What he didn't know was that Liu Xuewei did it on purpose, just to show Yang Pengkun how considerate she was.

Most importantly, this tactic was indeed effective on Yang Pengkun. The love in Yang Pengkun's eyes deepened as he looked at Liu Xuewei.

Before the auction ended, Ye Yanqing and his group each bought one or two items.

After the auction ended and the venue was cleared, Chu Xueyin gracefully approached.

Si Nansheng placed the treasure-hunting rat into Wen Luoya's arms and sat facing Chu Xueyin.

"Thank you for the Five Elements Frost Jade, it's very important to me." Chu Xueyin's cold voice came, and Si Nansheng just smiled.

"Consider it a thank you to Sister Xueyin for helping me before."

Chu Xueyin glanced at Si Nansheng, then looked at the others.

Ye Yanqing sat quietly drinking tea, Wen Luoya and Mo Yu huddled together, watching the treasure-hunting rat and whispering to each other, Bai Ye dozed off while holding his sword, and Mo Lie leaned against the window with his arms crossed, head down, seemingly lost in thought.

"I remember you were a direct disciple of the Holy Heaven Sect. Have you left the Holy Heaven Sect?" Chu Xueyin hesitated for a moment before speaking softly.

As soon as he said that, everyone's eyes turned to him.

"Haven't you heard the rumors about me, Sister Xueyin?" Si Nansheng asked her with a smile.

The story of her destroying her spiritual roots and severing her meridians seems to have been widely circulated, right?

"I'm sorry, I was in seclusion the whole time. When I woke up, I heard about the Five Elements Frost Jade and rushed over. I didn't know what had happened." Chu Xueyin said somewhat apologetically.

"What else could happen? It's just that those hypocrites from the Holy Heaven Sect framed my junior sister for injuring Liu Xuewei and wanted to dig out my junior sister's spiritual root and give it to Liu Xuewei."

To prove her innocence, the junior sister made a vow against her inner demons, and was forced to destroy her spiritual root and sever her meridians.

If our master hadn't been there and brought our junior sister back, she would probably be nothing but a pile of bones by now.

Mo Yu's tone was full of disdain for the Holy Heaven Sect. Chu Xueyin was slightly taken aback, as she really hadn't heard of these things.

Didn't Su Heng tell her before that Si Nansheng was very favored in the Holy Heaven Sect?

Why would someone be forced to dig out their spiritual roots?

Is it...

"Su Heng... doesn't he care?" Chu Xueyin was somewhat afraid of her own suspicions.

"He's nothing but a hypocrite. He's the best at digging spiritual roots than my junior sister." Mo Yu rolled his eyes dismissively.

Si Nansheng silently gave Mo Yu a thumbs up; he was truly her perfect mouth double.

"Sister Xueyin has feelings for Su Heng, right?" Si Nansheng smiled as he rested his chin on his hand. Chu Xueyin looked away uncomfortably, not daring to look at Si Nansheng.

Her thoughts were exposed by a child; didn't she have any pride?

"I don't want to say anything more. Sister Xueyin is a good person and is not easily swayed by emotions. I don't want to see you get hurt." Si Nansheng looked at Chu Xueyin with clear eyes, and Chu Xueyin was slightly taken aback.

"Seeing is believing, and no matter what I say, Sister Xueyin probably won't believe me easily, right?"

However, with your abilities, it shouldn't be difficult for you to see the truth, right?

Si Nansheng smiled and handed Chu Xueyin a glass of water. Chu Xueyin held the glass in silence, and Si Nansheng didn't say anything more.

She had said what she needed to say, which could be considered as repaying Chu Xueyin for her help. As for whether Chu Xueyin listened or not, that was not her concern.

"Junior Sister, we should go back now." Ye Yanqing was afraid that Si Nansheng would suddenly say something earth-shattering, so she hurriedly spoke up when she saw that they had finished chatting.

"Okay." Si Nansheng replied sweetly, said goodbye to Chu Xueyin, and left with her senior brothers.

Outside the auction house, Liu Xuewei reluctantly bid farewell to Yang Pengkun before going to find her senior brother.

Unfortunately, while Liu Xuewei was happy, Su Heng didn't give her a warm welcome, but he didn't refuse her suggestion to wander around either.

However, Su Heng seemed somewhat distracted while browsing.

"Senior Brother." Upon hearing the familiar voice, Su Heng turned his head sharply and saw Si Nansheng running towards him from afar. A sense of superiority rose in his heart.

Si Nansheng still acknowledges him as his senior brother.

Before he could speak, Si Nansheng had already run past him like a gust of wind.

His movements froze, and he turned to look. Si Nansheng had already thrown herself into Ye Yanqing's arms, and Ye Yanqing rubbed her head.

"Senior Brother, can we have dinner before going back?" Si Nansheng looked at him expectantly.

"Okay, what would you like to eat? It's on me, Senior Brother." How could Ye Yanqing possibly refuse such a cute junior sister?

"Yay, Senior Brother is the best! Third Senior Brother, hurry up, hurry up, Senior Brother is going to treat us to dinner!" Si Nansheng turned to call Bai Ye, who quickly rushed to Ye Yanqing's side.

"Senior Brother, Junior Sister and I want to eat roast chicken and spirit rice." Bai Ye looked at Ye Yanqing expectantly.

"Okay, eat whatever you want." Ye Yanqing looked helplessly at her gluttonous junior brothers and sisters.

"Senior Brother, the sect's spirit rice is almost gone. Second Senior Brother and I will go buy some. Also, I need to buy some medicinal herbs."

Mo Yu pulled Wen Luoya over and placed the treasure-hunting rat, which Wen Luoya had been holding, into Si Nansheng's arms.

"Alright, Junior Sister likes to eat spirit rice, so buy more. Third Junior Brother, there aren't many spirit beasts left on the back mountain. After you finish eating, Third Junior Brother, remember to catch some more."

"I understand, Senior Brother." Bai Ye nodded and pulled Si Nansheng to go shopping.

Seeing how well Si Nansheng and Ye Yanqing got along, Su Heng's sense of superiority vanished, replaced by a sudden pang of jealousy.

Mingming, before, Si Nansheng was his junior sister and could only call him senior brother.

Even now, she still calls him "senior brother," but the "senior brother" she speaks of is no longer him.

"Senior Brother." Liu Xuewei naturally noticed Su Heng's emotional change and called out.

"What's wrong?" Su Heng came back to his senses and looked down at Liu Xuewei.

"Is Senior Brother blaming me for going to the auction with Senior Brother Yang instead of coming with you?" Liu Xuewei said, tears welling up in her eyes, as if one of them might fall at any moment.

"No, it's getting late, we should go back. I've already told Master about your discovery of the Five Elements Frost Jade. When we get back, Master might have you go into seclusion. Let's go."

Su Heng took the lead and walked out of the city, while Liu Xuewei followed after him, sniffing.

Before leaving, she didn't forget to turn around and glare fiercely at the smiling Si Nansheng.

Si Nansheng naturally sensed the gaze that seemed to want to devour her alive, and knew who harbored malice towards her, so she didn't take it to heart at all.

Feeling exceptionally relaxed, Bai Ye wandered around the various stalls.

Ye Yanqing turned her head and watched Su Heng and Liu Xuewei leave, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.

"Senior Brother, Su Heng's gaze towards Junior Sister is very strange," Mo Lie said softly as he walked to Ye Yanqing's side.

"Maybe he thinks our junior sister is inferior to the current junior sister," Ye Yanqing said calmly. Mo Lie nodded, agreeing with his senior brother's statement.
