Chapter 2708
Qingyun clicked her tongue twice, showing her deep disgust for the current families in Qicai City.
"Actually, I’m still curious about Qicai City. How about we go inside and take a look?" the Immortal Empress suggested.
"If you want to go, let’s go. Since we’re here, we have nothing else to do. It’s just a casual stroll anyway," the Immortal Emperor said. He didn’t object. Besides, it was his wife’s wish, so he naturally supported her.
"Hmm, what are the Huang family members doing? I see many beast pets around them," Qingyun said, looking puzzled.
Zhu Yanyi smiled faintly. "They probably think these beast pets aren’t high-level enough."
"Why do the Huang family need high-level beast pets? Picking high-level ones isn’t necessarily useful," Qingyun frowned slightly. "And it looks like they have a specific purpose. Also, it doesn’t seem to be for the Huang family disciples."
"Oh? Tell us more," the Fire Emperor asked, curious.
Qingyun explained, "The Huang family has a habit. If they are looking for beast pets for their own family members, the person needing the pet will always be present during the search. This is true for other families too. The best way is to let the person tame the pet themselves during the hunt. But look at this group. They don’t seem to want to tame the pets. So, they aren’t looking for themselves. If not for themselves, then for someone else."
Qingyun paused briefly. "It seems something important is happening in one of the noble families in Qicai City. The Huang family is likely looking for beast pets as gifts. It could also be a request from the royal family. But without investigating, we can’t know for sure."
Yan Aohan added some cat-ear noodles to the mushroom soup. Once cooked, she scooped them out and gave them to Zhu Yanyi. Then she said, "You forgot one thing."
"Huh?" Qingyun looked at Yan Aohan, confused.
Yan Aohan spoke calmly, "You went missing. The engagement between the Qing family and the Hong family is still valid. Your cousin, Qing Xia, is going to marry Hong Xiao."
"Just that?" Qingyun raised an eyebrow. "That is a big deal. This explains why the Huang family is looking for beast pets. They are mainly for gifts."
Zhu Yanyi laughed softly. "I haven’t seen a wedding in many years, especially a wedding in this plane. How about we go join the fun?"
Yan Aohan looked at Zhu Yanyi. "If you want to join the fun, that’s fine."
They were not ordinary people. If they wanted to join the fun, no one could stop them. Of course, they didn’t have to reveal themselves. This matter was ultimately Qingyun’s concern.
"Qingyun, settle the karma," Zhu Yanyi said.
Qingyun raised an eyebrow. "Master, I really don’t care if they get married or not."
Then she smiled. "But it’s right to go. I should thank Hong Xiao for not marrying me."
The Empress spoke directly, "That’s right, Qingyun. You are right. Besides, who are you now? You are the disciple of the Divine Realm’s Medical God. The Hong family is not worthy of you. However, they shouldn’t be the ones to break the engagement. You should be the one to break it."
Qingyun thought for a moment. It made sense. She nodded. "Auntie, you are right. It is indeed so."
Qingyun was no longer the Qingyun of her past life. In her past life, she only inherited the legacy of a Spirit Venerable. Although she had some ability, it was somewhat hollow. Now it was different. She was the disciple of the Divine Realm’s Medical God. She had the Divine Realm as her backing. The mortal people in this small Baixiang Plane were truly beneath her notice.
"Let’s go to Qicai City after we finish eating," the Black Emperor said with a smile.
Everyone agreed with the Black Emperor’s decision. After the meal, they slightly concealed their aura. Qingyun, thanks to a mask given by the Immortal Empress, disguised herself as someone else. Few people knew Qing she. After all, Qing she had been missing. Even if she hadn’t been missing, Qing she stayed at home every day, so few people knew her. In this situation, they walked in boldly. No one noticed who they were.
Entering Qicai City, they found the whole city filled with joy. It was clear that there was real happiness here.
"Master, let me take you to my home," Qingyun said.
"Good," Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly. She knew that Qingyun’s family had long left the Qing family and lived outside. Yet, because of this marriage, they had almost all died.
Because of this, Zhu Yanyi had no good feelings toward the Qing family.
"It’s good to see where you live," Zhu Yanyi said.
Qingyun led the way, turning into a small alley. The last house in the alley was Qingyun’s home.
Qingyun opened the door and went in. The flowers and trees in the courtyard looked a bit withered. It was clear that because they were away, the house lacked life.
Seeing this, Zhu Yanyi frowned slightly. She flicked her hand, and a wisp of green energy appeared. Soon, the plants in the courtyard revived.
"Master, this is my home. Originally, my brother, father, mother, and I all lived here," Qingyun said, leading them inside. Because no one had been there, the house was full of dust.
The Black Emperor snapped his fingers. Instantly, the place became clean and fresh.
Yan Aohan looked at Zhu Yanyi. "Wife, why not temporarily place the Suiyuan Pharmacy here?"
Zhu Yanyi raised an eyebrow. This place couldn’t hold many people. After thinking for a moment, she waved her hand. The Suiyuan Pharmacy appeared. Instantly, the place was arranged like the Suiyuan Pharmacy.
Qingyun was slightly stunned, but only for a moment.
"Alright, everyone has their own room. If you want to rest, go to your respective rooms," Zhu Yanyi smiled.
"Master, the Suiyuan Pharmacy is so big. Will it take up other people’s space?" Qingyun looked confused, like someone who couldn’t see the big picture.
Zhu Yanyi smiled lightly. "You can go outside and look."
Qingyun looked at Zhu Yanyi suspiciously, then went outside. She found that the situation in the plane hadn’t changed at all. She pushed the door open and entered, and it became the Suiyuan Pharmacy. This divine power was something she had never seen before.
Zhu Yanyi smiled. "The Suiyuan Pharmacy relies on fate. No matter where it is, only those with fate can see everything in the Suiyuan Pharmacy. Those without fate cannot see it."
Qingyun said "Oh," indicating she understood.
"Master, I’ll go get the property deed for this place. Later, I’ll say I sold it to you. That way, no one will know we are living here," Qingyun said. Since she was disguised, no one knew that Qingyun had returned to Qicai City.
