Wu Ling Gen, cultivate waste!
Tang Xin nodded in response. The woman's eyes finally showed a hint of a smile, and she asked: "I don't even know your name yet? I see that you don't have any spiritual energy on you, so you shouldn't be a cultivator yet, right?"
"My name is Tang Xin, and I'm actually not a cultivator."
The woman in black veil's eyes lit up and said: "Oh? Since that's the case, why don't you enter my Green Leaning Door?"
Because of her words, the girls behind her were shocked one after another. The pink-clothed girl couldn't help but speak up: "Master, she's a person with an unknown background, how can she enter our Green Yi Gate? Moreover, our Green Yi Gate is one of the top sects on the Tiger Roar Continent, how can we casually accept disciples?"
Tang Xin was taken aback for a moment, then smiled brightly: "Thank you, senior, but I'm just an ordinary person, I'm afraid..."
"Tang Xin, my Green Leaning Gate is renowned throughout the Tiger Roar Continent, with over a thousand disciples under me. Many noble young masters have been rejected by me at the door. If it weren't for you catching my eye today, I wouldn't be considering taking you as my apprentice." The hoarse voice spoke in a low tone, and she glanced at Tang Xin before continuing: "Besides, I am a 7th-level Foundation Establishment cultivator. Throughout the entire Tiger Roar Continent, there are only a handful of cultivators above the 7th level of Foundation Establishment. You should think carefully about this."
She understood the threat in her words, but why did she want to take her as an apprentice? And with a hint of coercion? If she refused, then she would have another enemy at the seventh level of foundation building. If she accepted...
In the depths of her eyes, a hint of mystery flashed by, and when she raised them again, they were clear as if she was an innocent girl, smiling sweetly: "Then, will you teach me magic? Like what she did just now?"
"That's natural, but we still need to see what attribute you are, in order to decide which technique is suitable for you to cultivate." The hoarse voice slowed down a bit, and the previous harsh tone was no longer visible, as if he was satisfied with her compromise.
"Well, Master is above, please accept a bow from your disciple." She immediately clasped her hands together and bowed respectfully to her.
"What kind of etiquette is this? Who has a master-disciple ceremony like this? Of course, you have to kneel down to make it a proper ceremony." The pink-clothed girl beside her scolded, her beautiful eyes full of unfriendliness towards her.
Tang Xin blinked, lowered her head and said: "But, on our side it's all like that! And my father said, except for parents, the master is also not allowed to kneel. If you must kneel, then I'd rather not take a master."
Upon hearing this, the woman veiled in black finally waved her hand: "Alright, alright, no need to kneel. Since you've already paid your respects and acknowledged me as your master, let's just head back to Qing Yi Men after we exit this forest!"
"Alright, thank you, Master." She said with a bright smile.
"You started late, they are all your senior sisters. In the future, be more polite to them, as they are from large families and know more than you do. If you have any questions in the future, you can also ask them for guidance."
The pink-clothed girl and the dozen or so girls all proudly raised their chins, casting disdainful glances at her body a few times. The pink-clothed girl even had an air of being a senior sister, opening her mouth to say: "Tang Xin, come over and pay your respects to your many senior sisters!"
"Hello, everyone." She stepped forward and gave them a polite bow.
"Hmm, that's about right." The girl in pink clothes glanced at her and then walked towards the woman with a veil: "Master, let's go!"
"Hmm." A hoarse voice responded with a single word, glanced at Tang Xin, and then led the crowd into the forest.
Tang Xin followed behind, and when she looked up again, a flash of light flowed in her eyes, disappearing quickly before anyone could notice. She walked behind like an innocent and naive girl, occasionally chatting with the other girls, while the mysterious woman in front, although not turning her head, kept her ears perked up to pay attention to her.
Just as they continued walking forward, they soon encountered the wind wolves again. The appearance of the wind wolves was in groups. When the flying wind wolves surrounded them, Tang Xin shouted in panic: "Ah! Master! There are wolves!"
"You hide behind me, and leave this place to us." A hoarse voice came out, she gestured for Tang Xin to hide behind her. Tang Xin listened, and immediately came to her back, a pair of "frightened" eyes still with a few points of "fear" looking at those wolves.
But those dozen or so girls, seeing her timid appearance, let out a disdainful snort one after another, each drawing their weapons to prepare for battle against the Wind Wolves.
"Ahh!"
A low howl sounded, and twenty or so Wind Wolves suddenly pounced forward in unison. Their wolf mouths were wide open, revealing sharp teeth, with white saliva dripping from them. They opened their sharp claws and swiped down fiercely, targeting Li Yuanchun, who was standing behind Tang Xin, protecting her. With a flick of his sleeve, Li Yuanchun condensed spiritual energy into an attack in both hands, unleashing two swift wind blades that sliced towards the Wind Wolves with a whistling sound.
As soon as she saw it, her eyes narrowed, and with incredible speed! The Wind Blade's attack was far superior to those of the Wind Wolves, and its swift strikes left one defenseless! This woman was indeed as she had said, her strength was not low, and could even be compared to that of the cultivator who wanted to kill him.
"Hiss! Growl......"
Fierce gusts of wind cut through, blood splattered everywhere, the Wind Wolves let out a low howl and fell to the ground, twitching a few times before lying still. But it seemed that the taste of blood only drove those Wind Wolves even more frenzied, originally there were only one or two attacking Li Wan Qiu, now several were specifically targeting her, she felt uneasy, hastily running away.
"Ah! Sister, save me!" At the same time that several wolves pounced on Li Yuqiu, she quickly retreated from Li Yuqiu's side and went to the back of the pink-clothed girl. With one hand tightly grasping her hem, she said in a panic: "Sister, those wolves are so fierce! You must protect me, I don't want to die yet!"
"Get out!"
The girl in pink clothes was furious, shouting loudly: "What are you hiding behind my back? Figure out a way to deal with the Wind Wolf yourself, I don't have time to bother with you!" As she spoke, her hand pushed forward, about to push her away. Tang Xin wouldn't let her off so easily, dodging to the side and speaking in a panicked tone: "But... but I only know three-legged cat kung fu! And you're my senior sister, how can you just watch me die at the paws of the Wind Wolf? Master would never agree to that!"
"You!"
"Yǔ dié, hù zhe nǐ qǐng shī mèi, tā ruò chū zhè me shén me de shì, wú yǐ nǐ shì wèn!" Lǐ Yuān Qiū's hoarse voice came over, she was currently dealing with a few Wind Wolves and couldn't leave to protect Tang Xin, so she could only entrust her to them.
"Master!" The girl in pink clothes stomped her foot and glared at Tang Xin with eyes full of anger.
"Sister Shī be careful! There's a wolf!" Tang Xin shouted loudly, pulling her up.
Dragged by her clothes, Lin Yudie cursed out loud: "Damn it! Don't grab my clothes!" As soon as the voice came out, she saw that Feng Lang had rushed over fiercely and immediately condensed a water energy to strike him.
As she counterattacked, a stream of water vapor condensed between her hands and quickly took shape, transforming into a water pillar that shot towards the incoming Wind Wolf. The water pillar pierced through the Wind Wolf's body, making a loud crashing sound, and the Wind Wolf that was originally pouncing on her lost its ability to fight, heavily falling onto the ground.
Not this trick again?
Her eyes flashed, and she looked at the pink-clothed girl in front of her. She was a water attribute? Being able to condense a water pillar so quickly, her strength shouldn't be low either! Her gaze swept behind her and saw a wolf pouncing over, she hastily stretched out her hand to pull her over and shouted: "Sister, behind you!" Her sister wasn't called in vain, when necessary, she had to help her block the danger, otherwise how could she live up to being called sister?
However, Lin Yudi was pulled back by her, and her body instinctively followed. For a moment, she only felt dizzy, and before she could regain her balance, the sharp claws had already scratched down at her arm, tearing off her sleeve and leaving several gashes, with blood gushing out. She couldn't help but cry out in pain.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
Tang Xin was also frightened, following her and screaming together. Seeing the wind wolf about to pounce down, she squatted down with one hand covering her head and the other hand pulling at her hem.
Just as Li Yuannong had killed the tenth Wind Wolf, she heard Tang Xin's cry and thought she was injured. She hastily turned her head to look back, and just then, a Wind Wolf pounced towards her. With a cold gaze, she flipped her palm, shook it violently, and a sharp gust of wind accompanied by spiritual energy shot out from her palm, striking the wolf and sending it flying into a nearby large tree with great force.
The wolf pack seemed to have been startled, let out a low howl, and the remaining dozen or so quickly retreated, just like they had arrived in the wind earlier, and disappeared without a trace.
"Sister, how are you?" Tang Xin looked at the scratches on Lin Yudie's arm and was moved to look at her: "Sister, you're really too good to me, you were injured by a wolf while saving me. Don't worry, I'll take good care of you along the way."
Lin Yudie was originally going to scold her loudly, but after hearing what she said and seeing her master walk over, she suddenly became so angry that she gritted her teeth in frustration yet couldn't do anything about it.
Li Yuqiu glanced at the injured Lin Yudi and saw that Tang Xin was fine, then said: "Tang Xin, help Yudi treat her wound, and have the rest of you dig out these Wind Wolf crystals."
"Yes."
Tang Xin casually treated her wound, then picked some herbs in the forest, chewed them in her mouth and was about to apply them to her wound. However, Lin Yuxian looked at the herbs that had been chewed into a pulp and still had saliva on them, revealing a disgusted expression: "You're going to use these disgusting things to treat me? They even have your spit on them! Get them away from me, don't disgust me to death."
"Sister, don't be so stubborn, this herbal medicine is really effective, and I intentionally added saliva to it, which is good for the wound. Just bear with it." Tang Xin didn't care if she was disgusted or not, and ignoring her terrified expression, he directly applied the medicinal herb with his saliva on her arm, and at the same time, tore off a strip of cloth from her skirt.
"You, what are you doing tearing my skirt!" She was furious, the wound was already painful, she didn't say a word and applied that disgusting herbal medicine to her wound, now he even dared to tear her skirt, it was really too much!
She innocently said: "Where did you get this strip of cloth from to bandage me?"
"You can tear it up!"
"But tearing yours is easier."
"You!"
"Sister, don't move, if you move again, the wound will hurt." She was bandaging while unintentionally increasing the force, causing her to cry out in pain.
Li Yuqiu looked at her from the side, seemingly wanting to see through her. A person with no self-defense ability, how could she still be safe in this forest? Could it be true that she was following a group of mercenaries as she said earlier and managed to survive until now?
For half a month, Tang Xin had no chance to leave. Li Yuanyu's eyes would fall on her from time to time, paying attention to her every move. She wanted to poison her, but she didn't dare take the risk. After half a month of getting along, she knew that Li Yuanyu was different from those mercenaries. Her vigilance was high and her defensive heart was strong. Even when she went to relieve herself, someone would follow her, saying it was to protect her, but in fact it was to prevent her from running away.
She's about to leave the forest, and she changed her mind. Since she wants to keep her so much, then let her stay! Let's see if this Green Gate is really as great as she said, one of the top two major sects. Moreover, she hasn't come into contact with attribute magic yet, so it's also a good opportunity to learn about it first.
"Let's rest here for tonight! We can leave the forest at dawn tomorrow." Li Yuqiu spoke up, still in that hoarse voice.
Tang Xin wondered several times, what kind of face was hidden under that black veil? Ugly? Beautiful? And why was her voice so hoarse? Logically speaking, as a seventh-level foundation-building cultivator, she shouldn't have aged too quickly, should she?
"Master, after leaving the Youming Forest, how long will it take us to reach the Green Gate?" She walked over and sat down beside her, whatever her intentions were, at least for now, her safety was not a concern.
"The Green Leaning-to-the-Gate is on the Jade Maiden Peak, from here it will take two days to get there."
"Master, will we be passing through the city? I've never been to the Tiger's Roar Continent before, and I don't know what the towns here are like. Can Master Sister take me for a stroll when the time comes?"
"En, can." She nodded and said to Lin Yudie: "After entering the city, you take her around!"
"Yes, Master." Lin Yutie glanced at Tang Xin and sat down beside him.
The next day, when they left the Youming Forest, Tang Xin looked back and thought to herself, wondering if they were okay too, whether they had also safely exited the forest.
"Tang Xin, are you leaving or staying? It's all up to you now!" Lin Yudie turned her head and shouted, looking at her with dissatisfaction.
"Here." Tāng Xīn turned around, suppressing the emotions in her eyes, and then raised her gaze again. Her face was clear and bright, with a faint smile on her stunningly beautiful face: "Shījiě, now that we've entered the city, take me out to play!"
"What's the hurry? By the time we get into town, it'll be at least afternoon."
A group of people, all young women, each one looking lovely and beautiful, walking on the road naturally attracted attention. Entering the city gate, the pedestrians on the bustling streets couldn't help but stare at them in amazement. Of course, among them was Tang Xin, wearing a green dress, stunningly beautiful, her beauty left anyone who had seen her speechless, let alone ordinary citizens of the city.
She had long been accustomed to such gazes, and Tang Xin didn't mind at all. However, those dozen or so girls, including Lin Yudie, were consumed with jealousy, their eyes almost bursting into flames as they shot glances at Tang Xin from time to time, wishing they could disfigure her face and destroy her stunning beauty. Meanwhile, Li Yuqiu, walking ahead, slowly lowered her eyelids after seeing the amazed gazes of the pedestrians and even some cultivators on the street, concealing the fleeting expression in her eyes.
After settling down at an inn, Tang Xin pulled Lin Yudie out the door. Of course, it would be better if she could go out by herself, but she knew Li Wannian wouldn't agree. As soon as they stepped out of the inn's gate, a hoarse voice came from behind them.
"Yǔ dié, you two go out and don't cause any trouble, just take a stroll and come back soon, don't be too late."
"Yes, Master."
As soon as they arrived on the street, Tang Xin let go of Lin Yudie and walked forward by herself, occasionally looking at things along the street. Seeing that everything was very common, just like in Longteng Continent, she couldn't help but feel bored. Meanwhile, Lin Yudie had to push through the crowd again and keep an eye on her so she wouldn't get lost, not even having the mind to look around at what was on the big street. When she saw Tang Xin stop at a small stall ahead, she thought she had finally caught up with her, but who knew that after putting down the small trinket in her hand, she would continue walking forward again? Lin Yudie got so angry that she shouted loudly from behind.
"Tang Xin! Wait for me!" Heaven knows how much she's been bullied by her, clearly she's the senior sister, yet she's always being taken advantage of, and now she has to be responsible for accompanying her shopping? It's really unknown why Master is so biased towards her!
"Huh? Spirit Medicine Seed?" Her eyes lit up and she walked towards the stall in front.
"Miss, buying seeds? Which kind of spiritual medicine seeds do you want? We have everything here." The shopkeeper saw a customer coming in and hurriedly came over to greet her.
"Are these all spiritual medicine seeds?" She stepped forward, sizing up the seeds placed on the table. Some had already sprouted, while others were just seeds. In front of each seed, its medicinal value and price were detailed.
"That's right, miss. This is Hejingcao, also the most commonly used spiritual herb. Generally, it can be harvested in three months after planting, and its growth rate is fast. Dan disciples will use this to make some golden wound medicine suitable for swords. The price of Hejingcao is not expensive, only ten gold coins. But this White Crane Lingzhi is a more precious spiritual medicine, taking ten years to mature and twenty years to be considered barely ripe. To truly be harvestable, it must take thirty years, so this medicine is extremely valuable."
"What? It takes thirty years to mature? Thirty years, how long do I have to wait?! If someone is waiting for this medicine to save their life, won't they be old and grey by then?" She twitched the corner of her mouth. Spirit medicine? She finally had some understanding. The difference between spirit medicine and ordinary herbs lies in that it not only contains spiritual energy but also takes a long time to mature.
"Heh heh, in some deep mountains and dense forests or steep cliffs where few people go, these spiritual medicines will also appear. However, generally the good spiritual medicines are guarded by spiritual beasts, and some people will cultivate such spiritual medicines. But because of the rarity of the mature White Crane Spiritual Mushroom, usually no one will take it out to sell, typically they will exchange for corresponding treasures."
Tang Xin nodded, turned around and said: "Alright, you take those few rare seeds for me, each three strains!" Her medicine field was empty anyway, buying some to plant wouldn't be bad.
However, the shopkeeper who heard her words was taken aback: "Miss, which of the rarer ones do you want?" Looking at her appearance, she didn't seem like a connoisseur, how could she possibly help with those extremely precious spiritual medicine seeds?
"This and that, and these few." She pointed to a few, all of which she had decided on after looking through all the seeds in his stall. These seeds have a long growth period, maybe she'll use them someday.
"Just, miss, don't mention those things, these seeds are very expensive, you..."
"Don't worry, I can afford it." She smiled and pulled out a black crystal card: "This is also usable here, right?"
"Crystal card? Alright." Black crystal card? It seems this girl isn't an ordinary person, she's already brought out a black crystal card. Although in the Tiger Roar Continent, black crystal cards are relatively common, only some family members can bring them out. On top of that, there are also gold stone cards and purple gold cards on the black crystal card, but those are extremely rare, only people with great power can bring them out. In this town, it's even more impossible to see one.
After wrapping up several kinds of seeds for her, the shopkeeper thought for a moment and asked: "Miss, are you from Dantu?"
"No."
"Is that an alchemist?"
"Not really." She smiled lightly.
"Is that... an alchemist?" The shopkeeper swallowed hard, looking at her with a hint of excitement.
"Hehe, no, I just bought these to plant for fun." She chuckled and saw the shopkeeper's stunned face, then turned around and walked out. As soon as she stepped outside, she saw Lin Yudie frantically searching left and right on the street, occasionally shouting loudly. She shook her head, put the seeds into her spatial ring, and then blended into the crowd.
"Sister, I'm over here!"
As soon as she saw her, she rushed forward in a huff and scolded: "Tang Xin! Where have you been? Is this how you go shopping?"
"Sister Lin, lower your voice, they're all staring at you!" She gestured to the surrounding streets, where many people were now pointing and whispering about the furious Lin Yudie.
Seeing those people pointing and staring at her, she couldn't help but blush, giving Tang Xin a stern glance. Lowering her voice, "Hurry up! Let's go back!" With that, she pulled Tang Xin along as they headed back.
There's nothing good to buy on the street, and she has already bought the seeds, so she followed her back to the hostel. When they arrived at the hostel, two girls came out to greet Lin Yudie and said: "Lin Shijie, Master wants you and Tang Xin to go to her room."
"Oh, okay, which room is Master in?"
"I'll take you there." The girl turned around and led the way upstairs to the second floor.
"Master, Lin Shijie and Tang Shimai have arrived."
"Ah, come in."
A hoarse voice came from the room, outside the door. Tang Xin pushed the door open and saw Li Yuqiu sitting at the table with a black crystal stone in front of her. She understood that Li must be trying to help her test whether she had spiritual roots.
"Master." The two spoke in unison, coming to a stop before her.
"Alright, Tang Xin, I haven't had time to help you test your spiritual root on this journey. Today, I'll help you test it out. When we return to Qing Yi Men, it will also be good for selecting a suitable cultivation method." She gestured for her to sit down and then said to Lin Yu Die beside her: "Yu Die, wait over there for now! I have something to ask you later."
"Yes." Lin Yutie respectfully replied and stepped aside.
"Master, how can I test it?" She looked at the black crystal stone with a confused face.
"You will hold this crystal stone in your hand, close your eyes, calm your mind and concentrate, what attribute of spiritual root you are, this crystal stone will reveal."
"Good." She stretched out her hand, grasped the crystal stone, closed her eyes, and felt a stream of spiritual energy surging through her palm into her body.
Li Wanqiu's eyes lit up slightly as she watched, and when she saw the black crystal stone displaying a fire attribute glow, a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes. It was indeed a fire attribute... However, soon after, the fire attribute glow dimmed down, and a water attribute rose up instead.
"Double Spirit Root?" The hoarse voice was filled with a hint of surprise as he stared at the crystal that pulsed with water energy.
And beside her, Lin Yudi's eyes widened in surprise. Tang Xin was actually a dual-spirited root? No way! However, just as they thought she was dual-attribute, the water attribute gradually faded away, revealing gold, earth and wood attributes. Seeing this, Lin Yudi slightly put down her guard, with a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.
Hmph! Five Spiritual Roots? That's a waste of spiritual roots, and the five roots are the most difficult to cultivate. Even if they achieve the greatest accomplishment, it will only be at the Foundation Establishment stage. But they're different, their cultivation is endless, even if they're not doing well, I believe that in a few hundred years, they can still become Nascent Soul cultivators. She's completely incomparable to them.
"Alas!"
Hearing a soft sigh, Tang Xin opened her eyes and looked at Li Yuanchun in front of her: "Master, how is it? Do I have spiritual roots?"
Li Wanqiu looked at her and put away the crystal, standing up: "You are a Five Spirits Root." It's really unexpected that she is actually a Five Spirits Root, which is the most difficult to cultivate. It won't be easy to reach the Foundation Establishment stage!
"Five spiritual roots? Does that mean I can cultivate all five attributes?" Her eyes lit up, if so, that would be great.
"Hmph! Look at you, still so smug? You must know that the Five Spirits Root is also known as the Trash Spirit Root. It's true that it can cultivate all five attributes, but your body's five attributes are mutually restrictive and contradictory. Wanting to cultivate them won't be that easy."
"That's also saying it can still be cultivated, right?"
Upon hearing this, Li Yuqiu's eyes flashed with a hint of light. Ah, yes! It is possible to cultivate, and if she had top-notch medicinal pills to aid her, entering the foundation-building stage shouldn't be difficult. Thinking of this, he raised his gaze towards her, his eyes already softening: "You're right, having five spiritual roots also allows for cultivation, it's just that you'll have to pay a greater price than ordinary people."
"That's good." She smiled, apparently relieved.
"Uh-huh, Tang Xin, you go out first! I have something to ask Lin Shijie." She waved her hand, indicating for her to leave.
"Good." She responded with a single word and walked out.
After she left, Li Yuqiu finally spoke up: "Yutie, what did she do when you all went out today?"
"Master, she's just a country bumpkin. She has a stunning face, but she acts like someone who's never seen the world before. When we went out on the street, she ran around like a madwoman, and her excited expression made it seem like she'd never been outside before. I almost died from exhaustion following her around. It was always her leading the way and me chasing after her. Master, why did you take her on as an apprentice? She doesn't even have any talent. You might as well just get rid of her."
"Alright, I know. You can go now! On the way, you need to take good care of her, after all, she's new here and doesn't understand many things. Moreover, she is already a disciple of my Green Bamboo Sect, which makes her your junior sister. From now on, you are not allowed to pick on her anymore. You can go now!"
After hearing this, Lin Yudi's eyes flashed with confusion, wanting to ask again, but seeing that she had already closed her eyes, he could only say: "Then I'll take my leave first."
The moment the door closed, Li Yuqiu opened her eyes, and a faint dark light flashed in her cold pupils. She reached out to gently touch her face through the black veil, then looked at her wrinkled skin, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.
Although she had a Five Spirits Root, she believed that as long as she carefully cultivated and assisted with elixirs, she would definitely be able to break through the Foundation Establishment stage! As long as she reached the Foundation Establishment stage, everything would be easy...
In another room, Tang Xin was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, thinking about the Five Spirits Root. At this moment, the door was pushed open and Lin Yudie walked in, seeing her lying on the bed, she walked over and pointed at her, saying: "Tang Xin, get down for me! This bed is for me to sleep, you can sleep on the floor tonight."
Upon hearing this, she opened her eyes and said: "Sister, how can that be? All the rooms are for two people, and this bed is just the right size for us to sleep together."
"I'd rather not sleep with you on the same bed!" As she said that, she reached out to pull her down, but at this moment, a silver needle between Tang Xin's fingers moved and pierced into her body. In an instant, Lin Yudie fainted and half fell off the edge of the bed.
"Want to sleep on the bed? Go ahead!" Tang Xin lifted her foot and kicked her down onto the floor, letting her lie there. It wasn't that she was heartless, but rather that she had never been particularly kind-hearted to begin with.
She fell asleep with her eyes closed until the sky gradually brightened, when she got up and put Lin Yudie on the bed after sleeping on the ground for a night. She tidied herself up, cleaned up afterwards, and then used a silver needle to prick her acupoints once.
"Huh? It's dawn already? How did it get so bright so fast? Ah-choo!" She shivered suddenly, hugging her body tightly and muttered to herself: "Why do I feel like I've caught a chill?"
"Sister, get up quickly, we still have to return to Lü Yi Men today." Tang Xin had already tidied up her clothes and hair ornaments. The small dan on top of her head remained motionless, just like a real hair ornament, radiating a bright blue light, beautiful and dazzling.
"I know, no need to remind me." She said with a lift in her spirits, adjusting her dress before heading out.
After going downstairs, they had the second child prepare breakfast. They sat at four or five tables, each one a beautiful woman, making everyone in the large Qing guest house take notice. Tang Xin and Lin Yudie as well as another female disciple sat at one table, leaving an empty seat for Li Wannian, but she hadn't come down yet.
At this time, a burly man with a tiger waist and bear back walked into the inn. As soon as he entered the gate, his eyes with a hint of obscenity scanned the dozen or so girls in the hall, until they landed on Tang Xin's green dress, at which point his eyes lit up.
