After saying that, Chu Qinghe raised his hand and patted Xiao Zhao's head, saying, "Even if something is wrong, it doesn't mean that you have to use getting injured as a solution. There's no need to keep it a secret when you go home."
After saying this, Chu Qinghe picked up his pen and continued to rethink the content of the story.
As for the source of Xiao Zhao's injuries, Chu Qinghe did not ask any further questions.
Looking at Chu Qinghe, who was focused on thinking about the storybook, Xiao Zhao hesitated for a moment before suddenly saying, "Young Master, can I disperse my inner energy and start cultivating again?"
"Huh? You're going to cripple your martial arts?"
Upon hearing what Xiao Zhao said, Qu Feiyan in the courtyard quickly opened her eyes and couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment.
Even Chu Qinghe, who was holding a pen at the moment, showed a hint of surprise on his face.
A few breaths later, Qu Feiyan darted to Xiao Zhao's side, placing one hand on Xiao Zhao's forehead and the other on her own.
After sensing it for a moment, Qu Feiyan said strangely, "There's nothing wrong with it! Why are you talking nonsense in broad daylight?"
After muttering to herself, Qu Feiyan looked at Xiao Zhao with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why would you want to cripple your martial arts and start practicing again?"
After several days of diligent cultivation, Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao both broke through to the second-rate perfection realm yesterday.
All that's needed is for Chu Qinghe's Blood Bodhi wine to be ready in a couple of days. With the medicinal effects of the Blood Bodhi, he can advance to the early stage of the first-rate level in one fell swoop.
For two girls to reach the early stage of first-class level at such a young age is quite remarkable, even if they can't compare to geniuses like Yaoyue or Dongfang Bubai in the martial arts world.
At this point, Xiao Zhao wanted to dissipate her cultivation and start over, but something just didn't seem right.
After glancing timidly at Chu Qinghe, Xiao Zhao whispered, "Because now that our cultivation level is high, we need to bring it back to the early stage of the second-rate level."
However, Qu Feiyan looked even more puzzled by what Xiao Zhao was saying.
I completely failed to understand the logic in Xiao Zhao's words.
This was the first time in all these years that Qu Feiyan had heard someone complain about her high cultivation level; she truly felt like she had never seen anything like it before.
But after Xiao Zhao said those words, she fell silent again, looking timidly at Chu Qinghe with eyes full of pain and entanglement.
Seeing Xiao Zhao's conflicted and helpless expression, Chu Qinghe shook his head inwardly.
"Knock knock knock"
However, before Chu Qinghe could speak, a knocking sound suddenly came from the front yard.
Upon hearing the sound, Chu Qinghe frowned slightly.
However, before Qu Feiyan or Xiao Zhao could open the door, an old woman suddenly entered the inner courtyard from the corner of the front yard after the knocking.
Who else could it be but the old woman Xiao Zhao met before?
Upon seeing the old woman, Xiao Zhao's expression changed drastically. Overwhelmed with shock, she instinctively stood up.
"You were following me?"
Seeing Xiao Zhao's reaction, not to mention Chu Qinghe, even Qu Feiyan, who was standing to the side, realized that something was wrong. When she looked at the old lady in the inner courtyard, her eyes became more unfriendly.
When he turned his head to look at the old woman at the entrance of the inner courtyard, a hint of contemplation appeared in his eyes.
At the same time, the old woman who had walked into the inner courtyard also turned her gaze to Chu Qinghe and the other two under the camellia tree.
When her gaze fell upon Chu Qinghe, a hint of surprise flashed in the old woman's eyes.
But a moment later, as the surprise dissipated, a cold glint appeared in the old woman's eyes.
After the old woman put her cane on the ground, she said, "I saw that the door was open outside, so I came in to ask for a drink of water. I apologize for disturbing you, young master."
Hearing what the old woman said, Chu Qinghe nodded gently and said, "It's just a cup of water, that should be fine."
After speaking, Chu Qinghe gestured to Qu Feiyan beside him.
Seeing Qu Feiyan holding an empty cup and starting to pour tea, the old woman at the entrance of the inner courtyard also stepped towards the tree.
After sitting down at the stone table, the old woman leaned her cane against it. Her gaze swept over Qu Feiyan, who looked puzzled, and Xiao Zhao, who looked nervous, before finally focusing on Chu Qinghe again.
"Young master is so lucky to have two beautiful young girls by his side."
Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe replied lazily, "It's alright!"
After taking a sip of tea, the old woman continued, "However, some people are not blessed with good fortune. If they suddenly have too much good fortune, they may not be able to bear it. Young master, you may need to be careful."
Hearing the old woman's words, Chu Qinghe raised an eyebrow and thought to himself, "Oh ho!"
However, the old woman didn't care at all about Chu Qinghe's reaction. Instead, she looked at Xiao Zhao with a faint sneer on her lips.
However, when the old woman's gaze fell on Xiao Zhao, she found that Xiao Zhao was looking at Chu Qinghe with a nervous expression and a hint of unease on her face.
Seeing this, the old woman's wrinkles deepened even more, almost enough to trap a mosquito.
When she turned her gaze back to Chu Qinghe, her eyes held an added chill.
Over here, as if knowing what might happen next, Xiao Zhao disregarded everything else and said directly, "You've finished your tea, you should leave now!"
Upon hearing Xiao Zhao's voice, the old woman narrowed her eyes and said coldly, "Heh, you're actually driving me away for the sake of an outsider? I originally just came to check on you and give you a warning, but now it seems these two can't be allowed to live."
His cold tone, coupled with his wrinkled face and gloomy eyes, made him look rather frightening.
The moment the last word was uttered, the old woman channeled her inner energy and drew the cane that had been resting on the table into her hand.
However, just as the cane was drawn into her hand, before the old woman could make any further move, her body suddenly stiffened, and she swayed and fell to the ground.
Along with the cane in his hand, it also fell to the ground and rolled to Qu Feiyan's feet.
Looking at the old woman's cane on the ground, Qu Feiyan curled her lip and kicked it into the alley next to the courtyard.
The movements are graceful and expressive.
