Suddenly, his fist landed on empty air, and the door was opened.
A slender and fair servant girl stood in front of him and smiled brightly. âThis must be Second Grandfather, right? Sect Master invites you in.â
The old man narrowed his eyes and stared at the servant girl in front of him in confusion. He then looked up at the board above the door.
Tranquil Void Monastery⊠this is the right place. Where the hell did this servant girl come from?
âSecond Grandfather?â
âAh? Oh!â The old man scratched his head. âYour Sect Master⊠Xiang Zichen?â
The servant girl giggled. âOf course. Who else would it be? Here, Second Grandfather. Servant is called Xiao Yu, and I serve Second Miss.â
The old man followed the servant girl in confusion. When he entered the side palace hall, Xiang Zichen was indeed sitting there.
Not only was Xiang Zichen there, but even Xiang Zimei and Yanâer were sitting there with serious looks on their faces.
Other than them, there were two gorgeous servant girls beside Xiang Zichen, one massaging him and the other making tea.
Weird. Today feels extremely weird⊠I donât even dare to take anything.
âSenior Uncle.â Seeing him enter, all three stood up to greet him. Xiang Zichen smiled and ushered him to a seat, smiling thinly. âPlease have a seat.â
The old man coughed and looked at them in doubt. âWhat are you doing?â
âWhat do you mean?â Xiang Zimei asked. âJust following the rules.â
As the old man sat down, the three of them sat down too.
âRules?â
After saying that, the servant girl who was making tea came over. âSecond Grandfather, hereâs your tea. Please enjoy it.â
Seeing the fair hand of the servant girl, the old man reached out to grab it. Unexpectedly, the servant girl shuddered and poured the tea onto his hand accidentally.
âAh!â
Xiang Zichen and his juniors started panicking.
Lu Mingshu, who was standing behind Xiang Zichen, pushed him back down. On the other hand, Xiang Zimei received a glance from Zhou Ruying and sat back down herself.
âHey, you idiot servant, clean up for this old man right now!â the old man yelled and looked over to Xiang Zichen. âJunior Nephew, youâre getting richer now, eh? You can even afford servant girls.â
âHeh.â Xiang Zichen chuckled. He didnât know what to say, and remembering what Zhou Ruying said, he decided to just keep quiet.
âIâm so sorry, your slave is all thumbs, Iâm so sorryâŠ.â Ling Wuxia âfranticallyâ apologized and immediately took out a cloth to help him clean up. âUnfortunately,â she banged against the candle oil on the table, which fell onto the old man along with the lit candle.
âFuck!â The old man screamed. Being doused with oil and then a lit candleâŠ
He jumped up frantically and patted his crotch profusely. âWater, bring water!â
âAh, sorry! Servant didnât mean to!â The servant girl, âXiao Hua,â turned fully pale.
âSecond Grandfather, waterâs here!â The servant girl, âXiao Yu,â took the pot of tea that Ling Wuxia was making and poured it on his crotch.
âAhâŠ!â A miserable shriek rang across the monastery.
Lu Mingshu tried to hide her laughter. This old fellow, who asked him to flirt with Ling Wuxia? That was the goddess who had all the clans in Beiming in the palm of her hand, and she could be considered the most bitchy person in Beiming. Why would she let anyone take advantage of her?
After everything was put out, the old man looked like he was dying. âYou guys, youâŠ!â
âSenior UncleâŠâ Xiang Zichen went over, at a loss on what to do.
âSecond Grandfather, do you need servant to get a doctor over?â Zhou Ruying asked, giving him a fake smile.
âThatâs too expensive!â Ling Wuxia pouted, âServant heard that cold water can heal burn injuries. This Servant will get Second Grandfather some water right away!â
This made the old man panic. âNo need!â he screamed. He threw Xiang Zichen and Xiang Zimei a dirty glance before limping off.
As soon as he left, Yanâer jumped up, grinning from ear to ear. âThere he goes. There Senior Uncle goes!â
âYay!â Xiang Zimei ran to her and gave her a high five.
In the room, Xiang Zichen was the only one who looked gloomy. âWill anything happen if Senior Uncle leaves just like that?â
âWhat could possibly happen?â Ling Wuxia threw the cloth on the table and rolled her eyes. âYouâre a coward. His cultivation is no higher than yours, so thereâs nothing for you to be afraid of in the first place.â
âBut thatâs Senior Uncle!â
âHeh.â Ling Wuxia said nothing more.
âSenior Uncleâ your head. If you canât be as cunning and controlling as me, then at least learn from Lu Mingshu and talk with your fist!
âYou guysâŠâ Xiang Zimei stared at them weirdly. âWho are you guys?â
Zhou Ruying tidied her clothes and smiled gently. âWe are servant girls that you bought, arenât we?â
ââŠâ
âOkay,â Lu Mingshu interrupted. âItâs basic courtesy to admit things when we are using their space, right?â
Zhou Ruying and Ling Wuxia couldnât retort.
They had wanted to keep things a secret, but who couldâve known that that old man would be so annoying? Thus, they couldnât help it and ended up giving themselves away.
Xiang Zimei was already suspecting them, and in order to stay here safely, they needed to settle this matter.
âIn shortâŠâ Lu Mingshu smiled. âWe three met with some incident, and now we need to stay here for a period of time. To thank you all, we will help you solve your troubles.â
âSisters, are you the honourable seniors spoken of in the books?â Yanâer whispered.
âNot that good, but better than you all.â Zhou Ruying chuckled.
Xiang Zichen and Xiang Zimei exchanged glances.
These three were so dominating that they didnât even need cultivation to dominate Xiang Zichen and his juniors.
âThenâŠâ Xiang Zimei asked cautiously, âwhat do you need us to do?â
âNothing.â Ling Wuxia smiled. âWe are just here to lodge, no need to bother with us.â
âOh, okayâŠ.â
Xiang Zichen looked around as if there was something that he wanted to say. He stood up abruptly and bowed. âSeniors, I have a request.â
Before he could continue, Ling Wuxia cut him off. âForget it, we wonât agree.â
âSeniorâŠâ
âWhatâs the big deal in letting him say it?â Seeing her act this way, Zhou Ruying interrupted in annoyance. âOh kind and very caring Miss Ling, you arenât acting very friendly and kind right now. Whereâs your mask?â
Speaking of that, it got on Ling Wuxiaâs nerves.
If not for you two country bumpkins, I would still be in Beiming as the goddess I am!
âWhat does it have to do with you whether I put my mask on or not?â
âI donât know.â Zhou Ruying shrugged, looking at her nails. âI just want to show those people in Beiming how the successor disciple of Ancient Jade Summit is acting right now.â
âYouâŠ!â
Seeing that they were about to quarrel, Lu Mingshu stepped in. âYou had quite a happy time yesterday with commenting on how I acted, and yet youâre doing the same thing now?â

Ling Wuxia huffed and looked away.
Zhou Ruying coughed and sat down. âSheâs the one who wants to fight. Sheâs cherishing every moment she has where she can live without the mask!â
Ling Wuxia looked like she was about to skin Zhou Ruying.
âShut up!â Lu Mingshu facepalmed and turned to Xiang Zichen. âWhat is it? Iâll hear you out.â
