Ye Qingyun looked at the two of them with some helplessness, "Isn't it because you two seemed a little hesitant when I brought this up? Actually, I can understand. Junior Brother Xiao was indeed a bit too unruly in handling some things in the past, which may be related to my blind protection. In a way, it is also my responsibility as his brother. But in the past few years, Junior Brother Xiao has been slowly changing, and you should have felt it too."
Liu Jiantang thought for a moment and said, "Indeed, regarding the matter in the Southern Frontier, I heard that my junior brother was willing to sacrifice himself to become the Blood King Gu. This alone is enough to show that he is no longer the Xiao Yuhan of the past."
Ye Qingyun nodded, "This shows that Junior Brother Xiao is responsible and has a strong sense of duty. Moreover, Junior Brother Xiao is wholeheartedly devoted to the sect and genuinely treats you two as family. So, don't you feel ashamed? You're still wary of your junior brother!"
At this moment, the usually taciturn Third Senior Sister, Shen Huairu, snorted and said, "Who is wary of him? Wasn't it you, Senior Brother, who suggested testing Junior Brother? Why did you have to go through all this trouble, saying you wanted to prove it to us!"
Ye Qingyun said helplessly, "Is...is that so? But isn't that because you two always talked about Junior Brother Xiao before...I was afraid that if we announced Junior Brother Xiao as the leader in front of all the immortals, wouldn't it be very embarrassing if you two jumped out to oppose it?"
At this point, Liu Jiantang snorted and said, "To be honest, Junior Brother Xiao's reaction just now really surprised me. I didn't expect that brat to have changed so much..."
Shen Huairu shook her head. "Senior Brother Liu, you're wrong. A person's nature doesn't change. It's not that he's changed, but that we've been misunderstanding him all along."
"In that case, shouldn't we apologize to our junior brother?" Liu Jiantang suddenly asked.
Ye Qingyun smiled slightly, "No need, Junior Brother Xiao won't care about these things. During the Blood King Gu incident, he was willing to sacrifice himself for Second Junior Brother, and he was also very worried when Third Junior Sister was in trouble, so he has never blamed you..."
Shen Huairu frowned slightly and said no more. "Alright, I have no objection to your suggestion to recommend Junior Brother Xiao as the Alliance Leader. I'm going back to cultivate!"
After saying that, without waiting for Ye Qingyun's reply, Shen Huairu turned around and left. Ye Qingyun was used to her doing things her own way.
At this moment, Liu Jiantang also bowed and said, "Junior brother has no objections, senior brother can make the arrangements as you see fit! But is it really okay not to inform junior sister about this?"
Ye Qingyun seemed to have thought of something and smiled, "Do you think Junior Sister will object after hearing this news? She has always sided with Junior Brother Xiao, and recently, I don't know what that girl has been up to. She locks herself in the lotus platform all day long, and I haven't seen her for a long time!"
Hearing this, Liu Jiantang laughed and said, "Junior Sister is indeed the most supportive of Junior Brother Xiao. Speaking of which, I haven't seen Junior Sister for a long time. But Junior Sister, once she becomes obsessed with something, she will forget to eat and sleep. I think she must have discovered something interesting recently?"
Ye Qingyun didn't take it seriously, shaking his head and sighing, "Alright, hurry up and get ready. Everyone's coming to my place for dinner tonight to welcome Junior Brother Xiao. I'll also go see what that girl Ling'er is up to. We can't all be here and she's not here, can we?"
Liu Jiantang thought for a moment and then said, "It's alright, I'll accompany my senior brother to find my junior sister first!"
...
Meanwhile, inside the alchemy room of the Lotus Platform, Nangong Ling'er stared intently at the alchemy furnace with a pale face and a solemn expression.
She had locked herself in the alchemy room for a long time, focusing solely on her research without eating or drinking.
Her eyes were sunken, she had lost weight, and even had a few strands of white hair, but she didn't care at all. She just stared intently at the alchemy furnace, her hands never daring to stop circulating their energy for even a moment.
After failing, he kept going, and he fell into a rather obsessive state.
All of this stemmed from her research on the Blood King Scripture, as well as the Azure Water Pearl that Xiao Yuhan had brought her before.
