Chen Mobai also seemed a bit at a loss.

He wanted to explain that they were just ordinary friends, but wouldn’t this kind of thing usually be denied by the girl? However, Qing Nu just lowered her head, her slender, snow-white fingers constantly intertwining, and remained silent.

Fortunately, at this moment, the entire theater darkened.

A long and crisp shout at the start drew Wang Xinying’s attention immediately to the stage.

The two stars of the Jade Phoenix Theater Troupe came on stage.

The first one to come out was Jiang Yuyuan, who played the young male lead. He was indeed handsome and elegant. What was even more remarkable was that he was bare-chested, showing off his masculine physique with eight-pack abs. He possessed both beauty and fitness, truly deserving the title of the number one young man in the cultivation world.

But Chen Mobai was a man, who just watched, listened, and tasted with an appreciation for the play.

Meng Huang, who came out next, was the one who caught his eye.

She was dressed in a lavish costume, draped in a robe as light as gauze. She was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with clear high features, a Mei Hua petal dotting her smooth forehead, extraordinarily beautiful. Her small and exquisite melon seed face was painted with two lunar arcs in red, contrasting with the white lead makeup on her face, showing a holy demeanor.

Every household would know the story of “Stepping on the Moon”. The goddess Meng Huang played eventually ascended to the moon in sorrow. Even though Chen Mobai had long known it was a tragedy, he still felt as if he was experiencing it himself, a kind of inexplicable sadness in his heart after watching it.

“After immersing myself in the appreciation, my divine consciousness, which was about to fade due to the expiration of the Dream-shattering Song, was indeed awakened once again.”

However, Chen Mobai came to listen to the play, not only to see Meng Huang, the number one maiden in the cultivation world, but also for his own cultivation.

The Dream-shattering Song from Bian Yiqing had helped him open the door to Divine Consciousness Cultivation, but this wasn’t something he had achieved himself, and by now, its effect had completely faded. Even with the Nourishing Thought Forge God Technique, he gradually felt that the speed at which his seed of contemplation would break through the soil was slowing down.

If one song was not enough, naturally he would need another.

Fortunately, he still had tickets. Even though Bian Yiqing had stopped performing, the two actors from the Jade Phoenix Theater Troupe, considering their reputation and the great responsibility bestowed upon them by the cultivation community, should have some effect similar to the Dream-shattering Song in their performances. So, Chen Mobai came to listen. And indeed, it was a full harvest.

When Jiang Yuyuan and Meng Huang left the stage, he stood up from the heart and applauded loudly.

Not only him, but Wang Xinying and Qing Nu beside him, and even the thousands of cultivators inside the theater, all stood up, expressing their gratitude to the pair who had performed a perfect song. The cheers were like raging waves, never-ending.

It was only after the two actors from the Jade Phoenix Theatre Troupe left the stage for more than ten minutes and confirmed that they would not return, that the cultivators in the theater reluctantly stood up and started to leave.’ “Let’s go, I’m going to take you home first.”

Chen Mobai didn’t like to queue and be crowded with people, so he waited until most people had left before he stood up and said to Wang Xinying.

“No need, bro, my dad will pick me up, you can take sister-in-law home.”

Wang Xinying promptly flicked through countless TV dramas she’d seen in her mind, and skillfully assisted in this situation.

“Just call me sister.”

At this moment, Qing Nu finally responded, and somewhat shyly asked Wang Xinying to change her address.

“Goodbye, sister, see you next time.”

As Wang Xinying spoke, she blinked at Chen Mobai.

But despite her reassurances, he called his uncle, Wang Jianyuan, to confirm that he was already in the parking lot waiting. Chen Mobai let Qing Nu wait at the door again, and personally took Wang Xinying over to hand her to her family.

Remember, don’t say anything unnecessary to your parents.”

“I understand, bro, after all, relationships at your age usually end by the time you start college. But this sister seems to be a good person, so don’t be too terrible to her.”

Before getting in the car, Chen Mobai instructed Wang Xinying over and over again. She beat her chest and made a guarantee, but her words made Chen Mobai knock on her forehead.

“What are you talking about, am I that kind of person?”

It was not until Chen Mobai greeted uncle Wang Jianyuan and watched them leave, that he himself turned back.

“I’m sorry to have kept you waiting.”

Qing Nu was in the same place where he had left her, having not moved at all.

“No, not at all. Your sister is quite adorable.”

“That’s not true. She’s quite a handful…”

With that, the conversation between the two suddenly became awkward.

Having finished discussing their collaboration and the performance, they were at a loss for topics to talk about.

“I’ll walk you home.”

No need, I can take the bus back on my own.”

Qing Nu took out a student card from her bag. Chen Mobai took a glance at it and noticed that it was from the number one high school in Red Sandstone City.

That’s the public school with the highest entrance scores. Does she have exceptional Spiritual Root Talent?

Right, I don’t even know what level of Qi Cultivation she is?

“Let’s walk together. Although this city is safe, you never know if there’s a rogue cultivator on the loose. It’s dark out, we can keep each other company.” Chen Mobai’s words gave Qing Nu pause, and she found herself looking at him a second time longer.

Actually, she was just looking for a patron for her alchemy cultivation, but it seemed to have turned into something like a date now.

No way, no way!

Stay composed!

“Okay, let’s go.”

Even though she protested in her mind, her words didn’t follow suit.

The two walked side by side to the bus station. After waiting for ten minutes a bus finally arrived. Although Chen Mobai wanted to take a taxi, Qing Nu shook her head, saying it was wasteful.

Once they got on the bus, they sat in the last row, still in awkward silence.

“This is my stop. I’ll get off here.”

After five stops, Qing Nu was the first to stand.

“Okay, see you tomorrow.”

“Mmm, you can come over after dinner. My teacher won’t be in the shop then.” Qing Nu hesitated for a moment, and whispered these words as she moved past Chen Mobai.

Two stops later, it was Chen Mobai’s turn to get off.

As soon as he got off the bus, a young man dressed in a blue and white robe asked him for directions.

Excuse me, how can I get to Evergreen Pharmacy?”

“Turn left at the intersection over there and go straight till the end. But the pharmacy is closed in the evening.”

Qing Nu might be there on normal days, but definitely not today. According to her, her teacher, Gu Changfeng, always finished his work at five o’clock sharp and never stayed a minute longer.

“Oh, I see, thank you.”

The young man in the blue and white robe thanked Chen Mobai politely upon hearing his answer.

“If you need to buy some medicine, you can wait for this bus and take it two stops down. You’ll see another pharmacy once you get off.”

“Thank you.”

The boy in the blue and white robe still thanked him with a gentle smile, then stood waiting at the bus stop, seemingly willing to take Chen Mobai’s advice and go to the other pharmacy.

“This person seems quite powerful.”

Chen Mobai’s senses were still heightened from the effects of the Stepping Moon Tune. He vaguely sensed that this boy who asked for directions was like a boundless ocean, inscrutable..
