No sooner had Song Xiwei left than Xiao Zhuang bluntly said, "You still think you're some high and mighty demon lord! Who are you ordering around? Do you think you can boss my brother Wei around? You even expect her to feed you..."

Xiao Zhuang glared angrily at Ao Qian, planning to take advantage of Song Xiwei's absence to humiliate him properly.

When Song Xiwei was there just now, Ao Qian hadn't given Xiao Zhuang a friendly look at all, but now he actually smiled.

Seeing Xiao Zhuang's exasperation, his smile deepened.

Xiao Zhuang was furious. "Laughing? You're still laughing! You were definitely up to no good! What do you have to be so proud of!"

Aoqian ignored Xiaozhuang, but his actions once again opened Xiaozhuang's eyes.

The person who had just said he didn't have the energy to eat was now sitting up straight and pouring himself some water.

Xiao Zhuang stared wide-eyed at Ao Qian as if she'd seen a ghost: "You were faking it! You really were faking it! I'm going to tell Wei Ge you lied to her!"

"What is your relationship with Song Xiwei?" Aoqian suddenly asked.

Xiao Zhuang frowned and glared at Ao Qian. This man had ill intentions. Who knew what tricks he was up to this time?

Aoqian said calmly, "If it's just a brother-sister relationship, then don't meddle too much. It's his business if he wants to feed me."

Xiao Zhuang couldn't stand such words.

She and Song Xiwei grew up together and were closer than ever. Aoqian was just a mission, yet she actually took herself so seriously?

Xiao Zhuang was furious and retorted, "We're not siblings, we're the closest..." He almost blurted out the word "sisters."

Ao Qian's eyes suddenly turned cold. "I don't care what your relationship was before, but now, Song Xiwei is my most important subordinate. I won't allow any irrelevant people to get in my way."

...

While feeding the horses outside, Song Xiwei suddenly clutched her chest, a sweet taste rising in her throat, which she suppressed.

He used telepathy to tell Xiao Zhuang not to provoke Ao Qian, and to stay here to protect him because he had something to do and needed to leave.

Aoqian is now unable to move around easily, and this area is a wasteland, rarely visited by people, so it is considered safe.

Xiao Zhuang stayed behind to protect Ao Qian, and she returned soon.

If your personal magical artifact malfunctions and you continue to ignore it, it will cause a lot of trouble later.

I didn't take it seriously before because Xiao Zhuang wasn't here, but now that Xiao Zhuang is here, I feel a little more at ease.

The only way to repair this hairpin now is to try your luck at Ziyun Peak.

In addition, Ziyun Peak might be lucky enough to find a miraculous medicine that would benefit Aoqian's body.

Inside the thatched hut, Ao Qian sensed that Xiao Zhuang and Song Xiwei were communicating telepathically.

Because Xiao Zhuang was furious just moments ago, but suddenly he calmed down.

Song Xiwei had been gone for a long time.

Aoqian's movements when sitting up are relatively small, but it is still very inconvenient for him to stand up and walk.

He didn't move around recklessly; his body wouldn't allow it, and besides, he didn't want Song Xiwei's previous efforts to be in vain.

Despite not wanting to talk to Xiao Zhuang, Ao Qian couldn't help but ask, "Did Song Xiwei do something behind my back?"

Xiao Zhuang rolled her eyes with an air of arrogance. "Do I look like I'm going to pay any attention to you?"

Ao Qian: "..."

Seeing that Aoqian was angered by him, Xiao Zhuang was very satisfied. "With Brother Wei gone, you have no one to back you up. I advise you not to cause trouble, otherwise, I will beat you without hesitation!"

Ao Qian said coldly, "Song Xiwei is injured, and you're comfortable letting him act on his own? Is this what you call a good relationship between you two?"

When questioned by Aoqian, Xiaozhuang immediately retorted, "She was injured because of you! What right do you have to question me! Besides, repairing one's natal magic weapon cannot be delayed. She has to endure the pain of being pierced by a thousand arrows every day. I can't bear to see her suffer like that!"

Ao Qian remained silent.

They've successfully gotten what they wanted from Xiao Zhuang.

At the summit of Ziyun Peak, Ao Qian had heard of it.

As if thinking of something else, Aoqian frowned slightly.
