Hearing this, Lin Jing turned his head to look at Huang Qingling.
By this time, Huang Qingling had already buried her head into her chest, and Lin Jing guessed she was probably looking for a crack in the ground to crawl into.
It was a good thing Little Sparrow wasn’t here; otherwise, Huang Qingling might have already erupted.
“What exactly did they lose, Brother Li, do you know?”
Lin Jing asked again.
Li Tangyu smiled and said,
“Actually, it’s nothing valuable, just two or three Magic Artifacts, and a few stalks of Spirit Grass and several low-level Elixir Medicines.”
“Is there a Magic Artifact shaped like a crescent moon and another that looks like a stick…”
Huang Qingling then lifted her head and spoke.
After hearing Huang Qingling’s words, Li Tangyu and Zhang Yuan looked at each other and then both turned to look at Huang Qingling.
“There are indeed two Magic Artifacts that look like that…”
“Sister Qingling, how do you know?”
Huang Qingling covered most of her face with her hand, instantly feeling utterly shamefaced.
Fortunately, the people present were all very familiar with each other; otherwise, she would never have spoken out.
“Can you two wait for a moment…”
With that, Huang Qingling stood up, left the room, and headed for her bedroom.
The two looked at Lin Jing, not understanding the situation.
Lin Jing appeared helpless and responded,
“You’ll find out soon…”
At Lin Jing’s words, not only did Li Tangyu and Zhang Yuan become curious, but even Li Qingqing was intrigued.
The three of them lost the appetite to continue eating, so they turned their heads and looked toward the door, waiting for Huang Qingling to return.
It wasn’t long before Huang Qingling returned.
In her arms, she carried a pile of sundries, which were exactly the Magic Artifacts, Spirit Grass, and Elixir Medicines that Little Sparrow had robbed.
Under the shocked gazes of the three, Huang Qingling brought the pile of sundries to Li Tangyu, pouring them all into his arms in one go.
Li Tangyu finally recovered from his shock and hurriedly caught them, fearing they might fall to the ground. “See if these are the ones…”
Huang Qingling said.
Li Tangyu began to examine them one by one, the crescent-shaped Magic Artifact, the Elixir Medicines, the Spirit Grass…
These were exactly the same as the items reported lost by the disciple, except for two Elixir Medicines that were missing; the rest were all here.
“Sister Qingling, what’s going on here?”
“How did these items end up in your possession?” Li Tangyu asked, looking bewildered and puzzled. Huang Qingling sighed helplessly,
“Sigh…’
“The thief you mentioned, it’s Little Sparrow…”
First came a deathly silence.
Then, both Li Tangyu and Li Qingqing let out a cry of alarm, and even the normally composed Zhang Yuan, for a moment, failed to react, standing there stunned.
“How can Little Sparrow talk, and even learn to rob…”
“Could it be, you taught it…?”
After her surprise, Li Qingqing looked at Huang Qingling inquisitively. Huang Qingling quickly spoke up in her own defense,
“How could I possibly teach it that? It’s completely embarrassing…” “It often runs outside; where it learned these things, I have no idea.” Then Huang Qingling continued with an indignant tone,
“That silly bird has caused me such trouble, I must deal with it when it comes back.”
Just as Huang Qingling finished speaking,
Zhang Yuan suddenly said,
“Little Sparrow is nearby, not far away. I can feel it.”
The others looked at Zhang Yuan, puzzled by what kind of powerful Cultivation Technique this was.
Lin Jing was now also at the Foundation Establishment Stage, and he hadn’t sensed anything, not to mention Li Tangyu, who was in the later stages of Foundation Establishment.
From his reaction just now, Lin Jing knew that even Li Tangyu was unaware that Little Sparrow was nearby.
Hearing Zhang Yuan speak, Huang Qingling directly called out to the outside:
“Little Sparrow, come here…”
“Otherwise, I’m going to deal with you…”
As expected…
The moment Huang Qingling’s words ended, Little Sparrow flapped its wings and flew in, albeit wobbling and at a slow speed, as if it were heading to its own execution.
Little Sparrow, seemingly aware of Huang Qingling’s fury, didn’t dare to fly close to her but instead perched on Lin Jing’s shoulder.
At this moment, everyone turned their gaze towards it.
Li Tangyu was still quite perplexed, sizing up Little Sparrow from top to bottom.
“Can this Little Sparrow speak?”
“It can currently only say two words,” Huang Qingling explained, feeling somewhat helpless.
“It wouldn’t be those two words, would it?” Li Tangyu and Li Qingqing exchanged glances.
Li Qingqing looked around the group and noticed that her brother and Zhang Yuan both looked very intrigued, so she suggested:
“Why not have it speak for us to hear?”
“Are you sure?” Huang Qingling asked, looking at the three of them with interest.
“Mmm-hmm…”
The three nodded repeatedly.
“Alright then…”
Huang Qingling seemed quite helpless and then spoke to Little Sparrow: “Little Sparrow, how do you rob someone? Give them a demonstration.” Little Sparrow turned its head to look at Huang Qingling, who gave it a look.
Then…
In an instant, Little Sparrow moved like an arrow, charging towards Li Tangyu. At the same time, a strange and somewhat unpleasant sound was heard:
“Hand it over…”
As the two words fell, Little Sparrow was already atop the roof beam, with a crescent-shaped Magic Artifact in its beak.
It was the very one that Li Tangyu had been holding a moment before.
Looking back at Li Tangyu, he had just begun to realize what happened and looked up towards the ceiling…
Already shocked by the fact that Little Sparrow could speak, Li Tangyu was frozen for a moment, and coupled with this sudden attack…
Li Tangyu was so caught off guard that he lost a Magic Artifact from his grasp without even realizing it.
Seeing this scene, everyone was struck dumb.
After a moment, Li Qingqing reacted and burst into uncontrollable laughter while thumping the table.
“Hahaha…”
“My brother…my brother, he was actually robbed by Little Sparrow, right in front of his eyes.”
“Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter…”
As Li Qingqing laughed so hard she could barely catch her breath, Li Tangyu’s face flushed red, but he didn’t try to explain himself.
Because, indeed, he had been completely taken by surprise and Little Sparrow had snatched the Magic Artifact.
Mainly, Little Sparrow was really fast, and it had chosen the perfect moment, just as Li Tangyu was taken aback.
Li Tangyu was just careless enough to fall prey to the trick.
And Zhang Yuan, sitting beside Li Tangyu, was twitching the corners of his mouth.
Because he, too, had been briefly stunned just now; luckily, Little Sparrow hadn’t targeted him,
After a while, Li Qingqing had also finished her laughing and calmed down.
Then Li Tangyu opened his mouth again:
“This Little Sparrow, seems rather extraordinary…”
Li Qingqing teased him, saying:
“Of course, it’s extraordinary, able to snatch things right from you. Little Sparrow is really amazing.
“I’ve decided, the scare Little Sparrow gave me is now water under the bridge.”
Li Tangyu’s face immediately went slack, worried that this incident, through Li Qingqing’s telling, would become an embarrassing story for the ages. Given Li Qingqing’s nature, he feared she might never let him live it down..
