Chapter 151 The Legacy of the Mysterious Woman?

Shen Youqing's lips twitched at the unexpected reason, then he said seriously, "To be honest, when have I ever hit her unless she came over looking for a beating?"

Jiang Chenying thought about it and realized that it was indeed true.

Thinking of Shen Qiuluo's current well-behaved and obedient state, one can only say that she has been beaten too many times and has become docile.

Good.

Jiang Chenying remained silent for a moment, and the others also fell silent, making the private room quiet.

After a moment, Jiang Chenying's cold, deep voice rang out, "So she came to Qingyu Sect for Second Junior Brother?"

Shen Youqing paused.

To be honest, he truly lives up to his reputation as the top disciple of the Qingyu Sect; his mind is incredibly sharp.

Seeing this, Jiang Chenying knew she had guessed correctly.

For a moment, Jiang Chenying couldn't quite describe her feelings, but she definitely felt uncomfortable.

"Why do you think that?" Shen Youqing asked instead of answering.

“A top-grade fire spirit root makes one a born alchemist. The Shen family’s plan for her is to become an alchemist, and Venerable Lin of the Lingxiao Sect is the number one alchemist in the world.” Jiang Chenying’s voice was icy. “With Venerable Lin ahead of her, there’s no reason for her to look up to these Venerables of the Qingyu Sect, unless she has ulterior motives.”

At this point, Jiang Chenying glanced at Xie Changyan.

It has to be said that the second junior brother certainly has the looks to be a femme fatale.

Xie Changyan put down his teacup and said coldly, "Senior Brother, can you please stop being so disgusting before meals?"

He really needs to wonder if he was some kind of vicious person in his past life, otherwise how could he be loved by a ruthless girl in this life?

"Why are you so averse to her?" Jiang Chenying asked curiously, noticing the look of rejection in Xie Changyan's eyes and brows.

Did Shen Qiulu do something excessive to her second junior brother?

Xie Changyan said coldly, "You'll understand once you've seen Fei Xuwan's face."

Jiang Chenying fell into deep thought.

The second junior brother has brought this up more than once, so it seems we need to be wary of this junior sister.

Elder Shen sat quietly to one side, calmly holding his teacup.

Anyway, he has already pledged allegiance to the young master. As long as the young master is safe and sound, the others are not that important.

Shen Youqing took a sip of tea.

Xiao Ke sat quietly to one side, holding a teacup and drinking tea.

After the meal, the group went to the inn.

Shen Youqing had just arrived at the door when Xiao Ke arrived right behind him.

Seeing the man's somewhat suspicious and wary look, Xiao Ke said seriously, "It's important business."

"Really?" Shen Youqing was skeptical.

Xiao Ke responded, his expression remaining serious and clear.

After much hesitation, Shen Youqing decided to give him another chance and pushed open the door.

After Shen Youqing closed the door and sat down at the table, Xiao Ke didn't beat around the bush and asked directly, "Do you want to hear about Shen Qiuluo?"

"Tell me about it." Shen Youqing reached out and poured a cup of tea, handing it to him.

When you have nothing to do, you need some fun to pass the time.

Xiao Ke took the teacup, holding the hot tea, and said, "She once accidentally entered a secret realm. Her cultivation level improved so quickly, she must have received a legacy."

Shen Youqing raised an eyebrow.

It's not surprising that Shen Qiuluo could find a secret realm since she has memories of her past life.

"Is there anything else?" Shen Youqing asked, somewhat losing interest.

Seeing her lack of interest, Xiao Ke dropped a bombshell: "If the information is correct, she has probably stumbled into the Mysterious Maiden's Secret Realm."

Shen Youqing paused, his eyes suddenly becoming unreadable.

If that's the case, then it explains why Shen Qiuluo was so calm and collected.

But... does the Xuan Nu's legacy truly still exist? "You should know the stories about the Xuan Nu. She is also known as the Goddess." Xiao Ke's clear voice slowly said, "If she has truly obtained the Xuan Nu's legacy, your father and the Shen family will definitely take it seriously."

As Xiao Ke finished speaking, Shen Youqing took a sip of tea and then appropriately displayed a degree of caution and seriousness.

The Xuan Nu's inheritance involves too many things, and the Five Sects and Eight Families have always coveted it.

It's not surprising that Shen Qiuluo would be interested in the Xuan Nu's legacy.

It's just a pity that her hopes were dashed.

"If Shen Qiuluo truly obtained the Xuan Nu's inheritance, would she be so low-key?" Shen Youqing raised his doubts. "And if she were truly born from the Xuan Nu's inheritance, shouldn't she be born with extraordinary phenomena?"

I thought she was holding back some big move, but it turned out to be just this?
I definitely overestimated her.

Seeing Shen Youqing calmly raise his doubts, Xiao Ke nodded and said, "This is also a point of doubt for my Xiao family, but that's all the information we have from our investigation."

Seeing Xiao Ke's cold and stern expression, Shen Youqing raised her hand to support her cheek and said slowly, "Whether it's true or not, we'll know at the sect conference three months from now."

Xiao Ke looked at Shen Youqing, puzzled.

How do we know that?
The Mysterious Woman's legacy has never appeared for tens of thousands of years, and no one knows what the contents of the legacy are.

Why was Shen Youqing so certain?

"I'll keep you in suspense for now," Shen Youqing said with a smile.

Looking at Shen Youqing, who was resting her chin on her hand in a relaxed and casual manner, Xiao Ke lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea at a suitable temperature.

"The Xiao family's information is usually accurate, so I think you need to prepare early," Xiao Ke advised.

Shen Youqing nodded.

The room fell silent. Xiao Ke didn't want to leave, and Shen Youqing didn't say anything either, as she fell into thought.

The Xiao family's information has never been wrong, which means that Shen Qiuluo has indeed obtained the inheritance, an inheritance that is... convincing enough to fool people.

How can we remind people that there are genuine and fake traditions?
"Senior brother, could you help me investigate?" Shen Youqing looked up at Xiao Ke, "to see if there is any inheritance that is very similar to the Xuan Nu inheritance."

Xiao Ke reacted extremely quickly, "You mean Shen Qiuluo obtained a fake inheritance?"

Shen Youqing smiled, her eyebrows curving upwards, but said nothing.

Xiao Ke left behind a storage ring and went to find Xiao Youqi.

Shen Youqing's deduction is not without reason; it is really unlikely that the Xuan Nu would choose someone like Shen Qiuluo to inherit the legacy.

After Xiao Ke left, Shen Youqing picked up the ring on the table.

Shen Youqing assumed it was a congratulatory gift from Xiao Ke, but when she scanned it with her divine sense, she was dumbfounded.

No, he really gave it to me?!
Shen Youqing couldn't sit still any longer and hurriedly went to find Xiao Ke.

After Xiao Ke finished speaking, he came out of his elder brother's room and was immediately blocked by Shen Youqing.

Seeing the storage ring Shen Youqing handed over, Xiao Ke decisively pretended not to understand, "What's wrong?"

"What do you think?" Seeing Xiao Ke's attitude, Shen Youqing prepared to directly and forcefully return the favor.

Is he stupid!
Xiao Ke stepped back to avoid it, saying, "There's quite a lot of stuff. We just organized it yesterday. Do you think it's not enough?"

"..." Shen Youqing looked at Xiao Ke with a speechless expression.

Where did she express that she felt it wasn't enough?
She was clearly screaming "I dare not accept this!"

"Keep it." Xiao Ke raised his hand and patted Shen Youqing's head. "I remember your talisman brush wasn't very good. If you have the chance, go to the auction house and pick out a better one."

Having lived two lives, Shen Youqing had never seen anyone like this before!

Before anything was even settled, he had already given away his entire fortune.

Is he really not afraid of being scammed?

Do I look like a good person?
Shen Youqing, holding the storage ring, asked with a complicated expression, "If I may be so bold as to ask, are you penniless now?"

“There are also some spiritual plants and elixirs,” Xiao Ke replied.

After answering, Xiao Ke said unhurriedly, "This is not a betrothal gift. I was just worried that you might find something you like but don't have enough spirit stones to buy it. You can accept it without worry."

Even if it's not a betrothal gift, she can't accept it!
As soon as Shen Youqing reached out his hand, Xiao Ke took three steps back.
