Yu Mi was a mix of pain and anger, tears brimming in her eyes.
She really wanted to kick Bao Gu away, but feared that in doing so, she might hurt herself as well.
In a fit of indignant rage, she grabbed Bao Gu’s wrist and twisted it hard!
Bao Gu let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered, her hands weakly released their grip, and she knelt on the ground in pain.
Yu Mi quickly covered her chest, which had been painfully grabbed, and cursed through her tear-blurred eyes, “You bastard Bao Gu, you little jerk, what did I ever owe you in my past life?”
Bao Gu’s wrist was in so much pain and numbness that she couldn’t control its trembling.
Kneeling on the ground, she pursed her lips in grievance, her lips trembling uncontrollably as tears streamed down her face.
After a long while, Bao Gu cried out with a hoarse voice, “Senior sister, I was drowning, and you still hit me…”
Zi Yunshu, who was soaking in the creek, laughed so hard that she shook all over, desperately slapping the water.
She was nearly dying of laughter from the antics of these two sisters.
Yu Mi, clutching her painfully grabbed chest, glared at Bao Gu and yelled, “I hit you? I hit you? I really want to smack you to death! Little Martial Aunt, and you’re still laughing!”
Zi Yunshu made an “eh” sound, innocently saying, “Isn’t it enough that you two sisters are crying? Do you really want me to join in the commotion?”
Soaking in the water, she leisurely said, “That’s why I say, Yu Mi, being too voluptuous isn’t always a good thing.”
She thought about how Bao Gu really knew where to grab, and couldn’t help but burst into laughter again.
She asked, “Bao Gu, what were you thinking, grabbing your senior sister there!”
Bao Gu, not understanding, looked towards Zi Yunshu with tearful eyes, sobbing her complaint, “Little Martial Aunt, I was drowning, and senior sister still hit me.”
Zi Yunshu bit her lip to hold back her laughter and said, “I saw it.”
Hearing that Zi Yunshu wasn’t taking her side, Bao Gu immediately complained, “Little Martial Aunt, you’re being partial.”
Zi Yunshu: “……”
Yu Mi raised her fist and knocked it hard on Bao Gu’s head, cursing, “You should have drowned! Ouch!”
It hurt her so much.
She bent down to check the places she had been grabbed, her chest was red, and the tips of her breasts had tiny tears at the base.
She took out some ointment and applied it to the painful areas, no longer in the mood to go back into the water.
She asked Bao Gu for her storage magic treasure back and put on her clothes.
After resting for a while, Bao Gu felt her throat and wrist were not as painful.
She carefully moved to the shallow water to bathe and put on the set of Nascent Soul forbidden magic treasures that Zi Yunshu had refined for her.
Zi Yunshu, dressed, came out of the water and saw the two sisters still sulking and ignoring each other.
She said, “Yu Mi, Bao Gu didn’t mean to grab you there. How about I rub it for you?”
Yu Mi almost spat out a “Get lost” but remembered this person was Little Martial Aunt, not someone else.
The word “Get lost” reached her lips but was swallowed back down, and she sulkily pursed her lips in silent anger.
Seeing Bao Gu also sulking at Yu Mi, Zi Yunshu, not wanting to further anger Yu Mi, quietly transmitted the incident of Bao Gu grabbing the wrong place while drowning to Bao Gu.
Feeling guilty, Bao Gu dared not be angry anymore and shrank behind Zi Yunshu, softly saying, “Senior… senior sister, I’m sorry!”
Yu Mi coldly “hmmphed” and turned back to glare fiercely at Bao Gu hiding behind Zi Yunshu.
Bao Gu dared not meet Yu Mi’s gaze and quietly asked, “Shouldn’t we go find the little monkey? Did it run off to Taiyin Sect to steal spiritual herbs, spiritual grass, and spiritual fruits?”
Just as she finished speaking, they heard the Duobao Spirit Monkey’s “squeak” from above, and then saw it leap from a tree not far from the creek to her shoulder.
Bao Gu asked, “You didn’t go to Taiyin Sect?”
She was secretly relieved to see Duobao Spirit Monkey appear unharmed by her side.
Taiyin Sect had three Nascent Soul stage masters guarding it, and even though Duobao Spirit Monkey was good at escaping, facing the encirclement of three Nascent Soul stage masters was dangerous.
Zi Yunshu said, “I guess it has already been to Taiyin Sect!”
Bao Gu puzzledly said, “Huh? It went?”
Duobao Spirit Monkey “squeaked” and then dragged out a soft squeak again, hugging Bao Gu’s neck in grievance.
Bao Gu felt something was wrong, thinking Duobao Spirit Monkey might have been injured, and quickly asked, “Little monkey, did you encounter those three Nascent Soul stage cultivators from Taiyin Sect, and they hurt you?”
Duobao Spirit Monkey “squeaked” long and nodded.
Zi Yunshu laughed, “With so many rare treasures and its tough skin, I’m afraid those injuries would have healed long ago.”
Duobao Spirit Monkey fiercely bared its teeth at Zi Yunshu, seemingly annoyed at her for revealing its secret.
Yu Mi asked, “You didn’t cause a huge commotion at Taiyin Sect, did you?”
Duobao Spirit Monkey “squeaked” twice, nodding vigorously, then proudly patted its round, bulging belly with its little paws.
Zi Yunshu commented, “This time, Taiyin Sect must have suffered a huge loss.”
Yu Mi added, “Taiyin Sect is probably going berserk, trying to figure out how to catch us.”
After pondering for a moment, Zi Yunshu said, “Let’s return to Xuantian Sect! Now that Nanshan Yijian is stationed there, Taiyin Sect might not dare to attack.”
After saying this, she removed the concealment formation here and summoned the teleportation platform to rush back to Xuantian Sect with Yu Mi and the others.
Xuantian Sect was protected by a sect formation, so the teleportation platform could only transport them to the heavily guarded teleportation formation of Xuantian Sect.
As soon as they appeared on the teleportation formation of Xuantian Sect, they heard someone excitedly shouting, “It’s Little Martial Aunt! It’s Little Martial Aunt and them, Little Martial Aunt and them are back!”
“Quick, go report to the Sect Leader, Elder Yunshu and them are back.”
Bao Gu, hearing the commotion, looked up and saw that they were surrounded by more than a dozen fellow disciples.
These fellow disciples stared at the Duobao Spirit Monkey on her shoulder as if it were a rare treasure.
“So this is the Duobao Spirit Monkey, amazing!”
“Isn’t it? Our entire sect couldn’t catch it, how could it not be amazing?”
“Even the three Nascent Soul stage ancestors of Taiyin Sect couldn’t catch it, instead, it managed to empty all of Taiyin Sect’s medicinal fields…”
“Bao Gu is really lucky, not only did she receive the legacy of the ancestral master, but she also gained the allegiance of Duobao Spirit Monkey…”
“Bao Gu junior sister, you’re back, I’m from Shuiyunze…”
Seeing the crowd of fellow disciples pressing forward, and more flying on swords from the sky, Bao Gu couldn’t help but shrink behind Zi Yunshu.
She vaguely felt that she had caused a big trouble again!
But then she thought, the conflict between Xuantian Sect and Taiyin Sect had already started, so this incident wouldn’t make much difference.
Zi Yunshu and Yu Mi suddenly turned their heads to look at Duobao Spirit Monkey: You really didn’t hold back at all!
They had known that wherever Duobao Spirit Monkey went, it wouldn’t leave even a bit of medicinal root or grass residue behind.
Thinking that Taiyin Sect had three Nascent Soul stage cultivators guarding it, Duobao Spirit Monkey, even if it could steal, would at most only manage to take a few medicinal fields.
But they hadn’t expected it to take everything!
Everything!
Taiyin Sect must be going insane!
Knowing that the situation had escalated, Zi Yunshu didn’t stay long and immediately took Bao Gu to find her father.
Soon, Zi Yunshu brought Bao Gu to the main peak’s hall of Tianyun Peak.
As soon as they landed, they heard the voice of Zi Tianjun, “Come in!”
Bao Gu followed Zi Yunshu into Tianyun Hall and saw that there were actually more than a dozen people sitting inside, some of whom she recognized as Nascent Soul stage elders from various peaks, and a few she didn’t know.
She bowed to Zi Tianjun, saying, “Greetings to the Sect Leader Grandmaster!”
Then she heard her Little Martial Aunt bowing to the unfamiliar faces sitting on the first few cushions on the side, “Greetings to the Ancestral Master and Uncle Master Bu Yu!”
Yu Mi also bowed, “Greetings to the two great ancestors! Greetings to Master.”
Master?
Bao Gu looked up in confusion at the three unfamiliar people sitting in a row, all looking quite young, between twenty and thirty years old, all looking at her.
With her level of perception, she naturally couldn’t tell who was older, who had a higher status, or who was her master.
She could only follow Yu Mi’s lead and bow in the same direction, then quietly asked, “Senior sister, who is our irresponsible master?”
The man sitting in the third position, a handsome man about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, coughed lightly and asked with a stern face, “Where have I been irresponsible?”
Bao Gu chuckled awkwardly and quickly bowed, “Disciple Bao Gu greets Master. Master, you’ve come out of seclusion? Are you a Nascent Soul stage expert now?”
Zhuo Wangchuan said, “I heard from Brother Feng that you were going to the ancient ruins. Tomorrow is the day the ancient ruins open. You should go back to Lingyun Peak to rest well. Tomorrow, Master and Uncle Master Bu Yu will accompany you. Yu Mi, take Bao Gu to rest.”
Yu Mi responded, “Yes!”
“Wait a moment!”
Elder Fan Tuan from Zhuoyun Peak said, “Duobao Spirit Monkey emptied Taiyin Sect’s medicinal fields, I wonder how Lingyun Peak intends to deal with these rare and precious medicines obtained from Taiyin Sect?”
As soon as Elder Fan Tuan spoke, everyone in the room turned to look at her.
Bao Gu understood, it was time to divide the spoils.
Yu Mi muttered quietly, “That stingy monkey, even if it gets into its stomach, can you expect it to spit it out?”
Bao Gu knew that Duobao Spirit Monkey had emptied Taiyin Sect’s medicinal fields and had also been pursued by three Nascent Soul stage cultivators from Taiyin Sect.
If Taiyin Sect couldn’t catch Duobao Spirit Monkey, they would naturally come after Xuantian Sect.
So, since the sect had to clean up after Duobao Spirit Monkey, wouldn’t it be necessary to give some benefits?
But Duobao Spirit Monkey might not be willing to spit out the rare and precious medicines it had “worked hard” to obtain!
If Duobao Spirit Monkey wasn’t willing to give, and the other peaks saw the benefits but couldn’t get them, would they let it go?
Seeing her master Zhuo Wangchuan also looking at her in silence, she knew she had to solve this problem herself.
She thought for a moment and said, “Although Duobao Spirit Monkey follows me, we have always had a fair trade. I don’t have the right to distribute what it has obtained by venturing deep into Taiyin Sect alone.”
An elder from Shuiyunze said with a meaningful “Oh—?”, “But the actions of Duobao Spirit Monkey have already led Taiyin Sect to desperately send all their high-level experts to besiege Xuantian Sect. Although our sect now has four Nascent Soul early stage cultivators, but… forgive me for speaking bluntly, the Sect Leader, Uncle Master, and Grandmaster have only just broken through to the Nascent Soul stage and need to consolidate their cultivation. It’s not suitable to start a major conflict at this time.”
Bao Gu sighed inwardly.
The struggle for interests is unavoidable everywhere!
The mining area of Taiyin Sect was a blatant robbery, this is coercion.
They couldn’t do anything to Duobao Spirit Monkey, so they came after her!
Zhuo Wangchuan said to the elder from Shuiyunze who had just spoken, “Elder Mingxiu, Taiyin Sect has already attacked us, why talk about not starting a conflict? You may be afraid, but I am not!”
