Chapter 119: Delicious and Fragrant

The Heavenly Tian Shuyuan's first battle of questioning ended in failure, and the injured He Lingxiu was sent back to her courtyard.

This courtyard naturally couldn't compare to the courtyard where Ji You was favored by the Little Inspector, but it wasn't too small.

There was a jujube tree in the courtyard that was not well maintained, and it was somewhat withered even in early summer.

The atmosphere in the courtyard was extremely bad. All the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan disciples were either squatting or standing, or leaning against door frames, looking at each other without words, their brows furrowed and unable to open.

Wen Zhengxin, Pei Ruyi, Ban Yangshu, and Bai Rulong were in this place, but they were standing in the courtyard far from the room.

Their relationship with He Lingxiu was not good, and even the Zhengxin Fairy had had conflicts with her, but as Heavenly Tian Shuyuan disciples, they were a whole at this moment, and they wouldn't show inappropriate expressions at this juncture.

Ji You walked in from outside the courtyard silently at this time, and sat down with these four people.

"Ji Shidi, the first match of questioning was lost..."

"Hmm, I saw it from afar..."

Ban Yangshu clenched his fists: "Before coming, everyone analyzed that He Lingxiu against Yan Shujing should have been the match with the highest winning rate."

Pei Ruyi nodded: "Not bad, everyone in the academy felt that He Lingxiu would definitely be able to win against Yan Shujing. Taking this match first, even if it were a draw, wouldn't be losing face. I didn't expect to lose, and that Zhuang You seems even stronger..."

Wen Zhengxin murmured after hearing this: "He is in the middle Realm of Merging with the Dao, naturally he should be stronger."

"I don't know how much certainty You Buyu has for tomorrow's battle. If he loses again..."

The conversation between the three ended here, and no one dared to continue, the atmosphere couldn't help but become somewhat oppressive.

Bai Rulong looked at Ji You at this time and said in a low voice: "Brother Ji, I went to find you yesterday. Did Spirit Sword Mountain secretly send people to beat you up?"

Ji You turned to look at him: "When?"

"Someone was guarding above, I didn't dare to walk too close, so I stood in the distance and took a look, listening to the clanging and clattering inside, and there were bursts of painful groans one after another, it sounded miserable."

"Ignorant child, that was clearly refreshing."

"?"

Bai Rulong's eyes were stunned: "Why refreshing?"

Ji You looked up at the sky with a smile: "Delicious and fragrant."

"This is eating something good..."

Ji You withdrew his gaze and looked at him, his bandit heart suddenly clear: "Brother Rulong has been wealthy again these few days? How come you dare to ask anything."

Three sentences make a man spend money for me!

Bai Rulong's tongue stiffened, and he immediately closed his mouth.

Rulong Immortal Emperor lived his life heartlessly, and at this time, finding Ji You to make jokes was also to liven up the atmosphere. He didn't expect that he would almost be robbed before finishing three sentences, so he immediately became honest.

Subsequently, for a period of time, bursts of noisy sounds always rang out in front of the door.

Some disciples from other sects pretended to pass by, peeking into the courtyard with expressions of watching the fun, making everyone's faces even more unbearable.

Because among these people, most were familiar faces seen in the ruins.

Sitting here until the sky turned dark, Ji You stood up and left, and Wen Zhengxin and others also followed him and left.

Seeing this scene, the fellow disciples guarding in front of the room couldn't help but look a few times, but didn't say anything.

If He Lingxiu had won today, seeing Ji You appear at this time, they would definitely talk about his sword forest breakthrough, and You Buyu might even be sarcastic, saying he didn't understand the rules.

But at this time, no one had the heart to put it on his affairs.

Because compared to the failure of the first questioning match, Ji You's sixteen swords in the sword forest, even if it was shameful, was just a small matter, because even if he died in the sword forest, the impact wouldn't be as great as the defeat of a Heavenly Tian Shuyuan direct disciple.

The five people stepped out of the courtyard. At this time, Wang Yue, Fang Linchao, and a group of disciples also followed out.

There was still a questioning battle tomorrow, they still had to go see You Buyu's current state.

Having already lost the first match, the second match must be won, otherwise it would truly become the biggest laughingstock of the early Taiyuan years.

However, as Wang Yue and Fang Linchao and several others walked out the door, they saw Ji You and others who had left the courtyard first stopping on the mountain path, and there was a group of people in front, seemingly encountering them by chance.

Walking in front was Min Cheng, followed by several Questioning Dao Sect disciples, while Ding Yao followed beside several people to accompany them.

"The Heavenly Tian Shuyuan's first match was fought like this, I think the second match doesn't need to be compared. Whether it is saying the sect has changed, or saying the elders at home have passed away, finding an excuse to go down the mountain quickly is better than losing in front of the people of the world tomorrow."

Min Cheng's mouth was like it had been quenched with poison, killing the heart.

His resentment toward the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan all came from Ji You, so these words were also said to Ji You.

That day on the street, in order not to cause extra trouble, he told Ji You about the sword forest, but now it was on Spirit Sword Mountain, surrounded by his own disciples, so naturally he wasn't afraid.

At this moment, Wen Zhengxin and others suddenly had killing intent, and Wang Yue and Fang Linchao also couldn't help but furrow their brows and stop, looking at Ji You, not knowing how he would respond.

Ji You didn't look at Min Cheng, treating him as if he didn't exist, and turned to look at Ding Yao.

"Trouble finding a Quiet Spirit Pill."

"..."

He Lingxiu's 【All Methods Added to Body】 was forcefully broken by Yan Shujing's sword Qi. The injury was not serious, but the spiritual energy in her body was constantly darting around.

Just now in the courtyard, disciples were asking who had a Quiet Spirit Pill to give to He Lingxiu.

But they had never anticipated such a scene, and no one had prepared in advance.

Min Cheng's expression was stunned, and finally he laughed, thinking to himself, you are treating Spirit Sword Mountain as the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan.

However, the next moment, Ding Yao turned and left without a word after furrowing her brows for a long time, which made him somewhat puzzled.

And for some reason, he found that this arrogant person like Yan Shimei Ding didn't dare to look up at him just now, and seemed to have signs of bowing.

In fact, this subconscious reaction was because Ding Yao had been accompanying Ji You and Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi for the past few days, developing the mentality of a maid.

Especially after reporting to the Inspector yesterday that Ji You spent sixteen swords to pass 【Little Heavy Mountain】 but found that the Inspector didn't care at all, she was too lazy to toss.

She only had one thought now, which was to serve Ji You away quickly.

Anyway, it was only one day left, how could she not endure it.

Getting medicine was not a difficult thing, it was better than fetching bath water for him.

Subsequently, the few people brushed past each other, and Wang Yue and Fang Linchao went to You Buyu's courtyard.

At this time, he was surrounded by faint mysterious light, Dao techniques constantly whistling and circulating, having already cultivated for an hour. After hearing the footsteps outside, he opened his eyes and reached out to open the room door.

"Senior Brother You."

"How is Yan Shimei He now?"

Wang Yue followed him out of the courtyard again: "Ding Shijie He was broken in her Dao by a sword in the state of All Methods Added to Body. The injury is fine, but the spiritual energy in her body is constantly darting around, as if in extreme pain."

You Buyu furrowed his brows: "No Quiet Spirit Pill?"

"This kind of medicine is originally rare and not easy to find. The disciples who came with us were not prepared. However, just now, that Ji You went to ask Spirit Sword Mountain's Ding Yao for one."

"Ask Spirit Sword Mountain people for it?"

After Wang Yue finished speaking, he couldn't hold back and let out a light laugh: "Do you know how he asked for it?"

You Buyu raised his eyes: "How?"

"He carried his hands behind his back and furrowed his brows, as if ordering, telling people to bring a Quiet Spirit Pill, as if treating Spirit Sword Mountain as his own home, and treating that Ding Yao as a maid."

"?"

Fang Linchao couldn't help but speak at this time: "Senior Brother You felt very displeased with Ji You before, but now it seems it might be a misunderstanding. This Ji You is afraid... his brain is not good to begin with."

After a series of words that were praising on the surface but mocking in secret, You Buyu's mood was much better.

Wang Yue then said: "Senior Brother You, should we send a disciple to the city to find a Quiet Spirit Pill?"

"You also said, this medicine is not easy to find in the south, and going down the mountain at this time must attract attention. Let Yan Shimei He rest for a few days, she will be fine on her own."

"Isn't Ji You just right? It also saves him from leaving people with gossip in the sword forest."

"This... is indeed a good idea."

After Fang Linchao heard this, he nodded, called over a family disciple named Fang Qing, and told him to go up the mountain to find Ji You.

Subsequently, the three of them walked forward, taking the two to He Lingxiu's courtyard.

At this time, the sunset was all over the sky, and a cool breeze rose in the mountain. You Buyu took Wang Yue and Fang Linchao and stepped into it, and saw Spirit Sword Mountain's Ding Yao in the courtyard, holding a medicine pill and rushing into the room.

The three exchanged glances and followed into the room, and saw that the medicine pill was already in He Lingxiu's hand.

After a Quiet Spirit Pill was swallowed, the aura around her body dissipated with a roar, and the manic spiritual energy in her body quickly calmed down.

Seeing this scene, Wang Yue and Fang Linchao exchanged glances, and finally couldn't help but look at Ding Yao, only to see that the other party was expressionless, her brows deeply furrowed.

They had seen the scene of Ji You asking for the pill just now, which was more like ordering than asking.

But who would have thought that Ding Yao actually took the Quiet Spirit Pill without a word.

You must know that Ding Yao's personality was incomparably arrogant, which they had deeply experienced in the past two days. When she arranged for them to stay, her words were full of sarcasm.

Originally, Spirit Sword Mountain won today. If this Ding Yao didn't mock them a few times with arrogance, it would be considered kindness. How could she be so obedient to fetch the medicine pill.

Just at this time, the previously mentioned Fang Qing returned in a hurry: "Senior Brother, I didn't invite the person."

Fang Linchao looked at He Lingxiu, whose aura had stabilized, and waved his hand: "It's already fine, it doesn't matter if he doesn't come."

"Yes."

"Wait, you should go again, tell him not to go to the sword forest again. Yan Shimei He lost today, Spirit Sword Mountain is already arrogant, don't let him cause extra trouble."

Fang Qing bowed and couldn't help but show difficulty: "Senior Brother, I can't see him."

Fang Linchao said 'hmm', then turned his eyes and asked suspiciously: "What? Can't see him?"

"I was stopped just as I went up the mountain. They said that going further is the Inspector's bedroom of Spirit Sword Mountain, and one cannot enter without invitation."

"How did you walk to the Inspector's bedroom of Spirit Sword Mountain?"

"I only walked to the mountainside, which is still far from there, and the courtyard assigned to Ji Shidi Ji is even further up."

"?"

Ding Yao looked at Fang Linchao at this time and couldn't help but sneer.

Thinking to herself, besides the Inspector's parents and personal maids, you really think Profound Jianfeng is a place anyone can go to high places?

Subsequently, she put away the medicine box, stepped out of the door, and walked toward the mountain of Profound Jianfeng.

Just as she walked to the door, she saw Zhuo Wanqiu holding a roasted sweet potato, eating it with the Little Inspector who 'happened to stroll over'.

And at this time, Ji You was holding a cup of tea and sent it over, and saw the Little Inspector hesitate for a moment, her eyes flashing back and forth, and finally took it and drank a big mouthful.

Subsequently, he retreated again, raking lightly in the furnace with a fire hook.

Ding Yao walked nearby, her brows furrowed: "Why is there a bright red fingerprint on the Inspector's face?"

"Young Master Ji said that the disciples of Profound Jianfeng bullied the disciples of his Heavenly Tian Shuyuan, and he wanted to bully them back, so he pinched it like this."

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi was eating sweet potatoes at this time, her eyes squinted, her expression cold and arrogant.

She heard the whispering of the two, feeling that she had somewhat lost face.

Just when Ding Yao's brows furrowed, she found that Ji You looked up at her, then hooked a smaller sweet potato tail from the charcoal fire and threw it to her.

Ding Yao caught the sweet potato and was stunned for a moment, then learned Zhuo Wanqiu's appearance and leaned against the left door frame, took a bite after peeling the skin.

In fact, her background was the same as Ji You's, and it was also extremely humble.

But fortunately, she was about the same age as the Inspector and was chosen as a personal maid, and since then she had been trying to climb up.

Having eaten fine food for many years, she hadn't tasted this kind of thing for a long time.

At this time, the sunset reached the edge of the mountain, ten thousand colors of clouds splashed in the clouds, and the remaining brilliance bloomed from the mountain top and slowly converged.

"Is it delicious?"

"?"

Ding Yao was slightly stunned and looked at the Inspector, then nodded lightly.

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi raised the corner of her mouth, revealing a slightly proud expression, and forgot about being pinched just now.

Ji You couldn't help but speak at this time: "That Yan Shujing, is she your sister?"

"She is the daughter of the second uncle."

Ji You nodded after peeling the sweet potato: "Wanqiu, I heard someone at the door, you help me go out and see."

Zhuo Wanqiu stood up, pulled Ding Yao and walked out of the courtyard door.

Ding Yao's sweet potato almost fell to the ground, thinking to herself, that person ordered you, why did you pull me along.

At the same time, Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi was chewing sweet potatoes without changing her expression, not knowing what he was going to do again, and saw Ji You move closer, reaching out to pinch the sweet potato she had bitten half of, and took it away.

The Little Inspector watched him grab the sweet potato, her eyes squinted, and saw him hand the peeled sweet potato into her hand.

"You eat too slowly, the one just now is cold, I'll change you for a hot one."

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi held the hot sweet potato and didn't move, her eyes instead sending out a trace of sharpness: "You are not allowed to eat what I have eaten."

Ji You looked at her and was slightly stunned: "How could you think of me like this?"

"You just tricked me into drinking water with your teacup."

"Tsk, you really see people accurately..."

Ji You peeled the cold sweet potato: "You can't waste food. Do you know that back in Yuyang County, this red-fleshed sweet potato was hard to see even during the New Year."

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi watched him take a bite of the sweet potato she had bitten, her cold face turning red, and she couldn't help but kick him lightly, and after kicking, she put it into his arms.

At the Wei hour today, Yuan Caiwei replied, saying she didn't see anything, but the handwriting looked messy when she wrote these few lines, which made her somewhat concerned.

Because Ji You said it was a very good thing, and if it were a woman, she would definitely like it, and it was originally left for her to see.

Ji You didn't know what she was imagining, and opened his mouth while eating the sweet potato she had eaten: "Tomorrow, between that Zhuang You and You Buyu, who will win?"

"Zhuang You slashed and defeated the previous direct disciple of Heavenly Jianfeng."
