"What's wrong?" Rong Xin finally had time to look at Zhou Jingyue after finishing her performance. She was a little surprised by the strange look on his face and asked, "Are you feeling unwell? Or did you remember something?"

"No, it's okay."

Zhou Jingyue shook his head and handed the medicine bottle to Jianhui. He said in a hoarse voice, "This medicine is very good for wounds. You need to apply it again in two hours. Remember to apply the medicine to Brother Yan. I, I have something to do, so I'll leave first."

"Ah."

Zhou Jingyue left as if escaping without looking back.

After running out, the moonlight sprinkled on his body. He looked up at the moon and calmed down a little.

"Has Aunt Xin always been like this?" Zhou Jingyue let out a long breath.

He wasn't too smart, but he wasn't stupid either. Aunt Xin had been sitting there until Senior Brother Yan was about to wake up, then she deliberately pushed her way to Senior Brother Jianhui.

As a result, when Senior Brother Yan saw Aunt Xin for the first time, he thought it was Aunt Xin who applied the medicine and did all this for him. He was most grateful to Aunt Xin and also blamed Master's Wife for what she said just now.

In the past, he didn't think anything of it.

Now it seems like there are loopholes everywhere. Aunt Xin seems to be explaining everything to Master's Wife, but every word she says makes me feel uneasy.

"Oh." Zhou Jingyue rubbed his swollen temples and decided to go find Senior Brother Yan after thinking about it.

Senior Brother Yan is smarter than him, maybe he can see something.

Lin Xuxi wanted to get the Xuan Lei Pagoda as soon as possible and come back to sever the contract with Jiang Sihan, so she set off in a hurry early in the morning.

Lin Xuxi didn't want to tell anyone about her departure and just wanted to leave quietly. But she ran into him as soon as she left the house.

"Master's Wife, Master's Wife, where are you going?" Zhou Jingyue suddenly appeared out of nowhere, stopped in front of her, and asked flatteringly, "Master's Wife, are you going out?"

"No."

Lin Xuxi waved his sleeves and wanted to go back.

"Master's wife, I know you are going to Jinbao Pavilion." Zhou Jingyue followed behind and explained, "I saw you write a letter two days ago, saying that you would go to Jinbao Pavilion the next day. I...I want to go with you!"

The last time Senior Brother Yan went out with Master's Wife, he was extremely jealous. This time, he also wanted to go out with Master's Wife.

He had good eyesight and knew it at a glance. Moreover, he deliberately didn't tell Senior Brother Yan because he wanted to accompany Master's Wife out alone.

"You were peeking?" Lin Xuxi frowned, looking displeased.

"I didn't mean to peek, I just took a quick glance and noticed." Zhou Jingyue begged, "Master's Wife, please. Take me with you. I promise to be obedient and not cause any trouble."

Lin Xuxi was curious and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"I want to accompany Master's Wife. I'm afraid something might happen to her."

Zhou Jingyue felt guilty when he said this. He lowered his head to look at the tip of his shoes, not even daring to raise his head. He stammered, "I just wanted to protect my master's wife."

"I need your protection as an early Jindan?"

"But Master's Wife, I want to follow you. I will definitely not cause trouble or create chaos. I will be obedient." Zhou Jingyue pitifully pulled Master's Wife's sleeve.

Just like how I used to act like a spoiled child.

But now, Lin Xuxi was not moved at all. He threw away his sleeves and said coldly, "I won't take anyone with me, and neither will you."

"But Master's Wife, Master's Wife, I can serve you tea and water and take care of you. If there is anyone you don't want to see, I can help you drive them away. There are a lot of people in the Jinbao Pavilion, and you need someone to serve you."

Zhou Jingyue followed behind and said flatteringly, "I can serve Master's Wife. Besides, the Young Master of Jinbao Pavilion is my good friend!"

"You deserve it?"

Lin Xuxi slammed the door shut, blocking the people in. She was annoyed by the sight of these people. Once the matter of the demon cultivator invasion was dealt with, she would leave Xuanyu Sect.

The door slammed shut mercilessly, nearly breaking Zhou Jingyue's nose. He rubbed the tip of his nose and made up his mind: I must go out with my master's wife.

After going out, he can accompany his master's wife to squeeze out Senior Brother Yan.

The next day, when Lin Xuxi left, he only said goodbye to the sect leader and then left on his own.

In her previous life, she hadn't been asked to take the Xuan Lei Pagoda, and she had no connection to the Jin Bao Pavilion. This life could be put to good use, and she needed a top-grade herb to refine medicine for the Sect Master.

As soon as he left Xuanyu Sect, he sensed something was wrong. When he turned around, he saw Zhou Jingyue standing in the distance, with a flattering smile on his face.

He looks young, so trying to please him isn't too offensive.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Xuxi stopped and snorted coldly, "I'm not going out alone, and I'm not with Senior Brother Yin Li. Did Jiang Sihan send you here?"

"No, no, I followed on my own. I told my master, but I didn't say I would go with my master's wife. I said I had something to do." Zhou Jingyue knew that his master's wife didn't like him, so he didn't dare to say it.

"Master's Wife, please let me follow you, please."

"Master's wife, the young master of Jinbao Pavilion is my friend, really. Jinbao Pavilion has a lot of people coming and going, and Master's wife is well-known, so there must be a lot of people visiting. Master's wife, you can take me with you as a tool to deal with people."

Zhou Jingyue was almost in tears.

Famous? Her reputation was completely ruined by this group of people. What kind of reputation was left?

Does Zhou Jingyue really not know or does he say this on purpose to annoy her?

"Master's Wife, just take me with you. I promise I won't do anything! Besides, I have a good relationship with the Young Master of Jinbao Pavilion, so it will be easier for you to do things."

"Or, Master's Wife, please just think of me as going to see the Young Master, not following you, okay?"

She had no reason to say that.

Lin Xuxi didn't say yes or no, and turned to fly away. She didn't refuse because the round trip would only take a few days, so she just pretended not to see it.

Moreover, Zhou Jingyue did have a friendship with the young master, and she also had things to buy, so it would be more convenient if she had an acquaintance.

Zhou Jingyue followed closely, but his cultivation was not enough and he was still far behind his master's wife.

Jinbao Pavilion is located in Yudu, the most prosperous city in the world of immortal cultivation.

Yudu City is located in the center of the world of immortal cultivation. It is well connected and convenient to go anywhere. Yudu not only has the Jinbao Pavilion, but also some other famous merchants.

As long as you are rich enough, you can get what you want in Yudu.

"Master's Wife." Zhou Jingyue followed closely behind her and explained, "Before, when I was on a mission, I met Tao Fengzhi from the Jinbao Pavilion. I accidentally saved him. We became friends after that, and we have occasionally exchanged letters over the years. So, Master's Wife, are you coming to the Jinbao Pavilion to buy something?"

Lin Xuxi did not answer and plunged into the bustling street market.

"Spiritual beast! Spiritual beast! A rare spiritual beast!"

"These are top-quality medicinal herbs, all first-grade elixirs. Come and have a look everyone!"

"One high-grade spirit stone can bring you a first-grade treasure. Come and take a look!"

.......

Lin Xuxi hadn't been to such a bustling place in ages. The hawking sounds around her made her feel a little dazed. Finally, she stopped at a stall selling cinnabar.

"Master's Wife, would you like to buy some cinnabar?" Fu cultivators usually make their own cinnabar so that it can be used easily. Zhou Jingyue looked at Master's Wife with some surprise and asked, "If you need it, Master's Wife, I have quite a bit."

"If you like it, I'll buy it for you."

Speaking of which, Zhou Jingyue has always only brought gifts for Aunt Xin but ignored his master's wife, and he wants to make amends.

"This cinnabar isn't right." Lin Xuxi sniffed it carefully, then rubbed some with the tip of her middle finger, sniffed it again, and then asked, "Where does this cinnabar come from?"
