qiu Wuji an eyebrow and looked at Tang Yu, saying, "Are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else?"

"Oh, sorry, I'm a fan of his. You two look alike, I mistook you for someone else, but you are taller."

Tang Yu quickly explained with a smile.

Qiu Wuji hummed in agreement, and his mood improved somewhat.

Sure enough, there are quite a few people who think they are Yingjun.

The two outer disciples surnamed Qiu standing behind Qiu Wuji looked at Tang Yu with the eyes of someone looking at a sycophant.

That son of a bitch is blatantly lying.

The only thing Qiu Wuji has in common with Louis Koo is that they are both human.
