“Tingting, why don’t you look? He is so good-looking!”

Zhou Hua pointed to the small boat not far away from them and tugged at Tingting’s hand.

“I’m not interested in boys! They’re too immature,” said Tingting as she shook her head.

“Fine!”

Zhou Hua withdrew her fingers.

She thought that such a beautiful landscape and a handsome guy would surely make Tingting happy.

But it turned out that Tingting wasn’t interested in him at all. So what kind of man would Tinging prefer?

Was it possible that she preferred elders like the master?

It seemed that Tingting liked to act like a spoiled child in the master’s arms.

Too immature?

What did that mean?

Thinking of this, Zhou Hua suddenly had an idea.

“Tingting, look, there’s an old man over there. He’s very good looking!”

“A Hua, what are you doing?”

Chu Qing glared at Zhou Hua and said.

Zhou Hua shrank away and stuck out her tongue.

The boat was getting closer and closer to theirs.

Chu Qing stared at the boat and frowned.

Just as A Hua was talking about boat and the handsome man, they came over.

Coincidence?

Chu Qing walked towards their boatman and muttered a few words in his ear.

The boat began to wander aimlessly around the Green Willow Lake.

But the boat behind just followed them.

Chu Qing let out a breath.

“Here comes another group of playboys,” she thought to herself.

Even though he was good-looking, he was still a dissipated playboy.

Soon his boat approached the girls’. “May I ask where are you ladies from?”

The handsome young man on the boat bowed towards Chu Qing with his hands clasped together.

Out of the three girls, Chu Qing was the only one who looked a little more mature.

“From wherever we come from!”

Chu Qing rolled her eyes.

Since she could guess what his purpose was, she wasn’t going to treat him with hospitality.

“Uh…”

The young man froze for a moment.

He had initially thought that being a young and handsome guy like him, the girls would at least reveal a bit of information out of politeness, even if he wasn’t their type.

But he wasn’t expecting a response like that!

Was there something he had done wrong?

Or maybe he was just not the girls’ type at all.

“Ladies, we’ve never seen women as beautiful as you in our Qingmu Sacred Ground. Can you tell me which sacred ground you’re from? I want to visit there some day.”

The young man bowed with his hands again.

He thought that the girls would, at the very least, accept this compliment.

He said so with confidence.

Zhou Hua heard his compliment, then tugged at Chu Qing.

Obviously, Zhou Hua heard what he said.

But Tingting pretended not to hear it. She wasn’t interested in men at all.

“Tell me, what are your intentions?”

Chu Qing stared at the young man pointedly.

“Uh…”

“Since you don’t want to tell us your intetnions, we’ll just leave.”

“Hey! Where are you girls from?”

The young man looked at the back of the girls’ boat and tried to ask for the last time.

However, the girls on the boat didn’t even turn back to look at him. The boat just rowed away, leaving a trail of ripples behind it.

Should he go and chase after them?

That would be so embarrassing.

It seemed that the girls simply didn’t like being accosted by him.

Looking at the back of the boat, he hesitated for a long time before realizing that he had no other choice but to give up.

“Am I so unattractive? However, those chicks look really good. It seems that they’re not from Zhongzhou.”

The young man had to turn back.

Although he didn’t succeed in chatting up with the girls, he nevertheless reported the information he had observed to Feng Xuan.

“They’re from Nanzhou? It’s possible!”

“Fourth Master, we don’t have such beautiful girls in Zhongzhou. In these two days, I have also investigated all geniuses in the seven sacred grounds. There is no such a girl who is a half-step Perfected Person under thirty years old.”

“What about the other clans? How about the other scared grounds?”

A smile appeared on Feng Xuan’s face.

As long as they were not disciples of a sacred ground, he wouldn’t be afraid of offending them.

But on the safe side, he had better investigate further.

“We don’t have enough time to find out. We haven’t received information about the new sacred ground known as Xiamu Sacred Ground.”

“You guys help me to carry out the investigations in Nanzhou, and find out if the three girls are from the clans in Nanzhou. Especially the new clans such as Clan Xia and Clan Mu,” Feng Xuan said.

The three girls stayed in the Snow City for three days.

During these three days, they marvelled at the landscapes of the city.

They basically tasted all the local food in the city.

“I still want to go to the snack street!” Zhou Hua said.

She had tasted all the specialties in the restaurants.

She had four meals a day and ordered specialties for each meal.

But she felt that they were not that delicious.

“Tingting, are you coming with us?”

Chu Qing looked at Tingting.

This journey was meant to help Tingting get rid of her psychological trauma and slowly get used to her life.

Chu Qing’s and Zhou Hua’s experience was not the priority.

“If Sister Hua likes it, then let’s go together.”

They left Yiyi Parlor.

At the same time, several young men in the hall got up.

In the Snack Street.

“The food here is very interesting… much more interesting than the food in our Baishan City,” Zhou Hua said.

She had stopped at one of the snack stalls, and didn’t want to move on.

“Baishan City?”

A young man who was following them nodded and made a mental note of this location.

“If A Mu and I had such good food back then, we wouldn’t be this skinny.”

“Ugh! Now we can live a happy life. If A Fei saw us like this, he would be happy in heaven!”

In a courtyard of Clan Wind.

“Independent cultivators?” Feng Xuan asked the two young men reporting to him.

“Yes, I can be sure. They had an extremely difficult life earlier, and then they met a master of some kind who taught them some methods. That’s how they are so powerful today.”

“What about the master? Do you know who he is?”

“No! But they mentioned that the master brought them to a mountain. There were only a few of them in the mountain, no one else. It’s by no means a sacred ground. It not even an ordinary sect or clan.”

Feng Xuan nodded his head.

He was very pleased.

After a few days of inquiring, it was true that other big clans didn’t have such geniuses either.

Since they were not from other clans.

Then they could belong to Clan Wind.

Later that evening, the three girls returned to Yiyi Parlor. But they were stopped by a group of people before they even entered the parlor.

Chu Qing stared at these people and asked, “What’s the matter?”

She glanced at the caravan and was relieved to see Li Mu was still lying there.

She always felt like someone was following and spying on them for the past few days.

Now they had finally shown themselves.

“Are you independent cultivators from Nanzhou?” Feng Xuan asked.

Chu Qing nodded her head. “Yes. What do you all want from us?”

Their power and methods came from Li Mu.

But Li Mu had never revealed to them which sect or clan he came from.

Tingting seemed to know a little bit, but after she became depressed, she rarely took the initiative to talk, so it was not good for them to ask.

“I noticed that you ladies are so young but so talented in your cultivation. So I’m taking the liberty of making friends with you,” Feng Xuan said with a smile on his face. Then, he turned casually to look at Tingting and asked, “And this is?”

“This is my sister!” Chu Qing frowned and carefully examined Feng Xuan with her eyes. For a moment, she was a little confused about the man’s purpose of coming here to stop them.

Just to make friends?

Why didn’t they make friends with others, but only us?

“Good! Good! But it’s such a shame.”

“A shame about what?”

“If this sister has a clan to rely on, with her talents, she would be an expert of Perfected Person now.”

Feng Xuan shook his head.

Chu Qing suddenly understood his purpose.

He wanted to poach Li Mu’s disciples.

“I don’t agree with you on this. My sister is simple-minded, if she gets involved in a clan’s internal fights, I’m afraid she wouldn’t have enough energy to improve her cultivation. In that case, she couldn’t even become a Saint-Level warrior, not to mention being a Perfected Person.”

“You’re totally wrong! A Clan will certainly do their best to cultivate such a genius. With the protection of a clan and ready-made resources, the girl’s future achievements will be unlimited!”

Feng Xuan said.

He looked at Tingting once again.

The more he looked at her, the more satisfied he was.
