Chapter 415 - Daily Life in a Demon Sect (25) (2/2)

Bai Luo shared one of hers with her.

The red-clothed lady had a pretty straightforward character—since Bai Luo was nice to her, she treated the former as a sister. The woman told Bai Luo that she wanted to escape, and that she also wanted those people to pay.

The red-clothed lady planned for a long time. Finally, they found an opportunity. But what they hadn’t expected was for the other women to sell them out.

The two were locked up on their own, in a very small room, where the only exit was the door.

The red-clothed lady didn’t give up on escaping. After thinking for a long time, she decided to use the honey-trap.

Bai Luo was less certain. But faced with the question of life and death, she still decided to gamble with the red-clothed lady.

The latter was in charge of seducing the guards, while Bai Luo was to stand at the back and knock out any that came in.

But Bai Luo didn’t have much strength, so the two swapped roles in the end. Bai Luo was in charge of luring the guards in and the red-clothed lady would knock them unconscious.

Yet, could one really expect Bai Luo to know how to act seductive? In the end, the red-clothed lady could only tell her to stand there and perform a few poses.

Their plan proceeded very smoothly. But on the way out, they were found out and surrounded.

At the very last second, Shen Xinghai arrived to rescue the red-clothed lady. Though they managed to escape, they were constantly pursued.

In this short period of time, they had suffered a lot and went through life and death together.

Their pursuers had suddenly increased in number last night and they had been cornered in a broken-down temple. For the sake of breaking out, Shen Xinghai lured them away, while the red-clothed lady brought Bai Luo with her and ran.

Though they still managed to escape, the red-clothed lady had been injured.

Shen Xinghai had planned on entering the city to find medicine for her but hadn’t expected to run into Shi Sheng, leading to the situation now.

“Sect Master, I thought I would never see you again.” Bai Luo’s lips quivered as she spoke through sobs. She thought she was going to die.

Shi Sheng leaned against the window, her lips tugging up in a smile. Whether it was a reassuring one or a mocking one, Bai Luo didn’t know.

“Why would Liu Xu want to kidnap me…” This was the question that bothered Bai Luo the most.

As Shi Sheng listened to her various analyses, her brows twitched. ‘This kid is a real dummy.’

After a while, Shi Sheng faintly spoke, “Liu Xu just doesn’t want you returning to Fu Yiyun’s side is all.”

‘An evil villainess’ job is to break apart the leads.’

“But I’ve already lost my memories—I don’t remember who Fu Yiyun is. And Sect Master, didn’t you say they were a pair? Isn’t the one Fu Yiyun likes Liu Xu?” The dummy asked even more questions.

Was Shi Sheng to tell her that the job of an evil villainess was to constantly cause trouble with the goal of splitting the male and female leads apart?

But she wouldn’t be able to explain all that with a few words, so Shi Sheng decided to just shut up and let the little dummy ponder over it on her own.

Perhaps feeling very safe at Shi Sheng’s side, Bai Luo caved in to the fatigue from her wounds and fell asleep.

Shi Sheng pushed aside the curtains. Jiang Zhan’s horse was beside the carriage—he had come back to follow it after running off.

Seeing Shi Sheng looking out from the carriage, he immediately rode his horse forward and asked with a stern expression, “Wu Zheng, how can you just randomly pick people up?”

“I didn’t; they were given to me.” Shi Sheng corrected him.

Jiang Zhan got angry. “Are you really treating the Demon Sect as yours?!”

“Is it not mine?”

“Without—” Jiang Zhan halted abruptly. He clenched his teeth and glared at Shi Sheng. ‘If it wasn’t for me, do you think you could be Sect Master?! I’m snatching it back later! Let’s see how you’ll act cocky then!’
