Chapter 3205: Chapter 3205: You’re Not Up to the Task

“Of course, it will.”

The Family Head nodded without even thinking.

Although the Sect Master of the Saintess Sect had stumbled this time, she was someone who used to plan ten steps ahead. How could she not have some backup plans?

“It’s possible that the Saintess Sect has some disciples secretly hidden.”

Just as Qing Qiushi was about to leave, he heard the Family Head’s speculation and nearly slipped.

The Family Head guessed correctly. The Saintess Sect had indeed hidden many disciples, as many as five hundred. If he hadn’t sent people to count them before, he wouldn’t have believed it.

“We have to send someone to investigate thoroughly later.”

The teeth-grinding Family Head immediately decided that this time, they couldn’t allow the Saintess Sect to make a comeback.

…

The sky was getting a bit dark.

The little baby was the last to finish eating.

Once he finished, he quickly stood up and dusted off the food crumbs from his hands, looking at his two brothers.

“Big brother, second brother, I’m done eating. Let’s go.”

“Okay.”

Qian Yizheng responded and started arranging the order of the journey.

“Little Rong, you lead, Yilu second, then Nuonuo and Big Brother Min Yi, followed by Yixing and the boat, and I’ll bring up the rear.”

He believed this arrangement was the safest. If anything unexpected happened, he could lend a hand from the back, ensuring safety.

“How about I lead the way instead?”

Min Yi felt it unreasonable for a child to lead the way, so he raised his hand to suggest.

“You can’t.”

No need for Qian Yizheng to speak, Qian Yirong rejected him immediately.

Min Yi: “…”

Not capable, he thought. Is this something you can just say casually?

Just as he was about to say a few words in his defense, he heard a voice.

“The pressure from above is very strong, Big Brother Min Yi. It’s better if you stay in the middle. Most importantly, protect Nuonuo.” Qian Yizheng glanced at the little baby and said.

“Alright then.”

What more could Min Yi say? He followed the arrangement.

Soon, the group started climbing the stairs.

The stairs weren’t very steep but were narrow, only allowing one person to walk at a time. The group formed a straight line, with hardly any room for movement.

Even so, it was far better than climbing a cliff. It saved both time and effort.

However, as Qian Yizheng mentioned, the pressure increased the higher they climbed. An Yilu and the others soon broke into a sweat.

Min Yi didn’t fare much better. Despite being stronger than An Yilu and the others, he was still behind Little Nuonuo.

“Can’t even match a little baby, how hopeless!”

Carefully ascending, he mumbled, deciding that once they returned, he would seize every opportunity to cultivate seriously.

He couldn’t remain a useless noble. Though people might respect him due to his status, it was superficial. Such an existence would only invite scorn.

Taking a deep breath, he looked up, clenched his teeth, and continued to climb.

After a long while, when everyone finally reached the flat area at the top of the stairs, Min Yi, An Yilu, An Yixing, and the boat had all coughed up several mouthfuls of blood.
