"Lin Yi! Lin Yi! " Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao's excited shouts came from afar, and Lin Yi turned his head to see the two girls pouncing at him without a care in the world. Lu Xiaozhong, on the other hand, was far behind them, unable to catch up at all.
"Xinyan! Xiaotao! " Lin Yi went up to them excitedly, sighing inwardly. Thank goodness that thing was able to restrain the vengeful soul, or he'd be trapped in Lightning Burial City forever. He'd never be able to see his friends again.
"Are you alright?" Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao examined Lin Yi from head to toe. There were some minor injuries on him, but they weren't serious. Only then did they relax. The name 'Thunder Burial' was too frightening. They'd been worried about Lin Yi ever since they'd been separated from each other.
"I'm fine. Look, I'm fine." Lin Yi chuckled, not mentioning the vengeful soul at all. He didn't want the two girls to worry for nothing.
"Eh? Miss Ni, why are you back?" Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao looked at each other in surprise when they noticed Ni Caiyue's presence.
"Wow, Master Lin, you really are a dragon among men. You've managed to hook up with the third goddess in such a short amount of time!" Lu Xiaozhong's words made Ni Caiyue blush.
"No, no, no! He didn't hook up with me, it's me … it's me … "Ni Caiyue waved her hands frantically.
"Then you're the one who hooked up with Master Lin?" Lu Xiaozhong slapped his thigh in realization. "Heh heh, no wonder you two got together so quickly. There's a saying that when a girl hooks up with a guy, there's a thin veil between them.
"Ah? What do you mean by a thin veil? I didn't … "Ni Caiyue blushed. Her face was veiled, but even her ears were red.
"Then Master Lin did it?" Lu Xiaozhong's gossipy soul was burning. He looked back and forth between Lin Yi and Ni Caiyue, trying to get to the bottom of it.
"Shoo, shoo, shoo. What are you talking about? What are you talking about!" Lin Yi's head started to throb. This Ni girl's pig-teammate trait was really quite troublesome. There was clearly nothing wrong with her, but anyone would think that there was something fishy going on with her messy answers. Even Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao had a mischievous look in their eyes. Wouldn't the rice be cooked if they kept guessing blindly?
"That's right, there's nothing between us. I didn't stab him, and he didn't stab me!" Ni Caiyue angrily defended herself.
Holy shit! Upon hearing this, Lin Yi almost spat out a mouthful of blood. What do you mean by the more I explain, the worse it gets? This is called the more I explain, the worse it gets!
"Shut up, I'll say it!" Lin Yi really couldn't stand everyone's meaningful gazes, so he had to personally explain, "This chick was chased by two of Chang Laiting's lackeys and fled back to this place to ask for help. She happened to meet me, so I helped her out. After that, she didn't dare to leave alone, so she followed me."
"That's right, that's why we didn't stab each other!" Ni Caiyue's pig-teammate halo was everywhere, and Lin Yi could only stare at the sky, speechless. Fortunately, everyone understood what had happened, and they looked at each other, not sure if they should laugh or cry.
"Alright, did you get anything from this trip?" Wang Xinyan changed the topic in time. She knew that there was nothing between the two, but she couldn't let Ni Caiyue continue, or the rice would really be cooked.
"No, there's only a mass grave. There's not even a single weed, let alone Xuan Grass." Lin Yi shook his head with a bitter smile and asked, "How about you guys?"
"We didn't find any Xuan Grasses, but at least we found some valuable herbs. It's better than nothing." Wang Xinyan and the others shook their heads.
At the end of the day, Ni Caiyue was the only one in the group who found Xuan Grasses. They didn't know if they should say that the girl was extremely lucky, or that she was a fool with a fool's luck.
It wasn't an outcome they were willing to accept, but there was nothing they could do about it. This was how rare treasures worked, and only the fated could get them. Otherwise, it wouldn't matter how strong one was.
"If that's the case, then there's no need to force it. Let's go back." Lin Yi decided. There was still some time before the one-month deadline, and he could still try his luck if he didn't want to, but the chances were slim. Staying here would be a waste of time.
"Alright." Wang Xinyan and the others, naturally, didn't have any objections.
"You went down to the Lightning Grave? Isn't there no Xuan Grasses down there? Didn't they say that there were Xuan Grasses everywhere? "Ni Caiyue finally realized what was going on and asked Lin Yi.
Lin Yi looked at her helplessly. He understood now that the rumor that the Thunder Burial Ground had Xuan Cultivating Grass was just a rumor. The person who spread the rumor probably hadn't even been to the basin before. They thought that there would be more Xuan Cultivating Grass in the area, but it was just a beautiful misunderstanding. Lin Yi looked at Lin Yi helplessly. He knew that the Thunder Burial Ground had Xuan Cultivating Grass.
"Is there or isn't there?" Ni Caiyue asked.
"There's your sister!" Lin Yi rolled his eyes at her.
"Huh? I don't have a sister … "Ni Caiyue was stunned for a moment, then she blushed and said," Ah! Don't tell me you're talking about … my part … Young hero … You're teasing me again! "
"What are you talking about?" Lin Yi looked at her, confused. He didn't understand what Ni Caiyue was talking about, but he understood when he saw her nervously covering her lower body. He glared at her, speechless. "I'm going to f * ck your sister!"
"You … You really are a pervert!" Ni Caiyue took a few steps back and pointed at Lin Yi angrily. She looked like she was going to turn around and run at any moment.
"You're the pervert! Your whole family are perverts! " Lin Yi was so mad at the girl. They were both human, but how could she be so imaginative?
"My whole family isn't perverts!" Ni Caiyue stuck her neck out and thought about it for a while. She quickly added, "I'm not a pervert either!"
Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao, on the other hand, couldn't help but chuckle at the scene. Lin Yi, who'd always been calm and collected, was losing his mind over and over again in front of this stupid Ni Caiyue.
Lin Yi was speechless. He slapped his forehead and said, "I'm such a cheapskate, why am I arguing with a silly girl like you …"
"I'm not a silly girl, my name is Ni Caiyue!" Ni Caiyue clarified with a serious face.
