Not only were they envious, but even the Grand Elder was planning to tell the family head everything afterward so he could get some benefits.
Tianning is just a little girl with no cultivation; how could she possibly need such a fine thing...
With the dragon elders present, the group of people, each with their own thoughts, did not reveal their intentions. In any case, they were already at the Wen family's house, so there was no rush.
A lamb that cannot guard its treasure will sooner or later be devoured by wolves.
After the gifts were delivered, the dragon elders all left. The Grand Elder exchanged pleasantries and went to see the guests off, with Long Ye and Long Han naturally following behind. They couldn't understand why the Dragon King valued a girl so much. The remaining two wouldn't be foolish enough to stay with Tian Ning any longer.
The group of people left just like that, leaving Tianning all alone in the crowded courtyard.
I put away the good stuff I just got; I never expected the dragons to be so generous.
Looking at the azure blue ripples in her hand, the dragon egg, as beautiful as ocean waves, shone like a jewel in the sunlight. Tian Ning pondered, "This is because the dragon ancestor failed to form a contract with me, so I can take good care of the baby."
"Chirp chirp, do you want to be a mother and hatch it?" It should be similar to a mother hen sitting in her roost.
The sparrow on the roof, only a quarter the size of a dragon egg, tilted its head, its beady eyes filled with confusion, unable to comprehend this cross-species mother-child bond.
never mind.
Water and fire are inherently incompatible. If Chiu Chiu were to hatch, she and Little White would probably be able to eat their fill with bowls and chopsticks...
Tianning took out the essential healing pills for injuries from his mustard seed bag, grabbed a handful like candy and put them in his mouth, then bit his finger and dripped blood onto the dragon egg.
The blood that fell on the dragon egg shone with a light blue light, and the ripples spread out like waves that had been injected with life, resembling a sparkling sea surface, so beautiful that one could not look away.
The contract must have been successful.
As for what happens next, it's up to the little chicks to hatch from their eggs on their own.
Tianning put the dragon egg into her box and then ignored it, busying herself with tidying up the house. She couldn't stay at the Wen family's house any longer; she'd be a fool to wait for those troublemakers to come knocking.
The maids, who were still looking forward to the sequel to the story, came to the courtyard and were shocked by the chaotic scene inside. The door of the sixth young lady's room had been torn down, and it looked like it had been ransacked by bandits. The cozy room that the sixth young lady had decorated was gone, and the room was completely empty!
"Sixth Miss Six..."
Was it burgled?
Fortunately, the person was unharmed and still standing there.
Before they could even think about how the Wen family could have been robbed, they heard the unperturbed Sixth Miss say, "I'm going to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. You don't need to come here anymore."
The maids knew about this, but they didn't expect the Sixth Miss to leave so quickly. They felt sorry for her and wanted to persuade her to stay, but they knew the difference between mistress and servant, and they hadn't been by the Sixth Miss's side for long, so they didn't know how to speak for a moment.
Among them, Mo Ran was the most innocent and didn't think too much. Reluctantly, she tried to persuade her to stay: "Sixth Miss, what will happen to 'The Marquis's Adopted Daughter Runs Away with a Baby: Forced to Escape Their Compulsory Keeping' if you leave! This servant hasn't even read the ending yet, can't you stay a little longer... And what about all those storybooks in your room..."
It's such a pity to think about it.
"If you like them, you can borrow them. I have many more storybooks here. Wait, I'll find them for you." Tianning generously took out a bunch of storybooks from the box and distributed them to the maids.
Holding the heavy storybook in their hands, the maids' upturned lips never stopped curving upwards.
Miss Six is such a kind person!
Cuizhu was also happy. They always did the same boring work day after day in this big mansion. Their occasional fun was listening to the old women gossiping together. It was rare to come across such an interesting storybook. No one expected that the Sixth Miss would be willing to lend it to them.
I only glanced at the storybooks the Sixth Miss gave me: "The Boss Brother Only Pampers the Soft and Sweet Fake Sister", "Top-Tier Shura Field: Five Brothers Won't Let Me Go", "The Fake Princess Became the Darling of the Group"...
Green Bamboo: ? ? ?
If she weren't certain that the Sixth Miss was unaware of her suspicions about the Fourth Young Master and the Fifth Miss, Cuizhu would have almost thought that Tianning was doing it on purpose!
The books given to the other maids were all about sibling relationships...
Is it really just a coincidence?
With these doubts in mind, the maids took the storybooks back to read. They also had close female friends who, finding it novel, gathered together to read them. Despite the melodramatic, illogical, and even somewhat lewd stories—deserving of being called 'vulgar'—they seemed to possess a kind of magic, making it impossible to stop reading once started!
The trend of reading storybooks quickly spread among the servants of the Wenren Mansion. From the older, rough-working old women who would read them while cursing "shameless little hussy," to the young maids who would blush and secretly read them in bed at night, only to wake up to find it was already dawn... Even the servants would curiously ask the maids to borrow them to read.
As for Tianning? She had already taken her newly acquired treasure to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
Before they parted, her senior brother gave her a token for his personal disciple, which allowed her to enter and leave the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
Tianning asked a passing disciple for directions to Sword Protection Mountain. The disciple looked at her strangely but still pointed in the right direction.
The location of the Sword Protection Mountain is remote; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it's in a corner of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. Tian Ning walked a long way to get there. As she climbed the mountain, she saw a boy in a pale yellow robe sitting on the steps from afar.
"Senior Brother!"
Fu Hongming heard someone calling him and looked in the direction of the voice to see his junior sister who had just started her training.
"Junior Sister!" He saw Tian Ning carrying a large box, with a sparrow and a white cat beside her, and quickly stepped forward to help.
