Chapter 122: Chapter 90: Why Does Your Soul Lamp Keep Flickering? (6k)_4

The Third Senior Brother must have made a lot of money.

But he has those lackeys to share it with.

Forget it, I’ll rely on myself for my own matters.

"After condensing the Double Pill, the spiritual power in my body is much more robust than that of an ordinary early Golden Core Realm. I can start practicing the second move of the ’Thunder Sword Skills’!"

With a plan in mind, Zhou Qing took out a jade slip and began to ponder...

Two nights later, Yan Xiaohu came over with a wine jar, looking extremely unhappy, to drink with Zhou Qing.

"That Lu Junior Sister has something against me!" Yan Xiaohu downed a mouthful of wine, looking quite displeased.

Zhou Qing asked with a puzzled smile, "What happened this time?"

Yan Xiaohu said, "From the very beginning, I felt something was off. As soon as I got near the Ninth Princess, Lu would look very guarded, as if she was afraid I’d say more than a few words to Miss Mu Qian. Especially in the past few days, she’s been even worse, always causing trouble."

"Whenever I finally get a chance to be alone with Mu Qian, Lu appears out of nowhere, sometimes even outright refusing on her behalf. What do you think she’s up to?"

Yan Xiaohu was visibly upset.

Zhou Qing was stunned.

Then he poured Yan Xiaohu another drink, saying, "To be honest, the Xuanyuan Clan, as the rulers of the Holy Martial Dynasty, are deeply rooted and intricate. Many like us from the Taiqing Sect are keeping an eye on them..."

"I know, I know. Actually, from the Ninth Princess’s attitude in the past two days, I’ve realized that I’m just trying to warm a cold heart. Moreover, I’m not the only one being attentive; others from different peaks are thinking the same."

"After today, I won’t bother with her anymore. I’m not that bad looking, you see. Check out this round face and these single eyelids. Plenty of people send me flirtatious looks."

Yan Xiaohu took out a mirror and scrutinized himself carefully.

Zhou Qing smiled slightly, feeling relieved as well.

That’s better!

Suddenly, Yan Xiaohu leaned in, looked around, and whispered to Zhou Qing, "Hey Fourth Brother, do you think Lu Junior Sister might be...?"

"Be what?" Zhou Qing didn’t get it at first.

Yan Xiaohu said mysteriously, "You know, that. Hear me out. Ever since joining the Taiqing Sect, she’s had five senior brothers above her. And let’s not talk about the rest; Li Daoxuan and He Han aren’t bad looking, right? Though they can’t compare to us, they’re still decent."

"But she doesn’t pay them any mind and instead acts ambiguously with you, causing others to misunderstand. It’s actually a facade, making people think her orientation is normal."

"Then, when the timing is right, she pairs you up with Immortal Xuan You. It’s her way of making up to you after using you. But now, faced with someone like the Ninth Princess..."

Zhou Qing quickly interrupted, "Third Brother, you’re drunk. Though that girl sometimes leaves people speechless, she’s definitely not what you think. It’s better not to say things like this again."

Yan Xiaohu reluctantly gave up after hearing this.

Whatever, it feels good to be myself again.

In these past days of being humble, he almost couldn’t recognize himself.

"We need some snacks for the wine. How about roasting your chicken?"

"Get lost!"

......

After drinking three rounds, Zhou Qing started asking Yan Xiaohu about ways to make money.

Talking about money instantly energized Yan Xiaohu.

"Guess how much I’ve made these days?" Yan Xiaohu asked proudly.

Zhou Qing shook his head, but seeing the Third Brother’s expression, he knew it was a lot.

"After deducting costs and manpower, net profit is one thousand low-grade Spirit Stones, which is equivalent to ten mid-grade Spirit Stones!"

Zhou Qing was genuinely happy for the Third Brother, especially since this was achieved in just a few days.

"That’s almost as much as I make in two trips to the Pocket World. You’re really impressive, Senior Brother!" Zhou Qing praised.

Yan Xiaohu said, "Of course! Your senior brother is... wait, what did you just say?"
