Chapter 160 - Becoming a Young Emperor (2/2)
At Invincible Sect.
Shen Ying and her companions walked into the rear hall and bumped into Roasted Chicken Gal and Feng Ying. The two of them had arrived the day earlier. Qi Chengyu’s injuries were almost completely healed, and she was no longer just a spirit. She was already good-looking to begin with, but now, dressed in red-robes, she looked exceptionally beautiful. She made Feng Ying, who was beside her, look like a brute.
“Shen Ying!” Once she saw her, Qi Chengyu ran forward and hugged her. She worriedly fired questions at rapid speed, “What took you so long? Did you get into trouble? I was just thinking of going to find you. Did you meet with any difficulties on your way back? Did you get injured? Did anyone bully you? I’ll beat them for you!”
Feng Ying: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
Both of their expressions darkened. Both of them looked at the girls with murderous intent.
Little bastard , both of them thought at the same time.
“Er… I’m alright.” Shen Ying struggled to loosen Qi Chengyu’s grip. She didn’t recall Roasted Chicken Gal being this affectionate before.
“Tower Master Ying!” Lonemoon’s eyes lit up when he spotted Feng Ying. “You must have had a difficult journey. Did you gain anything from the trip?” Quick, come and exchange information. Let’s see what we can get out of the Heavens beyond Heaven. As Lonemoon spoke, he led Feng Ying to the stone table beside them.
“Brother Lonemoon, please call me Feng Ying.” Feng Ying glanced at Qi Chengyu and realised that she was still fussing over Shen Ying. She did not even seem to notice him. Suddenly, he felt bloated with anger. Little Yu no longer loves me, sad…
“It’s a good thing that you’re alright,” Qi Chengyu continued to tug at Shen Ying, scanning her from head to toe. She was acting like Shen Ying’s mother. “Are you tired from the journey? Do you want to rest? Yes, why are you always wearing that grey and dull robe? I can cast spells and summon talismans now – I am much better. Do you want me to make a couple of robes for you? I can make inner garments, outer robes, bottoms and even…” She giggled and lowered her voice, “Bras! What colour do you like?”
“…” Why did Shen Ying feel like she was being fussed over by a weird auntie?
“It’s… it’s alright.” Shen Ying frowned and attempted to change the topic. “Well… I’m really hungry. Let’s cook in the rear hall.”
Qi Chengyu perked up and turned around to open the door. “Alright, let’s go in…”
Just as she was pushing the door open, a growl sounded from inside.
“Be careful!” Yi Qing exclaimed. He had been by Shen Ying’s side the entire time and was now hugging Shen Ying and retreating. “Master, are you alright?”
“I’m fine.” Shen Ying looked ahead and saw that a bunch of long and round things covered the floor. Qi Chengyu had no time to react – she was nearly buried under all of it.
“Little Yu!” Feng Ying flew to her side and helped Roasted Chicken Gal up. She seemed to have stepped on something and tripped. He, too, lost his footing and fell down with a thud.
“What kind of secret weapon is this?” He grimaced as he tried to stand up amidst the rolling things. He picked one of them up. Eh, this looks familiar. Is this… a potato?
How can such ordinary things exist in the immortal realm? Is it the potato spirit?
The few of them looked up and saw that there were not only potatoes all over the ground. There were red potatoes, radish vegetation spirits, garlic and many different types of vegetables. What’s more, they filled the entire house.
Shen Ying had a bad feeling. She turned to face Yi Qing. “Chef, don’t tell me…”you planted these?
Yi Qing’s expression darkened. In a flash, he disappeared into the rear hall. Within three seconds, he emerged, looking even angrier. He nodded at her and said, “Yes!” He had planted these vegetables. He was planning to use them to cook dishes for Master when he returned.
“How many did you pluck?”
“I plucked every last one of them.”
“…”
Shen Ying glanced at the balcony and saw the three dandelions that were particularly eye-catching. Suddenly, she knew who brought all the vegetables here.
