Xu Qiuqian nodded: "But you didn't do that."
"Yes, I've been looking for reasons to delay. He probably doesn't want to waste time with me these past two days, so he always wants to control me."
Speaking of this, a hint of apology appeared in Zhu Yichen's eyes.
"Just now..."
"It's okay. You were controlled just now so you attacked me. I won't mind."
Zhu Yichen breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
Xu Qiuqian thought for a moment and glanced at Shan Miaomiao and Gu Jiao.
"How about you stay in the jade pendant space first? If you will be controlled if you go out, you can stay here first, and I will call you then."
Zhu Yichen looked hesitant.
"But if I also come in, then Master, wouldn't you be the only one who can help you outside, Senior Jin Ling?"
In fact, she couldn't count on even Senior Jin Ling.
However, before Xu Qiuqian could say anything, Gu Jiao immediately said: "Sister Qiuqian, let me out."
Xu Qiuqian was stunned.
"But you just built the foundation..."
Gu Jiao looked serious: "If my cultivation level is low and I have to be protected, then what's the use of me coming here? I know Sister Qiu Qian that you are worried that my cultivation level is too low and I can't protect myself if something happens to me, but I I heard that those people outside have very high cultivation levels, maybe in their eyes my foundation building cultivation base is similar to Sister Qiu Qian’s golden elixir cultivation base?"
"..."
Xu Qiuqian thought about it and felt that Gu Jiao was right.
And she can't always protect them under her wings and prevent them from going through wind and rain because of their low cultivation level.
"Oh well."
"I'll come too." Shan Miaomiao said from the side, "Aren't you here just to find Mu Lingzi? As a water spirit girl, I should naturally contribute."
Xu Qiuqian was surprised.
"Do you really want to go out? It's very dangerous outside, and your injuries haven't healed yet."
Although there is no danger yet, she always has the feeling that a storm is coming, and feels that all forces are brewing something, otherwise this formation will have no meaning in existence.
What's more, she really hasn't figured out the purpose of this existence that transformed into the former immortal capital so far.
Shan Miaomiao raised her head and was quite proud: "I took an eighth-grade Huiyuan Pill. The external injuries have healed and the internal injuries are also being repaired. However, the internal injuries will not be cured in an instant. I can't do it because of that." What's the waste?"
When Gu Jiao next to her heard this, she looked at Shan Miaomiao in confusion.
"What's the waste because of that?"
Zhu Yichen said from the side: "It should be due to choking."
Xu Qiuqian was still curious about why Shan Miaomiao suddenly changed her mind.
"Yes, yes, that's it!" Shan Miaomiao responded repeatedly, "I figured it out, you can't escape by running away. Instead of escaping like this, it's better to face it bravely! Anyway, I died once!"
"Wow! Sister Shan, you are great! Then when I encounter danger, Sister Shan will protect me!" Gu Jiao said with a slightly exaggerated expression.
Shan Miaomiao was even more proud.
"Ahem, it's easy to talk, don't worry, we have been together for so long, I have long regarded you as my sister, and I will definitely protect you."
"Uh-huh!"
Xu Qiuqian: "..."
Great, no more guessing why.
She felt that Shan Miaomiao changed her mind largely because of Gu Jiao.
But I didn't expect that Shan Miaomiao would do this.
Xu Qiuqian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but what made her even more surprised was that Gu Jiao would actually say such a thing. She glanced at Gu Jiao, who seemed a little embarrassed. She didn't have the exaggerated expression just now. She lowered her head and raised her cheek to her ear. The sides are slightly red.
As a result, Zhu Yichen was temporarily left in the jade pendant space, watching the three people leave eagerly.
When the three disappeared, he looked at Qingming next to him.
Qingming seemed to be aware of it, and looked towards him, tilting her head and looking at him doubtfully, as if asking him what was wrong.
"Aren't you lonely when Master and the others leave you here?" He joked leisurely.
"Zhizhi..."
"I don't understand what you say. If you're lonely, just nod once. If you're not lonely, just nod twice."
Qingming clicked twice, hesitated for a moment, and clicked again.
"What does this mean?"
"Zhizhi..."
"Huh? Lonely or not?"
Qingming clicked once, then twice.
"..." Forget it, what was he talking to a spiritual beast about here?
Zhu Yichen sat down, closed his eyes and started practicing.
Qingming, on the other hand, stared at Zhu Yichen for a long time without turning his eyes.
It didn't know why Zhu Yichen asked it this question.
Loneliness is a very unfamiliar word to it.
Since its birth, it has been accompanied by the people of the Yi family. For it, before it met the patriarch, darkness, fear and pain occupied everything it had.
Later, after it was rescued by the clan leader and returned to Shaoli Island, its fear and pain were dispelled.
The darkness gradually left it.
There are Zhizhi and half of them, it is very happy.
It has always been with you since it was born, so it is not alone.
But it nodded again, that's because it knew that the patriarch was doing very important things outside, and it couldn't help the patriarch, so it could only wait and think in this jade pendant space.
If you think too much and have no one to play with, you will indeed feel lonely.
But that feeling is rare.
Really very few!
Just a little bit of loneliness.
Since being rescued by the patriarch, it has been happy every day!
But the reason why it nodded was because it did feel a little lonely. It couldn't ignore and deny it just because it only had one point. This was not good. It would not lie to the patriarch, nor would it lie to the patriarch's apprentice.
But it was also surprised.
Because no one has ever cared about whether it is lonely...
Qingming stared at Zhu Yichen and thought wildly for a long time.
And outside the jade pendant space.
"Let me tell you first, if you don't eat the food here, you won't understand what the people here say, but if you eat it, you will be affected."
"What impact?"
"You will have a wrong understanding of this place, thinking that this is the fairyland after ascension."
Shan Miaomiao's eyes widened: "How could this be the fairyland after ascension!" As she said that, she looked at the scenery around her and said, "It's not much different from other places."
"Well, it is indeed like this in Guiyuan Palace, but it is known outside the Immortal City. It is not bad. And I am just an immortal attendant, so the place I live in is naturally inferior to others."
Shan Miaomiao pouted.
"Even the Immortal Attendant isn't that bad, right? It's not as good as our room on Shaoli Island."
Gu Jiao nodded: "Yes!"
Xu Qiuqian smiled helplessly.
"You need a token to enter and leave Guiyuan Hall, and it would be bad if you meet other people. You should stay in my room first."
"Then what can we do?"
