2353: Very Good

Very Good

She could not offend the two deities, but she could still teach the lowly person without a bloodline totem a lesson!

But before she reached the door, she suddenly detected something and paused in her tracks. Then, the air before her vibrated.

A tall and slim figure slowly appeared.

She was first dazed. Then, she recognized the person, and surprise flashed across her eyes. "Yan—"

"Where are you going?" A cold voice sounded.

Shu Jing was instantly dazed and instinctively said, "I-I want to go out for a while…"

"You're not going to the medicinal mountain."

"Well…"

The other party said it confidently.

Shu Jing instinctively felt that something was amiss, so her gaze flickered as she said, "Where can I go if not the medicinal mountain?"

The appearance and figure of the man opposite her were hidden behind the ripples in the air, so she could not see him clearly. However, Shu Jing could still feel a pair of sharp and cold eyes staring at her tightly.

Her entire body tensed up.

After a while, the other party said, "That's great."

Shu Jing knitted her brows. "What do you mean…?"

"I mean that for this period of time, you better not go anywhere else other than the medicinal mountain and Fantasy Divine Hall, nor get into any more trouble."

Shu Jing's heart skipped a beat. Why… does this sound weird? What does he mean by not getting into any more trouble? He makes it sound as if I have been causing trouble the whole time?

Shu Jing felt uncomfortable but still forced a smile. "I understand."

Then, that person turned around and wanted to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Shu Jing hurriedly called him.

That person half-turned around. "Is there anything else?"

Shu Jing pressed her lips against each other and asked rather nervously, "Nothing much. I just haven't seen you in a long while. I just wanted to ask… how are you doing recently?"

When she asked this, Shu Jing's face started to burn slightly. This sounds rather sudden…

"I've been… great recently." Unexpectedly, that person gave an answer.

Shu Jing was dazed.

In the past, he wouldn't say more than a word, but this time, he actually—

"Then…" Shu Jing was about to continue when the air shook, and the person left.

Seeing the empty air before her, Shu Jing was dazed for a while. Thinking that he actually answered her previous question, she felt happiness overflowing in her heart.

Thinking for a while, Shu Jing gradually calmed the overwhelming emotions in her heart and started to think about what he previously said. Don't cause more trouble, and I can only stay on the medicinal mountain and in Fantasy Divine Hall? He suddenly came here to tell me this? Could it be… he is warning me not to act recklessly?

Shu Jing was conflicted.

On the one hand, she wanted to find Xiao Ba to take revenge for the slap that day.

On the other hand, the person's sudden arrival confused her.

After much thinking, she finally decided to suppress her thoughts and planned to put Xiao Ba's matter aside first. That person must have a deeper meaning for suddenly coming and saying that. No matter which aspect I think about it from, I should silently observe the changes.

Thinking of this, she still changed her direction.

…

The yard was completely silent.

Suddenly, explosions could be heard from a room.

Bam!

This sound shocked Hua Shuangshuang so much that he directly pushed open the door and entered. "What happened? What happened? What's going on?"

Upon smelling that scorched smell, he immediately yelled, "Xiao Ba! Xiao Ba, did you cause trouble again!?"

Hearing Hua Shuangshuang say this, Xiao Ba—who just ran out of the room—felt indignant instantly. "Second Brother, I've been busy in the room the whole time! When did you see me cause trouble?!"

She held the door and messily stomped her pair of shoes. Her hand still had a hint of flirtatious red.

Xiao Ba was also very angry. Originally, she was painting her nails when the explosion suddenly sounded!

It shocked her to the point her hand trembled, and she poured the flower dew concoction that she made with much difficulty! Who could she find reason with?

Hua Shuangshuang covered his face. "Who could it be if it's not you?!"

"Ahem… Ahem… I-it's me! A door suddenly opened from the side, and thick black fumes floated out. A disheveled figure ran out while coughing.

Xiao Ba's pretty eyes were overflowing with harshness. "JIAN. FENG. CHI! Return me my flower dew concoction!"

Jian Fengchi came to the yard with much difficulty. He plopped himself on the stone chair and caught his breath. "W-wait for me to… recover…"

Hua Shuangshuang glanced at him. "Jian Fengchi, are you producing pills or setting a fire?"

The whole fire was going to burn!

Jian Fengchi's face had black and gray streaks. His usual good looks disappeared without a trace.

"Ahem… I-I—when I was practicing pill refining… A-anxious… It was going to succeed!"

Just a little more, just a little more!

"Next time—I'll definitely succeed next time!"

"There's still a next time?" Xiao Ba was so angry that she grinded her teeth.

This was the scene Yan Qing saw when he came back.

He rapidly scanned around and understood what happened. When his gaze landed on Xiao Ba, he furrowed his sharp brows slightly.

Xiao Ba was worrying about being unable to take action in her state. When she saw Yan Qing, she immediately perked up. "Brother Yan Qing, quickly drag Jian Fengchi out! Before he succeeds in producing a Supreme Physician-level pill, he's not allowed to come back!"

Jian Fengchi felt that it was amiss and immediately turned around to look at Yan Qing. "Brother Yan Qing! Don't listen to her!"

Yan Qing stopped in his tracks.

Xiao Ba widened her eyes. "Jian Fengchi! You're shameless!"

Jian Fengchi smiled brightly. "Didn't you just call him brother? I know how to do that too!"1

"Ew!" Xiao Ba was so angry that she picked up her shoe and threw it over.

Even though Jian Fengchi failed in producing his pill, he still had his fast reflexes. He leaned back and dodged it.

Then, that shoe flew toward Yan Qing.

Slap!

A sound was heard.

Yan Qing raised his head and caught the shoe expressionlessly.

The yard instantly fell silent.
