With a straight face, Chu Chengxi said, “Then, have you thought of a solution?”
“I actually thought of a solution when you yelled just now, Father. It’s all thanks to you.” Chu Xiaoyue didn’t forget to flatter Chu Chengxi, even though it made her feel disgusted.
Chu Chengxi’s expression softened. “What is the solution?”
“Yes, tell us what we can do, Zhaodi,” Yang Fengxiang urged.
Faced with the two’s expectant eyes, Chu Xiaoyue had to speak up no matter how unsatisfied she felt. She couldn’t let Chu Qianyan continue to take advantage of them. After all, those spiritual herbs were partly hers too.
“We can’t stop big sister, but we can request the help of the sect’s people,” Chu Xiaoyue added. “We can go ask the sect leader to handle this matter. If the sect leader intervenes, Sister won’t be able to refuse. Maybe, we can even get everything she took returned.”
Chu Xiaoyue thought the plan was feasible. There was no way Chu Qianyan would continue to plunder Dengyun Peak if the sect leader got involved.
“Yes, let’s go find the sect leader.”
Chu Chengxi and Yang Fengxiang exchanged a glance. Both of them didn’t feel tired. They called Chu Xiaoyue, and the three of them hurriedly went to find the sect leader, Fei Yun.
Fei Yun was a late-stage Core Formation cultivator, a stage higher than Qian Yan right now. However, Qian Yan was not afraid of him.
She dared to come to Dengyun Peak to rob it. She had considered all the details and anticipated that this family would eventually seek the sect leader’s help. She had already thought about how to respond.
She never did anything that she wasn’t sure about.
When she saw those three people hurry down the peak, she knew what they were trying to do.
Ye Huaifeng saw them and approached Qian Yan, saying, “Master, we should go. They’re probably going to ask the sect leader to come here.”
“Don’t be afraid. It’s normal for family members to take some things from each other. The sect leader won’t interfere in family matters.” Qian Yan had no intention of leaving. She only urged her disciples to dig faster.
Ye Huaifeng’s tense face relaxed. In truth, he knew that considering his master’s strength, she did not need to be afraid of the sect leader. Besides, this was indeed the master’s family matter, and outsiders would naturally not be allowed to interfere.
He was only asking that question to test her.
“Huaifeng, you were testing me, weren’t you?”
Ye Huaifeng, who was digging a spiritual herb, tensed up when he heard Qian Yan’s voice. Before he could say anything in response, Qian Yan’s voice brushed against his ear once more. “That’s normal.”
Qian Yan didn’t speak anymore and concentrated on digging up spiritual herbs. Ye Huaifeng was a little unsettled.
“Master, are you angry?”
“No, I won’t be angry with you for testing me.”
Ye Huaifeng carefully observed her and found that she really was not angry. “Master, I’m choosing to believe you. I won’t test you again from now on.”
“Good.”
His master had clearly changed a lot. How could he continue to keep testing her?
Despite everything that’d happened, the Chu family still had the gall to actually invite the sect leader, Fei Yun, to come.
“Sect Leader, you must decide for us. Our sect has rules; you can’t just grab resources at will! She is violating the sect’s regulations.” Chu Chengxi wore a troubled expression. “I don’t know why Daidi is suddenly acting like this. Suddenly, she’s become like this, snatching everything she sees. We’re really at a loss. Someone must have poisoned her mind.”
Fei Yun frowned when he heard Chu Chengxi use the name Daidi1Similar to Xiaoyue’s name, ‘Zhaodi’, this name literally means ‘bringing a younger brother’.
What a ridiculous name!
Also, did this family really think that he’d come to the spiritual field to decide on their behalf?
He only came to have a look. He’d heard from them that his junior sister, Qianyan, was acting strangely today.
He thought, could it be that Junior Sister Qianyan had achieved enlightenment?
Fei Yun’s eyes lit up. His martial uncle2This means Fei Yun’s master and Qian Zun were from the same generation. As far as I know, that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re biological brothers. They could also just be martial brothers., Qian Zun, had once said that Junior Sister Qianyan was too fixated on worldly matters. If she couldn’t achieve enlightenment, even with her exceptional talent, she wouldn’t be able to become immortal.
