Stop pretending, the seemingly useless junior sister is the real boss.

Shen Ji stared at the small figure that had already walked away, and stood there in a daze for a long time.

"sleep tight?"

He muttered to himself, repeating the sentence over and over again.

He didn't fully come to his senses until that small figure was completely swallowed up by the crowd.

He didn't know why his little snake would say such a thing to him at this time, but because of those words, a place in his heart that had been frozen for countless years suddenly cracked open without warning.

Warm light shone through the crack, so warm that it made one's heart tremble slightly.

He slowly lowered his head, looking at the faint black crescent mark on his palm.

He couldn't remember the last time someone told him to "get a good night's sleep."

Perhaps it never has.

Throughout his life, he has heard far too many compliments, far too much awe, far too many schemes and tests.

Some people respected him, some feared him, some hated him, some wanted to replace him, and some wanted to kill him.

But no one ever said to him in such a casual tone, "Have a good night's sleep."

It seems he's just an ordinary person; he gets tired, sleepy, and needs a good night's sleep.

"The little guy, as always, knows how to win people over."

He chuckled softly and left the training ground in a good mood.

After exchanging greetings with his master, Bai Xiaobai led Ye Qinghe to the stalls of his senior brothers and sisters.

"Hey, Spirit-Gathering Fruit Tea and Anti-Aging Face Mask, these are rare items unique to our Spirit Realm."

Ye Qinghe took the things Bai Xiaobai handed her with a look of surprise and asked incredulously, "So you made all of this? Xiaobai, you're amazing!"

Upon being praised by Ye Qinghe, Bai Xiaobai's small face was filled with great pride.

In order to give the Spirit-Nourishing Fruit Tea and the Anti-Aging Mask a plausible origin, she could only tell everyone that these products came from the spirit world.

But she was genuinely proud of herself.

After all, Ningling Fruit Tea and Anti-Aging Mask have received unanimous praise from everyone so far.

As they walked along, the stalls with the best business were those of their own senior brothers and sisters.

Ye Qinghe couldn't wait to take a sip of the Spirit-Gathering Fruit Tea, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes widening in disbelief.

"Little Bai, this Spirit Gathering Fruit Tea is so delicious! You Spirit Realm have such wonderful things? This Spirit Gathering Fruit Tea not only has a refreshing fruity aroma, but also a faint spiritual energy. How do you make something so delicious? This is really too tempting for us disciples who haven't yet achieved the Great Cultivation."

Bai Xiaobai's lips curled up high, her little chin raised smugly, and she stretched out a delicate white index finger and slowly waved it from side to side in front of Ye Qinghe.

"It's not just for disciples who haven't yet achieved the Abstinence from Grains. My Spirit-Gathering Fruit Tea will definitely become popular throughout the entire cultivation world in the future. Even for powerful cultivators who have already achieved the Abstinence from Grains, this Spirit-Gathering Fruit Tea will be beneficial and harmless to them."

Ye Qinghe's eyes were sparkling with excitement. At this moment, she felt even more that her and Qin Wanrou's act of showing goodwill to Bai Xiaobai was the best choice they had ever made.

The success of Ningling Fruit Tea and Anti-aging Mask filled Bai Xiaobai with confidence in her plan to become a wealthy young woman in the cultivation world.

She was already thinking about how to combine another kind of food that was loved by most people on Earth with the cultivation world, so as to create a dish suitable for the cultivation world.

Just as Bai Xiaobai was envisioning a bright future for his business empire, a cold, unfamiliar voice came from behind him.

"How come I didn't know such a thing existed in the Spirit Realm? A princess of the Spirit Realm, instead of focusing on cultivation, she does nothing but attract attention. It's truly unfortunate that the Spirit Realm has such a useless princess."

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaobai's good mood vanished instantly.

She just wanted to see who was the fool who had to come looking for trouble at this particular time.

When she turned around with a frown and saw the person surrounded by a group of disciples, she quickly realized who this clueless person was.

Ye Qinghe recognized the person and knew something was wrong.

He said in a low voice with some concern, "This person is Mu Yu from the Liuyue Sect, and he's a favorite to win this year's sect competition. He's the personal disciple of the Liuyue Sect's vice sect master, and his cultivation talent is outstanding. Although he's only at the early Foundation Establishment stage, he has defeated Golden Core cultivators before. This person is not to be trifled with, Xiaobai. We should avoid him if possible and not confront him directly."

After Ye Qinghe finished speaking, she seemed to remember something, and her worry deepened.

"I forgot, he and Gu Lingxi seem to be childhood sweethearts. He's probably here for Gu Lingxi."

After hearing what Ye Qinghe said, Bai Xiaobai finally remembered his first mortal enemy when he came to Xiaoyao Peak - Gu Lingxi.

I never expected that Mu Yu of the Liuyue Sect and Gu Lingxi were childhood sweethearts.

When Gu Lingxi attacked him, Li Qingshan had his master back him up, and he promised that Gu Lingxi would not appear in front of him for ten years.

So, Mu Yu, as Gu Lingxi's childhood friend, is here to cause trouble for her on behalf of his childhood sweetheart.

However, before causing trouble for her, one should first consider whether one's senior brothers and sisters agree.

Besides, it's currently the sect's minor competition. Even if Mu Yu is the personal disciple of the Flowing Moon Sect's vice sect master, he probably wouldn't dare to fight me here.

With his recent victory over Lu Feng of the Liuyue Sect, the Liuyue Sect must be furious. At this time, Mu Yu's visit is likely just a way to utter some harsh words.

But you can make threats, as if anyone can't.

Although Bai Xiaobai's strength is average, the sect she is backed by is extraordinary.

So who's afraid of whom?

Seeing that Mu Yu had brought people to cause trouble for Bai Xiaobai, a crowd quickly gathered around.

When Mu Yu thought of Gu Lingxi crying her heart out last night, recounting how she was bullied by Bai Xiaobai and Xiaoyao Peak, her whole demeanor turned noticeably colder.

"What, I guessed right. This Spirit-Gathering Fruit Tea and this Youth-Preserving Mask are nothing but tricks to attract attention. I spent some time in the Spirit Realm before, and I've never seen anything like them. Everyone, don't be fooled by this piece of trash."

Although Ye Qinghe said she didn't want to clash with Mu Yu, having personally tasted the Spirit Gathering Fruit Tea, she naturally knew that it wasn't some kind of attention-seeking gimmick.

And how could she sit idly by while her friend was being bullied?

So she stepped forward and shielded Bai Xiaobai behind her.

"So what if you've been to the Spirit Realm? Our Little Bai is a princess of the Spirit Realm. You may not have seen the things she has. Besides, what makes you think Little Bai is just trying to attract attention? Did your Liuyue Sect disciples lose and then come to cause trouble for Little Bai? And this Spirit Condensing Fruit Tea, you can try it before you comment."

After she finished speaking, she took Bai Xiaobai's hand.

"Come on, Xiaobai, let's not stoop to the level of this kind of person."
