From beginning to end, the five brothers clinging to the wall ignored Yan Xiaohu and instead whispered to each other.
"You think it's really true?"
"I don't know, but the more I look at them, the more they look like mother and daughter."
"It's probably psychological. Didn't Master say that he hinted at it yesterday, and this Profound Abyss Immortal doesn't have a Dao companion at all yet? That Senior Si Kong Yan from the Azure Flame Dao Palace still hasn't won her over."
"Just because she says no doesn't mean it's not true. You can't be sure about this."
"Didn't Master also ask Little Junior Sister? What did she say?"
"Little Junior Sister said that she hasn't seen her parents since she could remember, and she's lived a life of hiding and sneaking around since she was little. It's really heartbreaking to think about."
"Actually, I have a little doubt. It's understandable for Little Junior Sister to get close to and test the Profound Abyss Immortal, but why call that guy over? To eat breakfast? We don't even get a chance to eat that kind of spiritual food."
"Second Senior Brother, what did Little Junior Sister say when she asked you to bring someone? Seeing him eat with oil dripping from his mouth, I'm really annoyed right now!"
At this moment, Zhou Qing was utterly satisfied. He didn't expect to be eating spiritual food from the Jade Cuisine Hall again so soon.
No, it should be even better. After all, this was prepared for the Azure Feather Immortal Sect Master in front of him, and the spiritual energy was even more abundant.
As the host, he couldn't be looked down upon in terms of food, right?
But the other person only took a couple of bites and stopped eating, saying she wanted to maintain her figure. Wouldn't so much food be wasted?
So, at Lu Yaoyao's suggestion, Zhou Qing was called to "clean up the mess."
For a moment, Zhou Qing couldn't tell if he was grateful to Lu Yaoyao or slightly resentful.
It was also his own lack of discipline, not controlling his mouth. Fortunately, almost all the dishes hadn't been touched much, so it wasn't really cleaning up leftovers.
"Azure Feather Immortal Sect Master, Profound Abyss Immortal, I didn't expect her to be such an approachable beautiful woman."
Zhou Qing clicked his tongue. He thought she would be an old woman.
This Lu Yaoyao was also quite the social butterfly. The other person only arrived yesterday, and today she was like a relative she hadn't seen in years, talking and laughing, not at all shy.
"Sister, I actually know a secret to maintaining youth. I got this from an almost extinct ancient book. I can guarantee that besides me, no one else knows about it," Lu Yaoyao said with a mysterious look.
The Profound Abyss Immortal's eyes immediately lit up, and she sounded a bit impatient: "Quick, tell me."
Lu Yaoyao immediately chuckled: "Sister should know about the legendary Youth Preservation Pill, right? According to ancient records, the Youth Preservation Pill was inspired by it."
"Really?" The Profound Abyss Immortal became even more curious.
Lu Yaoyao nodded repeatedly: "Absolutely. It's just that the required materials are a bit expensive, and even a bit obscure. For example, the first one is Ink Treasure Mud. This comes from the mud about ten meters underground after a thousand-year-old ancient tree has decayed. Of course, the darker the color, the better..."
Watching the two women exchange ideas seriously, Zhou Qing on the side felt a bit bored, and more than that, awkward.
After all, he couldn't understand what they were saying, and he felt even more bored.
He simply got up quietly, preparing to leave.
After taking two steps, he suddenly felt something was wrong, so he turned back, tidied up the dishes on the stone table, and carried them away.
"Was it really just for breakfast?" After leaving the corridor, no one called him, and Zhou Qing immediately became happy.
If only days like this could come every day.
Feeling much better after leaving the back garden, a sudden intuition made him turn his head, and he saw five unfriendly faces on the courtyard wall.
After thinking for a moment, he walked over.
"Greetings, Senior Brothers!" Zhou Qing bowed.
The five jumped down from the wall and immediately surrounded Zhou Qing, rubbing their fists together.
Heart Insight Points +5
The
Leech-like pervert
above Li Daoxuan's head visibly changed to
Shameless pervert
.
Zhou Qing's face looked awkward.
"Was it good?" Li Daoxuan asked, filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Zhou Qing nodded repeatedly: "It was delicious, except the spirit rice was a bit overcooked, and eating meat buns in the morning can be greasy, but the meat filling inside was quite tasty, it should be White Spirit Rabbit leg meat, and also, that..."
"Shut up!" Li Daoxuan roared, his eyes practically spitting fire.
He had never seen such a shameless person, getting a good deal and still acting innocent. How could he be so ungrateful?
"What were you guys talking about together?" the second senior brother, He Han, questioned.
Zhou Qing scratched his head: "I was just focused on eating, I didn't say anything, and they were talking about women's topics, so it wasn't appropriate for me to interrupt. Oh, right, Senior Brother He, will there be more tomorrow? If so, you don't need to come and pick me up personally, I'll come early and wait nearby."
"Scram!"
The others cursed, and Zhou Qing quickly ran down the mountain.
He was afraid that if he ran too late, they would put a sack over his head and drag him to a secluded spot to beat him up.
Arriving at Flame Dragon City at the foot of the mountain, Zhou Qing strolled around while picking his teeth.
Today's stalls were pretty much the same as yesterday, mostly selling things that were hard to distinguish between real and fake.
At this moment, with a thought, his personal panel appeared.
Name: Zhou Qing Age: Nineteen Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Cultivation Technique: Taiqing Mysterious Qi Art Talent Skills: Mind Mirror Vision - LV2 (31/200), Reduce Presence - LV2 (51/100) Skill Fragments: 1/3 (Cannot obtain)
His Heart Insight Points had been increasing quite quickly recently, but his Ignore Points had barely moved during this time. He needed to find some time to accumulate more.
Afterward, Zhou Qing wandered around and finally found his Third Senior Brother's stall.
"Oh, so you're full and satisfied, and now you remember your Third Senior Brother?" Yan Xiaohu couldn't help but tease Zhou Qing as soon as he saw him.
Zhou Qing chuckled, knowing that his Third Senior Brother wouldn't abandon him.
"Wasn't I forcibly taken away? Didn't say a word. After closing up shop today, my treat!" Zhou Qing said generously.
Yan Xiaohu immediately became happy: "You said it! I want to go to Jade Cuisine Hall."
"Brother, that place is too expensive, I can't afford it. When I came just now, I saw that Imperial Delicacies Pavilion was quite good, let's go there!" Zhou Qing pointed in a direction and said.
Yan Xiaohu shrugged: "Alright, I'll let you off this time. Quick, tell me, what did Profound Abyss Immortal want with you?"
"I don't know either, we didn't say more than a few sentences in total," Zhou Qing said.
Yan Xiaohu asked curiously, "Then what exactly did you say?"
Zhou Qing recalled carefully.
"Came???"
"Came!!!"
"Come?"
"Come!"
"Coming again?"
"Not coming anymore?"
"Come again!"
"Then come again!"
Yan Xiaohu was dumbfounded, taking a long time to recover.
[Heart Insight Points +9]
The note above Yan Xiaohu's head quickly changed from [Little Junior Brother with a Lustful Heart and Lustful Guts] to [Little Junior Brother Who's Awesome to the Heavens].
Zhou Qing scratched his head. It should have been just these few sentences. When he first arrived, he paid his respects. Then Profound Abyss Immortal pointed at the food in front of her and asked if he wanted some.
Since he hadn't eaten breakfast yet, and Lu Yaoyao was winking at him from the side, he didn't stand on ceremony and started eating.
He felt a bit embarrassed during the meal and only ate until he was half full. The other party told him to have more. Seeing that she really didn't seem to want to eat anymore, he simply finished everything.
There was nothing he could do. He wasn't the sweet-talker Lu Yaoyao. For someone of that level, it was already quite good that she would say a few words to a stranger like him.
Although it was concise, as long as he could understand the meaning, that was enough.
At this moment, Yan Xiaohu grabbed Zhou Qing's shoulder with a look of admiration: "From now on, you are my brother. If you can establish a connection with Azure Feather Immortal Sect, even Master, that old man, will have to call you Dad..."
Slap!!!
Before Yan Xiaohu could finish speaking, he was slapped hard on the back of his neck.
