Chapter 47: Grandpa is inconvenient these few days!

  "Sparring? Alright! I approve!" Leng Ruoxue said with some helplessness, sighing. Why did Feng Zhan and Bai Xu like fighting so much?!

  "I'd rather not spar with you!" Leng Ruoxue agreed, but Bai Xu was unhappy instead!

  "Dead cat, are you scared?" Feng Zhan Huo Da continued to provoke, anyway it was going to fight this smelly cat because it wanted to know the gap between them now.

  "Chop, you're just a second-level super beast, I'm already at level five now, am I afraid of you?" Bai Xu sneered.

  "If you're not afraid of me, then why don't you dare to spar with me?" Feng Zhan said with a scowl on his face, his small red eyes staring intensely.

  "Dad has been inconvenient these past few days!" Bai Xue gave Feng Zhan a white eye and said lightly.

  "You're not convenient for the next few days? Haha! You think you're a mother beast or something! These next few days are inconvenient, it's really too funny!" Feng Zhan burst out laughing in an unattractive manner, laughing and laughing until he exaggeratedly fell to the ground, using his small wings to cover his stomach as he laughed loudly.

  Leng Ruo Xue's face turned pale after hearing Bai Xu's words, her forehead was covered with black lines, she couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in her heart. Had Bai Xu eaten something wrong? Why was he being so abnormal today?

  The beasts heard Bai Xue's words and although they didn't laugh as exaggeratedly as Feng Zhan, they all turned their heads around and covered their mouths to stifle a smile!

  "Can't Grandfather just be inconvenienced for a few days? Hmph!" Bai Xue said with a slightly displeased tone, glancing at Feng Zhan and the other beasts.

  "Alright, alright. Since Little Kitty is not feeling well these days, I'll wait until you're more comfortable before we spar again! Haha, this king knows how to cherish and appreciate a beauty!" Feng Zhan said with a smile.

  "Get out!" Bai Xu bellowed, then jumped into Leng Ruoxue's arms, burying his head in her bosom and only exposing a small butt outside.

  "Huh!" Leng Ruo Xue stared at the small snowball in her arms, shocked and bewildered. Bai Xu really wasn't acting like himself, what had happened to him?

  "Xu'er, let's leave here!" The demon also noticed Bai Xue's unease and said.

  "Hmm." Cold as snow nodded and put all the beasts into the ring, then left with Yao Jiao on a small peacock.

  After returning to the room in Xiangyao Building, Leng Ruxue took Yougui directly into the ring, and Wu Zheng sat on the stone chair in front of Zizhu House waiting for them.

  "Congratulations!" He said after seeing their strength.

  "Thank you! You two chat first, I'll go take a look at Bai Xue." Leng Ruo Xue felt that Bai Xue's emotions were not quite right, and she was really a bit worried. After speaking, she rushed straight to Bai Xue's residence.

  "What's wrong with Bai Xu?" Wu asked somewhat puzzled, earlier when Xue Er was promoted, she closed the connection between the space and the outside world, so he wasn't very clear about what happened in the mountain valley!

  "I don't know, it's said that these days are inconvenient." The demon sat down beside Wu, somewhat speechless, he had heard for the first time that a male beast could also have inconvenient times, was it menopause?

  "Pffft!" Wu had just heard the demon's words and spat out a mouthful of tea he was drinking!

  "Calm down! That's what Bai Xu said himself." The demon hurriedly comforted.

  "Hmm! Xue Er's beasts are all very unusual." He came to an important conclusion.

  "Ah! They're all so good at acting!" The demon said with some gnashing of teeth. Sometimes, he hated Snowy's beastly friends to the point where his teeth itched, but then again, he was also grateful to them because they not only liked to compete with him for attention, but also protected Snowy. Alas! Complicated!

  "Haha!" Wu couldn't help but laugh at the sight of the demon, actually, he was very clear about this man's depression, but that was also an unavoidable thing, who let Snow's beasts all like their master so much!

  "What's so funny." The demoness glared at Wu with some annoyance.

  "Haha!" He laughed even louder!

  Accompanied by a bright and clear laughter, Leng Ruoxue arrived at the bamboo house where Bai Xiu lived, lightly knocked on the door a few times, then pushed open the door and walked in.

  Bai Xue was curled up into a ball in the corner of the bed, looking pitiful, and Leng Yue's heart ached at the sight.

  "Bai Xu!" Leng Ruo Xue walked to the bedside and hugged Bai Xu, who had curled up into a ball, in her arms.

  "Master!" The white Xu with a slight bow raised his small head, and the emerald eyes were filled with moisture, looking at Leng Ruoxue with a hint of grievance.

  "Huh? Bai Xue, what's wrong with you?" asked Leng Ruo Xue, somewhat puzzled. In her impression, Bai Xue wasn't the type to cry easily, so why was he being so fragile today?

  "I... today is my birthday, I miss home." Bai Xu said with a choked voice, sniffling... it's really too embarrassing, having stayed in the secret realm for so long, it never thought of home before. But after being with its master, seeing how warm and loving its master was with their family, it started to miss home too! Especially yesterday, when it remembered its own parents and those siblings who always played and fought with it.

  "Good boy, don't cry. Although you don't have your family with you now, you still have me as your master and all these beast companions!" Leng Ruoxue hastily coaxed, seeing Bai Xue in this state made her heart feel a bit uncomfortable too. Fortunately, she had always been together with her family, otherwise, she would probably be feeling the same sadness as Bai Xue.

  "Hmm." Bai Xue nodded her small head, the master was right, she wasn't lonely, she still had the master who loved her dearly, and so many beast companions!

  "Don't secretly be heartbroken by yourself, got it?" Leng Ruo Xue said half-commandingly. Alas! She thought she was very concerned about her own Beastie, but in fact, she didn't even notice Bai Xue's thoughts, what a failure! She wasn't a good master...

  "Hmm." Bai Xue replied cleverly.

  "Bai Xu, let's go out and celebrate your birthday together!" Leng Ruo Xue suggested, huh, she seemed to have never celebrated her own birthday before! It seems like no one around her has ever celebrated their birthday either!

  "It's nothing, Master." Bai Xue said with some embarrassment, it was really too humiliating, he actually cried in front of his master!

  "Why not?! Hehe, I've decided, Master. From now on, we'll celebrate the birthdays of all the people and beasts around us." Cold Snow said with a resolute tone, then hugged Bai Xue and left the bamboo house.

  Out of the bamboo house, Leng Ruo Xue carried Bai Xu to the table where Yao Jiao and Wu were sitting, put down Bai Xu on the table, then softly called: "Qing Jue!"

  "Sister!" Qing Jue appeared in front of Leng Ruo Xue and others.

  "Green General, summon all humans and beasts, I have something to announce!" Leng Ruoxue ordered.

  "Alright." Qing Jue replied, and then disappeared.

  Before long, Leng Ruo Han and others, as well as the various beasts, all walked out of their respective rooms.

  "Xuě ér, jiào wǒmen chūlái yǒu shénme shì ya?" zǒu dào Lěng Ruò Xuě de shēnbiān hòu, Lěng Ruò Hán yǒuxiē hǎoqí de wèn dào.

  Translation:

  "Xue Er, what's going on that you called us out here?" asked Cold Ruo Han with some curiosity as he walked to Cold Ruo Xue's side.

  "I have two things to announce. Firstly, I and You Yao have just been promoted to Xuan Wang! Of course, we directly advanced by taking the Silver Snow Pill, so you all must work hard in your cultivation and strive to become a great Xuan Master as soon as possible, then you can take the Silver Snow Pill too!" Leng Ruoxue announced with a smile.

  "Wow, Miss, is this true? It's really great!" Feng Da couldn't help but get excited as soon as Leng Ruo Xue finished speaking. This was indeed a good piece of news! Haha!

  "Of course it's true! When have I ever lied to you guys?" said Leng Ruo Xue with a pretended tone of dissatisfaction.

  "Haha, Xue'er, congratulations on advancing to the Mystic King rank!" Leng Ruo Han said with a smile, the stronger his sister became, the happier he was as her brother!

  "Brother, you will also become a Xuan Wang soon." Leng Ruoxue reminded, brother and others' qualifications are very good, advancing to Da Xuan Shi is only a matter of time.

  "En, I will work hard." Cold and unyielding determination was evident in his words. Xue Er had already become the Mystic King, he couldn't fall too far behind his sister. In fact, if not for wanting to spend more time with Xue Er, he would have gone into seclusion long ago.

  "Miss, what's the second thing?" Feng Da asked with some curiosity.

  "Secondly! And it's related to all of you, I've decided, Miss. From now on, we'll celebrate each and every one of your birthdays!" Leng Ruo Xue continued to announce.

  "Birthdays?" Everyone was stunned, and they all looked at Leng Ruoxue in surprise.

  "What's wrong?" asked Leng Ruo Xue, looking at their expressions with some confusion.

  "Miss, I'm just having a birthday." Feng Da scratched his head, somewhat at a loss for words. He wasn't a kid anymore, what's the point of celebrating birthdays?

  "Miss, I don't know my birthday, I'm an orphan!" Lin Yuan also said, from small to large he had never celebrated a birthday, because he simply didn't know what day his birthday was, and no one had ever given him one.

  "It doesn't matter, not knowing one's own birthday can be celebrated together with me." Leng Ruoxue said, these subordinates and beasts were all her family members, so she must let them feel the warmth of home, Bai Xue's incident cannot happen again!

  "I want to spend a day with my sister." Qing Jue said happily, he was a tool spirit and didn't have birthdays.

  "Alright, anyone who doesn't know what day their birthday is can celebrate with me on the same day." Leng Ruoxue repeated.

  "Sister, I don't remember my birthday," Baby said with some grievance, sob... It was born without memory, so it couldn't remember which day its own birthday is.

  "Hehe, baby, can you spend a birthday with your sister for one day?" Leng Ruoxue coaxed.

  "Uh-huh." The baby nodded its little head, giggling. It wants to have a birthday on the same day as its sister! It's so happy!

  "Those of you who know your birthdays, tell Qing Jue the date, and those who want to celebrate with me on the same day, also tell him. Qing Jue, from now on, you have to remind my sister at all times!" Leng Ruo Xue said to everyone, including the beasts, before instructing Qing Jue again.

  "Alright." Qing Jue nodded and replied.

  "Today is Bai Xu's birthday, so in a while we will celebrate Bai Xu's birthday. Now everyone go prepare, later we have to give Bai Xu birthday gifts!" Leng Ruo Xue said with a smile, although it was already very late, but birthdays only come once a year, so as long as it hasn't passed midnight, it still counts as celebrating on the same day.

  "Alright, alright!" Everyone heard this news and hurriedly ran back to their own rooms to prepare!

  "Xue Er, I also want to spend a birthday with you." The demon who had been silent all along suddenly spoke up.

  "Huh? You've also forgotten your own birthday?" Leng Ruo Xue teased with a light laugh.

  "No, but I just want to spend a day with you." The demon said somewhat arrogantly, seeing others or beasts spending the birthday with Xue'er made him jealous, so he also wanted to spend a day with Xue'er!

  "Alright, you can spend a day with me too, is that enough?" Leng Ruoxue said somewhat helplessly.

  "Nothing, and you?" Cold-as-Snow turned her gaze towards Wu, then asked again.

  "Hmm! I've lived for too long, I've already forgotten what day my birthday is." He said with some embarrassment. Others might not remember their birthdays because they're still young and don't have a sense of time, but he had lived for so long that he'd actually forgotten... Ugh, this was just too humiliating.

  "I don't remember either." Bing Qi said with a hint of melancholy, sigh! In this realm, there is only one Qilin, it doesn't even have any relatives, so sometimes it really envies those dragons and phoenixes, they have so many relatives...

  "Alright, you all come with me." Leng Ruo Xue hastily said, sigh! She had said too much, she really feared that these two would directly cry out loud!

  "Hmm." Wu and Bingji hastily nodded in response.

  However, today is Bai Xu's birthday, so you guys hurry up and prepare a birthday gift. Leng Ruo Xue urged.

  "Xue Er, what birthday gift are you planning to give?" Wu asked curiously, he didn't know what kind of birthday gift to give the white tiger. What do tigers like? He had saved up many good things, but didn't know what to give. Worrisome!

  "I won't tell you, you'll know soon enough. Besides, birthday gifts are just a token of your thoughtfulness, they don't have to be expensive!" Ling Ruo Xue reminded her, then pulled the little demon away to help her.

  Looking at Bai Xue who was lying on the table, he hesitated for half a day before opening his mouth to ask: "Bai Xue, is there anything you want as a gift?"

  "I don't know!" Bai Xu furrowed his brow and thought for a moment before speaking.

  "Hmm! What should I give you then?" No worries, hmm... what's good to give?

  "It doesn't matter if nothing is sent." Bai Xu said, heh heh, as long as they have this intention, it's already very heartwarming, and what's sent really isn't a concern.

  "How can that be? Let me think carefully!" He leaned against his chin, thinking.

  "Master, help me send some too!" Bing Qi reminded, wu... it's not like I have any family property!

  "Uh-huh." She nodded slightly and continued thinking.

  After a long time, all the people and animals who had prepared gifts gathered in front of the purple bamboo house again.

  "Where's the master?" Mei asked curiously, not seeing Leng Ruoxue anywhere.

  "She went to prepare a gift." He didn't say a word, humming... He still hasn't thought of what to give!

  "Oh." Mei nodded, her heart full of anticipation. Although today wasn't her birthday, she was still very curious what gift Master would give to Bai Xue.

  Feng Da and others saw that the young lady had not returned, so they took the initiative to undertake the task of preparing food. As a result, the silver snow fish in the pool were once again affected. Moreover, they almost spared no fish, shrimp, or crab in every pool...

  After they finished preparing food, Leng Ruoxue and Yao Jiao also returned together.

  "Wow! You guys are really fast eaters!" Leng Ruoxue looked at the tables filled with food, her tongue clicking in amazement. "Are you planning to eat for several days? Can you finish all this?" She couldn't help but wonder if she was mistaken, hadn't they just finished eating the Silver Snow Fish banquet not long ago?!

  "Haha, isn't today Bai Xu's birthday? Of course, I have to prepare more!" Feng Da scratched his head and smiled foolishly.

  "Can you eat it?" asked Leng Ruoxue curiously.

  "Don't worry, don't worry, I can even eat a cow's head without any problem." Lin Yuan hurriedly assured.

  "Hmm, alright then, if we can't finish it, no one is allowed to sleep." Leng Ruoxue said very seriously, she was the most hated waste.

  "Don't worry, master, we can finish it," Ling guaranteed, having not eaten too much at the previous Silver Snow Fish banquet and now having another chance to gorge themselves.

  "I can see it now, you're all foodies!" Leng Ruoxue said with some helplessness.

  "Heh heh!" Everyone and all the beasts laughed foolishly together.

  "Huh? Where's our birthday star?" Leng Ruoxue looked around but couldn't find any trace of Bai Xu.

  "Master, I'm here." Bai Xue said with a somewhat embarrassed tone, poking his small head out from the corner.

  "What are you hiding for? Are you shy?" asked Leng Ruo Xue as she pulled Bai Xu out, teasing him.

  "I didn't." Bai Xue wouldn't admit it, but he was actually feeling a bit shy. Ugh... He wasn't young anymore, and it was just a birthday, so why did he feel embarrassed? This was really abnormal!

  "Good, no." Leng Ruo Xue didn't expose it either and directly put it on the table. She took out a small birthday hat from her ring and brought it to Bai Xu's head.

  "Miss, what's this?" Feng Da asked with some curiosity. The thing Miss wore on Bai Xue's head he had never seen before!

  "This is called a birthday hat, and you will wear it when you have birthdays in the future." Leng Ruo Xue explained, she remembered that in her past life, whenever someone had a birthday, they would wear something like this, so she also got one for Bai Xu, heh heh, it feels pretty good!

  "Hehe, quite good-looking." Leng Ruo Han looked at Bai Xu with a hint of shyness and praised.

  "Thank you, master." Bai Xue said gratefully, his bright green eyes becoming slightly moist again.

  "Idiot, I still have a gift!" Cold-as-Snow took out another table from the ring and placed it on the ground, then brought out a half-person-high large cake and put it on top.

  "Master, what is this?" Bai Xue asked with a hint of curiosity, her bright green eyes wide open. Mmm, it smells so good! Is it edible?

  "This is called birthday cake, eaten on birthdays." Leng Ruo Xue continued to explain that she had been in this other world for almost two years and it was her first time making a birthday cake. In the past when her grandfather's birthday came around, she only made him longevity noodles once. At that time, there were no conditions to make cakes, but later after she refined an oven, she didn't have the time because either she or her grandfather would be in seclusion and they couldn't get together. However, after this time, she had already decided that from now on, for everyone's and every beast's birthday, as long as she had the time, she would make them a birthday cake to celebrate.

  "Master, thank you... waaah..." Bai Xue burst into tears, overcome with emotion.

  "Hmm, Bai Xue, why are you crying again?" Leng Ruo Xue said with some helplessness. Alas! It's just a cake, and yet it made Bai Xue cry, what can be done about this?!

  "Master, I'm so happy." Bai Xue choked with sobs, crying even harder, the fluff on her body was wet in patches.

  "Don't cry anymore, okay? Be good, everyone is watching you!" Leng Ruo Xue hugged Bai Xu, who was crying uncontrollably, and cooed.

  "Hey, kitty! What are you crying about? This doesn't suit your personality at all! Don't lose face in front of Beast!" Feng said with a hint of mockery. In fact, it was secretly envying Bai Xue, who had never had anyone celebrate its birthday from young to old.

  "Dead bird, I'm glad to cry, mind your own business!" Bai Xu wiped away the tears on his face with his small paws and shouted at Feng Zhan in a somewhat angry tone.

  "I'm doing this for your own good, don't be ungrateful!" Feng Zhan said with great resentment.

  "Hum! Who wants your feelings?" Bai Xu said disapprovingly.

  "Alright, you two stop arguing. Bai Xue, today is your birthday, come blow out the candles quickly." Leng Ruo Xue lit up the candles on the cake and urged him.

  "Oh!" Bai Xue cleverly responded, then gently blew out the candle.

  "Haha, Bai Xu, happy birthday! This is a gift from me and Yao Jiao to you!" Leng Ruo Xue said with a smile, handing over an exquisitely wrapped present.

  "Thank you." Bai Xue hugged the gift that Leng Ruo Xue had given it with its small paws, overjoyed. Heh heh, if it wasn't mistaken, this should be the first time it had ever received a gift since it was little.

  "Happy Birthday!"

  "Happy Birthday!"

  Everyone and all the beasts learned from Leng Ruo Xue's example, then they each presented their own prepared gifts. In the blink of an eye, Bai Xu's front was piled high with gifts.

  "Thank you." Bai Xu choked again, and a hint of moisture appeared in his bright green eyes.

  "Kitty, this is a gift for you, I'm sure you'll like it." Feng Zhan also took out his own prepared gift and specially put it in Bai Xue's arms.

  "Thanks a lot, dead bird!" Bai Xu said with annoyance.

  "Don't be polite, you'll also give me one on my birthday, huh! The master says it's called 'gift-giving etiquette'!" Feng Zhan said with a hint of pride.

  "The gifts have all been given out, everyone can cut the cake now." Leng Ruoxue hastily urged, lest these two start fighting again.

  "Miss, I'll do it." Feng Da said, then picked up the knife on the table and cut the cake into several small pieces, distributing them to all the people and beasts.

  Everyone and all the beasts were eating sweet cakes, tasting delicious food, chatting, and having a great time!

  Time passed minute by minute, and when they finished celebrating Bai Xue's birthday, it was almost dawn outside the courtyard. Seeing that it was getting late, Leng Ruoxue urged everyone to hurry up and rest, while she pulled Yao Jiao back to the Purple Bamboo House...

  Leng Ruo Xue and others almost didn't sleep all night, while in the carefree city of Dan Shifu General Assembly, there were also people who didn't sleep!

  In the Great Hall of the Dan School Association.

  Sun Wei sat at the head of the conference table with a gloomy expression on his handsome face, while several senior members of the General Assembly sat below him. The other elders and former presidents had been locked up by him, so there were not many people in the General Assembly who could do things for him now!

  "How is it? Have you found him?" Sun Wei suppressed his anger and asked the subordinate standing in the center of the hall.

  "Young master, Sun's family backyard has been cleaned up, but no trace of Zheng En was found." A man in his thirties reported.

  "Didn't find it? Keep looking!" Sun Wei ordered, his voice somewhat furious. Humph! Today's big explosion in the Sun family's backyard must have been done by Zheng En's accomplices. Although a male corpse was found in the cell, and its body shape was very similar to Zheng En's, he didn't believe that person was Zheng En. Because that person had been blown up by the exploding cell and was already unrecognizable. Humph! He had been chasing and killing Zheng En for over ten years, and Zheng En was still alive and well, so he didn't believe Zheng En would die so easily! Moreover, Du Min, who was being held captive in the Dan Shifu General Assembly, had also disappeared, which made him even more unlikely to believe that Zheng En was dead.

  "Young master, the Sun family's other courtyard and the Dan Shifu General Assembly have all been searched, but no signs of anyone escaping were found. However, I believe they may have already left Xiangyang City!" The man analyzed.

  "It's impossible, their movements won't be that swift! They must still be in Xiangyang City, starting tomorrow you will search the entire city for me!" Sun Wei negated his subordinate's inference and commanded.

  "A city-wide search?" The man was taken aback and asked in surprise.

  "What's wrong?" Sun Wei asked with a hint of displeasure, his eyes wide with inquiry.

  "Master, a full-scale search of the city might not be advisable. After all, this is Xiangyang City, and if we were to conduct a thorough search, those cultivators would not agree with it." The man reminded him that this was not Sunzhou City, and if the people from the Sun family were too arrogant in Xiangyang City, the cultivators would definitely intervene.

  "Master Xuan will take care of it, you don't have to worry, just search for it!" Sun Wei said somewhat impatiently. Humph! Master Xuan can ask Auntie to come out and settle the matter, so he didn't put those masters' reactions in his eyes at all.

  "Yes." The man replied, then turned and left.

  "Chairman, Du Min is also missing, will he come back to cause us trouble?" The elderly man who was sitting asked with some concern after the man left.

  "Hmph! Everyone has run away, now you're worried, what's the use? I've told you all before to send more people to watch him, but none of you took it seriously." Sun Wei said coldly, although he was furious with these elders, for now, he still needed their support, so he could only endure.

  "Chairman, this can't be blamed on us! No one found out how he was rescued, the guards at the door didn't see anyone entering that room except for Miss Lan Ning'er." Another elder spoke up.

  "Are you saying Ning Er let Du Ming out?" Sun Wei asked sternly.

  "Heh heh, President, Elder Wang didn't mean it that way. However, Miss Lan Ning did indeed have the intention of releasing Du Ming from his position. This is something everyone knows. I wonder if it's possible that Du Ming agreed to take Miss Lan as his apprentice, and Miss Lan was afraid we wouldn't agree to let him go, so she secretly released him?" said an elder wearing black clothes.

  "It's impossible! If Ning'er wanted to let him go, she would have told me." Sun Wei said with great certainty, because he had discussed it with Ning'er and, out of consideration for her face, could have released Du Min as long as Du Min was willing to accept her as his apprentice. However, according to what he knew, Ning'er had never been able to persuade Du Min to take her on as an apprentice! So, Ning'er would absolutely not let that old man go.
