Chapter 39
"Xia Mo, go over there and play by yourself for a while." Yu Tai walked over.
The panda was stunned for two seconds. Who was he calling?
Looking at its silly look, Yu Tai said, "This is the new name I just gave you."
Dadi: “.......” I’ve never seen anything like this before.
The panda, who was suddenly given the name 'Xia Mo', which carries a sense of destiny, walked away without reacting.
Zhang Xiaoxiao teased it with food.
Looking away, Yu Tai sat down opposite the earth.
Dadi's smile remained unchanged: "What do you want to ask me, fellow Daoist?"
Since Yu Tai sent the monster and his junior sister away, he must have something he wanted to ask him alone.
Before coming, Yu Tai knew that there was a wandering cultivator in the Beast Taming Sect who had traveled through the three realms, and later chose to settle down in the Beast Taming Sect for some unknown reason.
She came today, saying that she was here to return the lightning rod, but her real purpose was this casual cultivator.
"I want to ask you something." She used a respectful title.
Dadi's expression remained unchanged as he nodded generously, "You say."
"Do you know the high-level demon-repelling beads?" She stared at him intently as she said this.
High-level demon-repelling beads, anything related to the "demon" can't help but make people think deeply.
But he remained calm and said bluntly, "There are no treasures of this rank in the Middle Realm. If you want to find one, you can only go to the Upper Realm."
This was the second time Yu Tai heard the word "upper realm" since Shu Li last time.
"I understand." She nodded.
Seeing that the conversation was over, Dadi stood up and walked towards Zhang Xiaoxiao.
But the moment he stood up, his consciousness suddenly became a little dazed, and the memory in his mind was distorted for a moment.
When he came to his senses again, the conversation with Yu Tai in his memory had changed from "High-level Demon-Repelling Beads" to "How to maintain monster fur."
This is also the reason why Yu Tai dared to ask for the high-level demon-repelling beads openly.
As a demon cultivator, he naturally knows some means to deceive people.
What's more, the cultivation level of this casual cultivator is not very high, so it is easy for Yu Tai to take advantage of him.
"It's getting late, so we'll say goodbye." Yu Tai walked over and said to Zhang Xiaoxiao.
When Zhang Xiaoxiao heard that Yu Tai was leaving, he looked a little lost.
I originally wanted to call my senior brothers and sisters, but now I think that my benefactor likes quietness, so I'll just forget it if it might disturb her.
"I'll take you out." She forced a smile.
Yu Tai nodded and didn't refuse: "Thank you."
After returning to Qingshan Sword Sect from the Beast Taming Sect, Yu Tai went straight back to his cave.
Feeling that there was no sign of destruction or invasion on the magic circle, Yu Tai walked in with confidence.
On the way back, I passed by a monks' market and accidentally delayed myself for a while.
Entering Shu Li's courtyard, Yu Tai paused.
The person who had been locked up by himself for a whole day was now sitting in the yard, tilting his head to look at the tree with withered branches and leaves beside him. From time to time, the wind blew the withered yellow leaves, and the atmosphere was inexplicably sad.
Yu Tai: "......"
Hearing footsteps, Shu Li turned around and gave Yu Tai a gentle smile: "You're back."
There was no trace of gloom on his face, as if he always kept loneliness to himself, but he always smiled at Yu Tai.
System: [Shu Li's love~ is like autumn leaves that can't wait for flowers to bloom~~]
Yu Tai pursed her lips and said to Shu Li, "Senior Brother, I brought you a gift."
Shu Li's smile remained unchanged, with just the right amount of curiosity in her eyes: "Hmm?"
Seeing him like this, Yu Tai reached out and pinched his face hard, saying coldly, "Why are you so angry?"
Xia Mo and the system were both stunned.
Isn't Shu Li acting like nothing happened?
Hearing Yu Tai's words, Shu Li, whose cheek was pinched with an obvious red mark, was stunned for a moment.
Then the smile on his lips faded obviously, and he lowered his eyes and didn't look at Yu Tai.
Seeing that this person had finally stopped pretending, Yu Tai softened her tone and said, "There's a reason why I'm not taking you out today. Don't be angry."
System: [...You look like that scumbag husband who went out to pick up girls all day, then came home to cheat on someone else's wife and was exhausted from a long day of work.]
Shu Li didn't reply, and her long and thick eyelashes trembled.
Seeing this, Yu Tai squatted down and took out a small gadget she had bought at the market from her Qiankun bag and stuffed it into Shu Li's hand: "Here, I bought it specially for you, brother. I thought it suited you very well the first time I saw it."
Shu Li opened his hand, and in his hand was an ordinary stone.
Yu Tai injected a little spiritual energy into the stone.
Then a pure white lotus emerged from it, its white petals swaying in the wind, and paired with Shu Li's face, it was so harmonious.
Yu Tai thought, it really suits him.
Shu Li looked at the white lotus in his hand with a dull expression, showing no emotion, but Yu Tai inexplicably felt that he might have calmed down.
"I don't have any spiritual energy." He suddenly said, his voice flat.
It was a nonsensical sentence, but Yu Tai knew what he meant.
"Whenever you want to see it, feel free to come to me." If I hadn't found the high-level demon-repelling beads by then.
When Shu Li heard this, the implication became—
'I'll always be by your side'
The white lotus retracted its petals and shrank back into the ordinary little stone.
Shu Li put it away and stood up: "I made fish."
Yu Tai and Xia Mo's eyes lit up at the same time.
Before turning to go into the kitchen, Yu Tai suddenly called him.
"Shu Li."
"I'll go to the upper realm to help you find the sword."
Shu Li came back, and her expression didn't seem that surprised: "Yeah, okay."
Although he said so, to be honest, Yu Tai was still confused about how to go to the upper realm.
Some cultivators in the upper and middle realms have never been there in their entire lives.
After all, it is a paradise where outsiders are expressly forbidden.
Looking at the plate of mouth-watering fish on the wooden table, Yu Tai swallowed.
Tsk, what should I do? Even if I find a high-level demon-repelling bead, I don’t want to let it go.
Who can bear this?
Looking at Yu Tai who was enjoying her meal with Xia Mo, Shu Li poured a cup of tea and placed it next to Yu Tai.
She likes to drink while eating. This habit is actually bad for her health, but it has not been corrected over time. So Shu Li got used to pouring her tea while she was eating.
"If you go to the upper realm, there will be an opportunity soon."
Yu Tai stopped what she was doing.
"A fighting tournament?"
