Chapter 98 098 You Hold My Hand
Returning to the foot of Tingquan Pavilion and walking up the path, Song Chi suddenly realized that the last time she had visited Tingquan Pavilion was ten years ago when she returned to replace a screen.
I wonder what the senior brother thinks of my sudden arrival, especially since I suspect he'll probably touch her hand or something.
Song Chi sniffed, put his hands behind his back, and resolutely went up the mountain.
Soon at the gate, the gatekeeper was quite outrageous. Upon seeing her, he was so frightened that he immediately looked towards the west, where the last rays of the setting sun had completely disappeared, to make sure that the sun would rise in the east that day.
Yes, yes, although they live nearby, she hasn't really visited her senior brother's residence much. There's no need to make such a fuss.
Then the boy immediately rushed in like a whirlwind to report the news.
"Young master, young master, Senior Sister Song has arrived."
Venerable Xueqiao was originally playing the zither by the window, in the dim light of dusk.
Upon seeing that Song Chi had actually visited Tingquan Pavilion, she couldn't help but almost misplay a note on her zither.
Well, in the past ten years, I've only run into these two seven or eight times while strolling around Mingjing Lake. Two of those times were when Youqin, who was preparing for her Nascent Soul stage, called them over to walk around the lake and chat for a bit.
At other times, things were fine for Shu Bai, just like any other day. He would either cultivate, play the zither or paint, or go out to run errands.
On Song Chi's side... to Venerable Xueqiao's surprise, she had spent the past ten years diligently cultivating and studying the Wood Spirit Root Immortal Technique. He had originally thought that exchanging the Carefree Grass for such resources, even though the girl insisted on only taking half, was already a considerable fortune. Given her temperament, he figured she would likely spend most of her time relaxing. Venerable Xueqiao had even prepared to give her a good talking-to.
It turned out to be completely unnecessary; he even felt that Song Chi's cultivation was too diligent. At the Nascent Soul stage, the focus should be on comprehension; rote cultivation is not beneficial for improving one's cultivation level.
But seeing how hard Song Chi was working, playing the piano until late every night, he didn't stop him in the end.
As for Shu Bai, Venerable Xueqiao felt that criticism was necessary.
Since he had fallen for his third junior sister, and the two shared a bond of mortal and immortal destiny with Immortal Lord Qiongyu, they could be considered to have been engaged.
At this moment, it would be too reserved for him not to get close to Song Chi. But it was something he couldn't bring up himself, so he could only watch helplessly. Not to mention, even You Qin, after successfully achieving the Nascent Soul stage, had mentioned it to him a couple of times. "Senior Brother's temperament is too refined, how can he compete with those rivals for love? Oh dear, Master, it's driving me crazy."
"..." Those rivals were indeed all formidable, and over the years, the lists of gifts sent to Song Chi were like snowflakes. However, that girl basically never responded, and she even returned the overly expensive gifts.
Now, Song Chi suddenly visits Tingquan Pavilion.
Not only did the boy look at the setting sun in the west, but even Venerable Xueqiao couldn't help but glance at it. He felt that it was likely to rain red blood.
This was a private matter between the two disciples, and he shouldn't pay too much attention to it.
But Venerable Xueqiao couldn't help but glance over with his divine sense.
Shu Bai should have sealed off the East Courtyard, judging from the fan on the desk, he must have been painting before.
Only after hearing the boy's movements did they break the seal.
But Venerable Xueqiao realized that wasn't the case; Shu Bai's pure aura had already dissipated. It seemed that he had noticed his third junior sister as soon as she stepped up the mountain from Mingjing Lake, yet he was still pretending to know nothing.
"This kid!" Venerable Xueqiao couldn't help but shake his head.
As Song Chi walked into the central courtyard, Shu Bai immediately came out to greet him.
"Senior Brother, I apologize for bothering you."
"Third Junior Sister, you're too kind. Please come inside and have a seat."
The two were being so polite... which left Venerable Xueqiao speechless, and Song Chi's next words left him speechless as well.
"Senior Brother, I've recently developed a keen interest in painting. I've heard that your painting skills are extraordinary, like those of a celestial being descended to earth, and are praised by all. So, I've come today to seek your guidance. I wonder if you're busy?"
Look at this trick... it feels like he learned it from that kid Hua Shalan. He's also planning to use the "teaching and learning from each other, adding fragrance to the room to build rapport" approach. He doesn't want to learn the good stuff... oh well, at least it can bring them closer, that's good too.
After that, Venerable Xueqiao didn't look at it much. After all, it was a private matter between his two disciples, and he didn't want to disturb them.
Song Chi went into the hall and had tea first, and Mo Shubai only asked one question.
Why did you suddenly want to learn to paint?
Song Chi's reply was straightforward: he just suddenly wanted to learn. "If Senior Brother is busy here..." he'd have to swallow his pride and ask him to teach him...
Mo Shubai simply smiled faintly. "I'm not in a hurry. How about starting tomorrow, at 9 AM, Third Junior Sister will come to learn painting?"
Then there's no need to wait until tomorrow; her interest in learning to paint is basically over today.
Song Chi immediately said, "There's no time like the present. Let's start tonight, shall we?"
Mo Shubai glanced at her with a smile, then got up and ordered someone to bring tea to the study.
Then he was led to the West Garden Study. Song Chi thought to himself, "Great, now my painting by lamplight by the west window is really going to come to fruition."
Soon, they arrived at the study on the second floor. Upon entering, Song Chi was somewhat surprised.
The reason was that the room was decorated entirely in warm yellow tones. However, Mo Shubai actually preferred blue and white; most of his clothes were blue robes in various shades. But perhaps it was quite normal for him to prefer warm colors for the furnishings and decorations.
Therefore, Song Chi only glanced at it briefly before following Mo Shubai to the desk by the window.
He had been painting fans before, but it was a delicate white plum blossom. The half-open plum blossom was clean, elegant, pure, and very lovely.
Moreover, Mo Shubai, as one of the four beauties of the cultivation world, is indeed renowned for his painting skills. Although he is a music cultivator…
This small painting, with its delicate brushstrokes and elegant posture, truly possesses the style of a master.
Although Song Chi had some painting experience, if we count kindergarten drawing lessons, he later fell in love with music and naturally lost interest in everything else.
Therefore, the renowned teacher Mo Shubai will likely be deeply impressed by her painting skills.
"If you like this plum branch, Third Junior Sister, you can take it once I finish it."
Mo Shubai probably noticed how much she loved the white plum blossom fan, hence his comment.
Song Chi didn't mince words and immediately smiled and cupped his hands in thanks. "Then thank you very much, Senior Brother."
Next, Mo Shubai sat down at the table, probably thinking she liked plum blossoms, and simply painted a few plum blossoms for her.
He taught very diligently, but she actually had ulterior motives. But there was no other way; at this point, he had to go for it.
When Mo Shubai handed him the paintbrush, Song Chi didn't take it, but instead smiled and said...
"Senior Brother, I like lotus flowers. Let's paint lotus flowers!"
Mo Shubai paused with his brush in hand, then smiled and glanced at her before nodding and saying, "Very well, then I will learn to paint lotus flowers."
They were quite obedient. But it's clearly too late to start learning to draw lotus flowers stroke by stroke now.
Moreover, the lotus flower to be painted wasn't just any lotus flower. Song Chi stopped pretending and simply spread his fingers, holding the twin lotus flowers of love from his storage ring in his palm.
"Senior Brother, I'd like to draw these two flowers."
At that moment, the entire study was quiet, and even the chirping insects outside the window seemed to pause for a moment.
At this moment, Song Chi glanced somewhat timidly out the window.
Then there was silence.
"Very well." Mo Shubai's casual remark made Song Chi turn around involuntarily. Senior Brother, you can't just say everything is fine.
But whatever, this moment is truly wonderful.
Mo Shubai met her gaze, his eyebrows and eyes slightly smiling, truly like a blue lotus in the water.
"Therefore, let's begin by sketching..."
Song Chi pointed to his half-open lotus flower. "Senior Brother, you draw this one first." Jin Juan stipulated that they must draw each other's love lotus flowers separately. There were quite a few requirements.
Mo Shubai glanced at him then, then lowered her eyes slightly. "Very well."
He is quite open to good advice.
He then began to paint the lotus flower, and after a few strokes...
Song Chi's nose twitched slightly. "Alright, Senior Brother, now let me give you a live demonstration of a lecherous act. Please don't be too shocked." She extended her right hand and grasped Mo Shubai's hand as he painted. At that moment, the two looked at each other, but Mo Shubai's hand remained steady; he wasn't so shocked that he dropped his brush.
However, the air felt somewhat stuffy due to the excessive quiet.
"Senior brother, this will help me to clearly perceive the subtle brushstrokes you use to refine my writing, making it easier for me to learn."
Song Chi shamelessly blatantly lied.
Mo Shubai glanced at her briefly, then lowered his eyes.
"Um."
He actually just grunted in agreement and continued drawing without any problem. Senior Brother, you—! You're so easy to be lured away like this.
Whether or not they achieved perfect telepathy, Song Chi did indeed carefully observe Mo Shubai's brushstrokes. She didn't want to perform too poorly and upset the master painter.
The music stopped for Venerable Xueqiao, and a boy brought tea, which he then enjoyed drinking.
His divine sense actually circled the clouds and waves of the Cloud Sea Pine Mountain, and just happened to pass over the Listening Spring Pavilion, where he saw this handshake and painting scene.
I choked on a mouthful of tea.
You brat—! Oh dear, look… this is how she learns to draw.
By this time, the half-open lotus flower had been finished.
“I’ll paint this one. Senior Brother, please give me your opinion,” Song Chi said immediately.
Only then did Venerable Xueqiao realize that it was actually the Twin Lotus of Love. His face twitched involuntarily. This brat… look at her wrist, sigh. No wonder Shu Bai fell for her.
However, Venerable Xueqiao was unaware of Song Chi's painting skills. Her calligraphy was quite good, but she had never been seen practicing painting.
In the study, the two switched places. Song Chi sat upright in a chair, pen in hand, while Shu Bai stood beside her.
Song Chirun dipped his brush in ink with practiced ease, but before he started writing, he looked rather clueless, unsure of where to begin.
That didn't seem like an act at all. No, as soon as she uttered those words, Venerable Xueqiao realized that this girl was probably faking it.
Song Chi said, "Senior Brother, I feel like I don't know where to start."
“You are still a beginner in painting, so it’s natural that your skills are still developing,” Shu Bai said.
"How about this?" The brat tilted her head slightly and looked at her senior brother. "Senior brother, you hold my hand and draw, how about that?"
Venerable Xueqiao: "..." This time he was truly speechless.
That shameless girl, how could she say such a thing?
"Very well." Shu Bai's words made Venerable Xue Qiao slightly unsteady on his teacup.
The young man maintained his calm and composed attitude, just like everyone else.
However, when his hand grasped that slender little hand, Venerable Xueqiao noticed that Shu Bai's entire back was so soft it seemed to be soaking with water. But his expression remained that of a refined and noble young master, as if he were truly teaching his third junior sister to paint.
This time, Venerable Xueqiao also noticed that Song Chi seemed a little uneasy.
Although it was only for a moment, when Shu Bai caught this emotion, he saw that the boy's eyes were filled with tenderness and a little joy for a fleeting instant.
Then, the two of them seriously and earnestly finished drawing the twin lotus flowers.
After that, Venerable Xueqiao didn't look any further. He just felt that this couple should really be together this time. Then he sighed, "That brat doesn't hold back when she makes a move, but when she does, she goes all out. Look at her, she's basically never left the house for the past ten years, and now that she's out... they're holding hands."
It's no wonder that Shu Bai was defeated by this girl.
Song Chi and Mo Shubai were "highly focused" on completing the lotus painting. Whether they were truly in love or not is unknown, but they were probably on the same wavelength.
In short, when the brush touched the last stroke, whether it was the fragrance of lotus flowers blowing in from the pond by the window or something else, there was indeed a faint lotus fragrance lingering in the air.
When she stood up, she realized that it seemed that the lotus scent was actually in Mo Shubai's incense.
In short, the golden ticket notification was successful.
Why think about anything else? As soon as she finished painting, she carefully blew on the ink to dry it.
"Senior Brother, I want to keep this painting as a treasure, so I'll take it with me."
“Okay.” Mo Shubai readily agreed.
As soon as Song Chi finished his task, he took his leave out of habit.
"Senior Brother, I'll come back to learn painting from you again tomorrow night." She remembered to say this politely when she reached the door. Otherwise, it would be too much of a jerk.
But I reckon even if she comes over tomorrow night to play the piano with Mo Shubai, she won't learn this stuff. She really isn't that interested in painting.
"I'll see my third junior sister off."
Mo Shubai then followed her down the mountain, and the two walked around Mingjing Lake, only chatting about the upcoming sacrificial ceremony in Changge City.
They soon arrived at the Scarlet Rose Pavilion, where Song Chi invited Mo Shubai inside, but he politely declined. The two then parted ways.
Song Chi entered the house happily, but kept an eye on Jin Juan to see if she was up to something again. Lately, these missions were either in the bedroom or the bathtub; it felt like the bar was constantly being lowered.
Who knows, maybe they'd throw her a bath or something here. Luckily, they didn't, and Jin Juan remained quiet afterward.
She thought that she only needed to pretend to learn from Mo Shubai for about ten days before setting off for Changge City, and then she would forget about learning to paint.
As a result, she didn't need to make any excuses.
The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, she had just gotten up and was sitting on the steps, enjoying the beautiful morning while gazing at the rose garden in the morning mist, when Mo Shubai arrived.
He had come to say goodbye. He explained that the Immortal Lotus's spiritual root had reached a crucial stage of growth, and that he and the Immortal Lotus had been bound by a karmic connection since childhood. Therefore, he had to return home to stay by the Immortal Lotus's side and wait for its spiritual root to fully mature. Consequently, he could no longer teach her to paint.
Song Chi immediately smiled and waved her hand, saying that it was something she didn't like to learn either, so this was even better.
“However, why don’t my master and I set off with our senior brother? We’ll be going to Changge City within ten days anyway.”
Mo Shubai smiled faintly and shook his head, saying, "I'm rushing back because I need to change to a special formation. Third Junior Sister, you should stay with Master and travel slowly to Changge City."
Upon hearing that they needed to switch to the grand formation, Song Chi immediately swallowed back the words he was about to say. His last experience riding the grand formation with his junior uncle was the most terrifying memory of his life. Although his cultivation had improved now, things might be better. But…
"Well, in that case, Senior Brother, please be careful on your journey." Song Chi immediately changed his words.
"Yes, I'll wait for you all in Changge City, Third Junior Sister."
Mo Shubai smiled and agreed, but as he left, he let out a soft, muffled chuckle.
They're probably laughing at her for being 'not loyal enough'. But that big formation... well... Senior Brother, you'd better hurry home. After all, it seems the Immortal Lotus is trying to restore some ancient immortal aura, and it looks very powerful. As the son of the Immortal Lotus, it needs his soul to be soothed right now, so it's only right that Mo Shubai go back to be with it. Hopefully, everything goes smoothly.
Ten days later, Song Chi also followed the main force of the Qingjian Sect to Changge City.
Youqin was unable to go this time because she had only recently reached the Nascent Soul stage and needed to meditate.
The others, like Dai Jia, were all going, and surprisingly, Shi Yuan'er was also on the list. She truly kept her promise and was going to help her master seize the immortal artifacts and magical treasures of the righteous path's Ascension Realm. Perhaps this was also some kind of opportunity for her to become a protector?
To be honest, how to unseal the Flying Immortal Platform, especially the enhanced version she has now obtained, is unknown. To avoid detection by the evil spirits, even Song Chi doesn't know what these crucial steps entail, let alone anyone else. Even Qi Zhenmo, the fortune teller, probably only knows a portion of the Heavenly Mystery Sect's missions.
Therefore, it's impossible to guess what Dao Shi Yuan'er is protecting. It's probably related to her swordsmanship; even a layman like Song Chi could see an unusual Daoist aura in Shi Yuan'er's swordsmanship—what his master called spiritual energy. Mo Feiyun seems to possess this kind of spiritual energy as well, but Song Chi has never seen it in anyone else.
It was these two who were led into the Enchanted Realm by Immortal Lord Qiongyu, and presumably received guidance in swordsmanship.
In short, after Dai Jia fought with Shi Yuan'er at the lantern festival, her goal of becoming stronger immediately shifted from Su Yu to Shi Yuan'er. Every few days, she would find an opportunity to fight Shi Yuan'er.
Shi Yuan'er was the lazy kind of genius, so naturally she couldn't keep up and would come to Song Chi every now and then to yell at Dai Jia for being crazy. However, it was clear that in order to help her master obtain the immortal artifact, she didn't give up sparring with Dai Jia.
However, actually, she didn't need to snatch that immortal artifact. In fact, as long as Xie Lanqing obtained the artifact crafting inheritance and achieved the Nascent Soul cultivation, he could craft it.
However, the book mentions that Xie Lanqing's acquisition of the weapon-refining inheritance had a slight problem. Although the immortal weapon she ultimately forged did indeed have a weapon spirit, the spirit was somewhat slow-witted. Therefore, when it helped the protagonist group withstand the heavenly lightning, it was slightly less effective, resulting in the protagonist group being nearly killed by the lightning tribulation...
Xie Lanqing obtained this opportunity to inherit the art of weapon crafting during this sacrificial ceremony.
Song Chi felt that she should have a mission here. However, after traveling for a month or two with frequent stops, she arrived in Changge City in the golden autumn season, but she still hadn't received a single sound of the Golden Scroll.
She couldn't help but shed tears of shared pain, fearing the terrible tribulation that was about to strike...
No way. If a task comes at such a crucial moment, she'll definitely work her hardest to complete it. She can't stand any pain.
This time, the Azure Sword Sect was actually one of the last groups to arrive at Changge City, dragging their feet.
It was the first day of the ninth lunar month, while the sacrificial ceremony was to be held on the fifteenth of the ninth lunar month.
Half a month before the official festival, large-scale Nuo mask parades would begin every evening in the city.
When Song Chi and his group arrived, the sun had just set, and in the dim light, lanterns throughout the city suddenly lit up, followed by the crackling of firecrackers from all directions. Tall, masked Nuo gods with evil and fierce faces began their procession through the streets, passing colorful ribbons fluttering in the air and the smoke from incense mixed with the smoke of firecrackers.
This kind of Nuo-masked evil god is nothing more than imitating the ferocity and terror of evil spirits, but because it is too fierce, it carries a strange kind of divinity. The people in the city have a certain degree of awe for this Nuo-masked god, and whenever it passes by a house, cannons are fired in unison, as if to send the evil god away.
Song Chi, smelling the smoke, sulfur, and incense ash filling the city, stayed at the guild hall that night to wash up, and nothing much happened.
Meanwhile, on Song Chi's side, the golden scroll suddenly moved in the middle of the night. It prompted her that when she went to the Mo family to retrieve the immortal lotus root, she must wear a lotus-patterned immortal robe to gain the favor of the immortal lotus. Otherwise, she might not even be able to retrieve the immortal root.
This one with the ancient, ethereal charm really does have a bit of a temper!
As for what the lotus-patterned fairy robe is, the golden scroll hints that it's the white lotus-patterned robe she previously received from participating in Immortal Lord Qiongyu's Mortal World Romance. However, the golden scroll also indicates that the new robe needs to be cleaned.
That won't do. This outfit has bloodstains from when she took that selfie on her dantian, and moss marks from when she crawled on her knees before being kidnapped by Hua Shalan. She washed it carefully afterward, but it just wouldn't come clean. This kind of fairy robe feels similar to high-end haute couture from later generations—beautiful to look at but not durable. Once a stain appears, it can't be removed.
The next morning, Song Chi asked his master about this fabric and learned that it was indeed unique to the Mo family and not for sale to outsiders.
There was no other way. Song Chi immediately sent someone to deliver a letter to the Mo family, making sure that the letter was delivered before Mo Shubai arrived at the guild hall, so that he could send her a bolt of fabric.
Next, there's the matter of tailoring clothes, which will take some time. Master is scheduled to go to the Mo family in two days, as previously agreed.
Venerable Xueqiao saw that Song Chi had sent someone with an urgent message early in the morning.
"It must be delivered to the eldest brother as soon as possible, before he leaves for the guild hall."
They also gave the messenger a top-grade spirit stone, which immediately made the messenger beam with joy.
"I'll definitely deliver it to Senior Sister Song. I'd rather die than miss the appointed time." The boy immediately dashed out like the wind.
To be honest, Song Chi, being a Nascent Soul cultivator, should have long ago received a Daoist title. However, this batch of disciples was probably a bunch of good-for-nothings, and none of them bothered to take on a Daoist title. And it wasn't just the Azure Sword Sect; it seemed the entire cultivation world was like this... So the disciples continued to address each other as senior brothers and sisters.
As for Shu Bai... he arrived really quickly, almost at the entrance of the guild hall around dawn.
The messenger boy returned with them, and judging from his cheerful expression, the letter had probably been delivered. Song Chi was already waiting at the door.
"Senior Brother, did you bring it?"
"I brought it."
After the two of them came over to greet him, Song Chi happily followed her senior brother to the next courtyard.
Venerable Xueqiao was quite curious about what exactly this thing was that had gone through so much trouble to send a letter.
The result was the lotus-patterned jade fairy satin.
"Huh? They're all already made, and they're exactly my size."
Shu Bai, on the other hand, was very serious. "It was prepared a long time ago, but I forgot to give it to my third junior sister because of the urgent matter at the Azure Sword Sect."
"Thank you, Senior Brother. I actually love this fabric the most. Wow, there are more than ten sets! The headdresses and other accessories are all new designs. Senior Brother has really gone to great lengths."
"It's alright. Our family has always been famous for weaving!"
That can't withstand your constant barrage of attacks... Venerable Xueqiao couldn't help but grumble inwardly.
"Senior Brother, is there any reason for this lotus-patterned jade brocade? I'd like to wear it when I visit your family, would that be impolite?"
"It's alright, we usually wear lotus-patterned jade fairy satin."
"Shu Bai, you..." Venerable Xue Qiao clicked his tongue, "Never mind, I'm too lazy to expose this kid."
He guessed that when Shu Bai came to the guild hall to pick them up to go to the Mo family the day after tomorrow, the boy would definitely be wearing a lotus-patterned jade fairy satin.
Sure enough, on the morning of the third day, Shu Bai arrived dressed in white, stepping through the morning mist. Today he was even more formal, with the slightly antique-style tassel at his waist, a pattern that only the young master of the Mo family would wear. Even the jade pendant with the yellow lotus pattern had a rustic and weathered feel, probably an important jade design passed down through generations of the Mo family.
But Shu Bai remained as nonchalant as ever, while that brat was rather dim-witted and didn't really pay attention to these details.
Wearing a white lotus-patterned dress with an almost identical antique jade accent that her senior brother had prepared for her, the two of them stood together, looking like a pair of jade beauties.
Venerable Xueqiao only glanced at Shubai briefly and did not expose him.
The three then boarded the Mo family's carriage and set off. As Shu Bai and Song Chi left, several gloomy gazes secretly rushed over.
The hateful gazes only disappeared after the carriages and horses had left Changge City.
Venerable Xueqiao: "..." If this girl offends a few more, she'll have a hard time. Fortunately, she's been behaving herself in Changge City this time, staying in the guild hall for three days without going anywhere. Even when her girlfriends invited her to go shopping, she didn't go.
It seems that Shu Bai has finally managed to quell that flirtatious nature. That's for the best; Shu Bai's efforts have been worthwhile.
The Mo family is located on the west bank of the vast Qinglian Lake, about 200 miles outside Changge City. The Jiang family, also one of the eight great families, is located at the northernmost end of Qinglian Lake, which is actually about 200 to 300 miles away.
From the outside, the Mo family looks similar to the Cui family in the Yunji Holy Land, with a fresh and natural style, like a hermit living in the mountains.
Even the plaque with the four characters "Lotus Retreat in the Mountains" in the middle of the shady trees is made of very simple and natural solid wood, and it seems reluctant to even apply a little paint.
Song Chi couldn't help but think to himself that there must be a reason why the Mo family was the most low-key among the eight great families.
But as soon as she entered the gate... she immediately retracted the thought.
The visual impact of those imposing, dark buildings scattered across the mountains was not much different from when I visited the Wen family. The oppressive feudal aristocratic atmosphere was still very strong. The only difference was that the Mo family might have pursued a natural style, with most of their buildings being log cabins, and the wooden structures were almost all just coated with clear varnish.
This will greatly reduce that feeling of oppression.
But it's out of the question to have Song Chi live in a place like this every day. She definitely prefers the natural scenery and simple architecture of the sect, where she can feel free and comfortable.
Mo Shubai suddenly said from the side.
"I usually prefer the tranquility of the sect."
That's true. In the end, he preferred to live in seclusion rather than inherit the Mo family business. After all, he was a disciple whom his master truly loved, and their temperaments were naturally similar—quiet and unassuming.
Song Chi met his gaze for a moment, then smiled.
As Xueqiao Venerable stood ahead, he noticed that the old man Qingchenzi, who was greeting him, couldn't help but break off a beard upon hearing this. He couldn't help but chuckle to himself. Although Qingchenzi had always been willing to send Shubai to the Qingjian Sect to become an apprentice because he doted on Shubai, he was actually preparing for Shubai to take on the responsibility of the family.
Among the younger generation of the Mo family, Shu Bai is indeed the most outstanding.
However, fearing that his third junior sister might not like this strict family, Shu Bai quickly added this sentence, which made Venerable Xue Qiao smile.
It's good that Shu Bai has this intention. He can keep these two right in front of him, watching them be sweet and loving without any worries, which puts his mind at ease.
