âHmph! At least you know your place.â Leng Qingtian and the other old men glared at him and growled.
âHehe!â The disheveled old man scratched his head speechlessly, his expression aggrieved. Boohoo⦠He didnât think he had said anything! Why did these old fellows care more and more about their age! How baffling.
Leng Ruoxue looked at Cheng Wu and the others who were chasing after her, then looked at the old men and smiled helplessly. Then, she said, âStop fighting. Cheng Wu, go and prepare. Letâs get together tonight.â
âYes, Miss. Letâs have breakfast first!â Cheng Wu suggested.
âYes.â Leng Ruoxue nodded.
After everyone finished breakfast, Cheng Wu and the others began to prepare the food for the dinner. As evening approached, all the preparations were completed, so everyone started eating happily at the back of the mountainâ¦
During the meal, Cheng Wu told the butler and the others, who had been guarding Myriad Mountain City, about what they had experienced in the Boundless Heaven Continent these days. When they heard it, their blood boiled and they were extremely excited. However, after the butler heard it, he burst into tearsâ¦
âWhy are you crying?â Cheng Wu was a little speechless. This guy was getting more and more childish. Sigh! He really couldnât stand it.
âYou still have the cheek to say that. If you hadnât set me up, I could have participated in these things myself. Boohooâ¦â The butler sobbed.
âUh! Someone has to stay behind to guard the house! It wasnât easy for us to occupy Myriad Mountain City,â Cheng Wu said without much confidence, feeling a little guilty.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHmph! You still have the cheek to say that!â The butler glared angrily and roared.
âUh!â Cheng Wu tactfully stopped talking. He really regretted telling them these things for no reason!
âHehe! Head Butler, Myriad Mountain City is doing well under your management!â Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Song Di quickly changed the topic. After all, they were all involved in what happened back then, so it was better not to mention it.
âWe must. This is our home,â the Head butler said proudly.
âHereâs to you, Head butler,â said Song Di quickly.
He wouldnât hit a smiling face. Even though the Head butler was still a little angry, he picked up his glass and drank with Song Di.
âHehe! Xueâer, these guys are really energetic!â Empty looked at Cheng Wu and the others and chuckled.
âOkay.â Leng Ruoxue nodded. She quite liked the atmosphere between her subordinates. Sometimes, fighting could improve their relationship.
âDo you have any plans for the future, Xueâer?â asked Empty.
âI want to continue cultivating. Empty, how long will it take to break through to Mystic Supremacy?â Leng Ruoxue asked curiously.
âThatâs hard to say. It varies from person to person. Some people might only need a few years, while others might never break through,â Empty said after thinking.
âYouâll all break through, Xueâer,â Empty added.
âYes, Iâm very confident about this,â Leng Ruoxue said confidently.
âHaha! Canât you be modest?â Empty said with a laugh.
âBeing overly humble is hypocritical. Besides, this is the truth! Why do you have to be humble?â Leng Ruoxue said with a faint smile.
âHaha! That makes sense, Xueâer. I realize that these subordinates of yours are becoming more and more like you,â Empty said.
âOf course,â Leng Ruoxue said with a smile. It wasnât that easy to nurture them! She had nurtured these subordinates for a long time.
âLittle Xueâer, after we leave the Boundless Heaven Continent, you have to protect me!â Empty joked.
âYes, donât worry. As long as youâre obedient, Iâll protect you,â Leng Ruoxue promised seriously.
The two of them chatted casually, but the demon beside them was a little unhappy. He took Xueâerâs hand and said, âXueâer, Iâm tired. Letâs go back to our room!â After saying that, his bright eyes kept blinking.
âItâs still early!â Leng Ruoxue said speechlessly. She thought to herself, This guy is acting cute again. Itâs really too late.
âBut Iâm sleepy,â The freak said, and yawned to prove his point.
âAlright then!â Leng Ruoxue replied helplessly. Then, she greeted Cheng Wu and the others before returning to her room with the freak.
After the two of them entered the bracelet together, the freak was no longer sleepy. He even shouted that he wanted to roast fish for Xueâer.
âYou said you were tired just now, and now you want to roast fish?â Leng Ruoxue asked calmly, thinking, What a manâs heart!
âI have to fill my stomach before I sleep! I didnât eat much outside,â the freak said aggrievedly, tears still flickering in his eyes.
âAlright then!â Leng Ruoxue couldnât do anything to him. She could only go to the fish pond and catch a few silver snow fish to roast in the space.
However, there were still many beasts in the space, so it was not appropriate for the two of them to eat alone. Fortunately, many beasts could help. Just like that, Feng Da and the others were eating enthusiastically outside, and Leng Ruoxue, the freak, and the beasts were also eating heartily in the bracelet.
After Leng Ruoxue and the freak finished eating the grilled fish, they returned to the Purple Bamboo Hut to rest. However, when they left, the beasts were still eatingâ¦
The next morning.
When Leng Ruoxue and the freak came out of the purple bamboo hut, they saw that the little beasts were all lying on their stomachs with their legs facing up. Their stomachs were also full. They couldnât help but laugh. How many things had these little fellows destroyed! However, seeing them sleeping on the ground, she couldnât help but think of something and sent them back to their residence. Then, the two of them left the bracelet together.
In the courtyard, Cheng Wu and the others were also lying on the ground. Leng Ruoxue searched around and did not see her grandfather and the others. She was relieved. Oh! Fortunately, her grandfather and the others were more rational. Sigh! She had to let these guys drink less in the future.
After that, Leng Ruoxue arranged for someone to send them back to their rooms. Then, she sat in the courtyard with the freak and basked in the sun.
âFreak, letâs start seclusion in a few days!â Leng Ruoxue thought for a moment as she leaned in the monsterâs arms.
