Perhaps Hong Ze was too focused, or perhaps Bi Xiao was hiding exceptionally well, because she was not discovered by Hong Ze.

Hong Ze continued to busy himself in an orderly fashion, making soy milk and tofu, a process as smooth as flowing clouds and water, completed in one go.

Seeing that Hong Ze was finally finished, the feeling in Bi Xiao's heart became even more real.

Now she urgently wanted to seek confirmation from Hong Ze, to seize the opportunity that was within her grasp.

"Eldest Senior Brother, what have you been tinkering with for so long? Could this tofu be some kind of miraculous elixir?"

Hong Ze was startled by the sudden voice and sprayed out all the soy milk he had just drunk.

This couldn't help but make Bi Xiao giggle, almost holding her stomach and laughing heartily.

When he saw that the person was Bi Xiao, Hong Ze had a look of helplessness.

He thought to himself, How did my small courtyard, which has been deserted for years, suddenly become so lively during this time?

Even Bi Xiao, who didn't live on Golden Turtle Island, came here today.

He immediately placed the soy milk in his hand on the table and casually wiped the soy milk from his mouth with his hand.

Then he opened his mouth and said to Bi Xiao, "Why do you walk without making a sound, girl? You didn't even say hello when you arrived.

You scared me so much, your Senior Brother, I almost choked to death on this bowl of soy milk. This can definitely be considered attempted murder."

Bi Xiao was in no mood to care about such things at the moment. Instead, she directly pushed open the door and walked into Hong Ze's Thatched Cottage.

And she reached out and picked up the soy milk that Hong Ze had just drunk, putting it under her nose to smell it.

A scent of soy milk couldn't help but awaken Bi Xiao's craving.

Ignoring the fact that this bowl of soy milk had already been drunk by Hong Ze, she immediately took a big gulp.

As the sweet soy milk entered her mouth, Innate Spiritual Energy also entered Bi Xiao's body and began to nourish her Eight Extraordinary Meridians.

This couldn't help but surprise Hong Ze. He thought to himself, How is this girl even more scatterbrained than Holy Mother Gui Ling?

After drinking the soy milk, Bi Xiao walked directly towards the tofu that Hong Ze was pressing.

She looked at it for a long time but couldn't understand anything.

"Eldest Senior Brother, people use alchemy furnaces to refine elixirs. What kind of alchemy method are you using?"

In Bi Xiao's understanding, besides Innate Spiritual Fruits containing Innate Spiritual Energy, only miraculous elixirs did.

Therefore, Bi Xiao felt that the soy milk and tofu that Hong Ze had made must also be top-grade miraculous elixirs.

Hong Ze was instead stunned by Bi Xiao's question and for a moment didn't know how to answer her.

After all, making tofu in later generations was not some profound technique; it was almost something anyone could do.

Seeing that Hong Ze didn't answer her, Bi Xiao spoke again, thinking she understood.

"Since it's a secret, then I, Bi Xiao, won't ask any more questions, so as not to make you, Eldest Senior Brother, feel awkward.

However, after these elixirs are refined, Eldest Senior Brother must give Bi Xiao a few, after all, those who see it get a share."

At this moment, Hong Ze was completely dumbfounded by Bi Xiao, thinking to himself, This girl's head isn't right, is it?

Remembering how this girl dared to sneak attack Yuanshi Tianzun in the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation in the future, Hong Ze felt even more strongly that her brain was not normal.

After all, Yuanshi Tianzun was a Saint. What was the difference between sneaking attacking a Saint and seeking death?

Helpless, he could only say, "Senior Brother, I don't know how to refine pills. These are just a few pieces of tofu I made.

If Junior Sister Bi Xiao likes to eat them, she can eat a few more later. Senior Brother is definitely not a stingy person."

Bi Xiao didn't care what Hong Ze said. After all, she had already learned from Zhao Gongming that Hong Ze would not admit how powerful he was.

Anyway, as long as she had tofu to eat, who cared whether the tofu was a miraculous elixir or just ordinary food?

So at this moment, Bi Xiao nodded repeatedly and said to Hong Ze.

"Then thank you, Eldest Senior Brother. I hope Eldest Senior Brother won't feel bad then."

Hong Ze smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, Eldest Senior Brother will make sure you're full of this tofu."

Bi Xiao was overjoyed. At the same time, she also remembered what Zhao Gongming had said, that the medicinal field of the Eldest Senior Brother was planted with top-grade Innate Spiritual Roots.

Immediately, she spoke again, "I think this tofu will take a while to set. How about Eldest Senior Brother takes Bi Xiao to visit your medicinal field?"

Hearing Bi Xiao call his vegetable garden a medicinal field, Hong Ze shook his head helplessly.

"Junior Sister Bi Xiao can go and see if you want, but what Senior Brother has is not a medicinal field, but just a vegetable garden for growing vegetables."

After speaking, he took Bi Xiao out of the Thatched Cottage and walked towards his vegetable garden.

As they walked, he didn't forget to introduce to Bi Xiao what tomatoes were, what chilies were, and what cucumbers were.

Bi Xiao listened with full attention, and at the same time, she didn't forget to ask Hong Ze how these things should be consumed.

Hong Ze was not stingy. He casually picked cucumbers, tomatoes, and other things and let Bi Xiao eat them directly while they were fresh.

Bi Xiao was not polite and ate heartily.

She even took the opportunity when Hong Ze wasn't paying attention to reach out and pluck two red chilies.

And she quickly put them in her mouth. The next moment was naturally predictable.

Looking at Bi Xiao, who was sticking out her tongue from the spiciness, Hong Ze couldn't help but show a helpless smile on his face.

"You girl, how can you eat this chili like this? Quickly eat a tomato."

Saying that, he picked a tomato and threw it to Bi Xiao. Bi Xiao put it in her mouth without hesitation.

Just as Hong Ze was taking Bi Xiao to visit his vegetable garden, the few hens in the chicken coop were not idle either.

"Who do you think our master should choose? Is it the silly and cute Holy Mother Gui Ling, or the mature and charming Golden Spirit Mother, or the gentle and refined Wu Dang Mother?"

"Why can't it be this mischievous Bi Xiao? I think she's also good. At least she can bring joy to our master."

"I think Holy Mother Gui Ling is more suitable. Look how silly and cute she is, and the master also likes her very much."

"I think we should match the master and Golden Spirit Mother together. Only Golden Spirit Mother can control the master, so he won't always force us to lay eggs for him to eat."

"Are you guys stupid? Why should the master choose one of them? Can't he just take them all?"

"That's right. The cultivation of those girls is too low. Only by letting them all marry the master can the master's safety be guaranteed."

Those few hens were secretly playing matchmaker, gossiping with great relish.

However, when they said those few girls had low cultivation, they weren't being boastful.

Because the cultivation of these few hens had long since reached the peak realm of Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Logically, they could have transformed and attained the Dao long ago, but they chose to give up transformation.

Because only by doing so could they continue to stay by Hong Ze's side and not be directly driven away by him.

Hong Ze had no idea that the few hens he raised were picking wives for him.

Instead, he and Bi Xiao would occasionally burst into laughter, making the atmosphere incredibly harmonious.
