"Impossible. His sect is still there. If he loses his sect, is he going to take Ye Chenmeng to beg for food?"
The elder also looked puzzled; Cheng Liang's statement made sense.
"I led my men to search that dilapidated house three times. Su Cheng took everything with him, even the pots and pans. He must have moved!"
Cheng Liang angrily rebuked, "A bunch of good-for-nothings! So many people, and you can't even keep an eye on this piece of trash with no cultivation?"
"Take more people with you this time and search the surrounding area for me!"
"yes!"
The next day, Su Cheng went out to buy groceries as usual, but this time, Ye Qinghan accompanied him.
Compared to the revealing attire of Lingxian Palace, Ye Qinghan changed into a slightly more conservative dress, supposedly to match her master's low-key style.
In reality, Ye Qinghan simply didn't want to benefit outsiders; it was a special privilege granted by his master.
"Sect Leader Su, is this your daughter? She's so beautiful!" A vegetable vendor nearby couldn't help but exclaim when she saw Su Cheng.
"Auntie, do I look that old? This is my disciple!"
As Su Cheng spoke, he didn't forget to look back at Ye Qinghan, as if asking Ye Qinghan if he also thought he was old.
Ye Qinghan chuckled to herself, neither speaking nor arguing. She quite liked this kind of master; he was very interesting.
"I told you I wasn't going to come here to pick up vegetable scraps anymore, but these past two days I've been willing to spend money on meat! Old Wang at the butcher shop even said you got married!"
[That old geezer is spreading rumors! I'm never buying meat from his store again!]
"Qinghan, how about I do it myself next time? The foul language in this kind of place is not good for your cultivation!"
Ye Qinghan never imagined that his master was actually so poor, that he really did beg for food...
But when she heard the words "marry a wife," she couldn't help but blush. Master... would he be willing to marry her?
"Master, it's alright. If I were to always be under your protection, how would I grow?"
I wish you were this clever in other places! You clearly just want to see your teacher make a fool of himself!
"What's the girl's name? She's so pretty! Who would have thought that Su Cheng would be so lucky!"
The old woman rested her chin on her hand, looking at him with great satisfaction, as if she were looking at her daughter-in-law who was about to marry into the family!
“Auntie, my name is Ye Qinghan. Meeting my master is the greatest blessing of my life.”
Ye Qinghan was not at all reserved and replied casually.
"Su Cheng, what did you use to threaten her? Or did you lie to her?"
"No, can't I take on a disciple?"
"What can you teach her? If you had any skills at all, would you be here every day picking up vegetable scraps?"
Su Cheng was speechless. He really was that persona!
Ye Qinghan ruined his public image!
He was originally harmless! Although he lost his dignity, at least he saved his life, didn't he?
“Auntie, you’ve misunderstood. Qinghan wasn’t threatened or deceived. It was because Qinghan knelt on Mount Ling for a whole day that Master was willing to accept Qinghan as a disciple.”
Upon hearing this, the old lady became even angrier!
"Such a beautiful child, and you make her kneel for a whole day! Have you no shame?!"
"It's not Qinghan, so shut up..."
【My dear Qinghan! Please stop causing trouble!】
Upon hearing this, Ye Qinghan became even more excited! Hehe~
"Auntie, Master is really good to Qinghan. He even feeds Qinghan from time to time!"
The old woman reached for the stick behind her: "He's still abusing you, isn't he! He only gives you food every now and then? Come on, Qinghan, I'll take you to report this to the authorities!"
"Qinghan, I will die at your hands sooner or later."
Ye Qinghan laughed heartily: "Auntie, ordinary soldiers can't capture Master."
"We can catch him, we can catch him!" Su Cheng quickly explained from the side, "Pah! Why would you catch me!"
"Auntie, anyway, Master is actually very powerful, otherwise why would Qinghan have become his disciple?"
"How powerful is it?"
"That's amazing! Qinghan admires Master very much!" Ye Qinghan blinked her big eyes, speaking as if it were the truth!
The old woman squinted at Su Cheng; he was quite tall, but she couldn't tell what abilities he had...
"Qinghan, let me take you to a restaurant. We won't talk to her anymore, okay?"
"Really?" Ye Qinghan's eyes sparkled! He seemed very interested in going to a restaurant.
"Um."
"Auntie, I'll chat with you again next time. Master is taking me out to eat!"
The old woman waved with a smile, but her expression changed completely when her gaze swept over Su Cheng...
The two hadn't walked far when they heard someone calling Ye Qinghan.
"Miss Chenmeng?"
Ye Qinghan pretended not to hear it, treating it as a dog barking. "My master gave me the name Qinghan, and you call me Chenmeng? Are you looking for trouble?"
Su Cheng turned around and sized up the newcomer.
"Sect Leader Su, it's a pleasure to meet you."
The visitor was none other than Lu Cheng, the second elder of the Heavenly Dao Pavilion.
"Elder Lu? Do you need to see my disciple?"
"Yes, the sect leader has important matters for me to convey to Miss Chenmeng." Lu Cheng cupped his hands in greeting. If there weren't so many people here, he wouldn't bother to give this good-for-nothing any face.
Su Cheng pursed his lips: "Qinghan, she's looking for you."
“Master is not looking for me, he is looking for Miss Chen Meng. I do not know any Miss Chen.”
"The girl is joking."
Ye Qinghan also realized that this Second Elder couldn't understand human language, so he had to communicate with him in a blunt way!
"I'm not kidding you, my name is Ye Qinghan! It's a name given to me by my master! Do you understand?"
"If you're looking for Miss Chen, go look for her somewhere else. I don't know her!"
