Chapter 166 Meeting in a Dream
"Are you sure it will help?"
Long Xuan, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but lean over and ask Chi Li in his ear.
"It will."
Chi Li's tone was very firm.
Yun Shuili didn't pay attention to this, but walked to Jiang Jiu and gently touched Jiang Jiu's forehead.
"Is it not uncomfortable for Junior Sister to suddenly merge with you?"
His soft and weak tone and the renewed address made the faces of the two people present change on the spot. One was Ji Chen and the other was Yu Zimo. The atmosphere instantly became extremely subtle.
Jiang Jiu immediately noticed something was wrong and quickly pulled his hand away.
“What are you doing…?”
She gave Yun Shuili a slight warning look, asking him to do such a small trick at such a serious moment.
Yun Shuili didn't care about that and showed a pitiful expression.
"Junior sister..."
His voice has always been pleasant, and the deliberate softening of his tone was simply overwhelming, even the ginger wine was a bit too much for him.
"I'm fine."
Jiang Jiu's expression was a little stiff, but he still answered Yun Shuili.
"Then Junior Sister, do you miss me?"
Yun Shuili's eyes suddenly became bright. There seemed to be stars and oceans in the mermaid's eyes. He looked at someone so intently that no one could refuse his request.
He had been trying hard to act mature for Jiang Jiu's sake, but in fact, he had been unable to hold back for a long time.
Yun Shuili wants more care from Jiang Jiu. He needs a lot of love to fill him up.
Now there were seven people to share it, and he could hardly control his impulse.
"....think."
Jiang Jiu held it in for a long time, but looking into Yun Shuili's eyes, he really had no way of refusing, so he could only squeeze out a word from between his teeth.
But as soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere in the living room changed instantly. Everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Jiu, like a wolf in the dark night, green and frightening.
There were not many people in the room originally, and when they knew that Jiang Jiu had recovered his memory and agreed to leave, almost everyone couldn't control their nature.
Jiang Jiu suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly changed the subject.
"The most urgent thing now is to call Fo Jiang back. I can't leave without him."
After the words were spoken, everyone else finally regained their composure. They couldn't satisfy their desires now, so they could only wait.
Seeing that they had diverted their attention, Jiang Jiu finally breathed a sigh of relief and cried secretly in his heart.
This was really the end of her. Even if she returned to the real world with them, in the normal timeline, her situation would be quite worrying.
Each one of them is more extravagant than the other. Although she won't die, her kidneys probably can't take it.
Jiang Jiu remained calm on the surface, but he had already started secretly planning how to balance his time.
She should wait for a while before accepting them, otherwise her life will be difficult.
No one knows what Jiang Jiu is thinking now, but even if they knew, they wouldn’t care. Jiang Jiu will be theirs sooner or later anyway.
They already knew that no one would give in.
Including from today onwards, Jiang Jiu will establish a special connection with each of them, which also means that Jiang Jiu will never be able to leave alone with anyone.
But even so, they are happy with it.
...
"You mean, let me help you resist the Time Worm?"
The tree spirit raised its eyebrows, and its face, which looked exactly like Jiang Jiu's, was full of evil, causing Long Xuan, who came to communicate with it, to frown.
He still likes ginger wine.
"Well, Ginger Wine promised us to leave."
Long Xuan nodded.
"No, you didn't lie to her, did you? I have to meet her in person, otherwise I won't help you."
The tree spirit crossed its arms, with an expression that said, "If you don't meet my requirements, I won't help you." This made Long Xuan secretly anxious.
He had always known that Jiang Jiu and the tree spirit had a good relationship. If the tree spirit bewitched Jiang Jiu...
The man, worried that his wife would be taken away, was extremely anxious until a figure appeared behind him.
"I came, they didn't lie to me."
When Jiang Jiu's voice came, Long Xuan's back suddenly stiffened. He turned around and saw Jiang Jiu standing not far away with a smile.
He thought the others would not let the ginger wine come.
"I fell into the dream by myself. It has nothing to do with others."
Jiang Jiu walked up to Long Xuan and patted his shoulder.
Although she has no ability now, she seems to still have some knowledge of metaphysics. With a little application, she can achieve the effect of entering a dream.
When the tree spirit saw Jiang Jiu, his eyes lit up and he quickly stepped forward to talk to Jiang Jiu in private.
But he didn't expect Jiang Jiu to gently push his hand away.
"I won't stay in the cultivation world with you."
She refused calmly.
The tree spirit didn't expect Jiang Jiu to deny it so directly, and suddenly his whole body froze.
"Don't you want to? Or are you blaming me? I will treat you well."
As soon as the tree spirit said this, Long Xuan's face turned green. He stepped forward and tried to grab Jiang Jiu, putting some distance between them, and was on high alert.
"I knew you had bad intentions!"
He pointed at the tree spirit indignantly. Now he didn't even pretend anymore. He was just openly trying to steal his wife and even confessed his love to her.
Jiang Jiu almost laughed out loud at Long Xuan's actions, while the tree spirit beside him curled his lips in disdain.
"It's because you're not capable enough. You can't even keep one person in your group."
Her words were like a knife stabbing into Long Xuan's heart. He was immediately deflated and had a look of wanting to cry but having no tears. He looked as pitiful as a puppy caught in the rain.
“I…I’m not…”
He choked and hugged Jiang Jiu, not knowing what he wanted to say, and his mouth was mumbling.
"You like me, don't you?"
Long Xuan still remembered the kiss Jiang Jiu gave him, which definitely couldn't be fake.
Jiang Jiu was held tightly, feeling helpless, but seeing that Long Xuan looked seriously injured, he quickly patted his back and comforted him earnestly.
"Yes, yes, of course I like you."
Hearing her words that sounded like she was coaxing a child, the tree spirit immediately became furious, but when he met Jiang Jiu's eyes, the anger dissipated completely.
She sighed and spread her hands.
"I understand. I will help you."
It can be seen that Jiang Jiu really likes her. If she continues to interfere, Jiang Jiu might hate her in the future, and she doesn't want to be hated.
"But in this case, we can only meet in dreams from now on."
The tree spirit couldn't help but add a sentence.
Jiang Jiu smiled gently when he heard this.
"It's okay, I sleep every night."
The heartwarming conversation between the two people fell into Long Xuan's ears, and his expression suddenly changed. He began to think secretly in his heart that he would make sure that Jiang Jiu could not sleep and could not see this broken tree spirit.
