The first time Yunxiao and the others had eaten this food, they had already heard Sect Master Tongtian talk about it, but only after tasting it themselves could they truly experience that genuine shock!

It was utterly astonishing!

The group was incredibly excited. Their mouths trembled with excitement, yet they did their best to suppress the urge to wolf down the food.

Knock, knock, knock~

A series of knocks came from the courtyard gate.

"Excuse me, may I beg for some water and a bowl of rice?"

At the same time, everyone heard the tender voice of a young girl.

Zhang Yifan looked up and saw a little beggar in ragged clothes, with disheveled hair, a dirty face, and a sallow, emaciated appearance.

Sect Master Tongtian, the Jade Emperor, and the others saw her as well.

When they saw the little beggar, Sect Master Tongtian, the Jade Emperor, Queen Mother, and the others all changed expressions slightly. They exchanged glances and frowned.

Damn it, this place had actually been discovered!

Someone had been followed!

And this person was no little beggar at all. She was clearly Saint Nuwa!

A dignified Heavenly Dao Saint had actually thrown away all her dignity just to come in and eat a meal!

"Come in. Hurry and come in." Zhang Yifan called the little beggar Nuwa inside.

Over the past few decades, Zhang Yifan had no idea how many people he had helped. He had never been stingy about giving alms.

"Thank you, thank you~" Nuwa was delighted. It worked. She stepped into the courtyard.

The moment she entered the courtyard, Nuwa's body shook and her figure froze. A storm surged within her heart.

Where was her cultivation?

Where was her Saint cultivation?!

Why was it gone?!

How could the master of this courtyard be so terrifying?!

Nuwa's expression changed drastically. If her face had not already been filthy and blackened, even a three-year-old child could have seen the change in her complexion.

Should she leave?

Should she run away?

Nuwa's thoughts wavered, and she hesitated.

But the heaven-defying opportunity was right before her eyes. Wouldn't it be a pity to leave?!

Sect Master Tongtian, the Jade Emperor, and the others merely watched her coldly. They neither drove her away nor said anything.

There was no one who entered this house for the first time who did not end up horrified.

The higher one's cultivation, the more shocked one became!

Seeing the little beggar stop, Zhang Yifan assumed she was afraid of all the strangers, so he called out again, "Don't be afraid. Come in. We're just eating. I'll serve you some extra rice."

Hearing this, Nuwa secretly gritted her teeth. Steeling her heart, she walked over.

I'm eating this bowl of rice no matter what.

What does dignity matter? Could it be more important than this opportunity?

Besides, can they really eat me?

But the moment she entered the courtyard, an ominous sense of panic surged through Nuwa's heart!

What was going on?

Chapter 38: Niece Nuwa? Yunxiao Scores Big!

Nuwa, disguised as a little beggar, nervously made her way into the courtyard.

Worried that she was still afraid, Zhang Yifan walked over, took her hand, and led her to the table.

"Go, move over a little." Zhang Yifan nudged the Jade Emperor aside to make room and comforted her, "Little friend, don't be afraid. Sit here. We're all kind, good people."

Nuwa secretly glanced at the Jade Emperor. He was secretly displeased. He's a good person? Would a good person use the Dog Head Guillotine to behead Lao Jun?

"Little Tongtong, go fetch a basin of water and let our little friend wash her hands." Seeing how dirty the little beggar was, Zhang Yifan sent Sect Master Tongtian to fetch water.

"Great-grandpa, I'll fetch the water." At that moment, Yunxiao's thoughts stirred. She volunteered for the task and ran off to get the water.

Little Tongtong???

Great-grandpa???

Nuwa was completely baffled. What was going on?

A dignified Heavenly Dao Saint was actually being called Little Tongtong?

And someone as proud as Yunxiao was actually calling this person Great-grandpa?

Could this be the mysterious person behind the Jade Emperor?

That incredibly mysterious, invincible supreme expert?

Suddenly, Nuwa saw the Kirin Ancestor, Big Black Dog, leisurely gnawing on a lamb bone. Her heart shook violently!

The Kirin Ancestor?!!

My goodness.

Wasn't the Kirin Ancestor dead? Why was he here?

Huh? His cultivation was actually unfathomably profound. He seemed to possess the power of the Saint realm!

Nuwa was horrified. Could it be that this Kirin Ancestor was the one who had dug out Sage Zhunti's head with a single hoe last time?

Very likely. Very likely indeed.

It might really have been him!

This courtyard was far too strange!

Yunxiao's Great-grandpa was terrifying beyond belief!

The more Nuwa thought about it, the more shocked she became.

The Jade Emperor, Sect Master Tongtian, Queen Mother, and the others continued chatting and laughing, leaving Nuwa sitting off to the side.

Since you were a little beggar, then you were simply a little beggar. No one would care whether you possessed the exalted identity of a Heavenly Dao Saint.

What a joke. This courtyard was the highest-level circle in the Primordial Three Realms.

Did just anyone get to enter?

Could just anyone be permitted to enter?

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible.

"Great-grandpa, I've brought the water."

Before long, Yunxiao arrived carrying a basin of water.

"Great-grandpa, I'll wash her for you. I'm a girl, so she won't be as afraid."

"Good, good, good."

Yunxiao stopped Zhang Yifan, then cheerfully pulled Nuwa over to wash her hands. She used a warm towel to wipe Nuwa's face and even used her fingers to comb through her messy hair.

Yunxiao looked so gentle and considerate.

Nuwa was very pleased with Yunxiao's performance! Very good. She truly looked like a junior showing filial respect toward her elder.

Zhang Yifan nodded and praised Yunxiao as well. This child was attentive, considerate, and truly a good child.

The Jade Emperor, Queen Mother, and Sect Master Tongtian only glanced over from time to time.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

Suddenly, Yunxiao let out a scream.

The sudden shriek was so piercing that it hurt the ears.

It startled Nuwa badly.

Zhang Yifan, the Jade Emperor, Sect Master Tongtian, and the others all turned to look.

"What's wrong, Little Yunyun?" Zhang Yifan hurried over.

Yunxiao's face was filled with excitement, tears glistening in her eyes. She grabbed Nuwa by the shoulders with both hands. "Little Luanluan! Little Luanluan! It's really you, it's really you! Do you know how hard I've searched for you?!"

What?

Sect Master Tongtian, the Jade Emperor, Queen Mother, Yang Jian, Zhao Gongming, and the others were also stunned. What kind of act was this girl putting on?

"Little Yunyun, you know this little beggar?" Zhang Yifan asked in surprise.

"Great-grandpa, I know her, I know her." Yunxiao answered excitedly, "Little Luanluan is the daughter of my sworn sister. She's my great-niece. We lost touch three years ago, and I never expected to meet her here at Great-grandpa's place today."

"The daughter of your sworn sister?"

Zhang Yifan was stunned. How old are you, anyway? You look only twelve or thirteen.

This little beggar also looked about twelve or thirteen. Was her sworn sister a thirty- or forty-year-old woman?

"Yes, yes." Yunxiao nodded with an innocent look, then hugged Nuwa tightly again. "Little Luanluan, I missed you so much. After your mother left, I kept searching and searching for you."

"Is swearing brotherhood really that popular among you?"

Zhang Yifan gave Yunxiao a strange look, then glanced at the Jade Emperor and Sect Master Tongtian.

Those two fellows had sworn brothers as well, and their sworn brothers had sons and daughters too.

The Primordial Continent truly couldn't be viewed according to common sense. It was popular for people of all ages to form sworn relationships.
