Yunxiao and the others were eating these dishes for the first time. Although they had heard Sect Master Tongtian talk about them long ago, they could only truly feel the profound shock when they tasted them themselves!
How astonishing it was!
The group was extremely excited, their mouths trembling, but they still tried their best to suppress the urge to gobble down the food.
Knock, knock, knock~
A series of knocks came from the courtyard entrance.
"Excuse me, could we beg for some water to drink and a bowl of rice?"
At the same time, everyone heard a young girl's voice.
Zhang Yifan looked up and saw a little beggar, ragged, disheveled, and emaciated.
Sect Master Tongtian, the Jade Emperor, and the others saw her too.
Upon seeing the little beggar, Sect Master Tongtian, the Jade Emperor, and Queen Mother's expressions changed slightly. They exchanged glances, frowning.
Damn it, this place has been discovered! Someone's been followed!
And this person wasn't some little beggar at all; this was clearly Saintess Nuwa!
To get a bite to eat, a dignified Heavenly Dao Sage had thrown all shame aside!
"Come in. Hurry and come in," Zhang Yifan called out to Nuwa, the little beggar.
For decades, Zhang Yifan had helped countless people, never stingy with his alms.
"Thank you, thank you~" Nuwa rejoiced, thinking she had succeeded, and stepped into the courtyard.
As soon as she entered, Nuwa's body trembled, her movements faltered, and a colossal wave surged within her.
My cultivation? Where has my Sage cultivation gone! Why is it gone! How terrifying is the owner of this courtyard!
Nuwa's face changed drastically. If her face hadn't already been dirty and dark, even a three-year-old could have seen the change in her complexion.
Should I leave? Should I run?
Nuwa's mind was in turmoil, hesitant.
But such a monumental opportunity was right before her. Would it be too much of a pity to leave?!
Sect Master Tongtian, the Jade Emperor, and the others watched coldly, neither driving her away nor speaking.
No one who entered this house for the first time wasn't astonished.
The higher one's cultivation, the more shocked they were!
Seeing the little beggar stop, Zhang Yifan thought she was afraid of so many strangers and called out again, "Don't be scared, hurry and come in. We're just about to eat, I'll give you extra rice."
Hearing this, Nuwa gritted her teeth, hardened her heart, and walked over.
This bowl of rice, I'm eating it. What's more important than this opportunity? Besides, can they even eat me?
But as she entered the courtyard, Nuwa felt a sudden sense of unease!
What's going on?
Chapter 38: Nuwa the Great Niece? Yunxiao Steals the Show!
Nuwa, disguised as a little beggar, nervously walked into the courtyard.
Zhang Yifan, worried she was still scared, walked over, took her hand, and led her to the table.
"Go, move over a bit." Zhang Yifan nudged the Jade Emperor slightly to make space and soothed, "Little one, don't be afraid. Sit here. We are all kind people."
Nuwa secretly glanced at the Jade Emperor, who was looking displeased. Him, a good person? Would a good person use the Dog Head Guillotine on Taishang Laojun?
"Little Tongtong, go fetch a basin of water to wash the little one's hands." Seeing how dirty the little beggar was, Zhang Yifan asked Sect Master Tongtian to get water.
"Great-Grandpa, I'll get the water." At this moment, Yunxiao's heart stirred, and she volunteered, running off to fetch water.
Little Tongtong??? Great-Grandpa???
Nuwa was completely bewildered. What's going on? The dignified Heavenly Dao Sage is being called Little Tongtong? And Yunxiao, this arrogant creature, calls this person Great-Grandpa? Could this be the mysterious figure behind the Jade Emperor?
That super mysterious, invincible mighty being?
Suddenly, Nuwa saw the Kirin Ancestor, a large black dog leisurely gnawing on a lamb bone, and her heart trembled violently!
Kirin Ancestor?!!
Holy crap.
Didn't the Kirin Ancestor die? How did he appear here?
Hmm? His cultivation is actually so unfathomably profound, it seems to possess the power of a Sage!
Nuwa was greatly alarmed. Could it be that the one who dug off Sage Zhunti's head with a hoe last time was this Kirin Ancestor?
Very likely, very likely.
He might very well be the one!
This courtyard is too strange!
Yunxiao, this great-grandparent, is terrifyingly powerful!
Nuwa became more and more shocked the more she thought about it.
The Jade Emperor, Sect Master Tongtian, Queen Mother, and others continued chatting and laughing, leaving Nuwa to herself.
Since you're a little beggar, you're just a little beggar. We won't care if you're the noble Heavenly Dao Sage.
Just kidding, this courtyard is the most top-tier circle in the Primordial Era's Three Realms.
Can anyone just enter?
And can anyone be allowed to enter?
Impossible!
Absolutely impossible.
"Great-grandparent, I've brought the water."
A moment later, Yunxiao came over with a basin of water.
"Great-grandparent, let me wash her. I'm a girl, so she won't be as scared."
"Okay, okay, okay."
Yunxiao stopped Zhang Yifan, then smilingly pulled Nuwa over to wash her hands, and used a warm towel to wipe her face. She even used her fingers to comb Nuwa's messy hair.
Yunxiao's demeanor was very gentle and considerate.
Nuwa was very satisfied with Yunxiao's performance! Very good, she acted like a junior respecting her elder.
Zhang Yifan even nodded and praised Yunxiao, saying she was a thoughtful and considerate child, a good kid.
The Jade Emperor, Queen Mother, and Sect Master Tongtian only glanced over from time to time.
"Ahhh!"
Suddenly, Yunxiao screamed.
This sudden scream was so piercing it was grating.
It startled Nuwa greatly.
It even made Zhang Yifan, the Jade Emperor, Sect Master Tongtian, and the others turn their heads.
"What's wrong, Little Yunyun?" Zhang Yifan quickly ran over.
He saw Yunxiao with a face full of excitement, tears in her eyes, and her hands gripping Nuwa's shoulders tightly. "Little Lunlun! Little Lunlun! It's you, it's really you. Do you know how hard I've been looking for you!"
Huh?
Sect Master Tongtian, the Jade Emperor, Queen Mother, Yang Jian, Zhao Gongming, and the others were also stunned. What trick was this little girl playing?
"Little Yunyun, you know this little beggar?" Zhang Yifan asked in surprise.
"Great-grandparent, I know, I know," Yunxiao replied excitedly. "Little Lunlun is the daughter of my sworn sister, she's my grandniece. We got separated three years ago, I never expected to meet her here at Great-grandparent's place today."
"Your sworn sister's daughter?"
Zhang Yifan was stunned. How old are you, only twelve or thirteen?
This little beggar also looks about twelve or thirteen, and your sworn sister is a woman in her thirties or forties?
"Yes. Yes." Yunxiao nodded with a look of pure innocence, then hugged Nuwa tightly again. "Little Lunlun, I missed you so much. Ever since your mother left, I've been looking for you non-stop."
"You guys really like to swear brotherhood, huh."
Zhang Yifan looked at Yunxiao with a strange expression, then at the Jade Emperor and Sect Master Tongtian.
Didn't these two also have sworn brothers, and their sworn brothers had children?
The Primordial Continent really can't be viewed with common sense. It's popular to have relationships across age gaps.
