Divine Emperor Demon Emperor

Leaving Yunlu Tower, they walked along the main street. The sky had already turned completely dark, but Yunlu County City was still bustling. Lanterns on both sides of the street were lit, casting a beautiful glow over the entire city.

"Go, investigate this Lin Shan for me. I want to know everything about him." Watching Lin Yun’s group of three gradually disappear, Tang Wushuang said to the guard beside him.

"Yes, this subordinate will see to it at once." Upon hearing the order, the guard acknowledged it, and his figure strangely vanished into the darkness.

Lu Bingning had insisted on leaving with him, no matter what. Not only that, but she had been watching him closely the entire way. Lin Yun was terrified that his identity would be exposed.

"I say, Miss Lu, just what are you trying to do, following us this whole time?" Lin Yun looked at Lu Bingning and asked, feigning a fierce tone.

But who would have thought that faced with his ferocity, Lu Bingning wasn’t the least bit scared? Her eyes sparkled with a bright light, as if she had already seen through the truth.

"I’m not following you. I’m also heading this way," Lu Bingning replied.

Lin Yun was at a complete loss with Lu Bingning. ’This girl’s head is full of mischievous ideas. One wrong move and I’ll expose myself. It’s better to keep some distance,’ Lin Yun thought to himself.

He deliberately tried to keep his distance, but he couldn’t tell if Lu Bingning was doing it on purpose or not. She constantly stuck to his side, asking all sorts of strange questions.

"Your name is Lin Shan?"

"Yes."

"So your surname is also Lin. Have you heard of General Lin Xiaotian? I didn’t realize you two shared the same family name." Lu Bingning chatted casually, but Lin Yun knew this little girl was trying to bait him for information.

"Of course I’ve heard of General Lin Xiaotian. He’s one of the three Grand Generals of Yanhuang Country, with a status comparable to the Princes of four counties. And I also happen to know that Miss Lu’s sweetheart seems to be none other than General Lin Xiaotian’s only son, Young Master Lin Yun."

Hearing Lin Yun’s words, Lu Bingning’s face instantly flushed red. Although she was full of clever schemes, she was still a young maiden who hadn’t seen much of the world. It was inevitable that she would feel embarrassed by such a comment.

Seeing Lu Bingning’s bashful expression, Lin Yun laughed internally. ’Little brat, how dare you try to trick me.’

They chatted as they walked. Lu Bingning constantly probed indirectly, while Lin Yun would occasionally blurt out some crude language, making Lu Bingning’s face turn red. Amidst this conversation where each had their own ulterior motives, Lin Yun arrived at his inn and they parted ways.

"That little girl... I really can’t let my guard down around her." Back in his room, Lin Yun still felt a lingering fear. If he hadn’t been on guard and deliberately spouted some vulgarities, he figured Lu Bingning wouldn’t have left so easily.

Meanwhile, in another inn, Lu Bingning sat in her room, deep in thought. The feeling Lin Shan gave her was very familiar. At first, she thought it was her imagination, but after interacting with him, she was certain it wasn’t.

Although Lin Shan’s aura was completely different from Lin Yun’s, Lu Bingning’s intuition told her that Lin Shan was Lin Yun.

"I will definitely unearth your true identity." With a confident smile, Lu Bingning had made up her mind to go up against Lin Yun.

The night passed silently. Early the next morning, Lin Yun sent Qin Feng out to take Little Ape for a meal. Every day when he took Little Ape to eat, Lin Yun had to face numerous astonished stares. He wasn’t in the mood for it today, so he simply handed this glorious and arduous task over to Qin Feng.

At first, Qin Feng naturally refused, but after two kicks to the butt from Lin Yun, he finally left the room with Little Ape, albeit very reluctantly.

"Stinking Lin Shan, damn Lin Shan, this is so embarrassing! And it cost me two hundred Primordial Stones again, really..." An hour later, Qin Feng walked out of the restaurant, cursing nonstop. The way everyone had stared at them as if they were monsters had made even his face flush red with extreme embarrassment.

Cursing Lin Yun as he walked, Qin Feng had barely taken two steps before he was stopped by a graceful figure.

"Miss Lu." Seeing that it was Lu Bingning who had stopped him, Qin Feng’s face turned slightly red as he called out to her. Lu Bingning was an absolute beauty; there was no doubt about that.

Facing Lu Bingning, Qin Feng appeared very nervous, and his whole demeanor became awkward and fidgety.

"ROAR! ROAR! ROAR..." Little Ape was a Demon Beast and was not captivated by Lu Bingning’s beauty. Looking at Qin Feng’s disgraceful appearance, Little Ape let out two roars, then transformed into a streak of light and left directly.

Little Ape’s meaning was obvious: it was too embarrassing to be with Qin Feng, so it chose to go back and find Lin Yun.

"That damn beast, it actually thinks I’m embarrassing." Watching the direction Little Ape disappeared, Qin Feng cursed under his breath.

Lu Bingning, standing to the side, was also curious about Little Ape. The little guy’s speed was simply too fast; it had vanished in the blink of an eye. She asked Qin Feng curiously, "Young Master Qin, was that Little Demon Beast just now your pet?"

"No, it’s Lin Shan’s. Its name is Little Ape," Qin Feng replied.

Seeing Qin Feng’s nervous yet excited expression, a plan formed in Lu Bingning’s mind. ’If I want to tear off Lin Shan’s mask, it seems the breakthrough will be Qin Feng.’

With her plan in mind, Lu Bingning smiled faintly, a smile full of charm. "Young Master Qin, actually, I’ve had a few questions I’ve been wanting to ask you."

At this moment, Lu Bingning looked exceptionally alluring. If Lu Tao were here, he would surely be astonished that his cold and noble sister had such a side to her.

In just a short quarter-hour, Lu Bingning left, satisfied, a confident smile on her face. Qin Feng, however, remained standing there dumbfounded. Lu Bingning had asked him more than ten questions about Lin Shan, and he had spilled everything without a second thought.

Faced with Lu Bingning’s beauty, Qin Feng had no resistance whatsoever.

’Hmph, from Mysterious City, named Lin Shan, suddenly appeared in a small town, and he even knows Tiger Roar Fist. Lin Yun, did you think I, Lu Bingning, couldn’t figure you out? You even tried to hide it from me.’ Sneering inwardly, Lu Bingning was now certain that Lin Shan was Lin Yun.

According to what Qin Feng said, Lin Shan had suddenly appeared in the small town. When she asked Qin Feng what Martial Skills Lin Shan knew, Qin Feng told her that Lin Shan knew a Fist Technique that was accompanied by the sound of a tiger’s roar.

Hearing this, Lu Bingning was already eighty percent sure.

She didn’t rush to find Lin Yun. Lu Bingning already had a plan. Lin Yun’s appearance had made her very happy, and she was thinking of ways to tease him a little. It was his own fault for hiding things even from her.

"Lin Yun, you want to play a game? This young lady will play with you." Laughing happily, Lu Bingning returned cheerfully to the inn where she was staying.

"ACHOO..." Back in his inn, Lin Yun suddenly sneezed for no reason and wondered, ’Who’s cursing my name?’

Just then, Little Ape returned to the room alone. Not seeing Qin Feng, Lin Yun asked Little Ape where he was. When he learned that Qin Feng had been stopped by Lu Bingning, Lin Yun’s brows furrowed slightly.

’Qin Feng, oh, Qin Feng, you better not have fallen into that little girl’s hands. If you get your bro’s identity exposed, I’ll kick you to death,’ Lin Yun prayed. However, it was already too late. He had no idea that Qin Feng had already sold him out completely.
