250 Tell Me
Song Qingfeng saw the slyness in Dong Xi’s eyes. He thought that this girl never suffered losses, so he coughed a few times and said, “There’s no need for that. Junior sister, of course you’re innocent. Senior Brother knows that.”
Liang Yan looked at Song Qingfeng and said, “Then tell me about it.”
Liang Yan was poor to begin with. He had been raising a hundred-year-old fruit tree, and now that there were finally fruits, half the fruits went missing?
Dong Xi gave Song Qingfeng a look, and Dong Xi said, “Second Senior Brother, do you think I should tell him about the fruits?”
Song Qingfeng took out a Blazing Flame Fruit and gave it to Liang Yan. Song Qingfeng said, “Senior Brother, let bygones be bygones. Don’t hold on to it.”
Liang Yan looked at Song Qingfeng and then at the fruit in his hand. He laughed and kept the fruit without saying anything.
Of course, Master Lingxu knew about the enmity between the two. Song Qingfeng had liked to play pranks since he was young, and the two had been playing around for a hundred years, so Master Lingxu had gotten used to it.
On the other hand, this youngest disciple was not very old, so there were many things to worry about.
Master Lingxu sighed and said, “Little Xi, talk to your Master. How did you learn the spells of the Central Plains? Did you encounter people from there?”
There was an endless ocean between the Central Plains and where they were, and they did not interfere with each other.
A few thousand years ago, there was a war between them and the Central Plains. In that war, the teleportation gate between the two regions was damaged.
It was also for this reason that the two states had not had any contact for thousands of years.
“No, Master.” Dong Xi shook her head and said, “Do you remember the new disciple trial? I learned it in the palace there.”
Upon hearing this, Master Lingxu, Liang Yan, and Song Qingfeng were all shocked.
Song Qingfeng waved the fan in his hand as if he was looking at a rare species. He said, “Amazing! Junior sister, that Secret Realm was already searched so thoroughly, and you still managed to find this? Is it true?”
“It’s true. If you don’t believe me, I can swear a Heart Demon Oath,” said Dong Xi, biting his lip.
Song Qingfeng closed his fan and gently tapped Dong Xi’s head. He said, “Don’t talk nonsense! Why do you need to resort to the Heart Demon Oath? How can Senior Brother not believe you?”
Master Lingxu said. “The culture of the Central Plains is in that Mystic realm. You actually know their language?”
Dong Xi sighed softly. This was truly inexplicable.
Was he supposed to tell her Master and Senior Brothers that she had gotten full marks for English during the college entrance examination?
Dong Xi lowered her head, her eyes somewhat evasive, and stammered, “This disciple… Disciple… I just copied it and learned it casually.”
Master Lingxu believed her. Everyone encountered different inheritances. Some things were jade slips, and some things were soul fragments. It would make sense if the soul fragments taught them bit by bit.
“Little Xi, this move is very powerful, ” Master Lingxu said seriously. “If you use it, your spiritual Qi will be sucked dry. Without spiritual Qi, you’ll be at the mercy of others. Unless it’s a last resort, you can’t use this move.”
“Yes, this disciple will bear it in mind,” said Dong Xi obediently.
Dong Xi was not sure if it was because her current cultivation level was just enough to use this move, or if every time it surged out, it would consume all her spiritual Qi.
When her cultivation level was higher in the future, she could try a few more times.
Coming out of her Master’s cave, Song Qingfeng looked at Dong Xi with admiration and a trace of envy.
“Little Xi,” Song Qingfeng said. “Your luck is heaven-defying.”
Song Qingfeng’s luck had been pretty good since he started cultivating, but he had never bumped into movement techniques and spell techniques out of nowhere.
That’s right, there’s also Dong Xi’s talent, which makes people envious!
After Song Qingfeng said that, even Liang Yan, who usually did not participate much, nodded. Liang Yan said, “Junior sister, your luck is really too good.”
Dong Xi wanted to laugh, but she could not.
Was she really lucky? It looked good, but… Who would be lucky enough to get into the best university after all the hard work, only to transmigrate into a book and find a way to clean up the mess left by the original body? It was simply hell-level difficulty.
“Senior Brothers, you flatter me. In my opinion, you two are the true geniuses…” Dong Xi said.
Before Dong Xi could finish, Song Qingfeng interrupted her, “Alright, let’s not flatter each other here. Since we both feel that the other party has a bright future, why don’t we make a gentleman’s agreement?”
Dong Xi blinked and said, “I don’t think my future is bright…”
Liang Yan looked confused. “What kind of gentlemen’s agreement?”
