Golden Elixir Granny, truly a crafty old immortal, had a plan as soon as she put her mind to it.

She flashed a kind smile.

"Little girl, since you don't believe that boy has any designs on you, do you dare to make a bet with me?"

Unexpectedly, Lu Beixue replied earnestly, "I don't like gambling, and I certainly won't bet on him with you."

"......"

Golden Elixir Granny's wrinkles twitched slightly.

This little girl was beyond saving.

Who knows what kind of spell that boy cast on Lu Beixue.

But the more it was like this, the more Golden Elixir Granny wanted Lu Beixue to distance herself from Li Qinghai.

If Lu Beixue got entangled in emotions and her strength improved slowly, when would she be able to help her?

Golden Elixir Granny had to compromise.

"How about this, we won't bet. But if there's a chance, I'd like to test him! Is that okay?"

Lu Beixue frowned, saying nothing.

Golden Elixir Granny immediately employed a bluffing strategy.

"Aren't you confident in that boy's character? Or do you think he's also hypocritical and can't withstand a test?"

Lu Beixue continued to frown.

Golden Elixir Granny, adept at reading hearts, suddenly changed her tone.

"That boy's strength is quite ordinary. If he can pass my test, I'll grant him a great fortune!"

As she spoke, Golden Elixir Granny added another sentence.

"Besides, even if you don't agree, I can act on my own."

"Fine! You can test him! But you can't harm him!"

Lu Beixue was very resistant to testing Li Qinghai.

Because in her view, it was a sign of distrust in Li Qinghai.

But Golden Elixir Granny was right, even if she didn't agree, the Granny could act on her own.

Discussing it with her now was already giving her a lot of respect.

If she didn't agree, who knows what Golden Elixir Granny might do in anger to harm Li Qinghai.

Moreover, agreeing now could help Li Qinghai gain an opportunity from Golden Elixir Granny, which was the best outcome she could strive for him.

Golden Elixir Granny raised her staff and drew a talisman in the air.

As she drew, she laughed and said.

"Don't worry, with that boy's meager strength, I disdain to act."

With that, the talisman in the air was completed.

"Go!"

With a tap of the staff, the illusory talisman flew out.

Lu Beixue was still a bit worried, "What kind of talisman is this? What's it for?"

"A warning talisman, no harm. Place it in front of the Green Bamboo Residence, and as soon as that boy leaves, it will sense it. Then, we can secretly follow him and see what he does."

Hearing there was no harm, Lu Beixue was relieved.

Golden Elixir Granny closed her eyes, sensing and controlling the direction of the warning talisman.

At this moment, it seemed the warning talisman became Golden Elixir Granny's eyes, able to see all the scenery along the way.

The warning talisman moved quickly, and before long, it arrived at the Green Bamboo Residence.

Then it attached to the door, merging into it without leaving a trace.

After doing all this, Golden Elixir Granny smiled slightly, confident in her plan.

In Golden Elixir Granny's view, every cultivator has a dark side.

She didn't believe Li Qinghai was a man of noble character without flaws.

As long as she secretly followed Li Qinghai, she was sure to see his hypocrisy.

By then, she would be the final winner.

Not only would she not have to give Li Qinghai any fortune, but she could also make Lu Beixue see the truth, a perfect two-birds-one-stone strategy!

Confident and in high spirits, Golden Elixir Granny eagerly awaited Li Qinghai to leave soon!

At this moment, Li Qinghai was leisurely reading a book.

He naturally didn't know that a warning talisman had been placed at his door.

If he knew, not only was there a warning talisman at his door, but another was buried underground, he would surely be furious.

Are all you cultivators in the immortal world just a bunch of perverted stalkers?!

Fortunately, Li Qinghai, deeply following Liu Daoyuan's advice, didn't leave home all day, just stayed in reading.

He didn't give Liu Yaoyao and Golden Elixir Granny, these two perverted stalkers, any chance.

By nightfall.

Li Qinghai put the book back into his storage bag and lay down to sleep.

But after lying for a while, he tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Whenever he closed his eyes, his mind was filled with images of Lu Beixue.

Lu Beixue spitting blood while shielding him.

Lu Beixue smiling sweetly at him.

Lu Beixue throwing herself into his arms!

Ahhh!

Li Qinghai couldn't take it, opened his eyes, and stared at the ceiling of the small wooden house.

"Lu Beixue!"

"You wicked woman, disturbing my Dao heart!"

"Ah! I'm so mad!"

Li Qinghai grumbled, angrily getting up from bed.

He took out a book from his storage bag and read it seriously.

Only when reading could he stop overthinking.

"Sigh, if only I had a quantum mechanics textbook right now."

Li Qinghai muttered.

After all, it was the ultimate sleep-inducing tool!

Staying up late into the night, the drowsy Li Qinghai finally fell asleep.

The next day.

Li Qinghai slept in late.

But no one cared, so he could sleep as he pleased.

After washing up, he continued reading the Beast Compendium.

This book was quite interesting to Li Qinghai.

Various beasts, like watching Jurassic dinosaurs, truly opened Li Qinghai's eyes.

At noon.

Wang Dafu's voice came from outside.

Li Qinghai went out to meet him.

"Junior Brother Li, why didn't you come to Morning Cultivation Mountain to train today? Did you just wake up?"

Li Qinghai replied earnestly, "I recently realized the importance of knowledge, so I've been studying at home. I probably won't go to Morning Cultivation Mountain to train anymore."

Wang Dafu was taken aback, "Junior Brother Li, we cultivators don't train by reading books, you're not aiming for scholarly honors."

"Senior Brother Wang, you don't understand the joy of reading!"

Seeing Li Qinghai's obsessed look, Wang Dafu decided to intervene.

"Junior Brother Li, Lu Beixue came to train at Morning Cultivation Mountain today, she's already at the fourth level of Qi Refining, you should work hard too."

Hearing about Lu Beixue, the woman who kept him awake, Li Qinghai was infuriated.

"So what about Lu Beixue, my books have beauties of their own!"

"......"

This...

Even Lu Beixue couldn't save Junior Brother Li.

Junior Brother Li seemed beyond saving.

"Alright, then Junior Brother, continue reading, I won't disturb you."

Wang Dafu shook his head and turned to leave.

Their conversation was overheard clearly by Liu Yaoyao, who was perched on a nearby tree.

She scratched her head, puzzled.

Reading?

Isn't that the most boring thing ever?
