Chapter 276 Purely Accidental
“Previously, Liu Ruxuan exposed the Fengyue Sect’s cheating, which saved our sect a lot of face. I heard that she is the head of the Medicine Master Association, so I would like to invite her over to sit down and express my gratitude.” Yin Hongxue’s reason was quite reasonable.
Shan Yuebei clasped his hands in a fist salute to Yin Hongxue and said, "Disciple obeys." After saying that, he turned and walked out.
A sly glint flashed in Shan Yuebei's eyes; he wondered what Yin Hongxue was up to this time.
They arrived at Liu Ruxuan's house, but only He Qiuman was inside. They didn't know where the other two had gone, so Shan Yuebei had no choice but to wait inside.
About an hour later, Liu Ruxuan and Ye Liuli returned.
Upon meeting Liu Ruxuan, Shan Yuebei immediately conveyed Yin Hongxue's message, and Liu Ruxuan did not hesitate.
Ye Liuli originally wanted to go too, but Shan Yuebei stopped her, saying that Yin Hongxue had only invited Liu Ruxuan.
Liu Ruxuan comforted Ye Liuli, saying that nothing would happen, but Ye Liuli still watched the two leave with unease.
Throughout the journey, Shan Yuebei remained silent, and Liu Ruxuan was also very quiet. She knew that Yin Hongxue's purpose was definitely not as simple as expressing gratitude.
Just as they were about to reach the main hall where Yin Hongxue was, Shan Yuebei suddenly whispered to Liu Ruxuan, "Be careful."
Liu Ruxuan paused for a moment after hearing this, then smiled and said, "Thank you."
After saying that, Liu Ruxuan walked straight into the hall.
"Ruxuan is here." Yin Hongxue greeted her politely as soon as Liu Ruxuan entered the door.
Liu Ruxuan was also a skilled actress. She first bowed to Yin Hongxue and said, "This disciple greets the Third Elder."
"No need for formalities, get up quickly." Yin Hongxue said as she came to Liu Ruxuan's side and helped her up.
"Ugh—why isn't Ruxuan back yet!" Ye Liuli kept walking back and forth, which annoyed He Qiuman to no end.
"What's your rush? She's only been gone a little while, she probably hasn't arrived yet," He Qiuman complained.
"She's my good friend, of course I'm worried." Ye Liuli's words were undoubtedly an accusation that He Qiuman was being unfair.
He Qiuman wasn't stupid; she naturally understood: "What do you mean?"
"It's nothing special," Ye Liuli said, shrugging.
"Are you saying that Liu Ruxuan and I aren't good friends?" He Qiuman stood up and asked.
Ye Liuli chuckled a few times and then left.
"Ruxuan, I just heard that you are the head of the Pharmacist Association. So, how did you meet Ziyan?" Yin Hongxue chatted with Liu Ruxuan for a few minutes before finally getting to the point.
"I don't know him. Is the Third Elder very familiar with him?" Liu Ruxuan answered honestly.
Hearing Yin Hongxue call Ziyan so affectionately, Liu Ruxuan felt that there might be something different about their relationship.
“You’ve taken over his pharmacist association, how could you not recognize him?” Yin Hongxue said with a smile.
"I really don't know him. I don't know how old or tall he is. It was purely accidental that the pharmacist took over his position." Liu Ruxuan didn't think it was a big deal, so she just said it casually.
Yin Hongxue felt a pang of discomfort upon hearing this. What did she mean by "purely accidental"? Just how incredibly lucky was this girl to be able to claim that taking over the Pharmacist Association was purely accidental...
No matter how much turmoil ran through her heart, Yin Hongxue's face remained unchanged: "So what level of pharmacist are you now?"
Liu Ruxuan gave a forced, embarrassed smile: "There's no level involved."
Liu Ruxuan wore Dugu Juechen's jade pendant, concealing her cultivation level. Outsiders could only see that her cultivation strength was at the intermediate level of the fourth-tier expert.
"Sit here for a bit, I'll be out for a while." Yin Hongxue finally gave up on trying to outwit Liu Ruxuan; it was too exhausting, and Liu Ruxuan simply didn't understand.
