"..."
Drip drop.
Another drop of liquid trickled down.
But this ti, it wasn’t Spiritual Liquid; it was sweat.
His lips trembled a few tis as he stuttered in rebuttal: "I didn’t, don’t talk nonsense, I didn’t do it, don’t spread rumors, be careful or I... I’ll sue you for defamation!"
Panicked.
How did Yu Ying know? He had been out for seven or eight days before encountering the Cen siblings, and he was sure no one had followed him.
Even if he was incompetent and failed to notice, the Cen siblings couldn’t possibly not notice, right?
Especially Cen Yueyue, a Core Formation Mid-Stage cultivator with a plethora of treasures; with her strength, it was impossible not to notice, and in the entirety of Shuangfeng City, only Yu Ying, Manager Xu, and the old man working at the Immortal Pavilion had higher strength than everyone else.
Barely adding the City Lord, but these few were too preoccupied with the affairs of Xu Huoyao to have ti for tailing and tracking? Yu Ying was even bedridden due to illness every day.
"Hehehe."
Her laughter was still a standard fake laugh that was a bit eerie. She slowly began to speak as she lifted her green-yellow gradiant wide sleeve to cover her mouth.
"Rest assured, I naturally won’t talk too much, everything depends on our senior brother. Our Purple Cloud Palace, like most sects, has alliances through marriage. If elder brother really manages to lure that Little Saintess from the Southern Border, Master Liu would probably be overjoyed."
"On this journey, how many were damaged, how many died, every patrol’s route, their realms, the combat situation, I am naturally well aware."
"Not only people saw you, but they also saw those siblings. Since both your paths coincided, it was inevitable that you would et. According to the survivors from Yi Village, after you all t you no longer appeared near Yi Village."
"No one saw you in the other three directions, so naturally, you all headed south. Only that Young Master Cen is really straightforward, voluntarily taking the disaster-stricken villagers and cultivators to He Family Village before following."
"That must have delayed at least half a day. I wonder whose idea was it to send away that botherso boy?"
"Moreover, I am slightly familiar with Hou Zhongxiao, and I do recall the Cen Family scandal; it might be unpleasant for elder brother to hear this, but against a Core Formation Stage expert... you alone probably can’t handle it."
She sized up Jiang Feng, clicking her tongue in amazent.
She really didn’t expect her senior brother to be so capable; his cultivation isn’t high, but he sure is involved in quite a few romantic affairs, naturally fit to be a pretty boy and a son-in-law, plus he’s also quite bold.
No, this is called having the audacity that cos with skill.
The first ti they t, he dared to fight with the Cen Family’s young lady and young master; the second ti they t, he actually sent the young master away and both secretly ran off to have a secret rendezvous hundreds of miles away!
That’s not all; after the rendezvous, he even obtained quite a few things from that young lady; truly shaless... well, indeed quite talented.
If the Cen siblings had any slightest malicious intentions, Elder Master Liu would probably already be on his way to retrieve Jiang Feng’s corpse.
"Ah, hahaha, Junior Sister really has insightful eyes, we just happened to travel together. I was looking for the source of the Gu Poison, she was dealing with a traitor in her family, we just, just happened to walk a segnt of the road together."
Sweat was still dripping, not stopping.
He realized he had absolutely no privacy in front of this madwoman.
Damn control freak!
Yet, Yu Ying naturally ignored soone’s expression as if he had eaten shit, rely sipping hot water and slowly continuing, "After returning to Shuangfeng City, besides seeking Xu Fu, elder brother also went to a dicine shop to consult with several Gu Technique masters from the Southern Border, showing them a few items."
"Elder brother, although you spent a lot of ti secretly eting with the Southern Border Little Saintess, was still clear-headed enough to know that so things shouldn’t be casually taken, so things shouldn’t be casually eaten."
"Unfortunately, those old predecessors, although high in seniority and broad in knowledge, are not powerful cultivators; they devote all their energy to studying Gu Techniques and dicine."
"They naturally couldn’t provide any answers, especially since you couldn’t possibly reveal the truth to them."
Leaving those words behind, Yu Ying then flipped her palm, and the lute reappeared in her embrace.
Caressing the strings as if caressing her own child, the contented deanor made Jiang Feng feel an urge to kick this woman.
He now understood why so few in Fengzhou liked Yu Ying’s peculiar character; her posture wasn’t pride nor an unwillingness to assist but, on the contrary, she was eager to help.
It was just her way...
"I know all about your matters, I also clearly understand your predicant, but I just want to tease you a bit, you better beg nicely, and if I’m in a good mood, I’ll help."
That was probably the gist of it, and Yu Ying’s words weren’t finished, the latter half was very likely.
"They don’t know, but with my ability, of course, I can recognize it."
Noticing the woman’s mocking expression, he trembled a bit but still sighed. This woman’s mischief was kind of terrifying.
Flipping his hand, he first pushed the Red Jade Bottle over.
"If you would please, Sister! Check it!"
The last two words were bitten off very distinctly.
His lips crazily curled upward, and this ti, Yu Ying’s smile was no longer fake; the smile that erged was indeed quite beautiful, suppressing her amusent as she gently weighed the Red Jade Bottle in her hand.
Removing the lid, imdiately the room filled with a scorching fragrance; even a single sniff could invigorate soone, even Jiang Feng, who knew nothing about Elixirs, could understand that the quality was likely far beyond his imagination.
