Li Changshou looked at the three female Qi Refiners before him, one older and two younger...
Jiu Jiu was still bleary-eyed, stretching and yawning, her clothes somewhat disheveled.
Meanwhile, Youqin Xuanya stared straight at Li Changshou. Her eyes were clear and bright, her attitude upright, ready to accept punishment without complaint.
Ling'e stood by the bed with her head lowered, her face full of despair…
If anyone had asked Ling'e, the person involved, how she felt right now, the answer would definitely have been regret.
She should never have shown off her barbecue skills that one time, causing Little Martial Aunt and Senior Sister Youqin to fall one after the other;
She had clearly known Senior Brother would surely give her a vicious scolding after coming out of seclusion, yet she had still clung to the thought that Brother can't punish everyone...
Li Changshou closed his eyes and slowly let out a breath.
"Senior Brother Changshou!"
Youqin Xuanya clasped her hands and lowered her head in apology. Her ponytail swayed gently. "Xuanya was delighted at the sight of the spirit beasts, so I encouraged Junior Sister Ling'e and found every possible excuse to turn them into food for our bellies.
Xuanya is willing to accept any punishment Senior Brother sees fit!"
Li Changshou smiled faintly and asked gently, "Was it good?"
"It was... mm." Two flushes crossed the face of Youqin Xuanya, who ought to have been an icy beauty.
Jiu Jiu yawned. "Little Changshou, we only ate a few of your spirit beasts. Martial Aunt can repay you with precious materials and spirit stones."
Li Changshou said calmly, "Martial Aunt, your precious materials and spirit stones have already taken another form and are keeping you company."
"Oh no! I nearly forgot I've spent every last bit of my savings!"
