The Na'er King Easily Lured Away by Delicious Food

Watching her two silly senior sisters roughhouse again, Luo Jiuyou silently sighed.

These two living treasures of senior sisters—they felt uncomfortable all over if they went a day without causing a fuss.

At some point, Ye Guyi had quietly moved beside Luo Jiuyou. She pulled a neatly folded handkerchief from her sleeve and raised it to dab at his temple.

Luo Jiuyou instinctively tilted his head aside, meeting Ye Guyi's gaze.

His look made her cheeks flush slightly, but her hand did not stop. "Junior Brother, your face is covered in sweat."

Only then did Luo Jiuyou notice the beads of sweat sliding down his temple. He had worked up a sweat while practicing swordsmanship and had not yet had time to wipe it off.

He reached out and took the handkerchief. "I know. Thank you, Senior Sister."

Ye Guyi withdrew her hand, unconsciously rubbing the edge of the handkerchief between her fingertips, as though she wanted to say something but swallowed it back down.

"The three junior sisters are back too. Do you want to go see them?"

Feeling somewhat uneasy under his gaze, Ye Guyi hastily changed the subject.

"They're back?" Luo Jiuyou's eyes flickered faintly. He wanted to see just what that Silver Dragon Fish was up to.

Why had she already recovered at this point and been able to come out?

And that white-haired, red-eyed girl—was she the Silver Dragon Fish herself, or did she have some other origin?

"Of course. With Grandpa Qian stepping in, it was naturally a simple matter."

Ye Guyi smiled slightly, though her gaze fell upon Luo Jiuyou again, and her tone carried a hint of teasing.

"After all, not everyone is like you, Junior Brother. You originally went out just to obtain two soul rings, but somehow ended up with your fourth soul ring, then delayed yourself at the Icefire Yin Yang Well."

Luo Jiuyou raised an eyebrow. "Just lucky."

Seeing his Lucky Bro expression, Ye Guyi could not help but chuckle.

Meanwhile, Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong were still tangled up with each other.

Each was tugging at the other's sleeve while pinching the other's cheeks, shouting as they tussled.

"You let go first!" "You let go first!" Neither moved first.

Luo Jiuyou's mouth twitched at the sight. These two silly senior sisters.

Just then, a burst of light footsteps suddenly came from beyond the courtyard gate.

Na'er walked in front, chewing something with puffed-out cheeks. She was also clutching what appeared to be a candied hawthorn skewer.

Zi'er walked at her side, her steps steady as her calm gaze swept across the courtyard, as though confirming their surroundings.

Bi'er trailed behind, holding a freshly picked flower in her hands and lowering her head to smell it.

"Junior Sisters!" Ye Guyi was the first to spot the three of them, and her tone was noticeably brighter than before.

Luo Jiuyou turned his head as well, his gaze settling on Na'er—particularly those ruby-like eyes. A trace of doubt rose in his heart.

Was that white-haired, red-eyed girl the Silver Dragon King herself?

Before he could think further, Na'er had already swallowed what was in her mouth and broken into a broad grin.

"First Senior Sister! Second Senior Sister! Are you fighting again?"

Before coming here, she had already learned from her teacher about the situation.

There were three senior sisters above her, along with one senior brother.

To complete her mission, she naturally had to first figure out who was around the target.

When Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong saw outsiders approaching, their hands were still frozen in midair, pinching each other's cheeks. Their movements immediately stalled.

The three girls looked at one another, their six eyes meeting for several seconds. Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue hurriedly released each other and smiled awkwardly.

"Hello, Junior Sisters." Bibi Dong rubbed her nose, trying to pretend that nothing had happened.

Luo Jiuyou and Ye Guyi exchanged a glance and silently sighed inwardly.

These two silly senior sisters had embarrassed themselves in front of the newcomers the moment they met.

"You must be Senior Brother, right?" Na'er blinked, her gaze landing on Luo Jiuyou with curiosity and scrutiny.

"Hello, Junior Sister." Luo Jiuyou nodded.

His gaze lingered on her face for another moment, especially those red eyes. Something about them felt off.

Zi'er and Bi'er stood behind Na'er. Zi'er merely watched quietly, while Bi'er offered a slight smile as a friendly gesture.

"I heard from Grandpa Qian that Senior Brother is very impressive." Na'er stepped two paces forward and tipped her head up to look at him.

"You're already a level forty-nine Soul Ancestor. Can you let me see your soul rings?"

Luo Jiuyou froze for a moment, as if he had not expected her to make such a request.

Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong also looked over curiously.

Although they had seen Luo Jiuyou's soul ring configuration long ago, it still shocked them every time they saw it.

Luo Jiuyou fell silent for a moment but did not refuse. With a thought, four soul rings rose one after another beneath his feet.

Two red, one gold, and one black—four soul rings quietly hovered around him, reflecting entirely different glimmers in the evening light.

Zi'er and Bi Ji exchanged a look, a flash of shock passing through their eyes.

They had long known that this human cub was a candidate chosen by a god, and they had heard that he was quite powerful.

But seeing two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings and a Million-Year Soul Ring with their own eyes still far exceeded their expectations.

How long had it even been since he awakened?

A youth who had only recently stepped into the world of soul masters had already walked the road that ordinary soul masters spent most of their lives traversing.

And most importantly, there was that Million-Year Soul Ring.

Wasn't it from that dead fat grub?

The Heavenly Tribulation had descended for no reason at all.

They had never expected him to get such a bargain from it.

Na'er was stunned as well. Her gaze swept repeatedly across the three rings, and only after a long while did she speak. "So amazing..."

There was sincere amazement in her voice, but Luo Jiuyou did not miss the glimmer that flashed through her eyes.

Luo Jiuyou merely smiled and withdrew his soul rings. "Just lucky."

Zi JI and Bi Ji stood behind her, exchanging complicated looks.

Could their lord really complete the mission in this state...?

And why did her current personality seem a little childish...?

But when they remembered that they all had the bodies of six-year-olds now, they could only silently sigh.

Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue had already gone over to greet them as though they had known each other forever.

Bibi Dong grabbed Na'er's wrist. "Come on, come on! Let me tell you, the braised pork in the cafeteria is super delicious today!"

Qian Renxue crowded over too. "And grilled lamb chops! Grilled tenderloin! Roast chicken and duck! Braised goose! Sweet-and-sour ribs! Fried meat slices!"

Na'er's eyes lit up at the stream of dish names the two girls rattled off, and she could barely keep her drool in check.

Watching their lord get so easily lured away by food, Zi JI and Bi Ji could only follow helplessly.

Women were like five hundred ducks.

Luo Jiuyou watched the three little girls chattering away in front of him and thought silently, now there were six of them here.

He glanced again at Na'er walking in front, along with Zi'er and Bi'er, and had already reached a conclusion in his heart.

These three were definitely the handiwork of some Silver Dragon Fish.

He just had not figured out what exactly they wanted to do.

They had come here to take his bargain-bin teacher as their master. What scheme were they plotting now?

Could it be that the Silver Dragon Fish had once again exercised her earth-shattering wisdom and decided that, to destroy humanity, she first had to understand humanity?

Then transformed beautifully into a human and infiltrated Spirit Hall?

Hmm...

If that was the case, he might have to strike first.

From far away, Na'er's voice could still be heard drifting over from the cafeteria. "Is it really that delicious?" "Is it better than candied hawthorn?" "Then I want eight bowls!"

Then came Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue's startled cries.

"Can you eat that much?"

"Eight bowls, you mean?"

"You can, you can."

Zi JI and Bi Ji followed behind, their steps faltering. They could not shake the feeling that something had been wrong with this plan from the very beginning.

And that little brat called Luo Jiuyou seemed to have been staring at them from the start, as though he had known them all along.

That left them faintly uneasy.
