Shen Hanfang felt that Zhu Qianying would like what she said.
They would probably echo her words and say a few words of congratulations to Yi for being stupid.
Zhu Qianying smiled faintly: "How Master Yujing teaches Sister Yi is not something we juniors can casually comment on. Junior Sister Shen, please be careful with your words."
“My younger sister has always been weak and mischievous. There must be a reason why Master Yujing asks her to do things. As her elder sister, I only hope that my younger sister Yi will get better.”
After saying that, Zhu Qianying lowered her eyes and carefully teased the little sparrow in her hand.
The little sparrows chirped and chattered, giving Shen Hanfang a headache.
But she was adept at changing her tune depending on the situation. She felt that by staying by Zhu Qianying's side, she could definitely find an opportunity to cause trouble for Zhu Yi and the other two. She smiled awkwardly and said, "Sister Qianying is right. I also envy Zhu Yi's good luck. Sister Qianying always thinks of Zhu Yi. It's her blessing! I've only told you this. I wouldn't dare to spread it around."
Shangguan Wenqi, who had been standing guard by Zhu Qianying's side, sneered: "Only you are soft-hearted, taking care of your half-sister in every way. First she talked back to you, then she asked you for spirit stones. She really doesn't understand the rules and is greedy!"
"Senior Brother Shangguan, please don't say that. Sister Yi has been frail and sickly since childhood, so it's only right that I take care of her more."
"You! Junior Sister Ying, don't be too kind-hearted! You should know that kindness is often taken advantage of. In the future, stop caring so much about your half-sister!" Shangguan Wenqi looked at Zhu Qianying quietly, his eyes gentle and tender, full of both admonition and helplessness.
"What if your half-sister comes to you again and asks for this and that, and you don't have enough of what she wants?"
His eyes reflected the flickering red glow of the campfire, shining as he looked at Zhu Qianying. The mockery he showed towards Zhu Yi turned to Zhu Qianying with a touch of doting affection.
Zhu Qianying avoided eye contact, lowered her eyes, and did not answer Shangguan Wenqi's question. Instead, she turned to Shen Hanfang and tried to say something else.
If Zhu Yi knew what they were saying about her behind her back, her fiery temper would definitely flare up, and she'd surely find all sorts of excuses to keep asking Zhu Qianying for this and that!
What a joke! Zhu Yicai has no villainous wealth; it's all tainted wealth. The protagonist, being of noble character, shouldn't be eyeing the villain's pockets...
The original owner was bullied so badly by Zhu Qianying from childhood to adulthood. She fell into an icy lake in winter and stood under the scorching sun to pick up beans in summer. Zhu Qianying often snatched the allowances issued by the Zhu family and used them to reward the servants. She could not comfort Zhu Yi's wounded little heart without getting some money from Zhu Qianying!
That's certainly what Zhu Yi thought, but the problem she's facing now is very tricky.
She and her friends were exhausted.
Zhu Yi felt that her spiritual energy was being drained by the fireballs she was condensing. The weakness brought on by hunger made her tremble. Looking around, the demonic blood flowers spread across the large hillside, like a layer of soybeans rolling around.
I'm suddenly developing trypophobia; if I look at these things too much, all I see in my head are sharp teeth and mouths.
This thing is too weird. The more Demon Blood Flowers fall, the more excited the Demon Blood Flowers that attack again become!
The pit that the Demon Blood Flower fell into was soon filled by other Demon Blood Flowers. Zhu Yi and Wei Wei each used their own methods to create fireballs, while Zhu Yi and Wei Wei repeatedly drew fire-burning talismans instead of sitting still.
Xue Shan would occasionally unleash sword energy to stop the Demon Blood Flowers from advancing and clear away the Demon Blood Flowers that were about to climb to her feet.
Zhu Yi swallowed the fourth Spirit-Replenishing Pill, but finally couldn't hold on any longer and had to stop condensing a new fireball.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind: "If only I could fly into the sky, like a bird in a tree..."
Halfway through her sentence, Zhu Yi took out the Crane Feather Flying Device, which she hadn't used in a long time. Just as she was about to add activation spirit stones to the device, a soft, childlike voice echoed in her mind: "Tch! Running away already?"
"A wise person knows when to yield! We're all going to lose, so of course we have to save our lives first."
Zhu Yi, lacking any of the courage of a cultivator to forge ahead, was mocked by the soft, childlike voice in her mind.
"Shouldn't we cultivators take it upon ourselves to slay demons and monsters? What kind of person runs away halfway through a fight?"
"The more we fight, the more Demon Blood Flowers there are, and there's dust rising from the hillside behind us, so there must be a whole bunch more on the way. The three of us are exhausted. How are we supposed to fight them?"
"I don't want to run into the demons and get beaten up like I did last time on Bright Moon Street. It would be too embarrassing to go back seriously injured!" Zhu Yi was a little guilty. Actually, she didn't intend to hide in the Crane Feather Flying Vehicle and fly away.
But now that it's past midnight, Zhu Yi feels that she and her girlfriends need to rest...
The girl's soft, childlike voice said arrogantly, "Don't you know? Plants or animals that appear in groups like these all have a alpha leader, don't you?"
Zhu Yi was slightly stunned; she had forgotten about that. It seemed her mind wasn't sharp enough in actual combat...
Go back and study more military strategy! The key is to capture the leader first! If she only leads her friends to fight head-on and rely on sheer numbers, they'll definitely outnumber her and be outmatched!
The little baby should reappear. She says, "Oh dear, I even brought you the crystal goggles, so of course you have to make good use of them!"
The biggest, most special, and safest place is definitely the leader!
The little baby wouldn't say that to Zhu Yi; she'd let her see for herself.
"Also, I have to tell you something: the three of you have been followed. It was those two little sparrows in the tree across the street. Now only one is left; the other has gone back to warn others!"
"I don't know why someone was following you, but you didn't even notice, which is very disappointing! How can my master be so stupid?" The little baby voice looked down on Zhu Yi, with obvious disdain.
Zhu Yi looked up and saw that there was indeed only one little sparrow left on a branch not far away.
Standing alone on the branch, its small figure hidden in the night, Zhu Yi would have had a hard time spotting the little sparrow if it weren't for the protective goggles.
Who would be so interested in following three junior disciples in the Qi Refining stage?
Zhu Yi secretly wondered if it was Zhu Qianying.
If she could use Zhu Qianying's spirit stone pouch to track and observe Zhu Qianying's whereabouts, then why couldn't Zhu Qianying use one or two small spirit beasts to secretly follow her?
"Alright, that's all I'll tell you! If you're too stupid, I'll lose face too!"
"Remember, you need to collect the red crystals from this Demon Blood Flower. I need them." As she spoke, Zhu Yi produced a red and black storage bag embroidered with cloud patterns.
"This thing is very precious. If we put it in a magic-locking bag, the demonic energy won't leak out!"
