Si Lei Zhenjun

As the sun sets, a brilliant orange-red hangs on the horizon, slowly sinking into the horizon like molten gold, dyeing the sky into a gentle blue sky.

Chu Xing walked in the afterglow of the setting sun and gently pushed open the gate of his house.

However, when he stepped into the courtyard, he found it unusually quiet, even a little deserted.

In the small courtyard, the figures of Jiang Lihuo's aunt and nephew were nowhere to be seen, and even the little Qilin and the little fox were nowhere to be seen.

There was only a girl in a green dress sweeping the floor with a broom, humming an unknown tune, and she seemed to be in a good mood.

Her figure looks particularly soft and beautiful against the backdrop of the setting sun, like a moving painting.

"Master! You are finally back! Xiaoyu missed you so much!"

As soon as Xiaoyu saw Chu Xing coming in, she stood up and ran over with a look of surprise on her face, then threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.

Chu Xing stroked her soft black hair with a gentle expression, but for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

The two of them hugged each other quietly, and time seemed to freeze at this moment.

All the noise and disturbance around them were isolated, leaving only the sound of their heartbeats and breathing.

After a long time, Xiaoyu reluctantly let him go and handed him a storage bag:

"Sir, these are the spirit stones I earned. I give them all to you."

Chu Xing took it and saw that there were actually four to five thousand spirit stones inside. He smiled and said:

"Silly girl, you should keep what you earned yourself. Why give it to me?"

Xiaoyu raised her little face, her eyes were as gentle as water, and she smiled sweetly:

"I heard from Sister Wanwan that you still owe a lot of spirit stones. Xiaoyu wants to help you share some of the burden. That way, you won't have to work so hard to go out and do missions to earn spirit stones in the future."

Listening to her gentle and considerate words, Chu Xing felt a warm current flowing through his heart, and he couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her forehead.

Xiaoyu's cheeks were flushed. She looked at him infatuatedly and bit her pink lips gently: "Sir..."

Looking at the girl's charming eyes and pretty face, Chu Xing moved closer and gently placed his lips on the two soft jelly pieces.

The girl's body softened instantly and she fell softly into his arms.

After a long while, Chu Xing looked at the girl's fiery face and asked softly:

"Did you see Xiaoli and her aunt when you came back?"

"Well, Xiaoli's aunt took her to see your master. She said she wanted to take Xiaoli home to stay for a few days."

Hearing this, Chu Xing gently picked her up by the waist, closed the gate behind him, and walked quickly into the house.

……

The next morning, the sky was just beginning to turn pale, and the first ray of sunlight filtered through the thin window paper, casting patches of light into the house.

Chu Xing hugged Xiaoyu, and the two of them snuggled in bed, whispering softly.

"You stinky disciple, come out here!"

Suddenly, the master's roar was heard outside the courtyard.

Chu Xing quickly put on his clothes, shoes and socks, pushed open the door and walked into the yard.

I saw the master standing in the yard with his hands on his hips, his eyebrows raised, and an angry look on his face.

"What's wrong, Master? Who made you unhappy again?" Chu Xing hurriedly stepped forward and asked cautiously.

"Humph," Qi Shunan glared at Chu Xing, "Come back with me and you'll find out."

Chu Xing nodded in confusion and followed her out the door.

Flying quickly with the master, they soon arrived above her courtyard.

Chu Xing took a closer look and was stunned.

The courtyard, which was once full of lush flowers and greenery, is now bare of trees and vegetation.

The courtyard was in a mess, with broken branches and leaves everywhere.

Chu Xing couldn't help laughing and cleared his throat, "Master, who messed up your yard like this?"

"You're still laughing!" Qi Shunan pointed angrily at a corner of the courtyard. "It's all because of this thing you brought back. Yesterday, the fierce girl brought Xiao Li to me and left it here. Humph! As a result, when I woke up, I found the yard was bare."

Chu Xing looked in the direction of her finger curiously.

In a corner of the courtyard, the little Qilin was standing on its hind legs with its head raised.

There is a brick on top of its nose, which looks very funny.

Daibao was looking at it with a puzzled look on his face, as if he was also curious about why the little Qilin did such a thing.

Seeing this scene, Chu Xing couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Hmm?" Qi Shunan frowned.

Chu Xing quickly put away his smile, flew in front of the little Qilin, patted its head gently, and scolded it with a stern face:

"Why are you hanging around my master's yard? Don't you know she's the boss of Piaomiao Peak? Do you still want to stay in Piaomiao Peak?"

"Yo-"

The little Qilin blinked his big watery eyes, looked at him pitifully, and let out a slight whimper, as if expressing his grievances.

Then, it slowly raised one of its front paws and pointed at its round belly.

"Hmm? Are you hungry?" Chu Xing asked uncertainly.

As soon as the words fell, the little Qilin seemed to understand and nodded vigorously.

"You can't destroy the house even if you are hungry in the future, okay?" Chu Xing continued to teach.

"Yo." The little Qilin lowered his head and responded aggrievedly.

"Master, you see it has realized its mistake, so please forgive it this time." Chu Xing turned around and looked at her with a smile on his face.

Qi Shunan snorted coldly, crossed her arms over her chest, and stared at the little Qilin with lingering anger, saying unhappily:

"Hmph, don't let it step into my yard again."

Chu Xing nodded repeatedly and left with Xiao Qilin and Dai Bao.

……

"YoYo--"

As soon as they returned to the courtyard, the little Qilin rubbed Chu Xing with its big head, and then raised its front paws to point at its belly.

Chu Xing turned around, looked at it unhappily and said:

"Didn't you just eat all the flowers and plants in the yard?"

The little Qilin looked at him aggrievedly and whimpered softly.

Chu Xing sighed helplessly, took out a few spiritual fruits from his storage bag and stuffed them into its mouth. "Eat a few fruits first to fill your stomach. I'll go to the animal hall later to buy you some spiritual animal feed."

The animal hall sells special spirit animal feed, which is made by mixing some spirit meat and spirit plants.

In the past, when Daibao was hungry, he would go find food by himself, and he didn’t have to worry about anything at all.

Judging from how much this thing eats, the spiritual beast feed alone would probably be a huge expense.

If I had known this earlier, I would have asked Jiang Lihuo for some food money for it...

Now that she has left, based on his understanding of this woman, even if he pays for it first, she will never be able to give it to him later.

Not only that, in order for it to grow normally, it needs to be fed more than a dozen beast spirit pills every day, which costs another four to five thousand spirit stones per month.

I hope Xiaoli can bring back more spirit stones when he comes back.

Otherwise, we will have no choice but to let this guy follow Daibao to Danyun Valley to hunt in the wild!
