Chu Qinghe was well aware of what Dongfang Bubai and the others were thinking.

Wanting to keep Wanwan by Chu Qinghe's side is not as simple as just using Wanwan as a hostage.

As the Holy Maiden of the Yin Kui Sect and a disciple of Zhu Yuyan, once Zhu Yuyan unifies the Tang Dynasty, if Zhu Yuyan harbors any disloyalty or becomes an enemy of Chu Qinghe and others, Dongfang Bubai and the other women can directly take action to depose Zhu Yuyan and let Wanwan take her place in ruling the Tang Dynasty.

Upon hearing what Chu Qinghe said, Qu Feiyan and Xue Qianxun suddenly realized what was going on.

Qu Feiyan muttered to herself, "As expected, she's been following the young master for so long that she's become so cunning."

The moment the words left her lips, Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue's gazes immediately fell upon Qu Feiyan.

Sensing something was wrong, Qu Feiyan quickly pretended to be confused and looked up to admire the beautiful night sky.

backyard.

Inside the room.

As the door closed, Wanwan looked at Zhu Yuyan and said, "Master is going to refine the power of heaven and earth and go into seclusion to break through, so she needs someone to guard her. Why rush me to go with that guy?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuyan shook her head and said, "There are naturally elders in the Yin Kui Sect whom I can trust. Moreover, I will be traveling to the Great Song Dynasty by ship. It is much safer on the river than on land. Even if you come with me, it will be of no use."

"And as you just heard, after I enter the Divine Seat Realm, I will encounter other enemies."

"The person who can make Young Master Chu so cautious must be someone we can't handle."

"It's safer to follow Young Master Chu than to risk my life by following my side."

After saying that, seeing that Wanwan's face still showed unwillingness, Zhu Yuyan sighed and said, "That Young Master Chu is extraordinary. If you follow him, besides being able to protect you, there will probably be many other benefits."

"Although you are only at the late stage of the Grandmaster realm, you have already received my true teachings on the Heavenly Demon Great Art and many martial arts of the Yin Kui Sect. Even if you stay with me, it will be of little help to you."

"It would be better to stay by Young Master Chu's side. With her help, and given your talent, you will surely be able to reach the Divine Seat Realm in the future."

"At that time, I will have someone to entrust with the Great Tang Kingdom and the Yin Kui Sect."

At this point, Zhu Yuyan paused for a moment before continuing, "Over the years, Master has been troubled by love. Now, the only thing he can think of is to carry forward the Yin Kui Sect so that you can be happy."

"But after these past few days, I've realized that I've always been a frog in a well. Even after reaching the Divine Seat Realm, I still can't truly be fearless."

Upon hearing what Zhu Yuyan said, Wanwan immediately thought of the scene of Chu Qinghe fighting with the Bad Commander, and her expression darkened.

After a few moments, Wanwan spoke up: "So, Master, do you want me to win that guy over?"

Hearing this, Zhu Yuyan smiled and shook her head, saying, "Using one's own disciples as allies to protect oneself is something that only people like Fan Qinghui from Cihang Jingzhai would do. I despise the actions of Cihang Jingzhai the most in my life, so how could I stoop to their level?"

As she spoke, Zhu Yuyan looked at Wanwan and said, "What Master wants is the same as what I just said to that Young Master Chu outside. I simply want you to be safe."

"If everything goes well in the future, and Master successfully brings the Tang Dynasty under his control, then when you come back, Master will let you sit on the dragon throne and make you the first female emperor in the world."

As she spoke, Zhu Yuyan patted Wanwan's head.

For some reason, images of the years I've spent with Wanwan suddenly flashed into my mind.

In Zhu Yuyan's view, the most correct thing she did in the past ten years and the thing she has never regretted was keeping Wanwan by her side.

However, when her gaze fell on Wanwan and she saw the sorrow on Wanwan's face, Zhu Yuyan sighed softly in her heart.

"Hopefully, I can find this girl a safe haven, instead of leaving her heartbroken like I have!"

Looking at Zhu Yuyan's smiling face, Wanwan opened her mouth, but fell silent after a few breaths.

As Zhu Yuyan's disciple, Wanwan naturally understood Zhu Yuyan.

Once a decision has been made in one's heart, it is not so easy to change one's mind.

Therefore, after a moment's thought, Wanwan said, "Wanwan understands."

Wanwan understood as well.

Next, once Zhu Yuyan enters the Divine Seat Realm, if she wants to plot for the throne, she will inevitably face attacks from various forces.

However, Wanwan, who is only at the late stage of the Grandmaster realm, is very likely to become a burden.

Rather than being by Zhu Yuyan's side and having to distract her with her care, it would be better to stay by Chu Qinghe's side and focus on cultivating to improve one's strength as soon as possible.

Moreover, Wanwan was fully aware of this.

If she and Chu Qinghe become more familiar with each other in the future, even if Zhu Yuyan encounters any problems, she can still ask Chu Qinghe for help.

Compared to staying in the Tang Dynasty with Zhu Yuyan, it was clearly better for him to stay by Chu Qinghe's side.

Knowing that they would be separated for a long time, Zhu Yuyan no longer displayed the cold arrogance she usually showed to others. Instead, she chatted with Wanwan about everyday things and her own feelings, just like an elder.

It wasn't until the moon was high in the sky that Zhu Yuyan brought Wanwan back to the inner courtyard.

After greeting Chu Qinghe and the others, Zhu Yuyan then moved away and disappeared into the distance.

Zhu Yuyan's departure also meant that Chu Qinghe's family had successfully gained another mouth to feed.
