2213 Are You Qualified?


    Second floor.


    Yan Ge pressed his ear against the door and listened with bated breath.


    When he heard Ming Shu’s words, he immediately beat his chest in frustration. “This fool! How can he be so direct!?”


    I only asked Ming Shu to probe and see if he could silently send the “Li Fire Xuan Painting” away. Why is it so obvious in the end? Even a fool can tell that something Is wrong!


    He already felt very ufortable when Master didn’t want him to show his face. He now wanted Ming Shu to do something for him, but it became such a difficult thing.


    Right on the heels of that, he heard his master’s spouse only pause for a moment before agreeing readily. “Sure.”


    There didn’t seem to be any hesitation or questions.


    Ming Shu immediately said, “Please—”


    Yan Ge pped his forehead and took a deep breath. It has been a few years since I’vee back, but this fool hasn’t improved at all. I definitely can’t count on him. Fortunately, he has given it away. I will take things one step at a time!


    “Miss Shangguan, please follow me.”


    Hearing that the two of them seemed to be nning to go upstairs, Yan Ge hurriedly took a few steps back andpletely restrained his aura.


    …


    After taking two steps, Ming Shu suddenly thought of something and looked at Xiao Ba and Hua Shuangshuang. “Well, what did the two of you take a fancy to just now? Just take it directly. I just need to register and make a list. In the future, these will be on Miss Shangguan’s ount.”


    The few of them were smart and immediately understood that only Chu Liuyue could go up to the second floor.


    Chu Liuyue didn’t mind and looked at the two of them. “Go ahead and choose. When you’re done, go back first. I might be a littlete.”


    Hua Shuangshuang said, “Master, we have nothing to do when we go back. Why don’t we wait here?”


    Chu Liuyue smiled and shook her head. “No need. I’ll go back after I’m done here.”


    Seeing that Chu Liuyue’s attitude was firm, Hua Shuangshuang and Xiao Ba couldn’t stop her anymore and could only agree.


    In a ce like Zhen Bao Pavilion, there was no need to do anything cheap in private. There was nothing to worry about.


    Xiao Ba was indeed short of herbs. Seeing that she had Master’s support, she didn’t stand on ceremony and moved half of the wall away.


    Chu Liuyue said, “…Xiao Ba, I remember that you took a lot from San San previously. Why do you want so much now?”


    Xiao Ba blinked and smiled enchantingly, wheedling. “Master also knows that I’m very picky about such things, so I naturally use it faster…”


    Chu Liuyue tapped her forehead. “Alright, alright, just take it away. If it’s not enoughter, juste again.”


    Xiao Ba’s beautiful eyes shed. “Master, you’re really the most beautiful when you spend money on me!”


    Chu Liuyue was already immune to her tricks. After getting Ming Shu to register, she sent the two of them away.


    “Phew—” Seeing the two of them leave in satisfaction, Chu Liuyue heaved a sigh of relief.


    Was it easy to raise arge family?


    “Miss Shangguan, please follow me.” From beginning to end, Ming Shu was very patient.


    Chu Liuyue nodded. “Thank you, Lord Ming.”


    With that, the two of them headed for the stairs in the middle.


    When she came forward, Chu Liuyue took a look.


    This staircase didn’t look any different from the stairs elsewhere.


    She had thought that there would be a barrier or something. But after thinking about it carefully, she increasingly felt that Zhen Bao Pavilion was very mysterious and powerful.


    There weren’t any barriers as defense, and there weren’t even many people. It looked casual, but in fact, it was all based on powerful strength and background.


    “Miss Shangguan, please—” Ming Shu turned around and raised his hand, inviting Chu Liuyue to go up first.


    Chu Liuyue was about to move when she suddenly heard a surprised voiceing from the door.


    “Lord Ming, what are you doing?!”


    The voice was a little familiar to Chu Liuyue.


    Chu Liuyue looked around and saw a familiar face. She turned around and looked back, raising her eyebrows slightly.


    Standing outside the door and looking over in shock, who else could it be but Mu Yafeng?


    “Miss Mu, why are you here again?” Seeing that it was Mu Yafeng, the smile on Ming Shu’s face instantly faded a lot, and his tone was no longer as polite and eager as when he treated Chu Liuyue.


    Mu Yafeng opened her mouth.


    On the way back, she suddenly remembered that apart from the “Li Fire Xuan Painting,” she stillcked some herbs, so she returned. However, she didn’t expect to see such a scene as soon as she arrived.


    What are they trying to do? If I didn’t hear wrongly, Ming Shu actually invited Shangguan Yue upstairs?! I was just rejected—in the blink of an eye!


    She saw clearly that Ming Shu’s attitude toward Shangguan Yue was clearly several times better than his attitude toward her. Even when she came here in the past and Ming Shu treated her politely, she had never received such treatment.


    “I…” Mu Yafeng’s mind was in a mess. It took her a while to find her voice. “I just wanted toe back and buy some herbs, but… Lord Ming, didn’t you just say that the second and third floors are no longer open to the public from today onward? What’s going on now?”


    She tried her best to suppress the surging emotions in her heart, but her words still revealed some unhappiness and anger from being deceived.


    Ming Shu took a step forward and said calmly, “That’s right. I did say that it’s not open to the public just now, but—Miss Shangguan isn’t an outsider.”


    Chu Liuyue’s eyshes trembled slightly.


    Mu Yafeng’s face turned pale. “Lord Ming, what you’re saying—”


    “Miss Shangguan is extremely talented as a Xuan Master, so we’ve already specially hired Miss Shangguan to replicate the Xuan formations in Zhen Bao Pavilion. This way, Miss Shangguan is naturally not an outsider.”


    Mu Yafeng almost suspected that she was hallucinating. She was so angry that sheughed. “Lord Ming, are you sure? I admit that she’s indeed very outstanding, but with her current level, she’s not qualified, right?”


    Actually, this wasn’t the first time Zhen Bao Pavilion had done such a thing. After all, many of the Xuan formation diagrams here were very precious, and there were many people who wanted them. The best way was to get someone to replicate them.


    However, this matter involved a lot of people after all, so Zhen Bao Pavilion was usually extremely strict with the personnel review.


    Back when Mu Yafeng wanted to get the “Li Fire Xuan Painting,” she had taken the initiative to mention this. However, she had been rejected in the end.


    She never expected that Zhen Bao Pavilion would directly invite Shangguan Yue, who wasn’t even a Grandmaster and didn’t even have a bloodline totem!


    If this news were to spread, countless people would have their jaws drop and be ck-jawed.


    “If Miss Shangguan isn’t qualified, then no one in Fantasy Divine Pce is qualified now.” Ming Shuughed. “Miss Mu, let me remind you. Back when you first started the Star Path, it took you a full 27 days to walk from the Heaven Gate to the Great King Xuan Master region. Moreover, this doesn’t include the several times you went to the Star Path previously to separate and study those Xuan formations. As for Miss Shangguan, she got there directly when she first arrived at the Fantasy Divine Pce. She finished in not even a fraction of your time.”


    “What position are you in now to question her qualifications?”
