At this moment, Xiao Zhao suddenly nudged Qu Feiyan and asked, "Didn't Young Master poison this courtyard? Why wasn't Shui Mu Yin Ji poisoned just now?"
In response to Xiao Zhao's question, Qu Feiyan explained, "Young Master, the poison was administered in the inner courtyard, not in the front yard. Otherwise, if the wind blew it out, a passing martial artist on the street would be lying right at the door. It would be so unlucky to open the door every day to find a corpse!"
After receiving Qu Feiyan's explanation, Xiao Zhao thought of the spot where Yaoyue and the jellyfish Yin Ji had been standing, and nodded with a look of realization.
"Too!"
After replying to Xiao Zhao, Qu Feiyan thought for a moment and asked in confusion, "But didn't the Hundred Flowers Ranking a year ago record that this Jellyfish Yin Ji's figure was graceful and similar to Sister Yue's? But just now, that Jellyfish Yin Ji looked almost as tall as you, Young Master, didn't she?"
In response, Yaoyue glanced at Qu Feiyan indifferently and said nonchalantly, "I don't know, and it's not important."
If that Jellyfish Yin Ji were still on the Hundred Flowers Ranking, Yao Yue might be even more interested.
But since the Water Mother Yin Ji has been removed from the Hundred Flowers Ranking by Bai Xiaosheng, the only one who can catch Yao Yue's eye is Dongfang Bubai.
As for what happened to Jellyfish Yin Ji, Yao Yue didn't care at all.
On the other side.
After Shuimu Yinji led the disciples of Shenshui Palace surnamed Sun away from the roof of Chu Qinghe's front courtyard, she did not immediately head to the north of the city.
Instead, it fell from the sky after moving to another street.
However, although the person had left, it seemed that Jellyfish Yin Ji's thoughts remained on the man carved under the tree.
"Cough cough!"
However, at that moment, a coughing sound suddenly reached the ears of the jellyfish princess.
Upon hearing the sound, Shui Mu Yin Ji shifted her gaze slightly and saw that the Sun surnamed Shenshui Palace disciple's originally white veil now had a bright red bloodstain.
Upon seeing this, the Water Mother Yin Ji's true energy flowed through her hand into the body of the Sun-surnamed Divine Water Palace disciple.
Under the nourishment of this powerful true energy, the injuries suffered by the Shenshui Palace disciple surnamed Sun improved rapidly. In just over ten breaths, the spirit in the eyes of the Shenshui Palace disciple surnamed Sun also recovered.
After the Water Mother Yin Ji released her grip, the disciple of the Divine Water Palace surnamed Sun hurriedly said, "Thank you, Palace Master."
Upon hearing this, Jellyfish Yin Ji gave a nonchalant "hmm" and then said, "You also know that Yao Yue is in Yu Shui City, didn't you?"
The disciple of Shenshui Palace surnamed Sun replied, "Reporting to the Palace Master, I did see that young master Chu in his courtyard before, but I never expected that the young lady was Yaoyue, the Grand Palace Master of Yihua Palace."
Jellyfish Yin Princess was not too surprised by this reply.
“Yaoyue has already reached the peak of the Grandmaster realm. If she is unwilling, it is normal that you cannot detect her cultivation level with your strength.”
Then, looking at the thoughtful expression in the eyes of the Water Mother Yin Ji before him, the disciple of the Divine Water Palace surnamed Sun asked in a low voice, "So, what about Young Master Chu's matter now?"
Knowing what the disciple of Shenshui Palace surnamed Sun was referring to, Shuimu Yinji spoke up: "My Shenshui Palace and Yihua Palace have always kept to themselves and have no grudges. This place is also within the sphere of influence of Yihua Palace. With Yaoyue here, it is not advisable to be too aggressive."
After pausing for a few breaths, Shui Mu Yin Ji continued, "Moreover, I just saw that young master surnamed Chu you mentioned. He doesn't seem like a bad person. He shouldn't be the kind of person who would collude with someone like Tian Boguang. As for the jade pendant, it probably has nothing to do with him."
His explanation was reasonable and well-founded, and showed no sign of bias.
The disciple of Shenshui Palace surnamed Sun: "??????"
Upon hearing what the Water Mother Yin Ji said, the disciple of the Divine Water Palace surnamed Sun couldn't help but look somewhat bewildered.
Clearly, he was a little confused by the inconsistent attitude and reaction of the jellyfish princess.
However, judging from Shui Mu Yin Ji's current state, she clearly has no intention of pursuing the matter further, which is naturally the best thing for the disciples of the Divine Water Palace surnamed Sun.
Then, Jellyfish Yin Ji said, "Let's go! It's not appropriate to rush today. Let's visit again tomorrow!"
The disciple of Shenshui Palace surnamed Sun originally thought that the matter was over after what Shuimu Yinji had said, but he never expected that Shuimu Yinji still had no intention of giving up.
She couldn't help but ask in astonishment, "Palace Master, didn't you also think that Young Master Chu had nothing to do with the jade token? Why did you come to visit again?"
Shuimu Yinji glanced at the disciple of Shenshui Palace surnamed Sun.
Noticing the gaze of the Water Mother Yin Ji, the disciple of the Divine Water Palace surnamed Sun immediately realized his offense and lowered his head in alarm.
Thinking of the unpredictable moods and bloodthirstiness of the Jellyfish Yin Princess over the past year, and the punishment she suffered for saying the wrong thing, her heart was unconsciously filled with fear.
However, to the surprise of the Sun-surnamed Shenshui Palace disciple, after Shuimu Yinji glanced at her, she did not take action directly as she had done outside the city before. Instead, she said calmly, "Since Yaoyue is here, she must have discovered your surveillance. This place is also within the territory of Yihua Palace. If I leave like this, what will outsiders think of my Shenshui Palace?"
"You've traveled such a long way, it would be impolite to meet someone while you're covered in dust. Please come after you've taken a bath!"
The disciple from Shenshui Palace, surnamed Sun, bowed his head and said, "It was my oversight."
After giving a soft "hmm", Jellyfish Yin Ji said, "Go and call the people from outside the city in, and then find a place to settle them in Yushui City for the time being."
After the disciples of the Divine Water Palace surnamed Sun left, Shui Mu Yin Ji slowly turned her head to look in the direction of Chu Qinghe's courtyard. The image of the young master under the tree with flowers and carved wood unconsciously appeared in her mind, and her eyes flickered slightly.
