Quick Wear: Boss, she won again by doing nothing

Chapter 986 is here? Do you want to be food? (21)

As they spoke, Xingyu closely observed the subtle changes in Miao Yicheng's facial expressions.

Noticing that his expression had relaxed slightly, he continued, "Luo said I was exceptionally talented, so he carefully taught me magic and medicine. Now my abilities are in no way inferior to those of my fellow disciples in the Taoist temple."

Throughout, she maintained a calm and composed demeanor, as if what she said was true.

Upon seeing this, Miao Yicheng couldn't help but feel suspicious. Although his words seemed flawless at first glance, he had a vague feeling that something was amiss deep down.

Unable to suppress his doubts any longer, Miao Yicheng asked, "Then... why did the legendary divine beast Lord Luo choose you in particular?"

You must know that among the many Taoist priests in the temple, which one is not a person of great talent? All the previous national preceptors came from Yun Shen Temple, and countless people would do anything to send their children to Yun Shen Temple to study.

Ke Yun Shen Guan only accepts disciples who are intelligent and talented, and never accepts unqualified people as disciples.

He sent her there hoping to try his luck. He had planned to spend a large sum of money to hire a highly skilled Taoist priest to avert his children's misfortunes if all else failed, but to his surprise, she was actually chosen.

"All the senior disciples in the temple are already learning the knowledge taught in the temple, but I am still a disciple who knows nothing."

"Furthermore, it said that it had a connection with me. Not only that, it knew about my younger siblings, and the culprit who caused all the disasters was the current National Preceptor, the current abbot of the Taoist temple, Old Rui."

Miao Yicheng stared wide-eyed, his eyes filled with disbelief, and even his tone of voice was full of shock and uncertainty.

"Then...then does Lord Luo, the Divine Beast, believe that you can deal with the...the Imperial Preceptor, after only a few months of learning?!"

Her words were so bizarre and absurd that he found it hard to believe they were true! If they were all lies, what had happened to his daughter to make her so abnormal?

Miao Yicheng's slightly stuttering voice and trembling hands seemed to reflect his anxious and uneasy state of mind.

"Father, haven't you noticed that I've changed?"

Xingyu feigned profundity by not answering but instead asking a question, silently guiding Miao Yicheng to consider various possibilities.

Miao Yicheng hesitated, but of course he had noticed. She was his daughter, and he knew very well what she had become.

Although she wasn't as quiet and composed as she is now, she was still a well-behaved and sensible little girl. She used to tug at his sleeve and act coquettishly, asking him to buy her favorite trinkets and sweets.

Now she seems to have become distant from him and Huanhuan. Whether dealing with matters or responding to emergencies, she is always methodical and calm.

She usually prefers to stay quietly by herself, and this unusual maturity is not what one would expect from an eleven-year-old child.

"Father, time in dreams is different from reality. A day in a dream is only half an hour in reality," Xingyu said earnestly. "And Father, actually... I've been learning for several years!"

Looking at Xingyu, who was talking nonsense with a straight face, Xiaowei couldn't help but shake her head.

Little Star's ability to make up lies is getting better and better! She's clearly a super lazybones, always thinking about slacking off or dozing off, yet she can still portray herself as so diligent, studious, and positive.

Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder she's called Little Star!

Upon hearing this, Miao Yicheng was very surprised. Could it be that what she said was true? Yet, for a moment, he found it hard to believe.
