All the heavens began with Huo Yi

"shut up."

The fourth sister tapped her younger sister on the head, "If you can't speak properly, then shut up. Aren't you afraid your third sister will beat you?"

After disciplining her younger sister, the fourth sister gave Su'er an awkward smile. Her silly little sister had completely exposed her third sister's thoughts; really…

"Oh~" Fifth Sister stuck out her tongue and made a funny face. "Fine, I won't tell you then."

"Didn't you say you wanted to talk about things outside? Go ahead and tell me, there's a lot of boring stuff in the mountains."

To ease the awkwardness caused by Fifth Sister's lack of privacy, Fourth Sister immediately changed the subject, pulling Fifth Sister to sit opposite Suer, looking all ears.

As soon as Suer opened her mouth, she began to tell her stories, a mix of truth and fiction interspersed with anecdotes. At first, the fourth sister, who was only trying to ease the awkwardness, became more and more engrossed in listening, and would occasionally burst into silvery laughter because of Suer's stories.

Four hours had passed since the lecture began, and just as Su'er was getting parched, a graceful woman dressed in a bright green gauze dress ran in from outside the door.

The fifth sister greeted her sweetly, "Second sister."

"Why are you in such a hurry?" The fourth sister looked like she was watching a good show; it was rare to see her second sister so eager.

The second sister pulled her fourth and fifth sisters away from Su'er and said, "You two are actually having fun here. It's rare to see the fourth sister so happy. It seems the third sister has a good eye for men."

And why didn't Fifth Sister go help Third Sister today? Did you let Fourth Sister sneak around eating? Hahaha.

After the second sister finished speaking, seeing the look on her fourth brother's face, she stopped joking and said, "Never mind, I got the news from my uncle."

"My mother's old friends from Wushan will be sending gifts for the flower banquet in a couple of days. I need to inform everyone, both superiors and inferiors, so as not to be impolite."

As the second sister spoke, she glanced in Su'er's direction and said, "When will the third sister reveal our identities? Those two pig-headed guys from Wushan will definitely be there again. It would be better if we were forced to meet them."

"This..." Fourth Sister swallowed hard, also worried for Third Sister, but she had other thoughts in her mind, but they were too vague for her to understand.

“I know my third sister’s personality. She gets all hesitant and indecisive when something happens. Oh well, I’ll just lay it all out for her.” The second sister said, thinking of going to explain their family’s situation to Su Er.

"Are you crazy?" The fourth sister grabbed the second sister's arm. "Aren't you afraid of scaring someone to death by being so direct?"

As the fourth sister spoke, she seemed reluctant to let Su'er know that they were monsters.

“I think it’s great. Didn’t Third Sister say he’s not afraid of monsters?” Fifth Sister asked.

“Let go. If he runs away in fear, it will prove that this man is unreliable, which will be a favor to Third Sister.” After saying that, Second Sister broke free from Fourth Sister’s grip on her arm.

The fourth sister exclaimed "Hey!" and sped up to catch up with the second sister. The fifth sister also looked delighted and followed along, as if watching a show.

"Young master! I am the second daughter of the mistress of the Zhu family." The second sister stepped forward and curtsied.

"Oh, greetings, Second Madam." Su'er stood up and returned the greeting with a smile, saying, "May I ask what brings you here, Second Madam?"

"Do you know what kind of women are in my courtyard?" the second sister asked, her face serious. She thought that if the man was frightened, she would have someone send him away.

“A fairy, I know, it should be a spider.” Su’er looked at her second sister and replied, “The spider I saw before I collapsed that day was dark green. If we can tell by the color of her clothes, it should be Fourth Sister. Am I right?”

I am still waiting for you ladies to tell me the truth, so that I can thank Fourth Lady for her kindness.

Fourth Miss, I am deeply grateful for what happened that day. If you would like to hear some interesting stories, please feel free to ask me.

"!" Fourth Sister was shocked when she heard Su Er's words. After a moment, she said loudly, "I didn't expect you to be so clever. Since you say so, you can't refuse me when I come to you in the future."

"You guessed it, you're quite clever. But we're all monsters, aren't you afraid we'll eat you?" The second sister praised him before continuing to ask, she was now somewhat satisfied with Su'er.

Having a brain and intelligence is very important to her. She can't leave Pansiling. If a smart man could marry into the Zhu family, her family's business could expand even further.

Suer smiled upon hearing this and said, "If we wanted to eat, we would have eaten long ago. Why wait until now? All of you ladies are like fairies, and I know you are all kind-hearted."

(Sul: Flattery will get you everywhere! You little vixen, I can handle you.)

"I dare not call myself a fairy nun. There will be a banquet at home in a couple of days. At that time, the real fairy nuns in heaven, the mountain fairies, and the uncles and masters in the temple will all come to offer their congratulations. You should also come to the birthday celebration! It will be good for Mother to meet you."

The second sister's smile widened after Su Er praised her, hoping that this sweet-talking scholar would say some auspicious words at the banquet to make her mother happy.

"It is my wish, but I dare not ask you."

Second Sister nodded upon hearing Su'er's words and said to Fourth Sister beside her, "Fourth Sister, take him for a walk in the cave so he doesn't get lost on the day. After all, we won't be able to take care of him when the distinguished guests arrive at Wushan."

Fifth Sister, go and call Eldest Sister and Third Sister to help out, and while you're at it, go and tell Mother.

The fifth sister, having received her elder sister's order, was reluctant to part with the story and adventure told by Suer, but had no other choice but to obediently carry out the task.

"Let's go, Second Sister has things to do. In a couple of days, Lanxi Village will be completely cleaned up and look brand new. Let me take you to the cave first, so you can get familiar with the way."

Fourth Sister tugged at Su'er's sleeve and led her into the backyard.

Suer was also grateful to the messenger from Wushan; otherwise, it would have taken him some time to infiltrate the spider demons so quickly.

After all, if he acted too enthusiastically and ingratiatingly, it would only arouse the suspicion of these fairies.

Fourth Sister led Su'er to the large pit in the backyard, grabbed Su'er and threw her directly into the pit, and then Fourth Sister immediately jumped in as well.

Below the pit was a large spider web, and Su Er was currently lying on this large web, which resembled a trampoline.

Fourth Sister walked on the spider web as if it were flat ground, and pulled up Suer who was stuck. "This is how we all went down into the cave. If you want to enter the Spider Cave in the future, just do it this way."

There are stone spider minions on both sides. I'll give the order later: if you accidentally get stuck, just call out a couple of times, and they'll obediently come to your rescue.

"Thank you."

Suer nodded in agreement, and Fourth Sister pulled Suer down into the cave. As Suer followed Fourth Sister, his view gradually opened up.

"This is where those little demons usually rest. This is the uppermost level of the Spider Cave," Fourth Sister said, pointing to some houses and courtyard walls inside the cave.

"This place is truly a hidden gem; there are so many rooms here."

Su'er praised repeatedly, which made the fourth sister's lips curl up slightly. She knew her own family's affairs and had visited her master's Taoist temple, so she naturally felt that her own Spider Cave was a bit dark.

"Below that is the Shattered Jade Pool. Behind the Shattered Jade Pool is a large courtyard, which is the guest room prepared for regular guests in the cave. Sometimes when I'm feeling lazy, I'll make do with one of those rooms for the night."

"You'll be sleeping here tonight. The rooms upstairs are for the Daoist disciples that my master brings. Those Daoist priests are very picky and don't want to rest inside the cave," Fourth Sister said, pointing to a clear pool in the distance below.

"Let's go again." Fourth Sister pulled Suer to a fork in the road and pointed to the left fork, saying, "There's a beetle spirit inside. It's arrogant and I just put it in solitary confinement today. As long as you don't go in, you'll be safe."

As she spoke, Fourth Sister led Su'er deeper into the cave. After crossing the Flower Bridge, Fourth Sister pointed to a room and said, "This is the room where I usually keep my things. There is a strange insect in the cave behind the door of that room. Remember these two places and don't go in."

"Why are there spider webs in front of every door?" Suer asked, pointing to the large patch of spider webs in front of her fourth sister's courtyard. The spider webs looked extremely old.

After hearing Su'er's words, Fourth Sister waved her sleeve and cleaned up the spider web in front of her house, replying, "The stone spiders in this cave love to spin silk. For the sake of our kind, we won't hold it against them. Just be careful in the future, Young Master Su."
