Chapter 9: Chapter 9 Auntie, Don't Get Ideas About My Dad
```
"It's really a Truth Talisman; can your father even craft talismans?"
Long Yufei was somewhat surprised.
Generally speaking, in order to become a Pill Saint, one must devote all their time to Alchemy and couldn't possibly spend too much time studying the art of Talisman crafting.
"Of course, father knows a lot."
Chu Chen nodded his little head, his two buns and the flesh on his face both shaking with his movements.
"Daddy is the most amazing person in the world."
Chu Xin also nodded in agreement, her big, round, jet-black eyes filled with admiration.
Long Yufei couldn't help but chuckle, understanding that in a child's heart, their father is always the most impressive.
The Truth Talisman wasn't ranked very high among talismans; she was merely surprised, that's all.
"That's great, with this Truth Talisman, there's no need to use the Divine Search Technique."
The old woman's aged face also revealed a smile.
After all, they were all her Heavenly Sword Pavilion's disciples, with good talent and strength, she naturally wouldn't want to turn these disciples into idiots unless absolutely necessary.
"Young friend, would you be willing to sell these Truth Talismans to me?"
She looked at Chu Chen, trying to make her smile appear more benevolent.
Chu Chen handed over the Truth Talisman to the old woman, saying nonchalantly, "Granny can take them if she needs them, I have plenty more."
"Thank you, young friend."
The old woman smiled, took the Truth Talisman, and turned to the female guards, saying, "Each of you take one and stick it on."
"Yes, Pavilion Master."
The female guards also breathed a sigh of relief, and stepped forward one by one to receive a Truth Talisman and stuck it on themselves.
Only one of them took the Truth Talisman and with shifty eyes, noticing that no one was paying attention, leapt, attempting to escape from the Flying Boat.
Bang!
However, a Protective Shield suddenly lit up above the Flying Boat, and the female guard hit the shield and was bounced back.
The old woman's face darkened as she said, "I wouldn't have expected it to be you."
"Hmph!"
The female guard snorted coldly, her True Qi roiling inside her, intending to self-destruct.
The old woman's expression changed. The female guard possessed the strength of a Martial Emperor; if she self-destructed on this Flying Boat, then the Flying Boat wouldn't survive.
Just at this moment, Chu Chen took out two talismans and threw them, quickly sticking them onto the female guard.
Her originally swollen body visibly shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, returning to normal.
At the same time, chains emerged from the other talisman, quickly binding the female guard tightly.
"A Locking Element Talisman? A Sealing Talisman?"
The old woman exclaimed, surprised; these two talismans were much higher level than the Truth Talisman and could lock the True Qi inside a cultivator's body, preventing them from moving it.
"You little beast."
The traitor glared at Chu Chen, her beautiful face full of spite.
Now that she was restrained and her True Qi sealed, she couldn't move or self-destruct, only leaving her at the mercy of others.
"Smack!"
A small figure suddenly appeared in front of the female guard, a slap landing on her face, sending her spinning several times in place on the deck of the Flying Boat.
Splutter!
When she stopped, blood spat out, mixed with several teeth.
"Bad woman, don't you dare scold my brother."
Chu Xin stood with her little hands on her hips, glaring furiously at the traitor. If she hadn't been reluctant to kill, that one slap would have taken off the traitor's head.
"Wuu wuu!"
```
The traitor wanted to say something, but her swollen cheeks and the loss of her teeth made it impossible for her to speak clearly.
"What incredible speed,"
The old crone was completely shocked, as she hadn't even noticed how the little girl had appeared in front of the traitor. And from beginning to end, she hadn't sensed any fluctuations in True Qi, which clearly indicated that it was purely the speed of her physical body.
She had been cultivating for nearly a thousand years, and had never seen anyone whose physical body could reach such a terrifying degree of speed.
To support such terrifying speed with the physical body alone, its strength must also have reached an extremely fearsome Realm, and thus, its power would be just as formidable.
Could it be that the Pet Beasts of the Blood Wolf were really killed by these two three-year-old toddlers?
The thought surfaced in the old crone's mind as she recalled the words of Long Yufei.
"Would it be alright for the two young friends to hand her over to me?"
If it were any other situation, she would have directly captured the traitor and dealt with her. However, facing the mysterious siblings, Chu Xin and Chu Chen, she didn't act rashly.
These two toddlers could only be befriended, not offended.
"Okay,"
Chu Xin and Chu Chen nodded their heads, though they were powerful, they had never killed anyone before and truly didn't know how to deal with it.
"Thank you,"
The old crone bowed her fists, walked over to the traitor, and said coldly, "If it weren't for the young friend's Truth Talisman, I might have lost many disciples of the Heavenly Sword Pavilion because of you."
"Wuu wuu wuu!"
The traitor had a fierce look in her eyes and made whining sounds from her mouth, but unfortunately, no one could understand what she was trying to convey.
The old crone placed her hand on the traitor's head and used the Divine Search Technique, and instantly streams of memories flowed into her mind.
At first, the traitor struggled violently, but eventually, her eyes became dull and lifeless.
After a moment, the old crone withdrew her hand, lifted the traitor up, and threw her off the Flying Boat, then with a wave of her hand, the air was filled with Sword Qi that tore the traitor to pieces.
Fortunately, Long Yufei was quick to cover Chu Xin and Chu Chen's eyes, preventing them from witnessing the brutal scene.
After the noise had died down, Chu Xin pried Long Yufei's fingers apart, peeking through a gap and, seeing nothing frightening, quickly pushed Long Yufei's hand away, pouting, "I'm very brave, you know."
"Me too,"
Chu Chen also pushed away Long Yufei's hand, with an expression that said he was very impressive.
"Yes, yes, you're the bravest,"
Long Yufei was amused by their adorable behavior, and it even alleviated some of her heartache from the betrayal.
"Of course!"
Both Chu Xin and Chu Chen held their little heads high like proud little roosters.
Long Yufei smiled gently, feeling more and more that these two little ones were her lucky stars.
If she hadn't encountered Chu Xin and Chu Chen on this trip, she probably would have met with more misfortune than good fortune.
She couldn't imagine what sort of being could raise two such little monsters.
Suddenly, she remembered Chu Chen's large pot and barbecue grill and couldn't help but ask, "Ai Kaorou, the barbecue grill and such... they were also refined by your father, right? Does your father also do Artifact Refining?"
"Yes, my dad is really awesome at Artifact Refining too," Chu Chen nodded vigorously.
Long Yufei said in admiration, "Alchemy, Talisman, Artifact Refining, your father is truly incredible, a rare existence in all of Jiuzhou."
"That's right! My dad is the most amazing," Chu Chen nodded repeatedly.
However, Chu Xin suddenly looked at Long Yufei with a wary expression and said, "Auntie, you're very pretty, but don't get any ideas about my dad, okay? We have a mom."
"Pfft!"
The female guards laughed so hard they doubled over, tears streaming down their faces.
Even the old crone couldn't help but crack a smile.
"You little imp, so small yet so cunning,"
Long Yufei rubbed Chu Xin's little head, torn between laughter and tears.
