Ch 310: Who Knows If She’s An Imposter
Several people looked strange and were preparing to search around.
Wu Qiuqiu suddenly twitched her eyelids and saw Xuan Qiu with a bulging chest and a stomach that looked like it had a big watermelon stuffed in it. He was standing in the corner, muttering something.
“Uncle Qiu?”
Wu Qiuqiu tentatively called out.
“Master hasn’t eaten these things. Leave some, for Master to eat, keep them all for Master…” Xuan Qiu’s cheeks flushed red, stuffing the things hidden in his arms into the corner.
Seeing Xuan Qiu’s appearance, Wu Qiuqiu knew what was going on.
Uncle Qiu was drunk.
“Lord Uncle, you want to give it to Qiuzai’s father. You can ask Uncle Shi Mu to make some later. This food will spoil if left out,” She Xiuxiu, not understanding, kindly went over to remind him.
As soon as she got close, Xuan Qiu became vigilant and covered the place where he hid the food.
Turning around, he drunkenly shooed She Xiuxiu away.
“Go, don’t touch my things, these are for Master, no one is allowed to take them!”
Although Xuan Qiu was drunk, his momentum remained. As soon as he spoke, a sharp aura swept over.
Wu Qiuqiu was startled, thinking that Xuan Qiu was going to act up drunk. She was about to stop him when Xuan Qiu tilted his head and fell asleep.
Wu Qiuqiu: “…”
This drinking habit…how familiar.
Spirit beasts usually follow their masters, so her and Xuan Qiu’s habit of falling asleep after getting drunk must have been inherited from her scum father.
She Xiuxiu and Bai Feng and the others looked dumbfounded.
Lie Biao was stunned. Seeing that the Ridge Lord had such a dazed and childish side, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Bai Feng and the other three exchanged glances and suddenly chuckled.
They suddenly felt they had gotten a hold of the Ridge Lord’s weakness. The Ridge Lord wasn’t as terrifying as they imagined.
……
The next day.
Xuan Qiu found Wu Qiuqiu.
“Young one, today I will take you to the Nurturing God Hall. There is a treasure there for you.”
“Then let’s go now.” Wu Qiuqiu rubbed her small hands, her small face showing an eager expression.
Bai Feng and the others also followed, preparing to go together.
As soon as they stepped forward, Beastkin guards and Divine Beasts stopped Bai Feng and the others.
“Wait, only the Saintess and the Ridge Lord can enter the Nurturing God Hall, you can’t go.”
Outsiders are not allowed to enter the Nurturing God Hall. Besides the Beastkin on duty in the Nurturing God Hall, only Xuan Qiu and the cubs training there can enter.
She Xiuxiu and Bai Feng and the others naturally couldn’t go in.
“Can’t go?” Bai Feng was stunned for a moment, but didn’t insist. He nodded and said, “Okay then, Qiuqiu, we’ll wait for you here.”
Even Lie Biao, who had the most violent temper, was unusually calm today.
Xuan Qiu looked at Bai Feng and the other three strangely, feeling that their gazes were odd today.
In the past, wouldn’t these four have tried every means to follow?
Why were they like different people today?
Xuan Qiu didn’t have time to think too much, and soon took Wu Qiuqiu away to the Nurturing God Hall.
Inside the Nurturing God Hall.
Because of the Saintess’s arrival, all the cubs’ training was stopped.
Although the cubs in the Nurturing God Hall have the opportunity to be taught personally by the Ridge Lord, it’s not every day. The Ridge Lord only comes back to guide them when he’s free. Most of the time, it’s the Beastkin he arranged who teach them here.
At this time, a group of cubs gathered together, their faces full of envy.
“The Saintess is really different. As soon as she arrives, the Ridge Lord personally brings her here, and even our training is stopped. Besides the Saintess, no cub in the Nurturing God Hall has this kind of treatment.”
“Nonsense, that’s the Saintess! Are you crazy, daring to compare yourself to the Saintess? The Saintess is the Snow Ridge’s lucky star!”
“That’s right, how can the Saintess be the same as us cubs? I heard that the Saintess is extremely cute. I’ll go and take a good look later. I haven’t seen what the new Saintess looks like yet!”
A group of cubs chattered away.
Cubs are naturally curious and yearn for things outside the Nurturing God Hall.
They have been locked up in the Nurturing God Hall for training for a long time. The training is arduous, and they rarely have time to rest, so they naturally want to make good use of it.
Cubs who come to the Nurturing God Hall cannot leave unless they have completed their training.
In a corner, a cub with a cold face suddenly spoke in a sharp voice.
“Humph! What Saintess, she just got in through the back door, what’s so great about her?”
“A Jing, just say you’re envious. The Ridge Lord said that the Nurturing God Hall was built for the Saintess, so of course the Saintess doesn’t need to be the same as us,” the other cubs retorted matter-of-factly after hearing this.
“Besides, the Saintess also participated in this year’s Nurturing God Hall selection. I heard that she was first in both rounds, and her strength is the strongest in this session, don’t you think?”
“Yes, I participated in the selection with the Saintess, and I can testify!” A cub who participated in the selection with Wu Qiuqiu spoke up to prove it.
A Jing gritted his teeth, looking unconvinced.
“So what, maybe the Ridge Lord deliberately let her win!”
He felt that this newcomer Saintess got in through connections, and he was particularly displeased.
They, these cubs, worked hard to get in and trained hard, but because of the Saintess’s arrival, their training had to stop.
A Jing felt it was unfair. Their time was precious too!
This Saintess didn’t work hard herself, yet she lowered their strength, it was so hateful!
“But the Ridge Lord didn’t know the Saintess’s identity at that time. The fake Saintess was still there at the time, and she made things difficult for the Saintess everywhere, preventing her from passing the selection…” a cub explained beside him.
This news was learned from the new batch of cubs.
When Wu Qiuqiu won first place twice, her performance shocked the Beastkin, and the whole Snow Ridge was abuzz.
A Jing choked, still angry, and said, “The last Saintess was a fake, who knows if this one is fake? I think there’s no such thing as a Saintess at all, it’s just a title the Ridge Lord made up for her.”
How could a four-year-old cub be so powerful.
It’s all bragging!
The cubs shook their heads, not wanting to argue with him.
“Hey, A Jing is the cub with the best talent in our Nurturing God Hall. I wonder who is more powerful, A Jing or the Saintess?” A cub suddenly asked curiously.
As soon as he finished speaking, a cub suddenly exclaimed joyfully, “The Ridge Lord is here, the Saintess is here!”
The cubs immediately rushed out.
As long as they didn’t disturb the Ridge Lord’s travels, the cubs were free to move around in the Nurturing God Hall.
Looking at the cubs’ backs, A Jing’s eyes flashed, he thought of something, and followed.
He wanted to prove his strength!
If the Saintess couldn’t even beat him, it must be a false reputation.
……
Wu Qiuqiu followed Xuan Qiu to the back of the Main Peak.
“Uncle Qiu, where is the Nurturing God Hall? I don’t see it,” Wu Qiuqiu curiously looked around. Except for the white snow and blue sky, there was nothing.
Xuan Qiu smiled, “Young one, look down.”
Wu Qiuqiu was stunned and looked down.
She saw an Ice Palace appearing in her sight. The Ice Palace stood against the cliff, and at first glance, it seemed to be floating in mid-air, exuding a mysterious aura.
There was no way to get to this Ice Palace.
“This is the Nurturing God Hall?”
No wonder it’s said that ordinary Beastkin can’t get into the Nurturing God Hall. It’s not just about not being able to pass the selection, this cliff is not something ordinary people can reach.
“Yes.” Xuan Qiu nodded, picked up Wu Qiuqiu with one hand, and leaped down.
