Dong—dong—
The morning bell rang, and the sky gradually brightened. The servants of the Chi Dragon Mansion had already brought breakfast to Xiao Yunluo and Feng Yudie early in the morning. Since Li Feng had asked them to stay in his residence, Feng Yudie took full advantage of the situation and had a whole roasted chicken delivered to her in the early morning.
Xiao Yunluo sat beside Feng Yudie, looking at her completely indifferent and unrestrained eating manners. Unable to bear it any longer, she scolded, "Who eats roasted chicken so early in the morning?"
"It's delicious."
Feng Yudie didn't care at all. Seeing Xiao Yunluo staring at her, she thought she wanted some too. After hesitating for a moment, she simply tore off her favorite chicken leg and handed it over.
"Sister Xiao, want some chicken?"
"Who wants to eat it?!"
"It's really delicious, much better than the food in the Profound Star Sect's cafeteria. The chicken skin is even sweet."
"I won't eat it!"
"Come on, just try it."
Feng Yudie directly stuffed the chicken leg into Xiao Yunluo's mouth and continued to gnaw on the remaining chicken frame without a care.
Xiao Yunluo initially didn't want to eat, but after taking a bite, she found the taste surprisingly good. She said, "I won't eat more! Don't give me anymore. I'll just eat this one leg— and make sure you finish the rest yourself, don't waste it, it's impolite."
"Hehe, of course, I'll finish it." Feng Yudie grinned foolishly and asked, "By the way, Senior Sister Xiao, do you want to go back to Du Chun City with me later?"
"Du Chun City? Why go back there?"
"Of course, it's to earn spirit stones." Feng Yudie smirked, raising her eyebrows. "Forget it, have you forgotten? When we arrived, didn't we encounter a young master who was impersonated by someone? We're going to find him and help him regain his identity."
"You're still thinking about that?"
"Why not? There's spirit stones to be earned, why not take advantage of it."
Xiao Yunluo looked at her with disdain, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and said, "With such a big incident at the Chi Dragon Mansion yesterday, you're still thinking about this? In my opinion, if you have free time, you can help Li Qianjin investigate the demonic cultivator issue."
"Help? Why not! How could I not help?"
"Then why are you going to find that so-called young master?"
"It's not conflicting~" Feng Yudie shrugged, smiling, "Besides, I can also inquire about things. Maybe we'll get information about the demonic cultivator? Will you go?"
"No."
"Then Senior Sister Xiao, if you don't go, don't wander around recklessly. If I'm not here, if you encounter a demonic cultivator, there won't be anyone to protect you."
"Who asked for your protection."
Xiao Yunluo gave her a disdainful look and retorted, "Yesterday, that was a demonic cultivator in the Core Formation stage, and it seemed to be a body cultivator. If I really encounter such a demonic cultivator, whether you're here or not, isn't it the same?"
"If I'm here, at least I can buy you some time to escape."
"You're just bragging— Most demonic cultivators practice quick cultivation techniques. In a battle of the same level, we immortal cultivators don't have an advantage. You're only at the Foundation Building stage. How would you fight a demonic cultivator in the Core Formation stage?"
"Is there anything impossible? Oh, right, Senior Sister Xiao, you probably don't know, do you?"
Xiao Yunluo tilted her head, "Don't know what?"
"As Junior Sister Pei and I reached the Peak of Qi Refining Stage, and Young Master Ye was at the Qi Refining stage, we encountered a demonic cultivator in the Late stages of Core Formation. The three of us joined forces and buried that demonic cultivator. Hmph~"
This was an unheard-of event, as Profound Star Sect had never publicly disclosed it. However, hearing that it involved Pei Lengxue and Ye Anping, Xiao Yunluo didn't doubt it. For some reason, even though it was theoretically impossible, she felt that Ye Anping might actually achieve such remarkable feats of defeating a demonic cultivator two major realms above him.
She couldn't help but mutter to herself, "So he's that formidable..."
"Yes, yes, Junior Sister Pei is certainly formidable!" Feng Yudie quickly chimed in. However, she didn't miss the chance to boast a bit about herself, rubbing her nose. "But, I also contributed a lot!"
"Oh."
Xiao Yunluo gave a perfunctory response, pondering for a moment before reminding, "With martial law in place these days, if you're going to Du Chun City, remember to tell Senior Li and have her issue you a pass. This way, you won't have trouble coming back."
Just as she spoke, there were two soft knocks at the door.
"Senior Sister Xiao, Senior Sister Feng, are you awake?"
"Junior Sister Li, why are you here?"
"I came to ask if you slept well last night. If there's anything you need, feel free to let me know, like if there are any special requirements for your beds..."
"Ah— It's okay. We are guests; just arrange it as you see fit."
"Wow~"
?
This exclamation left Xiao Yunluo completely bewildered as she turned to look at Feng Yudie.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Ah—" Feng Yudie hesitated for a moment, quickly wiped her mouth, and asked, "Junior Sister Li, who is the senior behind you? I feel a dangerous aura."
?
"Dangerous?" Xiao Yunluo didn't understand the adjective. "What kind of danger?"
"The two seniors from Profound Star Sect, I am called Wu Yue. I came here as the guard for Miss due to her investigation of demonic cultivators."
"I see..."
Feng Yudie shrugged and looked Wu Yue up and down once again.
Although Wu Yue was undoubtedly a well-endowed beauty, as Feng Yudie mentioned before, she felt a genuine threat from this person. It wasn't the skin-deep danger, but something about Wu Yue gave Feng Yudie a sense of menace.
She hesitated for a moment, then forcefully knocked her own head, waking up Xiaotian from her soul realm.
『Why are you suddenly messing with my residence?!』
"..."
Feng Yudie kept her mouth shut and signaled with her eyes toward Wu Yue.
Seeing Feng Yudie's action, Xiaotian glanced at Wu Yue, thinking she might have seen a beautiful woman and couldn't resist. However, after observing Wu Yue for a while, it suddenly felt that Feng Yudie didn't seem to have that intention.
It hesitated for a moment and immediately circled in the air, slipping into Wu Yue's storage bag and peeking inside.
After looking around, he pulled his head out with a 'plop' and informed, 『Yudie, this seems to be a spare storage bag. It's full of low-grade pills and talismans, and it doesn't look like what a Core Formation cultivator should have』
Hearing this, Feng Yudie immediately nodded her head slightly. It seemed that her intuition was correct; there was something unusual about this person.
"What's wrong?"
"Junior Sister Li, I have some questions for you..."
"Uh..."
