Chapter 81: Chapter 81 Wait, no, you you you... (10k)

Five days later, according to plan, everyone finally arrived at a remote town called Yunlan Town.

There was a supply station of the Taiqing Sect here, which was where everyone would rest this time around.

"Greetings, senior brothers!"

Guarding this place were three outer court disciples at only the Qi Condensation stage five or six. They looked quite aged, with one even having hair as white as snow.

Normally, they had no chance to mingle with the sect’s core disciples. Now seeing this group of young people, each exuding a calm and restrained aura, they were overwhelmed with excitement and respect, hastily preparing rooms and meals.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Yan Xiaohu appeared stern, casually tossing five or six spirit stones over. The three quickly caught them, their eyes brimming with gratitude.

Zhou Qing glanced at their timid expressions and sighed softly. But Third Brother, normally so stingy, was being unexpectedly generous today?

Noticing Zhou Qing’s puzzled look, Yan Xiaohu looked around stealthily to make sure no one was paying attention, then reverted to his usual roguish demeanor.

"People like them are in various parts of the Taiqing Sect. They know their cultivation talent is lacking and that reaching the Qi Condensation stage is their best bet in this life. So, they voluntarily apply to serve in such places; otherwise, they would be mere cannon fodder anywhere else."

"Furthermore, after serving for a certain number of years, if their descendants have cultivation talent, the sect will prioritize and grant them the opportunity to undergo evaluations, paving the way for their progeny."

Hearing the Third Brother’s words, Zhou Qing’s heart was a mixture of emotions.

He didn’t know whether to pity or admire them.

He also understood Third Brother’s previous actions.

"Alright, finish eating and get some rest early. We have to continue our journey tomorrow!" Yan Xiaohu said, looking at the simple dishes on the table.

Zhou Qing nodded.

He then placed the old hen on the ground, giving it some food. After eating spirit stone powder for so long, it must be getting tired of it, so an occasional change to simpler food was good.

Just as they started eating, the door opened, and a girl with a face covered in soot and messy hair walked in with more food.

"Please, Immortals, help yourselves!"

The girl lowered her head, carefully placing the dishes on the table, every move exuding humility. Then she silently retreated towards the door.

As Zhou Qing was about to pick up some food, an inexplicable feeling arose in his heart, sensing something off.

He suddenly turned his head to look at the maid now at the door.

Because at that moment, above her head was a glaring string of golden characters—[So Clever].

Zhou Qing was instantly dumbfounded, his heart like a turbulent sea.

He subconsciously rubbed his eyes, barely believing what he saw.

Then, with a hint of uncertainty, he probed, "Sister Lu?"

At this moment, Yan Xiaohu, who was ravenous and devouring baozi, looked puzzled at Zhou Qing, saying, "What did you say?"

Zhou Qing’s gaze remained fixed on the girl at the door. He spoke again, more certain this time, "Lu Yaoyao?"

Clang—

The plate fell from the girl’s hands as her body trembled slightly. Then, she suddenly looked up, her eyes bright as she stared at Zhou Qing.

At this moment, her heart was full of surprise and emotion.

Despite her best efforts to blend in as a local, she didn’t expect Zhou Qing to recognize her so quickly.

So impressive!

Next, she grinned broadly, her smile as radiant and charming as the sunniest blossom.

"Brother Zhou, how did you find me out?"

Lu Yaoyao, no longer disguising herself, looked overjoyed.

Seeing the cheerful girl hopping over, Zhou Qing still found it hard to believe.

And looking at the mischievous sister, Yan Xiaohu, who was chewing on half-eaten baozi, let it roll out of his mouth.

"Wait, you... why are you here?" Yan Xiaohu felt a sudden jolt, swiftly scanning with a powerful divine sense.

But he didn’t detect any traces of Li Daoxuan, He Han, or others.

And when you entered earlier, why did I sense no spiritual power from you?

Lu Yaoyao, seeing their surprised faces, seemed genuinely happy.

Upon learning they were heading to Cyan Wood City, she quickly made up her mind, finding the way and route overnight and secretly departing without the senior brothers knowing.

Considering Yan Xiaohu and others’ higher cultivation and faster Sword Control speed, she practically didn’t rest, hurrying to this place.

Here, even if they wanted to send messages, the sect wouldn’t receive them, just the right distance away.

...

"So, you snuck out?"

At the dinner table, Yan Xiaohu asked while eating. He didn’t mind too much, thinking it lively to have a sister along, making the journey less dull.

He was just worried about potential dangers and the hassle of reporting back to the Master if she got hurt.

Lu Yaoyao nodded, "You could say that. Mainly, I wanted to get away; it was too boring at the sect. By the way, Brother Zhou, how did you recognize me?"

"I barely raised my head, and I disguised my voice and appearance. I even stuck a Qi Concealment Talisman on me."

Yan Xiaohu also looked at Zhou Qing, curious.

Zhou Qing didn’t know how to explain for a moment. After thinking, he pointed to his nose.

The two instantly understood.

Lu Yaoyao felt a wave of frustration, How could I forget about that?
