Bai Jiyue went to open the door and saw Mingyuan standing outside with a food box in his hand. The food box was not opened, but she could smell the fragrant aroma of scallion oil.

Bai Jiyue's stomach suddenly started to growl, and she realized that she had not had time to eat dinner that night.

I don’t know if it was because he heard Bai Jiyue’s stomach’s demands, but Ming Yuan glanced at her abdomen with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

Bai Jiyue was slightly embarrassed, stroked her hair and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I'm going to see Bai Ji Ri and bring you some food." Ming Yuan walked in carrying a lunch box.

Bai Jiri was the second oldest among their group of people after Xie Ping, so Ma Qiao and Zhu Yuan all called him "Brother Bai". Only Ming Yuan, who was obviously younger, called him impolitely.

Bai Jiyue found the word "Bai Ji Ri" a bit harsh, but knowing that Ming Yuan had a strange personality, she didn't care.

She took the food box, opened it, and took out the plates inside one by one. There was a plate of hot and fragrant fried noodles, a bowl of hot porridge, and a plate of light side dishes. They were probably all made by him at the inn.

"People who have caught a cold should eat light food." Ming Yuan said calmly.

Bai Jiyue smiled at him: "You are so thoughtful, thank you!"

She was really hungry, so she helped her elder brother get down from the bed and sat down at the table, then she pulled the fried noodles over and started eating them in big mouthfuls.

Ming Yuan sat quietly aside, watching her eat, feeling a slight pain in his heart.

Look how hungry this girl is. That fight must have consumed so much of her energy!

Bai Jiri also ate, but he ate thoughtfully. He drank half of the porridge, put down the bowl and looked at Mingyuan: "How do you know we didn't have dinner?"

"Guess."

"Aren't you going to the market with Ma Qiao and the others? Why did you come back early?" Bai Jiri asked again.

Ming Yuan's face turned cold: "They were too bored playing, so I came back first. Why, it's not okay?"

If Zhu Yuan hadn't pulled him aside to talk for a while, causing him to come back a little later, the grabbing of Bai Jiyue's shoulder by Bai Shouhao would never have happened!

Seeing that Ming Yuan was a little unhappy, Bai Jiyue hurried to smooth things over: "Why not? We are grateful and feel sorry for delaying your fun tonight!"

Ming Yuan glanced at Bai Jiyue and saw the apologetic smile on her face, and his anger subsided.

It was already a great blessing from heaven for the Demon Lord to personally prepare food for them. However, Bai Jiri was so ungrateful that he even targeted and suspected him. If it wasn't for the girl, he would have been rude to him a long time ago!

"Well, you must be tired tonight. You can go back to your room and have a rest first. After we finish eating, I will take the dishes to the waiter myself." Bai Jiyue continued with an apologetic smile.

Although Bai Jiyue was trying to drive him away, Ming Yuan couldn't get angry when he saw her flattering smile.

He stood up and went out. He was indeed a little tired. It would be better for him to do it himself than to help her, as it would consume more energy.

After Mingyuan left, Bai Jiyue closed the door and looked back at Bai Jiri: "Brother, you were a little too sharp just now."

Bai Jiri frowned: "I feel uncomfortable because he keeps staring at you."

The words "always staring at you" made Bai Jiyue have a flash of thought. Could it be that the person who has been paying attention to her and her elder brother is Ming Yuan?

Then she shook her head again. It shouldn't be the case. They had discussed this before. Ming Yuan didn't have such profound skills at all. He had shown them his spiritual roots!

Even if he had poisoned Bai Xun before, he might have been able to use some means, but helping her get the antidote tonight required real skill. This skill was no worse than that of the prefect Cen Changqing. At his age, if he could cultivate to that level, he would be an outlier!

It's definitely not him!

Thinking of this, Bai Jiyue smiled at Bai Jiri and said, "Brother, you are too sensitive. He has always been eccentric, so it's not surprising that he does something strange.

"He sent us dinner out of kindness, so we should just accept it and thank him. Even if he has other intentions, we should just ignore them."

"He is handsome, but I am afraid of you - after all, I don't know much about you..." Bai Jiri had an expression like an old woman.

Bai Jiyue chuckled: "Brother, don't worry. No matter how strong the wind blows, I will remain unmoved."

After saying that, she pushed the side dish in front of Bai Yiri and said, "Eat quickly, and then have a good sleep."

The two stopped talking and started eating.

After the meal was over and Bai Jiyue was about to send the dishes away, Ma Qiao, Zhu Yuan and the others came back laughing. It seemed that they had a good time at the fair today.

Ma Qiao came in with a box and put it on the table: "I brought you some food, it's a midnight snack."

He looked at Bai Jiri and said with a smile, "You usually seem quite strong, why are you so weak after catching a cold?"

Although Bai Yiri has been detoxified, he is not as energetic as usual.

Ma Qiao was too careless to think that much, but Zhu Yuan saw something and asked, "What's wrong? Is Brother Bai sick? Have you seen a doctor?"

People like them who have cultivated themselves have strong self-healing abilities, so how could they become weak from a common cold?

Bai Jiyue didn't want to say much about what happened tonight, since it had already been resolved. She only said that the doctor said Bai Jiri almost got the plague, but fortunately it was discovered early, and the doctor prescribed medicine for him to take and rest more, and then she sent them all back to their rooms with a few words.

After making arrangements for her eldest brother, she went back to her room to rest. Only then did she have time to go to the spiritual root space to check on the progress of her cultivation.

After fighting with several people, the self-healing ability in her human race skills was upgraded to level 8. In this way, all her human race skills were level 8, and her entire cultivation level was upgraded by one level. She is now a third-level upper-class human race cultivator!

The communication and cooperation with the black cat has upgraded her Eldar's animal language skill by one level, and it is now level 3.

She used her weapon-controlling skills especially a lot tonight, including the silver hairpin, feather arrows and soft whip. Although someone was secretly helping her, her weapon-controlling skills of the craftsman clan were still upgraded by two levels and are now level 9!

Her craftsman skills are actually at a higher level than the human skills!

It’s a pity that the five skills of her craftsman clan have not developed evenly, so that her overall cultivation level is still the lowest among the craftsmen clan.

She thought that she would need to practice more in the future, strive to develop the skills of each race in a balanced way, and take her overall cultivation to a higher level. That way, she would no longer be constrained by people like Bai Shoukun!

The next day, after returning from his trip, Governor Cen Changqing said to Bai Jiyue and his sister, "I heard a piece of news today that Bai Shoukun's eldest son was poisoned and had to have one leg chopped off to save his life."

Bai Jiyue and Bai Jiri looked at each other. It seemed that the Bai family still failed to find a way to detoxify Bai Xun.

Cen Changqing said with a serious expression: "Bai Shoukun came to the post house to cause trouble two days ago. I also know that although the poison was not given by you, the Bai family seems to have determined that it is related to you, so they are expected to come to cause trouble again in the next two days. You'd better avoid them.

"It's not that we're afraid of them, but we'll be leaving in a day. There's no need to create trouble at this time and cause trouble to the reward you've worked so hard to get."

Bai Jiyue agreed solemnly, but thought in her heart that the Bai family even cut off Bai Xun's legs, and kept the fact that she beat him badly last night a secret, so they probably wouldn't dare to cause trouble for her again.
