When we returned to the inn, the door was no longer closed.
The door was wide open, and Su Daiyuan and the others sat anxiously on the steps at the entrance.
When they saw Sheng Ning leading Bai Ze this way from afar, Su Daiyuan and the other three immediately stood up and walked quickly toward them.
"Senior brother, look at you. Are you injured? You seem to have lost some weight. I'll take you to the street to eat something good to nourish yourself later."
"Senior Brother, don't be ridiculous. Junior Sister has only been out for a few hours, how could she have lost weight? She looks like she's gotten darker. Third Senior Brother, do you have any whitening pills here? Would you like to take a couple?"
"You two are being ridiculous. Junior Sister has been gone for so long, she must be exhausted. She should go in and rest with Fourth Senior Brother."
"...It's good that you came back alive." Guan Yunchuan pursed his lips, his eyes still showing a hint of relief and joy.
Sheng Ning looked at the senior brothers in front of her and couldn't help but smile. "We're back!"
Lu Qingan, standing beside him, spoke in a deep voice, "What? Nobody cares if I get lost?"
Look at how fawning they are over their junior sister!
What a spineless coward!
Lu Qingan snorted coldly, grabbed Sheng Ning's hand and led her into the inn, "Let's go back to the room and have some water first."
Sheng Ning smiled and obediently followed him into the inn.
The waiter, who had been anxiously wondering if Sheng Ning and the others would be able to return, widened his eyes and ran forward when he saw that Sheng Ning had indeed returned.
"You've really come back? Where are the women and children?"
Sheng Ning stopped and their eyes met. The smile in her eyes had not yet faded, and in the waiter's eyes, it was like the brightest star in the night.
"They've all gone home. Don't worry, the demons won't be appearing again anytime soon."
Her words made the waiter breathe a sigh of relief.
But she only mentioned recently...
His face, which had just breathed a sigh of relief, furrowed again.
Just as the waiter was about to ask again when the demons would strike again, he saw Sheng Ning being pulled upstairs.
As soon as Lu Qingan went upstairs, he poured tea for his junior sister and then hurriedly returned to his original room to change his clothes.
As he changed into men's clothing, the thought that he was a cultivator suddenly popped into his mind.
He was a monk.
Changing clothes only requires a simple hand gesture.
Why would he still stick an invisibility talisman on his body so that others wouldn't be able to see him dressed as a woman?
Is it because he's been spending more time with the disciples of the Taixu Sect lately that he's become less intelligent?
He raised his hand and patted his head.
Lu Qing'an walked out of the room with a frustrated look on his face.
When he arrived at Sheng Ning's room, the first thing he saw was Ah Da and Ah Er kneeling in front of Sheng Ning.
"Hey, are the two brothers here paying respects to their parents?"
Yu Ye's eye twitched upon hearing this, feeling as if he had heard this line somewhere before.
It sounds familiar, but I can't quite place it.
Su Daiyuan sat to the side and, seeing him arrive, said, "Junior Sister is planning to open a shop in Youyun City, specifically for cultivators who have no money to come here to take on missions and earn money."
Ah Er looked at Sheng Ning with gratitude, "I originally thought Fellow Daoist Sheng was just saying it casually, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect..."
When he and A'da saw Sheng Ning and the other two return in triumph, they were relieved and ready to leave.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Ning called out and stopped them in their tracks.
"Here are ten thousand high-grade spirit stones, some high-grade spirit fruits, and some talismans, magic tools, and pills. Take these."
When Sheng Ning handed him the mustard seed bag, he was flattered and didn't dare to reach out to take it.
What Sheng Ning said next completely changed their lives from then on.
She said, "I'm giving you these. You can choose to take them and live a good life, or you can open a mercenary shop, just like I said before."
"As you can see, the Invincible Sect is too small. My fellow disciples and I are busy saving the world and don't have time to open a shop right now, so I can only find someone to do it for us."
“I won’t give you this money for nothing. If the mercenary shop makes a profit in the future, I will take two percent of it, and you can use the rest as you wish.”
Ah Er looked at the mustard seed bag in Sheng Ning's hand, then looked up at Sheng Ning again.
It felt like something was blocking his throat, and Ah Er remained silent for a long time before he could find his voice again.
"Aren't you afraid we'll embezzle so much money you're giving us?"
Sheng Ning glanced at him and smiled, "Didn't I say you can use this money to live a good life or open a shop? It's up to you."
“We, your fellow disciples, are currently in a weak position and cannot help so many cultivators. If you could use these things to open a mercenary shop so that more cultivators could have something to do and food to eat, that would be the best thing.”
Her voice still carried a hint of childishness.
Once a cultivator enters the mid-to-late stage of Foundation Establishment, it becomes very difficult to change their appearance.
Some people enter the mid-to-late stages of Foundation Establishment in their old age, and their appearance remains unchanged from when they were old.
If someone enters the mid-to-late stage of Foundation Establishment in their twenties, their appearance will remain youthful.
Age can be deceiving, but voice and bone age cannot.
As Ah Er listened to her voice, his eyes gradually reddened.
His Adam's apple bobbed, and after pulling Ah Da down to kneel, he kowtowed deeply to her. "We brothers thank Fellow Daoist Sheng on behalf of the other minor sect cultivators."
In this era when those who are not disciples of major sects cannot obtain good resources.
These things from Sheng Ning were like guiding lights, allowing A Da and A Er to see the path ahead again.
Sheng Ning could not accept such a generous gift.
She quickly helped the two of them up and stuffed the mustard seed bag into Ah Er's arms, saying, "Keep it up, I believe in you."
