"Don't worry, the things inside aren't anything sinister; they're things you'll like," Sui Yi said helplessly.
"But all I see inside is some powder! It smells spicy." The Tenth Elder looked with his eyes, keeping one eye open and the other closed, and then smelled it with his nose, but he still couldn't tell what was inside.
"Silly, it's seasoning inside. Don't you like barbecue? With this seasoning, I guarantee it will smell amazing for miles around, making people and animals drool." Sui Yi raised her chin at him, speaking in a very tempting manner.
"Uh... how did you know I like doing that kind of thing?" The Tenth Elder had kept this hobby very well hidden, but nothing could escape the detection of divine language. Last night, Sui Yi saw him secretly roasting a spirit bird.
"How I know is none of your business. The important thing is that we'll bake together from now on. My skills are way better than yours, senior!"
"real?"
I'd be a dog if I lied!
"Okay! I'll take you with me next time I have the chance."
"It's a deal!"
The tenth elder immediately nodded, and then the two looked at each other and chuckled.
Excellent! The Tenth Elder has been won over to our side on the very first day! Next, we can try to get closer to everyone except the Fourth Elder. That way, even if we do something big in the future, someone will cover for us. Haha! That's great!
"Tenth Senior Brother, I'm going back now. Thank you for the booklet." Sui Yi cupped her hands in thanks to him, then got up and ran outside.
Suiyi walked to a corner, picked out a few gifts, and planned to try to get closer to the Twelfth Elder.
Arriving at the Twelfth Elder's hall, Sui Yi knocked on the door. A moment later, a young boy opened it. Seeing an unfamiliar face, he greeted him politely.
Who are you looking for?
"Is your master home? I need to speak with him about something."
"Yes, may I ask your name?"
"When you go to report for duty, just say that the junior brother has come to pay his respects to the senior brother."
"Okay, please wait a moment." After saying that, he pulled his head back and closed the door.
Sui Yi straightened herself up, feeling very confident. This twelfth senior brother was a talisman array fanatic. As long as she discussed it with him, she would probably win him over. That would be relatively easy.
"Junior Uncle, please come in!" The young boy who came in became even more respectful after learning Sui Yi's identity.
Sui Yi smiled and walked in, following behind Xiao Tong, until they reached the door of a room.
"Junior Uncle, please go in. The Immortal Master is inside."
"Hmm!" Suiyi nodded, pushed the door open and went in, but there was nothing inside, only emptiness.
Holy crap, they even put up a talisman array in their own room! What good stuff are they afraid someone will steal? Sui Yi rolled her eyes and started looking for the array's core. As long as it's an array, no matter what kind, finding the core will break it!
Sui Yi released her spiritual power, scrutinizing every unusual detail of the room. "Found it, this is it." Sui Yi reached into her pocket and pulled out a talisman, pinching it between two fingers and applying force to the array's core. The talisman flew like a dart to the core, breaking the array and revealing the room's true form.
Upon seeing the scene inside the room, Sui Yi was speechless. This room was truly a treasure trove; all the furnishings were made of jade and spirit stones. No wonder she felt a massive surge of spiritual energy as soon as she opened the door.
Sui Yi stepped inside, looked at the jade stones under her feet, and stopped. It was a difficult choice whether to walk on them with her shoes on or without them.
"What a rare guest! What brings you to my humble abode?"
As Suiyi was struggling, a rather pleasant male voice rang out from all around, making it impossible to pinpoint the person's location.
“Senior brother, as a junior brother, it would be proper for me to pay a respectful visit since I am new here, wouldn’t it?” Sui Yi said, looking up.
"Hehe! You're very welcome." Suddenly, a light flashed before Sui Yi's eyes, and a figure dressed in white with silver hair flowing down his back appeared. Even just from his back, she could feel an ethereal aura. Hopefully, it wasn't just a back view that could kill.
Wait a minute, Sui Yi suddenly realized that she had seen all twelve elders yesterday, but none of them seemed to have this figure.
"Are you... my twelfth senior brother?" Suiyi asked tentatively.
"What? Are you feeling anything?"
"It's a little different from what I saw yesterday."
"So, are you looking at someone who is young or old?"
"He's young now. From behind, he looks like a handsome young man. I just don't know if his face will be a disappointment." Sui Yi spoke the truth, which made the Twelfth Elder burst into laughter.
He slowly turned around, and the moment Sui Yi saw his face, all she wanted to do was unleash a torrent of curses.
This face is clearly Leng Tianyi's face, what's going on? Looking at this face, Sui Yi quickly calmed down. The enemy situation is unclear, and she cannot act rashly.
"What? Are you satisfied with my face, Junior Brother?" the man asked with a wicked grin. Sui Yi just wanted to peel that face off; it was simply too... too disgusting. The preconceived notion of using that face to make that expression was utterly unacceptable. Sui Yi suddenly lowered her head, unable to bear looking.
"Has Senior Brother always looked like this?" Sui Yi asked.
"What, you're not good-looking? Then look up and see how I look?" The man's voice rang in her ears, and Sui Yi slowly looked up.
I don't want to talk anymore. This face has changed again; it's the face of Qi Muzhi from the Apocalypse.
"Who exactly are you?" Sui Yi asked in a low voice, her face cold, with an air of "I'll kill you if you don't explain yourself."
"Alright, alright! I just thought it was funny, don't be surprised." After saying that, she changed back, and Sui Yi finally put away her hostility. But she still looked at him coldly.
