Chapter 24, Let's Change Robes
Chapter 24, Let's Change Robes
Several days passed in the blink of an eye.
Unbeknownst to them, Xu Nian and Wu Qinghuan both stepped into the fifth level of Body Tempering.
Fu Qiuyu's reaction to this was: I'm numb.
She had been shocked countless times.
These two guys seem to be breaking through no bottlenecks.
His cultivation level was improving by leaps and bounds every day.
At this rate, I'll be able to reach the peak of Body Tempering in less than a month.
That will be the time to break through to the Qi Refining stage.
Fu Qiuyu felt somewhat frustrated when she thought about how long she had taken it.
A deep sense of frustration, a deep sense of powerlessness.
Afterwards, she wandered around the sect again.
They discovered that most of the newly initiated disciples were still in the process of trying to sense spiritual energy.
A small portion can now be drawn into the body.
However, it did not reach the first level of body tempering at all.
As for the outer disciples, they had no way of sensing the energy of heaven and earth.
All I can say is that the gap between people is just too big.
"Is this the difference between people...?" Fu Qiuyu sighed with emotion.
Before we knew it, it was the end of the month.
I heard there's a temple fair in a small town near the foot of the mountain.
Just then, his two junior brothers entered the fifth level of Body Tempering.
His physical strength far exceeds that of ordinary people.
He was no longer the frail little disciple he once was.
They are very strong now.
Uh, no, that's not right.
It should be said that Xu Nianzhuang is very strong.
Wu Qinghuan didn't know what was going on; she was still tiny.
She was thin and small.
Like a girl.
Although Fu Qiuyu had consciously encouraged him to eat more, he still couldn't gain weight.
The third senior sister felt that this youngest disciple was probably a bit weak.
He was born with a deficiency of Yang energy.
Insufficient Qi and Blood.
That's why her skin is so white and her body is so weak.
That's normal.
I don't have any good solutions, so I can only tell him to take good care of himself.
The situation will improve once my cultivation level increases.
Time flies in the mountains.
At dawn, the clouds and mist drifted by.
Several figures were inside the pavilion.
The third senior sister stood with her hands behind her back, dressed in a long robe.
Strands of hair by her ears swayed gently in the wind.
He had the air of a hermit sage.
Of course, it would be better if there weren't any sweet potato remnants on her lips.
That would make it even more imposing.
With a gentle flick of her tongue, she discreetly licked the sweet potato chunks into her mouth.
Then, he wiped his mouth.
She continued to maintain her senior sister demeanor, looking at those two abnormal junior brothers who broke through realms as easily as eating and drinking.
"I am very satisfied with your performance these past few days, so I think I should take you two down the mountain today to a nearby city to attend a temple fair and buy some wine for Master."
The two of them didn't react much.
Wu Qinghuan has always been like this; she is a calm and composed child.
Fu Qiuyu was already used to this.
But Xu Nian didn't react at all, which surprised the third senior sister.
"Junior Brother Xu, are you unhappy?"
"Fortunately."
"You seem quite calm."
Xu Nian shook her head.
I complained in my heart.
Every time we go down the mountain, you make me carry the wine. Who could be happy about that?
They have storage bags, but they don't use them.
He suppressed his junior apprentice and made him do hard labor.
Xu Nian suspected that Fu Qiuyu's storage bag contained something illicit.
I never use it.
Every time he went down the mountain to the market, he would make himself do hard labor.
Xu Nian had already forgotten about this matter.
But now, hearing her senior sister say she would take her down the mountain, she remembered it all again.
I have many feelings.
These are all memories from when I was weak in my previous life.
It's already very blurry.
The blurry memories have become clear again, which makes Xu Nian feel complicated.
There's still some anticipation, more or less.
"Alright, pack your things. If you have any money, bring more so we can buy some good food."
"Senior sister, don't even think about it. Neither of us has any money."
Let's set aside whether we have any money on us.
Even if she had it, Xu Nian would never take it out.
Because he knew exactly how much food his third senior sister's seemingly small belly could hold.
This guy's title of "human glutton" is well-deserved.
She can really eat a lot.
No amount of silver could afford it.
Fu Qiuyu pursed her lips.
"Then you should all go change your clothes first. These robes for direct disciples are too eye-catching. We need to keep a low profile after we go down the mountain. You... never mind, you can all wear veils."
She was annoyed. "They're all so good-looking. What if some female demon snatches you away? How am I supposed to explain this to my master? This is such a hassle."
Xu Nian nodded helplessly.
He went back to the house with Wu Qinghuan.
They began changing into their robes.
Xu Nian moved swiftly, and in no time he had changed into the gray robe he had worn in the servants' quarters.
Although it was a bit worn out, it was very clean.
It's washed so much it's turned a bit whitish.
After changing, he turned around and found Wu Qinghuan staring at him.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a handsome guy before?"
This little brat has been giving me the silent treatment for the past few days, all because I slapped his butt back then.
So vindictive.
So many days have passed, and he hasn't said a single word to me.
His stubborn temper flared up.
That's great, I'm not afraid of the dark at night anymore, and I'm not clingy anymore.
They didn't even reach out their little hands anymore.
He didn't lift his leg to straddle his waist.
In short, it's about keeping to ourselves and not interfering with each other.
They were very polite to themselves.
If you can avoid speaking, then do so.
But he would still secretly look at himself, whether there was something to do or not.
"Humph."
Xiao Qinghuan gave a soft hum, seemingly imitating Fu Qiuyu, and also pouted.
He stood with his arms crossed, showing no intention of changing his clothes.
Xu Nian, displaying her mischievous side, also crossed her arms like him.
Today, I'm really not leaving.
I watched him change his clothes in person.
Usually, she would go out by herself, leaving him alone in the room to change.
Wu Qinghuan sensed Xu Nian's gaze and understood his meaning.
She pursed her lips.
She bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth.
I really don't know where he learned this girlish attitude from.
Wu Qinghuan turned her back.
Long, slender fingers gently unbuttoned the buttons.
Before long, her beautiful back became visible.
My junior brother's back was like a flawless piece of jade, completely white.
Skin so smooth and supple it could be broken with a touch.
He didn't continue changing his clothes, but instead turned his head to look at Xu Nian.
Pursed red lips.
She didn't say anything, she just looked at him.
They made eye contact.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the room began to become eerie.
A thought suddenly popped into Xu Nian's mind.
Junior Brother...
You smell so good…
His pupils contracted, and he quickly shook his head.
Damn, I'm burning with karmic fire.
Strange thoughts always pop into my head.
How abominable.
"Um, well, you, you change first."
Xu Nian rubbed her temples.
Turn around and leave.
He didn't notice Wu Qinghuan's smiling face behind him at all.
This was the first time he had ever laughed like that.
Bright and beautiful as a flower.
It's as intoxicating as the warm April sun.
Seeing Xu Nian leave, Wu Qinghuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Quickly change into your robes.
They walked out of the house together.
"Let's go."
"Finally speaking? Didn't you not want to talk to me?" Xu Nian teased him deliberately.
Wu Qinghuan's face suddenly turned cold.
He scoffed, "Just talking to himself."
Okay, so we'll continue the Cold War, huh?
OK OK.
Xu Nian will accompany you!
