The dawn sun rises quietly, and all the haze of yesterday is dispelled.
Ziyang was naked in the wooden barrel. There were dark medicinal herbs floating in the water in front of his collarbone. The entire room was filled with a strong pungent and unpleasant medicinal smell.
The crystal dewdrops on the fine hair on his forehead dripped along the hair, and his fair and shiny skin was as white as jade, except for a few light brown scars on his neck that had not completely faded away.
Ugly scars are like a large amount of turbid, dark and thick ink that blends into the crystal clear lake water, polluting the pure and translucent lake water, which greatly affects the appearance.
At this time, his realm was at the peak of the ten realms of entry, but he was only one step away from the airflow realm. The culprit of this phenomenon was naturally Guisan who stole the medicinal materials.
Through his observations in the past few days and the changes in the intensity of Ziyang's flow force, Pei Yuan was almost certain that Ziyang would definitely complete a breakthrough today and enter the Qiflow realm.
However, things in the world are unpredictable, and Guisan stole the medicinal materials, resulting in insufficient efficacy. This caused Ziyang's realm to stay at the peak of the Tenth Realm of Inflow, making it difficult to enter the Qiflow Realm.
call!
A breath of turbid breath came out of his mouth. He was leaning on the barrel with his arms as usual. His abdomen had already left the water and he was about to stand up and get out of the cold medicinal bath water.
Unexpectedly, he smelled a hint of jasmine fragrance in the unpleasant smell of medicine. It may be because of the strong smell of medicine, which made the fragrance of jasmine very light.
Zi Yang's mouth opened slightly, and he opened his eyes in a panic. He looked at Qiu Qianqian, whose face was covered with gauze and her eyes were blinking slightly. His body immediately trembled, and his arms to protect his chest retracted into the bucket.
He accused with slight dissatisfaction: "You... what are you doing? Who let you in?"
Qiu Qianqian was not frightened by his voice of blame. Instead, she grabbed the barrel with both hands, blinked her clever and cunning eyes, and moved closer to him little by little.
"What are you afraid of? I'm just worried about you and have no other intentions." Qiu Qianqian's veil fluttered and she looked at Ziyang without hesitation.
Zi Yang pressed his back against the barrel, feeling extremely uncomfortable and said, "You go out first, I want to get dressed."
She retracted her leaning body, leaned her chin on the barrel, and said softly: "No need. Just wear it, I won't mind."
A beam of light shone in from the window. After feeling the warm sunshine, Ziyang was immediately confused because Pei Yuan and the others might push the door in at any time.
It didn't matter that they saw Qiu Qianqian staying with him. The main reason was that if this kind of thing came to Hua Yao's ears, it would be difficult for him to explain clearly.
Zi Yang's tone was almost pleading: "It's getting late, please leave quickly. I'm begging you."
Qiu Qianqian narrowed her beautiful eyes and said, "Begging me? How can you beg me? Do you just beg me in words? Actually, you don't have to beg me. I know you are only wearing a pair of shorts."
After hearing her words, Zi Yang's eyes widened and he said helplessly: "How could you do this! I regard you as a friend, but you are spying on me?"
Qiu Qianqian slapped the barrel with her palm, and said angrily: "You are peeping! I am guarding you and protecting you openly, why am I peeping?"
"Okay, okay." Ziyang put his palms up in front of her and said, "Now that I'm all awake, you should feel relieved, right? Should you go?"
"Okay. Since you are sincere in asking me, I won't embarrass you." Qiu Qianqian walked deftly, pausing every step, thinking for a long time, and then took the next step.
Originally she could walk out in just a few breaths, but at her speed, she wouldn't have half an hour to walk out of the room. Even half a quarter of an hour later, her fingertips just touched the door, which was also very long. possible.
Ziyang also saw that she wanted to punish him, but he couldn't push her. If the words didn't go well, it would be troublesome to argue with her again.
Although her walking speed was very slow, she was heading towards the door anyway. It didn't matter if it took a little longer. As long as she could get out before Pei Yuan and others arrived, Ziyang could completely accept it.
"Huayao, why did you think of visiting Ziyang today?" Jia Juesheng's voice sounded in the corridor outside the door.
Hua Yao said softly: "I heard that he will recover today, so I wanted to come over and take a look first."
"Can't you be gentler?" A resentful and shy voice came from the room.
Jia Juesheng was startled, and hurriedly took a few steps, blocked the door with his body, looked at Hua Yao awkwardly, and said, "Wait outside, I'll go in and take a look."
"No need." Hua Yao immediately pushed him away, broke into the room, and stared at Zi Yang blankly.
At this moment, Zi Yang was hurriedly tying his belt. When he heard the door being pushed open, he looked up at the expressionless Hua Yao, who immediately walked out.
Zi Yang put on his belt and immediately chased after her. He reached out to grab her delicate wrist, but Hua Yao shook her away. When he took action again, Hua Yao turned around, put her hands behind her back, and immediately stepped back. He took a few steps and stared at him with disappointed eyes.
"Huayao, things are not what you think." Ziyang pointed to Qiu Qianqian standing under the door frame and explained: "She was worried about my safety and guarded me in the room for one night, that's all."
"What she just said was false. Her purpose is to make you angry."
Hua Yao asked: "Will she go to the deserted sand ruins with you?"
Zi Yang didn't answer, and looked at Qiu Qianqian with a complicated expression. He wanted to say don't go to the Huangsha ruins, but Hua Yao was here, so he couldn't say it out loud.
What's more, Qiu Qianqian has a stubborn personality and has always been against Zi Yang. He originally wanted to use his expression to communicate with her and let her tell her that she would not go to the desert ruins.
But she was fine. She looked directly at Hua Yao and said arrogantly: "What do you think I'm going to do?! I'm going to the desert ruins. What's wrong? Can you care?"
Zi Yang looked at Hua Yao with a sad face.
"I changed my mind. If she goes to the deserted sand ruins with you, I won't stay here." After Hua Yao finished speaking, she left without looking back.
"Hey, hey, Huayao, Huayao!" Ziyang shouted several times, but did not hear any reply.
Jia Juesheng came to his side and said doubtfully: "Zi Yang, Pei Yuan said that you should be able to improve your realm to Qi Flow realm today, and there is also the injury on your neck..."
Zi Yang replied: "The dose of medicine was not enough, and I was unable to successfully break through to the Qi Flow Realm. Most of the wounds on my body have not healed yet."
Jia Juesheng looked at him with deep remorse: "Zi Yang, I... was negligent."
Zi Yang pointed at Qiu Qianqian and asked, "What about her? How did she get into my room? Forget it. Things have already happened, so what's the use of talking about it."
"Everything was fine the past few days, but who knew something went wrong on the last day and she slipped in." Jia Juesheng did not dare to look at him, or to be precise, he had no face to look at him.
Qiu Qianqian came over angrily: "What are you pointing at me for?! Can you try pointing at me again?"
When Jia Juesheng saw Qiu Qianqian's posture, he immediately said, "As long as you're okay, I'll leave first."
Ziyang said in a strong tone: "What's wrong?! I pointed out what's wrong with you? You made my best friend angry, so I pointed at you several times... What's wrong..." "
As he spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller. In order to avoid being threatened by her in the future, he had to swallow his anger and try not to quarrel with her as much as possible.
After all, he is no match for Qiu Qianqian now, and he knows this very well.
"Say, why don't you stop talking? I'm listening, you keep talking." Qiu Qianqian became more arrogant when she saw him showing weakness.
"Everyone is so angry with you, what else do you want me to say?" Ziyang lowered his head and did not dare to look at her.
Qiu Qianqian said softly: "Come here."
Zi Yang took a few steps back and said, "I won't go there."
Her tone was slightly more serious: "I asked you to come over!"
Zi Yang was furious and said: "I said I won't go! I won't go!"
"Okay. If you don't come over, then I'll leave." Qiu Qianqian turned around and left.
Zi Yang was deeply afraid of offending her and causing her to hold a grudge and retaliate in the future, so he reluctantly said: "Wait... stop!"
"Are you okay?" Qiu Qianqian asked slightly dissatisfiedly with her back to him.
Zi Yang walked to her side helplessly and said with a sad face: "I'm here, just say what you have to say."
The veil at the corner of Qiu Qianqian's mouth moved slightly, and she pretended to ask casually: "I heard that you can cook porridge, and you are pretty good at it. I just want to have a taste of your craftsmanship. Are you willing?"
Zi Yang immediately shook his head and said, "No, no. I can never cook porridge."
Qiu Qianqian snorted coldly: "If you don't want to make porridge for me, just say so. Don't play these little tricks with me. Can you still hide from me whether you know how to make porridge?"
Zi Yang said, "Who did you listen to? I really don't know how to cook porridge. If you don't believe me, go ask Jia Juesheng and the others."
Qiu Qianqian stared into his eyes and asked, "Children can't lie, right? Do you want me to ask other people? Do you not know how to make porridge? Or do you simply not want to cook it for me?"
"It's not impossible to make porridge for you, but you have to promise me that after entering the deserted sand ruins, you can't try to deal with me, let alone have any evil thoughts about me." With all kinds of helplessness, Zi Yang had to admit, and made his own demands.
"Last night was a good opportunity for me to take action, but I didn't do anything to you. Isn't that enough to reassure you?" Seeing Ziyang's silence, she stretched out her jade hand to hold his palm.
Zi Yang raised his palms very vigilantly, took a few steps back, and asked, "What are you going to do?"
Qiu Qianqian said naturally: "I'll ask you to make porridge for me."
"You don't need to pull me, I can walk by myself."
After saying that, the two of them disappeared under the bright light of the sun.

"That's wrong! How is that possible? I must be wrong! I must be wrong in divination!" Zhufeng's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he kept shaking his head in a daze, and the arm holding the jade token was shaking.
Xuan Yi on the side asked: "What on earth did you calculate?!"
Zhufeng's lips trembled involuntarily: "It's bad! It's bad! Although I'm not sure who the bad omen will happen to, I want to advise Ziyang and the others not to go to the desert ruins."
Xuan Yi asked again: "You mean the bad omen will be related to the desert ruins?"
Zhufeng shook his head and said: "I'm not sure that the bad omen will happen in the deserted sand ruins, but what we are going to now is the deserted sand ruins. If we don't go, we may be able to resolve the bad omen, but we have to be extremely careful when we go."
