Junior Sister naturally felt sorry for Ye Liang, and couldn't tolerate anyone picking on him.

Think about Qin Shaoyang; because of a few wrong words he said about Ye Liang, his junior sister scolded him for so long.

Besides, Sun Qingyu is already annoying enough, so naturally, Junior Sister won't let him off the hook.

"Junior Sister, don't act rashly. Sun Qingyu is quite strong. Even if he can't defeat you, he'll go home to get reinforcements. The Eternal Sect is an ancient sect with a history of over a thousand years. It has tens of thousands of disciples, and its experts are numerous. It's definitely not easy to provoke them. Junior Sister, you should be patient for now. Please let Young Master Ye decide this matter. Don't cause trouble for Young Master Ye." Meng Xiaoru immediately urged her junior sister with concern and worry, telling her not to act rashly.

"What's so great about the Eternal Sect! We said we wouldn't give the Haoqi Sect any face, and we still crippled one of their Golden Core elders. Even if the Eternal Sect came, as long as they're unreasonable, it's the same—we'd cripple them without hesitation!" Although the junior sister was worried about creating another powerful enemy for her still weak sect, she was still stubborn and wouldn't let her sect lose face in front of Meng Xiaoru. Her words of encouragement were still loud and clear.

My junior sister is still the same incredibly adorable junior sister she always was. When she talks big but is actually worried inside, she's even more adorable and makes you want to cherish and protect her.

Although it was just boasting, it still made Meng Xiaoru a little uneasy.

"Young Master Ye, you've crippled a Golden Core elder? That must mean you have a deep-seated grudge against the Haoqi Sect." Meng Xiaoru said with a wry smile.

This young master Ye really dares to do anything!

Putting aside whether others have the ability to cripple someone else's Golden Core, the audacity to make an enemy of a major sect is something not everyone dares to do.

"Really? Maybe. But Ye Liang always acts with discretion. Since he dared to do this, he must have some confidence. Sister Xiaoru, you don't need to worry too much. Everything should be fine." Although the junior sister was worried about Ye Liang, she still had to say it this way.

She could keep her worries to herself and worry about Ye Liang alone. She would just work hard to increase her strength so that no matter how powerful the enemy was in the future, she could fight alongside Ye Liang.

Why say it out loud and make everyone worry?

The junior sister also believed that the senior sister and the second senior sister must think the same way, and that they were all increasing their strength so that they could face any life-or-death crisis with Ye Liang in the future.

"That's good." Since her junior sister said that, and she wasn't so worried, Meng Xiaoru felt much more at ease.

Just as she was feeling at ease, a golden light suddenly appeared beside her. The golden light transformed into a scroll and floated in front of her.

The junior sister immediately reached out and took the scroll. She opened it, and a girl's figure and voice appeared inside.

These scrolls that transmit images and sounds seem magical, so Meng Xiaoru examined them closely and became very curious about them.

The junior sister spoke to the girl in the scroll, and then the scroll in her hand transformed into a burst of golden light, soaring into the sky and disappearing.

After finishing her conversation with someone inside the scroll, the junior sister ran outside to call Ye Liang.

"Ye Liang, Ye Liang, Junior Sister Nana sent a message via wild geese to ask about our itinerary. She said she will be waiting for us at Nanfeng Ferry tomorrow with a boat."

"Tell your senior sister that we can reach Nanfeng Ferry by mid-morning tomorrow! Tell her the approximate time, so she doesn't have to wait from early morning. We'll make her wait too long," Ye Liang instructed as he came over to his senior sister's room.

Upon seeing Meng Xiaoru in his senior sister's room, Ye Liang immediately said to her, "Miss Meng, just now in the backyard downstairs, I told Sun Qingyu and his men that fishing was a magic trick, just to tease them. Don't believe me. We're friends. I only said that to Sun Qingyu. As for you, of course I wouldn't lie to you. Otherwise, you'd blame me for deceiving you too."

Upon hearing this, Meng Xiaoru immediately bowed to Ye Liang with some delight, saying, "Thank you for telling me the truth, young master. However, it's too late; my junior sister has already told me. I know everything. You are truly a master of talismans; this talisman that can transmit sound and image must have been given to my junior sister by you, right?"

Meng Xiaoru was overjoyed. Ye Liang didn't know that she already knew the truth from her senior sister, but he still chose to tell her the truth honestly as soon as they met. This special treatment made her extremely happy.

"It must be!" the junior sister told Meng Xiaoru with great pride and certainty.

Ye Liang smiled and said, "These talismans were all obtained by fishing. I know it's hard for you to understand, but just know that I'm not lying to you."

"I understand." Meng Xiaoru was only half-understanding; she couldn't quite grasp it, so she could only interpret it as Ye Liang had said—that they were caught while fishing. As for how fishing could lead to catching these scrolls and talismans, she really couldn't figure it out.

That evening, when she returned to her room downstairs to rest, Meng Xiaoru couldn't help but think about the matter, which made her go to bed later than usual.

The next morning, we got up early together and continued our journey.

We arrived at Nanfeng Ferry around mid-morning.

The junior sister had already contacted the girl in the magical scroll she had seen the night before, so when they arrived at the ferry, there was already a very large boat waiting for them.

When they arrived, they could immediately board the boat and cross the lake, which was extremely convenient.

After boarding the boat, seeing how much respect everyone on board showed to Ye Liang, calling him their benefactor, Meng Xiaoru realized that the person who had eliminated the Xuanbing Crab King, which had blocked the waterway in the lake for a year, was none other than Ye Liang.

The Meng family mainly deals in weapon forging. Whether it's raw material iron ore or finished products, they rely on merchants to transport raw materials in and distribute finished products out.

The trade routes here are blocked, which will also affect the Meng family's business.

Naturally, Meng Xiaoru heard about this.

Now that she learned that the person who eliminated the scourge of the crab king in the lake was none other than Ye Liangshi, she was overjoyed and felt a sense of pride in having met a great hero.

Seeing so many people showing such respect and enthusiasm for Ye Liang, Sun Qingyu's jealousy and resentment deepened.

In the past, no matter who he was with, he was always the one who stood out in public.

Wherever he goes, as long as he mentions his title as the young master of the Eternal Clan, he is always the most dazzling guest of honor.

But now, while Ye Liang is traveling with him, Ye Liang is the one who is prominent and glamorous in front of others, while he, the proud young master, has become an unknown nobody. The sense of loss he feels is unforgettable.
