What are you doing here so late?
A clear, youthful voice interrupted Lu Xiaoyao's idea of pushing her limits.
Everyone turned around and looked at the person standing at the door, their expressions varying.
Mei Jiu was completely bewildered, having never met anyone like her.
A fleeting look of surprise crossed her bright eyes.
However, she concealed it very well; the only one who lost her composure was Lu Xiaoyao.
"B-Big Boss? You're here too?"
Mingmei had shrunk to the size of a little bean sprout, which Lu Xiaoyao didn't immediately recognize, but she could easily recognize Mu Chen, who looked like a teenager.
However, the other party was not the Mu Chen they knew.
"Big boss?"
The boy raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this, while Mingmei inwardly cried out in alarm.
Seeing the genuine familiarity in the other person's eyes, the young man asked, "May I ask which peak this senior sister comes from?"
Lu Xiaoyao: ? ? ?
That tone, that attitude, could it be...?
Has she mistaken someone for someone else?
Before Lu Xiaoyao could say anything, Mei Jiu had already unconsciously pulled Mingmei behind her, her little face full of vigilance, and asked, "Then who are you? I don't think you look like someone from Jingyun Mountain."
The school uniform of the disciples of Jingyun Mountain is a specially made white snow-white silk.
The snow-white satin was embroidered with protective runes in gold or silver thread, while the young man in front of them wore a lake-green robe, which was completely different from their Jingyun Mountain.
Since Mingmei didn't leave the peak in the morning, Mei Jiu stayed with her and didn't know who had come or who had stayed.
Upon hearing Mei Jiu's question, Xie Chen's gaze naturally fell upon the two similar faces of the little girls beside him. He smiled gently, as if a spring breeze had just arrived, and raised his hand in a gesture of respect, saying, "My name is Xie Chen, and my master is Xie Zhen, the head of the Bu Tian Sect."
"Oh, you're the big one Mommy was talking about... um!"
Before Mei Jiu could finish saying "big liar," Mingmei quickly covered her mouth.
She was born under the curse of Sect Leader Xie Zhen, who predicted she would be a lone star with few family ties. Over the years, her mother has often criticized Sect Leader Xie, calling him a big liar and saying that everything he said was false.
"So you are the disciple of Sect Leader Xie that Mother mentioned. I've heard so much about you."
Even though her baby fat hadn't completely disappeared, the polite words spoken by the adults were strangely endearing.
Lu Xiaoyao was immediately amused by the way they greeted each other, and then suddenly a brilliant idea struck her.
The boy in front of me, who looked to be around ten years old, resembled a big shot. The two girls opposite him, especially the one with the cold face and speaking in a serious tone, didn't seem much like Mingmei!
Holy crap!
Lu Xiaoyao was suddenly taken aback by the game planner's "outrageous" move.
What an amazing CP fan leader!
Having just been rebuffed by the "family reunion" expert, and seeing Mingmei in front of her along with another adorable little girl, she subconsciously assumed that Mingmei was also an NPC.
"What are you yelling about? You're holding a plate." Mei Jiu, who hadn't noticed Lu Xiaoyao's earlier swearing, looked at Lu Xiaoyao, tilted her head, and said, "You're such a silly new disciple~"
Lu Xiaoyao: ? ? ?
How can we tolerate this?!
“Little brat, I…” Lu Xiaoyao took a deep breath, intending to give Mei Jiu a verbal lecture, but the boy next to her suddenly looked at her with a pair of dark and deep eyes and said, “This junior sister, since you’ve just entered the sect, it’s best not to say certain things.”
After the other person finished speaking, Lu Xiaoyao couldn't help but tremble.
He was certain once again that the other person's gaze just now was far too terrifying. Although Mu Chen's gaze was usually cold, he almost never had such a sudden murderous aura, looking at him as if he were a dead man.
What's the deal with this NPC in front of us?
This was not only a question that puzzled Lu Xiaoyao, but also that Mingmei was very puzzled.
Mu Chen's surname isn't Mu; it turns out his surname is Xie?
Mingmei subconsciously turned her head to look at the floor tiles, carefully recalling her hazy memories from her youth. However, the more she thought about it, the more horrified she became—
Apart from her relatives, her clear memories of her childhood seem to be getting increasingly blurry.
Is the boy in front of me really the same Mu Chen from before?
Mingmei turned her head again, and just then her eyes met those of someone who had been filled with murderous intent but was now filled with gentleness, looking at her directly.
"My master was drinking with Sect Leader Qi tonight and sent me to check if there's any food left in the Spirit Food Hall." Having probably remembered his role, Xie Chen explained his purpose to the three of them.
"Ah, there's no food left here."
Lu Xiaoyao knew about this. She washed the dishes and pots in the kitchen, and the last plate of pastries was also in the stomachs of the three of them. The spiritual food tube really had nothing left now.
"That's really unfortunate." Xie Chen sighed softly, and then Youxiang and the other person greeted him and said, "It's getting late, would you two senior uncles like your junior nephew to escort you back?"
"Eh? Martial Uncle?"
Lu Xiaoyao was stunned. She looked at the two little girls who were only a few years old. How did they suddenly become senior?
"You really don't know?" Where else in the entire Jingyun Mountain could you find such different twins?
One person is surrounded by spiritual energy, while the other has no spiritual energy fluctuations at all. Who else could it be but Mingxiao Zhenren's twins?
"Their father is Elder Mingxiao Zhenren of Jingyun Mountain. Even Sect Leader Qi has to address Elder Mingxiao Zhenren as 'Shishu' (Master Uncle). Naturally, the two of them are of the same generation as the Sect Leader. For now, you can temporarily address them as 'Shishu'."
Xie Chen didn't make a definitive statement, meaning that Wan Yilu and Xiao Yao might also be accepted as disciples by members of the sect in the future. However, if the other party's seniority was low, then the form of address...
Xie Chen's words were quite profound, but at that moment, Lu Xiaoyao's heart was already racing with a thousand mythical beasts!
She had listened to her senior's science popularization while she was working today.
The popular science content is about the background of the big shot who sits in charge of the Spirit Food Hall, and the fact that he has two daughters.
so……
Her daughter, who was desperately trying to curry favor with someone today, not only got petted by her, but almost tried to lecture her too? www.cascoo.net
Mingmei watched as Lu Xiaoyao suddenly slumped down, her back seemingly turning gray.
Good heavens, this is terrible!
Is she probably missing all her leg hair this time?
"No need for you to take us, my sister and I will go back by ourselves." Mei Jiu, acting like a little adult, wrinkled her nose, seemingly unimpressed by the guy's sudden show of goodwill.
After refusing, Mingmei was led away by Mei Jiu like a chick protecting its chick. After leaving the spirit food tube, Mingmei couldn't help but look back at the boy who had been standing at the door since earlier without going in.
Before him was light, and behind him was endless darkness.
He is not Mu Chen.
Mingmei realized that the boy was not actually played by Mu Chen, and she was worried about where Mu Chen had been placed in the game world.
