"A-Ning, what is this?"
At the town market, a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old was holding the hand of a little dumpling that looked two or three years old.
The young girl had bright eyes and white teeth, and was exceptionally beautiful. She was only dressed in a simple moon-white robe, which made her look even more beautiful.
The little dumpling she was holding was even more adorable in winter, with an innocent and carefree look.
The two men, each holding a string of candied hawthorns, attracted a lot of attention simply by strolling down the street.
Someone tried to approach them and strike up a conversation, but then saw five men with different personalities standing behind the two, so they immediately gave up the idea and only dared to observe from a distance.
When Sheng Ning saw the little dumpling stop, she looked over in the direction of his chubby little hand.
There was a wonton stall with steam rising from it, and the rich aroma of the food was very enticing.
A small spoonful of sesame oil is submerged in the thick soup, and then floats to the surface, making people swallow hard.
"Want some?"
Bai Ze has never left Tianling Mountain.
Naturally, they had never seen these things on the mainland.
He nodded emphatically, with sugar coating still clinging to the corner of his mouth. "I want some."
Sheng Ning immediately pulled him toward the wonton shop, "Boss, seven bowls of wontons, please!"
Su Daiyuan and the others who were carrying things behind them frowned.
They have already fasted and don't need to eat anything anymore.
However, now that their junior sister had ordered food for them, how could they, as her senior brothers, refuse her kindness?
In short, we will be able to return to the Invincible Sect in two days. As Junior Sister said, it would be a good thing to relax before going back.
As for Master...
In any case, Master is already invincible. Even if they go back two days later, Master won't starve to death!
Having made up their minds, Su Daiyuan and the others relaxed their furrowed brows and smiled.
When the piping hot wontons were served, Bai Ze looked at the plump white wontons in the porcelain bowl, picked up the spoon, and opened his mouth to put them in his mouth.
"ah--"
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" The wonton shop owner turned around immediately upon hearing the commotion.
Seeing Bai Ze's face scrunched up from the burn, and his lips red from the heat, the shopkeeper was at a loss. "Did you burn yourself? Did you eat too fast, young master?"
"I... I only run a small business here, so how about this, I won't charge you this time..."
This is an ordinary small town, and most people are ordinary. If someone in a family becomes a cultivator who has reached the Qi Refining stage, the neighbors will be envious and jealous.
Not to mention the ranks of Su Daiyuan and the others.
If word gets out, even the town mayor would probably have to come out to greet them personally.
The boss is just an ordinary person; you can't tell their rank.
Just by seeing that they were dressed in religious robes, they assumed they were extraordinary people.
In their sect, those who can enter are all arrogant and conceited.
These ordinary people have suffered a lot of bullying.
Fearing that Sheng Ning and his group were also like that, the boss could only swallow his anger and dare not utter a sound.
Bai Ze was indeed burned.
A few tears welled up in his eyes, and his small, red lips were slightly parted, even his tongue was red from the heat.
They looked so pitiful.
Sheng Ning laughed at him, saying, "I told you before not to rush when you eat, why don't you remember?"
"Boss, it's nothing. He just didn't listen to advice. He deserves to suffer a bit."
Without looking at Bai Ze's resentful gaze, she made a cooling gesture, placing her fingers on his lips to cool him down.
Seeing this, Su Daiyuan pushed her hand away, saying, "Junior Sister, let me do it."
Since his last seclusion, Su Daiyuan has awakened his ice-type spiritual root.
He controls his spiritual power better than Sheng Ning.
Seeing this, Sheng Ning had no doubts. After withdrawing his hand, he saw Su Daiyuan move his finger.
In an instant, Bai Ze's entire head was covered in frost.
The diners nearby couldn't help but shudder.
"Strange, it's not even winter yet, why is it suddenly so cold?"
Seeing that the little dumpling was about to be frozen, Sheng Ning quickly spoke up to stop him, "Senior Brother, that's enough!"
If it gets any colder, he'll get angry.
Upon hearing this, Su Daiyuan raised an eyebrow and immediately withdrew his spiritual power.
The little dumpling, which had been subjected to sudden temperature changes, sneezed as soon as it was thawed.
The shopkeeper had never seen a cultivator like Su Daiyuan who could control temperature, and his eyes widened in shock.
"You guys... are very capable?"
The boss's words made Sheng Ning raise an eyebrow. "He's not that amazing, is he?"
That is, they blew up the four main gates of the Taixu Sect, the leader of the four major sects.
And that's all. He just won first place in the sect competition.
It wasn't particularly powerful.
However, Sheng Ning did not say these words aloud.
After all, the bigger the tree, the more the wind will blow; with her tail held so high, she's bound to get beaten up.
Upon hearing Sheng Ning's modest words, the hope that had just appeared on the boss's face immediately faded.
He pursed his lips and said in a hoarse voice, "If that's the case... then it's alright. You can eat these wontons; they're free."
The boss was over fifty years old, with a hunched back, gray hair, and deep wrinkles on his face, clearly having experienced a lot.
Seeing him turn to leave with a disappointed look on his face, Sheng Ning immediately stopped him.
"However, we can fight any cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage. Boss, is there something troubling you?"
She spoke loudly, and the other diners eating wontons nearby heard her too.
This small town only produces a few cultivators every ten years, and they are all low-level cultivators.
In their eyes, a cultivator who has reached the Qi Refining Perfection stage is already quite remarkable.
