Chapter 305 Jiang Qingge suspects Ling Yue and Lu Ye... The terrifying nature of the Four Divine Ancient Seals (Please continue reading)
"Aunt Zhao, when it comes to these nourishing foods, do the men or the women usually eat more of them?" After thinking for a moment, Jiang Qingge asked.

Aunt Zhao chuckled and said, "Of course it's for men, hehe. If you have time, Miss, you might as well bring some back for your husband later. My husband loves my cooking."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingge fell into deep thought.

Many days have passed, and now, thinking back to Lingyue's actions back then...

It does indeed have a slightly strange feel to it.

Although she said it was for herself, she shouldn't usually eat such nourishing foods. Why did she suddenly have this idea that day?
Seeing the objects reminded Jiang Qingge of the past, and the more she thought about it, the more something seemed off.

She had previously speculated that her younger sister might have a lover, but Lingyue righteously denied it.

And in the past two years, Lingyue has indeed not gotten very close to any other man...

wrong!

It's not that I don't have a close friend or someone of the opposite sex...

She and her brother-in-law Lu Ye...aren't they on pretty good terms?!
In fact, at that time, their relationship should have been better than his.

If we're talking about close female friends, Lu Ye is definitely one of them.

However, thinking about this, Jiang Qingge stared at the ingredients being stir-fried in the pot, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Will there be any problems between them?

It doesn't seem like it. Brother-in-law and sister-in-law... they shouldn't have any problems, right?

Moreover, Jiang Qingge didn't think that Lingyue, with her personality, would fall for a man like Lu Ye.

"Perhaps I'm overthinking it. Lingyue and Lu Ye...it's impossible."

Rejecting the strange thought that suddenly popped into her mind, Jiang Qingge began to concentrate on watching Aunt Zhao cook.

It wasn't a sudden whim; she had been thinking about it for a while.

Jiang Qingge also knows that she doesn't have much time to learn cooking skills right now.

However, she felt that if she tried hard to learn one or two things, she still had a chance.

She learned about this from a book, which said that the way to a person's heart is through their stomach...

"Whether it works or not, let's give it a try first..."

Meanwhile, inside the city lord's mansion.

Wang Xinglu frowned slightly, realizing that things... seemed to be getting more complicated!

Meng Lei had been imprisoned by him for so many years and was seriously injured. Moreover, Meng Lei had no family or any powerful old friends.

Wang Xinglu guessed that he most likely escaped on his own.

However, due to years of physical suffering, he probably doesn't have the ability to escape very far at once.

The two bodyguards he sent out to search for traces within a radius of hundreds of miles were both experts at the ninth level of the Acquired Realm.

But after some time, not a single message came back, and the two guards... had also disappeared.

They waited until nightfall, but the guards were still nowhere to be seen.

Now, Wang Xinglu guessed that something must have happened!
Within a radius of several hundred miles, and with no particularly dangerous places nearby, those two guards must have finished searching long ago, having left quite early.

"Could it be that they've found Meng Lei's trail and are chasing after him?" Wang Xinglu pondered.

Although Meng Lei was previously at the first level of the Innate Realm, over the years his strength had long since dropped to an extremely weak state.

Wang Xinglu tapped his fingers on the table. There were no lights on in the room, only the moonlight from outside the window flickering in and out.

Just like Wang Xingluo's mood at this moment, sometimes sinking and sometimes rising.

Meanwhile, the Holy Maiden Xihe waved her hand and bought a small courtyard in Yunye City, intending it to be her future resting place.

Then, they planned to go to the trading market to buy a maid to take care of daily cleaning and so on.

These expenses are just a drop in the ocean for her.

Soon, they arrived at the trading market, where all sorts of servants had signed indentures. As long as they paid enough silver, they could take the person and their indenture with them.

In one corner, a maid dressed in green was squatting there, sighing.

She was Green Lotus, who used to go and play with Qingyu from time to time.

However, because the master planned to lay off some maids and servants, Green Lotus was also among those "laid off" and was sent to the trading market.

"No wonder Qingyu is so happy every day. With such a son-in-law, she doesn't have to worry about being sent away by the master."

At this moment, when she thought about Qingyu's treatment and her own situation, Lühe felt extremely envious.

Qingyu is a lovely and well-behaved girl; who knows... she might even get to eat her son-in-law's food someday!

That girl had been keeping this in mind all along; Green Lotus could tell that perfectly well.

Just as Green Lotus was lost in thought, a woman in a white dress and veiled face walked up to her not far away.

"You're the one." The woman in the white dress and veiled face spoke softly, as if she possessed an ethereal quality.

"Huh?" Green Lotus was taken aback at first, then saw the person in charge of the trading market rush over and quickly complete the formalities.

A moment later, as Green Lotus walked out of the trading market, she realized that she had been bought.

He immediately whispered, "You...you are my new master?"

Upon hearing this, Saintess Xihe turned her head and said in a clear voice, "You don't need to be nervous. Just follow me... just follow me. All you need to do is tidy up the courtyard. As for food and clothing, I have already abstained from grains, so you don't need to take care of it."

Green Lotus astutely grasped two key words...

Fasting!

She had heard that cultivators who could abstain from grains had at least reached the Innate Realm and were able to absorb and circulate source energy on their own!
Doesn't this mean that the person who bought her was a young-looking female cultivator at the Innate Realm?!
"Yes! My name is Lühe. May I ask how you address me?"

Saintess Xihe said calmly, "Nangong Xihe."

"Greetings, Miss Xihe." Feeling that this was a very approachable and skilled person, Lühe breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Soon, following Saintess Xihe, they arrived at an exquisite courtyard, and another thought surfaced in Green Lotus's mind.

"Not only is she a master, but she's also a rich woman!"

I was just envying Qingyu, but now I've found a good job too!
Immediately, Lühe followed into the courtyard and quickly got into work mode.

On the other side, in the mountains and forests, above Lu Ye's head, four illusory figures condensed in the air.

Upon closer inspection, each illusory figure corresponds to one of the four ancient mythical beasts from mythology!

Among the four divine beast phantoms, the Vermilion Bird Seal is the most realistic and also the seal that Lu Ye controls the most.

"Although my proficiency is not comparable to the Yin-Yang Finger of Annihilation, if I were to condense the Vermilion Bird Seal and unleash a full-force attack... it should be slightly stronger than the Yin-Yang Finger of Annihilation."

After a moment's thought, Lu Ye finally abandoned the idea of ​​testing the Vermilion Bird Seal here.

It's incredibly powerful.

Just then, the communication jade tablet made a sound. Lu Ye dispersed the Four Divine Seals, which had absorbed a large amount of Grandmaster Origin Qi, and took it out to take a look.

My dear husband, when will you be back? I've prepared some good things for you...
