Chu Qian's words were like a heavy bomb, instantly shattering the originally calm atmosphere. Yourong Xuanya, who was always calm and composed, suddenly changed his face after hearing the news, and an indescribable anger and shock surged in his heart.
"How is it possible? My sister would actually do such a thing..."
Yourong Xuanya stared at Chu Qian with eyes wide open in disbelief. She couldn't imagine that her sister, who had always been gentle, kind, dignified and generous, would actually make such an intimate move towards a strange man. Even if he might be the reincarnation of Xue Lian, shouldn't Xue Lian be her apprentice? Could it be that Yourong Rouxue fell in love with her apprentice?
"No way? Could it be that my sister is really moved?"
This question kept echoing in Yourong Xuanya's mind, making her upset. She had never thought that her sister would have feelings for a man, and in such a short time. She couldn't help but begin to doubt her sister's judgment and rationality.
The others looked at each other, not knowing how to respond to this sudden news. They couldn't understand why Yourong Xuanya was so excited, and they all speculated whether there was an unknown story hidden in it.
After a while, Yourong Xuanya cleared her throat and tried to calm down. She took a deep breath and said slowly, "Don't worry, my sister won't do anything to hurt Xiao Ning. I will persuade her. Please relax and wait for the news!"
After saying that, Yourong Xuanya turned around and left alone, leaving a group of people looking at each other in bewilderment. No one knew what to say, and the whole scene fell into silence.
Finally, Li Changsheng broke the deadlock. He said firmly: "Since the Great Elder has made a promise, you can stay here without any worries! We should believe that Elder Yourong can handle this matter well."
Xiao Ding nodded helplessly, agreeing. "At the moment, we can only rely on Elder Yourong... I hope she can resolve this matter as soon as possible and give everyone an explanation."
As Yourong Xuanya left, the atmosphere in the hall became heavy. Everyone was thinking about what might happen next, and at the same time, they were looking forward to Yourong Xuanya being able to find a solution to the problem.
At noon, the sun shone through the window into the room, and Xiao Ning couldn't help yawning. He had just finished massaging You Rong Rouxue's shoulders and was exhausted. However, this was not over yet, You Rong Rouxue asked Xiao Ning to massage her feet, which really exhausted him.
"Ouch, my waist..." Xiao Ning couldn't help but complain, his waist and back were sore. At this moment, a gurgling sound suddenly came from his stomach, breaking the silence.
"I'm hungry..." Xiao Ning touched his stomach embarrassedly, thinking that he was really embarrassed.
You Rong Rouxue also heard this voice, and she couldn't help laughing: "How can you be hungry? This shouldn't be the case! You almost killed the Demon Lord, do you still need to eat?"
Xiao Ning quickly explained: "Man is like iron, and food is like steel. If you don't eat, you will be hungry. Even if I am a Mahayana cultivator, I still need to eat!"
Rong Rouxue heard such words for the first time and found them very novel. She smiled and said, "What a saying, 'Man is iron, and rice is steel'! Haha, that's really well said. Since you are hungry, go and cook! By the way, I haven't tasted mortal food for a long time. The fried dough sticks you made this morning tasted really good and left a lasting impression. Little guy, do you have any other specialties?"
When Xiao Ning heard this, he instantly became interested. His eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "You actually ate the meal I cooked! I, Xiao Ning, may not be good at other things, but I am a first-rate cook! Where is your kitchen? Let's make something you've never eaten before!"
Rong Rouxue walked lightly to his side, pinched Xiao Ning's cheek gently with her fingers, a gentle smile appeared on her face, and her voice was as sweet as a silver bell: "This is not easy." After that, she took Xiao Ning to a spacious and bright kitchen in an instant.
In the kitchen, the stove, pots and pans were all neatly arranged. Xiao Ning looked at everything, his heart filled with joy, he thought: "Finally I don't have to go hungry anymore." Then, he rolled up his sleeves and said confidently: "Look at me showing off my skills!"
Xiao Ning took out a bunch of rich ingredients from the storage ring, including fresh pork belly, bright green peppers, plump potatoes, carrots, etc. Rong Rouxue looked at these strange ingredients curiously, full of doubts. She had lived for nearly a thousand years, and this was the first time she had seen these things.
Xiao Ning held the kitchen knife in his hand, and his movements were neat and skillful. He quickly cut the pork belly into thin slices, cut the green pepper into thin strips, and cut the carrots into even pieces. Suddenly, he subconsciously said, "Sister Yourong! Help me wash the potatoes on the table."
Xiao Ning pointed at the potatoes beside him and looked at Yourong Rouxue expectantly. When she heard Xiao Ning calling her sister, her heart skipped a beat, and a long-lost feeling came over her. She stared at the boy in front of her, as if time had stopped at this moment.
Xiao Ning suddenly realized his own gaffe, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he quickly said, "I'm sorry! Sister Yourong. I forgot that I don't know you very well."
Rong Rouxue finally came back to her senses. She smiled faintly, and her eyes revealed a hint of tenderness and tolerance. She gently came to Xiao Ning's side, reached out and touched his head, and said softly: "It's okay, you will get familiar with it after a while!"
