Chapter 127: Chapter 125: Sect Leader: I Don’t Believe It!
Sect Leader Su Xihe’s calm demeanor left Liu Zixiao stunned.
Clearly, last time she had been quite worried, but now she’s so composed?!
Could it be, the Sect Leader has already discovered the truth?
Just as she was about to ask, Su Xihe casually threw out a question, "Do you know where Xiyue went?"
This..."
Liu Zixiao hesitated, unsure, as she didn’t even know when Su Xiyue left, let alone where she went.
"However, Xiyue should still be in the city."
She stated her reasoning, as the situation was tense and the city array hadn’t been lifted; if Su Xiyue wanted to leave the city, she surely wouldn’t have done it silently.
"In the city?!"
Su Xihe was rather taken aback.
No, that’s not right.
How could the opportunity be within the city?!
If it were inside, how could the resilient Su Xiyue be shouting herself hoarse without making a sound?!
This doesn’t make sense.
Moreover, according to her speculation, the opportunity should be related to the Ruins Rift.
"Last night, after noticing Xiyue wasn’t in her room, I kept watching and just happened to see... she seemed to be coming out of a market."
As a Golden Core Cultivator, perceiving a Loose Cultivator City was not beyond her capabilities.
Of course, with Su Xiyue’s body technique, she only saw a rough location.
"Market?"
Su Xihe fell into contemplation.
What could there be in a Loose Cultivator City’s market that Su Xiyue could be interested in?!
And obviously, it wasn’t just once or twice.
She went at night, stayed out all night, and even shouted herself hoarse.
It’s baffling, truly baffling.
Acquired a Pill Formula and concocted a special elixir?
Or perhaps some kind of medicated bath...
Various guesses flickered in Su Xihe’s mind, but none could be confirmed.
"Sect Leader, do you think... could Xiyue have someone dear to her?!"
Liu Zixiao suddenly suggested, but before she could finish, Su Xihe harshly interrupted, "Do not speak nonsense; you know Xiyue’s disposition, don’t you?"
Indeed, they were probably the ones who understood Su Xiyue best in the world.
Her heart is like an ancient well, wholly devoted to cultivation, entirely ignorant of the sentiments between men and women; how could she let herself fall into such a whirlpool?
"But don’t you think Xiyue’s behavior resembles... nighttime meetings with a lover?"
Liu Zixiao gently pursed her lips, softly arguing.
This statement left Su Xihe speechless, even though her initial certainty seemed slightly shaken.
She too had not ruled out suspicions!
But it was precisely because she knew Su Xiyue deeply that she was certain such a thing could not happen.
Her sister wasn’t adept at expressing her feelings.
Even with herself, throughout the year there were hardly any verbal exchanges, yet in her actions, Su Xiyue constantly considered her older sister.
A classic case of cold exterior, warm interior.
Even if she met someone she admired, she wouldn’t fall in so quickly, right?
Moreover, actively seeking them out at night – that’s just absurd!
This, compared to Su Xiyue suddenly having a Dao Bone, is even harder for Su Xihe to believe.
"Didn’t you say Xiyue was always under your watch, how could she suddenly have a lover?"
"Uh."
Liu Zixiao was momentarily dazed, then mumbled, "That’s true as well."
"Keep a close eye on Xiyue’s movements!"
Su Xihe’s words to her indicated absolute trust in Liu Zixiao.
...
Danxin Herb Hall.
Qin Yu initially wished to cozy up to his beautiful master’s wife, but Lin Shuishui sleepily rubbed her eyes and walked in.
"Brother-in-law, I’m hungry..."
It could be said, Lin Shuishui was surely the most self-disciplined member of the household.
She went to sleep at night.
And got up at dawn.
"Go out first, I’ll get up and make it for you."
Right now, Qin Yu was a bit inconvenienced to get out of bed.
"No way."
Lin Shuishui puckered her small mouth and leaned closer to him, trying to hug his neck.
Having just woken up, she was naturally in a thin nightgown; because of her reclining posture, it had opened a bit, although fully dressed, from Qin Yu’s angle...
It was quite mesmerizing.
"Get up if you don’t want to starve!"
Qin Yu glared at her irritably; this girl was getting more and more reckless, increasingly treating him as an insider!
"Then I want to eat Immortal Chicken!"
Lin Shuishui started negotiating.
So-called Immortal Chicken was actually Beggar’s Chicken, but in this world, Qin Yu simply changed the name.
Ever since trying it once, the little girl grew fond of it, just thinking about it made her drool.
No choice.
Early in the morning, Qin Yu had no choice but to exert some effort.
Since she slept early, Yin Qinghe and the others woke up smelling the aroma, finding it peculiar that Qin Yu seemed to know a bit about everything, even cooking, with so much variety.
After the meal.
They were supposed to go about their business, but Qin Yu sat without moving. Yin Qinghe glanced at him, then asked, "Is there something you want to say?"
She knew full well that last night, this rebellious disciple had gone out again!
Upon hearing this, Lin Qianqian and the others also looked at Qin Yu.
"There is one matter."
Qin Yu nodded, then lightly pinched Zhao Mengli’s delicate nose, "We might need to leave Lin Xian City!"
"Leaving already, not waiting for a month?"
Zhao Mengli asked in confusion.
Actually, she didn’t know why Qin Yu set such an inexplicable timeline.
Could it have some special meaning?
Yet Yin Qinghe seemed to have realized something... it seemed Qin Yu had chosen to go to the Immortal Sect.
Wait a moment.
He said... we?!
Yin Qinghe looked at him in astonishment.
In fact, she and Zhao Mengli could both join Cyan Mountain Sect, but if they left, who would take care of Lin Qianqian and her sister?!
"So brother-in-law, where are we going?" Lin Shuishui, who had been sitting beside him, asked.
"Cyan Mountain Sect!"
"Going to Cyan Mountain Sect?!"
Upon hearing this, except for Yin Qinghe, the other three women showed signs of shock and disbelief.
"Is it true, brother-in-law? Can my sister and I also enter the Immortal Sect?!"
Lin Shuishui’s eyes sparkled with incredulous light.
For her and her sister, the Immortal Sect was akin to a majestic mountain high above the clouds, unreachable. They knew their talent was mediocre, their root bone ordinary, lacking even the qualifications to look up to its heights.
Let alone being able to enter the Immortal Sect.
Qin Yu smiled gently, his fingertips brushing across Lin Shuishui’s porcelain-like cheek, with a hint of indulgence: "Indeed, how could I joke with you about such things."
"That’s great, we can go to the Immortal Sect."
Receiving Qin Yu’s confirmation, Lin Shuishui immediately danced with joy, clinging to Qin Yu.
’Smooch’
In her excitement, she gave Qin Yu a strong kiss on the cheek.
"Wow, junior brother, can we all go together?!" Zhao Mengli wasn’t much different from Lin Shuishui, both noisily clamoring in Qin Yu’s ear non-stop.
