Chapter 21 The Witchcraft Boy 20

Stepping on the bluestone path, and passing through a row of peach trees, there is a large, elegant courtyard ahead.

Xu Qiuqiu followed Yun Yulu inside. As they passed through the garden, a group of young girls were pruning the flowers and plants.

"Junior sisters, stop what you're doing and see who's back," Yun Yulu said to the dozen or so girls.

The girls looked up at Xu Qiuqiu, "It's Junior Sister!"

Xu Qiuqiu was then surrounded by a group of girls, each with their own unique looks. She was somewhat overwhelmed by their enthusiasm, and they touched and hugged her.

She could only look helplessly at Yun Yulu, hoping she could help her out of this predicament. Yun Yulu chuckled, "Alright, junior sisters, stop fooling around. The Holy Maiden has just returned and needs to rest. You all go ahead and get busy."

That's how she was rescued. In Xu Xiaoqiu's memory, she was the darling of the sect, and everyone liked her.

Xu Xiaoqiu is the youngest disciple among the disciples taken in by the leader of the Hehuan Sect. She has sixteen senior sisters who all like her very much, which is why she has been raised to be so innocent.

Yun Yulu led Xu Qiuqiu toward the beautifully decorated courtyard. "Little Qiu'er, as soon as I saw you today, I sent a message to my master. I'm sure my master is also eager to see you. Now, let me take you to see my master."

"I'll do whatever you say, Senior Sister," Xu Qiuqiu replied obediently.

Upon entering the room, a woman who appeared to be in her thirties, still possessing a captivating charm, stood behind the beaded curtain.

Yun Yulu bowed and said, "Greetings, Master."

"Hmm." Lan Rui didn't even look up, responding lazily, "What is it?"

"Master, the Holy Maiden has been found."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lan Rui lifted the beaded curtain and came out. She looked at Xu Qiuqiu and her expression softened.

"Xiao Qiu, did you suffer any injustices outside?" Lan Rui approached Xu Qiuqiu, took her hand, and asked with concern.

Xu Qiuqiu quickly adapted to her role and said to Lan Rui with a smile, "It's okay, I made Master worry, it's Xiao Qiu's fault."

"That's good, that's good." Hearing Xu Qiuqiu say that, Lan Rui felt relieved.

Hearing this, Yun Yulu said angrily, "Master, Xiao Qiu'er was taken away by the people of the Holy Medicine Valley. They are so wicked. If it weren't for my junior sister meeting a benefactor who helped her escape, she would probably have suffered a lot in the Holy Medicine Valley."

Upon hearing this, Lan Rui's eyes narrowed slightly. "Is that so?"

Xu Xiaoqiu is the only child of her sworn sister, and she has always loved her dearly. When she heard that Xu Xiaoqiu had been wronged, she became angry.

Xu Qiuqiu quickly said, "It was Qi Gunan's doing alone, and has nothing to do with the people from the Holy Medicine Valley."

"Xiao Qiu, you've lost weight..." Lan Rui said with heartache as she looked closely at the girl's face. At the same time, she hated the Holy Medicine Valley even more. "Xiao Qiu, don't worry, we'll go to the Holy Medicine Valley in a few days to demand the person and bring them to you to get revenge."

Xu Qiuqiu was instantly warmed. This is what it feels like to have family. I love it!

"Master, Xiao Qiu has another request. I want to learn martial arts when I return to the Hehuan Sect this time," Xu Qiuqiu said, not forgetting her mission.

Lan Rui smiled and patted Xu Qiuqiu's head. "Xiao Qiu, you've finally figured it out. It's a bit late to start learning martial arts now, but it's not too late for you. Go back and rest well today, and let your senior sister Yu Lu teach you tomorrow."

Xu Qiuqiu nodded, and Lan Rui fussed over her for a while before letting her go to rest.

Following Yun Yulu back to the elegantly decorated room, Yun Yulu turned to her and said, "Xiao Qiu'er, your room is cleaned every day, it hasn't changed at all."

The room didn't look like it had been unoccupied for a long time; the flowers in the vase were all fresh ones that had just been changed.

Xu Qiuqiu thought Xu Xiaoqiu was so lucky to have so many loving senior sisters. It's a pity that she never mentioned the Hehuan Sect once in the story. Sigh, it's so pathetic that the love-obsessed female lead is like this.

"Little Qiu'er, I'll go get you the book. Take a look at it today, and I'll personally teach you tomorrow~" Yun Yulu said with a smile, touching Xu Qiuqiu's face.

"Alright, Senior Sister, go ahead." Xu Qiuqiu watched Yun Yulu leave before returning to her room and sitting down on the soft couch.

Not long after, Yun Yulu returned with the books.

He carried a few books, walked up to Xu Qiuqiu, and handed them to her, saying, "Little Qiuqiu, take a look at these books first, and memorize the moves, actions, and mental techniques."

“Okay, senior sister.” Xu Qiuqiu obediently picked up the book and started reading.

The book contains illustrations of actions and moves. Xu Qiuqiu was very glad that it wasn't written in classical Chinese, otherwise she might not have been able to understand it.

Seeing that Xu Qiuqiu was looking at it seriously, Yun Yulu left quietly without disturbing her any longer.

"Holy Maiden, it's time for your meal," the maid said respectfully to Xu Qiuqiu as she brought the food.

Xu Qiuqiu looked closely and realized that she hadn't eaten in a long time and was indeed a little hungry. She smiled gently at the maid and said, "Okay, you can go ahead and do your work."

"Yes." The maid placed the food on the table and then left.

While eating, she tried to speak to 003 in her sea of ​​consciousness, "003, is learning martial arts difficult?"

"Host, the most important thing in martial arts is perseverance. Believe in yourself, you can do it, host!" 003 began to transmit positive energy to Xu Qiuqiu.

"Do you have any cheat codes, like a way to speed things up?" That would speed up the quest, and once you've completed it quickly, you could join the Hehuan Sect to cause trouble for Qi Gu Nan. Just thinking about it is so exciting.

"Host, you can't have this idea of ​​getting something for nothing. You have to be down-to-earth. It's wrong to get something for nothing!" 003 said righteously.

"How come you've become so knowledgeable again after only a few hours?" Xu Qiuqiu asked it, somewhat puzzled.

"Host, I just read a philosophical book that makes a lot of sense, so you shouldn't always think about getting something for nothing."

"Pfft," Xu Qiuqiu suddenly laughed, "003, you don't actually have any functions, so you're just saying this to fool me, do you?"

"The host has found out..." 003 was a little embarrassed, but it didn't forget to advertise itself, "But don't worry, host, once you use points to upgrade the system, I can open the system store, and then you can use the items in the store!"

"Okay, I know. You've been thinking about upgrading the system every day. I'll upgrade it for you once I complete a few tasks and save up enough points, okay?" Xu Qiuqiu coaxed.

Although the system was a bit of a pain, she found it quite cute, as it cared about her and made her feel less lonely in this other world.

"Waaaah, host, you're so kind!" 003 was deeply moved. What should it do if it wanted to stay with its host for the rest of its life?
