I exchanged sects with the real daughter, and I ascended to heaven to offer sacrifices to her

Zhou Hanshi turned around and his eyes stayed on Ye Qingning. As the New Year was approaching, he was not surprised that Xie Jibai came to Ye Mansion to look for him.

When Zhou Hanshi accepted Xie Jibai as his disciple, he had already heard that Xie Jibai was not liked by the Xie family. Because he was a concubine's son, he was often bullied by the clan members, and the children of the other branches also mocked him.

Because of this, it is absolutely impossible for Xie Jibai to go back to the Xie family for the New Year, so it is reasonable for him to come to find him as his master.

Zhou Hanshi had no doubts and nodded to Ye Qingning, saying, "Did you gain anything from this trip to the Zen temple?"

After saying this, he looked at Ye Hanyue who was standing beside him and said, "Master has something to ask you, Junior Brother. Go and guard your father. When the time comes, remove all the silver needles from his head."

Upon hearing this, Ye Hanyue obediently left as she was told. Thinking that the two of them were just going to talk about some topics related to Zen practice, she lost her curiosity.

While Ye Hanyue was away, Ye Qingning started brainstorming, because she didn't know whether Old Man Zhou knew about Xie Jibai's inner demons. If she answered wrong, she would be exposed.

Since Old Man Zhou deliberately let the crazy woman leave, does it prove that Old Man Zhou already knew that Xie Jibai had a mental demon?

After some thought, Ye Qingning spoke calmly: "Master, I have indeed gained some enlightenment in the Zen temple, and the nascent inner demon was suppressed by Master Kongwang with the Brahma Bell."

"I, the disciple, am fully aware of the dangers of the inner demon. I have been reflecting on myself day and night, striving to maintain a peaceful state of mind to prevent the inner demon from resurfacing."

Ye Qingning observed Zhou Hanshi's reaction as he spoke, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhou Hanshi nod slightly.

She refused to introduce Xie Jibai to Master Kongwang, but Master Kongwang still took Xie Jibai to the back mountain of the Zen temple, which was enough to show that there were other people who introduced Xie Jibai.

After all, there are quite a few disciples looking for Master Kongwang, so why should it be Xie Jibai's turn first?

Since it wasn't her help, it was probably Xie Jibai who asked Old Man Zhou for help, and Old Man Zhou found someone to introduce him, so Old Man Zhou knew that Xie Jibai had a mental demon.

This is not about causing trouble outside or making enemies. If you encounter problems in your cultivation, Old Man Zhou will still take care of it.

Zhou Hanshi's eyes were deep as he continued fanning himself with the palm-leaf fan. He warned, "The path of cultivation is long and difficult. Don't let the outside world disturb your state of mind. Especially the word love, which is the most hurtful."

"I hope you will act with moderation and not be trapped by emotions. There are many temptations in the world. Don't let selfish desires blind your eyes and regret your past actions. On the path of cultivation, be sure to focus on it, and only then will you achieve success."

Ye Qingning felt that this sentence should really be said to Xie Jibai. If he could listen to it, he would not bother her anymore.

"Master is right. Disciple will remember your teachings."

After saying that, Ye Qingning stepped forward and took the palm-leaf fan from Zhou Hanshi's hand: "Let me take care of boiling the medicine. Master, please take a rest first."

Zhou Hanshi nodded slightly, his eyes filled with satisfaction. "You have always been sensible, and I am more assured of you than your senior sister."

"But boiling the medicine is one thing, and I will test you on the proportions and efficacy of this decoction. You must explain it in detail. If you answer incorrectly, you will be punished when we return to the sect."

The corners of Ye Qingning's lips twitched slightly. This test from Old Man Zhou really caught him off guard.

After all, she has lived a second life, is it possible that she cannot answer it?

She must have given the wrong answer.

In this case, it would be Xie Jibai who would be punished after returning to the sect.

The premise is that Xie Jibai did not expose the fact that he was impersonated by someone else.

Two hours later, the medicine soup was ready.

Ye Qingning gently blew away the hot steam rising from the medicine jar, put it in a white porcelain bowl, and while no one was in the kitchen, she mixed the mantra Gu that Feng Wuyang had given her into the medicine soup.

The Mantra Gu was extremely small, so small that it was almost impossible to detect with the naked eye, and it was almost transparent in color. When she opened the box, she almost didn't notice its existence.

This insect has twelve legs. It is said that after entering the human body, it will grow a different number of legs depending on the level of cultivation of the person who takes it.

The function of these legs is to firmly attach to the heart meridian of the person who is poisoned. They can also grow at an astonishing speed and gradually become transparent, making them difficult to detect like symbiosis.

As time goes by, the control over the mind of the person who has been poisoned will become increasingly stronger, so that the person who has been poisoned can only reveal the truth and cannot tell a single lie.

Ye Qingning brought the medicine to find Zhou Hanshi and went to Ye Xin's room together.

Seeing Ye Xin lying on the bed with a pale face like a dead fish that had been exposed to the sun for three months, Ye Qingning felt relieved.

And he was surprised to find that Ye Xin's cultivation level had indeed dropped significantly.

A cultivator of a lower level cannot sense the cultivation level of a cultivator of a higher level, but at this moment, she can actually sense Ye Xin's cultivation level.

What a coincidence, Ye Xin fell to the same level of cultivation as her!

Originally, Ye Xin had reached the great perfection of the fusion stage, and was only one step away from the cave void realm. However, his current cultivation level is only the middle stage of the Nascent Soul!

Nascent Soul, Out-of-Body, Spirit Severance, and Fusion, directly falling through three major realms!

Now she finally had the most intuitive feeling of how cruel Su Ye was and why he was the villain in the original novel.

Ye Qingning collected his thoughts, remained calm and walked to the bed.

When Ye Hanyue saw "Xie Jibai" coming with the medicine, she immediately stepped forward to take the bowl and deliberately touched the back of "Xie Jibai"'s hand.

This touch made Ye Qingning very upset, and she almost threw the medicine bowl away. It would be devastating if she, a woman, was molested by another woman.

Precisely because the medicine was brought by Xie Jibai, and Zhou Hanshi was invited by Ye Hanyue with great difficulty, Ye Hanyue was completely confident in this bowl of medicine.

However, the two elders of the Ye family who were guarding the house were worried.

One of the elders reached out to take the medicine bowl, sniffed it gently, took out a silver needle and tried it, and after confirming that it was correct, he handed it to Ye Hanyue.

Ye Hanyue noticed Zhou Hanshi's expression suddenly darken, and quickly feigned anger towards the Third Elder: "This bowl of medicine was brewed by my master himself for my father, how could there be any problem! Elder, you are really worrying too much!"

The third elder of the Ye family was also quite knowledgeable. Upon hearing this, he bowed to Zhou Hanshi and said with a hint of apology and helplessness in his tone: "The patriarch is seriously injured and unconscious. As an elder of the Ye family, this is my duty. Please don't blame me, please don't blame me."

Zhou Hanshi's expression eased slightly, but his eyes remained sharp. He said in a deep voice, "Third Elder, you have fulfilled your duties faithfully. This is the proper thing to do. Now that you have inspected this bowl of medicine, no matter what happens to Patriarch Ye, it has nothing to do with me. The Ye Family does not need to send anyone else to look for me."

Ye Qingning smiled secretly in his heart but did not show it on his face.

She knew that Old Man Zhou would react like this. Her master was inherently arrogant and would not tolerate any questioning.

He also has a bit of a stubborn temper and is the most stubborn elder in Luoyun Sect. The action of the third elder of the Ye family has undoubtedly offended Old Man Zhou.

No matter how capable Ye Hanyue becomes in the future, Old Man Zhou will never set foot in the Ye family again.

Ye Hanyue bit her lip, blaming the Third Elder for being too talkative. She could only hold the medicine bowl in one hand and gently tug at Zhou Hanshi's sleeve with the other, saying softly, "Master, please don't be angry with the Third Elder. He's thinking about the entire Ye Family."

Zhou Hanshi snorted coldly, "I'm not unreasonable, but a doctor is like a parent. All I ask is a clear conscience. Since the Third Elder doesn't trust me, I'll just not drink this bowl of medicine!"
