The little girl was very angry.
She looked at Bai Wuji, who was having a lively conversation with her master, and felt a nameless fire rushing to the top of her head.
Is this man’s eyeballs glued to Master?
Hmph!
It’s all Master’s fault for not adhering to male virtues!
Since... Master is so charming, he should be cultivating in the Quiet Chamber all the time and not go outside!
As Master, he should be patiently waiting for us to grow up!
Only after she grows up should Master find a Dao companion!
Pouting angrily, she poked her little head out from behind the big tree.
Her bright, phoenix eyes glared at Bai Wushuang fiercely, like a fluffy little kitten on the verge of bristling.
Even if...
Even if the person opposite is very powerful, Qing Jun must defend her Master!
"Shh—"
Just as she was about to rush out to uphold justice and drive away this smelly man,
another small hand reached out from behind the tree, unceremoniously pressing her little head back.
Zhiwei placed her index finger on her lips and gently shook her head at her upset junior sister, signaling her to keep quiet.
Unlike the straightforward mind of the little girl, the older girl tended to think more.
One must remember, this person is here to evaluate the Guardian of Lisong Valley.
If they anger the Guardian, it might have a negative impact on her master...
Therefore,
Zhiwei thought it best to endure for now.
Just like she endures Lin Qiongyu staying in the small place that belongs to the three of them as master and disciples.
As long as it’s for Master, a little grievance is nothing.
At this moment, Chen Ye was unaware,
that his obedient disciple was actually jealous of a man!
He was leading the complexly expressioned Bai Guardian, introducing the brightly blooming glazed flowers in Xiaguang Garden.
Of course,
The twin flowers had already been picked by him in advance.
Suffice it to say, at first, his young disciple was considering drinking this glazed tea...
Although it’s expensive, he is the best master in the world! He fulfills any and all of his disciple’s requests!
Surely, the two girls will be moved to tears later.
"Steward Chen," Bai Wuji looked at the miraculous scene before him and, unable to hold back, asked, "Are you truly born as a Loose Cultivator?"
"Indeed." Chen Ye nodded his head.
Bai Wuji fell silent.
A Loose Cultivator possessing such incredible Spirit Plant Technique is simply astounding.
He looked at Chen Ye, the face bearing some resemblance to his brother Bai Li, and the idea in his mind became even more clear and intense.
Perhaps this person truly has an unknown connection with his brother.
His brother is famous in the Yan Kingdom’s Cultivation Realm for magical battles.
But unbeknownst to many, his brother’s Spirit Plant Technique is also extremely advanced!
No wonder the young lady regards him so highly.
Appearance alone is insufficient to gain her favor, but when combined with Spirit Plant Technique...
Bai Wuji churned through countless thoughts, but on his face, he remained composed.
He merely nodded and said indifferently: "Not bad. You seem not completely useless."
He didn’t say much more, simply standing with his hands behind his back, continuing to survey the other medicinal fields in the valley.
With each step, his astonishment grew.
Whether it was the Lower Grade Spirit Plants supplied to the Market, or the rare herbs exclusively provided to Alchemists, all of these, under Chen Ye’s management, had restored seven to eight parts vitality, even surpassing what it was before the cold disaster.
Such means are not ordinary Spirit Plant cultivator capabilities.
"Steward Chen."
Finally, after inspecting the last field, Bai Wuji couldn’t hold back anymore. Looking at Chen Ye, he couldn’t help but praise,
"You... are excellent. The sect is fortunate to have you as the supervisor of Lisong Valley."
This time, he couldn’t find any fault.
Trying to find fault forcibly would go against his own Dao heart.
Once he returns, he plans to speak well of Chen in front of the sect elders.
Of course—this is all on the premise that Chen Ye indeed harbors no inappropriate thoughts towards Bai Susu!
"The Guardian has overpraised." Chen Ye’s expression didn’t change, "This is merely my duty."
"Hmm." Bai Wuji nodded, contemplated for a moment, and eventually steered the topic towards the true purpose of his visit.
"Let me ask you, do you know Bai Susu?"
Chen Ye’s heart stirred.
So, this old man is so agitated, perhaps suspecting he tricked Bai Susu?
"Replying to the Guardian, I owe a debt to True Inheritor Bai, so naturally, I know True Inheritor Bai."
"Then... has the young lady of the Bai Family ever visited your Lisong Valley?" Bai Wuji asked again.
This time, he exuded an intimidating aura, his tiger eyes fixed on Chen Ye.
Chen Ye’s mind tightened, feeling Bai Wuji’s divine sense locking onto him, allowing no falsehood:
"Guardian, I swear. True Inheritor Bai... indeed visited here."
Subsequently, Bai Wuji asked Chen Ye several more questions in succession.
Only after clearing his suspicions did he wave his hand: "Alright then, seems the young lady’s disappearance truly has nothing to do with you."
Chen Ye couldn’t help but gripe silently.
Bai Wuji appears to be Bai Susu’s uncle, so why keep referring to her as the young lady?
Recalling Bai Susu’s fickle temperament, Chen Ye suddenly had some understanding, seems Bai Susu is also someone who does as she pleases in her family...
Before leaving,
Bai Wuji suddenly asked a seemingly random question: "What is your opinion of the young lady?"
"...Innocent and kind, friendly to people."
"Be honest! What do you truly think of her?"
"Um... I keep my distance."
