Chapter 301 Is this kid stupid?
"Has that man and his child ever come back?" Si Nansheng looked up at the village chief, who saw that Si Nansheng was just a child and a hint of contempt flashed in his eyes.
"No, they never came back after they left." The village chief shook his head. Si Nansheng looked at the village chief and then at the people following him.
They all looked somewhat uncomfortable, although they all lowered their heads and deliberately avoided eye contact.
Even the shortest of them, Si Nansheng, could see clearly that their unease was obvious, and there was definitely something wrong with the matter.
Si Nansheng tugged at Ye Yanqing's sleeve, and Ye Yanqing looked down at her.
"Senior Brother, the village chief means that fog is only possible at night. It's still early, let's go and rest for a while." Si Nansheng gestured to Ye Yanqing, who understood.
“Alright, village chief, could you please arrange accommodations for us first?” Ye Yanqing asked the village chief.
"No problem, no problem. Perfect timing! Some people have left the village, leaving many courtyards empty. I'll take you there right away," the village chief hurriedly replied, leading everyone to the empty courtyards.
Liu Xuewei and her group naturally lived separately from Si Nansheng and his group, and neither side wanted to have any contact with the other at this time.
"I'm so sorry, this place has been uninhabited for a long time and it's a bit dirty and messy. I'll have someone come and clean it up right away." The village chief looked somewhat embarrassed when he saw the mess in the yard.
"No need, village chief, we can take care of it ourselves." Hua Lianyi declined the village chief's offer.
"Well... alright then, I'll have someone prepare food for you in a bit." The village chief smiled and planned to go directly to find someone to cook for Si Nansheng and the others.
“No need to trouble yourself. We can fast and not eat, so the village chief doesn’t need to worry about us. We can handle things ourselves.”
Ye Yanqing refused the village chief's offer. They had other matters to discuss later, and with the village chief coming and going, it wasn't appropriate for them to say anything.
"Alright then, if you need anything, just come to me, you immortals." The village chief led the villagers away.
After watching them walk away, Si Nansheng couldn't help but stretch.
"Junior Sister, go rest over there. Let's tidy up this place first." Ye Yanqing patted Si Nansheng's head. Si Nansheng wanted to refuse, but since her senior brothers had already started, she didn't care anymore.
"Fifth Senior Brother, don't go and cause trouble." Si Nansheng pulled Mo Yu back from going to help.
"I... how did I cause trouble? Junior Sister, you've hurt my feelings." Mo Yu clutched his chest, looking pitifully at Si Nansheng.
"Aren't you just causing trouble?" Si Nansheng looked at him innocently.
Mo Yu felt as if a sword had pierced his chest.
"Hmph, I'll show you whether I'm causing trouble or not!" Mo Yu rushed over and started cleaning, while Ye Yanqing and the others watched helplessly.
Is this kid stupid?
They are monks; wouldn't it be easy for them to clean this place up?
Do I need to clean it bit by bit by hand?
"Young Master Qingfeng, your injuries haven't healed yet. Go to Junior Sister's side. We can handle things here." Ye Yanqing smiled at Nan Qingfeng, who turned to look at Si Nansheng, who was surveying her surroundings.
“Okay.” Nan Qingfeng walked up to Si Nansheng.
"Little sister, what are you looking at?" Nan Qingfeng looked down at Si Nansheng.
"I have something to do, you keep watch for me." Si Nansheng said to Nan Qingfeng in a low voice. She wasn't afraid of being discovered by Ye Yanqing and Hua Lianyi, but she was worried that Liu Xuewei and the others might suddenly come over.
Si Nansheng slowly closed her eyes and released her divine sense, which swept over everyone present and then over Liu Xuewei and the others next door.
Liu Xuewei turned her head in confusion, but found nothing.
"Junior Sister, what's wrong?" Shen Jingyuan walked up to Liu Xuewei, who was looking around.
"It's nothing, I just feel like someone is watching us. Second Senior Brother, do you think it could be Si Nansheng?" Liu Xuewei looked up at Shen Jingyuan with a delicate and weak expression.
"How could it be her? Even if she wanted to come back to us, she'd have to see if we wanted her to." Shen Jingyuan looked at the neighboring courtyard with disdain.
Su Heng didn't speak, he just looked at them indifferently. Even now, these two idiots still think Si Nansheng wants to come back.
Si Nansheng had already abandoned them long ago, when they abandoned her!
Si Nansheng didn't care what these people were thinking. Her divine sense continued to spread, and she saw the village chief and several other people in the village. They were whispering and plotting something, but their voices were too low for Si Nansheng to hear clearly.
However, she didn't care. Now that they knew there was something wrong with the village, they were sure they could find some clues.
Si Nansheng's divine sense enveloped the entire village, examining it carefully, but she found nothing wrong. However, many people in the village had that strange blue aura about them.
Undeterred, Si Nansheng continued to expand his divine sense, and finally discovered something unusual in a very secluded little cave by the sea.
The unusual aura was somewhat similar to the strange energy emanating from the villagers. Could there be something wrong here?
"Junior Sister, Junior Sister!" Mo Yu's voice came, and Si Nansheng withdrew her divine sense and looked up in confusion.
Not only Mo Yu, but also Ye Yanqing and the others gathered around.
"Junior Sister, are you alright?" Bai Ye asked Si Nansheng anxiously.
"I...I'm fine. What's wrong?" Si Nansheng scratched his head.
"Junior Sister Si, are you really alright? You have a nosebleed." Hua Lianyi took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away the blood from Si Nansheng's nose.
Si Nansheng looked at the bloodstains on the handkerchief, raised her hand and touched the area below her nose. Sure enough, there were bloodstains on her hand.
Si Nansheng felt like vomiting blood: He had only released his divine sense, so why was he getting a nosebleed?
"Your spiritual sense was released beyond your capacity, that's why you're like this. Just rest for a while and you'll be fine," Ye Xiuran explained.
"Um, but I don't feel like anything's wrong?" Si Nansheng scratched his head.
Ye Xiuran didn't explain. The little girl didn't realize that anything was wrong with her. She released so much divine sense. If it weren't for him, the little girl might have already fainted.
"Junior Sister, what exactly happened?" Mo Lie asked after seeing that Si Nansheng's nosebleed had stopped.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little tired because I haven't rested much these past two days while traveling." Si Nansheng smiled at him.
Ye Yanqing and the others all knew that things were definitely not like that.
"Since you're tired, let's rest for a while. Everyone should rest too. We still need to investigate the village tonight," Ye Yanqing said, looking at everyone.
"Alright, then we'll go and rest first." The female cultivators stayed together, and the male cultivators stayed together, except for Si Nansheng and her senior brothers who stayed in the same room.
"Junior Sister, tell me, what exactly happened?" In the room, Ye Yanqing lifted Si Nansheng onto a stool and looked at her intently.
"Don't worry, senior brother, I'm fine. I just used my divine sense to check on the village, and I used too much of it, which caused my nose to bleed."
Si Nansheng waved her hands to Ye Yanqing and the others to indicate that she was fine, and Ye Yanqing put her hands down.
