Qiu Zhihe's face showed the "panic" of the deacon disciples who suddenly saw the peak master, and he quickly stood up and saluted respectfully:
"I've met the Peak Master, why are you here?"
Tantai Mingyue had a gentle expression and a soft voice: "Ruomei, you have just become an inner disciple, are there any difficulties?"
Qiu Zhihe was "flattered" and said: "Thank you Peak Master for your concern. I have become an inner disciple not long after I started. I am really scared. Fortunately, my senior sisters and brothers are taking good care of me, so there is no difficulty."
"Yeah?"
Tantai Mingyue walked to the table and sat down with a smile on her face. Qiu Zhihe immediately poured her a glass of water, showing the respect of a disciple.
Tantai Mingyue kept looking at her, her eyes flashing, not missing the slightest detail.
Qiu Zhihe was respectful and shy throughout the whole process, and a little clumsy when dealing with others, just like Ruomei usually showed, without any flaws.
"Feng, Peak Master, please have tea."
"Um."
Qiu Zhihe poured the tea and stood by her side with her hands hanging down. Tantai Mingyue picked up the teacup, took a sip and said nothing.
In the quiet room, there are two women, one is respectful and shy, the other is dignified and peaceful, but they both hide their true faces.
After a long silence, Tantai Mingyue finally spoke:
"By the way, Ruomei, I heard from Su Xin that you recently went down the mountain with Lin Qingxi."
"Yes, Senior Sister Lin went down the mountain to do some shopping and asked me to go with her."
Qiu Zhihe bowed his head and answered respectfully.
"oh?"
Tantai Mingyue suddenly said: "I heard that you were not among the people who went down the mountain this time. Was it Lin Qingsi who specifically asked Su Xin to allow her to take you with her?"
Qiu Zhihe lowered his head and said nothing.
Tantai Mingyue held the teacup in her hand, her eyes looking at her for a moment, her spiritual power running secretly in her body, and she was ready to take action.
"What's wrong? Is there any difficulty?"
Qiu Zhihe finally raised his head and said in a timid and soft voice:
"Peak Master, it's me who begged Senior Sister Lin to take me down the mountain."
The sharp look in Tantai Mingyue's eyes flashed away, and she asked with a smile: "Why?"
Qiu Zhihe replied: "I became an inner disciple within a few months of joining. I was afraid of being criticized by my senior brothers and sisters, so I wanted to do something for the sect to prove that the decision of the peak master and the leader was correct."
"That's it."
Tantai Mingyue asked again: "Then why did you come back half a day later than Lin Qingsi and the others?"
Qiu Zhihe said quickly: "Lin Qingsi found that the spiritual essence we purchased was low, so she asked me to go back and buy more. The three senior sisters accompanying us all know this."
Tantai Mingyue nodded. She asked Su Xin to ask about these details before she came. The words of several people traveling with her were exactly the same as what Ruomei said.
There really aren't any flaws.
But it seems to be too perfect, not missing a beat.
There's something strange about being perfect.
"Then I'm leaving. You can rest."
Tantai Mingyue stood up with a smile, Qiu Zhihe saluted:
"Farewell to the Peak Master."
"correct."
Tantai Mingyue took two steps and suddenly turned back: "Ruomei, you don't look good. Is there something wrong with your cultivation?"
Qiu Zhihe was still "shy" and a little grateful: "Thank you Peak Master for caring, I, I'm fine."
Tantai Mingyue took one step forward and was in front of Qiu Zhihe in an instant, with a gentle smile on her face:
"I'm a medical practitioner. Let me show you."
Although she spoke softly, her hand reached out to Qiu Zhihe's wrist without any doubt.
She wanted to explore Ruomei's spiritual field and spiritual roots to see her true cultivation and spiritual root talent.
Everyone in Hongzhou Continent knows that Xia Qinglian, the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect, has a talent that is astonishing throughout the ages. She is the purest innate spiritual root.
Even if Ruomei deliberately hides it, Tantai Mingyue has a way to find out her true spiritual root.
Qiu Zhihe's timid little face froze for an instant, and a fierceness was about to burst out in her delicate eyes.
"who?!"
There was suddenly a very slight noise outside. If it were an ordinary disciple, it would have been concealed, but Tantai Mingyue's spiritual sense was keen and he immediately noticed it.
The look he looked at Ruomei also became sharp.
There is indeed something wrong with her!
Tantai Mingyue was extremely alert, several magical instruments vibrated slightly, and she was ready to throw them out at any time.
"Master Tantai Peak, I am He Zhiqiu, a disciple of Huashen Peak. I am here to see Junior Sister Ruo."
At this time, a slightly panicked voice sounded outside the door.
Tantai Mingyue was startled, and looked at Qiu Zhihe, only to see the red clouds flying on the petite face, and the little girl lowered her head shyly.
Tantai Mingyue raised her hand, opened the door, and saw a tall and burly figure standing outside the door, it was He Zhiqiu!
"Senior Brother He?"
Qiu Zhihe also looked at Qin Gengyun, with just the right amount of shock and shyness on her face, but her eyes were full of reproach.
Husband, didn’t I tell you not to come over these days?
Tantai Mingyue has already doubted me. You should stay away from me now. If you come to me late at night like this, they will also doubt you!
This vortex is too big and I don’t want you to get involved.
"It turns out to be Zhiqiu. This is the residence of the female disciples of Danxia Peak. What are you doing sneaking out so late at night?"
Over there, Tantai Mingyue was already looking at Qin Gengyun with suspicion.
Qin Gengyun didn't seem to see the blame and worry in Qiu Zhihe's eyes. He respectfully saluted Tantai Mingyue:
"Master Tantai, I am indeed rude, but I really miss my wife and can't help but want to come and see her."
"Your wife?"
Tantai Mingyue was stunned, and Qin Gengyun continued: "Peace Master, Junior Sister Ruo and I were actually married before joining the Zhenyang Sect. However, the Zhenyang Sect has always had strict rules, and we were worried that we would not be able to enter the sect, so I have been hiding it all this time, please forgive me, Peak Master."
Not only was Tantai Mingyue shocked, but Qiu Zhihe was also stunned.
"Senior Brother He, you, you"
Qin Gengyun strode to her side, took her little hand, and said softly:
"I'm sorry, madam, I just can't bear it anymore. We are married couples. Why can't we say it openly?"
He looked at Qiu Zhihe with gentle but firm eyes.
Madam, we are husband and wife and we have to face everything together. Don’t even think about leaving me.
"Husband."
Qiu Zhihe looked at him blankly, mist rising in her beautiful eyes and her eyes moist.
Husband, why are you so stupid? What I do will hurt you!
At this moment, the couple looked at each other infatuatedly, as if there were a thousand words in their eyes, and in Tantai Mingyue's view, the two of them were so affectionate, and it was obvious that they were really a loving couple.
Suddenly, some images that were deeply hidden in his heart appeared before his eyes.
"Senior brother, are you really willing to marry me?"
"Mingyue, please give birth to the child with peace of mind first. When my senior brother fulfills his ambition, I will definitely marry you."
"Senior brother."
Tantai Mingyue gathered her thoughts and waved away the blurry images in her mind. She looked at Qin Gengyun and Qiu Zhihe holding hands, and frowned slightly:
"You concealed your relationship and sneaked into the Zhenyang Sect. What is your intention?!"
