Chapter 1348: Chapter 1348: What Purpose?

Zu Hanjiao seemed to be aware that she wasn’t very welcome by Xia Chenyu and Li Chenzhou, so in the following two days, she stayed honestly in her place, being unusually low-key.

This made Fang Bai feel somewhat embarrassed. During this time, accompanied by Xia Chenyu and Li Chenzhou, he went to Zu Hanjiao’s guest room and sat for a while, talking with her for a few sentences.

The next evening, Fang Bai had Xia Chenyu keep Zu Hanjiao company in the guest room, while he and Li Chenzhou went out for a trip. As for where they went and what they did, both of them were secretive and tight-lipped.

However, Xia Chenyu could still discern some unusual information from Li Chenzhou’s expression, making it hard for her to calm down and focus on cultivating in the middle of the night, ultimately running over to Fang Bai’s room next door to inquire.

"Fang Bai, I always feel like there was something important concealed from me when you and Brother Li went out this evening. I don’t care, if you don’t tell me the truth today, I will stay here and not leave."

Upon entering Fang Bai’s room, Xia Chenyu sat down by Fang Bai’s bed and said sulkily.

"In the dead of night, a beautiful girl like you comes to my room and sits on my bed. This is really testing my willpower!"

Fang Bai sat down beside Xia Chenyu, wrapped his arm around her slender waist, and said with a sly smile.

"Don’t change the topic, talk about the serious stuff!"

Xia Chenyu twisted her delicate body, opened Fang Bai’s mischievous hand, and with a stern face, showed a determined stance of getting to the bottom of things.

"The reason for not telling you is that I’m afraid you’ll worry. But if you truly want to know, I can tell you, but you have to listen to me. Understand?"

Fang Bai placed his hands on Xia Chenyu’s fragrant shoulders, his gaze fixed intently on her exquisite and lovely face, asking solemnly.

"What on earth is it?"

Seeing Fang Bai’s unprecedented seriousness, Xia Chenyu suddenly felt a little flustered, grasped Fang Bai’s hand in reverse, and asked nervously.

"This matter... is related to Zu Hanjiao."

When Fang Bai mentioned the name "Zu Hanjiao," a cold gleam flashed in his eyes.

Every courtyard guest room in "Yuezhi Inn" was equipped with a Gathering Essence Array, allowing guests to be bathed in the rich Heaven and Earth Origin Energy at all times.

The Gathering Essence Array not only allowed the absorption of Heaven and Earth Origin Energy but also isolated the guest room from the outside, so those outside couldn’t hear the activity inside, protecting the guests’ privacy from being leaked.

However, Fang Bai knew that this isolation effect of the Gathering Essence Array was not very effective against Innate experts like them.

Therefore, after checking into "Yuezhi Inn," Fang Bai set up an inner array within his courtyard room, so that even a Foundation Establishment Expert stronger than an Innate Expert wouldn’t be able to spy on the activities inside Fang Bai’s guest room.

Fang Bai knew that Zu Hanjiao was definitely trying to eavesdrop on the movements on his side, but with Zu Hanjiao’s current strength, her Divine Sense couldn’t penetrate the inner array he set up.

With this confidence and assurance, Fang Bai dared to mention Zu Hanjiao within the guest room with Xia Chenyu.

"It’s related to Zu Hanjiao? What exactly is it?"

Xia Chenyu became more eager to know, guessing it wasn’t anything good.

Fang Bai took a deep breath, before saying seriously, "If my guess is correct, then Zu Hanjiao was once a Foundation Establishment Expert."

A tremor ran through Xia Chenyu’s heart, her eyes widened suddenly, and her lips parted slightly, as if she’d heard something incredible.

"A Foundation Establishment Expert... How is that possible? Zu Hanjiao looks to be merely in her early thirties..."

After coming to her senses, Xia Chenyu murmured to herself, unable to believe it.

When Xia Chenyu was first introduced to the Martial Dao by Fang Bai, he had mentioned Foundation Establishment Experts, explaining that they were at a cultivation level above the Innate realm, a whole new starting point in a martial artist’s journey to a higher realm.

Successfully establishing a Foundation is equivalent to laying a solid foundation, which is crucial for what level a martial artist’s future path in the Martial Dao could achieve.

Even someone as seemingly omnipotent in Xia Chenyu’s eyes as Fang Bai was still far from achieving Foundation Establishment at this moment.

So, hearing that Zu Hanjiao had once been a Foundation Establishment Expert, Xia Chenyu was incredibly shocked.

According to Fang Bai, although Zu Hanjiao had fallen from the Foundation Establishment realm, she still couldn’t be countered by an Innate expert.

Yet Xia Chenyu was puzzled that if Zu Hanjiao had such strength, she could just directly make a move if she had any designs on Fang Bai, so why pretend to be weak to get close to him?

What exactly was her purpose in spending such effort? Xia Chenyu couldn’t figure it out, but Fang Bai vaguely guessed something, though he did not tell her to avoid making her worry.

"Chenyu, do you really think that woman is only in her early thirties? Let me tell you, her true age is over a hundred."

Fang Bai said to Xia Chenyu, "Foundation Establishment Experts have a lifespan of several hundred years. That woman probably succeeded in establishing her Foundation when she was over thirty, thus her appearance was maintained at that age. Only when her lifespan is about to run out will she rapidly age and appear decrepit."

Xia Chenyu clicked her tongue and said, "Being over a hundred and still looking so young... so that’s what eternal youth, an unaging face means? It’s really enviable!"

Fang Bai said disdainfully, "What’s impressive about that? If you cultivate with me, perhaps your lifespan in the future could be a thousand years or even ten thousand years!"

Xia Chenyu chuckled and said, "Who in the world can live up to a thousand or ten thousand years? Wouldn’t that make them immortal spirits?"

Fang Bai once again hugged Xia Chenyu’s waist, turning his head to give her a hard kiss on her pretty face, chuckling, "You already are an enchanting spirit of sorts who mesmerizes people to the point of death!"

"Then let me mesmerize you first!"

Xia Chenyu suddenly hooked her arms around Fang Bai’s neck, pressing her petal-like soft lips forcefully against Fang Bai’s lips.

After a long while, their lips parted, Xia Chenyu released her hands, her chest heaving slightly, breathing softly, her cheeks flushing with a blush, her beautiful eyes flowing with emotion, obviously somewhat moved.

"Truly fragrant..."

Fang Bai licked his lips, looking as if he hadn’t had enough.

"Then let’s continue!"

Xia Chenyu reached out again, wanting to hook Fang Bai’s neck.

From the previous passionate kiss, Xia Chenyu was certainly a bit moved, and Fang Bai felt his body heating up as well, knowing that if they kept getting intimate like this, it might lead to unintended consequences. So he hurriedly said, "Let’s talk about the serious business... where were we?"

Xia Chenyu pouted and said, "You were talking about how Zu Hanjiao was once a Foundation Establishment Expert. What’s next?"

Fang Bai nodded and said, "Although Zu Hanjiao is no longer a Foundation Establishment Expert, her strength is still far beyond mine. Even if the three of us teamed up, we wouldn’t be her match. Chenyu, you’re surely wondering, given Zu Hanjiao’s evident strength, why she would go through such a performance to get close to me, right?"

"Yeah, I just can’t figure out the reason."

Xia Chenyu frowned and said.
