The Return of the Evil Concubine: The whole continent is shaking
Chapter 1776 Can I Suffer a Loss?
"You..." Hu Jing was so angry that she couldn't speak.
The disciple ahead of her breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this; he was glad he was lucky and had almost missed the opportunity.
“Grandma, your elders’ courtyard still needs tidying up. Why don’t you stay at my place tonight?” Si Chuchu said, looking at Yan Li.
"Okay." Yan Li nodded.
Si Chuchu was overjoyed to see Yan Li agree.
"Second Elder, how is Qingyue?" Yan Li asked the Second Elder beside her.
"After these days of rest, although her body is still weak, she is fine now, and her mental strength has been completely restored. This is all thanks to Elder Yan's help. She originally wanted to run out to see you, but her fiancé kept a close eye on her," the Second Elder said with a smile.
"It's good that she's alright." Yan Li nodded with a smile.
I never expected that Qingyue was already engaged. I had thought she and Yiyang were quite a good match.
If others knew Yan Li's thoughts, they would definitely criticize her for what she was thinking, putting two simple-minded people together, and then having several more simple-minded people. Was she planning to make them a whole bunch of simple-minded people?
After Yan Li finished speaking, she left with Si Chuchu.
Wen Mi and Shen Jing were taken away by Gong Hang.
As the crowd dispersed, the entire Void Sect fell completely silent.
In Si Chuchu's courtyard.
"Grandma, everyone knows Wang Ji couldn't possibly have that many magical beasts. Why did you still help him tame them? You're really letting him off easy." Back in her courtyard, Si Chuchu spoke with a face full of resentment.
"You think your great-grandmother is the one who suffers a loss?" Yan Li looked at the sulking Si Chuchu with amusement.
"Of course not, Great-Grandma is wise and powerful." Si Chuchu quickly shook her head upon hearing this.
"If that's the case, why are you still angry?" Yan Li couldn't help but chuckle at the sight.
"It's because my great-grandmother is too kind. I was afraid that she would let him off the hook because he is also a disciple of a sect, which would be too easy for him," Si Chuchu replied.
"Don't worry, although I tamed those magical beasts, didn't I just sign contracts with the king himself?" Yan Li smiled meaningfully.
“But he can terminate the contract at any time,” Si Chuchu said, somewhat puzzled.
“The magical beasts I tamed are naturally different from others,” Yan Li replied.
"Different? Great-Grandma, tell me quickly, what's different?" Si Chuchu's eyes lit up when she heard this.
"Now that I know those magical beasts are problematic, I naturally can't let the schemes of the person behind them succeed. I've placed a mental restraint on those magical beasts."
"If they were in Wang Ji's hands, they would naturally be his magical beasts. Once he breaks the contract, then they would have no say in the matter," Yan Li explained with a smile.
"Wouldn't that just benefit the person behind him?" Si Chuchu was even more puzzled.
“It won’t be any cheaper. Once he breaks the contract, as long as I don’t release the mental restraints on those magical beasts, no one can form a contract with them. Moreover, those magical beasts will come to me on their own. Then you can form a contract with whichever one you like,” Yan Li replied.
"Grandma, you're amazing! All my anger was for nothing." Si Chuchu looked at Yan Li with eyes full of admiration.
"Not angry anymore?" Yan Li looked at her amusedly.
"I'm not angry anymore, I'm not angry anymore." Si Chuchu shook her head.
"Since you're not angry anymore, you should get some rest." Yan Li patted her head.
She realized that she was really starting to resemble her great-grandmother more and more.
It's so frustrating. At such a young and beautiful age, they've somehow developed the mentality of someone's great-grandmother.
"Okay, Grandma, you should get some rest too." Si Chuchu said happily and went back to her room.
The next day.
As soon as Yan Li woke up, Si Chuchu excitedly ran into her room and asked if she wanted to go and see the pot that could be used to steal treasures.
It turned out that Sect Leader Yan had promised Hu Jing that he would help her hire a beast tamer to train the beasts, on the condition that she lead everyone to find the pot.
In order not to waste the monsters she had worked so hard to obtain, Hu Jing had no choice but to agree.
“Let’s go, I’m very curious too.” Yan Li nodded.
After they finished washing up and had breakfast, they ran into Gong Hang and the others as they walked out of the courtyard.
Everyone was very curious about the pot that could steal treasures.
After exchanging greetings, everyone walked towards where Sect Leader Yan and the others were, chatting and laughing.
"Great-grandmother, you're so skilled at crafting weapons, do you know if there really are such magical pots?" Gong Hang asked Yan Li.
"I can't refine it myself right now, but there are always people better than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. Just because I can't do it doesn't mean others can't," Yan Li said with a smile.
"Grandma is too modest. If you can't even refine it, then it's even more impossible for anyone else." Gong Hang's eyes were full of certainty.
Others agreed.
Yan Li: ...
These kids believe in themselves more than I do!
When Yan Li and the others arrived, Sect Leader Yan and the elders were already gathered together.
"Elder Yan is also interested in that pot?" Ninth Elder asked sarcastically.
"Isn't that right? I was thinking that if I got that pot, I'd have it steal Elder Ninth's treasures. Elder Ninth, you'd better keep a close eye on your treasures." Yan Li said casually.
Everyone:...
This is the first time I've ever seen someone talk about stealing someone else's treasure so confidently!
Yan Li: ...
Anyway, it was the pot that stole the treasure, not me. I had no psychological burden at all when I stole it!
"How could you be so shameless?" The Ninth Elder was instantly speechless with anger.
"Even the Ninth Elder cherishes his ugly face so much, why shouldn't I, with my beautiful face, want it?" Yan Li retorted.
Ninth Elder: ...
Ignore her!
I can't talk to her anymore!
Otherwise, I might get so angry that I'd die before I even got to the pot!
Seeing that the Ninth Elder's face was flushed with anger, everyone silently admired Yan Li in their hearts.
After all, this was the first person to make the Ninth Elder suffer setbacks every time.
"Our great-grandmother is so powerful, she might not even care about the Ninth Elder's treasures," Shen Qianqian muttered softly, but everyone present could hear her clearly.
Everyone:...
The Ninth Elder finally managed to quell the fire, and you've come out to add fuel to the fire again?
"Master, you must remember your promise to me." Hu Jing asked Sect Leader Yan for confirmation, still feeling uneasy.
"Don't worry, our sect can afford to hire a beast tamer from the Beast Garden to help you train the beasts." Sect Master Yan nodded coldly.
Yesterday, Gong Hang had already told him about wanting Shen Jing to fill the position of Hu Jing's apprentice, and he was also very satisfied with Shen Jing.
They had already discussed it and decided that since Shen Jing was older than the other disciples, they would directly let him fill the second place, which would save the disciples from having to re-rank them.
Therefore, in Sect Master Yan's eyes at this time, Hu Jing was no longer his disciple.
"It's good that Master remembers." Hu Jing was relieved to receive this promise again.
At this moment, she felt very resentful towards Yan Li. If Yan Li hadn't been unwilling to spend any time helping her tame the beast yesterday, she wouldn't have needed to use the location of that broken pot as a bargaining chip with her master.
