Chapter 1347

Qingyan doesn't even know how she was brought back to Bai Song Gu by Qiu Baiyi.

With her disappearance, Le Yang Cheng has already become utterly chaotic, like a pot of porridge.

Not only the people of Gōulán, but many male cultivators in Le Yang Cheng, upon hearing that Qingyan had disappeared, all joined the search.

Le Yang Cheng was searched inside and out countless times, yet Qingyan's trace could not be found.

"Damn it, who dares to take Qingyan, the top courtesan?"

"Your Gōulán guards are dead—such a top courtesan, just gone like that?"

"Without Qingyan, how am I supposed to live from now on?"

Le Yang Cheng is in chaos, yet Qingyan herself doesn't realize that at this moment she is already in Qiu Baiyi's Dong Fu.

He casually threw a set of Bai Song Gu steward's robes at her.

"Put it on; from now on, tell outsiders you're my maid."

"Yes."

Qingyan nodded respectfully, not daring to show the slightest resistance.

Quickly she changed into the clothes; as the top courtesan of Le Yang Cheng, even wearing Bai Song Gu's robes, Qingyan remained stunningly beautiful.

Just standing beside Qiu Baiyi made her feel somewhat ashamed; how could starlight compete with the bright moon?

Looking at the time, it was already Fàn diǎn; Qiu Baiyi simply took Qingyan and hurried to the Canteen.

On one hand it's to eat; on the other, to let Qingyan personally see Ye Zhangqing, so as to devise a plan for herself.

"Later, observe Zhangqing well; afterwards, think of a good plan for me."

"Yes, Valley Master, rest assured."

Qingyan also wondered in her heart what kind of man could make Qiu Baiyi love him yet be unable to obtain him—what an extraordinary man.

But when Qiu Baiyi brought her to the Canteen and secretly sent her a mental transmission, Qingyan was still dazed.

"The cook?"

She had thought the person Qiu Baiyi liked might be a great power from some world, or some other lofty existence beyond reach.

But she never imagined that this person was actually just a cook.

Following the direction Qiu Baiyi indicated with her gaze, Qingyan froze.

Before she felt contempt, but upon seeing Ye Zhangqing, Qingyan felt her own shallowness—how handsome!

In appearance and demeanor, Ye Zhangqing is absolutely the most handsome man Qingyan has ever seen.

Judging solely by appearance, Qingyan feels Ye Zhangqing is more than worthy of Qiu Baiyi.

Qingyan covertly observed Ye Zhangqing, while Qiu Baiyi had already come before him and smiled.

"Zhangqing, I'm back."

"Valley Master."

"These are the spirit fruits I brought you; they taste great—I've always liked eating them."

After exchanging greetings, Qiu Baiyi took out a plate of spirit fruits from her Space Ring.

Ye Zhangqing was already used to it; this woman always brings him something each time she comes.

Ye Zhangqing nodded with a calm expression.

"Just put it there."

"Remember to eat it."

"Valley Master, it's time to eat; aren't you eating?"

"I am eating."

This woman just wants to disturb my Dao heart; I, Ye, will never let her have her way.

Qiu Baiyi served herself a bowl of rice; Qingyan followed beside her and also fortunately got a bowl.

Seeing more and more Bai Song Gu disciples, stewards, and elders in the courtyard, Qingyan still felt strange.

What's going on with Bai Song Gu? They're not busy cultivating, yet they're eager to eat— isn't that wasting their cultivation?

Qingyan had no idea that Ye Zhangqing's food was not only outrageously delicious, but also didn't hinder cultivation—in fact it greatly aided it.

As time passed, more and more disciples learned the Canteen's secret.

This left the initial disciples feeling helpless, but with no alternative, they could only eat day by day.

From now on, the meals will probably get harder to eat.

Each disciple, after getting their food, would just find a spot to eat; their eating manner was utterly unlike the outside world's image of Bai Song Gu.

Is this really the fairy maiden the outside world speaks of?

Watching one handsome Bai Song Gu disciple after another devour their food like wolves, oil dripping from their mouths, like starving ghosts reborn.

Qingyan felt that everything she thought she knew about Bai Song Gu had been completely overturned.

Where are the Bai Song Gu disciples who were once refined, gentle, and beautiful like celestial beings?

How come the Bai Song Gu disciples before her eyes now feel like a bunch of crude, foot‑scratching ruffians?

You wouldn't even eat so heartily as a man, would you?

Qingyan was filled with shock and, without thinking, took a bite of the food.

The next second, she too became like the other disciples, her head nearly buried in the bowl.

At this point, what elegance? This food is truly delicious.

Having tasted many delicacies and not being low‑brow, Qingyan now realizes what she used to eat was nothing.

Compared to this simple big‑pot rice in her hand, there's simply no comparison.

Even dogs wouldn't eat it.

Burying her head, Qingyan soon finished a large bowl, yet she still felt somewhat unsatisfied.

At this moment, Qiu Baiyi just brought back another bowl, and she was eating faster than Qingyan.

Seeing Qingyan's face full of aftertaste, Qiu Baiyi said lightly.

"If you want to eat, you can get another bowl, but afterwards there won't be this chance."

Now the disciples can still have two bowls each, and the quicker ones can even have three.

But it won't be long before this treatment ends; by then most disciples probably won't even get one bowl.

After all, each meal only has thirty thousand slots.

Hearing that, Qingyan hurriedly rose and rushed straight to the line.

"Eh, who are you? I've never seen you before."

In the queue for meals, a disciple curiously glanced at Qingyan, having never seen her before, and then asked.

Hearing that, Qingyan gave an embarrassed smile.

"I am the Valley Master's attendant, just arrived."

"The Valley Master's attendant?"

When did the Valley Master get an attendant? But just now Qingyan was indeed with Qiu Baiyi; maybe the Valley Master had a sudden whim, not knowing where he got an attendant from.

Valley Master's affairs are not something these little disciples can manage; besides, it's mealtime now—how could we get distracted?

Like the other disciples, Qingyan again filled a large bowl to the brim, eating it with great comfort.

However, it was still not enough, but the food had run out.

After finishing lunch, Qiu Baiyi gave Ye Zhangqing a deep look, and only after returning to the Dong Fu did she speak.

"How is it? You've seen the person—what do you think?"

Qiu Baiyi must secure Ye Zhangqing, cannot wait a moment, so she immediately turned to Qingyan for advice.

Upon hearing that, Qingyan had completely entered that state; such an extraordinary man, no wonder even Qiu Baiyi is captivated.

If I could help Qiu Baiyi succeed, then I am currently her maid; could I later become a concubine's maid? And keep eating these meals?

Thinking this, Qingyan felt full of vigor; facing Qiu Baiyi's question, she answered without the slightest panic.

"Valley Master, men all like gentle women."
