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

As soon as she left, Li Qingshan, who was "sleeping", opened his eyes.

He looked at the treasures he had specially selected throughout the room with some confusion, quite puzzled.

Didn't the Spirit Lord say that his precious snake was greedy and vengeful? How come it didn't take away any of the treasures that were specially prepared for it?

Could it be that there wasn't anyone you liked?

He brought out all the most valuable treasures in the entire Qingxiao Sect, and she still picked and chose.

snort!

Difficult to please.

And petty.

All I did was yell at her a few times during the day, and she came looking for revenge that very night.

She didn't even consider that if she wholeheartedly protected her during the day, the entire Qingxiao Sect would be drowned in spittle.

Ungrateful as he was, he even smeared snake venom on his jade pendant.

With her small frame, she dared to poison herself, a Nascent Soul cultivator; she truly didn't know her place.

If this poison could actually harm him, then he would have wasted his time as sect leader.

So this isn't recruiting a disciple for the Qingxiao Sect, it's clearly recruiting a little tyrant.

Ugh!

Being the sect leader must have been incredibly difficult for him.

......

Early in the morning, the news that Sect Leader Li Qingshan was swollen spread throughout the entire sect.

Therefore, everyone was secretly speculating: who was this reckless fool who dared to plot against the leader of a sect?

But the sect leader is at least a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Apart from Shen Ji, the peak master of Xiaoyao Peak, who in the entire Qingxiao Sect can be his opponent?

But Shen Ji would probably disdain doing such a childish thing.

But they really couldn't imagine who else in the Qingxiao Sect could ambush a Nascent Soul stage expert.

Meanwhile, the culprit everyone was discussing was proudly holding his head high, enjoying the praise from his two senior brothers with a clear conscience.

"Junior Sister, you're amazing! You even managed to subdue the Black Tiger."

"Yes, Junior Sister, you have no idea how dumbfounded I was when I saw you come out with Xuanhu. That's the sect's guardian spirit beast."

"But junior sister, I heard the sect leader is swollen. Could this be your doing too?"

Qin Yuan leaned closer, his smile somewhat irritating.

Compared to Qin Yuan, Yuan Bao was somewhat worried.

"Junior sister, you handled this matter rather poorly. He is, after all, the sect leader. If you were to tease him like this and it were discovered, what if he held a grudge against you?"

Holding a grudge?

She, Bai Xiaobai, is not afraid of being resented.

And right now, the most important thing isn't to discuss whether she'll be resented, but to "dispose of the stolen goods" as soon as possible.

She hadn't expected her two senior brothers to be so ruthless, managing to snatch away quite a few spiritual herbs and plants that were hundreds of years old.

But it's best to deal with these things as soon as possible; leaving them on Xiaoyao Peak isn't very safe.

She gently tapped the table with her tail, expressing her thoughts.

"Senior brother, let's find a way to exchange these spiritual herbs and plants for spirit stones and pills as soon as possible. As for the profit sharing, how about we split it three-thirds and four-quarters?"

Looking at the large characters above Bai Xiaobai's head, Qin Yuan nodded in agreement.

"Junior Sister, you can have your share of Third Senior Brother's. Next time there's something like this, just remember to bring your senior brother along."

Bai Xiaobai didn't expect that her third senior brother, who seemed unreliable, was actually quite reliable.

Then, both the human and the snake turned their attention to Yuanbao, whose face was full of confusion.

Yuanbao looked troubled, and after much hesitation, he finally revealed his thoughts.

"Junior Sister, Third Senior Brother, let's not do things like this anymore; it's too dangerous. And regarding these few spiritual herbs, I think..."

He hesitated, clearly conflicted.

"My fourth senior sister is trying to break through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, but she's still short on the necessary pills. And my eldest senior brother has been wanting to break through to the Nascent Soul realm for a long time, but the spirit stones and pills provided by the sect are far from enough. So I'm thinking, this time... how about..."

Yuanbao couldn't quite bring himself to say the last few words.

But their eyes said it all.

Bai Xiaobai never expected that Senior Brother Yuanbao would be so considerate of others and so mindful of the bigger picture.

Although she really wanted to make her "first pot of gold" at Qingxiao Sect, Senior Brother Yuanbao's difficult situation made it hard for her to refuse.

Anyway, she couldn't leave Qingxiao Sect anytime soon, and she had a good first impression of her senior brothers and sisters.

Moreover, in order to gain a foothold and protection in the Qingxiao Sect, it is naturally better to have stronger senior brothers and sisters.

Besides, she had only just arrived at Xiaoyao Peak and didn't even have her own place to stay. She also couldn't use storage rings or storage bags, so even if she exchanged these spiritual herbs and medicines for spirit stones, she wouldn't have anything to store them in.

Why not just do a favor? There's plenty of time in the future.

So she didn't hesitate for long and quickly gave an answer.

"In that case, let's leave these spiritual herbs and remedies to the senior brothers and sisters who need them."

Seeing the big characters above Bai Xiaobai's head, Yuanbao was so moved that he almost wanted to give her a big hug.

In the end, he only gently patted her little head.

"Junior Sister, you are truly a lucky star for our Xiaoyao Peak. Don't worry, your senior brother will work hard to complete tasks and earn spirit stones. Once I've earned them, I'll give them all to you."

Yuanbao had barely finished speaking when a gentle, refined voice came from outside the door.

"So our Yuanbao is this generous! I misunderstood you before, thinking you were just a simple money-grubber."

The two people and the snake were dumbfounded.

They never expected that Shen Ji would arrive so quietly and overhear their conversation so accurately.

But he's usually asleep at this time, so why is he awake today?

Shen Ji's smile was as gentle as a spring breeze, and Bai Xiaobai was once again captivated by his gentle appearance.

Just as she was marveling at how she had become the disciple of the handsome man, she suddenly remembered that her senior brothers and sisters had said that he had broken the spiritual root of a newly initiated female disciple simply because he was disturbed while sleeping, and she felt a chill run down her spine.

If he found out that it was I, a newcomer, who had misled my two senior brothers into stealing the sect leader's spiritual herbs and remedies, and was the culprit who caused the sect leader to become swollen, would he beat me into pieces?

She shrank back, instinctively wanting to sneak away.

Unexpectedly, he made direct eye contact with Shen Ji.

Feeling guilty, feeling completely and utterly exposed.

This caused her to instinctively bend over and spring up, then wrap herself precisely around Yuanbao's neck.

This is the safest place she can find right now.

When she's nervous, she usually puts something on her plate.

With his junior sister choking him like that, Yuanbao didn't dare to pull her off forcefully.

"Little...little junior sister, loosen...loosen it a little..."

Hearing Yuanbao's noticeably weak and hoarse voice, Bai Xiaobai finally relaxed a little.

But he kept his snake head down, too guilty to look Shen Ji in the eye.
