Outside the door.
The Little Meatballs were bickering with the Daoist child.
As for the content of their bickering… it was naturally the same old topics.
It was nothing more than whether these little fellows were heavy or not.
But these things were already common knowledge, and arguing about them was pointless.
Even the Daoist child gave up after arguing with them for a short while.
Because these little fellows were truly stubborn.
Even after so many years, they hadn't changed at all.
So she simply couldn't be bothered with them.
To avoid their incessant chirping, which bothered her.
However, even though she didn't want to bother with the Little Sparrows, the Daoist child standing there alone without speaking was somewhat boring, and more importantly, a bit awkward.
After some thought, she decided to go chat with Leng Xiang.
Although Leng Xiang didn't seem like someone easy to talk to, she… probably wouldn't completely ignore people, right?
Saying a few words would most likely be fine.
“Um…” the Daoist child called out, a little timidly, “You're called Leng Xiang, right?”
The Daoist child had wanted to find a better opening, but was startled by Leng Xiang's turning gaze, causing the words on the tip of her tongue to instantly vanish.
Looking at Leng Xiang, she always felt like she would be hit the next second…
Leng Xiang turned her head to look at the Daoist child, not speaking for a moment, just nodding.
Actually, Leng Xiang was also very confused, not knowing why she had scared this Daoist child…
Although she was a Sword Spirit, she shouldn't have such sharp aura and killing intent.
She couldn't figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it.
As for chatting with the Daoist child, Leng Xiang honestly didn't know how to start.
Talking with Su Qing and the Little Sparrows was fine, but communicating with someone she wasn't very familiar with was indeed a bit difficult.
The Daoist child looked at Leng Xiang, and seeing that Leng Xiang didn't seem to be about to retort, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She said, “Your forger… shouldn't be Big Green Snake, right?”
Upon hearing this, Leng Xiang merely nodded…
And the Daoist child continued, “No wonder… Since your creator isn't Big Green Snake, then it must be the Three Sacred Mother, right?”
“That's right…” Leng Xiang heard this, nodded slightly, and said, “However… she is only the creator of the sword, not of me.”
Speaking of the Three Sacred Mother, Leng Xiang actually didn't have much affection…
After all, if it weren't for her, Leng Xiang wouldn't have become a Sword Spirit.
Nor would she have experienced a thousand years of solitude…
Eating dust for a thousand years.
The Daoist child seemed thoughtful upon hearing this, and after a moment, nodded slightly.
“I understand! Oh, right, how did you end up in Big Green Snake's hands?” the Daoist child continued to ask.
To this, Leng Xiang had quite a lot to say…
After all, she remembered the events of that period very clearly…
Although she couldn't mention Bodhi's name, she could substitute it in other ways.
So, she simply told the Daoist child about these matters.
The Daoist child listened to Leng Xiang's words, nodded slightly, and smiled sweetly, saying, “In that case, it truly is a blessing that you met Big Green Snake.”
Upon hearing this, Leng Xiang smiled faintly and nodded heavily.
Although Leng Xiang somewhat resented the Three Sacred Mother, she had to admit one thing: if she hadn't become a Sword Spirit, she might not have met her master.
The Daoist child saw Leng Xiang smile and couldn't help but smile herself, then pulled Leng Xiang to talk about other things.
The Daoist child was very outgoing, and Leng Xiang wasn't truly cold… she just wasn't good at expressing herself.
So, she was also willing to chat with the Daoist child.
Suddenly, Leng Xiang asked the little Daoist child why she knew she was forged by the Three Sacred Mother…
The Daoist child replied, “Isn't that obvious?”
Leng Xiang didn't know what was obvious, but she was too lazy to ask more… and was soon led by the Daoist child to talk about other things.
As they chatted, the restless Little Sparrows also landed and joined the conversation…
Chirping and bustling with excitement.
The few of them sat on the steps outside the temple gate, chatting for a long time.
Just as they were in high spirits, the sound of a door opening suddenly came from behind them.
Leng Xiang heard the movement and couldn't help but turn to look…
The one who came out was none other than Su Qing.
At this time, Su Qing looked not much different from before, but her expression seemed a bit serious, and a pair of red crystal earrings had appeared on Su Qing's ears.
The earrings complemented the huadian, making Su Qing's temperament change from gentle to more enchanting.
Upon seeing Su Qing, Leng Xiang immediately stood up and called out, “Master and Senior have finished talking?”
Su Qing heard this, nodded slightly, put away the serious expression on her face, and smiled faintly:
“Yes, I learned something quite extraordinary. But it's not very relevant to us right now…”
Su Qing had no intention of passing on her worries to others…
Moreover, these things were not something Su Qing could casually speak about… she had also promised the two seniors.
Leng Xiang was slightly stunned upon hearing this, then nodded and said, “Then next, we are going to see Bai Suzhen, right?”
Leng Xiang naturally wouldn't ask about problems Su Qing was unwilling to discuss.
Instead, she shifted the topic.
“Yes! After all, isn't the purpose of coming here this time to see Bai Suzhen?”
Su Qing smiled and nodded, saying:
“Speaking of which, when I came out just now, I seemed to hear you talking about me? Honestly, I'm really not greedy. Compared to those feathered flying pigs, my appetite is very restrained, isn't it?”
The Little Meatballs naturally immediately wanted to refute this…
After all… no one wants to admit they're fat.
Su Qing ignored them, only saying to the Daoist child, “I'll have to trouble you again, take me to find Bai Suzhen.”
The Daoist child heard this and quickly shook her head, saying, “No trouble, no trouble, it's just a small effort. Hehe.”
Su Qing smiled faintly, then heard the Daoist child ask, “Speaking of which, did that senior trouble you? He's such an old-fashioned person, every time he comes to see the Old Mother, he scolds me… and he always likes to lecture me. He's really annoying!”
Su Qing smiled again upon hearing this.
She now understood why this girl had told her earlier that Taishang Laojun was an old-fashioned person…
It wasn't because Taishang Laojun was truly old-fashioned, but because Taishang Laojun often lectured her.
She shook her head slightly and said, “That senior is actually a very good person, not as old-fashioned as imagined, but rather quite easygoing.”
“How could that be… you must have been deceived by him! He's always deceiving people! Big Green Sister, you absolutely must not be deceived by him! When he finds an opportunity, he will definitely lecture you too.”
The Daoist child looked puzzled… Taishang Laojun in her impression was very old-fashioned, always lecturing her with a stern face.
After a moment of thought, she could only conclude that Su Qing must have been fooled by Taishang Laojun's facade.
Su Qing merely smiled upon hearing this, then nodded slightly.
Treating it as coaxing a child…
After 'advising' Su Qing, the Daoist child happily led Su Qing deeper into Li Shan Mount Li, where there was another temple.
And Bai Suzhen was cultivating there at this time!
