Chapter 54: Setting Off for Yonghang, the Second Aunt Accompanies Us! (Please Follow!)
Immediately.
Ning Mu gently patted Ning Xiaoxiu's little face, looked into her eyes, and smiled warmly: "Don't cry, we will just stay at your house for the time being."
There are certainly risks.
But there are also safeguards.
After all, there is Liu Qingmei, this Grandmaster.
And who knows, the pretty nun Liuli might also find an excuse to head to Yonghang and live together.
A Half-step Divine Origin Realm expert is powerful enough, right!
If one is still afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind, then it would be better to just find a turtle shell and hide inside like a tortoise! Just as he was thinking this.
The main person arrived.
Suddenly, a slender figure in plain clothes appeared at the doorway.
Before the person had even entered the door, the voice had already drifted in.
"Little friend, I heard from the servants in the manor that you are going to Yonghang?"
"It just so happens that this nun also has unfinished business in Yonghang; may I accompany you on the journey?"
Liuli flicked her Whisk, her deep eyes containing a hint of anticipation as she looked expectantly at Ning Mu.
Ning Mu could not help but laugh.
This really is... speak of Cao Cao and Cao Cao arrives.
No, this world has no Cao Aman.
There is only himself.
It should be, speak of Liuli and Liuli arrives!
Seeing Ning Mu laugh, Liuli froze for a moment, then said with some displeasure: "If you are unwilling, little friend, just say so. At worst, this nun will use her Lightness Skill; I won't arrive any later than you!"
Liuli glared at Ning Mu with a touch of feigned arrogance.
For those who practice cultivation, horses are not the only way to travel.
There are those skilled in beast taming who can train powerful, travel-ready spirit beasts into mounts, then sell them at high prices to nobles, wealthy families, or underworld bosses.
There are also those who specialize in practicing Lightness Skill, for whom traveling a thousand miles in a day is no difficult task.
Even, when cultivation reaches its peak, one can reverse the laws, Shrink Ground to an Inch, and displace in an instant.
Seeing Liuli in this state, Ning Mu hurriedly waved his hands and smiled: "Senior is joking. It is this junior's great honor to travel with you; how could I be unwilling?"
"Good, then it's settled. This nun will wait for you to set off."
Liuli flicked her Whisk and nodded with satisfaction.
However, before leaving, she glanced at Ning Mu, shook her head at his lack of self-improvement, and left behind a remark that made Ning Mu, Chunzhi, and Xia Chan extremely embarrassed, and made Ning Xiaoxiu wish she could disappear.
"Little friend, next time you receive guests, do not leave your front gate wide open, and treat women as food..."
A caravan, grand and imposing, drove through Jinshui Town and set off in the direction of Yonghang.
In the caravan, there were dozens of people riding tall horses, as well as several passenger carriages and cargo wagons.
Ning Mu spent ten points of Cultivation Points to fully charge the Explosive Modification Jumping Bead.
Then, as a punishment, he stuffed it into Ning Xiaoxiu's hands.
As for himself, he rode on horseback.
Ning Xiaoxiu rode in the same carriage as the sisters Yuhuan and Yuzan.
Chunzhi, Xia Chan, and Liu Qingmei's subordinates Qiuxiang and Dongxue also rode horses; they were all people with Cultivation Points.
Lao Zhangtou also moved to Yonghang together with them.
Compared to the silent and cold Qiuxiang and Dongxue, the sisters Chunzhi and Xia Chan appeared more lively and charming.
"Sister, once we reach Yonghang, you will be responsible for taking care of the young master's daily life, meals, and the household money, and I will be responsible for running errands for the young master, how about that?"
Xia Chan's beautiful eyes were like flowers, and she looked at her sister Chunzhi with a delicate, dripping charm as she discussed it. Chunzhi was somewhat moved; she was indeed not as active and bold as her sister, but rather possessed an introverted and meticulous nature.
This arrangement could not be more suitable.
However, due to her personality, she still said softly: "We must still listen to the young master's arrangements..."
"That goes without saying. We now share our glory with the young master, so we must listen to his arrangements to be proper. But we can also tell the young master our own thoughts; the young master isn't some stubborn old fossil~"
Xia Chan replied.
At this moment.
The reticent sisters Qiuxiang and Dongxue had a hint of jealousy in their eyes and looked simultaneously at the high-spirited Xia Chan.
"Sister Xia Chan, you and Sister Chunzhi are becoming more and more radiant. Tell the truth, have you already been... hehehe!" Qiuxiang teased, her tone carrying a different meaning.
They had originally been close friends for many years, serving side-by-side beside the Lady Liu Qingmei.
But now, Chunzhi and Xia Chan had become the young master's maids, and it was rumored they had even shared his bed! Yet the two of them were still living the same unchanging life.
It wasn't that they were complaining about anything.
After all, serving beside the Lady was already lucky enough! But people, who doesn't have a bit of jealousy at work? Seeing the sisters Chunzhi and Xia Chan becoming more lively and radiant, their little lives becoming more and more comfortable, and even receiving the young master's favor every day, it was inevitable that jealousy would arise in their hearts.
They were all long-time veteran maids; who wouldn't hope to change their way of life in this lifetime? Chunzhi's face turned red instantly, her eyes shimmering.
Xia Chan, however, was not intimidated in the slightest. She lifted her little head and said bluntly: "That is natural. The young master cherishes us sisters. What, are you envious, Sister Qiuxiang?"
"But let me tell you, the young master just loves twin sisters. Why don't you ask the Lady to have you transferred to our side? Hehehe..."
Qiuxiang's face turned red instantly.
And Dongxue, true to her name, had a cold and aloof expression.
Facing Xia Chan's teasing, she only frowned slightly and did not reply, though her cold and beautiful face still flushed red.
After all, she was a pure and chaste person; how could she compare to the veteran 'driver' who had been personally trained by Ning Mu? Inside the carriage.
"Mmm..."
Suddenly.
Ning Xiaoxiu clutched her small belly, her body slightly hunched, her face a deep, blood-red, and her watery almond eyes hazy and glistening.
"Xiaoxiu, what's wrong?"
Ning Xiaoxiu's strange behavior immediately drew the attention of the sisters Yuhuan and Yuzan.
"Mmm... I, I'm fine, my stomach just hurts a little!" Ning Xiaoxiu was incredibly embarrassed, but not daring to speak clearly, she could only cover her stomach and find an excuse.
"Should I go call the Young Master?"
Yuhuan immediately became anxious.
As a maid of Qiyun Tower, she knew all too well that although this Demonic Path enchantress brought back by the Young Master had been turned into a Female Slave, she had been implanted with a Demon Seed Blood Lotus by people of the Demonic Path, so she often suffered from abdominal pain.
"No need! Th-thank you, Sister Yuhuan... It's an old ailment, no need... hiss, no need to trouble the Young Master, it will pass in a moment!" Ning Xiaoxiu frowned tightly, speaking with difficulty.
Her small face was red as blood, though it was unclear if this was due to the surge of blood caused by the abdominal pain, or something else.
She had a faint feeling that it was about to jump out.
The Master is just too shameless.
How could he play like this!
At first, she had been a little curious about what that little thing could do.
Now, she truly wanted to kill her own curiosity!...
【Notification: Congratulations to the Host for completing Task Two, traveling to Yonghang with your Binding Companion; rewarding the Host with 500 Cultivation Points, 100 Heroic Couple Points, Black Red Crystal Foot-protecting High Heels x1, and 10 points of Ning Mu's affection...】
【Notification: Number One Sub-System owner Liu Qingmei has completed Task Two, feeding back task rewards to the Main System Host; you have gained 100 Cultivation Points, Spirit Firmament Wind-riding Carriage x1, and 2% Loyalty from Liu Qingmei...】
Ning Mu rode his horse, following behind Liu Qingmei.
Divine Nun Liuli, as before, sat upright on top of a cargo wagon, meditating without moving a muscle.
And by Liu Qingmei's side, there was a jade-like beauty who had never appeared before, riding a white horse and traveling alongside her.
