"If the legend is true, then the Heart of the Immortal belongs to your ancestor's master. He's really unethical. If he wanted to get it out, he could have just given you a heads-up. Instead, he's making such a fuss. He's not trying to get it out; he's trying to kill you."
Ji Fengyao casually complained, watching her sea of consciousness gradually rise and fall because of the arrival of Qian Youying's soul.
"It's because my cultivation is too weak. If my cultivation were higher, I wouldn't be in such a sorry state." Qian Youying didn't utter a single complaint and sincerely defended the Immortal Heart: "Senior Immortal probably never imagined that our lineage would decline to this extent."
Yes, she has a kind heart and is definitely one of her people.
Ji Fengyao thought to herself with satisfaction, deciding to properly nurture Qian Youying.
He is intelligent, composed, has sound values, and is a good person; he is capable of great things.
Ji Fengyao decided to go to the He family's mine again. The Immortal Heart had made such a big fuss that cultivators who were far away might not have noticed, but it was impossible for the mining cultivators in the He family's mine to have been completely unaware.
She had already suspected that the Dongdan family was after the Immortal's Heart, and she had to be careful that they didn't secretly take it away.
She went out to gather people to check on the mine, but no one answered when she called out to everyone living in the courtyard.
Ji Fengyao: "..."
What, have these people learned to not work during their rest time?
Or perhaps they feel they have enough resources at their disposal, and have become arrogant and want to rebel?
After she kicked open each room one by one, she was both angry and amused:
The people living in this courtyard had all shut down their hearing, and some had even shut down all five senses and six consciousnesses!
"You're all like radish stakes, waiting for someone to chop you up and put you in the pot!" The little bandit suddenly roared with divine power, waking everyone from their absolutely silent personal worlds.
Everyone then hurriedly restored their hearing or other senses and quickly came out to gather in the courtyard.
"Come on, tell me, what are you trying to do by collectively shutting down your hearing or all five senses? Do you think that because I've set up a formation in this courtyard, you don't need to be careful and can just throw your vigilance into the river to feed the fish?"
"So, the reason I recruited you all back was to go to great lengths to protect you?"
Everyone lowered their heads after being spoken to.
They then realized that they had indeed been too complacent lately, to the point that they had lost even the most basic vigilance.
In the past, they would never have dared to be so audacious as to shut down their five senses and six consciousnesses.
"It's all because of Qian Youying. It's all his fault for shamelessly climbing on your body, Miss... We also felt too ashamed, so we..." Bai Yusu muttered aggrievedly.
"You saw someone climb into my bed, but just because you know the person, you all turned a deaf ear and stood there like wooden stakes, ignoring everything," Ji Fengyao's smile turned cold, and her gaze towards Bai Yusu also turned cold.
She originally thought that Bai Yusu was just used to being a rich young lady and couldn't change some of her habits in a short time.
But now she realizes that she made a mistake; that's not how you lead subordinates.
If it works, it works; if it doesn't, it doesn't.
The people around Shang Xiye were those who survived years of battles and life-or-death trials.
As someone in a position of power, she was far too kind.
"Why did I specifically arrange for you siblings to live near me? What makes you think that just because you have money and can get into my bed, I'll accept you?"
