After those from the Divine Court and the Dark Parliament left, there were only Xi Youmi and Qin Haodong standing in front of the cave.

Qin Haodong said to her with a smile, “It must be hard for you, a Saint master, to pretend to be a weak girl for such a long time.”

Xi Youmi looked completely different from before. Although she was still beguilingly charming, she was obviously a higher-up.

“I thought my disguise was perfect,” she asked. “How did you find out?”

“Do you really want to know?”

Qin Haodong said with a smile.

Although she must have ulterior motives, she took the bullet for him at first, and then she risked her life to save him, so Qin did not hate her. On the contrary, he was quite curious about this woman.

Xi Youmi smiled, “Of course, I want to know where the problem was.”

Qin Haodong said, “It’s said that women have their sixth sense, but actually that’s also true for men. I always felt uneasy when I was around you.”

“At first, I thought you were an Alien Demon in disguise. But now it seems that I was wrong, which made me even more curious. Who exactly are you?”

“You’re obviously a great master. So why did you stay with me even at the cost of sacrificing your body? What do you want?”

Xi Youmi did not answer his question directly. She continued, “Your answer is too far-fetched. I don’t think it’s convincing.”

Qin Haodong said, “Yes, it’s not direct evidence. I started to doubt you after the bar assassination.”

“I have to admit that your disguise was almost perfect, but when I treated you, I found that the bullet should have pierced through your heart, but it did not.”

“As a master, you can adjust your muscle tissue to change the course of the bullet. That’s why you were not seriously injured.”

“Common people might not have noticed this detail, but I’m a doctor!”

Xi Youmi said, “No wonder you’re known as the Medical Sage. I really didn’t expect you to find such a small flaw.”

Qin Haodong said, “I’ve told you everything I know. Now it’s your turn. Tell me who you are and why you are here.”

Xi Youmi blinked and said with a joking smile, “You can have a guess. Actually, we met once before.”

Qin Haodong frowned, “This is too difficult. I don’t have any clues.”

Xi Youmi said, “Really? Have you seen many masters at the Saint Realm? Besides, I’m a woman. That might help you narrow it down.”

This reminded Qin Haodong. He thought of all the masters of the Saint Realm he knew but found that the only female seemed to be Xuanyuan Lige.

But suddenly, he thought of something and said in horror, “You are Yao Li, leader of the Devil Gate!”

Xi Youmi giggled, “You finally figured it out. It seems that you are not too stupid.”

“But…”

Although he guessed right, Qin Haodong still couldn’t believe his eyes.

The last time he met Yao Li, the leader of the Devil Gate, in Shanghai, she was an old woman who was over 60 years old. Why was she a sexy and enchanting beauty right now?

Such a huge contrast made it impossible to figure out who Xi Youmi really was.

“It’s weird, isn’t it?” Xi Youmi said, “Our Devil Gate has existed for thousands of years and we must have some unique skills, such as the Disguise Skill or some secret skills to hide our real cultivation.

“Ten years ago, my master, the former Sect leader, passed away. In a place like our Devil Gate where the strong prey on the weak, I was not old enough to convince those old devils. So my master asked me to take on her guise before she died.

“That’s why I was an old woman the first time we met in Shanghai.”

Qin Haodong came to his senses and asked, “Is this what you really look like?”

Xi Youmi shot him a glance. “Of course.”

Qin Haodong asked, “Why did you pretend to be a fashion designer?”

“What disguise? That sounds awful. I did not change my appearance nor my profession. I’m really a top fashion designer.”

Xi Youmi said, “As the saying goes, while the ‘lesser hermit’ lives in seclusion in the country, the ‘greater hermit’ does so in the city. The Xuanyuan Pavilion has been looking for me all these years, but they didn’t know that I was right under their noses.”

Qin Haodong asked, “Then why did you approach me? Did you stage the incident?”

Xi Youmi said, “Yes, I knew that you would take that road, so I asked two disciples to take on the role of hooligans and gave you a chance to save me.”

“The encounter on the plane was the same. I found out which flight you were on, and then I paid someone else to get a seat next to you.”

“Why do I want to get close to you? Because what you said about the Alien Demons is too bizarre. We’ve never heard of this race for thousands of years. But where did you get so much information?”

“So I wanted to get closer to you to find out if this was a plot hatched by you and Xuanyuan Lige.”

Qin Haodong said playfully, “Is that the only reason you spent so much time approaching me or even trying to seduce me. It doesn’t seem worth it.”

“Seducing you? Have I?”

Xi Youmi seemed to have turned back into the sexy and charming fashion designer.

“Yeah, you must have done it.”

“Since you knew I was seducing you, why didn’t you take the bait? Am I not beautiful enough to attract you?”

Qin Haodong was rendered speechless. It seemed that no matter who she was, no matter how high her cultivation was, a girl’s way of thinking was always different from a man’s. Why was her focus so strange?

Seeing that he didn’t respond, she glared at him and said discontentedly, “To tell you the truth, I had another purpose to get close to you.

“I found that there were more Saint-level masters around you, and many young talents also showed up in Cihang Sword House. More than half of the elders and the Sect leaders had reached the Saint Realm. That’s a huge threat to us.”

“So I thought you must have a special way to help people improve their cultivation, so I got close to you on purpose to find this secret.”

“Though I didn’t get your secret method, I reached the middle stage of the Saint Realm from the early stage. That was why I left after the Fashion Week: I needed to find a place to break through.”

When he heard what she said, Qin Haodong suddenly understood everything. All that was fairly rational.

The Devil Gate had been fighting against Cihang Sword House for many years and of course, they would notice their changes.

Masters working for Xuanyuan Lige reached the Saint Realm one after another while the Devil Gate went no further. No wonder the Sect leader became anxious.

Qin Haodong said, “There is indeed no secret method for the elders of Cihang Sword House to improve, but I’ve given them some pills. I can also give you some to help the elders of the Devil Gate.”

Then he gave some Saint Pills and other elixirs to Xi Youmi and explained to her how to use them.

Xi Youmi took all the pills and asked in surprise, “Why are you so generous to us? We are enemies of Cihang Sword House. Aren’t you afraid that we will become your enemies after taking the pills?”

Qin Haodong said, “That’s not what I care about right now. Our top priority is to deal with the invasion of the Alien Demons.”

“If they really open the space channel, the whole earth will be ruined, and the Devil Gate or Cihang Sword House will definitely be destroyed.”

“That’s true, but I really admire your generosity.”

Xi Youmi put away the pills and asked, “But I found out that all your women suddenly changed from ordinary people to ninth-level grandmasters. Do you have any other secret methods that I don’t know of?”

“Well…”

Qin Haodong explained, “That’s different. We practiced the pair cultivation together, and this is of no use to you.”

Xi Youmi said with a charming smile, “I don’t think so. I’m also a woman, aren’t I?”

“Well…” Qin Haodong said, “My pair cultivation only works for those under the Sage Realm. It’s of little use when you’re already a Saint.”

“But I always feel that you’re lying to me. Why don’t we have a try?” Xi Youmi asked.

Qin Haodong was rendered speechless again. He really couldn’t figure out what this girl was thinking.

“Well… I have to go now!”

He was about to leave, but Xi Youmi stopped him, “Wait a minute, I have one last question.”

Qin Haodong looked at her and she said with a charming smile, “We’ve been together for such a long time. Have you ever liked me? Even for a moment?”

Looking at her expectant glances, Qin Haodong said uneasily, “You are the leader of the Devil Gate, but I’m just a doctor. We are not destined to be together. Why bother about those things?”

Then he rose into the air and flew away.

Looking in the direction where he left, Xi Youmi smiled and murmured, “Why can’t the leader of the Devil Gate be with a doctor? Is there a rule in the law?”

On the flying sword, Qin Haodong soon returned to the little valley in the suburbs of the Sun-never-set Empire. He landed and found that Ma Wenzhuo had been waiting there with other members of the Daddy Security Company.

Ma Wenzhuo stepped forward and asked, “Boss, where have you been? Why didn’t you take us with you?”

“I went to Crow Canyon and many things happened…”

Qin Haodong told them everything about searching for the treasure. Everyone turned serious the moment they heard that the Alien Demons had shown up in public.

Qin Haodong said, “Although there are not many of them, they’re obviously strong and aggressive. All the alien demon generals have reached the late stage of the Saint Realm, so you have to hurry and improve your cultivation.”

Then he took out the three Holy Light Cross Swords and the six Sacred Six-lights Stars that he brought with him from the Divine Court.

“Who wants to be the Paladins and the Pontifex Maximus of the Divine Court? You’ll be Saints the moment you get the inheritance.”

With Chen Fugui and Zhang Feiyang’s examples, they were quite familiar with the inheritance. They knew that it was the best way to improve their cultivation, so nine men immediately stood out.

“Boss, we want to be.”

After taking the Purifying Pills, they became pure and then received the approval of the Sacred Six-lights Stars and the Holy Light Cross Swords.

An hour later, there were three Paladins and six Pontifex Maximus in the valley.

The day broke. Qin Haodong didn’t let them go back to rest but took them directly to the headquarters of the Divine Court in Australia, the Holy City.

Back at the Holy City, since she had already received the approval of the Crown of God, Kathryn soon stabilized the Holy City with the help of Chen Fugui and Zhang Feiyang.

When she heard that Qin Haodong had come over, Kathryn immediately came out to welcome him.
