"Seventh Brother, Seventh Brother!"
"What is it?"
"I saw two fellow Daoists. Should I go say hello?"
"Who?"
"Two fellow Daoists we t on the road before. They were flying on swords and wearing things made by mortals, and got detained by the overseers."
Qionghua Shuiyu chuckled at this point, looking at Qionghua Yanbin, and explained, "They're not from any big family, just ordinary cultivators. Seventh Brother, you don't need to worry."
Upon hearing this, Qionghua Yanbin frowned. Such behavior clearly indicated they weren't cultivators from Xuanwei Heaven. Sword Flight, lower-level cultivators of the grand world, there was no need to interact with them.
With a single thought and a few words, he had already analyzed the backgrounds of Chen Xun and Black Bull. Such interactions were neither good for them nor for those lower-level cultivators.
"Little sister, there's no need. We're here for important matters today, not for leisure."
"Haha, why do they look so dusty and dirty? Why is that little bull lying upside down? Haha!"
Qionghua Shuiyu didn't listen at all and suddenly laughed, "Every ti I see them, they're so amusing. Seventh Brother, I'll be right back, it won't take long."
With that, she stepped into the air, quite willful, leaving the people of the Nine Dragons Mystic Gate in astonishnt.
Qionghua Yanbin also looked over from above, his expression changing slightly. How did they look like beggars with a cow... Since when did Void Refinent cultivators end up like this? It was the first ti he had seen such a sight today.
"Follow her and protect her," Qionghua Yanbin ordered with a frown. Poverty breeds evil, and he never trusted or interacted with these lower-level cultivators. "Let's go."
With that, he was the first to step into the air, and the group hurriedly followed, their eyes fixed on Qionghua Shuiyu, fearing that these two weirdos and the spirit beast might do sothing irrational.
By the Tongtian Tower, they coincidentally landed not far from Zhu Xian, who trembled all over as a massive psychological pressure descended upon him. Should he leave or stay in this situation...
Hundreds of people ford a large circle, with Qionghua Yanbin right at the center.
Zhu Xian happened to be surrounded at the edge of the circle, and he now wanted to slap himself. Why did he go talk to that black-faced cultivator!
The various beings on the outskirts slightly cupped their hands towards the cultivators of the Nine Dragons Mystic Gate and then left, not daring to provoke them.
Yet their gazes still lingered on Zhu Xian, with a hint of schadenfreude.
At this mont, Zhu Xian was shocked. Why was the girl from the Qionghua family also going to find that black-faced cultivator? What was going on?! Could there be so significant background...
He was no longer panicked, his attention drawn to the commotion in the distance, enjoying the spectacle.
By the boulder.
Chen Xun's teeth had grown back quite a bit, and though he spoke with a slight lisp, his words were now clear.
A gentle breeze blew as Qionghua Shuiyu approached them, smiling and calling out, "Chen Xun, Xin Little Bull!"
"Huh?"
"Moo?"
Chen Xun and Black Bull were startled, especially Black Bull, who quickly flipped over in shock. When did his na change? He was Xin Black Bull!
Qionghua Shuiyu covered her face and giggled, "Don't you rember ? Qionghua Shuiyu, we t under the clouds at the Azure Dragon Platform."
"So it's Miss Qionghua..."
Chen Xun cupped his hands with a smile, his gaze subtly shifting to the distance, speaking calmly, "We et again, truly a coincidence."
"Moo~" Black Bull lay on the ground, looking like he was doing nothing, lazily swishing his tail. How could he recover in just one day?
"What happened to you?" Qionghua Shuiyu's laughter never ceased, and she quickly added, "Fellow Daoist Chen, Little Bull, I'm not mocking you, I just find it interesting, no malice intended."
"No worries, no worries, we do look a bit disheveled."
Chen Xun lightly brushed his hair, which resembled a bird's nest. This tribulation was really indiscriminate, striking right at his head. "It'll be better in a few days."
He spoke with a smile, knowing the young lady ant no harm, so he was quite easygoing.
"Did you encounter a thunder tribulation at the Tongtian Tower?"
"Ah... yes!"
Chen Xun sighed, as if she had touched on a sore spot, "Old Bull and I barely survived. The Tongtian Tower is very dangerous, Miss Qionghua should be careful."
"Moo moo~~" Black Bull mustered all his strength to let out a cry, lying on the ground in agreent.
Recalling the past years, his eyes and heart were still filled with fear, truly understanding the essence of death.
They casually chatted, with Chen Xun not caring about Qionghua Shuiyu's identity, and she not caring about his. Laughter filled the air.
Qionghua Shuiyu enjoyed such conversations, not discussing the Dao or family background, just talking about trivial matters.
Especially being with such interesting people made her feel exceptionally relaxed.
After a stick of incense, she lowered her voice and surprisingly took out a bottle of healing Qi-Enhancing Pills from her storage ring, placing it in front of Black Bull's mouth. "I have so healing pills made by my family elders here, Little Bull, take them, and your mana will recover quickly."
Her words were incredibly sincere, her eyes filled with genuine kindness.
Qionghua Shuiyu then looked at Chen Xun with a bright smile, "Chen Xun, don't feel burdened. It's not charity or a gift. I really like Xin Little Bull."
Qionghua Shuiyu seed afraid of hurting their pride, as the gap in their status was like a chasm. She was always careful with her words, even hastily explaining after speaking.
Chen Xun was montarily stunned, his blackened face suddenly becoming calm, as if recalling sothing from the past. It felt as if a powerful figure stood in front of them, shouting:
"Junior Brother Bull, don't worry, I'll fight for a future for you in the outer sect. This Foundation Establishnt Pill for spirit beasts won't cost more than ten thousand contributions!"
A long-sealed mory suddenly exploded in Chen Xun's mind. After living for so many years, this was the second person willing to genuinely offer Old Bull a pill...
He intended to refuse, but inexplicably nodded, using his Mountain-axing axe to slowly stand and cupped his hands, "Thank you, Miss Qionghua, for this bottle of pills..."
But before Chen Xun could finish, a cold voice ca from afar, "Shuiyu, that's enough, co back."
Qionghua Yanbin's gaze was icy as he waved his hand, and two exquisitely patterned bottles of pills instantly appeared before Chen Xun.
These items even emitted a gentle glow, the pill bottles exuding potency, clearly of high grade.
"These two bottles of pills are for the two fellow Daoists to heal. Shuiyu is my little sister; it's not her place to act."
Qionghua Yanbin held his head high, not even glancing at them as he spoke.
This also implied another aning: the connection was severed, don't harbor any thoughts of clinging on; this was the last bit of dignity given to you.
Chen Xun frowned slightly, turning his head to look at the noble man, waving the two bottles of pills back, and calmly said, "There's no need. We didn't co here to gain anything."
"Moo!" Black Bull slowly stood up, the simplicity and calmness in his eyes fading, as he also looked in that direction.
