"Senior-apprentice Brother Xiaobai …" Qu Yi frowned, a trace of hesitation flashing across her face. She took a step forward as if she wanted to pull him back.
Zhu Yao took a step to the side and cut in, blocking her line of sight.
"You …" Qu Yi looked at her angrily, displeased that she had been stopped.
"I say, this martial grand-niece." Zhu Yao chuckled at her, and then, she glanced at Ye Qingcang at the side. "How about you conduct yourself? He couldn't be too greedy. Some things couldn't be given, so it was best to make it clear. My hometown has a special name for this kind of person. It's not a nice name. You definitely won't like it. "It's called Green Tea Bitch. I hope you're not one of them." So if you can't promise me anything, at least let him go. If you don't like him, don't ruin him, okay? After all, he's your Senior Martial Brother with whom you've had a relationship for more than ten years. "This kind of unclear, seemingly liking, but also not liking, was the most hurtful.
"I …" Qu Yi's face was a little pale. She seemed to understand something and slowly lowered her head. "I will explain clearly."
"Hmm." He wasn't completely hopeless.
"Grand Uncle …" Ye Qingcang was a little anxious. He took a step forward. "Don't misunderstand, I'm with …"
"Stop!" Zhu Yao raised her hand and made a pause gesture, stopping him from explaining. "There's no need for you to tell me. You should tell Little Bai. Whatever you decide, it has nothing to do with me. But … you better make it clear to him. If it drags on for too long and causes Xiao Bai to cry … "Her tone changed and her voice turned cold." I will beat you up! "
After saying that, he didn't care about their expressions and turned around to follow the stupid red-crowned crane that was still circling in the sky.
Qu Yi was destined to be Ye Qingcang's sister. Even if the plot had changed, the two of them still ended up together. Therefore, Xiaobai was destined to become cannon fodder. They were still young, and their relationship had just budded. Rather than suffering pain in the future, it was better to withdraw from the relationship before it became too deep. It was better to suffer short-term pain than long-term pain.
It wasn't appropriate for her to directly intervene in this kind of matter, so she could only give an appropriate reminder. As for Qu Yi, he could see through her heart with a single glance. On one hand, he could not bear to part with his childhood sweetheart relationship with Xiao Bai. On the other hand, she was moved by Ye Qingcang. She herself was a little confused, but she didn't want to let go of either side. She originally wanted to drag it out until she could make a decision on her own. But at that time … He was afraid that one of them would be thoroughly injured. That was why she provoked her.
Sister Qu Yi was not born a bad person and could understand what she was saying.

"Seventh elder sister, catch it!" Just as Zhu Yao returned to Skybond Peak, a green ball pounced towards her.
She raised her hand and took over.
"Doudou?"
"Pea …" Pea called out. It snuggled into her embrace with all its might, while Lil Lil Lil Lil Lil Lil cried. Water began to pour out of it, drenching her.
Was she … crying?
"What's wrong?"
A small phoenix with short claws rushed out of the house, its whole body covered in red fluff. His eyes lit up as he looked at Lil Pea, who was in her hands. He used all his strength to rub his little wings on his chubby body. Finally, with a flash of light, a fist-sized ball of fire appeared. It immediately waved its wings towards her. "Seventh Elder Sister, hold on tight. I'm going to roast it. "
"Pea …" Pea shivered, and more water came out of her body, drenching her like a boiled chicken.
"…"
Zhu Yao immediately snapped her fingers, extinguishing the sparks that Little Eighth had painstakingly produced. She looked at him with a stern expression. "Little Eighth, stop fooling around."
"Seventh elder sister, you're biased!" Little Eighth complained, pointing at the pea in her hands. "You're not even letting me eat a single pea. You're abusing an underage little animal."
Zhu Yao flicked her finger towards his forehead, and Little Eighth was instantly sent flying like an angry little bird. Mn, it was the red one.
"Enough. Pea had just awakened his spiritual consciousness not long ago, so his intelligence is limited. Stop scaring him all day long. "
Little Eighth rolled a few rounds before crawling back up. He indignantly glanced at the pea in her hands, snorted coldly, and turned his head away. However, he did not chase after her relentlessly.
"I'll let you off today!" He gave a 'I'm giving face to my seventh elder sister!' look.
Zhu Yao felt a slight headache. She wondered what was wrong with this Little Eighth? Usually, he looked fine. According to his two lifetimes, even if he was not considered an adult, he could still be considered a young phoenix. Yet, the moment he saw Pea, he would go crazy, thinking of various ways to scare him to the point of jumping up and down. In the beginning, it was still alright. He was only the size of a palm, and even if he wanted to chew on it, he couldn't be bothered with him. In the past few days, he had grown a full size, and his godly energy had recovered a little as well. Thus, he began to have wicked thoughts.
"Seventh elder sister." Little Eighth once again rubbed against her with his short claws, and said mysteriously. "Say, when do you think the Far Ancient Highgod will come out from this stupid pea?"
When? Naturally, it would be when she calls him master. Zhu Yao sized Little Eighth up. "Why are you asking this?"
He slightly turned his head away, and said a little flustered. "I … I just have some things, I want to … ask him. He's a Highgod, so he definitely knows everything. "
Zhu Yao frowned. "Little Eighth, he's not the Far Ancient Highgod."
"Ah! Ah? " Little Eighth was startled, and then anxiously said. "He's clearly the Highgod, and seventh elder sister calls him master as well. How can he not be?"
"He's indeed my master." Zhu Yao sighed, and explained. "But he's not my master. He's my master, Yu Yan, not the Far Ancient Highgod. Master, he … "She paused for a moment, and then slowly said a moment later." Master … is no longer around. "
Little Eighth lowered his head in disappointment. His entire bird was a little dispirited, and he lightly muttered. "The Highgod is no longer around, then who am I supposed to ask?"
"Just what do you want to ask?" Zhu Yao stroked his feathers. "Tell seventh elder sister. Perhaps, I might know?"
Little Eighth raised his head and glanced at her, before immediately turning away. He continued to mutter. "Tch, a phoenix as handsome as me doesn't even know. How would you know when you're so ugly? "
Zhu Yao raised her hand and slapped towards his bird head. What kind of words are you talking about!?
"Aiya!" Little Eighth hugged his head with his two wings, and leaped a few steps away. With a reproachful look, he said. "Seventh elder sister, you can't blame me for being ugly, right?"
Haah, my bad temper!
"If you have the guts, don't run!"
The little red bird slipped away, and instantly disappeared without a trace.
Don't let me catch you again!
Zhu Yao glared at the direction it escaped to, and then looked at Peapea in her hand. Just when she was about to call her master out to discuss some matters. Her divine sense unintentionally scanned someone outside the door, and it was even someone she was familiar with.
"Grand-martial aunt, disciple Ye Qingcang has something important to discuss with you."
Why is the bugged student here? Didn't they just separate earlier?
Zhu Yao's heart was filled with doubts. Keeping the peapea, she walked out.
Ye Qingcang was currently waiting outside the door, though his brows were tightly furrowed, looking as though he had a lot on his mind. It couldn't be because of girly Qu Yi, right? Could it be that girly Qu Yi abandoned him and chose Little Bai? This doesn't make sense at all!
"Grand-martial aunt!" Seeing her come out, Ye Qingcang's brows relaxed a little. He respectfully bowed to her.
"Is there something you need from me?" Say it then, what's there to be unhappy about? Say it to cheer her up. He was the best at consoling a broken-hearted youth.
Ye Qingcang hesitated for a moment, and then said with a conflicted look. "There's something this disciple can't shake in his heart. I hope that grand-martial aunt can guide me. "
"What is it?"
His brows furrowed even tighter. He looked at his surroundings a little anxiously, as though he was afraid of something?
Zhu Yao placed down a formation with a wave of her hand, isolating their auras and figures. She silently shook her head in her heart. Youngsters these days are so prideful! Why don't they think about it? It's not like you're a superstar, who would be interested in your love life?
"Can you tell me now?"
Ye Qingcang gritted his teeth. As though he had finally made up his mind, he took out a round cup-like mystic artifact from his bosom.
"Eh!?" The token of love with girly Qu Yi? Why did she feel it looked a little familiar?
"Granny. To tell you the truth, back then in that secret realm, after senior-martial brother Little Bai and I got separated from you, I accidentally picked this up. I picked it up by accident. "
Zhu Yao was startled, as she fiercely stared at that cup-shaped mystic artifact. "Medicine King Cauldron!" The hell, wasn't this the male lead's pellet refining godly artifact?
"Granny recognizes this item?" Ye Qingcang's face was filled with shock.
"Mn." Not only did she recognize it, she had already seen it countless times in the scenario, alright? "The Medicine King Cauldron can increase the success rate of pellet refining by thirty percent, and it can be considered as a divine artifact. Since you're able to shrink it to such a small size, most likely, you have already formed a blood contract with it, and it can be stored in your divine sense, right? "
Ye Qingcang was startled for a moment, as though he did not expect that she would know about it so clearly.
"You picked this thing up in the Secret Realm. A place like that …" Zhu Yao glanced at him, and continued. "You want to ask me? "You want to ask me if forming a blood contract with it will affect you in any way?"
Ye Qingcang's face paled, and he immediately explained. "Granny … I didn't intentionally hide it from you, it's just that I wasn't clear on what it was in the beginning. My blood had unintentionally sprinkled onto its body, and only recently did I realize that it was in my divine sense."
"Don't be nervous!" Zhu Yao found it a little funny. "It's not like you have the obligation to report everything to me, I won't blame you."
"Granny …" He had a conflicted look, as though he did not know what to say.
"Alright!" Zhu Yao patted on his shoulders. This was something that belonged to him in the first place, and after going around in circles, it was still picked up by him. "Don't worry, that pervert in the secret realm … Uh, I'm talking about that heretic practitioner who refines beasts. Although he's not a good person, this is a good item, so you can keep it at ease. There isn't any bad aura on it either, so I believe it won't affect you in any way. In the future, you have to become a Pellet Refinement Master, you know? "
Ye Qingcang was startled, as though he never expected that she would so easily resolve the matter that he had been worried about for such a long time. Actually, ever since he bound this cauldron, he faintly sensed that it was an extraordinary item. However, he was afraid that it would harm his body, so he had been hesitating on whether he should reveal this matter. Would it attract the covetous eyes of others? He did not have anyone he could trust by his side either. After hesitating for a long time, he realized that he could only ask his granny, who had been protecting him throughout the entire journey in the secret realm.
He thought that if he were to say it, even if she would not have any ill intentions, at the very least, she would be a little angry at his act of hiding it from her. He never expected that she would not mind it in the slightest, and would brush it off so easily. In her eyes, there was not even a single hint of desire. It was as though no matter how heaven-defying an item he picked up, it would have nothing to do with her. At that moment, his heart was filled with joy, yet, he faintly felt a hint of indescribable disappointment.
"Granny … Actually, other than this cauldron, I picked up something else as well." He could not help but blurt out the words that he was not prepared to say even if he was beaten to death.
"Something else?" It couldn't be that Pellet Ancestor's inheritance, right?
He then took out a small jade tablet. "Inside are pellet refining methods, and a few pellet recipes."
"Oh." As expected, it's that inheritance. "Work hard, young man!"
Ye Qingcang was startled, and was a little doubtful. "That's it?"
Zhu Yao sized him up in a strange manner. What else do you want? You can't be asking me to sponsor you, right? That's right, at the very least, he called her granny.
Gritting her teeth, she silently took out a piece of spirit stone tile. She had dug it out from the floorboards of the great hall with much difficulty, and stuffed it into his hands. With a heavy tone, she said. "Young man, I can only support you up to here. Why don't you go buy some medicinal ingredients to level up? "
"…" He looked at her as though he was dumbfounded.
Could it be that it was still not enough? Hey, you have to learn to be content, young man!
"I really don't have any left!" I still have to return and dig at the floorboards. It's really troublesome!
Ye Qingcang looked at her dumbfoundedly for a moment, and then, he suddenly burst out into laughter. The more he laughed, the louder he laughed. In the end, he laughed so hard that he was about to bend over.
Zhu Yao's expression darkened. Why did she feel a little displeased?
"Hey, young man, that's enough." Leaving some face for his elders, what was with him laughing like that?
"Granny, granny, you …" He finally managed to stop his laughter, and shook his head. With a hint of understanding, and a hint of self-mockery, he said. "Granny, you really make Qingcang … feel ashamed, ashamed of my inferiority …"
Earlier, he was actually worried that she would covet his things, and was worried that she would kill him and steal his treasures. Looking at it now, it was extremely laughable. Or perhaps, only people with dark hearts would think that others were the same as them, right?
"Is there anything else?" Zhu Yao glared at him a little displeased.
He took a deep breath, straightened his expression, and respectfully bowed to her. "Thank you, granny, for your teachings."
"Eh?" What did I teach you?
"This disciple shall take his leave." However, he did not plan on saying anything else, as he turned around and headed down the mountain.
He left behind a confused Zhu Yao. Just what in the world was this guy doing here? Was he purposely showing off his cheat?
Amazing!
As expected, bugs were really annoying.

"This time … What are your plans?" A white figure appeared next to Zhu Yao.
Yu Yan glanced at the departing figure, and then reached out to stroke his disciple's hair. Just as he was about to let go, after pondering for a moment, he took the opportunity to hold onto her hand, and intertwined their fingers.
"Master …" Zhu Yao turned around and pounced over. Her heart was so tired that she leaned on his shoulder. She needed some motivation. "Haah, youngsters nowadays are getting harder and harder to deal with."
"Why?"
Zhu Yao pouted. "He's a good person."
