I'm only one year old what the heck Is a overturning system

"Don't kill me..."

"Shh!"

Chen Yi covered the mouths of the two "thieves" and shushed them.

After they got the hint and stopped shouting, he then pointed at the courtyard and pretended to intimidate them:

"If you wake the people inside, you will die, understand?"

"Mhm mhm."

The two maids nodded repeatedly, both looking terrified and covering their mouths.

"Come with me."

After speaking, Chen Yi led them to the kitchen in the small courtyard and placed a plate of steamed buns in front of them.

"Names?"

Seeing he didn't look like he was about to kill anyone, one of the girls, who seemed braver, glanced at the steamed buns and said while swallowing her saliva:

"Hua Youxiang, you can also call me by my nickname, Er Hua."

"Hua Yourong."

The shy girl hiding behind her hesitantly poked her head out and added, "Nick, nickname, San Hua."

Hua Youxiang, Hua Yourong, Er Hua San Hua?

Chen Yi looked at the two clad in their ditsy floral light clothes and cute with twin high buns, living up to their names indeed.

As for the nicknames, he just took it that the two girls were teasing.

"Your eldest sister wouldn't happen to be called Hua Yourui, would she?"

Hua Youxiang shook her head, with a Chuan Mansion accent impersonating someone from the Martial World, she said: "Our sister never changes her name nor her seat; she is the Hua Xianzi!"

"Hua Xianzi? Are you sure?"

"If you don't believe me, ask San Hua." Hua Youxiang tilted her little head, in a proud and coquettish manner that seemed averse to further explanation.

Seeing Chen Yi's gaze turn her way, Hua Yourong got so scared that she drew her head back in and murmured like a mosquito, "I, my sister Er Hua didn't say anything wrong."

Hua Xianzi...

Chen Yi repeated the name several times in his heart. It was not a name just anyone could claim.

One must be like a fairy to be called one.

After pondering for a few seconds, he pushed the plate of steamed buns he had at hand towards them.

"Take them."

Before his words even finished, Hua Youxiang snatched up the steamed buns like a robbery, joy spread across her face, and then she looked at him and grinned:

"Thank you, young hero, you're a good person, right San Mei?"

"Mhm mhm," Hua Yourong quickly poked her head out, glanced at Chen Yi, and hastily withdrew, "Good, good person."

"..."

Chen Yi thought to himself, this "good person card" sure came casually.

Thinking so, he waved his hand and said, "Judging by the looks of you, you must have also come to seek apprenticeship at the Grand Void Sect, hurry back."

"And stop stealing in the future."

Seeing him mention the Grand Void Sect, Hua Youxiang's little face showed a look as if to say 'Just as expected.'

However, she didn't say anything more, stuffed the steamed buns into Hua Yourong's arms, and bowed to Chen Yi.

"Today's kindness over a meal, the three Hua sisters will remember it."

"If the young hero ever needs anything in the future, we will definitely not refuse."

After saying that, she didn't wait for Chen Yi to respond, just pulled Hua Yourong around and walked away.

With a feigned hero's swag.

"Tha-thank you..."

Hearing this timid voice from the distance, Chen Yi couldn't help but feel speechless.

Not until the two girls disappeared into the night did he shake his head and go back to his room to rest.

If he ever really fell on hard times and needed help over a few steamed buns from those three little maids, he might as well die - how disgraceful!

And seeing him return to his room, Ning Xue who had been stealthily watching from next door put down her longsword.

Ancient Tao also revealed a smile, then continued to meditate and cultivate.

Any sect would like to have disciples with innate goodwill.

...

After walking a considerable distance away.

Hua Youxiang finally spoke without looking sideways, asking: "San Mei, take a look back, did he follow us?"

"Alright..."

Just as she was about to agree, Hua Yourong came to her senses and quickly shook her head.

"No no no, Er Jie, I, I don't dare."

"What are you good for? When it really matters, it all depends on your second sister here."

Speaking, Hua Youxiang suddenly turned around, then whirled back just as quickly.

"Is, is someone following us?" Hua Yourong asked while holding a bun, too afraid to raise her head.

Hua Youxiang was silent for a few seconds, then spat out one word, "No."

"That's, that's good."

"I didn't see clearly."

"..."

Just as Hua Yourong lifted her head, she quickly lowered it again, complaining coquettishly, "Second sister!"

"Let me take another look."

Hua Youxiang mustered her courage, looked back again, and quietly sighed with relief when she saw no one following them.

"Lift your head, no one is behind us."

As she moved her somewhat stiff neck, she lectured like an adult, "San Hua, if you're this timid, you'll easily be bullied by your husband's family in the future."

Hua Yourong looked back uneasily to make sure her sister wasn't tricking her, then continued holding her bun, mumbling about being scared to death.

After calming down, she suddenly exclaimed.

"Quick, let's go back and bring the buns to eldest sister."

"Yes, yes, yes, almost forgot the main task."

Hua Youxiang, no longer proud of herself, grabbed her and hurried towards the temporary gathering place not far from the inn.

"When I have mastered the skills, I must chop up the thief who stole our package into eight pieces."

"Just, just one piece," Yourong said, "Mother says when you deal with others, you should leave a line, so it's easier to meet again in the future."

"???"

"Are you sick?"

"He'll already be under the ground, and you still want to meet him? But it would be good if we do, huh, this old lady could hack at him one more time!"

"Second sister, don't say bad words, eldest sister doesn't like it."

"Alright, alright, I won't say them."

"I don't know what sins I committed in my past life to end up as sisters with you two..."

...

The next day.

As the first light spread, Chen Yi and the others were already neatly dressed and practicing in the courtyard, without waiting to be roused by the Ancient Tao or Ning Xue.

This was a special instruction from Mr. Ning upon leaving the Kyoto Prefecture.

Even if they were on the road, they could not neglect their Martial Arts training.

In her own words, the practice of Martial Arts lies in accumulation, and can't afford the slightest slack.

With similar talent, one who is diligent and hardworking versus one who is lazy and negligent will have a considerable difference in cultivation in the future.

However, when she said this, she glanced at Chen Yi and added, "Except for certain freaks of nature."

Therefore, during the time since leaving the Kyoto Prefecture, Chen Yi and the others took advantage of the stillness before the carriage set off to perform their morning exercises.

The gains were modest but sufficient to refine their skills in using fists, kicks, swords, and blades.

During this time, the Black Armor Guard consciously stationed themselves around to prevent others from peeping at their Martial Arts techniques.

Not long after, the sun rose, and after a simple breakfast, the Ancient Tao called for departure.

The carriages left the inn unhurriedly, following the increasingly steep cliffside, heading towards the Grand Void Mountain Gate.

At this time, other people around the inn were also waking up.

Packing up their luggage, they followed Chen Yi and others, riding carriages towards the Grand Void Sect's gate.

There were also many on foot, following behind the carriages like pilgrims.

Periodically, one might hear the bold proclamations of youth aspiring to find mentors.

Among the crowd moving along the mountain path, there were also several pleasant voices.

"Eldest sister, you walk so slowly, we won't make it to the Grand Void Mountain Gate even by nightfall," Hua Youxiang urged as she jogged.

Next to her, in a gentle voice tinged with a hint of weakness, came the reply, "There are still several days left for the examination, no hurry."

Hua Yourong nodded succinctly and agreed, "Second sister, eldest sister is right."

"That's right, you're both right, am I wrong then?"

"Er Hua, don't be crazy again. Look, you can't do something like sneaking out to steal last night again, got it?"

"This time you were lucky to meet a good-hearted person... did you remember the name of our benefactor?"

Hearing Fairy Hua's words, Hua Youxiang and Hua Yourong glanced at each other and lowered their heads guiltily.

Fairy Hua sighed upon seeing this.

"Next time we see him, remind me."

Her voice was soft and tender, like a lady from a prestigious family in the Jiangnan Prefecture, yet it carried an undertone of sorrowful sigh as she said:

"How can a few coarse words serve as thanks..."
