What's going on in Master's mind? It's so contradictory!

But thankfully, there's a slight chill in the air, hehe.

"Qinghan, what are you thinking about?"

"Qinghan was thinking that Master's expression just now seemed very sad."

Ye Qinghan rested her chin on her hand, gazing at Su Cheng with her beautiful eyes sparkling like a galaxy, captivating all who beheld them, yet tinged with an inexplicable sadness.

"Is there?"

"Is Master unhappy?"

Su Cheng shook his head, his face full of doting affection.

How could I not be happy eating out with my precious child?

Perhaps neither of them realized that they were now inseparable from each other, especially Ye Qinghan, whose feelings for her had long since crossed the boundaries of master and disciple.

However, at this moment, Ye Qinghan seemed to understand his master's caution and complacency.

"Qinghan wants to stay by Master's side forever, is that alright?"

Ye Qinghan was only sixteen years old, had known Su Cheng for less than a month, and had only been a disciple for half a month.

But Ye Qinghan knew that she would never meet another man in her life who could love and care for her like her master did.

As for why?

Because she had been watching her master the whole time, just as the Second Elder was about to exert all his strength, her master's hand subconsciously reached for his waist.

It wasn't her who harbored murderous intent; it was clearly their master.

However, the things that were supposed to be hanging there were given to her by her master.

"Of course, you are my personal disciple. If you run away, I will bring you back."

Soon, in the time it takes to eat a meal, the pursuers arrived and had completely surrounded the restaurant.

After all, Su Cheng and Cheng Liang were nominally fellow disciples, so Cheng Liang couldn't do it himself and resorted to a little trick.

Su Cheng never imagined that Qing Han would just let the matter drop after he had beaten the eldest disciple of the Heavenly Dao Pavilion.

Cheng Liang is not that kind of person, and Shangguan Rou is someone who will seek revenge and cannot tolerate being wronged.

"Qinghan, let's go back."

Ye Qinghan blinked her big eyes, grabbed his arm and followed behind, slowly walking out of the unimpressive little restaurant.

In Tiandao Pavilion, Shangguan Rou nestled beside Cheng Liang, vividly and dramatically describing Ye Qinghan's actions, embellishing the story and calling him a "little bitch."

"Master, that little bitch is shameless! In my opinion, we should kill them both!"

"It doesn't matter. As long as Su Cheng is gone, she will be mine sooner or later."

"Sect Leader, I have something to say." Lu Cheng cupped his hands and stepped forward.

Lu Cheng was furious with Shangguan Rou, who had said nothing of substance after all that!

Cheng Liang sat on the throne-like seat of the sect leader, his eyes slightly narrowed as he toyed with the eldest disciple beside him, and simply nodded.

"If we want to kill Su Cheng, we'll probably have to send more people. Ye Chenmeng's strength is already above mine; ordinary people are no match for her."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Baobao's restless little hands froze in fright...

"Are you serious? With your Nascent Soul cultivation, you can't even defeat a Qi Refining girl?"

"Yes, I understand the sect leader's intentions now. If the sect leader wants to take her in, I think it would be best to use some means to separate her from Su Cheng."

Cheng Liang was speechless. Although Ye Chenmeng wasn't human, but a fox spirit...

But this vixen is too cruel!

You said it's fine if you fight someone at a higher level than a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and I wouldn't say anything even if you fought someone at the Golden Core stage!

Who told you, Ye Chenmeng, to be a prodigy? Everyone knows that!

But even your second elder, who is at the Nascent Soul stage, can't defeat you. Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?

If you've already reached the Nascent Soul stage during the Qi Refining stage, what would you do if I made you reach the Foundation Establishment stage? Would you come to the Heavenly Dao Pavilion and beat me up?

"Actually, I've already sent people there. If what you say is true, even these people probably wouldn't be a match for her..."

At this moment, a group of people were already lying outside the restaurant...

"Master, these are rare and precious materials that your disciple has collected."

Ye Qinghan held a small cloth bag in both hands and handed it to Su Cheng, respectfully craning his neck and waiting for his master's pat on the head and praise.

It was full of storage rings, more than a dozen in total, but none of them were of high quality and there was mostly nothing good inside.

[Silly child, what would your teacher do with this broken thing? Your teacher can't cultivate!]

Why didn't you collect their wallets? Your master lacks nothing, except perhaps a little money...

Upon hearing this, Ye Qinghan realized that his master's words made sense!

If I had money, my master wouldn't have to pick up vegetable scraps anymore! He would take me out to eat more often!

"Master, please take this first. Qinghan will check what else they have on them..."

Su Cheng didn't pay much attention. He scanned the items with the system and found nothing of value, so he simply used system points instead. At least he could exchange some cultivation materials and new dresses for his disciples.

While Ye Qinghan cleaned up the battlefield, Su Cheng browsed the system shop nearby. He had only exchanged those rare and precious materials for two thousand system points, which wasn't enough to buy much.

The items in the system are quite expensive. For example, the 999 All-Purpose Elixir that was once given to Ye Qinghan costs system points in the system shop...

However, the medicine is absolutely effective. As long as a person is alive, even if they are missing an arm or a leg, they can be restored to being lively and energetic in an instant.

However, Su Cheng saw something useful!

[A blank jade slip? If I had one, wouldn't I be able to seal away my skills and have Qinghan carry them with him?]

[A regular jade slip certainly couldn't be inscribed with the Frost-Piercing Sword Technique, but this mythical jade slip might be able to!]

"One thousand each? That's robbery!"

【Even if it's expensive, I have to buy it! I'll buy two first, and when I'm rich, I'll get two hundred for Qinghan! Forget about cultivation! I'll just flaunt them to everyone I see!】

Ye Qinghan examined the corpses one by one, cleaned up the battlefield, and gave the ones who were pretending to be dead a couple of stabs. That's how he overheard Su Cheng's little scheme.

Master can do such a thing?

Ordinary jade slips are only inscribed with lightning magic or incantations. Ye Qinghan didn't even dare to imagine inscribing his master's powerful Frost Sword Formation on a jade slip!

Is this the props race that Master was talking about?

Master is amazing! I like Master even more now!

However, if that's the case...

If Qinghan had a jade slip as powerful as his master's, would he still have to worry about money?

First, go and cleave the Heavenly Dao Pavilion in two! Then clean up the battlefield and dig up all the treasures from their ancestral graves to sell!

I just don't know if my master will agree. But even if he doesn't agree, what can he do to me?

Master has his disciple training strategy, and Qinghan also has his own master training manual!

Hehe, as long as my master doesn't expel me from the sect, I don't care about any punishment!

Just as Ye Qinghan and Su Cheng were busy making their plans, the assassins in the shadows had already made all the necessary preparations.

It's easy to defend against a spear in the open, but hard to guard against an arrow in the dark!

By the time Ye Qinghan realized it, it was too late!

That sword was aimed directly at Su Cheng; the opponent's target was Su Cheng, not Ye Qinghan.

"Master! Be careful!"

Ye Qinghan appeared in an instant, shielding Su Cheng behind him...

Su Cheng didn't react in time; his gaze was still fixed on the system panel. The next second, he saw Ye Qinghan standing in front of him...
