A breeze blew into the second floor through the window, rustling the bamboo grove outside, which only accentuated the silence inside.
A quarter of an hour passed.
No one was speaking.
Yu was going crazy; he was an impatient person to begin with.
Now everyone is silent, and the bamboo house is completely quiet.
What's the meaning?
Is he the only one who wants to know what this Madam Qi is talking about?
Raising his hand and ruffling his long hair, Yu Ye cried out in a frenzy, "What does it look like?"
"What exactly does my junior sister resemble, Madam Qi? Please finish what you have to say!"
Otherwise, he, as a mere spectator, would be so anxious and restless, unable to get the full juicy story, how could he possibly get any rest tonight?!
Yu Ye's crazy appearance was truly terrifying.
Madam Qi looked up at him, and the latter seemed frozen in place, no longer daring to move.
He chuckled awkwardly at the end, "Haha, you guys chat, you guys chat."
After saying that, he grabbed his fellow disciples and pulled them aside.
"Senior Brother, you're old. Do you know anyone in this world who looks like Junior Sister?"
Su Daiyuan's temple throbbed as he was told he looked old. "I've only lived a few decades longer than you. I've spent all that extra time cultivating."
Yu immediately gave him a 'useless' look.
Lu Qing'an and Lu Jingshen shook their heads as well. "Why are you asking us? Back in the Invincible Sect, we brothers spent every single day together."
Lu Jingshen nodded, "If you're so capable, go ask Madam Qi."
Yu Ye's features contorted for a moment, "If I dared to ask, would I need to drag you all along? Is it wrong for me to be a coward?!"
Before he could look up at Guan Yunchuan again, a laser cannon was pointed at his forehead. "You're interrupting my meal, I'll kill you."
have to.
The five disciples of the Invincible Sect are all utterly useless.
Yu was speechless.
Sheng Ning overheard the whispers of her senior brothers who were hiding in the corner.
A smile played on her lips as she turned to look at the person before her. "Is Madam Qi referring to an old friend?"
Sheng Ning never investigated the original owner's background.
After all, she was a good-for-nothing who possessed five elemental roots and whose life was better than that of a dog in the Taixu Sect.
Her parents left her at the Taixu Sect, perhaps hoping she would become a useful person.
However, they did not live to see their daughter succeed. In the book, their daughter was expelled from the Taixu Sect and eventually starved to death on the street.
Madam Qi looked at the clear-eyed Sheng Ning and smiled slightly. "Yes, very much so."
As she spoke, a hint of sadness flashed in her eyes, "Unfortunately, she has already passed away."
Sheng Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
Qi Wenyao had been inside Madam Qi's body for hundreds of years, and was only two or three hundred years old at the time, yet he was already a sword cultivator at the fifth level of the Integration Realm.
But she's different.
If she hadn't transmigrated and met the senior brothers of the Invincible Sect, she might have starved to death on the streets long ago.
Therefore, she could not be Lady Qi's old friend, much less Nezha!
"Please accept my condolences, Madam Qi."
When Madam Qi raised her head again, the dimness in her eyes had disappeared.
She pursed her lips and explained why she had trapped Su Daiyuan and the others here.
"Yao'er said he found someone who can restore my body. I'm sorry for keeping you trapped here for so long."
Upon hearing this, Yu Ye, sporting a messy head of hair, looked over and asked, "A capable person? Us?"
"What a joke! There are only seven people in the entire Invincible Sect, and my junior sister is only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Your son could easily crush us, okay?"
In terms of self-awareness and avoiding getting involved in any troublesome matters, Yu Ye is quite clear-headed.
Madam Qi shook her head, and finally her gaze fell on Sheng Ning.
"Regardless of your cultivation level, you are the first person to break the formation I set up."
One game of chess can break a formation.
Sheng Ning was taken aback by the praise.
She subconsciously turned to look at Su Daiyuan, and only after seeing the latter nod did she understand everything.
The housekeeper brought them here on purpose.
Because Su Daiyuan and his group couldn't break the chess game, they weren't the people Madam Qi wanted to choose.
However, Qi Wenyao said that they were quite capable, so Madam Qi wanted to give them one last try to see if she and her two senior brothers, Lu Qing'an, could be chosen by the former.
She inadvertently broke the game of chess, which is why Madam Qi said those things.
Sheng Ning took a deep breath and took a step back. "I just happened to..."
yes.
She loves to stir up trouble.
However, this time she came to the Northern Region not only to enter the secret realm, but also for the totem.
They're not here to help the Qi family with their tasks!
Madam Qi seemed to have anticipated that she wouldn't want to get too involved in the Qi family's affairs, and her smile remained as gentle as ever.
"Yao'er won't force you, it's just that my husband..."
When her husband was mentioned, the light in Mrs. Qi's eyes completely disappeared.
She suddenly got up and walked to a cabinet, opened it, and a jade hairpin came into the view of Sheng Ning and the others.
Madam Qi turned slightly to the side and said softly, "This is the jade hairpin that my husband gave me when we became engaged."
“Take this. If he makes things difficult for you, just give him this hairpin, and he will let you go.”
The carving of the jade hairpin is not very exquisite; in fact, it can be considered rough.
Even so, Sheng Ning and the others could still see how much their master loved it.
The jade hairpin was carved with several small characters in regular script, and judging from the handwriting, it must have been written by Madam Qi.
Sheng Ning didn't immediately reach for the jade hairpin, but instead exchanged glances with Madam Qi. "Madam and Master Qi..."
