What’s the need to talk about money between us? To put it bluntly, do I look like someone who lacks money?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Wanbao’s face was filled with sincerity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing reluctantly let go of the hand on his Storage Bag, honestly at a loss of how to thank him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you ever need anything in the future, just let me know!\" Zhou Qing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Wanbao finally smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After chatting for a while, seeing people waiting outside to deliver things and some matters that needed Zhang Wanbao’s decision, Zhou Qing had to say goodbye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once outside, Li Shitao casually asked, \"Why didn’t your sharp-tongued Yan come?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing was about to respond but then had a sudden thought and sighed, \"He got injured.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Li Shitao’s previously calm face suddenly showed worry as she instinctively asked, \"How did he get injured? When did this happen?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon realizing her lapse, Li Shitao stubbornly added, \"He deserved it, being so slippery.\" Cynical as she acted, her concern was evident to Zhou Qing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Tao’s contradictory demeanor, Zhou Qing couldn’t help but laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two would argue the moment they met, yet they were the people who knew each other the longest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to Yan, before joining the Taiqing Sect, he pretended to be a Daoist to exorcise evil spirits, thus meeting Li Shitao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had come a long way together, teasing and caring for each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Zhou Qing laughed and said, \"Tao, I was joking. He’s fine, just went out to help my senior brother. He should be back in a few days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Shitao, suddenly angry, took a step forward to hit Zhou Qing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The motion causing her chest to heave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She scolded, \"Trying to get beaten up, aren’t you? Anyway, whether he’s hurt or not doesn’t concern me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite her words, Zhou Qing clearly saw the relief flash in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing then laughed and quickly escaped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back at his academy’s Cave Mansion, Zhou Qing fed his old hen some Spirit Stones, then eagerly began searching through the jade slip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sheer volume of content was overwhelming. It took him a whole day, even with his mid-stage Divinity Transformation Divine Sense, to finally find some clues about the Spiritual Soil.\u003C\u002Fp>",993,"2026-06-09T06:34:10.954Z",1,"novelbin.me","f581c113668e3bfbaa61a8f09dbd4b101f6f05ad5696ae86585d2aeab03ea185","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-816","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-815",1176,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-cover.jpg"]
