Chapter 46 Qinghuan is truly a good junior brother
After jumping off the flying sword, the blush on Wu Qinghuan's face slowly disappeared.
It returned to its cold state.
It might be because of her senior's nasty behavior of secretly touching her stomach.
This made him start to be careful.
She stood beside her third senior sister, far away from Xu Nian.
Looking at Fu Qiuyu, Wu Qinghuan hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "Senior Sister seems very sad?"
It would have been better if she hadn't said anything, because once she did, the third senior sister couldn't hold back anymore.
"I don't know who stole my sweet potatoes! Waaaaah..."
Fu Qiuyu's eyes were red-rimmed, and she looked like a pear blossom in the rain.
Wu Qinghuan seemed a little angry after hearing this.
"What a bastard! He even stole my senior sister's sweet potatoes! How despicable!"
"Right! Right!" Fu Qiuyu felt as if he had found a kindred spirit. Hearing his junior brother curse that guy like that made him feel extremely relieved.
"Don't cry, senior sister. When we have the chance, Qinghuan will roast sweet potatoes for you."
"Ah!" Third Senior Sister was deeply moved. "Qinghuan, you are so kind, such a good person, such a good junior brother."
What a wonderful junior brother!
Seeing that I was sad, they actually came to comfort me.
She even said she would roast sweet potatoes for herself afterward.
How wonderful!
In comparison, Xiao Nian is not so perfect.
Although she has excellent talent for cultivation and is also good-looking.
But none of them possessed the delicate and considerate nature of Wu Qinghuan.
and many more.
There were only the two of them on the mountain.
Masters and senior sisters, some are in seclusion, and some have gone down the mountain.
Judging from Xiao Qinghuan's reaction now, he certainly didn't steal the sweet potato.
that…
Exclude yourself, exclude tranquility.
Who's left on the mountain?
Fu Qiuyu frowned slightly, her gaze slowly falling on Xu Nian.
Looking at this sunny and handsome junior brother.
The third senior sister gritted her teeth.
That wretched Xiao Nian! She actually stole my sweet potatoes when I wasn't looking!
Didn't they know that was a precious food they only ate when they were just eating melon seeds?
"That thief must be a vicious person! He stole her sweet potatoes while she wasn't looking! He must be a guy who looks good on the surface but is actually a scoundrel!"
"This...this can't be that bad..."
Fu Qiuyu felt a little embarrassed, thinking that Junior Brother Qinghuan's scolding was a bit too harsh.
He was kind-hearted and didn't know who the sweet potato thief was.
But do I know it myself?
This may seem complicated, but it's actually based on simple reasoning.
Based on the two people's attitudes, it's clear that the person who stole the sweet potatoes must be Xiao Nian.
Although the third senior sister was sad, she didn't actually blame her junior brother that much.
"No! Senior Sister! That guy must look harmless, but he's actually extremely wicked! He bullies you all the time... In short! He must be an extremely wicked guy!"
"An extremely, vile guy?"
Fu Qiuyu blinked and thought for a moment.
The thought that I had been worried about his cultivation level not long ago made me realize how much I had worried.
But that brat, without anyone knowing when, stole his sweet potatoes.
After thinking about all this, the third senior sister finally nodded.
This can be considered as agreeing with Wu Qinghuan's words.
That's outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!
It's simply too much!
Xu Nian, who was talking to a disciple of the Hall of Deacons not far away, suddenly sensed two killing intents.
He frowned.
Looking around, he saw his senior sister and junior brother staring at him from not far away.
His eyes gleamed with a cold light.
Um? What's the meaning?
What's going on with these two people?
Why are they targeting me?
"Wu Qinghuan is one thing, but my scheming junior brother is black inside, full of bad intentions. He's probably thinking about how to get revenge on me. That look in his eyes is perfectly normal."
"But why has the naturally naive senior sister become like this too? What happened to her?"
Soon, Xu Nian had an idea.
They were probably fooled by Wu Qinghuan.
Poor senior sister.
He sighed and stopped paying attention to that direction.
He carefully examined the file handed to him by his disciple.
"In a small fishing village a hundred miles south of the Sword Sect, people have been dying one after another in just a few days. The survivors saw a monster with a human-shaped fish head... Is it a demon?"
Slaughtering ordinary people.
They even killed the rogue cultivators that the village chief had invited.
That's really awful.
"I wonder what level of cultivation this fish demon possesses..."
Xu Nian crossed her arms and frowned slightly.
If it's the Qi Refining stage, that would be fine. I could practice with my junior brother and even have a go at the fish demon.
Even if things don't go well, there's always my senior sister there to keep things in check.
Although my senior sister isn't very reliable, she's still quite capable of dealing with a mere Qi Refining fish demon.
If it's during the Foundation Establishment stage...
Neither I nor Qinghuan could get involved.
I can only rely on my senior sister.
As for the Golden Core stage above Foundation Establishment…
Xu Nian shook his head. "If a Golden Core Realm demon beast were to injure someone, the commotion would be considerable. I reckon the sect's elders would have already led a team to exterminate it."
This fish demon is probably not very strong.
It's highly likely that he's in the Body Tempering or Qi Refining stage.
It's unlikely to be the foundation-building stage.
"If it's the former, then my junior brother and I will join forces to deal with it; if it's the latter, then my senior sister will go and slay the demon."
Having made up her mind, Xu Nian nodded.
I handed the case file to my senior colleague.
I briefly shared my thoughts.
Fu Qiuyu thought about it and agreed.
"Then this is the task. Let's move on."
Leave after accepting the mission.
At this moment, the third senior sister looked at Xu Nian strangely, "Xiao Nian, did you already accept the mission?"
"No."
"How come you're so skilled? It's like you've done it many times before."
Xu Nian smiled and said, "When I brought Xiao Xiao to the miscellaneous service hall last time, I paid more attention to her, thinking about taking on tasks with Qing Huan later, so I familiarized myself with the process."
"I see."
The group was just about to leave the deacon's hall.
Suddenly, a red shadow flashed in the distance.
Wu Qinghuan narrowed her eyes slightly when she saw the person.
Xu Nian started to have a headache.
Fu Qiuyu, however, did not react.
The girl in the red dress was very fast; she flashed in front of everyone in less than ten breaths.
She looked at Xu Nian with concern.
I was about to speak when I suddenly realized it was inappropriate.
Then he looked at Fu Qiuyu and said, "Qiuyu, isn't it a bit too early for you to take Junior Brother Xu Nian on a mission now? He's only at the Body Tempering stage."
The third senior sister was a little embarrassed and scratched her head.
He whispered, "Xiao Nian just broke through to the Qi Refining stage this morning, and she's now at the second level of Qi Refining."
"what?!"
The girl in the red dress was stunned.
This woman was none other than Shangguan Ling, whom Xu Nian had returned the pills to after a chance encounter not long ago.
At this moment, Shangguan Ling was filled with questions.
Not long ago, Junior Brother Xu Nian told me that he was only at the fifth level of Body Tempering.
Even so, it still deeply impressed me.
How much time has passed?
This kid has actually broken through to the Qi Refining stage!
Or should we go straight to the second level of Qi Refining?
This guy! Is he even human?!
