155: Chapter 155 If a fight breaks out, who should I help?

Xiao Zhan’s voice wasn’t loud, but the others still heard him.

Luo Qingxue reacted, her face instantly turning red.

Xiao Zhan’s words were obvious; Luo Qingxue and Zhang Bufan had not known each other before, but now she was standing so close to him. It was no wonder they were misunderstood.

Zhang Bufan also noticed Luo Qingxue’s blush. He quickly glared fiercely at Xiao Zhan and scolded, “Immortal Maiden Luo Qingxue is the Saintess of Piao Miao Holy Land. What nonsense are you spouting? Hurry up and apologize.”

Xiao ZhanShrink his neck and obediently said, “I’m sorry, Immortal Maiden Luo, I didn’t know you and my Great Master were not in that kind of relationship. Please forgive me.”

“Yes, Xiao Xue, this is my Junior Brother, Xiao Zhan. He’s been a bit slow-witted since he was young and isn’t good with words,” Zhang Bufan echoed with a dry laugh.

Luo Qingxue’s face grew even redder. It would have been better if the two Senior Brothers hadn’t explained; this explanation made it seem as if she had some kind of relationship with him.

Xiao Zhan’s original words were already quite vague, but now, the more they explained, the worse it got.

“It’s…it’s nothing,” Luo Qingxue said, lowering her head, her cheeks burning.

Xiao Zhan looked at Luo Qingxue’s flustered appearance and thought to himself, “Great Master is really something. He even called her Xiao Xue. They’re so intimate. They clearly have a relationship, but he won’t admit it.

Is Great Master afraid that the Young Miss of Wanbao Pavilion will find out?

That’s right, it must be like this.

The Young Miss of Wanbao Pavilion is exceptionally good to Great Master. If they don’t have some unspeakable relationship, I wouldn’t believe it even if you beat me to death.

Not only that, there’s also Second Senior Sister. Second Senior Sister seems to be quite unusual towards Great Master, and Great Master is the same.”

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhan secretly looked at Fire Qingrou, but what met his gaze was Second Senior Sister’s fierce look.

“Holy crap, I really guessed it right,” Xiao Zhan quickly lowered his head, mentally filling in the blanks.

Great Master is truly amazing. Three beauties, and he’s won them all over. I wonder if these three women will fight over Great Master when the truth comes out later?

If they fight, should I help or not?

If I help, who should I help?

Forget it, I’ll help my Second Senior Sister. After all, we’re Senior Brothers and Sisters, a bit closer.

Just as Xiao Zhan was still daydreaming, the Baldy on his shoulder let out a loud cry and quickly jumped towards Zhang Bufan.

“Chirp, chirp, chirp!” Baldy let out excited cries, wanting to jump onto Zhang Bufan’s shoulder and rub against him intimately, recounting the pain of their separation during this time.

“Damn it!” Zhang Bufan saw the dirty Baldy pouncing on him and, without thinking, kicked him directly.

“Chirp, chirp, chirp!”

“Chirp, chirp, chirp!”

Baldy flew out with a miserable cry.

Xiao Zhan and Fire Qingrou looked at Baldy with some sympathy.

Luo Qingxue, on the side, was very confused. Young Master Zhang’s Spirit Pet clearly missed him, so why was it still being hit?

Baldy stopped after hitting a large tree, then slowly walked back, feeling wronged, its eyes brimming with tears.

“Alright, stop acting. Look at you, how dirty have you become?” Zhang Bufan finished scolding, then turned to Xiao Zhan, “And you, you reek! Why don’t you go find a place to bathe and change into clean clothes?”

“Great Master, I’ve already changed my clothes,” Xiao Zhan said weakly. Every time he put on new clothes, they would be ruined in battle not long after.

“Get lost,” Zhang Bufan threw a Storage Ring to Xiao Zhan. “There’s a river over there. We’ll wait for you up ahead.”

With that, Zhang Bufan led Fire Qingrou and the others forward.

Xiao Zhan and Baldy exchanged glances, then silently headed towards the river.

Xiao Zhan originally had a belly full of things to tell Zhang Bufan, but now, having been scolded as soon as they met, there was no need to say anything.

He looked down at his body and muttered, “Does a Cultivator really need to care about these things?”

Baldy felt even more wronged. It didn’t even know where it was dirty.

It didn’t even have feathers, and it got kicked for no reason. It felt it had died unjustly.

Half an hour later.

Xiao Zhan changed into a clean white robe and came before Zhang Bufan with Baldy.

Zhang Bufan surveyed the man and the bird, then nodded slightly.

Seeing Zhang Bufan nod, Baldy excitedly pounced onto Zhang Bufan.

Zhang Bufan casually slapped it, sending Baldy flying out again.

Immediately, he looked at Xiao Zhan again and said with satisfaction, “Not bad, you’ve already broken through to the Late Stage Kai Shan Realm.”

Xiao Zhan looked at Baldy with some sympathy, then looked at Zhang Bufan and the others, “Hello Great Master, hello Second Senior Sister, hello Senior Brother Three, and this sister-in-law…oh no, Luo…”

“That’s enough,” Zhang Bufan quickly waved his hand to interrupt, and asked, “How have you been during this time? Have you been bullied?”

Xiao Zhan shook his head and slowly said, “We didn’t encounter many Cultivators. Most of the time, we were dealing with the Yao Beasts here. It’s Baldy who likes to cause trouble, often stealing Spirit Medicine guarded by those Yao Beasts. Every time, I’m the one who cleans up his mess.”

Xiao Zhan, who already held some resentment towards Baldy, immediately sold Baldy out.

“Chirp, chirp, chirp!” Baldy quickly ran over, chirping loudly in protest.

Zhang Bufan didn’t speak, a smile on his face, quietly watching the man and the bird.

“Alright, Baldy, stop bragging. You say those Yao Beasts are afraid of you? Then how did you almost get frozen into an ice sculpture? At the time, I even thought you were dead, and tears almost flowed out,” Xiao Zhan continued to twist the knife.

“Chirp, chirp, chirp!” Baldy opened its bird’s mouth, but its language wasn’t clear, and it didn’t know how to explain, so it urgently cast a pleading look at Zhang Bufan.

“Alright, I understand,” Zhang Bufan waved his hand. “Baldy, your Bloodline is very powerful, but those Yao Beasts without awakened sentience might not play along. Be careful in the future, don’t get eaten as a snack.”

After speaking, Zhang Bufan looked at Xiao Zhan again, a smile on his face. This Junior Brother used to be a quiet person, but now he had become much more cheerful.

Xiao Zhan felt a chill from Zhang Bufan’s gaze and quickly changed the subject, “Great Master, what should we do next?”

“What else can we do? Since we’re in, of course, we’ll see if there are any treasures,” As Zhang Bufan spoke, he suddenly caught sight of the dejected Baldy. He remembered something and quickly beckoned, “Baldy, come here.”

Baldy abruptly lifted its head and excitedly jumped onto Zhang Bufan’s shoulder, its previous unhappiness swept away, diligently rubbing its head against Zhang Bufan.

“Lick-bird!” Fire Qingrou cursed, turning her face away.

Zhang Bufan reached out and stroked Baldy’s head, saying, “Hmm, not bad. Those few bird feathers have grown much longer. It seems you’ve eaten a lot of Spirit Medicine during this time. This is Immortal Maiden Luo. She’s injured. You can heal her.”

“Chirp, chirp, chirp!” Baldy excitedly raised its head, then looked at Luo Qingxue and spat out a green light from its mouth.

Luo Qingxue’s expression changed, and she quickly tried to pull away and dodge, but her available Qi was limited at the moment, and the green light Baldy spat out was too sudden and too fast. She couldn’t dodge it at all.
