Clack, clack, clack…
The carriage drove into the city and headed toward Pear Blossom Alley.
As Qiao Zhongxing drove the carriage, he was still dazed and could not comprehend the earlier events.
In truth, even Qiao Mu herself did not understand what had happened, let alone her family.
Li Xiang from Daybreak Sect died in an incredibly inexplicable and suspicious way. Qiao Mu could not make heads or tails of it no matter how she pondered over it.
Qiao Zhongbang coughed twice and could not resist asking, “Qiaoqiao, that young man earlier…?”
The youth’s figure had disappeared as soon as they entered the city, but everyone bore witness to his strength.
Qiao Zhongbang was knowledgeable about Shang Kun’s strength. When he left Daybreak Sect, Shang Kun was a level four mystic cultivator.
After that, Shang Kun advanced two levels in 15 years. To the majority of people, this was a normal speed for advancement.
Although to extremely talented people, this was absolutely a turtle’s speed.
However, all the disciples that Daybreak Sect accepted in recent years seemed to have very mediocre talent. It could be said that Qiao Zhongbang from back then could be considered fairly outstanding amongst the younger generation. Unfortunately, he was expelled from the sect in less than two years.
Qiao Mu looked away from her father and nonchalantly responded, “He will follow us.”
“That youth’s cultivation is extremely advanced and extraordinary! Why did he follow us the whole way?” Qiao Zhongbang asked with obvious incomprehension.
Qiao Mu answered without skipping a beat, “He paid his dues!”
Qiao Zhongbang was confused. Was he slow or stupid? How come he felt like he was speaking on a completely different wavelength when he conversed with his eldest daughter…
On the side, Qiao Hu quickly interjected and supplemented, “That big brother and Shaoyao both handed over a large amount of board and lodging fee and willingly followed Elder Younger Sis to be her subordinates! Eldest Uncle, Elder Younger Sis is too awesome!”
As Qiao Hu said this, he wore an expression of worship.
“Wh-what do you mean?” Qiao Zhongbang was so shocked that his chin nearly dropped to the ground. “What if they didn’t pay their board and lodging fee???”
“Then Elder Younger Sis certainly wouldn’t take them in!” Qiao Hu looked at his eldest uncle like he was a fool. How could Eldest Uncle not understand such a simple concept! He was dumber than a child, so comical!
Qiao Zhongbang’s lips twitched. His young nephew’s gaze made him really want to smack his head!
A great, esteemed mystic cultivator whose ability exceeded Shang Kun actually had to pay a fee to follow his daughter! It would make other people lose their minds!
Currently, the great, esteemed mystic cultivator, Ao Ye, mentioned by Qiao Zhongbang was hiding behind some eave and surreptitiously pulled out a pure white jade talisman about the width of his palm from his pocket.
If Qiao Mu was present, she would be able to tell that this jade talisman was created by carving onto a jade stone using absolutely authentic talisman methods.
This was a messenger jade talisman, a rare sight even in the royal capital, Guanlan City.
Ao Ye dug out a specially made jade pen and wrote on the jade talisman, “Your Highness the Crown Prince, not good! A youth from the Daybreak Sect appeared and looks like he wants to poach your prey!”
Then, he wrote a bunch of things in a rambling manner…
Something about some youth from Daybreak Sect who insisted on giving a kiss to dear Qiaoqiao but dear Qiaoqiao adamantly refused, and he even purposefully described dear Qiaoqiao’s stoic face!
If Qiao Mu saw the nonsense that Ao Ye was writing, she would certainly be enraged and kick him into the horizon.
After Ao Ye teemingly wrote a thousand words, he stopped writing with lament. He looked up at the horizon and sighed with a tinge of grief. “Your Highness, this subordinate can only help you to this extent! Where else would you find such a perfunctorily responsible subordinate who reports in such details!”
