My junior sister sees everyone as a heretical cultivator.

Chapter 256? Shall we go...to my house? (Seeking monthly votes! Seeking rewards! Seeking book recommendations!)
At this moment, Li Chunfeng and Wang Xiedi had already descended the mountain where Guixi Sect was located. The road ahead was a winding dirt road that stretched into the distant plains.

While performing the "Threefold Wind Control" technique, Li Chunfeng practiced drawing his sword and sheathing it. Suddenly, he stopped and turned to look at Wang Xiedi beside him.

"By the way, Xiedi, did you bring any food? There aren't any inns along the way."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiedi stopped as well. He reached into his storage bag, rummaged around for a moment, and then paused, saying, "Yes."

He took out a small porcelain bottle from his storage bag, poured it into his palm, and found only three dusty pills: "There's only a little bit of Bigu Pill left."

Wang Xiedi was a little embarrassed: "This is what was left over from when we were at Qingxu Temple. After we came to Guixi Sect, we've been eating at the food pavilion, so we haven't used this again and forgot to replenish it."

Since joining the Guixi Sect, he has been able to eat hot meals in the food pavilion every day. These ordinary delicacies do not accumulate turbid qi, which is far better than fasting pills. Moreover, he has never had the habit of putting ordinary food into his storage bag.

Li Chunfeng frowned as he looked at the three pills: "This... seems... how about... we go back and get some from the food court?"

The two turned their heads at the same time and looked at the towering Ochiai Peak behind them.

Going back... means climbing this mountain path again.

The thought of having to make another trip made them both fall silent. It was too much trouble; they decided to give up.

"How about..." Wang Xiedi hesitated before speaking, "we see what we can eat in these mountains, and use what we have to get some wild game?"

Upon hearing this, Li Chunfeng nodded: "Sure! It's a good thing to cook some wild game! Consider it practice for us! Anyway, it's still early, let's continue on our way and search as we go."

The two reached a consensus and continued heading towards Anhe City.

……

Amidst the praise, Lin Qingfeng withdrew his hand contentedly and turned to leave.

Su Ling'er took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down from the absurd "feeding" incident.

And so, the two continued walking forward.

They had just crossed an intersection when a middle-aged woman carrying a vegetable basket walked towards them. The woman was walking briskly and was about to pass them when she suddenly stopped and looked at Su Ling'er with some hesitation.

Su Ling'er recognized her as Zhang Ma, the purchasing agent in her household.

The woman looked Su Ling'er up and down: "She looks... somewhat familiar... but this outfit..." She finally tentatively asked, "Excuse me... are you... Miss Ling'er?"

Su Ling'er's heart tightened, and she quickly replied, "Aunt Zhang, it's been a long time."

"Oh my! It really is you, Miss Ling'er!" Zhang Ma's confusion instantly turned into surprise. "You're finally back! Master and Madam have missed you so much!"

She wanted to say something more, but when her gaze fell on Su Ling'er's black outfit and the long sword at her waist, she swallowed her words: "Miss, aren't you going to..."

Afraid that she would utter the words "Qingxu Temple," Su Ling'er quickly interrupted, "That's right! I went to Guixi Sect! I've already joined the sect and now that I've mastered my skills, I've returned home to visit! It's a reclusive and prestigious sect! The sect is full of experts, and their techniques are unfathomable!"

"Oh, oh, oh!" Zhang Ma was stunned for a moment, then nodded repeatedly. "That's wonderful! That's wonderful! Miss, you've really reached a new level! I still have to go and buy supplies for the manor."

"Oh, by the way, Miss, speaking of which, the young lady of the An family committed suicide a few days ago. It's such a pity. If you have time, you can go and see her funeral." "I'll be going now, Miss. You should go home and visit your family too! Master and the others miss you!" After saying that, Zhang Ma hurriedly left.

Su Ling'er's mind was still replaying Zhang Ma's last words.

Miss An... An Qinyao... committed suicide? That girl who always sat by the window in the attic, chin in hand, watching the clouds... how could she...?

No matter how beautifully the flowers bloom on the branches in spring, they will fall after a gust of wind and rain.

Just as she was lost in thought, Lin Qingfeng's voice rang in her ears: "Junior Sister, is this your hometown?"

Su Ling'er: !!!

Her heart skipped a beat. Oh no! She'd been discovered!
She forced herself to suppress her panic, turned around, and dared not look directly at Lin Qingfeng. Instead, she turned her gaze to the drifting clouds in the sky, trying to deceive him.

"Yes...yes, senior brother."

"Didn't I... tell you before? Oh dear, maybe I have a bad memory and forgot, hehe!"

Don't ask any more questions! Just pretend I came back on the way, and let's get this over with quickly! With Senior Brother's easygoing personality, he shouldn't dwell on such a small matter, right?

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingfeng nodded with a look of sudden realization.

Su Ling'er was overjoyed. That's great! It seems he really didn't...

"Oh—! No wonder!" Lin Qingfeng clapped his hands and said, "No wonder your junior sister insisted on sticking to me! It turns out she heard I was coming to Anhe City and wanted to go home on the way!"

He looked at Su Ling'er: "No, why don't you just say it directly?! Why make it so complicated?! If you miss home, just say you miss home. I'm not an unreasonable person...tsk tsk tsk."

"Also, you're right in your own city, how could you fall for a begging scam? It seems that being scammed really has nothing to do with where you are."

"Ah..." Being tricked in her own hometown made Su Ling'er feel a little embarrassed, so she could only continue to play dumb and act somewhat confused: "Huh? I... I think I said that? Or did I remember wrong?"

"It's alright," Lin Qingfeng waved his hand magnanimously. "Whether I said it or not isn't important. Sometimes I even forget what I said or not. Anyway, we're here now."

He changed the subject abruptly, waving his hand with great interest: "Come on, lead the way, let's go to your house and take a look."

"Huh? Going...going to my house?!"

Su Ling'er's eyes widened involuntarily. Senior Brother's status... he's going to my small merchant's mansion?

Would Father think the eldest brother was impolite? Would Mother serve him strange dishes? And what about those clueless servants in the house…?

This is the senior disciple of the Demonic Sect! If someone were to offend him, it wouldn't just be a matter of one person dying!
Although my opinion of my senior brother has changed somewhat recently, but... what if...?

Lin Qingfeng looked at Su Ling'er, who was standing there in a daze, and waved his hand in front of her eyes.

"No, why are you stuck again! I'm just showing you the way, what are you spacing out for? Do you think I'm going to eat your family?"
