Why are you trying to steal her destiny? She's the little ancestor of the Xuanmen sect!

Chapter 90 Life and death are preordained; defying fate cannot change destiny.

The observation room was quickly cleaned up.

The ghost baby was taken to take a bath by Xiao Jiu Jiu and is now sitting innocently in Xiao Jiu Jiu's arms.

It's much smaller than before.

It looks only slightly larger than a newborn kitten.

Qin Yuyang breathed a sigh of relief and sat down next to Xiao Jiu Jiu: "Xiao Jiu, are you alright? You're holding this..."

"It's okay, it's fine if I hold it, it won't hurt me, right?" Xiao Jiujiu poked the ghost baby in her arms.

The ghost baby nodded.

Very well-behaved.

Qinghuai, who was standing next to him, was stunned.

"Disciple, I'm here! Where is that wicked beast?!"

Just then, an old man's voice rang out.

Xiao Jiu Jiu and her group all looked outside.

Then an old man with white hair, dressed in a sage-like manner, walked in, holding a white, long-haired whisk in his hand.

Yu Zhinian stood up, and Xiao Jiujiu and Qin Yuyang exchanged a glance and also stood up to greet him.

The old man walked up to Yu Zhinian: "Zhinian, do you need my help? My good-for-nothing apprentice is useless?"

Qinghuai: ?

"Master, I admit that my skills are not good enough, but the main problem is that ghost baby..." Qinghuai wanted to defend himself, but he stopped talking.

He can't afford to offend the old man.

"Where is that wicked beast?" Qingfeng looked around and soon spotted the ghost baby in Xiao Jiujiu's arms.

His eyes widened as he walked up to Xiao Jiu Jiu: "Is this the seemingly harmless ghost baby?"

As he spoke, his expression changed when he looked at Qinghuai.

Qinghuai immediately shook his head and said, "Master, it wasn't like this just now. It was very fierce just now, I..."

Just one glance from him and Qinghuai was immediately at a loss for words, trying to defend himself.

The more the apprentice tried to explain, the more cowardly Qingfeng saw him as.

"You're scared of this? What have you learned?" Qingfeng picked up his whisk and smashed it on Qinghuai's head.

Qinghuai, being chased, yelled, "Master, let me explain!"

"quibble?"

Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, then chased even more enthusiastically.

"No, no, I'm not making excuses, I want you to explain!" Qinghuai ran off with a mournful face.

Even with Yu Zhinian watching him from here, he couldn't stop.

"Ouch!"

"You dare to get distracted while you're being beaten?" Qingfeng's eyes widened.

Qinghuai immediately snapped out of his reverie and focused on running away: "Master, I was really wrong, please stop hitting me."

The old man was ruthless; each hit made him scream in pain.

"I'm really getting old, I'm no longer useful."

After running for half a day, Qingfeng calmed down, panting heavily.

Qinghuai could only say, "Master, you should rest for a while. I'll go get you a glass of water."

"This boy!"

Qingfeng shook his head; Qinghuai had already left the room.

Xiao Jiu Jiu and Qin Yu Yang haven't spoken since just now.

They watched the interaction between the master and apprentice with curiosity.

Qingfeng glanced at the ghost baby in Xiao Jiujiu's arms, straightened his clothes, and said, "It's time to get down to business."

"Please have a seat, senior." Yu Zhinian's polite demeanor won Qingfeng's favor.

He couldn't help but say, "Ah Huai still needs to learn more from Captain Yu. He's too impatient and can't handle big things."

"You're overthinking it, senior," Yu Zhinian replied calmly.

At this moment, Qingfeng came to his senses and took a good look at Xiao Jiujiu and the others.

"Who are these two?"

Qingfeng hesitated, waiting for Yu Zhinian to introduce him.

Yu Zhinian said, "This is President Qin of the Qin Group, and that is his daughter, Liu Juanbai."

"Liu what?"

Qingfeng reacted strongly, staring blankly at Xiao Jiujiu.

Yu Zhinian raised an eyebrow: "Does Senior know Xiao Jiu?"

"I don't know him," Little Jiu Jiu replied in her childish voice. "I've never seen this old man before."

Qin Yuyang frowned, unable to get a word in edgewise.

"Did you subdue this little devil?" Qingfeng stood up and looked down at the ghost infant.

Sensing something was wrong, the ghost baby burrowed into Xiao Jiu Jiu's arms.

"You scared it." Xiao Jiu Jiu pulled a pillow over to shield it before meeting Qing Feng's gaze without fear.

Qingfeng asked again, "Did you subdue this brat?"

“It’s me, so what?” Xiao Jiujiu looked at Qingfeng defiantly.

Qingfeng then carefully examined Xiao Jiujiu.

Despite his advanced age, his eyes were not cloudy at all.

Those eyes were so clear, it seemed they could see right through people's hearts.

"It should be you..."

The child's features don't resemble that person's, but his speech, behavior, and the photos Yu Zhinian took of him before he came here are similar.

The talisman in the photo.

They all look like they were drawn by that person.

This child's intelligence is so much like that person's!

"You said your name is Liu Juanbai, right?"

Qingfeng asked again, somewhat unsure.

Little Nine-Nine: ...

Is she someone who speaks unclearly?

Why do you have to ask so many times?

Seeing that he didn't seem like someone easy to deal with, Qin Yuyang quickly said to Xiao Jiujiu beside him, "The Taoist priest is asking you a question."

"My name is Liu Juanbai."

As she spoke, Xiao Jiujiu gave Qingfeng a smile.

A very standard smile.

"Selaginella willow...Liu Huai..."

Qingfeng murmured to himself, already understanding.

This child is indeed the highly talented granddaughter that Liu Huai mentioned!

She inherited Liu Huai's methods and was able to subdue the little devil with ease.

But he heard about that child...

Qingfeng did some calculations with his fingers in front of Xiaojiujiu.

His gaze quickly fell on Qin Yuyang.

"No wonder, no wonder..."

He muttered a couple of sentences to himself.

Xiao Jiujiu looked at Yu Zhinian, then at Qin Yuyang beside her, puzzled.

After a long while, Qingfeng seemed to snap out of his reverie and asked in a trembling voice, "Juanbai, how is your grandfather?"

His eyes held a mixture of anticipation and trepidation.

The last remaining smile on Xiao Jiu Jiu's face also disappeared.

She tightened her grip on the ghost baby's hand, her voice becoming somber: "Grandpa... he's passed away..."

"really……"

Upon hearing this news, Qingfeng swayed.

His expression seemed relieved.

Yu Zhinian, who was standing to the side, helped him up: "Senior, please sit down."

After sitting down, Qingfeng looked dejected, as if all his strength had been drained away.

When Qinghuai came in, he placed the water cup in front of Qingfeng with a bewildered look on his face: "Master, have some tea."

"Um……"

Qingfeng thought for a long time before waving his hand and saying, "Forget it, life and death are predestined, and it's not something we ordinary mortals can interfere with."

Even that person didn't succeed, did he?

He turned his gaze to Xiao Jiu Jiu, his expression becoming affectionate: "Child, what has Liu Huai taught you?"

“A little bit of everything.”

Xiao Jiu Jiu has been learning talismans from her grandfather, but she has only scratched the surface of other skills such as array formations, weapon crafting, divination, and feng shui.

Scratching his head, Xiao Jiujiu said, "I learned to draw talismans."

Of all the skills, the one she mastered best was drawing talismans.

"Okay, did you draw the talisman to deal with the ghost baby?" Qingfeng continued to ask.

Xiao Jiu Jiu nodded: "Yes."

"Ah."

Qingfeng nodded and took something out of his pocket...
