"The Lady Boss won't be back so soon. She'll probably have to wait for a day or two. Find a place to meditate." The carpenter said, then turned around and walked deeper into the forest. He sat cross-legged under an old tree.
Miao Yi walked over and sat beside him, asking, "Why?"
The carpenter calmly replied, "It's simple. The Lady Boss has many brothers and sisters in her family, and they are still close. Since she's here, she naturally has to visit them one by one."
"Oh! She is the daughter of the Yun family, after all. She is indeed stronger than the Feng family. " Miao Yi nodded, then poked his head over and whispered, "Did something happen during your trip to the Boundless Realm? You don't look so good."
The carpenter didn't even look at Miao Yi with his eyes closed. He slapped Miao Yi's face and pushed his head away, saying, "You don't have the right to know yet."
Miao Yi turned his head and flung away the slap on his face, then asked, "What do you mean by qualified to know?"
"When you have the right to know, the Lady Boss will naturally tell you. Then, you will know what it means to have the right to know." The carpenter calmly said, not saying another word.
'Forget it if you don't want to tell me!' Miao Yi's expression was disdainful. He popped an Orb of Will into his mouth, then closed his eyes and sat cross-legged. He felt his cultivation speed increase by several times, and was secretly delighted.
The speed at which he refined thirty Orbs of Will every day! Originally, he needed twenty-eight years to break through to Blue Lotus Seventh Grade. Now, he only needed a little more than seven years. If he added the five to six years of cultivation he had previously, he would probably be able to break through to Blue Lotus Seventh Grade in another six years. What a godly speed! Suddenly reaching the Red Lotus realm wasn't too far away anymore.
On the morning of the third day, the Lady Boss and the stonemason descended from the sky. The two of them had just finished cultivating.
Miao Yi looked at the Lady Boss and was taken aback. He noticed that her eyes were red and there were traces of fresh tears on her face. It seemed like she had just been crying.
The Lady Boss seemed to have realized something. She dived into the curtains and turned her back to the outside.
The Carpenter and Stonemason's expressions were gloomy as well. The two of them rose into the air. The Lady Boss didn't invoke her arts again. Instead, the two of them invoked their arts and flew …
Once again in the vast desert, Miao Yi would occasionally turn his head back to look. Suddenly, he saw the Lady Boss slowly open her eyes, as though the familiar air here had awakened her. It was as if she had returned home, but her eyes that looked out of the curtains were dim.
The setting sun bathed the entire desert in a golden hue. The fragrant bed descended from the sky and landed on the rooftop of the Tempest Tavern, right in front of the small room on the rooftop.
The carpenter and stonemason left the palanquin after alighting. The Lady Boss crawled out of the muslin tent and put away the bed of fragrant concubine. She entered the room and closed the door. She didn't even greet Miao Yi, turning a blind eye to him.
Miao Yi could only shake his head inwardly. As usual, this woman would probably be cooped up in her room and get drunk for a few days. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have done it in the first place.
"Lady Boss, do you still want me to deliver water today?" Miao Yi knocked on the door and asked.
"There's no need," a muffled reply came from the room.
Miao Yi replied with an 'Oh', then turned around and left. Just as he was about to go downstairs, he saw the carpenter and stonemason leading Pi Junzi and Tao Yongchun upstairs.
Miao Yi moved to the side of the stairs to make way for her. He asked curiously, "What is it?"
"To relieve the Lady Boss's boredom." The carpenter casually replied.
To relieve the Lady Boss's boredom? Miao Yi was at a loss. Why would he bring these two demons along to relieve boredom?
Pi Junzi and Tao Yongchun were also at a loss. Miao Yi immediately stayed at the foot of the stairs to see what was going on. The stonemason knocked on the door and said, "Lady Boss, Pi Junzi and Tao Yongchun are here."
The Lady Boss seemed a little puzzled. She asked, "What is it?"
The carpenter replied, "Didn't we agree back at the Ice Palace that we would find the two of them to verify Niu Er's words?"
Standing at the foot of the stairs, Miao Yi was speechless. 'You're still thinking about this?'
Pi Junzi and Tao Yongchun looked at Miao Yi. They seemed a little nervous, as though they were asking about something.
The Lady Boss was silent for a while, then said, "Come in!"
The door opened, and Pi Junzi and Tao Yongchun were pushed inside. The Lady Boss had already untied her hair. She took out a comb and sat in front of the dressing table, slowly combing her hair.
The Lady Boss was expressionless. She looked at the trembling Pi Junzi and Tao Yongchun behind her in the mirror, and calmly said, "Tell us about Niu Er during the Sea of Constellations Subjugation Crusade."
The two of them subconsciously looked outside, and saw Miao Yi pacing back and forth on the rooftop with his hands behind his back. The two of them were a little hesitant.
"Niu Er! Come here. "The Lady Boss called out.
Miao Yi hurriedly ran over. He laughed dryly and said, "What is it, Lady Boss?"
"Didn't you want us to ask them? I think they seem to be trying to help you hide something! "The Lady Boss turned around and asked," My employees aren't listening to me anymore. What do you think I should do? "
The corner of Miao Yi's mouth froze. 'Why does it sound like she's chasing these two away?' He turned to the two of them and smiled bitterly. "Lady Boss already knows a little. There's nothing to hide. Just tell us whatever you want to ask."
'Really?' The two of them had similar doubts on their faces.
Miao Yi nodded. The two of them immediately bowed to the Lady Boss and asked, "Lady Boss, where would you like to start?"
The Lady Boss stared at the mirror and combed her hair. She didn't answer his question and said, "Niu Er. Go to the kitchen and hide for a while. With you around, I'm afraid they won't be able to tell us the truth."
"..." Miao Yi's expression twitched. 'The kitchen? Is there a need to hide so far away? ' The carpenter and stonemason both glared at him. He could only leave speechlessly.
After Miao Yi left, the Lady Boss asked, "I heard that Niu Er had a lover who died in the Sea of Constellations Subjugation Crusade. Is that true?"
Pi Junzi and Tao Yongchun looked at each other and replied in unison, "Yes."
"Then start from this lover. Tell us everything you know. If you hide anything, you know the consequences." The Lady Boss waved her hand with her back facing them, gesturing for them to start.
Qi Xiuhong! At first, the two of them didn't know anything about this woman. Later on, when everyone thought Miao Yi was dead, they hid together to seek refuge. Only when they talked about Miao Yi did they find out from Zhao Fei and the others.
From a White Lotus realm Mountain Chieftain of Mount Calming Sea, Miao Yi used his power to become the ship's Steward. He then used his power to gather a group of people to form the 'Red Scarves Alliance'. Coincidentally, Qi Xiuhong, a White Lotus realm female cultivator, was among them. That was when Miao Yi met Qi Xiuhong. As soon as they got off the ship, Miao Yi gathered the 'Red Scarves Alliance' and defeated the disciples of the three major sects. After that, while they were hiding in the Western Star Sea, Miao Yi took Qi Xiuhong as his concubine. While he was in hiding, Miao Yi had gathered forces to repel his enemies several times, killing them and stealing their treasures. Later on, Gu Sanzheng and the others from the three major sects came to seek revenge. The Red Scarves Alliance betrayed their Alliance Master, Miao Yi, and Miao Yi brought Qi Xiuhong and the others with him and fled. Miao Yi had used the 'Brass Gong Fort Massacre' incident all those years ago to frame Gu Sanzheng and the others, causing the Sea of Constellations Demonic Beasts to hunt them down. After that, Miao Yi was forced to join forces with Gu Sanzheng and the others. In the end, they ran into Bai Ziliang, who was wielding a powerful artifact. Qi Xiuhong died in the Demon Refining Gourd, and after they managed to escape, Fairy Yue Yao rescued them. After that, Bai Ziliang led a group of Yao beasts to Skyfire Mountain, and Miao Yi sacrificed himself to lure them. Several years later, everyone thought that Miao Yi was dead. However, during the final battle of the Subjugation Crusade, they discovered that Miao Yi wasn't dead. Instead, he was with Yun Feiyang and even swapped names with Yan Beihong. After that, Miao Yi shocked everyone with his spear and was poached back to the Celestial Nation's camp by Fairy Yue Yao. Miao Yi didn't disappoint Fairy Yue Yao and extorted the cultivators of the four nations. He obtained a bunch of Geotranscendence Bangles and helped Fairy Yue Yao clinch first place in the Subjugation Crusade. He also completely messed up the rankings of the Subjugation Crusade. When he was receiving his reward at the Western Constellations Palace, Miao Yi almost lost his life because of Qi Xiuhong's corpse. However, in the end, he still managed to leave the Sea of Constellations with her …
The two of them recounted the events of those ten years, leaving the Lady Boss and the others dumbfounded. That bastard Niu Er was too amazing. He was only at the White Lotus realm, but he actually became the Alliance Master of a group of Blue Lotus cultivators. He even caused so much trouble. It was a miracle that he was able to leave the Sea of Constellations alive.
The carpenter asked, "That 'Niu Youde' from the Brass Gong Fort massacre is Niu Er?"
Pi Junzi nodded and said, "That's right. I was also a member of Brass Gong Fort in the early days. Back then, his cultivation was still at the White Lotus realm. Perhaps he was so poor that he went crazy, so he ran off to the Sea of Constellations to hunt. At that time, I was defeated by him."
Miao Yi didn't think that Pi Junzi would reveal this farfetched incident to them. If he had known, he definitely wouldn't have allowed the two of them to tell the truth no matter what. He would definitely be shocked at how brainless these two were. Did they even need to be taught what they should and shouldn't say?
However, it was precisely because they had revealed such an incident that the three of them believed that the two of them weren't lying.
"Niu Youde!" The stonemason chuckled. "No wonder he's called Niu Er now."
The carpenter clicked his tongue and said, "This brat is truly a genius with both brains and brawn. He's quite daring as well. I suspect that if it weren't for the fact that he's always bullied by us because of our cultivation, he would've torn down the entire Tempest Tavern already."
The Lady Boss asked, "That Fairy Yue Yao doesn't know Niu Er's true identity?"
Tao Yongchun replied, "I don't think so. Niu Er intentionally hid it from everyone at the time. Only a handful of people know about it."
The carpenter chuckled. "If it were me, I wouldn't dare reveal my true name either. I'm afraid of retaliation after doing so many bad things! He sure has the guts to blackmail all the cultivators of the four nations. "
The Lady Boss put down her comb and said, "You may leave. Have Niu Er accompany me for a drink."
The carpenter and stonemason exchanged glances. Bringing up this incident had indeed distracted the Lady Boss. She was now in the mood to drink with Niu Er. The two of them immediately agreed and led Pi Junzi and Tao Yongchun out.
"Drink?" In the kitchen, Miao Yi was taken aback, but he quickly agreed. However, after the carpenter left with a sly smile on his face, Miao Yi quickly dragged Pi Junzi to the side and asked him what they had said.
When he found out that even the matter of 'Niu Youde' had been revealed, he was shocked. He cursed, "Are you pigs?! Can you tell me that?! "
"Didn't you say that we'll tell you whatever you want us to ask?" Pi Junzi complained, "You said that the Lady Boss knows something. How would we know what she knows and what she doesn't? We wouldn't dare to hide it from her!"
