"Let's go, let's set off!" Ziyou reached out and pulled Suiyi up from the ground, saying to the guards.
"Yes, young master!" came the orderly and forceful reply. Da Niu and Da Jiao silently followed behind Sui Yi.
After walking for two hours, the group finally emerged from the Enchanted Forest. If it weren't for Ziyou's antics, they probably would have already made it out.
The reason was that he wanted to spend more time with Suiyi, so he refused his attendants' suggestion to find a spirit beast to take him around.
"Ningning, are you tired?" Ziyou walked over to Suiyi's side and asked with concern.
"It's alright!" This short distance was no problem for her at all. Pretending to be a little out of breath was just an act in front of them. After all, she was still in the body of a 12-year-old, and if she did something too outrageous, it would arouse suspicion.
"There should be an inn up ahead; let's go there and rest." After leaving the Enchanted Forest, there's a wide main road. Along the roadside are several places that seem to be for travelers to rest.
"Okay!" Suiyi nodded, and Ziyou took Suiyi's hand and rushed forward first.
It turned out to be an eatery. After entering and sitting on a bench, Ziyou's entourage naturally moved to another table. Da Niu and Da Jiao both came to sit at Suiyi's table.
"How can these two be so oblivious? This young master Ci is spoiling his guards way too much! They're even sitting at the same table as the master." The other attendants felt a pang of jealousy.
Sui Yi didn't want to get involved, and Da Jiao and Da Niu were clueless and didn't understand the customs of the human world. To outsiders, this just meant they didn't know the rules!
Why are they all sitting with us?
"We've always been like this, do you have a problem with that?"
"Oh! No!" Ziyou said nothing more, but turned to look at the boss in the kitchen.
"Boss, give us a bowl of noodles!"
"Okay, it'll be ready soon!" the boss replied loudly and cheerfully.
Sui Yi surveyed her surroundings. Because this place was close to the Enchanted Forest, where spirit beasts would frequently emerge to forage, few people chose to open shops here. This owner's audacity in opening a shop on the edge of the Enchanted Forest suggested he possessed considerable power and was no ordinary person.
"Ningning, what are you looking at?" Ziyou asked curiously when he saw Suiyi looking around.
"This place is near the Enchanted Forest. The owner must be quite the expert to have the guts to open a shop here, right?"
"Hmm! Ningning, you're very observant. Did you notice the shopkeeper's distinctive gait? And his muscular build makes him look like someone who exercises regularly. Another point is that this place is not only close to the Magic Forest, but also quite near the Xuanfeng Sect. Disciples of the Xuanfeng Sect usually pass through here when they come down to shop. And as a disciple of a major sect, he certainly won't lack resources. If you treat them well, they might be happy and spend lavishly, which could make you rich. After all, the lives of cultivators and ordinary people are worlds apart."
“Your analysis is correct. By the way, after we finish eating, I want to go to the city to buy some essential supplies. Also, the Whirlwind Name assessment should be in three days, so we should find a place to stay during these three days.”
"Okay! I'll do whatever Ningning says."
Since meeting Suiyi, Ziyou has been an exceptionally obedient child. He does whatever Suiyi says without any objection and obeys unconditionally.
"The noodles are here, please enjoy!" The owner said with a smile, carrying a large plate and placing bowls of noodles on the table one by one.
"Thanks!"
"You're welcome! Are you two young masters also going to participate in the Xuanfeng Sect's assessment in three days?" The shopkeeper stopped what he was doing and stood in front of the table to ask. He was delighted to see two adorable little children for the first time and exchanged a few words with them.
"Yes, I wonder how long the boss has been here?"
"Hehe, I've been running this shop here for over ten years."
"Does the boss know what kind of tests are conducted in the Xuanfeng Sect?"
"One test is your willpower, and the other is your talent for cultivation. Since most kids your age haven't cultivated before, we accept them based on their aptitude. But I think you two little brothers should be able to pass the tests smoothly."
"Really? Hehe!" Ziyou chuckled to himself, knowing he could definitely do it. He'd show those heartless parents that he could do anything without them.
"By the way, boss, have you seen any spirit beasts here since you opened your shop on the edge of the Enchanted Forest?" Sui Yi asked, feigning innocence.
Ah Xing: Disgusting. As expected of an award-winning actress, her role-playing is completely natural. She looks just like a child when she plays a child, it's so lifelike.
“Spirit beasts? Of course there are! I see that both of you young masters come from the Enchanted Forest. Haven’t you seen any spirit beasts there?”
"Yes! We didn't see anything."
"You must have been lucky."
"Hurry up and eat your noodles, or they'll get cold!" Ziyou reminded Suiyi, somewhat annoyed, as she stared intently at the shop owner.
"Oh!" Suiyi looked down at the large bowl of noodles in front of her, picked up her chopsticks, stirred the seasoning a few times, and began to work hard.
Seeing Suiyi obediently eating noodles, Ziyou felt a sense of satisfaction.
