After the mind-reading cripple junior sister, the entire sect rose to prominence.

Chapter 79 Wanting to Eat Spirit Fruit
Why would the recording stone suddenly mention other garden masters and elders?
What does this have to do with them!
This only increased the sect leader's doubts. "Is this really true?"

"Yes."

"Very well, let's inform them all at once and ask them to come to the main hall."

The tall, thin disciple responded and hurriedly left.

While waiting, Sect Leader Liu Wuhan invited Hu Jiu to sit down, and then asked the question he had been wondering about—

"I wonder who this baby is?"

He looked at Mo Jiuwei in Hu Jiu's arms with some curiosity.

Why did you bring a child with you? It looks really strange.

“Oh, this is my junior sister. She has been crying non-stop ever since Senior Sister Chen had her accident, so I had no choice but to bring her along.” Hu Jiu looked down at Mo Jiuwei with affection in his eyes. “Sect Leader Liu, you may not know, but Junior Sister was raised by Senior Sister Chen and is closest to her. She started crying as soon as Senior Sister Chen had her accident. This is probably some kind of preordained connection.”

That's utter nonsense!
What could a child that age know? How could he possibly sense that something had happened to Chen Lan?

Sect Leader Liu was somewhat skeptical and was about to say something when he heard the infant let out a loud "Ah!"

[Yes, yes, I can sense it!]

The sect leader was taken aback.

Then, he saw Hu Jiu, who was sitting below, smile and say, "Jiuwei, do you think you're worried about Senior Sister Chen?"

"hold head high!"

Of course!

"Are you worried about him?" Hu Jiu casually pointed to a disciple inside the hall.

Mo Jiuwei turned her head away immediately upon seeing this.

[Pshaw, who's worried about him?]

Liu Wuhan's eyes lit up. "This child is truly exceptional."

“Of course.” Mo Jiuwei was praised, but Hu Jiu seemed even happier than if she had been praised herself, and even straightened her posture a bit more. “If it weren’t for that, we wouldn’t have been able to mobilize the entire sect to come to your sect to ask for our people.”

"The entire sect mobilized?" Liu Wuhan almost choked.

“Indeed, all the people of my sect are waiting outside Qingyue Gate, and they will leave together only after we have an explanation.” Hu Jiu smiled. “If they don’t get an explanation, they don’t mind going to the Hundred Gathering Alliance.”

The sect leader's heart sank, and he quickly reassured him, "Don't worry, once everyone has arrived and we've seen the recording stone, we'll report it to the authorities and handle it accordingly."

Then he added, “It’s not good for your disciples to be waiting outside. How about this, I’ll have someone invite them here so they can see the results of our handling of the matter with their own eyes.”

Sect Leader Liu Wuhan knew that if what his two disciples said was true, then the matter of Yu Cheng would definitely not end well.

So many disciples witnessed it with their own eyes at the mountain gate; if they are not severely punished, it will not be able to convince the public.

Since that's the case, he can now explain things to the people of the Immortal Sect, so he naturally has nothing to fear.

Another thing is to invite people over, so they won't go looking for the Hundred Alliance.

The Qingyue Sect can't afford to lose face like this!
Hu Jiu knew what he was thinking, but still nodded, "Alright."

They must be getting anxious waiting outside, why not invite them in to watch together?

So the sect leader sent his disciples to invite someone else.

I'm so hungry, I want to eat fruit.

I wonder if Qingyue Sect has any good food.

If I cried and begged him for it, he would probably give it to me, right?

[Since we've come all this way, we might as well take advantage of it!] Mo Jiuwei's eyes darted around, and then she burst into tears.

Liu Wuhan had just taken a sip of tea when he suddenly heard Mo Jiuwei crying, which startled him so much that he almost dropped his cup.

Although he was the sect leader, the last time he had been in such close contact with an infant was a hundred years ago. Now, suddenly hearing the infant's demonic voice piercing his ears, he felt very uncomfortable.

"Why is she crying?" Liu Wuhan asked.

She was thinking to herself: Could it be that something happened to her senior sister again, which is why she is like this?

Unexpectedly, Hu Jiu just smiled helplessly, "We came in a hurry because of our senior sister. She hasn't eaten for a long time, so she must be starving."

“If that’s the case, then hurry up and feed her.” An elder next to him covered his ears.

I'm getting old, and I can't stand even the slightest noise anymore.

If he didn't have other things to do later, he really wanted to just shut down his hearing.

"This... I came in a hurry and wasn't prepared." Hu Jiu smiled apologetically. "You don't know, my junior sister is extremely picky. She only likes to eat spiritual fruits, and she won't eat anything that isn't good."

After saying that, he lowered his head to coax Mo Jiuwei, "Junior sister, be good, don't cry. Now that we're out and about, Qingyue Sect is not like our Xianlai Sect. There are no spiritual fruits here that you like to eat. Just wait, and we'll buy them for you when we get back."

Upon hearing this, Liu Wuhan was the first to object.

What is this nonsense!

What do you mean Qingyue Sect is inferior to Xianlai Sect? Ha, what a joke! Doesn't Qingyue Sect have everything that Xianlai Sect has?
Mo Jiuwei seemed to understand, and her wailing grew even louder, which made Liu Wuhan's veins throb. "It's just some spirit fruit. I happen to have some Five Elements Fruits that I picked this morning. But she's so young, are you sure she can eat them?"

I don't have many children, so don't lie to me.

Why do I remember that babies can't eat spirit fruits?
“My junior sister is exceptionally talented and can indeed eat it,” Hu Jiu said with a smile. “Since the sect leader has spiritual fruits here, I’ll give it a try. I wonder if my junior sister will like them.”

Liu Wuhan twitched his lips, too lazy to argue with him, took out a spiritual fruit from his Qiankun Ring and had his disciple bring it over.

The Five Elements Fruit isn't considered a particularly precious spiritual fruit, but that's in Liu Wuhan's opinion. He believes that for a small sect, it's already quite good.

But to everyone's surprise, Mo Jiuwei only ate one, then turned her head away as if she was disgusted, and then burst into tears.

Hu Jiu pretended to be embarrassed, "This...it seems that Junior Sister doesn't like to eat this kind of fruit."

"Hey, I still have some honey-infused peaches here, why don't we let her try some too?" An elder couldn't stand it anymore, thinking to himself, how could these two be looking down on their Qingyue Sect? This won't do.

Just then, I remembered that I also had some fruit, so I took it out.

This honey-infused peach is better than the Five Elements Fruit; it has more spiritual energy and a very sweet taste.

Mo Jiuwei was quite satisfied with her meal, but the fruit was too small; the five given by the elder weren't even enough to fill her teeth.

That's all? That's far too little.

Such a large sect, yet so stingy, tsk.

Mo Jiuwei smacked her lips, clearly indicating that she hadn't eaten well.

Hu Jiu didn't say anything more this time, but simply wiped Mo Jiuwei's mouth.

However, the sect leader and elders were finding it hard to bear.

They are powerful figures of the Qingyue Sect, with countless treasures. Surely they can't even satisfy the appetite of a tiny infant!

Liu Wuhan glanced at the Third Elder, feeling resentful.

It's just honey-brewed peach, only slightly better than my own five-fruit stuff!

I have even better ones!
