After all, he is young and has little experience.
She originally suspected that the other party was being reckless and had other plans, but when she saw those snake eyes, she immediately understood the whole story.
She came out of the Ancestral Demon Temple and took away the star map, with some of the scent of the Abyss Snake Clan still on her body.
Ordinary cultivators cannot detect this smell, but it may trigger the feelings of fellow cultivators.
Yuan Jing obviously sensed something, which was why her attitude towards her was so different.
She didn't need to pay attention to such a temptation. After rejecting Yuan Jing, if she concealed her presence and stayed far behind this spirit boat, she could still reach Xitian City.
However, seeing those snake-like pupils, she became curious. Since it was still early for Xitian City's invitation, she simply went along with it and stayed.
He rubbed the blood ring out of habit and narrowed his eyes slightly.
With her keen eyesight, she could tell that Yuan Jing's cultivation aura was pure and that she was definitely a human cultivator, not a half-demon.
Those snake pupils were strange, and could be affected by the aura of the Abyss Snake Clan. Could it be that...
Many thoughts flashed through Xiang Sheng's mind, but she quickly suppressed them all. She then took out a blank jade slip and began to carve.
For the entire afternoon, everyone on Lingzhou was doing their job. Yuan Jing seemed to have forgotten about Xiang Sheng and did not go over to disturb him.
Ling Shan was in charge of the spirit boat formation, alert to the surroundings ahead, and looked back at Xiang Sheng's room from time to time, his guard had already been half lowered.
The spiritual boat has always had a formation to block detection. If this female cultivator is a bandit spy, she must tamper with the formation if she wants to spread the news.
But seeing that the other party didn't even leave the house, it was obvious that he had no idea about the battle.
As for the spy thing, there is naturally no way to explain it.
Thinking of this, Ling Shan felt relieved but also a little regretful.
Fortunately, this was the first transaction led by the eldest lady and nothing went wrong.
It’s a pity that the eldest lady was not able to learn a lesson.
The young lady is so kind-hearted, which is a good thing in an ordinary family, but it would be a disaster in the world of cultivation.
I was lucky this time, but what about next time?
If you are unlucky enough to encounter an evil cultivator with high cultivation level, your life may be in danger.
Thinking of this, Ling Shan sighed deeply.
In the blink of an eye, night fell and the spirit stone lamps in the boat lit up one after another.
After holding it in for the entire afternoon, Yuan Jing finally lost her patience and knocked on Xiang Sheng's door.
As soon as Xiang Sheng opened the door, he saw Yuan Jing smiling and saying:
"Fellow Daoist Li, I've acquired quite a few rare and exotic fruits during my business trip, and I'm just wondering who to share them with. Would you be interested in sharing some with me?"
"Miss Yuan, you're welcome."
Xiang Sheng smiled neither servilely nor arrogantly: "I am just a casual cultivator. It is my honor to be able to taste the spiritual fruit with Miss Yuan."
"Fellow Daoist Li is truly modest."
Yuan Jing covered her mouth and chuckled. Just as she was about to say a few more polite words, her eyes inadvertently glanced at the desk in the room and were immediately attracted by the ancient jade slips on the table.
"Fellow Daoist Li, may I ask what this is..."
She couldn't help but speak out, feigning curiosity.
Xiang Sheng smiled gently, picked up the jade slip on the table and handed it to Yuan Jing, "It's just a little thing I carved casually. If you like it, Miss Yuan, you can take it."
Seeing that she didn't care at all, Yuan Jing relaxed a little, lowered her head and scanned with her spiritual sense, and her heart skipped a beat.
The ancient characters on the jade slip were varied and she couldn't recognize any of them.
But there is a kind of text in it that is three points similar to the heavenly book at home!
Grandpa said that their Yuan family was once an extremely glorious family, but it declined because the writing system was cut off.
If Fellow Daoist Li recognizes...
Thinking of this, she took a deep breath, looked up at Xiang Sheng, her eyes shining.
"Daoist friend Li, you keep calling me Miss Yuan, which is too strange. When I first met you, I felt we were very compatible. If Daoist friend Li doesn't mind, why don't we call each other sisters?
I am sixty-seven years old this year. Is Fellow Daoist Li my elder sister or younger sister?"
Xiang Sheng was speechless when he saw Yuan Jing's enthusiastic smile that she couldn't hide.
The little girl's smile wiped out all the cleverness she had shown in her previous attempt to test him, and she looked a bit silly.
"I'm older than you."
"Then I will call you Sister Li!"
Yuan Jing affectionately held Xiang Sheng's arm with one hand, "Sister Li, I'll take you to try the Frost Spirit Fruit. It's so delicious when it's cold!"
Ling Shan controlled the formation and habitually looked back at Xiang Sheng's room. He happened to see Yuan Jing walking out with Xiang Sheng, talking and laughing all the way to the living room. His eyes almost popped out.
He couldn't help rubbing his eyes, but before he could take another look, he heard Yuan Jing's voice in his ear.
"Uncle Ling, I remember you have a lot of other spiritual fruits stored there. Please send one of each."
Ling Shan couldn't help but twitch the corner of his eyes.
What on earth was wrong with the young lady? How could a mere casual cultivator really become a distinguished guest of the Yuan family?
