Chapter 908: Chapter 908: Emerging Out of Nowhere, The New Generation Mystic Master

Qin Ruan sat in the hall, her eyes sizing up the approaching woman, whose distinctive Sea City facial features became clearer.

Her cheeks were sunken, her head and chin rather pointed, and her height fell somewhere between the northern and southern averages.

The girl was quite delicate in appearance, and the bright spark in her eyes gave off an aggressive impression.

With just one look, Qin Ruan could tell that this was a bold and shrewd woman, whose pride emanated from her very bones.

However, what interested Qin Ruan more was the dark aura diffusing from the woman, which was not an evil spirit but an aura that existed just like Spiritual Power.

Huo Zhi led the person to Qin Ruan and bowed respectfully in front of her.

"Madam, I have brought the person."

Qin Ruan nodded slightly, stood up with one hand in her pocket, and extended her hand to the woman beside Huo Zhi, "Hello, I’m Qin Ruan."

She did not behave like those from the Aristocratic Families who had visited the Huo Family days before but took the initiative to step forward and provided a brief and straightforward self-introduction.

It was only because she knew the woman’s identity, Longevity Sect—Wu Fan.

Recalling Huo Zhi’s investigative report, a teasing light flashed in Qin Ruan’s eyes; she liked the other’s techniques and was quite fond of her.

Upon hearing Qin Ruan introduce herself, Wu Fan’s pretty face showed a moment of astonishment.

She reached out and shook hands with Qin Ruan, unsurely saying, "Your name is Qin Ruan?"

Qin Ruan smiled and nodded, "Yes."

Wu Fan’s eyes sparkled as she smiled and asked, "The new generation Mystic Master who suddenly emerged in the Capital City?"

Qin Ruan slightly raised her eyebrows, smiling modestly, "I’m just earning a living, not as miraculous as the rumors suggest."

She was acknowledging her identity.

As Wu Fan was about to release the handshake, she gripped harder upon hearing this, her pretty face becoming lively as she introduced herself, "Longevity Sect, Wu Fan."

Qin Ruan’s smile also became more genuine, her beautiful eyes curving into crescents, "Before I met you, I felt your identity was suspect, and now seeing you in person I’m certain we are in the same line of work, but I never imagined that we are actually old acquaintances."

Indeed, they were acquaintances, as they had been in the same WeChat group and interacted for nearly a year.

Though they had never met face-to-face, there was some friendship between them.

Qin Ruan utterly refrained from mentioning that she had investigated Wu Fan’s identity beforehand.

Huo Qi, standing behind Wu Fan, showed a surprised expression, his eyes shifting back and forth between Qin Ruan and his girlfriend.

"You know each other?"

Wu Fan released Qin Ruan’s hand and affectionately told Huo Qi, "We’ve never met, but I know of Madam Huo’s great reputation."

Huo Qi held her hand, his lips curving upward, "What Madam Huo? Call me sister-in-law."

Wu Fan gave him a glare and elbowed him lightly, "What are you talking about!"

They had been dating for years but had not yet progressed to marriage; such familiarity was unseemly.

Furthermore, considering the Huo Family’s status in the Capital City, even if she were prideful and outstanding, she had to bow before this centuries-old prestigious family.

Huo Qi’s eyebrows furrowed as he childishly said, "Fanfan, you did promise me that we’d find time to get married next year."

The shrewdness in Wu Fan’s eyes receded in front of her boyfriend, leaving only the gentle demeanor of a modest woman.

She pinched Huo Qi’s hand, whispering, "Let’s talk about that later, let’s discuss your issue first."

Now that her identity was uncovered in front of her boyfriend, Wu Fan felt there was no need to hide it anymore; the matters regarding the Huo Family’s branch in Sea City needed to be resolved sooner to prevent future consequences.

Qin Ruan cleared her throat and interrupted their affectionate exchange, "Why don’t we sit down and talk?"

If they continued standing, her back was going to give out.

At this moment, no one knew that her legs were trembling.

"Sister-in-law is right." Huo Qi, holding his girlfriend’s hand, sat across from Qin Ruan.

Their fingers intertwined, they looked less like a couple who had dated for seven years and more like teenagers in the throes of a passionate romance.

Qin Ruan had just sat down when Huo Zhi brought over a bowl of medicinal herbal soup.

"Madam, this is the herbal soup that the third master instructed the kitchen to stew for you before he left, to replenish your vitality and blood."

Replenish vitality and blood?

Excessive marital activities could lead to a deficiency of vitality and blood, should she be grateful for the third master’s thoughtfulness?

Qin Ruan said to Huo Zhi with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes, "I have no appetite, I don’t want to drink it, pour it away."

Huo Zhi’s expression changed slightly, "Madam?"

"Pour it away, thank you," Qin Ruan said in a distant yet polite tone.

If she drank this medicinal herbal soup today, wouldn’t she be forever kneeling, never able to stand up again?

She would not give Huo Yunjiao another chance to bully her.

Of course, the anger she had been suppressing since early morning also made it difficult for her to drink it.

She was just waiting for the third master to return to confront him.

At this critical moment, she didn’t mind using force.

Huo Zhi felt a chill as Qin Ruan’s cold gaze swept over her.

Sensing the fury emanating from Qin Ruan, she left with the medicinal herbal soup in hand.

Wu Fan’s sharp eyes scanned Qin Ruan, her gaze locking onto the ambiguous marks on her collarbone, which looked as vivid as plum blossoms

In a teasing tone, she blurted out, "It seems your nightlife has been quite vibrant recently, Fellow Qin."

The derision in her words was quite thick, showing no restraint.

Qin Ruan casually leaned on the sofa, her voice lazy, "Don’t worry, sooner or later, you will go through this too."

Her gaze shifted slightly, her eyes releasing an endlessly enticing charm as she looked ambiguously at Huo Qi and Wu Fan.

Wu Fan laughed and shook her head, "You really don’t let anyone take advantage, do you?"

Qin Ruan’s eyes flashed with mockery, "How could I compare to you, you’ve been dating our Huo Qi for seven years, keeping your wizard identity tightly hidden, not letting him discover it at all.

Huo Qi, tell me, are you too careless about your girlfriend, or do you trust her too much?"

Huo Qi’s serene expression remained stable, showing no displeasure at Wu Fan’s concealment of her identity.

He said earnestly, "Fanfan is a decisive person, I never interfere with her personal life, as long as she has me in her heart and is gentle and obedient when with me, it’s enough."

Qin Ruan’s gaze flickered, her eyes incredulously fixed on Huo Qi.

This one’s really a hopeless romantic!

Wu Fan also raised her eyebrows, squinting at Huo Qi, she asked, "You must have noticed long ago, right?"

Huo Qi pursed his lips and smiled, not responding.

It seemed he had, the two of them had been together for seven years, how could Huo Qi not notice anything unusual about his lover?

Realization dawned in Wu Fan’s eyes, and she tightened her grip on Huo Qi’s hand.

She tilted her head and asked Qin Ruan, "You said you suspected my identity even before you saw me, how did you realize it?"

Qin Ruan supported her head with one hand, her demeanor indifferent, her red lips parting, "Huo Chengying."

She knew about Wu Fan from what Huo Chengying and Huo Qi had told her, her excessive concern for Huo Chengying and her very bizarre actions.

According to Huo Chengying, the first time Wu Fan met him, she slapped him, later chased him with a brick and splashed his dog’s blood on him, even throwing him into a pond.

The incidents that occurred were filled with inexplicable weirdness.

Wu Fan would hit Huo Chengying whenever she saw him, but it would never draw blood.

If it was really just a clash of personalities, it shouldn’t have gotten to this point. What caught Qin Ruan’s attention was the spilling of dog’s blood.
