Chapter 236 - 234: Little Junior Sister

"Senior Brother!"

As Lu Heng and his two companions entered Yan Ya’s courtyard, Qingyue, like a baby swallow returning to its nest, leapt directly into Lu Heng’s embrace.

Off the mountain, Qingyue had shed her little Taoist robe and donned a white princess dress.

Her long hair was shiny black, as deep as the pitch-black night.

Her fair and delicate face was like fine porcelain, seemingly as fragile as if it could break with a blow.

"Little Junior Sister, it’s been a long time!"

Lu Heng ruffled Qingyue’s hair and said with a smile.

"Senior Brother, you’ve been off the mountain for so long, why haven’t you called me?"

Qingyue pouted, her cheeks puffed with a mix of indignation and cuteness.

"Qingyue, Qingyue, your Second Senior Brother is here too!"

Yang Qingshu said discontentedly.

"You are... Second Senior Brother?"

Qingyue raised her head slightly, after glancing at Yang Qingshu, she frowned in confusion.

In her memory, the Second Senior Brother still retained the dashing and handsome look from back then.

Right now, the plump and greasy uncle in front of her didn’t match up at all!

"Of course, I’m your Second Senior Brother!"

"I still remember when you wet the bed and tried hard to blame it on Qingfeng..."

Yang Qingshu chuckled.

"You... you’re talking nonsense!"

"I... I didn’t do it!"

At his words, Qingyue’s face flushed red, and she hurriedly defended herself.

"Hurry and say ’Hello, Second Senior Brother!’"

"Otherwise, I’ve got plenty of funny stories stored in my head just waiting to be recalled."

Yang Qingshu said smugly.

"Se... Second Senior Brother, hello!"

Qingyue bit her lip and was forced to greet him.

"Qingfeng!"

"Second Senior Brother!"

At this moment, Qingming and Qingling also emerged from the house and greeted Lu Heng and his companions.

"Let me introduce you, this is Song Qing, my girlfriend."

Yang Qingshu pulled Song Qing to his side and introduced her with a smile.

"Don’t be silly!"

Song Qing shyly wriggled out of his embrace.

Yang Qingshu laughed heartily and then introduced, "These two are also my junior brothers from Dragon Tiger Mountain, Qingling and Qingming respectively."

"And this is my favorite little junior sister, Qingyue!"

Finally, he poked Qingyue’s fair little cheek with his finger.

"Hello!"

Song Qing greeted them one by one.

"Mr. Yang, you three take a good rest; I’ll be leaving for now."

Assistant Zou spoke up at this moment.

"Brother Zou, thank you for your help today!"

"I’ll treat you to a drink someday, and we can continue to chat about those secrets of the Yan Family."

Yang Qingshu waved farewell to Assistant Zou, whose last words made the latter jog away quickly, disappearing from everyone’s sight.

Regarding Yang Qingshu’s mischievous behavior, everyone shook their heads in unison.

This Second Senior Brother loved to stir up fun when he was at Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Even after being off the mountain for so many years, he hasn’t changed at all!

"Let’s go inside to talk!"

Yang Qingshu waved his hand, inviting everyone inside.

Yan Ya’s courtyard still retained the charm of ancient times.

Inside, there were almost no modern amenities to be seen.

"Our Chairman Yan’s taste is the complete opposite of her father’s!"

Yang Qingshu couldn’t help but sigh.

After everyone found a place to sit, he finally spoke, "Qingyue, I heard that Yan Ya wanted you to acknowledge your ancestors at her father’s birthday banquet, but you refused?"

"Yes!"

Qingyue nodded softly, as if it were only natural: "I just wanted to see what she looks like, not planning to stay here."

"I still need to go back to take care of Master!"

"No wonder you’re Master’s favorite little disciple!"

"What you said almost moved me to tears."

Yang Qingshu gave Qingyue a thumbs-up, praising her with a smile.

Song Ya and the others joined in the laughter too.

"Qingyue, what do you think about your mom?"

Yang Qingshu asked again.

"Not good!"

Qingyue shook her head and said, "Ice-cold, just like a stranger."

After hearing this, Yang Qingshu exchanged a glance with Lu Heng.

As expected, this woman Yan Ya never wanted to recognize any daughter.

She only wants to use Qingyue as a tool, to retain her own power.

"Qingming, Qingling, have you encountered anything unusual these days?"

This time, Yang Qingshu no longer questioned Qingyue but asked Qingming and Qingling instead.

"Nothing major."

Qingling shook his head.

"No major issues, but minor ones keep coming!"

Qingming said with a cold laugh.

Compared to the carefree Qingling, Qingming was more sensitive and intelligent.

"That’s normal!"

Yang Qingshu laughed coldly too: "Some people don’t wish for Little Junior Sister to appear."

Upon hearing this, Lu Heng also chimed in, "Second Senior Brother and I met Yan Ya earlier."

"She said she received news that someone is planning to kidnap Qingyue..."

"What? Kidnap?"

Upon hearing this, Qingming and Qingling were momentarily stunned.

"Why would anyone want to kidnap me?"

Qingyue blinked her big innocent eyes in confusion.

"What else could it be for? Of course, for power and profit!"

Yang Qingshu scoffed and continued, "Little Junior Sister, you don’t know what position your mom holds now and how much power and resources she controls."

"She wants you to acknowledge your ancestry to continue her current power and status."

"But some people don’t want her to do that and find her bothersome."

"Therefore, they plan to target you, using you to threaten your mom..."

He didn’t hide anything, explaining everything he knew.

"What should we do then?"

"Maybe we should return to the mountain early?"

Qingling worriedly suggested.

"We’re already in the situation; I’m afraid they won’t let us leave now."

Qingming shook his head.

"Exactly!"

"From the moment you arrived in the clouds, you entered their sights already."

"Even if you want to withdraw now, it’s impossible."

Yang Qingshu nodded in agreement.

"Don’t worry, Taoist Zhenyuan should be arriving these days."

"As long as the old man is around, no one can take Qingyue away."

At this time, Lu Heng said with a smile.

"Taoist Zhenyuan?"

Hearing this, Qingling and Qingming could not help but show joy.

With Taoist Zhenyuan’s abilities, peace was certainly assured!

Yang Qingshu also nodded slightly.

Although he had never met the Taoist Zhenyuan mentioned by his junior brother, he had heard of the name.

Several months ago, Taoist Zhenyuan’s name had already spread through the upper circles of Dragon Country.

But it had been pronounced long ago that no one was allowed to disturb Taoist Zhenyuan’s cultivation.

Otherwise, those wealthy ones would have long been unable to resist going to pay respects to Taoist Zhenyuan.

"Although the old Taoist can come, we shouldn’t let our guard down, understood?"

Yang Qingshu thought for a moment, still giving a precautionary warning.

"Understood!"

They all nodded.

Lu Heng pinched his junior sister’s little cheek.

He was eagerly anticipating what kind of spectacle would unfold at this Yan Family birthday banquet.
