"Waiter, please order all the good wine and vegetables in your store, and a bottle of spiritual juice!" In the lobby on the first floor, Xu Tao waved to the waiter and ordered a large table of dishes.
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll let the kitchen cook it for you!" The waiter left with a bright smile on his face.
Uncle Shui and Xiao Ruyi looked at this girl who didn't regard themselves as an outsider. They only had one doubt in their hearts, who is this?
"Mr. Pei, I wonder who this is?" Is he a friend of Mr. Pei? Xiao Ruyi thought to herself.
"My name is Xu Tao, and I am his friend." Xu Tao answered first before Pei Xiyun could speak.
"It turns out to be fellow Taoist Xu, my name is Xiao Ruyi, this is Uncle Shui, and we are also friends of Mr. Pei." Mr. Pei refused to accept them as his servants, and said that they were friends and wondered whether it would displease Mr. Pei.
Xiao Ruyi glanced at Pei Xiyun cautiously and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he didn't show any dissatisfaction.
Soon the food was on the table. Xu Tao was the first to pick up the chopsticks and eat the food. It was a joy to eat.
Xiao Ruyi always felt that she had overlooked something, ah, that's right!
"Mr. Pei, where is your civet? Doesn't it eat with us?" That civet is Mr. Pei's favorite pet, and he loves it as much as anything.
Not only do you have your own room, but you also have to serve food on the table.
Anyway, Xiao Ruyi has never seen someone who dotes on his spiritual pet so much.
I don’t know what happened today, but I didn’t let that civet cat come out to eat together?!
"You're talking about that civet cat. When I came yesterday, because I had no place to live, I took some time to live in that civet cat's room. The civet cat naturally returned to the spirit pet bag.
The civet cat probably won't come out during this period of time." Xu Tao said while eating vegetables.
"Is what Fellow Daoist Xu said true?!" Xiao Ruyi looked at Pei Xiyun dubiously.
No, that civet cat is Mr. Pei’s favorite pet, and now because of this female cultivator named Xu Tao, she is willing to let her spirit pet live in the spirit pet bag!
Didn’t Mr. Pei say that his civet cat doesn’t like the spirit pet bag?
Not to mention Xiao Ruyi, even Uncle Shui looked surprised.
"It's true." Pei Xiyun nodded calmly.
Xiao Ruyi suddenly stopped talking.
It seems that the relationship between these two people is unusual. Even Mr. Pei’s favorite civet cat has to make way for her.
Could this be Mr. Pei’s favorite person?
Xiao Ruyi quietly looked at Xu Tao and saw that she was eating so deliciously. She grabbed a spirit pig elbow and started chewing it until her mouth was full of oil, without caring about her own image.
There was no way. When Xu Tao was making cerebellar axes before, she was too small and had to ask Pei Xiyun to help her cut into small pieces before eating.
Now that I can finally chew it myself, isn't it a bit overwhelming?
Sure enough, rather than being fed, she still prefers to nibble on it by herself. It feels better to eat like this!
Looking at Xu Tao who was eating a meal without any regard for appearance, the corners of Xiao Ruyi's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly. Could it be that Mr. Pei likes this kind of informal woman!
Or maybe he likes...
Xiao Ruyi began to look at Xu Tao's upper body.
This figure seems to be a bit too good. Although her face is not stunning, even her female cultivator blushes when she looks at her figure!
Could Mr. Pei just be attracted to her figure?
No...she can't think of Mr. Pei like this. How could Mr. Pei be such a man!
Xiao Ruyi shook her head and got rid of all the messy thoughts in her mind.
After eating, the four of them came to Xiao Ruyi's room.
"You said before that this stone is in your Xiao family. Can you tell us about your family?" The four of them were sitting around the table. Pei Xiyun looked at Xiao Ruyi and asked.
Xu Tao was also looking at Xiao Ruyi, waiting for her to speak.
"Mr. Pei, were you looking for that stone because of fellow Taoist Xu?" Xiao Ruyi did not answer, but asked with complicated eyes.
"Yes." Pei Xiyun nodded.
This white tiger essence and blood is indeed what Xu Tao is looking for, there is nothing to hide.
"That's it." Xiao Ruyi nodded, with a hint of envy in his voice.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, you should tell us about the stone first. We are really in a hurry." Xu Tao has no time to worry about Xiao Ruyi's girlish heart. She just wants to find the blood essence of the white tiger quickly.
The power of the demon pill won't last long, and she will turn back into the little white tiger before long. She must find the white tiger essence and blood before she can change back.
"Since Mr. Pei and Xu Taoyou want to know, Ruyi will tell you everything..."
From Xiao Ruyi's next words, Xu Tao knew that the Xiao family was just a middle-level immortal cultivating family in Xuanyang Realm.
The Xiao family is located in Sunrise City and is one of the three major immortal cultivating families in Sunrise City.
Xiao Ruyi's mother, Long Yulian, was the eldest daughter of the Long family, a cultivating immortal family. Long Yulian was very talented, and because of her outstanding beauty, she had numerous suitors around her.
Xiao Ruyi's biological father Xiao Guang was the most sincere person who pursued Long Yulian at the beginning. Long Yulian also secretly expressed her love for him, and the two naturally became a Taoist couple.
After the two got married, they gave birth to an only daughter, Xiao Ruyi.
Xiao Ruyi grew up under the care of her parents and lived a very happy life.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Long Yulian's family was severely damaged in a battle with other families. The strongest ancestor in the family died, and the future of the entire Long family was in doubt.
Long Yulian asked the Xiao family to help, but the Xiao family did not want to wade into this muddy water.
Later, Long Yulian returned to the Long family alone, leaving her daughter in the Xiao family.
Long Yulian had been away for three years, and when she came back she had been seriously injured and was dead.
Long Yulian died after arranging everything, but her death did not cause any splash in the Xiao family.
As if the death of the mistress of the house was just a trivial matter, even the father who risked everything for his mother was only hurt for a few days and treated it as nothing happened.
Less than a month after Long Yulian's death, Xiao Guang remarried his cousin Lu Yuanxia as his first wife.
Not only did Lu Yuanxia marry in, she also brought back a brother who was two years older than Xiao Ruyi and a sister who was one year younger than her.
Only then did Xiao Ruyi realize that her good father had already been hooking up with Lu Yuanxia behind her mother's back.
No wonder he was not sad at all after his mother died and found a new love within a month!
Xiao Ruyi was worthless for her mother, but she was only seven years old at the time and there was nothing she could do.
Xiao Ruyi's life in the Xiao family became increasingly difficult. Fortunately, Lu Yuanxia only wanted to torture her and did not want her life.
Until three months ago, her stepsister Xiao Jixiang came to her to show off that she was about to marry into the city lord's palace and become the city lord's daughter-in-law.
A few days later, Uncle Shui heard the news and found out that the city lord's youngest son had his spiritual veins destroyed and his appearance ruined. He would be forced to sit in a wheelchair and be a cripple for the rest of his life!
