How awful! Lin Xueyi glanced at the woman with the wicked smile and unconsciously rolled her eyes at her.

"So you're planning to leave me here?"

He said this in a cool tone, which made Su Mengsha burst out laughing. "How could I bear to leave such a tender little girl like you in a place with so many grown men? What if a wolf snatches you away? I'd be devastated."

"I'd be a fool to believe you." Lin Xueyi gave the woman a playful glare. If she believed her, she'd look at what she was wearing and what she was wearing. Every time it was the last time, it always turned out to be "next time, for sure."

"That's the reading room inside the Library, where the disciples who have just joined the Luo City Sword Sect study. If you go around there, you can see the martial arts training ground inside the Library, where the disciples mostly practice martial arts."

"Huh? This is the Luo City Sword Sect?"

Hearing Su Mengsha say this, Lin Xueyi was a little confused. It sounded like this was the location of the Luo City Sword Sect, but thinking about it, it seemed unlikely.

As expected, Su Mengsha simply chuckled and shook her head. "This is not the Luo City Sword Sect. This is just a base set up by the Luo City Sword Sect specifically for ordinary people in Luo City who want to learn martial arts and study."

"Hmm, I see. They build a special place and select suitable people from among those who come here to become disciples. The others can also have traces of the Luo City Sword Sect and help the Luo City Sword Sect with odd jobs outside. This sect leader is really too shrewd."

"You little brat, keep your voice down. How can you say that here?"

With a carefully bent finger, he tapped Lin Xueyi's forehead and then gently stroked her delicate nose, causing Lin Xueyi to wrinkle her nose in dissatisfaction.

"I didn't say that... Okay, okay, I won't say anymore."

"Haha, actually, it's not a big deal. Not to mention you guys, even we disciples sometimes talk about our sect leader like that behind his back."

A clear voice came from behind the bamboo forest, and a man in a white robe turned out. Su Mengsha's tense eyes relaxed slightly after seeing the man.

"Who was it? Oh, it's you."

"Miss Su, it's been a long time. How come the Lord of the Fortress has finally allowed his precious daughter to come out and have some fun?"

Judging from their conversation, it was clear that the two knew each other. Lin Xueyi looked at Su Mengsha with some confusion, and then heard Su Mengsha speak.

"This man is Liu Changfeng, the Green Edge Sword, an inner disciple of the Luo City Sword Sect."

"Haha, what's this girl's name? Is she a relative of yours?"

When Liu Changfeng heard Su Mengsha introducing herself to Lin Xueyi beside her, he asked a question.

"My adopted sister, Lin Xueyi, doesn't have much martial arts skill. I'm just taking her out to broaden her horizons. When we get home, I'll have my father and brother teach her martial arts properly."

"Yes, Uncle Su and Brother Su are both highly skilled in cultivation. It is a rare opportunity to receive their guidance."

"Not at all, compared to the dignified leader of the Luo City Sword Sect, I am still somewhat inferior."

"Is this some kind of mutual flattery? But none of the people you mentioned seem to be here."

The two who had just been talking were taken aback by Lin Xueyi's sarcastic remarks, but then burst into laughter face to face.

"Haha, this girl is quite nice. My wife is at home, come over for a visit when you have time. Xuan'er really misses you, her good friend."

Main text: Chapter Thirteen: Little Genius Gu Duoduo

"Sister Xuan, so this is how you met Senior Brother Liu? I never thought that someone as weak as Senior Brother Liu could actually defeat those robbers outside."

Su Mengsha and Lin Xueyi, who had just arrived at Liu Changfeng's home as guests, had not yet entered the house when they heard a haughty voice coming from inside.

"Pfft, sorry, I couldn't help it." Hearing the voice from inside, Su Mengsha was the first to laugh out loud. She knew her friend very well, so this was the first time she had heard that the legendary Qingfeng Sword was being called a vegetable.

"I say, which junior sister of yours is this, how dare she say something like 'you're bad'? And she said it in front of Mu Xuan'er, your wife, how dare she not give you any face?"

Aside from a wry smile, Liu Changfeng really had no other expression. "This is the last disciple my master took in a couple of years ago. I have to say, this junior sister is a real genius. In just a few years, her cultivation level has directly reached the sixth level of the Acquired Realm, which is much stronger than us senior brothers."

Speaking of his junior sister, although her cultivation level had surpassed his, Liu Changfeng's tone was not jealous, but rather full of pride and doting affection for her.

"Judging from your expression, it seems your junior sister is quite popular with you guys. So, how does it feel to be overtaken by your junior sister?"

Su Mengsha had no intention of letting her friend off so easily, especially since this pig had taken advantage of her very good relationship with her.

"Senior brother, what are you saying outside? Sister Xuan and I can hear you clearly from inside the house. Since we have guests, please bring them in."

Liu Changfeng explained that it wasn't that he didn't want to answer, but that the people inside were already urging him to hurry, and led the two guests, one adult and one child, into the house.

"You silly girl, you always come running here for no reason. Don't you have homework to do with your master?"

"You too, you immediately started talking about Duoduo. She's just here to play for a while, it won't interfere with her studies."

No sooner had Liu Changfeng finished speaking than the junior sister named Duoduo had already taken over the conversation. Only then did Lin Xueyi take a closer look at the two women inside. Well, it seemed to be a mature woman and a young girl.

The little girl is probably Gu Duoduo, the genius junior sister that Qingfeng Sword mentioned before. Yes, she is really cute, and what attracts the most attention is her pair of waist-length pigtails, which are simply too adorable.

The other mature and sophisticated woman is probably Liu Changfeng's wife, and also Su Mengsha's good friend—Mu Xuan'er. Her appearance isn't as stunning as one might imagine, but overall she's still quite attractive. Of course, the most important thing is that she doesn't have Su Mengsha's dashing and spirited demeanor.

"Mengsha, it's been a long time. How have you been lately?"

Since she is already married, Mu Xuan'er doesn't know much about Su Mengsha's situation. However, since she is currently traveling the world with a young girl, it's estimated that Su Mengsha is not yet married.

However, what was originally a concerned inquiry turned into a bitter smile on Su Mengsha's face, causing Mu Xuan'er to frown.

"Mengsha, has something happened?"

"It's nothing, my family just arranged a marriage for me, and I don't like the other person at all." She shrugged helplessly, not revealing who the other person was for fear of worrying her friend.

Seemingly sensing Su Mengsha's hesitation, Mu Xuan'er didn't press the matter further. However, she couldn't help but worry. She decided to find someone to ask after Su Mengsha left to see what was going on.

Two long-lost friends were happily catching up on old times, reminiscing about funny stories from back then and talking about their recent lives, while on the other side, two little girls stood face to face.

"Your name is Lin Xueyi?"

Gu Duoduo stood in front of Lin Xueyi, looking at the fair-skinned little girl who was even smaller than herself. "Hmm, you're quite cute. How about it, do you want me to teach you kung fu?"

Her tone carried a slight arrogance, but Lin Xueyi could still hear the kindness hidden beneath the girl's words.

"No, let's forget about learning kung fu. I think it's fine without kung fu. Anyway, with Sister Mengsha by my side, there won't be any danger."

She was rejected. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. This little girl actually dared to reject her. Not to mention before, even after joining the sect, very few people had ever rejected her.

"No, you must learn kung fu from me. No, you don't have a foundation yet. You must first learn poetry and literature from me. Once you've learned enough, I'll teach you swordsmanship and mental techniques."

Although he was happy to see his junior sister so excited, Liu Changfeng had to pour some cold water on her enthusiasm. Of course, this was not because he felt neglected, but to prevent his junior sister from making a mistake.

"Junior sister, if you want to take on disciples, you need to inform Master first. Don't make the decision on your own."

As he spoke, he smiled apologetically at Lin Xueyi, indicating that he had no other choice and hoped she wouldn't mind.

“Just tell Master. That’s easy. So far, Master hasn’t refused me anything. It’s just taking on a disciple. I don’t think our Luo City Sword Sect would be so stingy.”

Hearing his junior sister's words, Liu Changfeng was momentarily speechless. His master truly doted on him, her last disciple. If it was what she said, he would definitely grant her wish. It was just taking on a disciple; he could consider it finding her a playmate, so naturally he would agree.

"Um, thanks, but I really don't like learning kung fu." Lin Xueyi scratched her head. Learning poetry and literature? This homebody of hers graduated with a degree in liberal arts. She hadn't memorized enough classical poems back then. Now that she's transmigrated, she's being asked to memorize them? Memorize them? What a load of rubbish! She'd be stupid to go.

"Are you going or not?" Her almond-shaped eyes widened.

"I'm not going." The answer was firm and resolute.

"Are you going to learn or not?"

"I won't learn, I won't learn, I'd rather die than learn."

Gritting her teeth and filled with rage, Gu Duoduo reached out to grab Lin Xueyi's hand, but to her surprise, Lin Xueyi nimbly dodged and hid between Su Mengsha and Mu Xuan'er.

"No, I'm not going. What's the point of learning poetry and literature? I don't need it. I still want to travel the world with Sister Su."

Her delicate eyebrows curved with obvious satisfaction after hearing Lin Xueyi's words; this girl was indeed very well-behaved.

However, the little girl on the other side became even more displeased, "Your Sister Su's cultivation is probably not as good as my senior brother's. I am much more powerful than my senior brother."

"So what? In my eyes, Sister Su is amazing."

Gu Duoduo felt utterly exasperated; she couldn't reason with this little girl at all. "Don't you want to find a more powerful master?"

Lin Xueyi tilted her head with a puzzled look, staring at the exasperated little girl. "So, you also want to find an even more powerful master?"

Hiss, as soon as these words were spoken, the air in the room suddenly turned cold.

Main text: Chapter Fourteen Poetry Gathering

Dried fruits, candied fruits, and various snacks—Gu Duoduo seemed very determined to take Lin Xueyi as her apprentice. Even though she had refused before, she still discussed it with her senior brother and accepted his suggestion.

That means being nicer to this girl, and then using sweet talk to win her over and make her your apprentice.

Gu Duoduo believed this without a doubt, so she took out the snacks that her master had given her and shared them with Lin Xueyi.

So, the two little girls were secretly sitting behind the crowd, carefully tasting various snacks and treats, completely ignoring the poetry gathering that was in progress.

"Who is that person? Why are they being so fussy and indecisive? It's just a poem, why are they looking down on others like that?"

At this moment, Lin Xueyi looked at the white-robed man with the folding fan on the stage who seemed aggressive because his poem was better than another person's. She couldn't help but feel speechless. Even if he wrote a doggerel, he could still show off his superiority. She was speechless.

"You mean him? Let me think... his name is Liu Ling. Why did you fall for him? He's no good. His cultivation isn't that great, and he always looks down on people. All he can do is write a few poems to fool young girls."

Speaking of Liu Ling in the middle, Gu Duoduo had just taken a bite of candied fruit, her face full of disdain. Her tone towards that man was even more dismissive.

"Don't be fooled by his fancy clothes now; he's actually a master at deceiving naive young girls."

"Huh? You didn't fall for that trick too, did you?" Seeing Gu Duoduo's resentment, Lin Xueyi put a piece of red bean cake from the plate into her mouth, took a bite, and said while eating.

Of course, the consequence of doing this was that the red bean paste cake in his hand was snatched away by the furious little girl.

Are you getting angry out of embarrassment?

"No, I'm just giving you a punishment, to make you think and speculate for no reason. I would be fooled by such a shallow man. Ha, he fooled one of our sect's senior sisters."

"Oh, I see. This is the legendary creation from nothing? Hey, leave me this red bean cake, okay? I won't say anything more, I won't say anything more."

Seeing Lin Xueyi clinging to her and snatching the red bean paste cake, Gu Duoduo felt inexplicably delighted.

"Let's see if you'll still talk nonsense. Alright, here's a red bean paste cake for you. If you like it, I'll get you some more. The senior sisters will make quite a few for today's poetry gathering."

Gu Duoduo looked around and noticed that the two senior brothers next to her were focused on the people reciting poetry, so she quickly ran over and took the snacks that had been on their table.

"Senior Brother Lin, Senior Brother Ma, I'm taking your snacks."

The two men dressed in Luocheng Sword Sect uniforms, whose names had been called, looked at each other in surprise, then glanced at Lin Xueyi, who was staring in disbelief at the scene, and gave her a doting smile.

"I brought this for your friend, take this with you too."

The two senior brothers then took the snacks from their friend sitting next to them and handed them to Gu Duoduo, ignoring the friend's speechless expression.

"Thank you, senior brothers." Gu Duoduo deliberately ignored the conversation between her senior brothers and their friends, and happily placed the two plates of pastries in front of Lin Xueyi.

"Here, let's eat."
