Qian Qiuxue changed into a white dress today. I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but it was exactly the inner sect chief’s attire she was wearing when she first met Yan Mobai.

Yan Mobai was stunned.

It’s not because of Qian Qiuxue’s dress.

It was because her temperament had changed a lot compared to yesterday when she turned away and returned to the courtyard.

If Qian Qiuxue yesterday was a woman who was full of sorrow because she couldn't get what she wanted, the woman in front of him seemed to have completely freed herself from the shackles in her heart and regained her former confidence.

"Yan originally wanted to cook this wild boar and bring it back, but his cooking skills were not good enough and it was hard to eat, so he had to give up."

There was nothing to hide. He knew that Qian Qiuxue had been watching for a long time before she spoke.

The figure in white skirt on the rocks in the stream flashed, and appeared beside Yan Mobai the next moment.

Yan Mobai immediately used all his strength to resist his heart meridian.

"Why do you look like this, Master?" Qian Qiuxue frowned slightly, "Are you worried that I might hurt you?"

"My cultivation is low, and I dare not be arrogant in front of the sect master."

"Since I promised to let you two go, why would I still attack you?"

"Then only the master himself knows."

"Master, do you not trust me so much?"

"I just don't want to put my fate in the hands of others."

Faced with Yan Mobai's flawless answer, Qian Qiuxue gave up the topic. She walked to the broad leaves where the animal meat was piled and gently placed her jade hand on the piece of meat.

"My disciple is weak, and I don't want to see her go hungry." She pinched a piece of leg meat, and blood dripped down her jade-white fingertips. "The leader is not good at this, can I do it for you?"

This sentence undoubtedly avoided what Yan Mobai had said before, that immortals and demons cannot coexist, and also found a suitable reason for the subsequent actions.

It is normal for the master to cook for his seriously injured disciple.

Yan Mobai stared at the expression on her face and whispered, "She may not eat what you cook."

Qian Qiuxue raised her eyebrows: "What if it wasn't me?"

In the blink of an eye, her white dress turned into a black outfit, her long silver hair turned light gold and was tied behind her head with a ribbon. There was also a sword on her waist. The silver-plated snake pattern on the scabbard emitted a cold glow, adding a bit of solemnity to her.

Yan Mobai looked up and down at this cold and fierce woman. After this change, neither her temperament nor her appearance looked like Qian Qiuxue at all.

Next chapter will be updated in the morning

Chapter 51: Random Thoughts

"I hope the Sect Master is truly thinking about Yu Luo."

After a brief surprise, Yan Mobai did not choose to refuse.

At present, Li Yulo really needs the flesh of spiritual beasts to recover.

He was not a rigid person, and would not delay other people's work because of his own opinion, not to mention that the other person was Li Yuluo. Since the other party could help Yuluo, he had no reason to refuse.

With the divine sense of refining the spirit, he has a premonition of future disasters and will be able to detect any problems with the food in advance, so he is not afraid of Qian Qiuxue tampering with the food.

However... there was still one thing that made him very suspicious.

Qian Qiuxue, this noble young lady who rose from the daughter of the Yuheng Sect Master to the chief senior sister, and then to the Yuheng Sect Master, can she cook?

Cooking is like making elixirs. If you don’t study the techniques and know the tricks involved, even a cultivator with high cultivation will end up making a mess.

Yan Mobai sat down on the stone. He wanted to see how the other party processed the fishy animal meat into something edible.

Qian Qiuxue picked up a piece of animal meat, and with a flash of light in her hand, she cut it into many small pieces that floated in the air.

The next moment, the small pieces of animal meat and a few green grass leaves in the air mixed together and were all turned into mud by an invisible force. The mud became more and more solid as it was constantly stirred and kneaded, and blood dripped onto the grass.

When the blood stopped dripping, Qian Qiuxue waved her hand and put it into the stone pot.

The whole meat paste was divided into dozens of round meatballs. She brought a stream of clear spring water from upstream into the pot, lit a spiritual fire to boil it, and then added various vegetables, fungi and unknown wild flowers.

When the aroma became stronger, Qian Qiuxue took out a small packet of salt and sprinkled it into the pot.

After a while, she waved her hand to extinguish the spiritual fire, turned around and said, "Master, please have a taste of my cooking skills."

Yan Mobai walked over. The soup in the stone pot was crystal clear without any impurities or bubbles. The emerald greens and the pink-brown meatballs complemented each other, with white mushrooms floating in between, each of them looking plump and juicy.

It's just a good-looking appearance...

Yan Mobai still had doubts in his heart. He picked up the obsidian spoon, scooped a spoonful of soup from the pot, and picked up a meatball.

Before you even put it in your mouth, the aroma of meat mixed with the freshness of grass has already hit your nose. The meatballs in the spoon are regular and smooth, and the soup under the meatballs is crystal clear with bits of oil floating on it.

Having not eaten for a long time, the aroma immediately aroused his hunger, but Yan Mobai resisted the strong appetite. After carefully sensing it, he confirmed that Qian Qiuxue had not done anything wrong before putting it into his mouth.

As soon as I bit into it, I felt the meatball was firm and chewy. When the meatball touched the tip of my tongue, I felt the delicateness and softness of its surface. The spirit beast meat that had been repeatedly pressed into a paste was full of soup. It quickly melted between my tongue and teeth before I could chew it a few times.

The grass leaves mixed in the meatballs completely removed the peculiar smell, leaving only the sweetness of the spirit beast meat and the light fragrance of the vegetables and grass. At the same time, the soup fully absorbed the freshness of the mushrooms and meatballs. It looks clear and translucent, but tastes as rich as a long-simmered broth.

Yan Mobai couldn't help but sigh and said, "The sect master's skills are beyond my reach."

He did not blame the gap on his cultivation level. Even when he was at the peak of spiritual perfection, no one cared about the food he cooked.

"If the Master can change his mind someday, I can cook for you every meal."

These understated words were like thunder in my ears.

Yan Mobai's eyes suddenly condensed: "What do you mean by this, Sect Master?"

"Master, please don't misunderstand me."

Qian Qiuxue lowered her eyes and smiled softly, "What I meant by changing my mind was just what the Sect Master said before, that there is a difference between immortals and demons."

Yan Mobai looked at her deeply.

This was the first time a smile appeared on Qian Qiuxue's face since he met her.

The previous change in temperament could be explained by her deliberate disguise, but these words were definitely not something the previous Qian Qiuxue would say.

He couldn't help but think of the memories of his previous life. After the incident in the Western Regions, Qian Qiuxue chose to practice a forbidden technique in secret in order to relieve the pain of the poison.

The side effects of the access control method were the main reason why she eventually fell into madness.

Its name is... Thousand Illusions Sutra.

This sutra is divided into two independent parts: the Physiognomy Sutra and the Heart Sutra. The Physiognomy Sutra is a secret art of disguise that can reshape the body and fabricate external appearance. When it is practiced to the extreme, only the legendary immortals can see the flaws.

Qian Qiuxue practiced the Physiognomy Sutra, which could make her body's pain sense extremely dull, greatly reducing the pain of the poison. If not, in the original novel, the poison in her body would have multiplied by a million times in less than two years, and she would not have been able to survive until the day of madness.

The Heart Sutra is about controlling one's mind and thoughts, being able to see through illusions and not be disturbed by any illusions.

If one practices the Heart Sutra to perfection, one's own spiritual heart will no longer be damaged by external factors and will be indestructible, which will be of great benefit to the path of spiritual practice.

People with dull talents can reach a high level of cultivation as long as they have a firm determination, not to mention geniuses who are naturally gifted.

However, when practicing the Heart Sutra one must not have too deep an obsession, otherwise one may give in to the obsession at any time and split off a secondary personality.

The secondary personality inherits the memory and preferences of the original personality, and is no different from the main personality except that its personality is very different. Moreover, its obsession is much stronger than that of the main personality.

The reason why the world regards the Thousand Illusions Sutra as a forbidden method, rather than the Heart Sutra alone, is precisely because the Aspect Sutra and the Heart Sutra are related. If the person practicing the Aspect Sutra has an extreme obsession in his heart, the Heart Sutra will operate naturally. People whose Taoism heart is not strong will inevitably have distracting thoughts.

If the problem is not resolved for a long time, it will eventually become the main issue.

As for Qian Qiuxue in front of him, her demeanor and temperament were so different from yesterday that Yan Mobai couldn't help but wonder if there was really something wrong with her martial arts.

In the novel he had read in his previous life, Qian Qiuxue was tortured by a poison for several years and hated the Demon Cult to the extreme, so she developed a dark personality. In the end, the main personality even merged with it and fell deeper and deeper into depravity.

At that time, her obsession was to destroy the evil cult... and now that she is no longer tortured by the poison, what is her obsession?

Yan Mobai already had some guesses in his mind. If it was really as he thought, the situation would be much worse than before.

Qian Qiuxue...I'm afraid she's really going crazy.

At present, the sub-personality has just emerged and will not last long. He only hopes that she can handle the changes in herself after her main personality returns. Otherwise, he can only take Li Yuluo and leave first.

……

In the small wooden house, Li Yulo was lying on the bed, hugging a pillow made of straw, looking at the ceiling helplessly with his big eyes.

If the leader really brings back the food he made, should he eat it or not?

If you don't eat it, you will hurt the leader's heart.

If you eat...

If you spit it out, won’t you be even more sad?

and so.

You have to eat it, and control yourself from vomiting it out...

Thinking of the taste of the roasted rabbit that day, the girl shivered and huddled up in a ball.

If I had known this, I should have bought some dry food in Ning'an County...

The door of the wooden house was not closed, and the sound of footsteps came from far away, beating on Li Yulo's heart like the drumbeat of death.

grunt.

The girl swallowed fearfully.

Chapter 52: It's Hard to Hide Your Feelings

"Ah! I'm not afraid of death, but I'm afraid of eating!"

The girl sat up in despair, her large violet eyes filled with solemnity and tragedy, as if she were a prisoner about to be taken to the execution ground.

"The meal cooked by the leader is so terrible!"

Isn't it just that the food is so unpalatable...it can't be any more unpalatable...

She got out of bed trembling, and her fair, tender little feet tapped the shoes several times before she managed to get them into place.

When I reached the door, the person outside just pushed it open and came in.

"Teacher..." The girl was about to greet the visitor, but when she saw who it was, her expression froze, "Master?"

Li Yulo took two steps back and looked at the woman in black behind Yan Mobai in surprise and suspicion.

Who is this woman?

She looked the visitor up and down warily.

Black outfit...silver-gilded scabbard...

Definitely not an ordinary person.

The girl was not stupid enough to think that the leader went out to find food for herself and ended up finding a wild woman. There was no village in front and no shop behind. Who would come here normally?

She had another meaning in mind.

The leader was held hostage.

The woman behind the leader... was sent by the righteous sect to hunt them down.

"You..." She swallowed dryly, "Are you from the Yuheng Immortal Sect?"

Qian Qiuxue looked at her and replied, "Yes."

Li Yulo's pupils contracted. In her eyes, the bright sky behind the woman in black suddenly dimmed, and that flawless and beautiful face became as hideous as a ghost.

She instinctively stepped forward and grabbed the corner of the leader's clothes, trying to protect him behind her, but she didn't move him at all.

Li Yulo was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that he had lost his cultivation. His eyes dimmed slightly, and his hands weakly slipped off his robe bit by bit.

Yan Mobai noticed the girl's little movement, and quietly put his hand below, just catching her soft and boneless little hand, holding it tightly, and then pulling her into his arms.

"Master..." Li Yulo trembled and raised his head absentmindedly.

His chin was just slightly higher than the girl's head. She hid underneath it, like a person returning home taking shelter under the eaves on a rainy night. All the wind and rain were blocked tightly from above.

Although there was no spiritual energy fluctuation on his body, Li Yuluo felt extremely at ease. There was always a thought in her heart telling her that the people around her could really protect her from wind and rain, even if those winds and rains were extremely violent and could uproot any high walls and courtyards.

She couldn't help but stretch out her other hand and hold the leader's hand, then turned to look at the woman in black.

This time, there was no panic in Li Yuluo's eyes.
