The little monk didn't say anything, but with a deadpan expression, he took out a golden long staff from his storage ring and tossed it to Yunping.

Clearly, this is the Buddhist artifact he had previously promised.

Yunping took the long staff, smiled, and then put it into his storage ring.

Although this Buddhist artifact isn't of particularly high quality, it's still at the level of a royal artifact. However, it seems none of my disciples use a staff, so I'll keep it for now.

Before Yunping could speak, Qin Shishi spoke up somewhat shakily.

"Um... sir, may I ask a question?"

"Go ahead and ask, what's the big deal?"

Yunping found the difference in Qin Shishi's appearance before and after somewhat amusing, considering she had previously said that she didn't look like the teacher Yuan'er had mentioned.

Little did he know how terrified Qin Shishi was. She was from the Qin Sect and naturally had some dealings with the Painting Sect. When she saw the realm depicted in the painting, she was completely dumbfounded.

He's still regretting his rude remarks.

"Um... I wanted to ask, are you one of those legendary... tenth-tier painters?"

"That's exactly the question I wanted to ask."

Qin Shishi had just begun to ask her question when a graceful figure walked in from the side.

Hua Xianzi, who had always presented herself to the world with an aloof and superior demeanor, was now walking toward Yun Ping with a serious expression.

15. It's just a scallion.

Hua Xianzi's identity remains a mystery throughout Maple Leaf City.

Everyone knows that Fairy Hua comes from a noble family and has a high level of cultivation. They also know that she has a good relationship with the city lord of Maple Leaf City, but no one knows where she came from or what her purpose is in coming to Maple Leaf City.

No one even knew Hua Xianzi's real name. Even those who harbored feelings of love for her and secretly used countless connections to search for her background only called her Hua Xianzi.

No matter how much they desired Fairy Hua's alluring and graceful body, none of them dared to force themselves on her.

Because there was once a powerful and influential man who took a fancy to Fairy Hua and used some underhanded means to force her to cultivate with him.

However, this important figure, whom even the city lord of Maple Leaf City dared not provoke, vanished overnight.

It was truly reduced to ashes, bones crushed and dust scattered, leaving not a trace.

Even the sect that the important figure belonged to kept silent about it, and even gave a large portion of its resources as an apology to Fairy Hua.

The fact that she could so easily eliminate such a powerful figure shows that Fairy Hua's identity is definitely extraordinary.

The murderous intent hidden beneath that delicate, multifaceted face and faint smile was enough to deter most suitors.

However, when Fairy Hua stood before the cloud, her naturally powerful aura inexplicably diminished.

"Fairy Hua... what brings you here too?"

Qin Shishi knew that Fairy Hua was of noble status, at least no lower than herself, so her tone couldn't help but show a hint of humility.

Hua Xianzi glanced at Qin Shishi lightly, "Miss Qin, I simply have some business with this esteemed painter."

After speaking, she glanced around at Ye Yuchan and the others with some curiosity, and finally fixed her gaze on Lin Yuan, who was holding Yun Ping's waist.

Hua Xianzi was taken aback at first, then a meaningful smile appeared on her lips.

In her view, it is normal for men of status and position to have their own private palace; she has seen many such powerful men with a dozen or twenty women.

Now it seems that this level 10 painter is probably the same.

These strangely dressed women are probably his women.

As for the petite girl in red...

Hua Xianzi chuckled lightly, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes. "This gentleman's sexual interests are quite peculiar..."

……

Yunping keenly noticed the fleeting change in Hua Xianzi's eyes and immediately gave a wry smile.

What do you mean? Does this mean you look down on lolicon?

However, Lao Yun doesn't admit to being a lolicon. Although he does like Xiao Yuan'er very much, his liking is fundamentally different from liking based on gender.

I just really like the little girl's well-behaved personality and adorable charm.

The old rogue was too lazy to explain anything to Fairy Hua. He turned around and sat on the soft sofa, picked up Xiao Yuan'er and put her on his lap, and casually glanced at Fairy Hua.

"So, what brings you here? What's the matter?"

His tone was exceptionally flippant, and this flippant unruliness was perceived by Fairy Hua as the arrogance of a tenth-level painter.

High-level artists often have eccentric personalities, and their extreme language is nothing unusual.

She bowed slightly, offering a subtle gesture of respect to Yun Ping, her tone unusually calm.

"I don't mean anything by it, I just wanted to ask if you are one of the tenth-level painters in the Painting Sect."

"What does it matter whether I am or not?" Yun Ping turned to the side and took a sip of his wine. "Is this important to you?"

Hua Xianzi nodded slightly, her gaze exceptionally solemn. "It's very important. As you should know, this art gallery event is a very important event for our Maple Leaf City. Your appearance was not part of the plan."

Yun Ping narrowed his eyes. "So, I ruined your plans?"

“In a way, yes.” Fairy Hua had no intention of deceiving Yun Ping; she knew it was pointless. “However, your appearance is not a bad thing for Maple Leaf City. At least… many families and sects have already asked you to paint for them.”

It's true. Right after the art gallery ended, many families and sects started asking her about the real identity of the pink bunny, but she didn't answer any of them.

Even with Hua Xianzi's broad perspective, she couldn't accurately determine Yunping's true identity.

All she knew was that he was no ordinary man.

"So you want me to... paint for them?"

"No, given your status, I'm afraid the price to invite you to paint here would be quite high."

"Hehe." Yunping chuckled. "There's no need for that. I was just sketching casually."

Upon hearing the words "drawing casually," Hua Xianzi and Qin Shishi and the others beside her inexplicably twitched at the corners of their mouths.

If you're just casually drawing like this, what would happen if you were to seriously draw something, wouldn't you be competing with Emperor Wen?

Seeing Hua Xianzi's stomach-ache-like expression, Yun Ping chuckled and said, "Alright, just say what you want to do. I don't like beating around the bush."

"I'm just here to confirm your identity, and by the way... I have a request to make."

"What request?"

"A request from the City Lord's Mansion."

As soon as he said that, Yunping knew what Fairy Hua was up to.

So it turns out the city lord of Maple Leaf City secretly witnessed all of this and is now planning to invite him for tea.

Yunping accepted the invitation from the city lord without the slightest hesitation.

"Not interested, I'm not going."

"Please don't refuse so quickly, Your Excellency." As if she had already anticipated Yun Ping's refusal, Hua Xianzi added, "I can accompany you then, and..."

She paused deliberately, then stepped forward.

Her delicate figure pressed against Yunping's chest, a blush rising on her charming and exquisite face, her full breasts rubbing against Yunping's slightly thin arms.

A fragrant aroma wafted into her nose, and Hua Xianzi, who was adored and revered as a goddess by countless people, willingly threw herself into Yunping's arms.

"Furthermore, I cannot discern your true identity."

Hua Xianzi raised her head, whispered in Yun Ping's ear, and said in a voice that could melt bones, "If Your Excellency is willing to go, this humble woman could accompany you for a few drinks."

Judging from this, it wasn't just about sharing a few drinks; it was clearly a move to get Yunping pushed onto the bed.

Ye Yuchan's face was unusually ugly. She glared fiercely at Hua Xianzi, who had fallen into Yun Ping's arms, but the latter ignored her completely.

Meanwhile, Yuan'er, who had been holding Yunping, also sensed the threat, and for some reason, wisps of black energy seemed to emanate from her body.

In an instant, all the female disciples' eyes were on Yun Ping.

……

Well, I've gotten myself into trouble again.

Anyway, whenever another woman gets involved with him, it always leads to some kind of chaotic situation... It's really a pain in the stomach.

Amidst the complex and slightly murderous gazes of the female disciples, Yun Ping shoved Hua Xianzi aside, revealing a faint smile in response to her astonished expression.

"I'm sorry, I'm not really that interested in drinking, and I'm in a hurry to get back to my courtyard to rest. I'm not interested in the City Lord's Mansion or anything like that, and I'm too lazy to go."

Fairy Hua frowned, her cherry lips parted slightly, and she was about to say something—

But Yunping rudely interrupted him.

"Also, stop trying to seduce me with your tricks."

Yun Ping strode forward, grabbed Hua Xianzi's chin, lifted it slightly, and stared at Hua Xianzi with his deep black eyes.

He could clearly feel that the seemingly arrogant woman in front of him was trembling subtly.

The old rogue deliberately lowered his voice, making sure that only the two of them could hear what he said.

"Don't think I don't know what you're made of. With your level of cultivation, you should learn more from your sect leader."

After speaking, Yunping released his hand and turned around as if nothing had happened.

He glanced at Qin Shishi and the little monk Zhuang Hai, who were now completely dumbfounded, with a smile on his face.

"Well, I had a lot of fun this time, and I got what I wanted, so thank you, Miss Qin."

"Ah...no..."

Qin Shishi glanced blankly at Hua Xianzi, who was standing there in shock as if she had encountered a ghost, and thought for a moment, but ultimately did not ask her question.

She glanced timidly at the unremarkable young man in front of her, waving her hands repeatedly, "Nothing at all, you...you're happy as long as you're happy."

Faced with Qin Shishi's sudden display of respect, Yun Ping could only smile helplessly. He then gestured to his female disciples and said...

"Alright, we're done and it's time to head back to the courtyard house."

"So you actually know how to go back?" Ye Yuchan suddenly retorted. "I thought you were going to be captivated by that person."

That "who" clearly refers to Fairy Hua.
