Chapter 152: He Knew the Little Junior Brother He Raised Better Than Anyone
Acting? What act? His Da Shixiong is also at the Deity Transformation stage.
As Lin Qingyue spoke with beaming eyes, Zhao Quanâs expression changed. This group was not to be trifled with.
He forced a stiff smile, turning to leave.
Clatter!
With a crisp sound, Bai Douâs hand tossed a bead beside the fire pit.
Lin Qingyue looked down and reached out to pick up the bead, wondering which nook or cranny Bai Dou had scavenged it from.
Before the object had even rested in his hand for two seconds, it was snatched away.
“Where did you people get this?” Tang Yu demanded loudly, holding the item. “This belongs to Senior Brother Gongsun; how did it end up in your hands?”
Bai Dou wiped its hands, clearly annoyed by her loud voice, and burrowed into Ye Jingxianâs embrace.
This troublemaker Bai Dou, Lin Qingyue thought speechlessly. He hadn’t even noticed the object, nor did he know when it had been picked up.
The womanâs shout was loud enough that everyone else turned to look.
In an instant, the people near the entrance of Tianliao Mountain were all staring at them, wondering what was happening.
Ye Jingxian remained unruffled, his expression cool. He simply spoke softly to Bai Dou, “Bai Dou, since they say the item is theirs, we will return it to them.”
As he spoke, he patted the spirit pet. “Next time, don’t pick up random things.”
His tone was so light and breezy that Zhao Quan, Tang Yu, and their group frowned. “Shouldn’t you explain yourselves?”
“Why was my Senior Brother Gongsun’s item in the hands of your spirit pet? Didn’t you claim earlier that you hadn’t encountered that group of bandits and had no clues?”
Tang Yu looked at them with suspicion. “I knew it. Why else would you give so many Fire Spirit Flower Dates to a spirit pet? You must have obtained our storage bags and kept them against your conscience.”
As for how they obtained the storage bags, that was up to everyoneâs imagination.
More than one group had been robbed, so anyone who had fallen victim looked at Lin Qingyue and Ye Jingxian with eyes full of suspicion.
Within the group, however, neither Lin Qingyue nor Ye Jingxianâs expressions changed in the slightest.
Lin Qingyue simply thought: Against our conscience? No, we just have no conscience. The crooked ideas were all his, so he wasn’t afraid at all. He was as calm as could be.
Ye Jingxian was expressionless, while Ming Yu maintained a faint smile. Both were steady as old dogs, their mental fortitude excellent. Yuan An and the others had no reason to feel guilty either.
The only one feeling guilty was Yu Qianqian. She looked uncomfortably at her Senior Brothers. Yuan An, sensing her unease, handed the water in his hand to her.
He smiled and asked, “Thirsty? Want a sip?”
The water flask was right in front of Yu Qianqian, not far from her lips. This sudden movement made Yu Qianqian blush instantly; she was both shocked and shy.
Why is someone who kept his distance before suddenly acting like this!
“It’s clean, I haven’t touched it,” Yuan An explained.
“I wouldn’t mind even if you had drunk from it.” Afraid he would take it back, Yu Qianqian quickly accepted it.
Only after speaking did she realize her words were too… unreserved. However, on second thought, she was the one actively pursuing him. Yuan An was destined to be hers, so what was wrong with sharing water?
Yuan An, who saw her expression clearly, let out a low, soft chuckle. “Mn.”
Li Jing scoffed coldly, speaking with absolutely no politeness. “With that impoverished look of your Chi Xiao Sect, what could you possibly have thatâs worth coveting? Saying we took your thingsâaren’t you afraid of making people laugh?”
He raised his head arrogantly and snorted again. “Isn’t it just a broken bead? Someone probably threw it away in disgust, and who knows from which corner our Bai Dou picked it up. Didn’t you see that even it was disgusted, throwing it straight into the fire?”
“I wonder if that broken thing dirtied our Bai Dou’s hands. What don’t we have? As if we’d want your meager scraps.”
Strong. Too strong.
Lin Qingyue felt that Li Jing had improved. These two paragraphs of dialogue were enough to drive someone crazy, if not to death.
In the future, if he angered his Little Martial Uncle into bed, it might really turn into a ‘forced love’ scenario.
His mind drifted a bit too far. He snapped back to reality and played along. “Exactly. Isn’t it just two handfuls of Fire Spirit Flower Dates? So you guys consider that a lot? Just how poor are you? Making such a fuss over a few spirit fruitsâhow are you poorer than us sword cultivators?”
Lin Qingyue spoke very earnestly, looking genuinely confused. His calm and breezy tone was inexplicably stifling to the listeners.
“You… you people are simply bullying us too much!” Tang Yu pointed at them, trembling with rage.
“Fire Spirit Flower Dates are only found in secret realms; they aren’t easy to buy. I don’t care if you truly don’t know their value or are just pretending to talk big. Hand over our things now.”
Lin Qingyue was truly shocked. Without any evidence, she just opened her mouth and claimed they did it. How was this person even more shameless than him, throwing accusations around so casually?
Although they did do it, so what? That was called removing harm for the people and obtaining resources through legitimate means.
Tang Yu moved her finger, pointing at Lin Qingyue as she continued, “As the saying goes, ‘If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked.’ Your spirit pet steals things, so you can’t be any good either.”
Ye Jingxian, who had been leading Lin Qingyue ever since he joined the sect, finally spared the other party a glance.
But his eyes were full of chill, and his entire aura shifted. The coldness radiating from him made everyone present feel a creepy sense of dread.
He sneered. “‘Upper beam is not straight, lower beam is crooked.’ How interesting.”
He knew the Little Junior Brother he raised better than anyone. What gave them the nerve to judge and curse him?
Lin Qingyue rarely saw his Da Shixiong like this. It was clear he was truly angry.
Being able to make Ye Jingxian angry required a special kind of talent.
Seeing that he was about to draw his sword and the people opposite were alert and ready to fight, Lin Qingyue hurriedly grabbed his Da Shixiong.
“Da Shixiong,” he called out. “Da Shixiong, I have a way.”
Don’t get angry yet. Damaging your health isn’t worth it.
Lin Qingyue smiled and looked at Tang Yu. “You have Fire Spirit Flower Dates? How many?”
As he spoke, his gaze shifted to the others. “You guys have Fire Spirit Flower Dates too? How many? Let me see.”
Tang Yu: “Hmph, we spent a long time buying fifty of them. Senior Sister Chang and the others have the same amount. This is just a portion; there are others.”
Lin Qingyue chuckled softly. “Let’s not talk about the others. Just speaking of these Fire Spirit Flower Datesâa mere one hundred is worth showing off?”
He looked speechless, returning their look of ‘you are uncultured.’
Hearing this, Yu Qianqian beside him couldn’t care less about Yuan An anymore. She suspected… Does Lin Shixiong really have that many?
In the next moment, Lin Qingyue directly pulled out a large basket of Fire Spirit Flower Dates, spreading his hands innocently. “Is this a lot? It’s alright, I guess! Our Bai Dou eats them like cabbage.”
