Bai Susu thought for a long while but couldn’t figure out who dared to curse her.
Could it be... this guy surnamed Chen secretly cursing her in his heart?
The blonde girl scratched her face, utterly puzzled.
"True Inheritor Bai, it’s all thanks to your help this time," Chen Ye said gratefully.
He never expected that the ill-tempered True Inheritor Bai would come to Lisong Valley today.
Seeing the emptiness of Lisong Valley, she waved her hand and directly allowed him to recruit people freely.
Initially, Chen Ye only wanted to recruit ten people.
With Lin Qiongyu’s father, Lin Jinghua, leading the way, he could always recruit some cultivators with nowhere to go.
But now, with True Inheritor Bai stationed here, the Wei family’s intimidation lessened, and within just half a two-hour period, he recruited ten people!
Moreover, Chen Ye specifically selected twenty skilled peach farmers from the Wei Family’s peach orchard!
After all, Chen Ye was a petty person...
"Alright, alright, no need to act like you’ve never seen the world."
Bai Susu impatiently waved her hand, interrupting Chen Ye’s gratitude, her bright golden eyes holding a hint of confusion,
"By the way, does your Lisong Garden need so many people to help? Thirty... I’m afraid the sect won’t pay you such a huge reward."
Chen Ye smiled, "True Inheritor Bai may not know, actually only fifteen cultivators are for handling Lisong Valley’s daily spirit plants while the other fifteen are recruited under the name of Lisong Valley for my personal use. Naturally, I will pay their wages."
Since Chen Ye was on the path of alchemy and backed by Lisong Valley, a large medicinal garden, he naturally had to make use of it.
He specifically recruited fifteen Spirit Plant Cultivators intending to plant his own alchemy spirit plants in the spare fields of Lisong Valley.
In this way, he would no longer lack low-level spirit plants for alchemy.
"Is that so..."
Bai Susu nodded thoughtfully, swinging her fair legs, and sneered,
"Hmph, to dare talk about stealing sect resources right in front of me!"
Chen Ye, as always, went along with her, satisfying the girl’s vanity.
His posture was so respectful as if worshiping a deity:
"Everything I do is under the majesty of True Inheritor Bai, only then dare I have such presumptions."
He paused, then added, "If in the future, I refine any pills, I am willing to share the profits with the True Inheritor."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Bai Susu’s bright golden eyes finally showed a hint of satisfaction.
What she wanted was never just a measly share of profits.
What she wanted was the man in front of her, this kind of wholehearted, undivided submission and reverence.
"Hmph, at least you know what’s good for you."
Bai Susu huffed lightly, jumping off the stone bench, with her hands behind her back, she walked around Chen Ye with her fair legs, and finally spoke in a lazy tone, like bestowing a favor,
"A measly share of profits? I couldn’t care less. But since you have the heart, I’ll handle this matter for you. If anyone asks in the future, just say these fifteen people were sent by me. As for the Wei Family, if they dare come looking for trouble...
Bai Susu’s lips curled into a cold smile, starkly contrasting with her charming appearance:
"...just tell them to come directly to me."
"Thank you, True Inheritor Bai!"
Chen Ye expressed his gratitude once again, tears almost spilling out.
Ah, little girls are easy to please, especially ones like Bai Susu...
Just a few sweet words, and she’d take on everything for him.
With Bai Susu’s promise, he was now firmly established in Lisong Valley.
No matter how powerful the Wei Family was, they were just an affiliated family.
But Bai Susu was the true prodigy of the Lingyin Sect, destined to become a Golden Core True Man, or even a Nascent Soul True Monarch!
As long as he didn’t commit the enormous crime of treason, with her backing, he could rest easy.
"Alright, alright," Bai Susu waved her hand impatiently, "I was just wandering around out of boredom, and now that this matter is settled, I should head to the Three Thousand Great Mountains to deal with serious matters..."
Chen Ye’s heart moved.
Recently, Bai Susu had suddenly disappeared, and now she appeared and was rushing to the Three Thousand Great Mountains again.
Could it be... has something major happened lately?
"May I ask True Inheritor Bai, what have you been busy with these days?" Chen Ye looked up at Bai Susu.
"How dare you! Are you trying to pry news from me?"
Bai Susu frowned, clearly displeased.
In her eyes, Chen Ye was just her little pet, with no reason to inquire about his master’s affairs.
But when Chen Ye looked up, seeing that familiar face, her heart skipped a beat.
Chen Ye paused, showing a gentle smile, explaining:
"Some time ago, True Inheritor Bai left without notice, making me quite worried... Besides, not seeing you these days, both of my disciples miss True Inheritor Bai a bit..."
"Hmph! Using disciples as an excuse, aren’t you? I bet it’s you who... cough, cough."
Bai Susu started to speak but then realized.
How that sounded... sounded a bit odd.
How infuriating, looking so much like her father, yet daring to have improper thoughts about her!!
She abruptly turned around, leaving Chen Ye with a puffed-up back, to hide her slightly flushed cheeks:
"In any case, it’s none of your business! It’s just that the Refining God Sect’s Golden Core True Man had a little accident while crossing the Nascent Soul Tribulation..."
After speaking, she didn’t give Chen Ye a chance to respond, transformed into a golden streak, disappearing into the sky.
