"elder brother?"

She cautiously probed.

Almost at the same time, a low, hoarse, and cold male voice came from the sound-gathering bowl:

"Have you found out who stole my spiritual plant?"

As soon as the two voices came out, not only Yu Xi was stunned, but the people opposite also fell silent.

It was Yu Xi who spoke first:

"I'm sorry, I think I got the wrong person."

As she was about to cut off the demonic energy that was being injected into the Sound Gathering Bowl, the person on the other side suddenly spoke:

"who are you?"

Hearing this, Yu Xi subconsciously became a little alert. She didn't know the other party's background, and it would be unwise to expose herself without permission.

But unexpectedly, she didn't answer, and the other party suddenly guessed:

"Yu Xi?"

……ah?

No, she didn’t say anything, so how did the other party guess it?

The other party did not intend to answer her doubts, and just continued:

"You stole my spiritual herbs? No one had ever touched my things before you came."

He spoke slowly, neither hurried nor slow, but even through the sound-gathering bowl, Yu Xi still felt a tangible chill when he heard his words, and the demonic energy around him seemed to become sharper at that moment.

Yu Xi subconsciously reacted defensively. She touched her neck and shook her head. Realizing that the other party could not see her movements, she hurriedly said:

"No, I didn't steal! I was with my brother the whole time and I didn't go anywhere."

She had been falsely accused of stealing so many times that she couldn't count them on her hands, and subconsciously explaining herself had become her instinct.

"elder brother?"

The other party repeated the name and murmured, "Zhongxian?"

Yu Xi covered her mouth.

How could this person be so amazing? He guessed it based on just one sentence from her?

When Yu Xi was surprised, the other party asked again, but this time the tone was obviously much gentler, as if the previous coldness and aloofness had never existed:

"Yes, with your ability, you should not be able to get close to my herb garden... Is there something you want to do with the sound collecting bowl?"

Judging from his tone, he doesn't sound like he has any grudge against Zhong Xian.

Yu Xi thought carefully for a few seconds, and then asked, "Can I know who you are first?"

If she just let the other party guess her information, she would be too passive.

The man on the other side seemed to smile: "I heard that you are young, but you are quite vigilant. I grow spiritual herbs, you can just call me Su. You should be in the library now, right? Zhong Xian is not with you?"

How did you guess this?

Yu Xi stared at the Sound Gathering Bowl and carefully observed its surroundings, but did not find anything that could monitor her.

She didn't respond, and the man named "Su" didn't care. This time he kindly added:

"Few demons use the Sound Gathering Bowl. If you want to contact Zhong Xian, you can't use the Sound Gathering Bowl. If you have any needs, you'd better speak up now. You are the disciple of the Demon Lord, and I will help you to the best of my ability."

Su's voice became more and more kind, and his originally cold tone gradually became warmer, sounding like a spring breeze to his ears.

Yu Xi looked down at her still dirty clothes and puffed up her cheeks in annoyance.

If she couldn't contact Zhong Xian, she would have to move out in this dirty state.

Only Luo Chunxi and her disciples could enter the library. If she made the library dirty on her first visit, it would definitely make people angry.

Thinking of this, she finally tried to believe Su: "Is it really possible? Will you really help me? You won't lie to me and say you will help me, then go and tell someone about me and let me be punished, right?"

Su was silent.

Yu Xi didn't know what he was thinking and could only wait for his answer anxiously.

Fortunately, Su didn't remain silent for too long and quickly responded: "No, I swear."

Yu Xi's drooping ears finally stood up, and he said with energy: "Thank you! Can you give me some talismans with cleaning skills? I'm very dirty now..."

The world of immortal cultivation has a strict hierarchy, and only the inner disciples of the elders are qualified to learn the art of cleaning. Ordinary disciples can only clean up their own houses.

She was Mu Xiaoran's apprentice and was originally qualified to study, but because she was half-demon, no one had ever taught her.

"Ok."

Before she finished her explanation, Su responded. The next second, a silver light flashed on the surface of the Sound Gathering Bowl, and several talismans appeared on it.

"Is there anything else you need?" Su asked again in a good-tempered manner.

"No more, thank you!"

Yu Xi thanked him quickly. With the cleaning talisman, the dirt around her quickly disappeared, and her sticky clothes quickly dried without a trace of stain.

"Su, you are such a good person!" Yu Xi said happily and gratefully.

Su must have liked this way of praising. He laughed out loud and said in a more cheerful tone, "If you need anything in the future, you can use the Sound Converging Bowl to find me. I'm always bored when I'm alone, but——"

He stretched out his tone a little, with a hint of disgust in his voice: "You can't let Zhong Xian know about me. You have to keep our communication secret from the outside world."

Yu Xi wondered, "Why can't I let my brother know you?"

"Because I am not familiar with him, I don't like guys with evil spirits, they will pollute my spiritual herbs... Well, I suddenly have something to do here, we will talk next time."

Su seemed to be busy with something. After he finished speaking, he quickly cut off the connection between the sound-gathering bowls.

Yu Xi blinked blankly, and when he put the Sound Gathering Bowl into the storage ring, there were still several big question marks on his head.

Su is not familiar with his brother?

Then it was only the first time she spoke to Su? Why was Su willing to talk to her?

The demons are really weird...

On the other side of the Sound Gathering Bowl, Su Xianyun was lying on the couch, staring at the Sound Gathering Bowl whose demonic energy had been cut off.

He propped up his face in profile, his eyes charming and graceful like a flower reflected in water, his face so beautiful that it was hard to tell whether he was male or female, his long silver hair softly spread on the bed, his inner clothes were slightly messy because of his outer shirt, revealing a large area of ​​snow-white skin, which would seem to leave an ambiguous red mark if rubbed lightly.

In front of him, there were several humanoid puppets kneeling, whose souls had long been gone.

"Have you found out who stole my spiritual plant?"

His grayish-white pupils seemed to be focused, but also seemed to be looking at nothingness. His voice was calm, without any ripples.

"Master, the other party didn't leave any traces. We..."

Before the puppets could finish their words, their eyes suddenly widened. With the muffled sound of flesh and blood bursting, their bodies instantly tore into pieces and turned into rotten meat on the ground in an instant.

Soon, a new puppet pushed the door open and picked up the rotten meat on the ground as usual.

Su Xianyun didn't even look at the puppet from beginning to end. He seemed to be immersed in his own world. Suddenly he smiled, as if he thought of something interesting.

"She said I was a good person."

"You are so sensible."
