Let’s not talk about the argument between Qin Tianque and his servant for now.
But after Xiang Sheng left the meeting hall and flew to the foot of the nameless peak, he suddenly heard an explosion from the top of the mountain, and then the sky darkened.
Without even raising her head, she swayed her body and easily avoided the falling huge black shadow.
Then, a brand new roof fell to the foot of the mountain, brushing past her body and raising a cloud of dust.
Seeing the extremely familiar roof, Xiang Sheng raised his eyes slightly, and the sword under his feet flashed, turning into a straight line to climb to the top.
Just as Xiang Sheng reached the intersection at the top of the mountain, before he could even land steadily, another roof was blown away.
"Fourth Brother, what's wrong with you? My roof was just installed two days ago. It will take time for Second Brother to build his own roof."
"Yao Ziyi, stop being the first to complain! You blew up the alchemy room so early in the morning. Do you still want to let people practice?!"
"Besides, if you want to practice, just go to the Spiritual Pagoda. Why do you have to stay in the mountains?"
"Stop talking nonsense. If I don't beat you up today, I won't be called Su Qingqing!"
Immediately afterwards, there was a surge of spiritual energy. In front of the wooden house, two figures, one blue and one white, overlapped and fought, causing wood chips to fly.
At the side of the house, Shuiyueyao was watching the excitement and shouted loudly:
"Come on, Fourth Senior Sister! Third Senior Brother, why are you hiding? Fight back!"
Li Xiaoliu yawned and said lazily, "Fourth Senior Sister, please finish quickly. I promised to make Golden Phoenix Glazed Cake, and I've been waiting for a month."
"Do whatever you want!"
Su Qingqing beat Yao Ziyi violently while cursing, "Your senior brother has ruined my mood today. Let's do it tomorrow!"
"ah?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoliu's face suddenly became long: "Third Senior Brother, please let Fourth Senior Sister have some time. At least let me have a bite before you continue."
Yao Ziyi dealt with Su Qingqing single-handedly. He rolled his eyes in annoyance when he heard this. "Little ungrateful bastard, I worked so hard to refine the elixir for you and my junior sister."
"What good stuff did Third Senior Brother refine?"
Suddenly a voice interrupted and the fight in front of the house stopped immediately.
Everyone turned around in surprise and saw Xiang Sheng standing in front of the mountain pass with a smile on his face.
"Junior Sister, you're back?"
As soon as Yao Ziyi spoke, he saw a green figure whoosh past in front of him.
Su Qingqing stopped in front of Xiang Sheng, took his hands without saying a word, and looked him up and down: "How was your trip? Are you injured anywhere?"
A smile filled Xiang Sheng's eyes. "Don't worry, Senior Sister. This trip was safe and sound, and no one was hurt."
"That's good."
Su Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and took out a plate of steaming Golden Phoenix Glass Cake from her storage ring.
"You've been gone for a year. I figured it was time for you to come back. I've been preparing some pastries. Come and try some to see if your cooking skills have improved."
Li Xiaoliu was surprised and happy to see Xiang Sheng coming back, but when he saw the plate of glass cake, his eyes widened and he wailed:
"I waited a whole month but couldn't eat Liuli Cake, but it was available as soon as Junior Sister came back. Fourth Senior Sister, you are so biased!"
Su Qingqing turned around and glared at Li Xiaoliu: "Haven't you eaten enough this year? If you dare to tell me again, all the cakes for the next ten years will be cancelled."
Li Xiaoliu stopped howling immediately and came over with a smile on his face: "Junior Sister, what did you do when you went out this time? Was it fun?"
Xiang Sheng took a bite of the glass cake, his eyes curved with sweetness, "It's fun. Sixth Brother, you must practice well, and let's go down the mountain to play together soon."
"Isn't your senior brother hardworking enough for me?"
Li Xiaoliu said with a bitter face, "You are not on the mountain, and Fifth Senior Sister is too lazy to pay attention to me. I have been practicing in seclusion in the Spiritual Pagoda every day, and I have lost a lot of weight."
"Xiao Liu, please don't wrongly accuse anyone."
Shui Yueyao snorted in dissatisfaction: "I, your senior sister, am busy healing my wounds. How can I have the time to accompany you to mess around?"
Li Xiaoliu rolled his eyes secretly when he heard this.
Big liar!
This year, Fifth Senior Sister went down the mountain to beat people up quite often, and he alone encountered her more than ten times.
"Okay, all of you, stop talking."
Yao Ziyi wiped the black dust off his face and finally walked over: "Junior Sister, you just returned from the sect, you must be tired, go and rest first, it's not too late to talk tomorrow."
Xiang Sheng nodded happily, then glanced behind everyone and asked in confusion, "Why isn't Second Senior Brother here?"
Upon hearing this, Yao Ziyi looked at Su Qingqing helplessly and replied, "I went down the mountain to cut trees."
Su Qingqing crossed her arms and snorted softly, "I haven't blown off as many roofs as you have."
Yao Ziyi was too lazy to continue arguing with Su Qingqing, so he let everyone go and get on with their own business.
Xiang Sheng came to his own wooden house, unlocked the blockade, and pushed the door open to go inside.
All the formations inside are functioning normally, no different from when I left a year ago.
After closing the gate formation, she went to the soft couch and lay down.
Back here, she no longer needed to worry about the intrigues of the outside world, and she felt completely relaxed.
As I relaxed, all the fatigue accumulated from walking outside suddenly flooded back to my heart.
Xiang Sheng did not resist, letting fatigue overwhelm his mind and fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up again, it was already dusk the next day.
Xiang Sheng stood up and opened the window. The red sunset glowing across half the sky was reflected in his clear eyes. At this moment, his thoughts were extremely empty.
All kinds of thoughts floated in my mind, and the mysteries that I couldn't deduce before actually had clearer ideas at this moment.
"Practice should have a balance between tension and relaxation, that is the right path."
The clear voice in my dream in the past seemed to ring in my ears again.
Xiang Sheng curled his lips slightly, his eyes full of satisfaction.
"Junior Sister is awake?"
Yao Xuanjia carried a huge log and walked to the window with a smile.
He waved his hand, and a row of cute wooden carvings of pandas appeared under the windowsill.
"This is a new sculpture made by my senior brother. Do you like it?"
Xiang Sheng's eyes lit up, and he picked up one of them, played with it for a moment, and praised it generously.
"Brother, your craftsmanship is really getting better and better. I like it."
Yao Xuanjia smiled innocently, "As long as you like it."
He wasn't one for words, so after laughing, he carried the huge log and walked away. The rooftops had already been completely destroyed by the third and fourth brothers, so he had to replenish them quickly.
Xiang Sheng's eyes were gentle. After watching him leave, he waved his sleeve to pick up a row of wood carvings, moved them to the antique shelf, and placed them together with the batches that Yao Xuanjia had sent before.
After Yao Xuanjia left, Su Qingqing came over again with a plate of yellow new-style pastries and asked Xiang Sheng to help choose a name for it.
Xiang Sheng took a bite and found that he could taste some of the pineapple flavor from his previous life, but without the astringency, so he named it Golden Pineapple Cake.
"It's a good name, it pairs perfectly with the Golden Phoenix Glaze."
Su Qingqing got a new name for her pastry and left happily.
Xiang Sheng figured he had nothing to do today, so he lowered the window frame and was about to go back to meditate and sort out what he had learned from this trip, when Yao Ziyi suddenly came to him.
"Junior Sister, Senior Brother is back."
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiang Sheng's gaze instantly became focused, no longer distracted as before.
