"Stop!"

Chen Ye shouted fiercely, stepping forward quickly and pulling up Qing Jun, who was about to showcase her prowess.

"Is the Herb Pavilion's medicinal garden a place for you to mess around?"

Looking at the few Spiritual Medicines uprooted on the ground, and the leaves trampled beyond recognition by Qing Jun's little feet, he felt a headache coming on.

Bai Susu saw this and, far from feeling guilty, confidently clasped her small hands behind her back and said with a huff, "What? This lady is helping you manage the medicinal garden, and you're not pleased? These Spirit Plants are of mixed quality and are useless to keep. Uprooting them prevents them from affecting the growth of other Spiritual Medicines."

"Exactly, exactly!"

Qing Jun wriggled in Chen Ye's arms, her little face full of defiance,

"Sister Bai is helping Master!"

This little girl, calling Bai Susu with a jealous tone behind others' backs,

yet calling her 'Sister Bai' with such warmth when face to face.

Chen Ye looked at this lively little girl and didn't know whether to be angry or amused.

He took a deep breath, trying to make his tone sound less stern: "The grades of all Spiritual Medicines in this place are recorded in the records, and even pulling a weed needs to be reported to the steward. If you act so recklessly and Steward Sun finds out..."

"Steward Sun?" Bai Susu raised an eyebrow, her tone full of disdain, "What is he? How dare he meddle in this lady's affairs?"

Seeing that reasoning with her was futile, Chen Ye had to change his approach. He sighed and showed a bit of a troubled expression: "True Inheritor Bai has vast abilities and naturally isn't afraid. But I'm just a new steward, and if something goes wrong with the medicinal garden, and the Peak Master holds me accountable, I'd be punished. Then I can't even make snacks for True Inheritor Bai, let alone stay in Lingyin Sect."

As soon as he said this, Bai Susu furrowed her brow slightly. She might not care about the steward or the Peak Master, but if she couldn't taste such delicious snacks and meals, and couldn't hear the monkey's stories... that wouldn't do!

Chen Ye breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a bit smug.

As expected of him!

The first young girl expert in the Cultivation Realm, even the two ultimate bosses of the future were pacified by him, so why fear this Bai Susu?

He's come to realize.

Bai Susu responds to kindness, not force, and as long as you find the right way to get along, it's easy to interact with her.

"Never mind… hmph! This lady helped you so much yesterday, even eliminated a Foundation Establishment Cultivator from Medicine King Valley, what's wrong with letting me play with the Spirit Plants..."

Bai Susu stomped her foot in frustration, inadvertently revealing her true thoughts.

It turns out, this golden-haired one uprooted Chen Ye's carefully cultivated Spirit Plants, just for fun!

Moreover, this isn't Baiqi Garden, and if it were just a few Low Tier Spirit Plants, the Herb Pavilion wouldn't say anything.

But Bai Susu often goes for Upper and Middle Grade Spirit Plants…

When Bai Susu finally stopped, Chen Ye quickly replanted all the Spirit Plants.

Before long, the various Spirit Plants were back to their original positions.

Seeing the matter settled, Chen Ye patted the dirt off his hands and suddenly lowered his voice:

"True Inheritor Bai, I have some personal matters I wish to inquire about... might I request a word?"

Without seeing any response from Bai Susu,

in a swoosh, the two disciples tilted up two small black and white heads to look at Chen Ye.

"Stare——"

Chen Ye coughed: "What are you looking at? It's serious business! It's just not something I can tell you two."

After all, little Qing Jun had previously been kidnapped by Demon Cultivators.

If he mentioned the issues with Emotion Crossing Sect now, it might trigger some shadows in the hearts of the two disciples.

Bai Susu hesitated a bit.

…This bastard… This bastard says personal matters, but isn't he just going to ask me to massage his feet again?

She… she could see it, this bastard doesn't say it, but he must feel it in his heart!

Of course, liking is not allowed.

Disliking is even more not allowed! Every part of Bai Susu is not to be disliked by others!

"Hmm... as you like, I doubt you can stir up any trouble. Let's go, to your shabby hut!"

Bai Susu glanced at the two little girls who were full of curiosity, then at Chen Ye, who was pretending to be mysterious, and reluctantly nodded her head.

The two of them proceeded, one after the other, to the lonely thatched hut in Baiqi Garden.

Casually, Chen Ye set up a simple Sound Insulation Restriction, then from his Storage Bag, he took out the pitch-black Token obtained from Li Guangzong, inscribed with the words "Emotion Crossing":

"True Inheritor Bai, please look at this item."

The golden-haired girl hesitated a bit, then took the Token.

She seemed not to have expected Chen Ye to bring up something so serious.

"Wait, a Token from Emotion Crossing Sect? How do you have such a filthy thing?"

After examining the Token, her delicate face immediately showed a look of disgust:

Chen Ye said solemnly: "This item was found on the corpse of Myat Pill Pavilion's Pavilion Master, Li Guangzong."

Bai Susu was somewhat surprised: "I didn't expect Li Guangzong to actually have ties with the Demon Sect... it's good that we killed him. Anyway, it's no matter... he's dead, you can keep this Token. It might come in handy one day."

The golden-haired girl tossed the pitch-black Token casually, then threw it back to Chen Ye.

Chen Ye hurriedly caught the Token: "True Inheritor Bai means… this Token has other uses?"

"Hmm."

Bai Susu nodded, pointing to Chen Ye's waist badge,

"Similar to Lingyin Sect's identity badge, it's a token that can serve as proof of identity. Previously, the Demon Cultivator who abducted your disciple killed Ping Zhuo, got the token from Spirit Treasure Sect, and used it to escape from their territory."

Hearing this, Chen Ye put away the waist badge.

Although now, he's trying to avoid contact with the Demon Path people.
