Don't mess with the little apprentice sister! She is greedy and immoral

But it's also very strange.

It stands to reason that such a strange lotus pond must have its extraordinary features, but after everyone sensed it several times, they did not feel anything special.

This lotus pond looks so ordinary and unremarkable.

But now they have developed a psychological trauma towards mediocre things.

After all, all the treasures of their ancestor are just like this... ordinary.

"There is no night-shining pearl at the bottom of the pond."

Xiang Qing, who was most concerned about the Night Pearl, had already searched the bottom of the pool when he came, even under the mud.

But I didn't see any night pearl.

"This pond has been searched thoroughly inside and out before. There are indeed no night-shining pearls at the bottom of the pond. All the night-shining pearls suddenly appeared after the jokes were told."

Qin Zhen naturally also understood the peculiarity of this pond.

If not for this, I wouldn’t have thought of bringing my senior brothers and sisters from Poyun Sect here.

"Is there some kind of magical formation at the bottom of the pool?"

Xiang Qing became interested again and hurriedly explored it carefully again.

But still found nothing.

"There is no special smell." Jingxing frowned.

Huai Xu was staring at the lotus pond in a daze.

"Eldest brother?"

Ning Po sensed something was wrong and took the initiative to call Huai Xu.

When Huai Xu heard the voice, he came to his senses and looked at everyone.

"Is there something wrong?" Xiang Qing asked.

Huai Xu shook his head: "There's nothing wrong, it's just that this lotus looks familiar."

“Aren’t all lotus flowers like this?”

Xiang Qing carefully looked at the lotus in the pond for a long time, but he couldn't tell the difference between this pink and white lotus and the other lotus.

Even Jingxing, the smartest person, didn't find anything special about the appearance of this lotus.

Huai Xu shook his head upon hearing this: "It's different."

"What's the difference?"

"Oh, yes, you are not like me, you can't see."

As soon as Huai Xu said this, Qin Zhen and the others couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.

"What did you see? Is there something that only people with dragon blood can see?" Qin Zhen was confused.

Huai Xu nodded seriously: "Well, the plants that the dragon race nurtures with their own power are different from ordinary things. They are not divided by four seasons, and..."

Huai Xu cast a hint of dragon energy over everyone's eyes.

Only then were Qin Zhen and the others able to see the scenery that Huai Xu saw.

The scenery they see with their own eyes is really completely different.

The pink and white lotus in their eyes now looked as if it had been filtered through a sparkling special effects filter, with faint spots of light flickering on the petals.

"So - this lotus was planted by a... uh, a dragon?"

Qin Zhen's first reaction was to think of the earth dragon that had turned over.

As if he knew what Qin Zhen was thinking, Huai Xu spoke directly: "I'll go ask."

Huai Xu left as soon as he said he would, but Xiang Qing had already come to the pool and started telling jokes.

“When I first entered the sect, my skin was even thinner than it is now. Since I hadn’t yet completed the fasting and needed to eat, I was too embarrassed to serve more rice, so I secretly took the rice spoon and pressed the rice into the bowl with all my strength. As a result, I directly pressed the bottom of the bowl off. Hahahahahahahahaha…”

Ning Po: “…”

If you want to tell a joke, just tell a good joke. Why do you have to talk about his past?

Qin Zhen looked at him lovingly when she heard that.

Even Jing Xing reached out and patted Ning Po on the shoulder.

Only Xiang Qing stared at the water without blinking, hoping that a night pearl would float up so that he could pick it up and sell it for money.

Unfortunately, even though her eyes were almost sore from staring, not a single night pearl appeared.

"Isn't it funny? It's obviously very funny." Xiang Qing was puzzled.

Qin Zhen didn't know whether this was funny or not. She only knew that if the eldest senior sister continued talking, the third senior brother would probably dig a hole and bury himself.

Seeing this, the considerate Qin Zhen sighed helplessly.

Then, she took the initiative to change the subject: "I suddenly remembered that there is something I seem to have forgotten to say just now."

"what's up?"

Xiang Qing's attention was indeed instantly attracted.

Seeing this, Ning Po's tense body finally relaxed a little.

"What should I say?" Qin Zhen stroked his chin and stared at the lotus pond in front of him, as if thinking about something.

After hesitating for about two seconds, she continued:

"In fact, sometimes I seem to be able to faintly hear someone calling me from this lotus pond."

"Ah?" Xiang Qing was stunned for a moment after hearing that.

Jing Xing's reaction speed was extremely fast, and he almost pulled Qin Zhen over from the lotus pond.

Then he used his body as a shield, standing between Qin Zhen and the pool.

It was as if he was afraid that something would suddenly emerge from the lotus pond and drag Qin Zhen away.

Seeing this, Qin Zhen patted Jing Xing's strong arm in a soothing manner.

"Although I don't know who is calling me, and I can't really tell whether it is actually calling me, after all, it is just a vague whisper, but there is one thing I am very sure of."

"Which point?"

"That voice didn't seem to have any malicious intent, and it even... made me feel a little nostalgic."

Jingxing's brows were tightly furrowed, with no intention of relaxing at all.

Even Xiang Qing put away his joking mood and said seriously:

"Sometimes, having no malicious intent doesn't mean you won't be in danger."

Malice is subjective, but many dangers exist objectively.

For example, many opportunities in the secret realm of inheritance are full of dangers, but the owner of the secret realm sets up these dangers not with any malicious intent, but simply to select suitable inheritors.

Even Ning Po, who was very ashamed and angry just now, briefly warned Qin Zhen: "Be careful."

Qin Zhen knew that everyone was concerned about her and didn't feel offended.

He just explained the situation in more detail to everyone: "In fact, when I was in Yaskawa before, I often came here. I could sit by the lotus pond and stare blankly for a whole day. Although it sounds a bit strange to say this, this place really made me feel more at ease and peaceful than anywhere else at that time."

"Don't people often come here to tell jokes? Don't you feel disturbed?" Xiang Qing was curious.

"When I'm in a daze, I lose track of time and my surroundings, which is fine."

Qin Zhen smiled when she said this, as if she had thought of something interesting.

"When I was a child, I met an immortal who saved me. At that time, I really wanted to bring him here to play, but unfortunately..."

"He couldn't come?" Jing Xing understood.

Qin Zhen nodded: "Yes, he suddenly disappeared. When I saw him again, he told me that he was almost caught by the river god to get married, so he was delayed for a while."

"The River God...getting married? A man or a woman?" Jing Xing suddenly realized something.
