It must be said that even Qing Yu herself was surprised by that .

[Hasn’t this fella always shown nothing but disdain for her? And here he is speaking up for her? ?]
[Does he have something up his sleeve… . . ]
Cang Jian looked like he was similarly surprised as well, but his face quickly regained its usual composure . He smiled and nodded his head, as he went on to say: “Lord Yue Fen does not have to worry . I will not let the lass lose an arm or a leg in here . ”
Hearing that, Qing Yu could not help but feel a corner of her mouth twitch . [Why do those words sound so forbidding?]
“I will have to trouble the Grand Priest then . ” Yue Fen nodded in response . Before he left, he reminded Qing Yu again to not stir up trouble, and then departed from the place .

Cang Jian watched Yue Fen’s back as he gradually walked away into the distance, and then turned his gaze upon the young lady before him .
Not to mention anything else, but just seeing the young girl’s calm and composed demeanor was strange to say the least . It was said that she was brought here from the lower realms and faced with a completely unfamiliar environment, she was not feeling the slightest bit of panic or fear at all?
So how could she possibly be a young little lady who had not seen much of the world?
Although that was what Cang Jian thought in his mind, his face did not show a ripple of emotion, but just curved up the ends of his lips to say: “Little lass, what is your name?”
“Yu Qing . ” Qing Yu returned with a pure and harmless smile, not batting an eyelid nor blushing in the slightest as she gave the name she had become so used to .

Cang Jian nodded his head and said to her: “Yu Qing, from now onwards, you are part of the Star Priest Palace . Someone will bring you around to let you familiarize yourself with this place . You will have a lot of freedom here in the Star Priest Palace, unlike the other palaces with their tedious and elaborate tasks . All you have to do here is to tidy up the texts and scrolls here in the Star Priest Palace everyday . ”
[It’s really that easy?]
Qing Yu could not help but feel a little doubtful . She had thought that the woman had sent her here to do some hard labour .
“There has been quite a number of cases where nameless nobodies who started tidying texts and scrolls here that went on to become someone outstanding in a single leap . It all depends on yourself, as the mystical secrets within these texts are endless . ” Cang Jian’s eyes were deep as he looked at her, his tone meaningful as he said those words .
Qing Yu blinked her eyes, impossible to see whether she really understood as she nodded her head . “I will do my best”

“Mm . You may go now . ” Cang Jian said and waved his hand dismissively . A white robed man standing at the door immediately came walking in, to bring Qing Yu out .
After a while, within the empty Star Priest Palace, a gentle and melodious woman’s voice rang out all of a sudden . “How?”
Cang Jian slowly turned around, and then bowed respectfully as he greeted: “Cang Jian is incompetent . I was not able to spot anything unusual . ”
“Oh? You mean to say that she is merely just an ordinary little lass from the lower realms?”
