Chapter 217 She always liked to play tricks
Sunset.
The sunset on the horizon was magnificent and dazzling.
Its beauty is beyond words.
Vast expanses of fiery clouds spread out, their golden rays bathing the small town.
In the city, everyone's face was filled with a happy smile.
Or perhaps they are young couples walking together.
Or it could be a large family, with several members traveling together.
The atmosphere in the city was still cheerful and pleasant, peaceful and harmonious.
On the street, at a stall selling candied hawthorns.
Two figures.
The two held hands.
The incomparably beautiful woman held a candied hawthorn in her hand, while gently squeezing the man's large hand with her other hand.
She traced the lines on his palm.
I gently scratched it twice.
"What are you doing? Paying the bill."
Xu Nian looked over helplessly.
Wu Qing looked at him with a smile, "I like you, Senior Brother!"
"Qinghuan, I feel like you're really possessed today, constantly saying those words, it's really..."
"So what? Can't I even say what I want to say? It's nothing, these are just my true feelings."
"Okay, okay, okay, whatever you say, hurry up and eat."
My junior sister really loves candied hawthorns.
I ate a lot that day.
Around noon, the two went to a restaurant.
Mingming ordered a whole table of dishes.
But I didn't eat much.
Xu Nian ate all by herself.
I put it directly into the storage bag afterwards.
I have no idea what this guy was thinking.
At the same time, it also started at noon.
He kept staring at himself, staring non-stop.
This made Xu Nian wonder if there was something on her face.
Let her watch it endlessly.
Until now, eating candied hawthorn has finally relieved me a lot.
All that attention was diverted to the candied hawthorn.
The two strolled hand in hand through the city.
Xu Nian felt somewhat uncomfortable.
"Qinghuan, do we really have to hold hands?"
"hold head high."
"Can't you just let go?"
"If you let go, what if I get lost? What if I get kidnapped? Can you bear to do that?"
What is she saying?!
Does she even know what she's saying?
Xu's thoughts are as big as an ox.
I just felt that Wu Qinghuan had started to stop speaking like a human.
She is a disciple of the Sword Sect, Xiao Qingshan, and a direct disciple of Master Qingyue.
A Nascent Soul stage cultivator.
This level of skill is considered high-level within the Sword Sect.
Those at the Nascent Soul stage are considered the backbone of a sect.
The Nascent Soul stage is considered elite, top-tier among elders.
They are even capable of serving as the heads of some branches.
And what did Wu Qinghuan just say?
Afraid, afraid of getting lost?
Lost...
Ha ha…
If a Nascent Soul cultivator were to condense their divine sense and expand their range of divine awareness, it would be approximately three thousand miles.
This range of divine sense... how could one possibly get lost?
As for what she said, she was afraid of being kidnapped.
Who's crazy! Daring to kidnap a top expert who has awakened the Daoist power and whose true combat strength is comparable to the Void Refining Realm?
It's not that Xu Nian exaggerated.
Rather, it is Wu Qinghuan's true fighting strength that is truly terrifying.
If Xu Nian awakens the dual Dao essence himself.
She had already entered the Nascent Soul stage at a young age, and now she was several minor realms ahead of her.
At the same time, with the support of a strong constitution, blood and qi are constantly replenished, and the vital energy is vigorous and abundant.
It's really hard to say... if he and Wu Qinghuan were to fight, who would have the last laugh?
Oh, even if Wu Qinghuan loses, this little devil will still stubbornly keep smiling.
So, in that case, Wu Qinghuan will still have the last laugh.
After all, she has always liked to cheat.
Even so, Xu Nian couldn't help but complain.
"Whoever tries to kidnap you, they probably won't be able to afford to support you."
"What are you saying!" Wu Qinghuan's cheeks turned bright red. "I, I eat very little! Okay! It's clearly Third Senior Sister and that little fox who eat a lot! They can't afford to feed them!"
"Yes Yes Yes."
"What do you mean 'yes, yes, yes'? That's clearly how it is. I can't possibly eat that much. I only eat a little each time, just to taste it."
Suddenly, Xu Nian remembered the image of Qinghuan eating flower cakes on the bed.
I told her not to eat in bed like that.
After all, those kinds of shortbreads have too many crumbs.
But the wicked Xiao Qinghuan still ate it.
She lay on the bed, swinging her fair little feet.
I ate a whole bed sheet.
In the end, she cleaned it up herself.
"Qinghuan is a foodie too."
"I'm not!" Wu Qinghuan retorted, then suddenly paused, scratching her cheek. "But if you're talking about a foodie, then I guess I am."
"what?"
The cunning and ruthless tyrant's rapid changes left Xu Nian somewhat bewildered.
What was she thinking of?
Why were you so unwilling, unhappy, and reluctant just now?
Are you just going to accept it like this now?
Xu Nian vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
Especially when I saw the strange look in my junior sister's eyes.
He thought for a moment, then his pupils suddenly contracted.
His expression also became strange.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
He coughed violently a few times.
Xu Nian didn't say much.
I just think my junior sister is such a filthy little thing.
Hopeless.
Totally hopeless.
I really...I really don't want to talk to her!
A girl like you! How could you...
Ugh…
My pure and lovely Qinghuan will never come back.
This guy in front of me has completely let loose and doesn't care about his image at all.
It's over, completely over.
Xu Nian felt a pang of regret and emotion.
The two of them tacitly agreed not to say anything more.
Walking hand in hand on the street.
Eating candied hawthorn.
Then I found two shops with decent materials.
I bought Xu Nian's close-fitting shirt.
He and a certain Qinghuan's undergarments.
Later, as they walked, the two suddenly saw a familiar figure.
The two looked at each other.
They both noticed the surprise and astonishment in each other's eyes.
"Wow, they really do have stores everywhere..."
"Wow, there are so many of these stores..."
Both the senior and junior disciples were extremely shocked.
I never expected to find an ancient city so easily.
Then you'll meet that person.
Come to think of it, it seems that the two of them run into her every time they go down the mountain.
This is really a coincidence.
Walking over, I saw the woman talking to the two men.
"We are... senior sister and junior brother, not... Daoist couple. We just... came to the wrong place."
The somewhat reserved young man said.
The woman beside him nodded in agreement.
"Yes, that's it. We came to the wrong place. We didn't come here to buy anything."
The woman lying in the rocking chair waved her hand.
Nodding, he slowly said, "Alright, if you want to come again, come visit again next time. My shops are all around here, hehe, maybe we'll run into each other again."
"No, no way! We're not buying these things! Come on, junior brother!"
"Ah, yes, senior sister."
The two blushed deeply and turned to leave.
He left without looking back.
Xu Nian and Wu Qinghuan stood not far away and saw this scene.
Both of them had somewhat strange expressions.
"Hmm, why do I feel like I've seen this scene somewhere before?" Wu Qinghuan complained.
She would have been fine if she hadn't spoken, but after she did, Xu Nian felt a little awkward.
I always felt that these two people were very similar to myself and my junior sister back then.
However, they were senior and junior brothers back then.
These two are a senior female student and a junior male student.
Xu Nian suddenly understood how the female boss had viewed her and Qing Huan back then.
It's like the feeling of a senior looking at a junior.
I just found them adorable, cute, fun, and interesting.
"Oh, here we go again?"
Just as Xu Nian and Wu Qinghuan were looking in the direction the two had left.
The proprietress in the rocking chair also noticed this.
I squinted at it and looked at it, somewhat disappointed.
"I thought you two might be developing something, but it's still like this."
"Development? What development..."
Xu Nian's words were cut short as she spoke.
I understand what the female boss means.
So that's what they were talking about...
How could that be...?
He could not laugh or cry.
The important thing right now is cultivation, proper cultivation.
As for adding more people to the family, that will have to wait until later.
That's for the future, how can we talk about it now...
"What are you looking for this time? You two have come at just the right time. We just got a lot of new stock, all of them are very stylish. Come in and take a look."
"No, no..." Xu Nian waved her hand, showing no intention of going in.
Turning around to look at Wu Qinghuan, he found that the spot where she had just been was long gone.
"Hey, I'm such a big Qinghuan."
Xu Nian looked around.
His eyes widened as he realized that Wu Qinghuan had already reached the door.
One foot has already stepped in.
When did it get so fast!
That was incredibly fast!
And you should at least tell yourself!
That speed is just too outrageous!
At this moment, Qinghuan seemed like a lone wolf in the forest who had spotted its prey.
Xu Nian felt a little embarrassed.
I jogged over and hurried to catch up.
He followed behind his wife.
"Qinghuan, you...you still want to buy more?"
"Let's buy some."
"Well, let's just forget about it."
"Senior brother, you..." Wu Qinghuan stopped and turned around, her eyes gleaming with a deep light, "You clearly like it very much, but you're too embarrassed to say it. You're really not being honest."
"Who! Who's not being honest!"
Xu Nian blushed furiously.
This guy, why is he spreading rumors out of thin air?
Is there any evidence?
Such slanderous accusations—do you have any evidence?
How could you ruin someone's reputation like this!
"I don't!"
"Oh yes, oh yes, yes, okay, I like it, alright?"
"Anyway, it has nothing to do with me..."
Some people are still being stubborn.
Wu Qinghuan pursed her lips and pouted.
He pulled Xu Nian's sleeve and led her inside.
"Yes, yes, yes, you don't like it, but I do. I like it. Then I'll trouble you, senior brother, to help Qinghuan choose. Qinghuan wants to see what you like."
"I like...no, I don't like it!"
Xu Nian felt like she was being tricked into revealing information.
He fell silent.
Wu Qinghuan looked at him, thought for a moment, and spoke again.
"You help me choose, that's all."
"Then...okay."
Someone reluctantly agreed.
Then they happily began selecting items.
Following behind Xu Nian, the little devil's lips curled up in a smile.
He was somewhat pleased with himself.
Sure enough, they said no, but their actions spoke louder than words.
This is my husband.
Although a certain special constitution has been awakened.
But actually…
It's still quite easy to handle!
The proprietress outside the house did not follow them inside this time.
Instead, he remained lying in the rocking chair.
He put his hands under his head and stared at the sky listlessly.
He crossed his legs.
He would occasionally let out a long yawn.
I'm getting more and more bored.
The two young friends weren't familiar with the place the last few times, so I helped them find it myself.
By now, the two of them were quite adept at it.
There's absolutely no need for me to follow along.
Going there by yourself would only cause trouble.
She wouldn't do something so offensive.
About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn has passed.
The two finally came out.
Xu Nian gave him two spirit stones directly.
The proprietress was very generous.
It was thrown back.
"Regular customers get their meals for free."
The two were quite surprised.
Last time, I called her "sister" and got the meal for free.
Is it free again this time?
These clothes aren't particularly expensive, but they still cost two spirit stones.
I don't know if the proprietress is only waiving my order.
I still met people I felt a connection with.
One order costs two spirit stones, ten orders cost twenty spirit stones.
If we get 30 to 50 orders a day...
The losses over this past month have been devastating.
Is this a business venture or a charity?
Nobody uses this kind of thing for charity.
Xu Nian muttered to herself.
"Thank you very much!"
"Go ahead, go ahead, we always run into you two whenever we change places, our fate is just too great."
That's definitely true...
If it weren't for the fact that the proprietress didn't have much spiritual energy fluctuation,
Xu Nian even suspected that she was a Dao Integration expert who controlled some kind of clone.
In the world of cultivation, there are countless paths to enlightenment.
Each Dao-merging expert comprehends different Dao essences, resulting in different effects of their Dao Heart.
Perhaps they were both comprehending the same Dao.
However, the effects displayed when applying the laws of Dao may differ.
Even though they are all about killing and conquest, this kind of Dao essence enhances combat power.
Some people simply enhance their own Qi and blood.
Some people use divine power to enhance their spiritual power.
There are also those who are directly suppressed, like Xu Nian.
Both are methods of attack and destruction, but their effects are different.
There are countless ways to achieve the ability to create multiple clones.
That's right, you'll run into this female boss whenever you go down the mountain with Qinghuan.
No matter which small town you go to, go to this kind of shop.
You can see that familiar figure everywhere.
Xu Nian had long suspected that she was a Dao Integration Realm expert.
Or perhaps it is a Dao Integration Realm cultivator who has mastered a special Dao essence.
It can split itself to complete the division of its soul.
Create a large number of clones, and then place the clones in each store.
However, this idea did not last long.
Xu Nian rejected it.
Because, it doesn't make sense.
If she is truly such a top-tier expert, then what is her purpose in doing this?
It's obviously pointless.
Therefore, all the previous coincidences were probably just coincidences.
Just like the landlady said.
These people are really destined to meet; they seem to bump into each other no matter where they go.
I wonder if I'll ever encounter it again when I visit other ancient cities.
"Speaking of which, she really is a rich woman."
Wu Qinghuan suddenly spoke up.
Xu Nian paused for a moment, then nodded.
"Yes, one shop only earns one or two spirit stones per order. If there are ten or twenty shops, how many spirit stones would that be in a day, a month, a year..."
"Speaking of which, your senior sister is also a rich woman."
"Senior sister? Which senior sister?"
Xu Nian was stunned for a moment.
He sensed something was off about Wu Qinghuan's gaze.
Now I know who she was talking about.
They looked at her as if she were an idiot.
"Wu Qinghuan, you're really bored, aren't you? You're looking for trouble again."
"Hehe, how about it, how about you punish me?"
Xu Nian rolled her eyes in annoyance and ignored her.
