Chapter 68: Comparing Injuries

While Ye Anping was thinking about these things, the two little helpers reapplied his medicine and wrapped the bandages again.

"Mr. Ye, we are leaving now. If you need something, just ring the bell next to you, and we'll know."

"Oh..." Ye Anping came to his senses and bowed his head politely. "Thanks a lot, you guys."

"You're welcome~"

Judging by the blossoming smiles of the two boys, it seemed that he hadn't inadvertently offended them. Ye Anping breathed a sigh of relief.

As they pushed the trolley out of the room, the two girls waiting outside walked in.

Xiao Yunluo exchanged a glance with Pei Lianxue. She came forward, handed him the pastries, and said, "Although this is not the first time we've met, this is a small gift as a token of respect, so please accept it, Young Master Ye. Previously at the physiotherapy center, I misunderstood you, I'm sorry about that..."

"Miss Xiao, it's nothing serious. Physiotherapy is a new thing. It's not easy to accept it at first."

"Well..."

After Xiao Yunluo finished greeting, she looked at Pei Lianxue and quickly stepped aside.

And probably because of Xiao Yunluo's presence, Pei Lianxue behaved somewhat unnaturally as well. Normally, she would have immediately sat down next to her brother and leaned against his shoulder.

"Brother, I just came over to see you. How is your injury?"

"In fact, there were just some minor injuries, but when Dr. Zhou consulted me, Sister Bai exaggerated it, and then it became like this." Ye Anping shrugged helplessly. "Don't worry, these wounds are not as bad as your beatings were."

Hearing this, Xiao Yunluo was stunned for a moment and looked at Ye Anping's bandaged body and then at the large and small medicine jars on the table.

Basically, his whole body was covered in bandages, and there were so many medicines next to him.

And this was not as bad as Pei Lianxue's beating?

Then, how bad were those beatings?!

Speechless, she looked at Pei Lianxue, curious about her reaction.

Only to see Pei Lianxue breathing a sigh of relief, laughing, and saying, "...That's good."

Xiao Yunluo: ...

Ye Anping looked at Xiao Yunluo who was staring at him, then at Pei Lianxue. He pondered for a while and said, "Oh, right, in a few days, take some time to come to my shop. I'll take you for a stroll to the *Heavenly Vault Spring Return Pavilion*."

"*Heavenly Vault Spring Return Pavilion*?" This was the first time Pei Lianxue heard that name. "What is that place?"

All this time, Xiao Yunluo was like she couldn't wait for her "Join Chat" button to finally light up, to press it, and help Ye Anping explain. "Lianxue, that's the best jewelry store in the **Western Region**. I wanted to take you there, but it's a little far away."

"It's half a day's journey on the flying sword." Ye Anping said.

"That's still quite far." Xiao Yunluo said with a smile.

Taken aback, Pei Lianxue asked, "The best jewelry store, shouldn't it be very expensive? No need, brother, I don't like wearing jewelry anyway. It gets in the way when I'm training with the sword."

"Girl, how can you not need jewelry?" Xiao Yunluo came closer to Pei Lianxue and said, "Jewelry for women is like cups of wine for men. You have to have a few. Men attending banquets and other events would have drinking contests, while women would exchange jewelry with each other and wear them for fun. Besides, Lianxue, you are so beautiful... if you wore a necklace or a bracelet, it would be the icing on the cake..."

"Yes, Miss Xiao is right."

"Young Master Ye, just call me Sister Xiao."

Ye Anping and Xiao Yunluo glanced at each other, and Pei Lianxue, noticing this, immediately puffed up her cheeks, frowned, and coughed as a reminder.

"Ahem..."

"Ah..."

Xiao Yunluo was stunned and quickly looked away, sighing in her heart again. Lianxue is really protective, she actually got angry after just one glance in a normal chat.

Pei Lianxue paused, then frowned and said seriously, "But I already owe you so much, and I can't afford to pay it back. If you buy me jewelry now, don't you want me to give back the spirit stones I owe you in the future?"

"You still think of this?"

"Of course!"

Ye Anping said jokingly, "Then, you can pay it back bit by bit in the future. At worst, it will take two to three hundred years. I will stay with you for two to three hundred years and be your creditor."

"..."

Xiao Yunluo listened to the chat between the siblings and thought to herself: I suppose only people who have been close for more than ten years would have such cryptic communication.

"Well..." Pei Lianxue nodded, hesitated a little, then added, "However, it's better to buy something cheaper from the market. Wasn't there a jewelry store last time we went shopping? That one looked good."

"Look, we will go to the *Heavenly Vault Spring Return Pavilion*, and if you still can hold on and don't want anything from there, I won't buy you anything."

"Alright then..."

Her brother was even doing physiotherapy to make money, so she had to hold back to help him save money!

That's what Pei Lianxue vowed in her heart.

Ye Anping suddenly saw a little blood on Pei Lianxue's clothes and asked with a frown, "Sister, what have you done?"

"Huh?" Pei Lianxue looked at where he was pointing. "This... I just killed a chicken."

?

Ye Anping looked at the dishes they brought, but there was no chicken soup there.

"What did you kill the chicken for?"

After hesitating briefly, she said directly, "Brother, I saw a ghost last night!"

?

A question mark popped up on Ye Anping's head.

"A ghost... what kind of ghost?"

Xiao Yunluo nodded and said, "That's right, Lianxue said that when she practiced with her sword last night, she saw the ghost of a little girl who was dismembered in the bamboo forest near her compound."

???

The question mark on Ye Anping's head instantly turned into a sea of question marks.

Why didn't he know that there was such an incident in the ***Black Star*** Sect?

However, several similar missions flashed through his mind, but they could only be encountered in the demonic cultivator territories in the **Eastern Region**.

But the ***Black Star*** was an immortal cultivator sect! Why would there be ghosts in the land of immortals?

Or rather, what kind of ghost would want to run around inside the ***Black Star*** Sect?

After thinking for a while, Ye Anping asked, "Sister, what did that ghost look like?"

"She looked like an eight or nine-year-old girl. Her hair was longer than she was..."

"Hiss..." After only two words, Ye Anping suddenly inhaled, but seeing Xiao Yunluo present, he did not let Pei Lianxue continue and said, "I think I got the idea."

Sure enough, just the two features of being an eight or nine-year-old girl and her hair being longer than her height were enough for Ye Anping to deduce that she was that Old Loli woman.

That made him feel a little troubled.

Si Xuanji actually came into contact with his sister so quickly?

Did they just happen to bump into each other, or what?

He estimated that Si Xuanji would not appear until at least two or three months later.

In the game, Feng Yu Die met Si Xuanji for the first time only after she entered the *Foundation Building* stage. At that time, she had been in contact with Xiao Yunluo for more than half a year.

But now, it seemed that he, as the older brother, had greatly underestimated his sister's charm.

It only took her about a month to lure Si Xuanji out.

Ye Anping ah Ye Anping, look at this little sister you've raised!

Tsk tsk tsk...

Master Taixu, Master Taixu, look at that Feng Yu Die disciple you've raised!

Oh, yeah!~~~
