My seven female apprentices each have their own ideas

The ancestor of the Ye family was surprisingly cautious. If he had not met the destined protagonist in the original text, he would have really had a chance to refine the fire.

But think about it, it is natural, the Ziwei fire seed is a sacred object in the world of cultivation, and the most important thing is the foundation of the Qin family.

As a force under the Seven Kingdoms of Cangping, the Ye family must be extremely careful now that they have obtained the fire, for fear that the Qin family will find out. Once discovered, the entire nine clans will be implicated.

"Hey, Xiaoxiao, how do you know? Didn't you say before that those medicine boys ran away and never appeared again?" Li Zhizhi looked puzzled.

Qin Xiaoxiao blinked her innocent eyes: "Because I was curious before, I took a sneak peek."

"So that's how it is..." Li Zhizhi seemed to feel that something was wrong, but couldn't put it into words.

Damn it, Xiaoxiao clearly said that we were good friends, but she didn’t even take me with her when she went to peek... I’ve been here for a year and haven’t seen what the spirit boat looks like, but she was able to peek at it in just seven days.

"Yes, yes, yes! I am only responsible for bringing all the medicine boys to the Spirit Boat. I don't know where they are going."

For a moment, Ye Cang was actually somewhat grateful to the girl with wine-red eyes. If she had not testified for him, the two cultivators in front of him would probably not believe him just by his words.

"In that case... let's wait for the Spirit Boat tomorrow!" Feng Yi pinched her chin and thought for a while, "Anyway, Ye Sheng is only at the Condensation Pill level, so we can just kill him after we get to the Cui Bo Lake."

Ye Cang was horrified, his ancestor was a nationally famous Jindan Zhenren, but in their mouths, he seemed nothing special.

Then it seems that the two people in front of me are probably Jindan cultivators, or even Yuandan cultivators.

Then it would be even more impossible for me to escape from them. I could only hope that I could satisfy these two cultivators and let them go...

Thinking of this, Ye Cang whispered: "What you don't know is that there is a fragment of the ancestor's soul guarding the spirit boat. You two are adult cultivators, so I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to blend in with this group of medicine boys."

"How difficult is that?" Feng Yi smiled confidently. Even if she disguised herself as a child, it would be enough with her skills.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Jiang He slapped Ye Cang unconscious with a slap, tied him up tightly with the God-Imprisoning Rope and put him in a corner.

At the same time, he looked at Li Zhizhi, whose face was excited, and smiled slightly: "Zhizhi, long time no see."

"Big brother, big sister!"

Li Zhizhi was so happy that she could no longer contain herself. She didn't care that she was wearing only a thin shirt and hugged Fengyi.

"Hey? Why is this little girl so enthusiastic?" Feng Yi didn't understand and caught the little girl at a loss.

Jiang He smiled knowingly: "She mistook you for Su Su. In the past, Su Su and I rescued her together."

After the two of them entered Danxin Pavilion and saw Li Zhizhi, they had already removed their disguises.

After all, he was going to meet Li Zhizhi anyway, so he might as well reveal his true face early so that the little girl could feel at ease.

As soon as he said this, Li Zhizhi jumped away from Fengyi's arms like a frightened little rabbit: "Ah? Isn't she Sister Susu?"

The little girl pinched her fingers awkwardly, but couldn't help but look at Feng Yi curiously.

"This is Susu's biological sister, Fengyi. They look exactly the same."

Jiang He explained to Li Zhizhi and asked the questions in his heart.

"How did you get to Mengding County? It's a whole state away from Shangqing County."

Li Zhizhi's originally happy face suddenly became depressed, and she pursed her lips:

"I don't know either... There was a sect that said I had a talent for cultivation, so my adoptive parents sent me there to cultivate. But somehow, I ended up in Mengding County."

This little girl actually has a talent for cultivation?

Jiang He glanced at Li Zhizhi. In the past, due to his shallow cultivation, he didn't notice it, but now he can tell at a glance that this girl has a beautiful inner beauty.

But this does not mean that you are a genius in cultivation.

Jiang He reached out his hand, held the little girl's thin wrist in the shy look, and pondered for a moment:

"Fire-loving physique, above-average talent..."

If one were to rank talent from one to ten, with ten being the highest, then his three disciples would undoubtedly have exceeded this upper limit. Feng Yi, who had not received the inheritance, was at seven, and after receiving the inheritance, she was at nine, while this little girl was only at five.

This does not mean that Li Zhizhi has average talent, because Su Su, who did not receive the inheritance, is already a genius that appears once in hundreds of years in Dajin.

But it wouldn't be necessary for the Ye family to go to so much trouble to lure him from Hezhou to Mengding County to be a medicine boy.

Feng Fengyi suddenly asked, "Zhizhi, are you not the only one who was abducted to Mengding County?"

"Well... there seem to be dozens of people traveling with me." Li Zhizhi tilted her head and thought hard.

Feng Yi's expression changed, and she said carefully: "Jiang He, with the power of the Ye family, it is impossible for them to reach out so far and kidnap children with spiritual talents."

Indeed, even if the Ye family is the so-called overlord of Yan State, it is impossible for them to extend their hand to Hezhou, which almost spans hundreds of countries as large as Yan State.

In other words, the Qin family was involved in this matter.

What was the Qin family's intention in secretly ordering their subordinates to search for the children?

Jiang He suddenly looked at the little brown-haired girl who was curled up in the corner of the bed and looked at the others curiously: "Little girl, how did you get abducted here?"

The little brown-haired girl looked very timid, holding onto the corner of the quilt and mumbling:

"My name is Qin Xiaoxiao. I am from Qin. My parents died when I was young. When I was wandering, I was accepted as an apprentice by a Taoist priest who passed by. Then I came here."

Jiang He burst out laughing. This little girl was too nervous. She told him everything about her life story in one go.

He reached out and patted Qin Xiaoxiao's head: "Don't be afraid, I'm Zhizhi's brother, I won't do anything to you."

The little girl tilted her head slightly, a hint of disgust and resistance flashing across her eyes. She did not hide this, and shrank further to the corner of the bed.

Seeing this, the slight doubt in Jiang He's heart disappeared without a trace.

The little girl's reaction was very normal. She was not cunning and could not hide her own thoughts, but she was also normally wary of outsiders.

Without waiting for the little girl to react, he grabbed her wrist. He didn't have the energy to explain things to this strange girl slowly.

"Huh!?" Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes suddenly widened.

"Sure enough, you also have a fire-loving physique, and your talent is similar to Zhizhi's."

Jiang He nodded, and after a quick inspection, he quickly let go of his hand.

The girl's soft skin texture is still in my palm, like warm jade, and the fragrance lingers even after leaving my hand.

This little girl...her skin is much better than Zhizhi's, and is comparable to Jiner's.

Jiang He's throat suddenly felt dry, his heart was moved, and he wanted to slap himself.

Shit! It's fine for Jin'er and Xiao Minxin, but why do you have such thoughts about a strange girl?

The little girl with beautiful burgundy eyes fluttered her eyelashes slightly, her gaze swept across Jiang He's rolling throat, and she pursed her lips imperceptibly, as if with a mocking look.

He said softly, "Big brother, did you find anything?"

This little girl looks timid, but she is actually quite proactive.

I had proactively reminded myself before, and now I had the courage to ask him.

Jiang He met the little girl's curious gaze and smiled gently: "I came here only because I have a grudge against the ancestor of the Ye family. I don't know much about other things."

"Oh - Xiaoxiao knows." The little brown-haired girl withdrew her gaze in disappointment, lowered her face, and fell silent.

Feng Yi's eyes moved slightly, and her intuition told her that Jiang He had discovered something.

But this is really not the place to talk, so I suppressed my curiosity.

Then he hugged Li Zhizhi with a smile on his face: "Zhizhi, who is prettier, Sister Susu or me?"

"Eh?"

Li Zhizhi was at a loss for words because of the outspoken Feng Yi, and besides... weren't these two sisters exactly the same?

She chose the unbiased answer from her heart, "Both sisters are pretty."

Hearing Li Zhizhi's answer, Fengyi was not disappointed, and asked in a deep tone: "Then do you think big brother is handsome?"

Jiang He's face darkened. He knew without thinking what Feng Yi was going to do. He glared at the blonde girl fiercely, but the girl ignored his gaze and even raised her eyebrows at him provocatively.

Li Zhizhi said innocently: "Big brother is so handsome, Zhizhi likes big brother the most!"

After saying that, he smiled foolishly at Jiang He.

She could never forget that it was her elder brother and sister Susu who saved her when she was most desperate.

In fact, in her mind, Sister Susu is prettier, but she is not a stupid child, so she naturally did not say it directly in front of Fengyi.

The girl's unreserved smile also softened Jiang He's heart.

But at such a warm moment, Feng Yi suddenly narrowed her eyes: "Then... if I ask you to marry my elder brother, are you willing?"

"Huh!" Li Zhizhi hurriedly withdrew her smile from Jiang He, her face flushed.

"Eh..." Qin Xiaoxiao smacked her lips imperceptibly, with a look of barely perceptible disgust.

"Sister, what does this mean?" Li Zhizhi looked at Fengyi timidly like a deer.

"Hoo--it's okay, I was just joking."

Fengyi breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from the reactions of Jiang He and Li Zhizhi, she was sure that the two of them really had no relationship.

Although this girl has grown up, her mind is still not open and she doesn't understand love between men and women.

And Jiang He didn't look guilty.

She had previously suspected that Jiang He came for Li Zhizhi, but she had not expected that the Ye family really had some shameful dealings with the Qin family. Now her doubts were dispelled.

Jiang He was really angry: "Feng Yi, don't joke around. What if you scare Zhi Zhi?"

The blonde girl stuck out her tongue in embarrassment: "Hey hey... sorry."

He said sorry, but there was no apology in his expression, instead it sounded as if it was a matter of course.

Seeing Jiang He's face darken and he clenched his fists, the girl straightened up quickly and said seriously, "Jiang He, I was wrong! At worst... I can help you every day in the future!"

help me?

Jiang He suddenly remembered what happened in the morning… Well, it doesn’t seem like practicing with Xiao Minxin every day, after all, he is not a lolita complex.

But Feng Yi helped him...

Jiang He coughed and said, "Then I'll forgive you this time."

"help?"

Li Zhizhi tilted her head in confusion and pulled Qin Xiaoxiao's sleeve, "Xiaoxiao, big brother is so strong, why does he need sister to help him every day? What does he need help every day?"

The brown-haired little girl's eyes became more and more determined, as if she had already figured out who Jiang He was.

But seeing Zhizhi's confused eyes, she blinked and said, "Hey, it should be a small matter. How about Zhizhi also help big brother in the future? That way, we can show our gratitude to you."

Chapter 395 Seizing the Spiritual Fire

"If it's possible... then Zhizhi is willing."

The two little girls huddled together, totally unaware of the hidden meaning in Feng Yi's words, and looked at Jiang He shyly.

Not to mention Jiang He, even Feng Yi felt embarrassed, feeling that she was corrupting the flowers in the world of cultivation.

"Uh...it's just some small things, no need to bother Zhizhi."

Jiang He glanced at Feng Yi. The blonde girl was shyly grabbing her blonde hair and deliberately avoiding his gaze.

He spoke softly and nonsensically, not knowing what the two little girls were shy about...it was clear that they didn't understand anything.

"By the way, where are the big brothers and big sisters from?"

In the room that suddenly became quiet, Qin Xiaoxiao asked curiously with her little face tilted, her cheeks still red.

Although she is not very pretty, Jiang He finds her inexplicably cute.

This little girl seems to be very curious, but children of this age are generally like this.

Jiang He nodded: "We are from Hezhou, and we are from the same hometown as Zhizhi. We came to Yan State to participate in the Cangping Immortal Meeting, and we met Zhizhi by chance. Therefore, we came to investigate in the middle of the night."

"I see..." His explanation made the two little girls nod their heads as if they had understood something, unusually in sync.

"Wow, big brother saved Zhizhi's life again." Li Zhizhi's pretty face was full of gratitude, admiration and trust.

This made the other little girl very dissatisfied: "Huh, Zhizhi, didn't you say that we are going to become alchemists tomorrow? Why did you say that big brother saved you? Isn't this ruining your path to becoming an alchemist?"

Li Zhizhi covered her face with the quilt awkwardly. Xiaoxiao had hinted to her many times before that what was waiting for them tomorrow might not be practicing alchemy, but she kept refutating it.

It was not until the true face of the manager of Danxin Pavilion was revealed, and combined with the attitude of her elder brother, that she realized that what was waiting for them tomorrow was probably not a good thing.

"I didn't know it before..." Li Zhizhi said softly.

Seeing the two little girls talking in low voices and seemingly not affected by the steward, Jiang He felt relieved and closed his eyes to practice.

The time spent in cultivation always flies quickly. In just a blink of an eye, the east turned bright and the manager woke up quietly.
