Elder Su had even become skilled at saying "I'm not familiar."
Mo Hua expressed understanding and nodded, saying,
"Don't worry, Elder Su, I understand."
Elder Su sighed helplessly, feeling as if he had no way to defend himself.
Fortunately, it wasn't long before a group of young female cultivators fluttered in like a flock of swallows.
Elder Su breathed a sigh of relief.
It was good to have young girls around.
With young girls present, Mo Hua wouldn't keep staring at him.
Elder Su then asked Mo Hua with a smile, "What do you think?"
Mo Hua began to size up the group of female cultivators.
Indeed, as per Elder Su's instructions, they were all young, their makeup faint, with no pretense or coquettish gestures, standing in a row prim and proper.
As Mo Hua sized them up, the group of young girls was also taking in Mo Hua and his companions.
They were used to seeing Elder Su, nothing out of the ordinary there.
What surprised them were the three little cultivators with Mo Hua.
Their eyes shimmered as they looked at Mo Hua and the others.
Mo Hua's features were picturesque, Bai Zisheng had sharp brows and starry eyes, and Bai Zixi possessed stunningly beautiful phoenix eyebrows.
The female cultivators' gaze towards Mo Hua was filled with affection; towards Bai Zisheng, it held admiration;
but when they looked at Bai Zixi, their faces would blush, and they even lowered their eyes, not daring to look directly, only casting furtive, rippling glances at her.
This baffled Mo Hua.
Mo Hua also stole a glance at Bai Zixi.
Bai Zixi sensed it and turned to look at Mo Hua, asking with confusion,
"What's wrong?"
Mo Hua frowned and muttered,
"Something's not right..."
Despite wearing men's clothes and possessing an androgynous allure, one could still tell she was a woman from her eyebrows and eyes.
Why were these female cultivators staring at their junior sister so intently?
And even blushing at that.
Mo Hua didn't understand.
Bai Zixi saw Mo Hua frowning, thinking he felt unwell, so she moved closer. Side by side, Bai Zixi reached out her delicate hand and touched Mo Hua's forehead. After a moment, she said with slight concern,
"Your forehead is a bit hot."
Upon looking down, she asked in confusion, "Why is your face also red?"
Mo Hua's fair cheeks were flushed.
"It's... a bit stuffy," Mo Hua replied evasively.
Bai Zixi glanced around at the lush surroundings, thinking Mo Hua was overwhelmed by the scent of rouge, and said,
"We shouldn't come to such places next time."
"Mhm," Mo Hua nodded softly in response.
The sight of Mo Hua's blushing face was witnessed by Elder Su.
Elder Su was pleased to nod his head.
That was more like it.
That was the way a young boy should look.
Mo Hua, this little gentleman, was usually too shrewd, his speech watertight, his eyes lively and profound, making him inscrutable.
Being stared at by him, even Elder Su felt a bit guilty.
Now this shy and blushing appearance was much more comfortable to look at.
Then again, Elder Su recalled that he, too, had been flustered and even redder than Mo Hua when he first came here.
As Elder Su reminisced about the past and felt nostalgic, he remembered something and asked,
"Young Master, didn't you want to ask about something?"
Mo Hua then remembered, stealthily took a sip of tea to calm his nerves, and began to speak,
"Ladies, I'm trying to inquire about someone."
The female cultivators looked at each other.
