Wei Xiaolong didn't sense anyone around him, but he always believed in Xiao Yinyue's judgment.
Normally, with his ninth-level cultivation in the Qi Refining Stage, he would be able to sense the aura of someone within a radius of two to three hundred meters, but only if the other person's cultivation level is lower than his.
The disciples from the Law Hall who came with them just now are obviously higher in cultivation than him, and they are also good at hiding.
As a person who had just entered the Qi refining stage, Xiao Yinyue was naturally unable to sense whether there was anyone around her.
When the man walked out of the cave, Xiao Yinyue really couldn't sense it, but she had a guess in her mind that the matter would not be passed so easily, so she kept an eye on it and wanted to sense it.
When she thought this way, the jade pendant issued a warning and formed a vague feeling in her brain, knowing that the man was still on the side of the waterfall outside the cave, listening to the conversation of several people in the stone house through her consciousness.
Therefore, Xiao Yinyue stopped Wei Xiaoxue from speaking in time.
Based on her understanding of Wei Xiaoxue, she would definitely be tempted to say inappropriate things after he suddenly relaxed.
Although Xiao Yinyue could sense the presence of the person outside, it was very vague. Although the jade pendant could amplify her perception, after all, her own cultivation level was too low, so the effect was not very good.
When Wei Xiaoxue knew that the person was still there and felt at a loss, she was pulled to her feet by Xiao Yinyue to practice the gale force stick technique.
Wei Xiaolong also stood up, went to get two sticks, and handed them to Xiao Yinyue and Wei Xiaoxue respectively, and the two started sparring in the stone house.
The two were sparring, with Wei Xiaolong giving pointers from time to time, which seemed quite lively.
The people outside stayed for about a quarter of an hour before finally flying away.
Xiao Yinyue sensed that the man had left, but she continued to practice with Wei Xiaoxue for a while before stopping, and then said to Wei Xiaolong: "Brother Xiaolong, why don't you go catch two fish and bring us back?" Let’s drink the fish stew!”
Wei Xiaolong responded and left. When he got outside, he observed the surrounding environment without leaving any trace. After finding that the person was indeed gone, he went to catch fish in the pool below.
After the fish was stewed, Xiao Yinyue gave Fang Wenbo a bowl and told him what happened today.
When the three of them were having lunch, Xiao Yinyue solemnly warned:
"We have dealt with it today, but we cannot take it lightly. Next, after one round of investigation, if there is still no discovery, there may be another round of investigation."
Wei Xiaoxue said with a bitter face: "Huh? You're still here. I was so scared that I almost collapsed!"
Xiao Yinyue smiled and said: "People's psychological quality is trained little by little. You will definitely be nervous the first time, but after countless times, you will slowly become stronger."
Wei Xiaoxue wondered: "But isn't this your first time experiencing it too? Why aren't you scared at all?"
Xiao Yinyue thought for a while and replied: "If you want others to believe what you say, you must first believe it yourself. You must tell yourself unswervingly that what you say is true. Of course, the premise is that it is White lie."
Wei Xiaoxue asked in confusion: "Are lies still good and evil?"
Xiao Yinyue nodded and said: "Of course, if this lie is to save a good person or one's relatives, then it should be considered well-intentioned. If it is just for self-interest and harms the interests of many people, then it is malicious. .”
Seeing that Wei Xiaoxue seemed to understand but not understand, Xiao Yinyue pondered for a while and then asked:
"If I'm in danger and you know where I am, and someone presses you about my whereabouts and wants to harm me, what will you do?"
Wei Xiaoxue replied without hesitation: "Of course you can't even say that even if you kill me!"
Xiao Yinyue said with a smile: "Now you understand, we live in Senior Brother Fang's stone house, so we owe him a favor. He risked his life just to rescue the Senior Brother whom he admired, such a most loving and righteous person. , isn’t it worth our saving? The lies we tell to save him are called white lies.”
Wei Xiaoxue replied somewhat confusedly: "I seem to understand."
While talking, the three of them had finished eating. Xiao Yinyue stood up and said: "Don't think about it in a hurry. After you experience more things, you will slowly understand that life can teach you a lot. Something.”
Wei Xiaolong saw that she wanted to go back to Seven Star Academy, so he said: "You go to the academy, I won't go. I guess there will be people coming to our place in the next two days."
Xiao Yinyue nodded and said, "That's fine. Brother Xiaolong lives here. I'll go change the healing elixir for Brother Fang."
After saying that, he pulled Wei Xiaoxue out.
After class, Xiao Yinyue went straight to the alchemy workshop.
The alchemy workshop is located at the foot of Tianji Peak. It is like a small market. Some people sell elixirs, some sell medicinal materials, some sell various materials, and some sell weapons. In addition to the alchemy workshop opened by the alchemy hall, there are also alchemy shops. A ware workshop opened by the ware hall.
Those who come here to trade are all disciples of our sect. Some are willing to trade in the alchemy and utensil workshops, while others want to trade privately. Therefore, a free trading market will be formed outside.
Xiao Yinyue did not enter the alchemy shop, but walked around casually outside, looking at the various items placed on the stalls.
After walking around for a while, she found that most of the items looked quite ordinary. However, some medicinal materials felt very fresh, and they were probably collected by herself.
As I was walking, I suddenly saw a group of acquaintances approaching. They turned out to be children of the Xia family, and Xia Ziyan was among them.
She and the Xia family were enemies, so she turned around to look at the items on the stall, intending to avoid a head-on encounter to avoid embarrassment.
However, with her appearance and temperament, even if she is in a crowd, she can still be seen at a glance and cannot be hidden.
When a group of people passed behind Xiao Yinyue, Xia Ziyan stopped and said hello:
"Junior Sister Xiao, hello, are you here to buy some elixirs?"
Xiao Yinyue knew she couldn't hide, so she turned around and replied, "Hello, Senior Brother Xia, I just wanted to take a look."
Before Xia Ziyan could answer, Xia Ziyan said, "Then you should take a closer look. Anyway, you don't need to spend the spirit stone to take a look."
For some reason, when she saw Xiao Yinyue, she couldn't control her emotions. In her opinion, what was the use of being beautiful for a country girl? Without spiritual stones, one cannot afford elixirs and weapons.
Seeing that she didn't change her attitude, Xiao Yinyue asked calmly: "Have you made a breakthrough?"
Xia Ziyan couldn't help being silent for a while. She had already felt the existence of Qi, but she was always a little bit behind it. She could not successfully introduce Qi into her body. She had taken a lot of low-grade Qi-inducing pills, and three of the middle-grade ones. It took a lot, but the result was still a little bit worse.
This was the pain in her heart. She knew that Xiao Yinyue had deliberately poked her at the painful spot, so she took a gentle breath, adjusted her emotions, and then answered:
"I haven't made a breakthrough, but you, the chief disciple of the handyman, Senior Sister Xiao, haven't made a breakthrough either? You have low-grade five spiritual roots and can't afford pills. I think it will be difficult for you to introduce Qi into your body in this life!"
Xiao Yinyue replied with a sad look on her face: "Hey, I'm not like you, who has nothing to do all day long and is so leisurely. When I have time to practice, I have to give lectures to you, go to the alchemy hall to be an alchemist, and go to the foreign affairs hall to communicate with guests. I’m really too busy communicating, and I don’t even have time to practice.”
These words made Xia Ziyan even more uncomfortable, because these were exactly what she wanted to pursue most. She wanted to be a decent chief disciple, and she also wanted to represent the sect and communicate with other disciples. She wanted to be a popular figure in the sect. A glorious person.
However, so far, she has been nothing. She is just an ordinary handyman. She has used a lot of elixirs, but she can only feel the energy of Qi, but she can never really draw Qi into her body.
But Xiao Yinyue got it without any effort. Because she was beautiful, she became the chief disciple of the handyman. She wrote a poem casually and became a celebrity in the sect. What she couldn't get was Xiao Yinyue. Yinyue already had it, and she deliberately looked reluctant.
Isn't this just to piss her off? The key is that even if you are angry, there is still nothing you can do.
She also knew that her inability to draw Qi into her body was mainly due to a mental problem, but even though she knew the problem, she still couldn't adjust it.
She was heartbroken to be rubbed salt into the wound, but she couldn't respond. She could only say with some words: "No matter how prosperous you are now, when everyone can draw Qi into your body, I don't see how you can have the dignity to do this." The chief disciple of the handyman."
Before Xiao Yinyue could answer, she heard Li Qingyun's voice shouting from behind:
"Junior sister Xiao, it turns out you are here. I have been wandering around the sect for a long time in order to find you."
Xiao Yinyue asked in confusion: "I wonder what Senior Brother Li wants from me?"
Li Qingyun hurriedly came to her and said slightly excitedly: "Didn't I hear that you have the best Qi-entraining pill, so I came to you to buy it. The old rule is equal exchange, how about it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone onlookers took a deep breath.
The ultimate Qi-inducing pill? This is really too precious. For ordinary disciples, maybe even if they encounter it, they will just sigh and sigh that they can't afford it. But for people from the four major families and the royal family, they can buy whatever is available. Started.
Especially in a situation like Xia Ziyan's, where there was only a tiny bit left to draw Qi into her body. If there were top-quality Qi-drawing pills, she only needed one, and she would have a 99% chance of breaking through.
Therefore, she was particularly excited because she had no shortage of spiritual stones!
Xiao Yinyue was obviously here to sell the best Qi-inducing pills, but she still pretended to be extremely reluctant and replied: "Senior Brother Li, you are making things difficult for me. I know you are not short of spiritual stones, but I am also It needs to be used!”
Li Qingyun said eagerly: "I know you need it too, but I heard that what you got was a small bottle with three pills in total. You and your sister each have one pill, isn't there one left? I'm willing to spend more I can buy it at any price."
Xiao Yinyue still replied in embarrassment: "My qualifications are too low, I'm afraid one won't be enough!"
Li Qingyun pondered for a moment, then stretched out three fingers and said: "If you sell it to the Danfang, you can only buy 50,000 low-grade spiritual stones. If you trade it freely, the maximum is 200,000. I will give you 300,000. How about it?"
