"Even more amazing than Sister Xue'er?" Dongfang Yao was somewhat surprised.
She had assumed that their team, mostly composed of spirit beasts, would be a good fit.
As long as Xue Di is around, she is practically invincible.
Unexpectedly, the soul beast on the other continent was even stronger.
Hyotei let out a soft snort, speaking with utter disdain.
"Afraid of it? Don't underestimate my Xue'er. So what if she has high cultivation? If it really comes down to a fight, Xue'er will still hold her own."
Xue Di herself didn't seem to have any particular emotions.
Just like Hyotei said.
Even when facing a soul beast with a higher cultivation level than herself, she remained fearless.
Dongfang Jing then spoke up, bringing the topic back on track.
"After the Soul Master Competition ends and everything is settled, we can try to go out to sea and see if Qiankun Asks About Love Valley is there."
Hyotei was puzzled.
"Little brother, what exactly is this valley you mentioned? And what about the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well? Xue'er and I have never heard of it before."
Without further ado, Dongfang Jing ran his fingers across the Twin Stars and retrieved two thick rubbings of the Xuan Tian Bao Lu.
He handed the parchment scrolls to the two emperors of ice and snow respectively, and explained a sentence.
"Born with uniquely favorable conditions, it is a place where the essence of heaven and earth gathers, and it is the place where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth converges. These are the three great treasure troves."
"This so-called treasure trove is a treasure trove for medicine. There is a high possibility that rare medicinal herbs are growing in this Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire!"
"I just hope that Dugu Bo doesn't know the value of these herbs, or that he doesn't waste them."
Hyotei and Yuki-tei stared at the thick stack of parchment in their hands, speechless for a moment.
They did know that rare medicinal herbs and immortal plants grew in this world.
For example, in the far north where they originally lived, there once appeared a ginseng king of ten thousand years and nine grades.
But now it seems that they need to catch up on their studies in order to fully understand the conversation between Dongfang Jing and the others.
After nodding to everyone, Hyotei and Yuki-tei turned and went back to the villa.
The training grounds were set up, and it was already late.
Dongfang Jing then invited everyone to return to their rooms to rest and prepare for the new life that would begin the next day.
Inside the villa, Dongfang Yao and Wang Qiu'er's room was on the second floor.
They watched as Dongfang Jing prepared to go upstairs, their two piercing gazes fixed on his back.
His eyes were deep and unfathomable, carrying a meaning that was hard to define.
Perhaps their gazes were too conspicuous, for Dongfang Jing stopped and turned around to ask, "What's wrong?"
With a pleading look on her face, Dongfang Yao asked, "Brother, can Yao'er sleep with you?"
Don't even think about it.
Dongfang Jing flatly refused.
He continued upstairs while waving behind him.
"How many times have I said the same thing? You're all grown up now, not a child anymore. There's a difference between boys and girls, don't you understand?"
Watching her brother, Brigitte, and Ah Yin's figures disappear at the top of the stairs,
Dongfang Yao stomped her foot angrily, pouting and muttering, "Isn't it good that I'm older? Do you prefer younger ones... you stinky brother!"
The girl gave a soft hum, then took the hand of Wang Qiu'er, who was equally depressed, standing beside her.
"Let's go, it seems we won't have a chance tonight."
Wang Qiu'er nodded listlessly, then suddenly remembered something and turned her head to ask, "Yao'er, that medicine... are you planning to use it?"
A hint of hesitation and struggle flashed across Dongfang Yao's delicate face.
But in the end, she nodded heavily.
Seeing this, Wang Qiu'er asked with some concern, "Are you sure it's okay? Will drinking this medicine damage my foundation?"
"This is indeed a problem."
Dongfang Yao had certainly considered this, and she replied softly, "Let's test it on animals first when we have the chance. But this was bought at an auction, and the auction house's reputation is guaranteed."
"But the problem is, how are we supposed to give it to him?"
The two women discussed their plans as they walked toward their respective rooms.
"Hey, Qiu'er," Dongfang Yao suddenly asked, "By the way, can you beat my brother?"
Wang Qiu'er shook her head and honestly replied, "In a contest of pure strength, I would definitely win. But if it's a real sparring match, I can't win even once. A-Jing has too many tricks up his sleeve, and his reactions are ridiculously fast. My attacks are hard to land on him; it's all so dazzling..."
"Oh? Never mind then." Dongfang Yao sighed.
She had originally planned to have Wang Qiu'er use her absolute power to forcibly control Dongfang Jing, while she took the opportunity to feed him the medicine.
It now appears that this simple and crude plan is not feasible, and we need to find another way.
Just as the two of them were racking their brains to come up with a solution.
Dongfang Jing, who had just reached the third-floor corridor, suddenly felt a chill for no reason.
"Are there always treacherous subjects trying to harm me?"
As he thought about it, he subconsciously glanced back at the empty stairwell.
"What's wrong?" Brigitte, who was walking ahead, noticed that he had stopped and asked softly.
Dongfang Jing shook his head: "It's nothing."
Then, as if remembering something, he suddenly spoke up, "By the way, Master, would you like to...?"
Brigitte's body stiffened slightly.
She immediately realized what Dongfang Jing was talking about, and a blush crept up her ears.
She turned her head slightly to avoid her disciple's gaze, did not respond, and went straight into her room.
Dongfang Jing looked at the tightly closed door and sighed silently in his heart.
Welcome to the popular TV series, "My Shy Master".
Then, he looked at Ah Yin beside him and asked with a smile, "Sister Ah Yin, what about you? Same as usual?"
Upon hearing this, Ah Yin unconsciously crossed her two jade-like hands in front of her, her fingertips gently rubbing together, and lowered her head slightly.
She certainly understood the old rules Dongfang Jing was referring to.
It refers to Brigitte arriving first, and her arriving later.
Then, after a few days in between, continue this cycle twice a week.
This is how it was when we lived in the Star Dou Great Forest.
Although Ah Yin was a little hesitant, she still softly hummed in agreement.
...
A moment later, in Xue Di's bedroom.
On the soft and comfortable bed, Xue Di leaned lazily against the headboard and stretched.
Her slender figure, long, snow-white legs, and delicate waist were all revealed under the soft light.
She couldn't help but sigh inwardly, compared to the cold and hard ice bed in her cave in the far north.
The beds in the human world are so much more comfortable.
Xue Di was flipping through the rubbing of the Xuan Tian Bao Lu in her hands. When she saw the ingeniously designed hidden weapons and various unheard-of martial arts techniques, she was quite shocked.
She exclaimed, "Putting everything else aside, human wisdom is truly boundless!"
"Xue'er! Xue'er!"
Beside her, Hyotei was propping his chin up, lying face down on the bed, his two fair feet raised high and swinging from time to time like two sweet ice cream cones.
"The trials in Qiankun Wenqing Valley are far too easy! Truth or dare? Hmph, if I went in here, I could pass them with ease!"
