The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 523: Chapter 522: Spatial Changes

After Yiyi entered the space, she discovered that there were indeed changes inside.

Beside the Little Green Fruit tree, there was now an additional spring, and next to the spring, there was an additional... withered tree.

Yiyi walked around the withered tree, her brows slightly furrowed. She really couldn’t figure out what use the withered tree had. Could it be... she needs to find a way to rejuvenate it?

Glancing at the nearby spring, Yiyi couldn’t help but think about using the spring water to water the withered tree.

Thinking of it, she did just that. After watering, Yiyi carefully observed the tree, seeing no change at all. So, she didn’t bother to look further. She couldn’t resist taking a sip of the spring water, hoping it might have some heaven-defying abilities, like cleansing and renewing one’s body, but in the end, she proved to herself that she was overthinking it. The spring water was simply a bit tastier and more refreshing than usual, but nothing else.

She shook her head, stopped researching it further, exited the space quickly, and went to sleep.

The next morning, Gu Tingyu came over early.

Seeing Gu Tingyu arrive, Ding Yuejun quickly greeted him, "Tingyu, sit down for a bit. Breakfast will be ready soon. I’ll go and call Yiyi to get up."

Gu Tingyu hurriedly stopped Ding Yuejun, saying, "Mom, don’t wake Yiyi. Let her sleep a little longer. She’s undoubtedly tired from the past few days; let her rest."

Having heard that, Ding Yuejun no longer insisted on waking her daughter.

Ever since her daughter went missing, she had been worried and afraid. Now that Yiyi was finally back, she naturally hoped her daughter could have a good rest, "Okay then, let’s call her for breakfast when she wakes up."

However, remembering there’s another person at home, Ding Yuejun stood up again, saying, "I’ll go see if Xiao Fu is awake. If he is, I’ll call him over to eat breakfast."

"Are you talking about me?"

As soon as Ding Yuejun said this, Fu Yun’s voice came from the doorway.

Seeing Fu Yun coming in through the main door, Ding Yuejun couldn’t help but ask, "Xiao Fu, where did you go so early?"

"I just got back from morning exercise."

Hearing this, Ding Yuejun nodded, then noticing his sweating head, she said, "Then go wash your face first, and then quickly come over for breakfast."

Fu Yun nodded and returned to the guest courtyard.

Watching Fu Yun’s distant figure, Ding Yuejun looked at Gu Tingyu and asked, "Tingyu, what do you think... what is the Divine Medicine Sect actually like, and why did Yiyi inexplicably become their Holy Daughter? Will there be any trouble with that in the future?"

Gu Tingyu didn’t know much about the Divine Medicine Sect.

"Mom, I specifically checked last night and found that the Divine Medicine Sect does exist. It’s an extremely ancient sect, and the head doctor beside its top leader is indeed from the Divine Medicine Sect. As far as it appears, the sect should be one that studies medical skills, so there shouldn’t be any trouble."

These were the pieces of information he found from overnight research, but he couldn’t get more detailed data.

Hearing Gu Tingyu’s words, Ding Yuejun felt a bit relieved.

"If that’s the case, the Divine Medicine Sect sounds like a good sect, and since Yiyi happens to study Chinese medicine, gaining knowledge from them would benefit her greatly."

Although she didn’t know how skilled this Doctor Ge was, working beside the top leader meant his skills should be top-notch. Xiao Fu had mentioned last night that Doctor Ge’s medical skills were just average among them; imagine how powerful the truly skilled ones would be.

While they were speaking, Fu Yun finished washing and came over, so they stopped discussing it further, and later Old Master Ding also came to the dining hall.

But Fu Yun noticed Yiyi wasn’t there yet, so he hadn’t taken his seat.

"Xiao Fu, sit down to eat."

"The Holy Daughter hasn’t arrived."

Initially, Ding Yuejun didn’t react immediately, but she quickly realized Fu Yun referred to Yiyi as the Holy Daughter. She hurriedly said, "It’s okay; we’ll start eating. When Yiyi wakes up, she’ll come for breakfast."

No matter what Ding Yuejun said, Fu Yun refused to sit.

Seeing Fu Yun’s insistence, Ding Yuejun stood up and said, "I’ll go and call Yiyi to get up."

"No need; it’s fine for the Holy Daughter to come over on her own."

However, Ding Yuejun paid no heed to Fu Yun’s words and quickly went to call Yiyi. Fortunately, Yiyi was already up, had washed her face, and came over.

"Good morning, Holy Daughter."

Seeing Fu Yun’s respectful manner, Yiyi felt uncomfortable, and she quickly waved her hand to say, "Don’t be like this; sit down quickly and eat breakfast."

Hearing Yiyi say this, Fu Yun finally took a seat.

After breakfast, Gu Tingyu started chatting with Yiyi.

Fu Yun opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn’t say anything and quietly waited on the side.

Seeing this, Ding Yuejun said, "Xiao Fu, are you free today? Maybe go shopping for some clothes later. I can ask Tingyu to go with you."

Fu Yun was wearing a loose Taoist robe; although it looked nice, it was inconvenient for movement. So Ding Yuejun thought of buying him clothes. The Divine Medicine Sect had helped them this time, otherwise, they wouldn’t have escaped from that old poison master’s grasp so easily.

However, Fu Yun rejected her offer directly.

"No need, I have enough clothes to wear."

Seeing that Fu Yun ignored her suggestion, Ding Yuejun stopped insisting and waited for some free time to discuss the matter with her daughter.

Upon hearing this, Yiyi couldn’t help but laugh, "Mom, perhaps this is how the Divine Medicine Sect operates. Let’s skip buying clothes."

"Perhaps you’re right. I didn’t think much about it before and thoughtlessly wanted to buy clothes for him. Oh well, I shouldn’t do that next time."

Upon hearing this, Yiyi laughed, "You were thinking of others, which is why you were so considerate."

In the end, Yiyi mentioned Huang Yanquan.

"Mom, this time Mr. Huang really helped a lot. Let’s invite him for a nice meal sometime."

"Yes, I was thinking the same." Ever since learning of Huang Yanquan’s deeds, Ding Yuejun had planned for this, and at the same time she wanted to find out if the person who had gotten into trouble while following Yiyi had any family. If so, she’d like to offer some compensation.

Therefore, upon seeing Huang Yanquan, she inquired about it.

Huang Yanquan replied directly, "You don’t have to worry about that; I’ve taken care of everything for his family. His sacrifice will not be in vain."

"Actually, I could..."

But before Ding Yuejun could finish her sentence, Huang Yanquan interrupted her.

"Yue Jun, you truly don’t need to worry about this. Since he’s one of my people, how could I possibly neglect him?"

Seeing Huang Yanquan’s reassurance, Ding Yuejun didn’t press further and instead talked about the meal invitation.

Upon hearing that Ding Yuejun wanted to invite him for a meal, Huang Yanquan readily agreed, "Sure, when is it?"
