The sect in Yuzhou City.
Ning Qianqian was laying floor tiles with her father when she heard laughter and chatter outside.
She rose and walked outside, only to see Chen Baiqing carrying candied fruit in her arms. Upon spotting her, Chen Baiqing ran over.
Chen Baiqing took out the largest piece and offered it to her. "This is candied fruit from the Capital City. Want to try one?"
"Thank you..." Ning Qianqian hurriedly reached out to accept it.
Ning Qianqian looked up, but all she saw was Chu Xingchen teasing Li Yingling with a smile.
She could not help asking, "Where's Senior Li?"
Chen Baiqing sighed softly. "Master said Senior Brother has things of his own to do."
In truth, she had a very good impression of her senior brother.
He merely looked a little fierce when expressionless, and a little fiercer when he smiled.
But deep down, he was still very gentle toward her.
Ning Qianqian nodded slightly. Then, as though remembering something, she hurriedly gave Chen Baiqing an apologetic smile before running toward Chu Xingchen.
"Sect Leader, letters arrived from Yuzhou City."
Chu Xingchen looked at Ning Qianqian and asked in puzzlement, "From whom?"
"Both the Yuzhou City Demon-Suppression Bureau and Chanwood Temple." Ning Qianqian smiled apologetically. "I left the letters in my room for the time being. I'll fetch them now. Please wait a moment, Sect Leader."
Li Yingling frowned slightly and guessed, "Could Chanwood Temple be asking us for those Dharma Treasures?"
"Hm? With their Foundation Establishment Realm abbot and their grandmaster-uncle, who's at the Golden Core Stage at best? Even if you kneaded everyone in Chanwood Temple into one lump, they still wouldn't be enough for me to toss around."
Li Yingling silently gave her arrogant master a thumbs-up.
There was no arguing with that.
