Chapter 65: Taking the Hook



Xiang Wanwan stood in front of the flower garden outside the door, staring at the two people in the house with her eyes, wishing she could bite her teeth to pieces.

Dong Zhenchuan is the eldest disciple of the sect. In her eyes, he is no different from an immortal or Buddha. It is unbelievable that such an immortal man would lower himself to chat with Xiang Sheng and even have a very pleasant conversation with him!

This must be for Xiang Hongyu's sake.

Such an honor originally belonged to her!

Seeing Dong Jinghuan coming out, she quickly suppressed the hatred on her face, took a deep breath, and quickly walked towards him.

Dong Jinghuan seemed not to see her and passed by her. His steps seemed slow and fast at the same time, and in the blink of an eye, the distance between them was several feet.

Xiang Wanwan saw this and quickly said, "Dong Zhen Chuan!"

Dong Jinghuan paused slightly, stopped and looked back at her.

Xiang Wanwan took two steps at a time and came up to Dong Jinghuan. She brushed the hair away from her ear, lowered her eyes, and said softly, "I am Xiang Wanwan, meeting Dong Zhenchuan. My father always said that you are not only a profound cultivator, but also a celestial being. Seeing you today, I can see that your reputation is truly well-deserved."

"The daughter of the Xiang family master?"

Dong Jinghuan glanced at Xiang Wanwan and said indifferently, "Why are you stopping me here?"

"Dong Zhen Chuan."

Xiang Wanwan blushed slightly and gritted her teeth as she said, "I see that Dong Zhenchuan is all alone and needs someone to serve him. I am willing to..."

"No need."

Dong Jinghuan interrupted without mercy, his eyes sweeping over her sleeves, his voice slightly cold: "Don't bother me with that worldly charm trick in your hand. I hate concubines who take shortcuts by using their beauty the most in my life."

Xiang Wanwan's face turned pale, and she was furious. "If Dong Zhen Chuan disliked concubines, why did he treat Xiang Sheng differently? Isn't she Xiang Hongyu's concubine? If a slut can catch Dong Zhen Chuan's eye, why can't I?"

"What does the word 'pet concubine' have to do with Junior Sister Xiang?"

Dong Jinghuan was slightly furious, and he shouted coldly, "You are content with being lowly, so you see everyone else as lowly? You are so self-righteous and foolish, and you don't even realize it. Don't ever appear before me again. You're truly disgusting!"

After saying that, Dong Jinghuan flicked his sleeves, and his figure turned into a phantom, disappearing in front of Xiang Wanwan in the blink of an eye.

Xiang Wanwan froze in place, her face turning pale and blue. After a long time, her stiff body finally relaxed. She turned around with hatred to look at Xiang Sheng in the room, then turned and ran away.

When she arrived at her own courtyard, she finally couldn't hold back her grievances anymore and hid in a pavilion and burst into tears.

From childhood to adulthood, when had anyone ever said that to her?

The high and mighty true disciple of the sect actually belittled her and praised that lowly maid Xiang Sheng highly. How could this be possible?

"Is Tianqing Pavilion really so magical?"

Suddenly, she heard the conversation of the servants outside. Xiang Wanwan stopped crying immediately and hid herself in a hurry. If someone saw her like this, how could she live at home?

"certainly!"

Another person lowered his voice and whispered, "This Tianqing Pavilion is located in the market of independent cultivators, and it provides various needs for cultivators. Whether it's delivering news or killing people, as long as there are enough spirit stones, even the moon in the sky can be picked for you!"

"Spiritual stones... I have saved up a few of them. I want to buy some spiritual medicine for my mother. Where can I buy them?"

"That's right. Your mother is just a mortal. She can definitely get the medicine she needs from there."

"How do we get there?"

"I know, you are like this, like this..."

“…”

Xiang Wanwan was eavesdropping nearby, her eyes growing brighter and brighter. She waited for a while until the noise outside died away before coming out.

Seeing that there was no one around, she felt relieved and quickly ran back to her yard.

Fourteen, who was hiding in the flower garden, poked his head out, chuckled, and tossed a bag of spirit stones to the servant next to him, saying, "Do you know what to do?"

The servant was overjoyed when he received the heavy spirit stone, nodding repeatedly, "I know, I know. If I tell you, I'll be dead. I will never tell you."

A moment later, Fourteen returned to Langyuan in high spirits. Seeing Xiang Sheng reading a storybook in the main hall, he immediately smiled and said, "Miss, everything is done, then..."

Xiang Sheng suddenly raised his eyes and pointed his finger at his lips. Fourteen immediately stopped talking and scratched his head.

Dong Jinghuan, who was observing secretly, had a hint of helplessness in his eyes. This Xiang Sheng was really secretive in his actions. If he had known earlier, he should have followed Xiang Wanwan. Maybe he could have found out something.

However, Xiang Sheng was quite well-hidden and ranked second in Tianyan, so it was understandable for him to keep an eye on her personally. However, if he kept an eye on Xiang Wanwan, it would be too beneath his dignity.

If he were accidentally seen by a Jindan cultivator passing by, wouldn't he become a laughing stock in the world of cultivation?

He would never do that kind of thing.

As he was changing his mind, Xiang Sheng in the room finally spoke.

"As it happens, your business has also been accomplished."

She took out an object from her ring and threw it to Fourteen. "Hold it in your mouth for a while, and the poison from the Soul Sound Grass will dissolve on its own. You won't have to worry anymore."

After saying this, Xiang Sheng turned to look at the qin machine and said in a deep voice, "Although you said you've never taken the Xiang family elixir, there were no unusual symptoms before the Soul Sound Grass took effect. Just in case, you should try it too."

Qin Ji nodded quickly and stepped forward to grab the soul essence from Shisi's hand, "I'll go first."

"You first, you first."

Fourteen was speechless. "Sister, are you disgusted by my dirtiness? Young Miss clearly said that spiritual objects like this cannot be contaminated by foreign matter. Even if they are stained with saliva, they can be completely cleaned by shaking them off."

"What do you care about me?"

Qin Ji hummed softly, held the soul in his mouth and went to the side to meditate.

When Dong Jinghuan saw this scene, he suddenly understood.

It turned out that she sought the soul essence in order to cure the poison of the soul sound grass in the little guard beside her.

He fought with me several times, just for a mere servant?

A strange look flashed in Dong Jinghuan's eyes. At this moment, he couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.
