A moment later, the Shenshui Palace disciple who had been at the entrance earlier strode into the back courtyard.
Until they reached a woman in the pavilion in the back courtyard.
If Yaoyue were here now, she would surely recognize the woman sitting in a pavilion in the back courtyard, resting her chin on her hand, as Shuimu Yinji, who was supposed to leave with the disciples of the Divine Water Palace.
After quickly walking to Shuimu Yinji's side, the Shenshui Palace disciple at the door bowed and said, "Palace Master, it has been confirmed that the Yihua Palace disciples have searched the house where we stayed before."
Shuimu Yinji said without any surprise, "I didn't expect the Palace Master of Yihua Palace to be so careful in her actions."
The Shenshui Palace disciple beside him chimed in, "It's all thanks to the Palace Master's foresight in buying this house beforehand. Otherwise, if we had been hiding in the previous house, we might have been discovered by those Yihua Palace disciples. However..."
Hearing the last two words uttered by the disciple of the Divine Water Palace beside her, Water Mother Yin Ji glanced at the disciple and said, "I just don't understand why I have to go to such lengths?"
The disciple of Shenshui Palace quickly bowed his head and said, "This disciple dares not."
Jellyfish Yin Ji didn't care at all, and said with a smile, "It's not something that can't be said. It's just that someone doesn't want me to stay in Yushui City, so I'll let her see the situation she wants to see."
Having experienced this today, Jellyfish Yin Ji is basically certain that with Yao Yue around, it will be extremely difficult for her to have much contact with Chu Qinghe.
However, if she were to have a direct conflict with Yaoyue, Shuimu Yinji was worried that it would displease Chu Qinghe.
Since we can't use a hard approach, we have to use a soft one.
Shuimu Yinji didn't believe that Yaoyue, as the Grand Palace Master of Yihua Palace, could stay in a small place like Yushui City forever.
As long as she can wait for Yaoyue to leave, then Shuimu Yinji can be considered to have finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel.
As for how long it would take, Jellyfish Yin Ji didn't care much.
After all, good things are good enough to make people wait.
The length of time is simply a matter of whether it's worthwhile or not.
However, Jellyfish Yin Ji didn't say much about the specifics, but instead changed the subject, asking, "Have you investigated the Green Snake Gang and the Iron Sword Sect thoroughly?"
The Shenshui Palace disciple nodded and said, "I went to check last night. Both the Green Snake Gang and the Iron Sword Sect have first-class martial artists. Moreover, we intercepted a carrier pigeon that flew out from the Green Snake Gang. It was carrying a message from the Sun Moon Divine Sect, which was exactly what we were doing in Yushui City yesterday."
After thinking for a moment, Shui Mu Yin Ji said, "The Sun Moon Divine Cult, it seems that the other woman in the fiery red robe that Sun Pingying and the others found in Young Master Chu's courtyard was Dongfang Bubai of the Sun Moon Divine Cult."
"Interesting. It turns out that Young Master Chu's courtyard not only has Yaoyue, but also Dongfang Bubai of the Sun Moon Cult."
After muttering something softly, Jellyfish Yin Ji glanced at the attire of the Divine Water Palace disciple beside her and then said, "You should change your clothes here recently. I allow you not to wear veils. When you go out, avoid the disciples of the Flower Shifting Palace."
Several disciples of the Divine Water Palace in the courtyard bowed in unison and said, "Disciples obey!"
A moment later, Shuimu Yinji looked in the direction of Chu Qinghe's courtyard and muttered, "Yaoyue from Yihua Palace and Dongfang Bubai from the Sun Moon Divine Sect, there are already two, so one more of me shouldn't make much difference!"
As she pondered this further, Jellyfish Yin Ji's smile grew even sweeter.
20. It is auspicious to receive wealth, but inauspicious to break ground.
With the cold winter gone, the temperature has warmed up a bit again.
In the early morning, small birds could be heard fluttering and chirping on the roof of Chu Qinghe's courtyard.
Sometimes, butterflies would come attracted by the fragrance and flutter among the plants in Chu Qinghe's courtyard, or hover around Yaoyue, Qu Feiyan, and Xiao Zhao, who were meditating with their eyes closed.
Chu Qinghe, basking in the sunshine and feeling the unique drowsiness of spring, would occasionally glance up to admire the three women surrounded by butterflies in the courtyard.
However, at that moment, as Yaoyue closed her eyes while holding the wooden carving, a special aura began to slowly emanate from her body.
Even though she had her eyes closed and didn't do anything, the arrogant aura emanating from Yaoyue was particularly strong.
In addition, if someone were to focus their gaze on Yaoyue at this moment, they would surely be able to sense a sense of nobility emanating from her.
Under this aura, the butterflies that were originally circling around Yaoyue seemed to be startled and quickly flew away.
Even the sparrows that had been perched on the roof fluttered away from the yard.
Both Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao, who were also cultivating nearby, sensed the fluctuations in Yaoyue's aura and quickly opened their eyes to look at her.
A few breaths later, as the two women moved to Chu Qinghe's side, Qu Feiyan whispered, "Young Master, what's Sister Yue doing here?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe said calmly, "The seed of sword intent within her is almost fully formed."
Hearing what Chu Qinghe said, Xiao Zhao asked, "So, Sister Yue will soon be able to master a sword intent?"
Chu Qinghe responded with a soft "hmm".
A moment later, as the aura spreading from Yaoyue's body became even stronger, a green sprout seemed to quietly emerge from within this aura.
This also added a touch of sharpness to this aura.
"It's done!"
Sensing the subtle sharpness emanating from Yaoyue, Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao knew that Yaoyue had successfully grasped the essence of swordsmanship.
