Chapter Eighty Doesn't Understand Cherishing Talents

  "I've always thought that Mo sister is a clever person, so I believe she'll handle it well. Leng Ruoxue thought for a moment and said, 'It's hard for an honest official to mediate family affairs', let alone her being just an outsider. However, she believed that with her support and encouragement, those women who wanted to be the third party would not be Mo Yingyue's match."

  "Uh, I won't let those women succeed." Mo Yingyue's determination was firm, and with Ruoxue's encouragement, her fighting spirit immediately became high-spirited. She absolutely wouldn't let other women snatch away her man, absolutely not!

  "Sister Mo, it's getting late, let's head back."

  "Alright, I'll see you out." Mo Yingyue hastily stood up and said.

  "Eldest sister Mo, no need to be so polite." said Leng Ruo Xue declining.

  "I couldn't bear to part with Ruo Xue's sister." Mo Yingyue said with a smile, her mood having adjusted already.

  Mo Yingyue sent Leng Ruoxue and the two of them left Fengqu Palace, until they sat on the back of Yu, disappearing without a trace, before reluctantly turning around to go back.

  After returning to the General's Mansion, Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Nie arrived at the living room, where Feng Da and others were waiting for them.

  "Miss."

  "Feng Da, how's the preparation for De Yi Building going?" asked Leng Ruo Xue as she sat down in her seat.

  "Miss, it's almost done, we can open on time in three days." Feng Dabing reported.

  "Hmm, right, have all the notices been sent out?" asked Leng Ruo Xue.

  "The message has been sent out, General will be back tomorrow."

  "Alright, it's getting late today. Everyone should go back to their rooms and rest. The next few days will be busy." Leng Ruoxue raised her eyes and swept a glance at the crowd in the living room.

  "Yes." Everyone hastily replied.

  "Monster, I plan to go into seclusion for the next few days to refine some defensive sacred artifacts for 'De Yi Lou'. If it's not something important, don't disturb me." Leng Ruo Xue said thoughtfully to the monster.

  "Alright." The demon reluctantly nodded.

  After returning to her room, she directly entered the 'Qian Kun Ring'.

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

  "Green wine." Leng Ruoxue picked up the delicate doll in front of her and pinched that tender little face.

  "Sister, you're teasing me again." Qing Jue pouted with her delicate pink lips and complained.

  "Sister, where is she?" Cold as snow, awkwardly put down the green wine cup. This dead child, why grow up to be so cute for no reason? Tell me, which adult wouldn't want to pinch this adorable little thing's cheeks?

  "Girl, I didn't know you were so flirtatious too." The shiny butterfly said with a look of sudden realization and a pleased expression as if she had found a kindred spirit.

  "Shame on you!" Cold-as-Snow slapped away that extremely rude butterfly and said angrily.

  "Ugh... You're really too rough, as a girl you must be gentle, otherwise you won't find a husband." The butterfly that was swatted away flew back again, advising with a heavy heart.

  "Get out!" Leng Ruoxue said, unable to bear it any longer. What a dead butterfly!

  "Girl!" The butterfly looked at the furious Leng Ruo Xue with tears in her eyes, not understanding why. This... it didn't do anything wrong, did it? It was all telling the truth!

  "Qing Jue, sister has gone to refine her equipment, this dead butterfly is handed over to you." Leng Ruo Xue turned her head to Qing Jue and said, then directly walked into the Purple Bamboo House.

  "Alright." Qing Jue glanced at the wronged butterfly and hastily responded. In fact, he had no way to deal with this butterfly either. He had locked it up countless times, but it was impossible to keep it captive. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but carefully examine the butterfly again.

  "You... why are you staring at me like that? I'll be embarrassed." Butterfly said with a coquettish face.

  The black lines on Qing Jue's head were full, and with a flick of his small hand, he directly trapped the thick-skinned butterfly into the spatial cage he had set up.

  However, before long, the butterfly fluttered back again!

  Qing Jue looked at the palm-sized butterfly with some disappointment and a face full of gloom. Why was this? How could it be like this? To think that every corner of the 'Dry Universe Ring' was within his control, yet he couldn't do anything about this one butterfly...

  He's a divine artifact spirit! A divine artifact spirit, the level is unknown how many times higher than this dead butterfly, however, the result was extremely cruel, undeniable, this butterfly struck him...

  After entering the refining room in the Purple Bamboo House, Leng Ruo Xue did not immediately start refining. Instead, she first thought about what kind of object she wanted to refine. Apart from the defensive sacred objects, there were also those used by the General's Manor now, and the things she had refined in her previous life - each one needed to be refined again. And then there was the cauldron... After thinking for a moment, she found that there were so many things she wanted to refine!

  Leng Ruo Xue had already prepared the materials for crafting various items and equipment, then she focused on refining what she needed...

  By the time Leng Ruoxue had refined everything, she left the Qiankun Ring and found that two days had already passed outside.

  "You little monster, what are you doing sitting here?" Cold Snow opened the door to find the little monster sitting on the stone steps outside her room, looking pitiful.

  "Xu?r." The demon raised his head, and in the bright, black diamond-like eyes, two tears welled up, looking pitifully and wronged at Cold-as-Snow.

  "What's going on here?" asked Leng Ruo Xue with a puzzled expression.

  "Grandpa is back, and he's brought back a stunningly handsome young man, an old rascal." The demon explained in a soft voice.

  "What's wrong?" Cold Snow didn't understand. Had she been bullied? But she couldn't believe anyone could bully the demon.

  "That old rascal is the master of that pretty boy, he says he wants to be closely related to Grandfather." The demon explained, as if on the verge of tears.

  "Pfft!" Leng Ruo Xue couldn't help but laugh out loud. After all the fuss, it turned out that Yao Jiao had drunk vinegar again.

  "You're still smiling! You're also bullying me." The demon was extremely wronged, with tears constantly welling up in her eyes.

  "I don't have any." Leng Ruo Xue was somewhat speechless. Why did everyone keep saying this lately? She was such a good kid!

  "Xuě ér, someone's come to fight for you again, wū... what to do?" The demon looked at Leng Ruò Xuè with a somewhat helpless expression, his mind constantly thinking about when Xuě would truly belong to him. The demon was anxious, this opponent wasn't easy to deal with.

  "Let's go see Grandpa! Now that Grandpa is back, let's go take a look!" Leng Ruoxue said with a glance at the tense Yaoxie, who looked rather cute in this state.

  "Oh, Xue Er, you're not allowed to have a crush on any other man!" the demon warned anxiously.

  "Am I so easily tempted by beauty?" Cold-as-Snow White shot back a glance at the demon, asking in return.

  "No." If it were true, he would have succeeded long ago, and the demon is secretly scheming in his heart.

  "What's there for you to worry about."

  "Uh-huh, I believe Xue Er." The demon said with a relieved tone, but in fact, he was just pretending to be pitiful. Otherwise, why would Xue Er feel sorry for him?

  Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jiao arrived at Grandfather's study, but before they entered, they heard the lively conversation inside, with constant laughter and chatter.

  "Grandfather!" Leng Ruoxue knocked on the door and called out.

  "Xue'er, come in!" Leng Qingtian hurriedly said upon hearing his beloved granddaughter's voice.

  Two people pushed open the door and walked in. Leng Ruo Xue raised her eyes to survey the situation inside the study, only to see that there were four people inside. Apart from Grandfather and Brother, there were two strangers. One of them was about the same age as Grandfather, with a round face, ordinary features, and a rounded body. He didn't seem to be very tall, and his aura was introverted, with a strength at the level of a Spiritual Master.

  Another one, about twenty years old, with a handsome appearance, starry eyes like the moon, noble and extraordinary temperament, and not low in strength, is a high-level spirit emperor. They are the two master-disciple pairs that the demon said, no wonder the demon would treat him as a love rival. This young man is top-notch in terms of appearance, temperament, and strength.

  At the time when Leng Ruoxue was sizing them up, the two master and apprentice were also sizing her up...

  "Xue'er, let Grandpa introduce you. This old man is Grandpa's old friend, just call him Yu Grandpa. And this is Yu Old Man's apprentice, Dongfang Yun." Leng Qingtian made a simple introduction.

  "Yu Lao Tou, Dong Fang Xian Zhu, she is my granddaughter, cold as snow." Leng Jing Tian continued to say, with a proud face.

  "Ah, Old Lao, your granddaughter is indeed just like the rumors outside, she's a perfect match for my disciple." said with satisfaction on his face.

  "Master!" Dongfang Yun looked at his master with some embarrassment, then turned to look at Leng Ruxue.

  "Sorry, Miss Leng, my master likes to joke." Dongfang Yun said with a very gentlemanly smile, his master's words were really too embarrassing, he couldn't help but complain in his heart.

  "It's okay, I understand." Leng Ruoxue said indifferently, glancing at the fat old man who looked like a ball. This old man was obviously doing it on purpose, although Leng Ruoxue didn't know why he wanted to do so.

  "It's fine as long as Miss Leng doesn't blame me." Dongfang Yun said with a good temper, not paying any attention to Leng Ruo Xue's coldness. In fact, if Leng Ruo Xue was like other women who would immediately swarm around him like flies when they saw him, he wouldn't even bother with her.

  "Grandpa, our 'De Yi Lou' is opening tomorrow." Leng Ruo Xue reminded.

  "Xue Er, Grandpa specifically rushed back for this." By the way, he also brought back two freeloaders, and I don't know if Xue Er will be angry. Leng Qing Tian thought to himself with some fear.

  "Grandpa, Xue'er has left first, you all continue chatting!" Leng Ruoxue couldn't help but find it a bit amusing to see her grandpa's cautious appearance, and after saying that, she pulled the sulking Yao Jiao and turned to leave.

  "I say, Old Lao, why is your granddaughter so easily embarrassed?" Lao asked with some disappointment. He still wanted to let that girl and his good apprentice cultivate their feelings for each other!

  "Do you think everyone has a face as thick as yours? I've told you before, don't talk nonsense, my granddaughter already has a fiancé, and you're still saying that!" Leng Qingtian glared at his old friend with some dissatisfaction.

  "I just want to give your precious granddaughter more options, that's all! After all, she hasn't gotten married yet, anything is possible!" Old Man Yu said with a thick-skinned smile.

  Leng Qingtian shook his head helplessly. He really had no way to deal with this old friend who still had a mischievous personality.

  "Look at you, your pouted mouth can hang an oil bottle." As they walked out of the study and into the garden, Leng Ruo Xue couldn't help but tease.

  "Xue Er, have you also seen that Dongfang Yun?" the demon asked in a somewhat hushed tone.

  "What's the point of seeing it?" Cold Snow asked back with some helplessness, was this demon thinking too much? At present, her greatest wish is to become stronger, who has the heart to think about other things! If she really wanted to find a man, she would have knocked down the demon long ago.

  "You're not allowed to like him! You can only like me."

  “……”

  "I don't like him, okay?!" Leng Ruo Xue replied somewhat helplessly.

  "You can only like me." The demon reminded with great dissatisfaction, Ugh... Xue Er was really too careless, actually appeasing him, how heart-wrenching!

  "You damned thing, if you keep nagging me, I won't even want you anymore." Cold Snow threatened.

  "Just don't mention it." The demon looked at Leng Ruo Xue with a fearful expression, and said in a wronged tone.

  "Okay! Now come with me to the Wind family!"

  "Why go to the Wind House?" Why are you still going to the Wind House? It's said that Feng Mo Ran has already moved into the General's Manor, but I heard he was kicked out of the Wind House.

  "He has formally allied with the Great Elder." explained Leng Ruoxue.

  "Oh."

  After the two arrived at the main house of the Feng family, the great elder of the Feng family directly led them to the secret room of the Feng family. After entering the secret room, the great elder of the Feng family formally formed an alliance with Leng Ruoxue on behalf of the Feng family and agreed not to betray each other, with heaven and earth as witnesses. Otherwise, they would be killed by the rules of heaven and earth.

  After forming an alliance, Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jiao hurried back to the General's Manor.

  The living room of General's Mansion.

  "Feng Da, here, everything needed for the restaurant is inside." Leng Ruo Xue handed Feng Da a storage ring.

  "I'll go and get everything ready now." Feng Da took the ring and hastily turned around to leave.

  "Yao Jie, let's go sit in the garden for a bit!" Leng Ruo Xue said to Yao Jie, who had been sulking all along, now that everything was arranged.

  "Good."

  Two people came to the pavilion in the garden, and before they had even warmed their seats, Leng Ruohan brought Dongfang Yun over.

  "Xue Er, you're here too!" Leng Ruo Han said with some helplessness. This was really too coincidental. He knew that Ye Chen didn't like Dong Fang Yun, so he had originally wanted to let the two of them avoid each other. But unexpectedly, they still ran into each other. Weren't you supposed to have left the manor? How did you come back so quickly?

  "Brother, since we've met, let's sit together!" said Leng Ruoxue as she leaned into Yaoxie's arms.

  "Alright." Lan Huan pulled Dongfang Yun down to sit together.

  "Leng Xiaojie, let's have a match sometime!" Dongfang Yun said with some anticipation as he looked at Leng Ruoxue.

  "Dongfang Gongzi, if you're looking for someone to spar with, I can recommend someone whose strength is about the same as yours," suggested Leng Ruoxue.

  "Does Miss Leng look down on my strength?" Dongfang Yun said with a light smile.

  "You're no match for me." Cold as snow, Shang looked up and down at Dongfang Yun, without giving him any face.

  "How would you know if you don't try?" Dongfang Yun said somewhat displeased, being looked down upon by a woman like this couldn't help but slightly hurt his proud self-esteem.

  "Then I'll give you a chance." Leng Ruoxue saw that he wouldn't give up, so she decided to go along with him.

  "Go to the martial arts arena!" Leng Ruoxue said, leading the way to the General's Manor martial arts arena.

  "Xue Er, you're not allowed to hold back." The demon walked up to Leng Ruo Xue's side and reminded her in a low voice after they arrived at the training grounds.

  "Don't worry, when dealing with arrogant and conceited men, I've never been lenient." Leng Ruoxue said seriously, for example, with Huo Qing, she had never been soft on him.

  "Go on, go on, you must beat him until he's picking his teeth off the ground." The demon said with a wicked heart.

  "He's Grandpa's friend's apprentice, beating him up too badly isn't good, let's give him some face!" said Leng Ruoxue very kindly.

  "Alright! Cheer up, Xue Er."

  When Leng Ruo Xue and Dong Fang Yun stood on the training grounds, the people from Lie Yan Mercenary Group who were originally training also gathered around.

  "Go for it, miss!"

  "Go for it, miss!"

  The mercenaries of the Blazing Flame Mercenary Corps were all enthusiastically cheering for their own goddess!

  "It seems you have a lot of followers." Dongfang Yun said with some envy, these people all had quite a bit of spirit.

  "They are all mercenaries of my mercenary group, and they will naturally support me." Lan Ruo Xue explained.

  "Let's get started! You first!" Dongfang Yun said with great elegance.

  Are all men like this? Leng Ruo Xue was somewhat speechless and rolled her eyes, thinking that the fate of a woman who underestimated others could be quite miserable.

  "Take it! 'Fire Phoenix Feather'!" Cold as snow, she lightly shouted and instantly released a fire attribute spiritual power. Since the opponent was a high-level Spiritual Emperor, she directly used a Heavenly level spiritual technique.

  Dongfang Yun looked at the beautiful feathers flying towards him, not daring to be careless in the slightest. He had heard of Leng Ruoxue's ruthlessness long ago, so he was fully prepared for this battle with her.

  Dongfang Yun saw that the feather was approaching him, so he hastily set up a curtain wall. This curtain wall was composed of water-based spiritual energy, and water can overcome fire. The cold-as-snow fire-attribute spiritual energy encountered his water-based spiritual energy, which could be considered as encountering its nemesis...

  But will things really turn out as he wishes?

  When the icy feathers pierced through the veil of Eastern Cloud's water screen and flew straight towards him, Eastern Cloud was stunned for a moment. Although it was only for a few short seconds, when he came back to his senses, the feather had already arrived in front of his eyes, staring at him with an unblinking gaze...

  Dongfang Yun felt a bit depressed at this situation, although he didn't want to admit it. He knew he had already lost, but what did this little guy mean? Why wasn't he attacking? Leng Xue's spiritual power was so spirited, as if waiting for something...

  As it turned out, he had actually guessed correctly. The small feather was waiting for its master's command and would be responsible for burning the man's clothes to ashes with just one order...

  However, Leng Ruo Xue would absolutely never know about this small thought in her mind, because if she knew, she would absolutely not give this order...

  But...

  As Dongfang Yun let out a loud cry, everyone saw that his body suddenly caught fire, and in an instant, his clothes were reduced to ashes by the flames, revealing his perfect physique...

  After burning the clothes, the flames disappeared.

  Dongfang Yun also fainted.

  “……”

  Everyone present looked at this incredible scene in astonishment, and then some of them looked at Leng Ruoxue with a hint of horror.

  "What are you looking at me like that for?" Leng Ruoxue shouted in annoyance. What kind of eyes were they? It really infuriated her.

  "Xue Er, you really don't know how to cherish and appreciate good things." Leng Ruo Han said with some reproach, but in her heart she was delighted. Xue Er was simply too formidable... specializing in burning men's clothes.

  Fortunately, Leng Ruo Xue couldn't hear her brother's inner voice, otherwise she would have been so depressed that she could die.

  "Xue Er, his figure is not as good as mine." The demon said with a hint of resentment, looking at Leng Ruo Xue with dissatisfaction.

  "Oh, wait, what does this have to do with her figure?" Leng Ruo Xue's forehead dripped with cold sweat. Heaven! Did they think she did it on purpose?

  "If you want to see, just look at mine, don't burn other men's clothes!" The demon's low voice said, burning with jealousy.

  Good heavens! Leng Ruo Xue was speechless, she felt so wronged! Could she say that she hadn't intended to burn Dong Fang Yun's clothes? Could she say it was just an accident? She had only wanted to teach the arrogant Dong Fang Yun a small lesson, but, but, she didn't know how things would turn out like this.

  "Xu'er, let's go too!" The demon child said to Xu'er as he saw Leng Ruo Han ordering people to take Dongfang Yun away.

  "Let's go." Leng Ruo Xue felt very weak, she didn't know how to clear her own name, wu...how could it be like this?

  After leaving the martial arts arena, Leng Ruo Xue returned to her room in a gloomy mood, while Yao Jiao took the initiative to visit Dongfang Yun.

  "Xue Er!" Leng Qing Tian called out at his granddaughter's door.

  "Grandfather, come in, the door is not locked." said Leng Ruoxue softly.

  "Xue'er, you can just argue with each other, why did you have to burn someone's clothes?" Leng Qingtian looked at his beloved granddaughter and said somewhat helplessly, now it's all right, she's been framed!

  "Grandpa, it was just an accident, I didn't do it on purpose." Lan Ruoxue said, puzzled, she couldn't figure out why her spiritual power suddenly stopped listening to her.

  "Grandpa of course knows you didn't mean to, but..." Leng Qingtian found it difficult to continue, and stopped mid-sentence.

  "But what? Grandfather, is Dongfang Yun okay?" Leng Ruxue couldn't help but ask. She had only used 30% of her spiritual power, which would at most cause him some superficial injuries and wouldn't be fatal. So, Dongfang Yun should have just fainted from fright.

  "It's nothing if it's nothing, but for Old Man Yu, he won't let you off the hook, and must shout at you to take responsibility." Leng Qingtian said with a bitter smile.

  "What am I supposed to be responsible for?" asked Leng Ruoxue with some confusion, as she herself had acted with great restraint.

  "Old man said that his apprentice was seen through by you, and you have to take responsibility." Leng Qingtian twitched the corner of his mouth and said helplessly, he also felt that this reason was too far-fetched, what's the big deal about a man?

  "Grandpa, I'm not interested in Dongfang Yun." Leng Ruoxue said directly, and she was also afraid that the demon would find out about this matter again... so it's better to clarify early.

  "This old man certainly knows, but that Old Yu is not easy to entangle with. Once he's made up his mind, he won't give up easily." Leng Qing Tian reminded him, in fact, he didn't think that Dongfang Yun was suitable for his precious granddaughter either. He thought it would be better if his grandson-in-law was more obedient and listened to him like Ye Chen, so as not to bully Xue Er.

  "I'm not that easy to be taken advantage of either." Leng Ruoxue said with a smile that was not quite a smile, daring anyone who dared to make decisions for her would regret it.

  "Xue Er, after all, that old man is Grandpa's friend, you must show mercy!" Leng Qing Tian reminded, also indirectly pleading for his own old friend.

  "Don't worry, Grandfather, I will show mercy." said Leng Ruo Xue.

  "That's good, by the way, Xue Er, about the imperial palace..." asked Leng Jing Tian curiously.

  "Grandfather, the current emperor is Li Yuan, and Li Xun has already abdicated." Leng Ruoxue explained simply.

  "What about Li Yu?"

  "Was caught by Li Yuanguo."

  "Xue Er, does this have anything to do with you?"

  "There's just one thing, I just went along with it, after all, I'm a good citizen!"

  "Xue Er, the imperial family's ancestor is not easy to deal with." Leng Jing Tian couldn't help but remind.

  "Uh, I've already met that old man."

  "Did he make things difficult for you?" Leng Qingtian asked somewhat anxiously, knowing his granddaughter's abilities but still couldn't help worrying as her grandfather.

  "No."

  "That's good, Xue Er, Grandfather is leaving." said Leng Qing Tian after understanding the situation.

  "Hmm." Leng Ruoxue escorted Grandfather out of Tingxue Pavilion.

  "Xuě er." Hearing the demon's voice, Cold-as-Snow turned around, and the demon was standing not far away, looking at her.

  "Don't be afraid! It's okay." Leng Ruoxue walked forward and patted the demon's head, comforting it.

  "Uh-huh." The demon nodded heavily, convinced that Xue'er would absolutely not like that proud peacock. A beauty trap would be useless on Xue'er, this was his experience.

  "Go to bed early tonight, we are the hosts tomorrow." Ling Ruo Xue reminded.

  "I know."

  Alright, alright, you little demon, they both went back to their rooms to sleep.

  The next day was the opening day of 'De Yi Building'.

  Leng Ruoxue and others, as the hosts, naturally arrived early at 'De Yi Lou'.

  "Grandfather, Uncle Yu, let's go in and take a look!" At the entrance of the restaurant, Leng Ruoxue ignored Dongfang Yun's resentful gaze and spoke directly to the two elders.

  "Alright, but Snowy, you're my apprentice..."

  "Grandpa Yu, our guests will be arriving soon, let's go in first!" Leng Ruo Xue interrupted Old Man Yu and reminded him.

  "Alright then!" The old man said with a flattering tone. Hum! Little girl, you can't pretend to be stupid!

  Leng Ruo Xue and others entered the store, under Feng Da's leadership they toured the entire 'De Yi Building' after which almost everyone's face showed an expression of astonishment, because this was really beyond everyone's expectations. Apart from the exquisite and grand interior decoration, many things were unheard of by most people.

  "Miss, how is it?" Feng Da asked with some tension, looking at Leng Ruo Xue. Everything here was designed by the miss and he had supervised its completion, so he was afraid that she would be dissatisfied.

  "Not bad, I'm satisfied."

  "Miss, the Queen has arrived." At this time, Lin Yuan came in from outside to report.

  "Please ask Sister Mo to come in directly!" Leng Ruo Xue ordered.

  "What a beautiful place!" Mo Yingyue couldn't help but exclaim as soon as she stepped into the store.

  "It's fine as long as sister Mo likes it."

  "I like it, of course I like it." Mo Yingyue said sincerely. The feeling here is actually more comfortable than in the imperial palace, which is really unbelievable.

  "It's just so-so in my opinion."
