The Cangyun Realm was suddenly filled with ominous风云.
Su Qinian looked up at the sky and couldn’t help but exclaim in shock: “So terrifying, truly so terrifying! That powerful person meddled with heavenly secrets yesterday, and now less than six hours later, they’re meddling again. They really don’t fear divine punishment!”
At the Bluecloud Sect, Mu Baishuang glanced at the sudden change in the celestial phenomena and felt uneasy.
Near the Central Secret Realm, someone was increasingly frequently meddling with heavenly secrets. It shouldn’t affect the plans of her Celestial Demon Sect… right?
Inside a cave near Danzong.
Leng Chanxin looked up, and a golden vertical pupil grew on his forehead.
This pupil emitted half an inch of light to meet the heavenly glow.
Suddenly, his whole body trembled, his face changed drastically, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
“How is it him again?!”
He quickly suppressed his energy while clutching his burning chest; the vertical pupil on his forehead seemed as if scorched by fire, turning pitch black.
He had originally wanted to use a Divine Ability to catch a glimpse of what that person was searching for.
But who would have thought this heavenly secret-meddler would be the mysterious Ancestor from the Sword Pavilion.
Now, he could only hope that the other party hadn’t discovered him…
…
[Heavenly Secrets deduction complete!]
[Both the storage pouch and sachet materials are taken from a bellyband!]
“Ah~” Chen Huaian understood now. No wonder he didn’t remember—originally, it was…
“What thing comes from a bellyband?!”
He stared dumbfounded at the storage pouch and sachet in his hand.
It makes sense, it should make sense, indeed it does!
He clearly hadn’t bought such items for Li Qingran before, because the electronic girlfriend store hadn’t updated its inventory. Yesterday, when a red one appeared, he immediately purchased it. But the fabric used for the storage pouch and sachet was clearly light blue.
Which means…
“Not right, can’t jump to conclusions just yet!”
Chen Huaian narrowed his eyes, realizing this matter wasn’t simple.
First, it was uncertain whether the material was new or old.
He immediately performed a series of inspections—looked, smelled, asked questions, and palpated—but still ended up somewhat confused.
What color was Li Qingran’s item originally?
Although the bathroom privilege had been unlocked due to their current goodwill level, every time he looked, steam always clouded the view, making it unclear.
Moreover, even if it were clear, who would focus on the clothes being changed?
That would be absurd, wouldn’t it?
However, there was one thing he remembered very clearly.
There was a crooked lotus leaf and frog on that piece of clothing.
If he could see those two things, the case would be solved.
Li Qingran had already gotten up and was meditating facing the rising sun, not yet entering a cultivation state.
Chen Huaian seized the opportunity and pressed the sound transmission talisman:
“Qingran, your master has received the storage pouch and sachet!”
The voice transmitted through the void made the young woman facing the sunrise brighten her eyes.
Could anything be more blissful than hearing her master’s voice upon waking?
She looked up at the void, catching a glimpse of the sachet and storage pouch she had hurriedly made overnight disappearing.
She bowed lightly towards the void, her rosy cheeks concealed well under the golden morning light.
“Master~ Your disciple greets you~”
“Hmm.”
Seeing Li Qingran’s lively demeanor, Chen Huaian’s heart raced wildly, but he had to maintain the image of a cold and aloof master.
“The storage pouch and sachet are well-made, you’ve passed.”
Upon hearing this, Li Qingran’s heart leapt with joy. Her eyes sparkled as she sweetly smiled, “If Master doesn’t find me foolish, then it’s fine. My abilities are low, so the storage space is small. Once I reach the Golden Core Stage, I’ll make some larger ones for Master.”
“Hmm, thoughtful.”
“By the way, the materials for the storage pouch and sachet are good. Which fabric did you use?”
“Ahh, this, this…”
Li Qingran hastily lowered her head, her long lashes fluttering, her gaze sidestepped, her heart racing like a startled deer, her mind blank.
It’s over, how did Master directly ask?
How should I respond?
If I lie to Master, he would definitely see through it, right…
More importantly, if I say something random, Master would surely get angry too!
What to do, what to do…
Li Qingran felt ants crawling all over her body.
Fortunately, the voice from the void continued:
“I like the materials of the sachet and storage pouch. You should have some left, right? Use them all to make tea bags and pillowcases for me. The specifics you can decide yourself!”
“Tea… tea bags? Pillow… pillowcases??”
“Master, I…”
Li Qingran wanted to say more.
The gaze had already disappeared.
Master must have gone to deal with other matters, giving her no chance to explain.
“Aaaaah! What to do, what to do…”
In that moment, Li Qingran felt as if the sky was falling down.
She thought the sachet and storage pouch were already pushing limits, and now Master was asking for tea bags and pillows?
Was that appropriate?
Is that even possible?
Li Qingran opened a box beside her pillow.
There was still plenty of fabric inside, neatly cut.
Enough to make a large pillowcase, and small ones for a full set of tea bags.
But thinking about Master using these tea bags to brew tea…
Li Qingran bit her lower lip and picked up a piece of cloth, raising her eyes to see herself in the mirror. Her peachy pink face, rosy cheeks, and shimmering eyes were more intoxicating than when her senior sister was drunk.
Her heart quivered, and she immediately avoided looking into the mirror.
“Since Master asked, it shows that Master doesn’t know.”
Li Qingran steadied herself, her previously blank mind gradually becoming active: “If Master knew, he wouldn’t have asked… Since that’s the case, these are just pieces of fabric. As long as I don’t say, Master will never know in his lifetime. Why be so overly concerned?”
“Since Master likes them, as his personal disciple, I should naturally do something for Master!”
“Li Qingran, stop daydreaming unnecessarily! You deserve a spanking!”
Li Qingran gently slapped her burning cheeks, gradually calming down.
She placed the box containing the fabric on the table, took out needles, threads, spirit stones, and sat upright to start making tea bags. When she picked up a piece of fabric with frogs and lotus leaves, she hesitated slightly but still included it, though she sewed it inside the tea bag.
“As long as I don’t say…”
“Master will never know in his lifetime!”
Thinking about this, everything became peaceful and justified for her.
…
Chen Huaian put on his clothes and prepared to go out.
Judging from Li Qingran’s reaction just now, the authenticity of the fabric’s origin was almost certain.
Assuming Li Qingran was a real person, continuing to press would be somewhat impolite.
He had to prepare for two scenarios and couldn’t completely treat Li Qingran as an NPC created solely for him.
Therefore, he didn’t continue pressing but instead adopted the strategy of attacking Wei to rescue Zhao.
As for why tea bags and pillowcases,
No other reason, just fate.
He simply liked drinking tea recently.
His pillowcase needed replacement.
Any problem?
No problem!
Chen Huaian got into a taxi, holding half a fried dough stick bought downstairs in his mouth: “Driver, take me to Panjiayuan Vegetable Market.”
“Alright, fasten your seatbelt!”
