Chapter 11: Please go slowly, I won't see you off!

  "Do you want to scare people to death?" Cold Snow was somewhat speechless, looking at the man who suddenly appeared, with a slightly unpleasant tone. However, in her heart, she couldn't help but feel a little excited and think, "Don't tell others that I'm here?" Then what's the point of sneaking around like this?

  "They can't see me, nor can they hear me speak." He said with some complacency, his deep blue eyes full of playful and teasing expression.

  But they can hear me speaking! said Leng Ruoxue.

  "Xue Er, who are you talking to?" As expected, Leng Qing Tian and the others were looking at Leng Ruo Xue with puzzled faces, each of their faces filled with question marks.

  "Ah! I was talking to the demon! Do you want to scare me to death?" Leng Ruo Xue explained with some guilt, and frequently gave the demon a meaningful glance.

  "I didn't mean to." The demon understood and hastily said, glancing at the white shadow standing beside them like a "ghost".

  "What's wrong with you two? It seems strange?" said the old man with a bad premonition.

  "He just scared me." Leng Ruoxue said somewhat helplessly, shifting the blame onto Yougui.

  "Xue Er, it's not like I did it on purpose, why are you still remembering?" The demon's black and shiny eyes sparkled with tears, saying in a very wronged tone, waa... Does this count as taking the blame for someone else?!

  "It can't be like this anymore." Leng Ruoxue glanced at Yao Miao, but was actually speaking to Wu Shuo.

  "Little girl, actually, you can transmit sound with me." The kind-hearted reminder said.

  "Why didn't you say so earlier?" Cold Snow transmitted, somewhat angrily. In her opinion, this guy was deliberately hiding the fact that he could transmit sound and then scared her, humph!

  "You didn't ask." Wu said innocently, shrugging his shoulders and speaking in a wronged tone.

  “……”

  Leng Ruo Xue was indeed very weak, and this had become her fault. Alas! Since you could transmit sound, why did you suddenly start speaking? And her response was only a conditioned reflex.

  "I also want to eat something." Watching those foods, drooling, wow... it's been a long time since I last ate.

  "Can you eat?" Cold Snow looked up and down at Wu, her mind full of doubts. If he ate something, wouldn't it just leak out?

  "Of course, I can. However, it's been a long time since I've eaten anything, and the food at Xuan Shi Gong Hui is getting harder to swallow." Wu said with an expression of great dissatisfaction, then directly stretched out his hand to grab some roasted meat.

  "You can't eat now, wait until we're done." Leng Ruo Xue hastily stopped Wu's action and transmitted her voice.

  "Why?" she asked in puzzlement.

  "Either you show up and let everyone see you, or you wait for us to finish eating before you eat." Lan Ruo Xue transmitted her voice, giving the mysterious man two options!

  "I don't want others to see me now." Wu thought for a moment, and said with some difficulty.

  "You just wait until we're done eating, you go ahead and eat!" Leng Ruoxue said without giving him a chance to refuse, she didn't want Grandfather and the others to be scared by this man who came out of nowhere.

  "Alas! Fine!" He took a lingering look at the delicious food on the table and floated away.

  After lunch, Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jie directly returned to their room.

  "Xue Er, what did that guy say to you?" The two sat on the bed, and Yao Jiao asked with some curiosity.

  "He wanted something to eat, I gave him two options." Leng Ruo Xue simply explained, then directly lay down on the bed, half-closing her eyes for a short rest.

  "Oh! Xue Er, you've wronged me today! You say, how are you going to make it up to me?" The demon's charming smile was full of anticipation.

  "Hmm! I'm going to take a nap, just owe it for now!" Leng Ruoxue yawned and said.

  "Xue Er, you owe me a lot of compensation already!" The demon smiled slyly and reminded her.

  "En en, I'll pay it back slowly later." Leng Ruoxue nodded and guaranteed, "Don't worry about the debt, there's plenty of time!"

  "What compensation? How will you pay?" a curious voice cut in awkwardly.

  "Are you sure you're not a ghost?" Cold Snow's suspicious gaze kept sizing up Wu, this guy always appears out of nowhere!

  "Not me, I'm still alive." He said with a mouthful of chicken leg, very affirmative.

  "Can't you just not appear suddenly?" The demon said with a headache, obviously an energy body, but it made itself look like a 'ghost', really worrying people to death!

  "This is my room! Do I still need to knock on the door when entering my own room?" he asked back, unable to bear it.

  "Now it's ours, so you have to knock on the door before coming in." The demon said very seriously.

  "Oh!" he responded and floated out, after knocking on the door, he floated back in.

  "There's a generation gap between him and me, you talk to him, I'm going to take a nap." Lan Ruoxue sighed, her voice very weak, and after finishing speaking, she directly closed her eyes.

  "Play by yourself! Don't disturb us." The demoniac said, then lay down beside Cold-as-Snow and pulled her into his own embrace, ignoring the 'ghost' altogether.

  "Oh!" Without looking at them, she casually found a seat and sat down, eating her food while daydreaming.

  After a long time.

  "Are you awake?" Wu asked, stretching his head in front of Leng Ruo Xue's face.

  Leng Ruo Xue woke up to find a handsome face suddenly appearing in front of her, and for a moment she was dazed. Instinctively, she threw a punch, but it went through his body. It wasn't until then that she truly came to and remembered the man's identity.

  "Don't scare people like that all of a sudden, okay?!" Leng Ruo Xue growled in annoyance.

  "I... I just wanted to say hello to you!" said with a hint of grievance, "Hmph... why is this little girl so fierce?!"

  "You suddenly appeared and scared me to death." Ling Ruo Xue's forehead was dripping with cold sweat, she said weakly. She found that she really couldn't get along with this man who didn't admit he was a ghost but liked to appear and disappear like a 'ghost'. Hmm! I guess it's because of the generation gap!

  "Oh, but is your courage really so small?" she asked with some doubt.

  "No, I won't be able to take it if you keep appearing and disappearing like a ghost." Leng Ruoxue said bluntly.

  "Then I'll just follow you guys from now on!" he said, as if he had made a major decision.

  "Huh? You want to follow us?" Cold-as-Snow's forehead slid down several black lines, wooo... she didn't mean it that way!

  "Exactly! This way you won't despise me and say I'm like a 'ghost'." He said with a hint of resentment, looking at Leng Ruoxue without any grievance.

  "That's not what I meant, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean for you to follow us." Leng Ruoxue lowered her voice as much as possible, it was really inconvenient to have a 'ghost' following them around.

  "Alas! I knew it, you still despise me, waaah..." Before she could finish speaking, tears welled up in those deep blue eyes that seemed like the ocean...

  "Ah! You're not going to cry, are you?!" Lan Xue's head started hurting again. When did this guy learn this trick?!

  "I've been lonely for thousands of years, woe...no one to accompany me, no one to love me, a solitary figure drifting in the world." He said with a pitiful tone, his eyes misty with tears.

  "Xue Er, let him follow!" At this time, the demon opened his eyes and said.

  "Oh, okay!" Leng Ruo Xue replied, but her gaze was somewhat suspicious as she looked at the demon, it was really strange that the demon didn't eat Wu's vinegar, this was truly unthinkable.

  "Xue Er, why are you looking at me like that?" The demon's forehead dripped with two drops of cold sweat. Alas! Looking at Xue Er's expression, he knew what she was thinking. However, the reason he agreed to let Wu stay behind was only because he thought this person might be helpful to Xue Er in the future.

  "It's nothing." Leng Ruo Xue hastily said with some embarrassment.

  "Xue'er, let's go take a stroll around Xianyang City!" The demon smiled lightly and said, not planning to expose her.

  "Good." Lan'er nodded calmly in response.

  "I'll go with you and be your guide." Wu said hastily.

  Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jiao got up from the bed, simply washed their faces, and greeted Leng Qing Tian and others. The two 'ghosts' went to stroll around Xiao Yao City.

  "Nowadays, the city of Xiangyang is getting more and more desolate." Walking on the main street, he transmitted his voice to the two people without any emotion, with a hint of sadness on his extremely handsome face.

  "Is that so?" Leng Ruoxue replied with a mixture of doubt and skepticism. She had been on the continent of Haotian for too short a time, and hadn't visited many cities, so she wasn't quite clear about what was different between the desolate lands and the three major main cities. However, Xiangyang City should be considered one of the most prosperous cities she had visited.

  "The current Xiangyang City is completely different from what it was thousands of years ago." said Wu.

  "Thousands of years ago?" Leng Ruoxue's eyes looked at Wu with a hint of strangeness, was this guy still an immortal?

  "Just as you thought, I have indeed lived for several thousand years." Wu Danran explained calmly.

  "Hmm, as expected, an old undead." Lan said calmly.

  "Ah! I'm a half-dead old immortal." he said nonchalantly.

  "None, where are you taking us?" asked Leng Ruoxue with some curiosity. Since they left the Xuan Master's place, Wu had always been leading the way.

  "I want you all to accompany me to see an old friend first." Wu Dan said faintly.

  "Your old friend? Is he also an immortal?" asked Leng Ruoxue.

  "Yes! However, it was injured and has been asleep all along." It's a very sad path.

  "Don't tell me it's your beast?" Leng Ruoxue guessed, generally speaking, only beasts liked to use sleep to heal their wounds.

  "Really clever, you're right, it's my beast pet and also my most important partner."

  "Where is it now?" Cold Snow's face was full of curiosity.

  "Right below here." As he spoke, Wu had already brought Leng Xue and Yao Jiao to the back mountain of the Mystic Master Guild, pointing at a stream on the back mountain.

  "It seems to be very deep here?" Leng Ruoxue looked down at the mountain stream, but she couldn't see the situation below the mountain stream at all. Almost the entire mountain stream was shrouded in thick fog.

  "Hmm, the fog here is all toxic, dare you go down with me?" Wu looked at the two of them and asked with a faint smile.

  "There's nothing to be afraid of." The two, Yaoni and Leng Ruo Xue, said in unison.

  "Let's go!" He enveloped the two of them with his own mysterious power and took them down into the mountain valley.

  "It's so cold here." Although she had the mysterious power of Wu protecting her, Cold-as-Snow still felt a chill run down her spine.

  "Don't be afraid, I'm here." The demoniac hugged Ruo Xue tightly into his own arms and comforted her.

  "Little girl, your strength is too low. If I have the chance, I'll have to give you special training." The unfathomable blue eyes lightly swept over the two of them and said.

  "Special training?" Leng Ruoxue was speechless. This old man who refused to die actually wanted to give her special training, as if this had always been her specialty!

  "Hmm, your strength is too low." Musou said with a serious expression, crossing his arms over his chest.

  "My current strength is just enough to participate in the Xuan Shi Guild's competition." Leng Ruo Xue explained calmly, although she didn't think she needed special training, but she was very curious about how they would train her.

  "With me here, you don't have to participate in the competition anymore." Dao said with full confidence.

  "No way, I'm definitely going to participate in the competition." said Leng Ruoxue with a firm determination.

  "Why? Little girl, Master Xuan will definitely be the president, and he's not as fierce as me!" Wu reminded.

  "Of course it's for the money, I'm short of cash." Lan Ruoxue said somewhat pragmatically.

  “……”

  "Is it just for this reason?" Wu Zhen was at a loss for words, as in thousands of years, he had never seen a Daoist who wanted to participate in the competition for this reason.

  "Or what?" asked Leng Ruoxue, humph! If it weren't for the money, she wouldn't bother participating in this broken competition. Because, in her opinion, the internal affairs of the Xuan Shi Gong Hui were truly chaotic, and such a place wasn't even worth her attention.

  "For the future or status, these are all okay! No master would participate in a competition held by the guild for money." He let out a soft sigh and said with some helplessness, "Alas, this girl's way of thinking is truly one of a kind!"

  "That's someone else, I'm just in it for the money." Leng Ruo Xue said with some pride, heh heh, her goal is really clear!

  "Girl, are you really that short of money?" he asked with some doubt.

  "Of course, also, can you not call me 'girl' (丫头), although you're an old codger, but looking at you, you don't seem much older than me, calling me 'girl' makes me feel strange." Leng Ruoxue somewhat helplessly requested.

  "What should I call you?" she asked with unwavering bright blue eyes.

  "You can call me Xue Er, just like Grandpa and them, or Ruo Xue." said Leng Ruo Xue after some thought.

  "Alright then, I'll call you Xue'er from now on." Wu said with a thoughtful expression, supporting his cheek with one hand.

  Leng Ruo Xue nodded slightly.

  "Xue Er, we've reached the bottom of the valley." The demon reminded her.

  "Follow me." Arriving at their destination, Wu Hui returned his own spiritual energy and said to both of them.

  Two people followed Wu, arriving at the entrance of a stone cave.

  "It's here." He said, pointing at the stone cave, while his hands kept casting various spells...

  A moment later, the stone door automatically opened apart.

  Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jiao walked into the stone cave together...

  This stone cave is very spacious inside, and the crystal stones inlaid on the stone walls of the cave are a pale blue color, shining with soft light, making the water attribute spiritual energy inside the cave very rich.

  After passing through a stone gate, I finally arrived at a larger stone chamber.

  In this stone room, there was only a huge bed made of cold jade. On the bed lay a massive beast with an icy blue body covered in thick scales, and long fur growing from the gaps between them. On its head was a single horn as white as jade, making it look powerful and beautiful. But... could this be a Qilin?

  "Master, it's an Ice Qilin." Feng Zhan's voice echoed in Leng Ruo Xue's heart.

  "Are you sure? How can this world have a Qilin?" Ling Yu's face was full of question marks.

  "Master, I suspect it's like me, exiled to this realm." Feng Zhan speculated.

  Leng Ruo Xue nodded slightly after hearing Feng Zhan's words, then turned her gaze to Wu and asked: "Is it your beast?"

  "However, it was heavily injured, so for thousands of years, it has been sleeping." said the sorrowful Dao.

  "What can wake it up then?" asked Leng Ruo Xue with a hint of curiosity.

  "It's not easy to save it, and for thousands of years, I've collected a lot of medicinal materials, but unfortunately, I couldn't find an alchemist who can refine the kind of elixir I need." Wu Wei said helplessly.

  "What kind of pill do you need?" asked Leng Ruoxue with great interest, could it be that the entire Alchemist Association couldn't find such an alchemist?

  "Bing Xuan Dan." Wu Qing said softly, his deep blue eyes were gentle as he gazed at Bing Qilin lying on the icy jade bed.

  "Ah!" Leng Ruo Xue looked at Wu, and those eyes that seemed to be staring at the person in her heart made her start to think wildly. Could it be... between this master and beast...

  "Little girl, you're daydreaming again, it's not what you think." Wu said, looking at the cold expression of Xue.

  "Oh!" Leng Ruo Xue's face was frozen in embarrassment, she had been caught red-handed. Was the expression on her face really that obvious? And to make matters worse, that dead demon actually dared to sneak a smile...

  "Hmm, Xue Er, why did you pinch me!" The demon looked at Leng Ruo Xue with a wronged expression, Humph... what does he have to do with anything! Why is it always him who gets hurt!

  "Who made you smile?" Leng Ruoxue glared at him with a bad temper.

  "They're laughing because you look so cute!" The demon explained.

  "You can't laugh at me either." Cold as snow, she looked at the demon with an overbearing attitude and said.

  "Yes, milady." The demon replied with utmost obedience.

  "By the way, what level of elixir is the Ice Profound Pill?" Cold Snow turned her head towards Wu and asked.

  "The Bingxuandan is a top-grade elixir, but only alchemy masters who possess the divine flame can refine it." Wu You said helplessly. Alchemy masters were not hard to find on the vast continent of Haotian, but those who possessed the divine flame were extremely rare and hard to come by.

  "Is it the sacred fire?" Leng Ruo Xue thought to herself, her flame level was definitely above the sacred fire, but she had never refined a heavenly-level elixir before, nor had she gone to the Alchemist Association to test her own alchemist level. So, she wasn't sure if she could refine the Ice Profound Elixir that Wu needed. She hesitated, wondering whether or not to tell Wu that she was also an alchemist. She was afraid that Wu would place all his hopes on her, but she might not be able to help him after all.

  "That... actually, I am the alchemist who possesses the divine flame." Leng Ruo Xue hesitated for a moment before saying it out loud to Wu.

  "Really?" Wu looked at Leng Ruo Xue with a surprised expression on her face. After searching for so long, had she finally found it? It was really great.

  "But don't be too happy yet, I'm not sure if I can refine the Ice Profound Pill either." Leng Ruoxue said frankly.

  "It doesn't matter, as long as there's hope. That... may I see your innate flame?" He asked, filled with expectation.

  "Good." Leng Ruo Xue replied, and stretched out a finger. A moment later, a small flame ignited on the tip of her finger.

  "What a high temperature! Is this the sacred fire?" A puzzled expression appeared on Wu Jian's face, which was not handsome. The sacred fire shouldn't be like this! However, he was very certain that this girl's innate flame must be far superior to the sacred fire in terms of level. Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel delighted...

  "It should be!" Leng Ruoxue wasn't too sure either.

  "Xue Er, what level of dan medicine can you refine now?" he asked somewhat anxiously.

  "It's no problem at the earthly level, but as for the heavenly level, I haven't refined it yet." said Leng Ruoxue.

  "Hmm, or you can try refining it yourself, anyway, after all these years, the herbs I've collected are enough for you to practice with." Dao said very generously.

  "If you fail, don't say I didn't warn you." Leng Ruoxue reminded, she had to speak the ugly words first, so as not to blame her later.

  "No, I have a lot of herbs." Dao said without good mood. Since it's for practice, there's no reason not to fail, so he doesn't care about losing how many herbs, as long as the result is good.

  "Do you have the formula for the Ice Profound Pill?" asked Leng Ruoxue, she had to take a look at the formula before refining the pill, otherwise, if she didn't know the order of the herbs, it would still end in failure.

  "Yes, here it is." Wu handed a slightly yellowed paper to Leng Ruxue.

  "Give me the herbs, I'll try it out." Leng Ruoxue took over the prescription and carefully read through it once, memorizing the order of the herbs in her mind. Then, she stretched out her hand to Wu Yao for more herbs.

  "Here you are." Suddenly, a storage ring appeared out of nowhere and was handed over to Leng Ruo Xue.

  Leng Ruo Xue took the ring, her consciousness went in and looked at it, "Eh! So many herbs! The herbs inside the ring were like small mountains, piled up one after another, so numerous that they left her speechless!"

  "These herbs are enough for you to practice hundreds of times, right?" Wu Xiao asked with a smile, these were all his collections from thousands of years! Hehe, it's definitely going to scare this girl.

  "Hmm, if I succeed in refining it, then the remaining herbs can be my reward!" Leng Ruoxue said bluntly.

  "No problem, one Ice Profound Pill is enough for me." Wu's requirements were not high, collecting so many herbs was mainly to save his own beast, so one Ice Profound Pill was sufficient for him.

  "Hmm, I'll try to satisfy your requirements." Cold Snow nodded and sat down on the ground, taking out a dan furnace to start refining elixirs.

  After ignition and preheating, Leng Ruoxue put the medicinal materials needed for refining the Bingxuan Dan into the crucible one by one. After the medicinal materials melted, she began to purify them. The original white medicinal liquid, which was about the size of a blue ball, became only as big as an infant's fist after purification. Next came the condensation of the dan, and this was also the most crucial step in determining whether the Bingxuan Dan would be successful or not...

  At this time, Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Nie, along with a 'ghostly' gaze, were all staring intently at the dan furnace, they were even so tense that they didn't dare to breathe...

  After a moment, the unique fragrance of the elixir wafted through the stone chamber, which was a sign of its success. Inhaling this refreshing scent, Leng Xueyu's heart was overjoyed beyond measure. She couldn't believe that she had actually succeeded in refining a heavenly-grade elixir on her first try; didn't this mean that she already possessed the strength of an elixir-refining master?

  "Xue Er, quickly open the dan furnace and take a look, how many pellets have been refined?" He urged with some impatience, his wish of many years had finally come true, was this really happening? He almost didn't dare to believe it!

  "Alright." Leng Ruo Xue understood the impatient mood, so she didn't play dumb and directly opened the dan furnace. Inside, ten crystal-like transparent pills were quietly lying in the center of the furnace.

  "Ten pellets, it's really great! I didn't expect that your first attempt at refining a heavenly-grade elixir would yield such good results." Dao counted the pellets again, overjoyed.

  "Take it and save your beast!" Leng Ruoxue picked up an Ice Profound Pill and handed it to Wu, then put the rest of the pills into a jade bottle.

  "This Bingxuandan is a great thing! For ice and water attribute beasts, it's absolutely a healing holy medicine, and only one pill is needed, so the rest will be kept away!"

  He excitedly took the Ice Profound Dan, walked to the side of the sleeping Ice Qilin, gently opened its big mouth, and sent the Ice Profound Dan into its mouth. Then, he tensely guarded beside the bed, waiting...

  Leng Ruo Xue was leaning on Yao Jiao's body, eyes closed in meditation!

  After a long time.

  The hibernating Qilin has finally shown signs of awakening...

  It wasn't until about half an hour later that Bing Qilin finally fully woke up!

  "Master!" The ice Kirin's big, icy blue eyes were excited at the moment they saw Wu, and immediately jumped into Wu's arms in a fit of excitement, but unexpectedly, they ended up empty-handed...

  "Master!" The blue-eyed Ice Kirin looked at its master with tears in its eyes, wooo... how could this be?

  "Bingxi, you're awake now, don't be sad anymore, I'm fine." Wu gently stroked Bingxilong's head and cooed.

  "Master, your wound isn't healed yet." Bing Qi said with great certainty, as the master's beast, it was very clear to him just how severe his master's injury was.

  "I'm fine, Ice Kylin." He smiled warmly and comforted her. Who would have thought that not only had Ice Kylin woken up, but she had also recovered to the peak of her powers? This was truly great news, and he was genuinely happy for her!

  "Master, I've fully recovered from my injuries. I will protect you." Ice Kirin raised its head, its blue eyes filled with a firm determination.

  "Alright, Bing Qi, you're awake now. Thanks to Xue Er, you should thank her properly!" He nodded slightly in satisfaction and said to Bing Qi.

  "Xu?r?" In the icy blue eyes, two big question marks were written. After waking up, her eyes were all about her master, and she didn't see anyone else's existence at all.

  "It's that girl." He said with some helplessness, pointing at Leng Ruoxue who was leaning against the demon's chest and dozing off. Is this girl sleeping again?

  "Oh! Thank you for saving me." Bing Qi jumped beside Leng Ruo Xue and said politely.

  "Don't be polite." Cold-as-snow slowly opened her eyes and looked at the simulated ice Qilin, replying.

  "You two look very distinctive." Bing Qi looked at Leng Ruo Xue, then turned his head to look at Yao Jiao, saying with a hint of surprise.

  "Huh! Yeah!" Leng Ruo Xue's forehead was covered in black lines, she absolutely had not expected that one day, she would be praised by a Qilin disguised as a small dog, saying "You look very distinctive" Huh! If this could even be considered praise!

  "Hmph!" At this time, in Leng Ruo Xue's heart, the sneering voices of the beasts suddenly echoed again, making her feel even more suffocated!

  "Xue Er, let's leave this place!" Wu said, holding back his smile.

  "Good." Leng Ruoxue hastily replied and stood up.

  "That... Ice Kylin is it! Your master is over there." Cold-as-Snow looked at the Ice Kylin that had jumped onto her shoulder, pointing towards nothingness, and couldn't help but remind.

  "I know, but Master can't hold me now." Bing Qi said with some sadness.

  "Huh!" Leng Ruo Xue was speechless, what kind of logic is this?! Its own master can't carry it, can't it just walk by itself? Must it rely on someone else's body?!

  "You look down on me? I'm a level 9 super divine beast, if you weren't my lifesaver, I wouldn't be willing to stay on your shoulder!" Bing Qi said with great arrogance.

  “……”

  Leng Ruo Xue looked at it weakly, and muttered to herself... She really didn't know if she had just saved a beast or a gentleman! And according to this Ice Qilin's tone, she should even thank it for being willing to stay on her shoulder!

  "Xuě er, xīn kǔ nǐ le." Wú zuǐ jiǎo yǒu diǎn chōu zhì de dào, ǎi! Chén shuì le zhè me jiǔ, bīng qí de xǐ hǎo kě shì yī diǎn dōu méi biàn ā!

  Translation:

  "Xue Er, you've worked hard." The corners of his mouth twitched slightly as he said, Ah! After sleeping for so long, Bing Qi's preferences haven't changed a bit!

  "I want compensation!" Leng Ruoxue said coldly, her mind already made up to take revenge on Wu Yi.

  "No problem." He said with a very pleasant tone.

  Three people and a beast walked out of the stone cave, just like when they came, covering their own mysterious power on Leng Ruoxue and Yao Jiao's body, taking them flying out of the mountain valley.

  "Nothing, you scoundrel. You told us to follow you as a guide, but it turns out we're just accompanying you to see your own beast." After leaving the mountain stream, Leng Ruo Xue couldn't help but complain, and also happened to rescue his beast in the process.

  "It was too early just now, there's nothing to see in the city of carefree, but now is just about right." said some cunning way.

  "Let's go quickly then!" urged Leng Ruo Xue.

  "Master, where are we going?" Bing Ji asked somewhat dazedly as it lay on Leng Ruo Xue's shoulder. It had been asleep for too long and many things were different from what it remembered!

  "Go for a stroll in Xiangyang City." said Wu Dan faintly.

  "Oh, okay." Bing Qi yawned and said.

  "You just woke up and want to sleep again?" Leng Ruo Xue looked at the blue little dog on her shoulder, who was still sleepy, and asked somewhat speechlessly.

  "The life of the Qilin clan is almost entirely spent sleeping." Ice Qilin's matter-of-fact words.

  "Oh, then go to sleep!" Leng Ruo Xue stopped talking, it seems that Qilin is the beast she has seen who loves sleeping the most, no wonder they all look so fat!

  "Xue Er, that carefree building is the best restaurant in Carefree City, let's go in and have something to eat!" As they walked, he suddenly pointed at a store front that looked very impressive and said.

  "Eat something? Okay!" Bing Ji, who was lying on Leng Ruo Xue's shoulder, opened his tightly closed blue eyes as soon as he heard that there was food to eat, and his face was full of expectation.

  "Go ahead!" Cold-as-snow shook her head, really having no way to deal with this master and beast.

  "Two of you, please come in for the first time! Quick, inside please." Cold Ruo Xue and the three beasts had just walked into the Xiangyang Building when the waiter came forward with great enthusiasm. However, he could only see Cold Ruo Xue and Yao Jiao, while the little blue dog was automatically ignored by him.

  "Is there a private room?" Seeing the waiter leading them to the hall, Leng Ruoxue couldn't help but ask, as they had no choice but to dine in the hall.

  "Sorry, it's almost dinner time now, so all the private rooms are full. The two of you can only make do with this table." The waiter pointed to a table and said in a very respectful tone. Anyone who comes to Xiangyang Building for a meal will not have a low status, so the waiter dare not be lazy.

  "Alright! Add more of the delicious dishes." Ling Ruo Xue ordered, and directly sat down on the chair. The two demons sat down beside her, while Bing Ji jumped onto the table.

  "Alright, you two wait for a moment." After the waiter left, not long after, dish after dish of fragrant and delicious food were brought to the table.

  After the dishes were all ready, Sanpang Yishou began to eat with great relish.

  "The dishes at Xiangyao Building are still delicious, but compared to before, they have deteriorated a lot." Wu said without any emotion, and casually picked up a piece of meat and put it into his own mouth.

  "Then you eat more!" Leng Ruoxue said, she wasn't very interested in the dishes of Xiangyao Building, but seeing this person and beast eating so happily, she also followed suit and ate a few mouthfuls.

  "Shopkeeper, how can such a high-end restaurant allow pets to eat at the table?" A sharp voice, not too loud or too soft, just reached Cold Snow and You Yao's ears.

  Zheng sat at the dinner table eating with gusto, upon hearing this voice, he didn't even lift his head, still focusing on devouring his food with abandon.

  As for Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jie, there's no need to look to know who the owner of this voice is, so they naturally didn't bother to pay attention.

  "Miss Sun, your private room is upstairs." The shopkeeper said with a difficult expression, implying that you can pretend not to see.

  After all, the people who come here are not alchemists or pill masters. Every one of them is not easy to provoke. Otherwise, who knows what kind of encounter you will have tomorrow if you offend this person today? The example of a dead fish turning over has happened on the continent of Hua Tian before. So, the shopkeeper is not stupid. He said that he was not a servant of the Sun family, and even if the Sun family's power was great, it could not reach the city of Xiangyang. Therefore, the young lady of the Sun family is really nothing in his eyes!

  "Shopkeeper, if you don't drive these two people who don't understand the rules out today, I will never come here to dine again," Sun Meilin threatened.

  "Miss Sun, please take your time, I won't see you off." The shopkeeper said calmly. Humph! If this young lady from the Sun family hadn't threatened him, he might have been more polite to her. Now, there was no need for that!

  Sun Meilin was stunned. This damned shopkeeper, did he know or not know her identity? He actually dared to treat her like this! It's really too despicable!

  "Haha!" Leng Ruo Xue couldn't help but laugh at this scene, this shopkeeper is quite interesting!

  "Ugly freak, how dare you laugh?" Sun Meilin roared in anger, instantly attracting the attention of the dining guests with her sharp voice.

  "Miss Sun, I recall telling you before that as the second beauty of the Kunlun Continent, you must always pay attention to your image. Yelling like this makes you look like a shrew, and it's heartbreaking for those blind, infatuated men who see you as their goddess!" Cold Snow sneered with a light smile.

  As soon as Leng Ruo Xue's words came out, Yao Jiao and Wu He couldn't help but burst into laughter. The guests dining in the great hall, restrained by Sun Mei Lin's identity, didn't dare laugh as wildly as they did, but their irrepressible upturned mouths betrayed their joyful mood at this moment...

  The shopkeeper also turned around, with his back to Sun Meilin, but his shoulders kept shaking constantly, apparently struggling hard to hold back!

  "Liner, what's wrong? Why haven't you come in yet?" Zhou Kun asked, coming down from upstairs with a puzzled expression.

  "Brother-in-law, these two ugly freaks actually humiliated me, and that annoying dead dog." Sun Meilin was the first to tattle, as if she had found a powerful backer.

  "What are they laughing at?" Zhou Kun glanced at Leng Ruoxue and asked indifferently. Alas, even eating a meal could lead to encountering this ugly freak, it was really too unlucky! Now, the admiring gaze that Leng Ruoxue had once given him still lingered in his heart, refusing to disperse for a long time! As soon as he thought about it, he felt nauseous at the fact that he had been looked at with such a disgusting gaze by an ugly woman.

  "That woman humiliated me, saying I'm a shrew." Sun Meilin said with some indignation, her eyes glaring fiercely at the ice cream that was rolling around exaggeratedly on the table, laughing with its front and back split open.

  "Huh! How could Lin'er be a shrew?" Zhou Kun coaxed, actually, he was thinking the same thing in his heart, and no one knew better than him what this stunning beauty's true face looked like.

  "Brother, tell the boss that if they don't get rid of them, I'll never come here to eat again." Sun Meilin pointed her finger at the boss and continued to tattle.

  "Liner, let's not make it difficult for the shopkeeper, he's also having a hard time." Zhou Kun pleaded, in fact, he was very clear that the shopkeepers of Xiangyang City were not something he could command, because they simply wouldn't care about his identity.

  "Thank you, Director Zhou, for your understanding." The shopkeeper said with a flattering tone, then swung his sleeves and didn't even give Sun Meilin a glance before turning around and leaving the place of dispute.

  "Brother-in-law, you're still pleading for him, but he doesn't even take you seriously." Sun Meilin was very dissatisfied with the shopkeeper's attitude and complained.

  "Lin'er, Xiangyang City is not like other cities. Here, we'd better keep a low profile." Zhou Kun advised, "Hmph! That guy doesn't even give his master face, what can he do? However, this is something he wouldn't say to Sun Meilin."

  "Ling'er, let's go upstairs and have dinner!" Zhou Kun continued.

  "I'm full, I've had enough of this." Sun Meilin said irritably.

  Then, she walked to the front of Leng Ruoxue and others, with a slightly arrogant tone: "Ugly eight, in the competition, I'm looking forward to meeting you." Because, inside Xiangyang City, it is not allowed to fight privately, so if she wants to get rid of Leng Ruoxue, she can only do it during the competition.

  After finishing speaking, Sun Meilin left Xiangyang Building with a huff.

  "Lin'er!" Zhou Kun saw this and hastily chased after her.

  "Xue Er, Bing Qi, you two are in trouble!" Wait until Sun Meilin leaves, Wu says with some schadenfreude.
