She glanced at the two of them, her eyes filled with doubt, sensing that something was off about the atmosphere in the tea room.
"I think I just saw Brother Ye Yu leave the teahouse. Did he come here?" Ye Lingxuan asked.
Ye Qian gave a soft "hmm" and said in a low voice, "He came and made a scene, then went back."
"So they really came looking for us?" Ye Lingxuan murmured to herself, her brows furrowing slightly.
Just as she came downstairs, Old Wei told her about how Ye Yu had been following them.
This fact made her very dissatisfied, and in just two days, Ye Lingxuan's impression of Ye Yu took a sharp turn for the worse.
If there was any lingering affection in the past, that affection has now completely faded away.
Ye Lingxuan silently sat back down in her original seat, then changed the subject, saying:
"By the way, I was just thinking about something... When did Young Master Mu meet the examiners for this exam?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qian also became more interested and looked up at Mu Zhian.
Ye Lingxuan was still trying her best to sow discord between me and Ye Qian... Mu Zhian saw through Ye Lingxuan's thoughts at a glance.
"It's a long story, I'll tell you when I have the chance," he said with a smile.
Talking about other girls in front of a girl is a big no-no, and Mu Zhian isn't that stupid.
Seeing that Mu Zhian was not taking the bait at all, Ye Lingxuan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but she didn't continue to test Mu Zhian.
After chatting for a while in the tea room, Mu Zhian ordered the coachman, who was already waiting in front of the teahouse, to take them home.
He originally wanted to personally escort the two back, but Ye Lingxuan was still wary of him, so Mu Zhian did not go back with them.
These things can't be rushed, and Ye Lingxuan's hostility towards him was almost negligible.
My relationship with them will need some time to develop; we can only take it slowly.
Watching the carriage disappear from sight, Mu Zhian withdrew his gaze, intending to return home to assist Bai Ruoxi in her cultivation.
At that moment, he suddenly noticed a slight commotion not far from him.
Mu Zhian looked over and saw Ye Yu, who had just come downstairs, standing in front of the arena. Opposite him was Gongsun Cheng, who had been recuperating from his injuries for several days.
This stepping stone is uncomfortable, so I changed it... But Gongsun Cheng is at the eighth level of Qi Refining, how can Ye Yu fight him?
Mu Zhian mentally complained, but his peripheral vision quickly fell on a chair near the arena.
Lan Mulian, dressed in a moon-white long dress, sat there quietly. Her face was covered by a thin veil, her full and firm breasts pushed up the hem of her dress, and her slender and beautiful figure was hidden under the white dress. Her cold eyes calmly looked at the two people on the stage.
I was planning to find some time to see my senior sister, isn't this a coincidence?
Mu Zhian quietly approached and sat down next to Lan Mulian, his gaze quickly sweeping over her before he said, "Senior Sister, what a coincidence."
Lan Mulian gave a faint "hmm" without looking at him.
"Senior sister, did you read the letter I wrote to you?" Mu Zhian persisted, not giving up.
Lan Mulian nodded reservedly, glanced at him sideways with a playful smile in her eyes, and said, "I did see it, and it is indeed quite a coincidence."
"I had intended to go to that teahouse for a cup of tea, but the innkeeper told me that the teahouse had been reserved for today by the eldest son of the Mu family. He had arranged to meet the Ye family sisters there for tea and a chat."
Mu Zhian: "..."
No wonder my senior sister had this attitude after seeing him. Logically, her mood should have improved after receiving the letter, and she shouldn't have shown such a cold and distant attitude.
As Mu Zhian was pondering how to bring it up, he suddenly noticed a woman with a captivating and alluring figure sitting on a chair not far from Lan Mulian.
A red cheongsam accentuated her long, shapely legs and pert buttocks. She crossed her arms, looked up at the fight on the arena, and her lips, painted with bright rouge, were glossy and supple.
What's Fei Ying doing here...?
Mu Zhian was puzzled for a moment, and his mind inexplicably recalled the various experiences of the past few days.
The day before, when he went to Yangfeng Inn to find Lan Mulian, Fei Ying happened to be there too... That was an accident.
But the second time they fought on the arena, Fei Ying was also watching the fight from nearby.
Then he saw Fei Ying at Yangfeng Inn...
There's one thing in common... every time Fei Ying is accompanied by Lan Mulian.
I remember Master Huang mentioned before that Fei Ying has an older sister in the Liangyi Sect, and she is an inner disciple... Mu Zhian thought to himself, glancing at the passionate Fei Ying and then at the cold and aloof Lan Mulian.
How did Lan Mulian manage to find the best inn in the city on her first day there? And how did she find this teahouse near the arena and choose the tea room with the best view after that?
Based on his previous experiences, Mu Zhian suddenly had a bold guess.
He looked at Lan Mulian's stunning face, which was hidden by a thin veil, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Senior Sister, do you know Sister Fei Ying?"
Lan Mulian glanced at him slightly, a faint smile curving her lips.
"Her surname is Lan."
She paused for a moment, then continued, "When I was chatting with her yesterday, she specifically mentioned you to me."
It really is Senior Sister Lan's sister... Mu Zhian was a little surprised, but he remained calm on the surface and said, "Sister Fei Ying and I do have a pretty good relationship... What did she say?"
"She said you are a very smart child, especially recently you have become very likable... A few days ago you even came to her to ask for special favors and bought five portions of Liuguang soil."
"..."
Mu Zhian began to realize that something was wrong.
Lan Mulian turned her head slightly, staring at Mu Zhian. Her voice was clear and melodious, like an ice cube being dropped into a glass of water. She calmly asked, "How many people did you give the five portions of Radiant Soil to?"
Chapter 74 is both the chosen one and the only 6K.
Mu Zhian looked up at the fight in front of the platform, his expression calm.
Hmm... It may seem calm on the surface, but a storm is brewing inside.
Holy crap... Fei Ying and her senior sister are actually sisters?!
No wonder I saw Fei Ying at Yangfeng Inn before. That wasn't a coincidence; Fei Ying was there to see Lan Mulian... She even arranged the guest room for Lan Mulian.
These two sisters, one charming and the other aloof, would have been quite delighted to hear this news normally.
However, now... he was also somewhat surprised and delighted.
But along with the surprise, there was also considerable psychological pressure.
This means that Lan Mulian may already know about what he did in Tianxuan City, and even what he did to Lan Feiying.
Mu Zhian noticed a coldness in Lan Mulian's pupils that he had never seen before. Her eyes, clear and bright like a cold pool, stared at him silently, waiting for his answer.
If I give the wrong answer here, the senior sister storyline will probably be over... Mu Zhian thought to himself.
"The glazed soil can preserve medicinal herbs. I kept one portion at home, gave one portion to my senior sister, and plan to bring the rest into the Liangyi Sect."
Mu Zhian sighed softly, a hint of worry in his eyes: "After all, this trip is to the Liangyi Sect. The Mu family's influence cannot extend into the sect. If the sect lacks any medicinal herbs in the future, I think Liuguangtu might be able to trade with others, or Liuguangtu might be able to preserve the medicinal herbs after obtaining them."
As he spoke, he took out a box from his storage ring, opened it, and what came into view was dust emitting starlight.
In terms of quantity, there are exactly three portions.
Although the distorted information almost caused a disaster, Mu Zhian was not too panicked, since he was telling the truth.
Although he asked Lan Feiying for five portions of Liuguang Soil, he only gave one portion to Bai Ruoxi, one portion to Senior Sister Lan, and kept the rest for himself.
"Why did you suddenly ask this, Senior Sister?" Mu Zhi'an asked with a puzzled look.
Lan Mulian narrowed her eyes, staring straight at him, and said, "It's nothing, I was just asking casually."
That look seemed to have softened a little.
She quickly changed the subject, smiling slightly, "Once you join the Liangyi Sect, you will be a disciple of the sect. If you encounter any difficulties, I will help you as appropriate."
She smiled... which means she's in a better mood, and that's a good thing.
Mu Zhian breathed a sigh of relief.
The relationship between his senior sister and him is rather special. They can only be considered "online friends" at present, and they have not met in person many times. Mu Zhian has never been quite sure what kind of feelings Lan Mulian has for him.
Only now, when she mentioned the five portions of Liuguang Soil and questioned who he had given them to, could Mu Zhian be certain that his aloof senior sister still cared about him somewhat.
"Senior sister is so kind. Did you help other disciples like this before?" Mu Zhi'an asked with a smile.
Lan Mulian said calmly, "It depends on the situation."
"If I help every disciple who is in trouble, how can I possibly keep up with all the work?"
It means that I hold a rather special place in her heart... Mu Zhian understood what she meant and was immediately relieved.
Judging from her appearance, my senior sister is not a big-breasted, brainless person. On the contrary, she is an extremely intelligent woman.
This is a good thing, but if he joins the Liangyi Sect in the future and walks with other girls, there is a possibility that he will be caught... just like what happened at the auction house today and yesterday.
"Did you go to the auction house yesterday to see Sister Fei Ying?" Mu Zhi'an suddenly asked.
He was wondering yesterday why Lan Mulian would go to the Morning Light Auction House. After all, a homebody like her doesn't like those lively places, so there was no reason for her to go to the Morning Light Auction House.
But Lan Mulian had a reason to see her younger sister.
Lan Mulian nodded slightly, then glanced at Mu Zhian casually and said with a faint smile, "If I hadn't gone to the auction house yesterday, I wouldn't have seen that interesting scene."
Mu Zhian coughed lightly and said, "Miss Huang invited me to the auction, so I went."
“By the way,” Mu Zhian took out a small box from his storage ring and handed it to Lan Mulian, saying, “This is the pill I made from the Beast King Vine before.”
Lan Mulian nodded slightly, put the pill into her storage ring, and looked up at the two people on the high platform.
"Who do you think will win?" Lan Mulian suddenly asked.
Mu Zhian then looked up at the two people on the high platform.
On the stage, Ye Yu stood tall and straight, dressed in a black robe, with a sword on his back.
Opposite him, Gongsun Cheng was dressed in luxurious robes. In fact, he was quite handsome, but his somewhat sinister triangular eyes made people feel uneasy, as if they were being stared at by a venomous snake.
Mu Zhian pondered for a moment and said, "Gongsun Cheng's injuries should not have fully healed yet, but he is still at the eighth level of Qi Refining."
The difference between the eighth rank of Qi Refining and the first rank of Qi Refining is too great. Even if Ye Yu has the protagonist template, he can't possibly try to take advantage of Gongsun Cheng.
Lan Mulian nodded silently.
"The spiritual energy in Ye Yu's body is somewhat special; it doesn't entirely belong to him. He has great talent, but he's too impatient."
"Maybe I've really pushed him too far..." Mu Zhian thought to himself.
