Gu Xingyue looked at Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product and spoke with a smile:
"Hey."
"Are you hiding something from me?"
Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product shuddered.
"For example-besides immortal herbs like you, there's something else in this valley... have you hidden it away?"
"Hahaha, how could that be!" Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product laughed dryly. "Nothing of the sort, my lord. I never lie. You won't find a more honest herb than me!"

"Hemming and hawing, hiding your head while showing your tail. Such conduct truly deserves death."
As she spoke, she raised a hand to strike.
"Don't!"
Frightened nearly out of her
