Beast, Oh Beast!!!

As soon as Zhou Qing opened his eyes, he saw Lu Yaoyao, who was being doted on by everyone, happily greeting the two of them.

Li Daoxuan and He Han followed closely behind. Originally, both of them had happy expressions, but upon seeing Zhou Qing, their faces instantly turned stern.

Seeing the remark [Leech-like pervert] above Li Daoxuan's head, which hadn't changed at all, Zhou Qing didn't bother to greet him.

He simply continued to pretend to be asleep.

In contrast, Yan Xiaohu was full of enthusiasm: "Junior Sister Lu, you've also come to the trade fair! Come, come, come, I have a few good items here. Pick whichever one you like, absolutely half price."

Li Daoxuan glanced at the junk on the stall and couldn't help but say, "Cough, cough, cough, this isn't how you rip off acquaintances. Junior Sister, let's go browse over there."

Lu Yaoyao, however, looked up at Zhou Qing, her mind wildly imagining a shocking and unconventional drama.

She wondered how the young grass Zhou Qing from the Taiqing Sect and the old cow Profound Abyss Immortal from the Azure Feather Immortal Sect would spark a connection.

She was really looking forward to it!

If it really is her, I must keep a close eye on them! Lu Yaoyao muttered to herself.

Then she left.

Yan Xiaohu felt a pang of regret. He casually picked up a bronze mirror from the stall and looked at himself.

"She doesn't even like a handsome single-eyelid guy like me. Why did she take a liking to Fourth Child? And Fourth Child is so indifferent to her. Is this the legendary tactic of playing hard to get?"

Yan Xiaohu mumbled to himself, then looked suspiciously at Zhou Qing, who was pretending to sleep.

"Get up, she's already gone!" Yan Xiaohu called out.

Only then did Zhou Qing slowly open his eyes, sit up, and stretch with a big yawn.

"Comfortable!"

Yan Xiaohu leaned over and asked with a curious expression, "I just don't understand, what exactly about you did that girl like?"

Zhou Qing suddenly slapped his thigh: "I want to know too! I want to change, but I don't even know where to start."

The two exchanged glances, and finally, both let out a sigh.

This was truly a case of some dying of thirst while others drowned!

In the evening, after Yan Xiaohu packed up his stall, the two of them had a delicious meal and then flew back to the mountain gate on their swords.

That night, Zhou Qing heated a large tub of hot water and, while he was at it, threw in the crushed bones of the Crimson Flame Dragon Lion.

Then he slowly stepped into the steaming bath, calmed his mind, and began to circulate the cultivation mantra of the Silver Dragon Hand.

I wonder if what Second Uncle said is true! Zhou Qing was still a bit skeptical.

There was no doubt about the bones, but he wasn't sure if this method was correct.

As time passed little by little, the bones at the bottom of the tub actually began to bubble with a reddish liquid, and a synchronized sensation was generated with the circulation of the Silver Dragon Hand's meridians.

"It works!"

Seeing this, Zhou Qing's face lit up with joy, and he sped up the circulation of his energy.

Soon, the reddish liquid began to enter through Zhou Qing's palms. Zhou Qing could clearly feel a scorching warm current spreading rapidly throughout his body like a tide, intermingling and resonating with the spiritual energy of the Silver Dragon Hand technique.

A moment later, a faint silver light gradually appeared on his hands.

"This is too fast!"

Seeing this scene, Zhou Qing was shocked and dared not be distracted anymore, beginning to fully immerse himself in this wonderful feeling.

It wasn't until the sky was completely bright that he reluctantly got up.

With a thought, his hands were instantly covered with a layer of light silver, and upon closer inspection, one could even see tiny dragon scales.

"This bone should be usable for another two days. By then, this Silver Dragon Hand will be considered entry-level!" Zhou Qing was overjoyed.

Although this Second Uncle was sometimes quite a cheat, his cultivation talent and unique understanding of cultivation techniques and divine abilities were indeed far beyond his own.

Otherwise, how could he have infiltrated so many major sects and even almost become the next sect master?

Just as Zhou Qing finished tidying up and opened the courtyard door, he ran into Third Senior Brother, who had arrived on his sword.

After all, the two had agreed to go down the mountain together these past few days.

"My goodness, did you fall asleep in the bath last night?" Yan Xiaohu asked in surprise, looking at Zhou Qing's slightly pale skin.

Zhou Qing looked awkward.

Yan Xiaohu circled Zhou Qing, clicking his tongue and saying, "No, something's very wrong. No wonder your skin is whiter than mine; it turns out it's from soaking like this. Do you have any other secret tips?"

Zhou Qing shook his head speechlessly. "If you jump around less and get less sun, your skin can also turn white. Let's go to the Fire Kitchen for breakfast before going down the mountain."

Yan Xiaohu didn't dwell on it anymore, but just as they reached the foot of the mountain, they ran into He Han from Divine Peak.

"Junior Brother Zhou, I wonder if you have time now. Junior Sister Lu is looking for you about something!" He Han cupped his hands in greeting.

Zhou Qing was a little confused.

Why is she looking for me so early in the morning?

And she even sent her Second Senior Brother over.

Something abnormal is bound to be demonic.

Not going!

"I still have something..."

"Alright, having time is good. Your reputation isn't great, and I didn't want to take you to Divine Peak myself, but this is the first time Junior Sister Lu has asked me for help, so I have to do it well. Come with me!"

After saying that, He Han grabbed Zhou Qing and got onto the flying sword.

Zhou Qing quickly struggled, "No, why are you forcibly kidnapping people? You weren't this attitude last time at the Jade Cuisine Hall... Third Senior Brother, help!"

Before Zhou Qing could finish speaking, He Han had already pulled him into the air and headed straight for Divine Peak.

Only Yan Xiaohu was left standing there, blinking his small eyes. When he reacted, his face was full of conflict and hesitation.

"Go set up the stall or go see Fourth Child?"

"We're all brothers, it should be fine."

"Let's go see Fourth Child, but today is only the second day of the Treasure Exchange Gathering. I'll miss a lot of fat sheep. If I don't go, won't it seem too heartless and ungrateful? When he's most helpless, I can't be there for him in time."

"Forget it, everything depends on fate!"

Yan Xiaohu quickly went to the side, plucked a large red flower, and began to pull off the petals.

"Go, don't go, go, don't go, go..."

"I'm really not a good person. Fourth Child just yelled for help at me, and I'm still here pulling petals. Fourth Child, hold on, Third Senior Brother is coming!"

Yan Xiaohu threw away the last petal representing "go", roared, and rushed towards Divine Peak...

"Hey, He Han, you son of a..." When Yan Xiaohu finally found He Han, panting, he was about to curse him out to save someone, but suddenly realized that besides He Han, his other brothers were all there. So, he forcefully swallowed the last word back.

However, Li Daoxuan and the other five seemed not to have noticed Yan Xiaohu's arrival. They were alllie prone on the courtyard wall, stealthily peeking inside at something.

Yan Xiaohu was puzzled and also tiptoed over. When he climbed onto the wall and looked inside, he immediately became furious.

This was the back garden of a Welcoming Guest Hall. Inside, the lake was like a clear mirror, shimmering under the sunlight, with koi happily swimming in it.

Rugged and steep rockeries stood scattered by the lake, and winding corridors surrounded it.

At this moment, in a pavilion within the corridor, a beautiful silver-haired woman was being amused by Lu Yaoyao's few words, covering her mouth and laughing. Beside them, Zhou Qing was eating his spiritual food breakfast, occasionally smiling and nodding in agreement.

"I ran here to save you on an empty stomach, not even caring about making money, and you're here eating and drinking. Have you considered my feelings?"

Yan Xiaohu grumbled and turned to leave
