Sheng Ning's words stunned both Lu Qing'an and the other person.
The two shop owners were stunned into silence.
Only Sheng Ning, while they were lost in thought, put all the useful treasures into his mustard seed bag.
After she had packed up most of the things, she stretched and smiled at her two senior brothers behind her, "Not bad for today, right, second and third senior brothers?"
Lu Qing'an and the other person had become immune to the simplified way of addressing their junior sister.
The two nodded in agreement, saying, "It's really good."
They've done plenty of things to uphold justice.
This is the first time I've ever robbed someone in the name of upholding justice.
Surprisingly, this feeling is not bad?
When the two shop owners came to their senses, they found that all the treasures were gone.
It's obvious whose pockets all those treasures ended up in.
With tears welling up in their eyes, the two shop owners hugged each other and wept bitterly.
"Why is it that they get away with robbing people, but we brothers run into such competitors on our first time doing this?"
"Father, Mother, your unfilial son has not only failed to open the shop this year, but all the treasures in the shop have been sold out."
......
The two brothers hugged each other and cried for a long time, but they never heard the voices of the three fellow disciples again.
The two blinked their swollen eyes, and when they turned around again, Sheng Ning and the other two were nowhere to be seen in the shop.
He realized he had actually been robbed.
A deafening wail erupted from inside the shop where the barrier had been removed at the entrance.
On the street, Lu Qing'an looked down at his junior sister, his eyes filled with confusion, "Why did you leave them spirit stones, junior sister?"
Sheng Ning and the others had already left while the two shop owners were hugging and crying.
Before leaving, Sheng Ning tossed a mustard seed bag containing several thousand spirit stones onto the counter.
"Those two looked fierce and menacing; they were clearly not good people."
Sheng Ning walked between his two senior brothers and smiled when he heard this, "There are two paintings hanging on the wall inside the shop."
They were a man and a woman, with rugged features, who were clearly the parents of two brothers.
Moreover, this was a small shop selling treasures, yet it exuded a sense of shabbiness. The two brothers only dared to rob money, not women...
Sheng Ning looked his second senior brother up and down and said, "If they were really robbers, they wouldn't be in such a hurry."
Even though most of their faces were covered by beards, the tension in their eyes betrayed them as they yelled for money.
"Even if the deal falls through, we can still be on good terms. Who knows, maybe we'll encounter danger in the Northern Secret Realm someday and be rescued by those two brothers."
Her words silenced Lu Qing'an and the other person.
After a long while, Lu Jingshen let out a soft sigh, "Junior Sister is not only thoughtful, but she has also considered the future. We senior brothers still have a lot to learn from you."
Sheng Ning shrugged upon hearing this, "What if I guessed wrong this time? The way you senior brothers are now is fine, you don't need to follow my example."
After all, her behavior would have been criticized as being too saintly in her past life.
I walked around the streets but couldn't find anything fun.
Sheng Ning even asked someone what was interesting about the Northern Region, but the other person's answer made even this seasoned veteran blush.
"Go to Paradise City! It's the most fun place in the Northern Region, a place that will make you feel like you're in heaven."
Elysium is a city adjacent to their current town.
Those who go there are mostly vagrants, including not only men but also women, and even demon cultivators, evil cultivators, and monster cultivators.
In the Six Realms, besides those who are dedicated to cultivating the Dao, there are also those who crave pleasure, and the City of Bliss is the best place for them.
To sum it up in Sheng Ning's words, it was a one-stop service for eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling.
After thanking the man, the three siblings returned to the Qi family, looking somewhat disheveled.
As soon as the three arrived at the Qi family's gate, they saw a person dressed in a dark blue robe standing at the door, seemingly waiting for someone.
As they approached, the man greeted them with a smile, "Did you three have a good time?"
So they were waiting for them.
Sheng Ning had just woken up and had not seen anyone from the Qi family.
The Lu brothers recognized the person in front of them.
The two brothers clasped their hands in a fist salute and said, "Steward Zhou."
The man called Butler Zhou chuckled, looked up at Sheng Ning, whose face was rosy, and said, "It's good that you're awake, little friend."
"The young master specifically instructed me to wait here for these three distinguished guests. Please."
Qi Wenyao had heard that Sheng Ning had woken up early in the morning.
Unfortunately, the people he sent arrived too late; by then, Sheng Ning had already gone out to the street with his two senior brothers.
Now that the three of them have returned, Steward Zhou immediately led them to the courtyard where Qi Wenyao lived.
Unlike the icy and snowy outside, Qi Wenyao, as the eldest son of the Qi family, lived in a courtyard filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, a scene full of springtime charm.
As soon as Sheng Ning and the other two stepped into the courtyard, they felt that the temperature inside was different from that outside.
The Qi family must have used some kind of formation to keep the temperature here as warm as spring.
The butler led the three through a bamboo grove, and then stopped in front of the only bamboo house in the grove.
"The three of you, the young master and your fellow disciples are also inside. Please go in directly."
"Speak," the butler said, turning and leaving.
Sheng Ning and the other two looked at the bamboo house in front of them. Before they could knock or push the door open, the bamboo house door slowly opened.
The owner inside knew that a guest had arrived.
A crane made of bamboo leaves appeared in front of Sheng Ning and the other two without them noticing. Lu Qing'an glanced at the crane, and then the three of them exchanged a look before entering the bamboo house together and following the crane up to the second floor.
"Senior Brother."
As soon as she went upstairs, Sheng Ning saw Su Daiyuan playing chess with Qi Wenyao.
The latter looked up, a gentle smile on his face.
He raised his hand to make a shushing gesture and said softly, "Fellow Daoist Su is currently solving a game of chess. Please make yourselves at home."
Sheng Ning saw that her senior brother had a furrowed brow.
Instead of following Qi Wenyao's suggestion, she stepped forward to the chessboard.
Yu appeared behind her without her noticing and said, "Junior Sister, you know chess?"
Sheng Ning neither shook her head nor nodded, "I know a little."
In her past life, she was too unconventional, always hiding in her room alone to read books and do practice problems, and she didn't even have any friends.
Her parents were worried that she might have personality problems, so they enrolled her in a Go class.
As a result, because of her exceptional ability to apply what she learned to new situations, she quickly became an unparalleled prodigy in the training class.
From the nation's top chess players to the elderly men strolling in the park, few can rival her.
Upon hearing that his junior sister knew chess, Yu Ye's face immediately lit up with excitement. "That's great, junior sister! Quickly break this broken game!"
"Damn it, we've been stuck here for almost half a month, we can't go anywhere, I'm so bored."
At first, Yu Ye's words were fine, but when Sheng Ning and the other two heard him say that he had been trapped in the bamboo forest for half a month, they immediately frowned and looked at him.
"Half a month?"
"How could we possibly stay for half a month? We just got ashore and arrived at the Qi family's place."
"Yu Ye, are you stupid?"
