Sensational! Fake Noble VS Real Genius-Chapter 1516: About Twin Vine; Xiao Qiao’s Master

Gu Zhiqi and the other two listened to her tone and immediately imagined a scene of family discord.

Thus, they didn’t mention anything about the Qiao Family.

The Qiao Family isn’t as large as the Gu Family Manor, so naturally, they couldn’t build a training ground as big, but they had a medium-sized Martial Arts Training Ground.

Mo Weiran and Lu Xingzhe went to spar in the training ground.

Mo Jinjin, sticking to Mo Weiran, also went along to the training ground.

Qiao Qingshu, on the other hand, took Gu Zhiqi to the Flower Room.

The Qiao Family’s yard was planted with a lot of flowers, not fewer in variety than those in the Gu Family Manor.

The Qiao Family’s Flower Room was very large, and upon entering, various fragrances of flowers hit the nose.

Despite the different floral scents mixed together, the aroma wasn’t unpleasant; rather, it gave a sense of clarity.

The most eye-catching part of the Flower Room was undoubtedly the vine climbing on the trellis.

Blooming on the vine were flowers resembling stars, in shades of gold, pale yellow, crescent white, and gradient yellow-white.

Upon seeing those flowers, Gu Zhiqi’s eyes shifted slightly, "Overflowing Star Creeper?"

"Yes, before, I heard that you... um, the person occupying your body had razed half of the garden, so I sought out Brother Huaijin to get some."

"Some survived being planted, others didn’t."

Thankfully, the Overflowing Star Creeper survived.

The Overflowing Star Creeper was Gu Zhiqi’s favorite.

Because it blooms all year round, and at night it emits a faint light, if a large patch clusters together, it can even serve as a lamp.

Listening to Qiao Qingshu’s words, Gu Zhiqi remembered what Gu Yuluo had said to her before.

She decided not to think about it, as her heart had started to ache.

The two of them strolled around the Flower Room once, then left.

Before leaving the Flower Room, Gu Zhiqi picked a branch of Overflowing Star Creeper.

After reaching the Martial Arts Training Ground, Qiao Qingshu began to teach Mo Jinjin about various medicinal herbs.

Gu Zhiqi let Mo Weiran follow Qiao Qingshu because Soul’s Return to Hometown was somewhat related to medical toxins.

But Mo Jinjin was different; she had a talent for Poison Arts.

Thus, Gu Zhiqi assigned Mo Jinjin to study under Qiao Qingshu.

Qiao Qingshu practiced Dual Cultivation of medicine and poison, just right for treating Mo Jinjin’s illness.

As for why Angel’s people went to great lengths to target the Mo family siblings, Gu Zhiqi hadn’t figured it out yet.

However, letting the two study under Qiao Qingshu would at least give them more ability to protect themselves.

Mo Jinjin seemed not to have the intelligence of her peers, but her insight and memory far exceeded theirs.

Thus, identifying herbs and memorizing their effects was easy for her.

Qiao Qingshu only taught her a little, and she took the book to memorize on her own.

After Mo Jinjin left, Gu Zhiqi turned her eyes to Qiao Qingshu and asked, "I haven’t asked you about the Twin Vine yet."

Qiao Qingshu turned her gaze, looking at Gu Zhiqi and said, "You want to ask about the origin of the Twin Vine?"

Gu Zhiqi nodded.

Qiao Qingshu’s lips curved slightly, saying, "The Twin Vine was given to me by you, and you taught me the pact."

"Not only that, my Ancient Martial Arts were also taught by you, and, well, the Auxiliary Item too, it was you who helped establish the connection."

Qiao Qingshu also had an Auxiliary Item, a book.

In daily fights, she used the book.

Because the Twin Vine was rare and prone to thieves’ coveting, she seldom used it.

The last time at the Yan City Black Market was her first use in nearly three years.

Gu Zhiqi listened, remained silent, then a few seconds later, glanced at Qiao Qingshu and asked, "Could it be, you are my disciple?"

Qiao Qingshu gave a light laugh, "I should have been, but you found me a master."

Gu Zhiqi: ?
