In fact, Qiao Qiu never intended to be enemies with the female lead. Her goal was simply to ensure that she could change her original path as cannon fodder and live a smooth life.

Moreover, she was provoked by Ye Yu at the time, which is why she didn't have the idea of ​​avenging her.

Qiao Qiu's only regret is that the protagonist cannot die while she is alive, otherwise the whole world will collapse. Otherwise, she would have already made some harmful protagonists pay for their crimes and let them go unpunished.

Continue to play innocent?

It does not exist.

Gu Yu knelt down before her, "Master, I'm sorry, I couldn't be by your side when you needed me most."

Qiao Qiu helped Gu Yu up and said, "This is not your fault. I was the one who wanted to avoid you at the time, and there was nothing you could do about it."

“Master…” Gu Yu didn’t know what to say. Fortunately, her master had survived a near-death experience and returned safely.

"Alright, staying alive is more important than anything else."

"Mmm." Gu Yu nodded excitedly.

"Accompany Master for a walk behind Shangqing Palace." Qiao Qiu looked at herself; the black aura of the curse had almost dissipated, so going out for a walk was fine.

"Okay." Gu Yu's face showed a hint of doubt. Why did Xuan Lan call Master "Qiu'er"? Why did Master want to study demonic cultivation? Why would Master be punished by Heaven for studying this?

A series of questions swirled in Gu Yu's mind, but he didn't know where to begin.

...

This time, Qiao Qiu hadn't seen Xuan Lan for three months. Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer and went to find someone—Wei Ya.

There was nothing she could do; she spent all her time in Shangqing Palace, and in the entire Immortal Realm, apart from Xuanlan and her own disciple, she only knew Wei Ya.

Wei Ya lived quite far from Shangqing Palace, and it took Qiao Qiu half a day to find his barbecue restaurant.

Recalling when Xuanlan brought her here before, it took almost the blink of an eye. This is probably the difference between a Xuanxian and a Divine Venerable.

Qiao Qiu felt ashamed; the sudden shift from a top student to a poor student was incredibly disheartening.

Wei Ya is still running his barbecue restaurant, but there are still not many people coming to eat barbecue there.

He looked at Qiao Qiu with a child, raised an eyebrow, and smiled, "Don't tell me he's your and Xuan Lan's child."

"No, he is my disciple, Gu Yu." After answering that question, Qiao Qiu went straight to the question she most wanted to ask, "Wei Ya, I want to ask you, has Xuan Lan come to your place?"

Wei Ya nodded, "I've been here before."

Qiao Qiu's eyes lit up. "Then do you know where he went?"

"You're his wife, how would I know if you don't know?" Wei Ya teased with a smile, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

"Just because you're his best buddy, when he has something he can't tell his wife, he'll definitely turn to his buddy." Qiao Qiu raised an eyebrow.

Gu Yu frowned slightly, looking at Wei Ya, unsure whether she should speak.

At this moment, Wei Ya saw the exquisitely carved little jade and had an idea. She said, "If you pawn your apprentice here, I will tell you where your husband is."

"Tell me if you want, or don't." Qiao Qiu took Gu Yu's hand and turned to leave.

"Hey, hey, you left so decisively!" Wei Ya didn't expect her to leave so abruptly. She couldn't help but feel sorry for her friend. In his wife's heart, he wasn't as important as his apprentice.

Qiao Qiu stopped, turned to look at him, and said seriously, "My disciple is my disciple. I will not exchange him for anything, not even news of Xuan Lan. If he is really gone, at worst, we will die together."

"You really do like to get stuck on things." Wei Ya shook her head, her delicate and beautiful face full of helplessness. "I was just joking, but you actually took it seriously. It's true that you want your apprentice to stay with me, but it's not that you're using him as collateral; I'll take care of him for you."

"What do you mean?" Qiao Qiu asked.

“Xuanlan’s location is quite dangerous, and it’s not convenient for you to bring a child with you.” Wei Ya came out from behind the barbecue stall, walked up to Qiao Qiu, and assured her, “Don’t worry, when you come back, I will definitely return to you a disciple who has gained a lot of weight.”

Qiao Qiu then realized that she had misunderstood him and felt a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."

"No, I want to stay with Master." Gu Yu was terrified when she thought of Qiao Qiu's near-death experience, and her attitude was very firm.

“Gu Yu…” Qiao Qiu frowned, somewhat regretting telling him those things.

Wei Ya glanced at Gu Yu, then looked at Qiao Qiu, raised her hand and said, "I know you're in a difficult position, leave it to me."

After saying that, he pulled Gu Yu aside, covered his face with his hand, and whispered in his ear, "Silly boy, I lied to your master. Your master's father disappeared for so long because he went to practice weapon crafting. Now he has probably finished practicing. I left you here so that you wouldn't go anywhere and ruin the relationship between your master and your master's father."

Gu Yu looked at him, "Really?"

Wei Ya nodded. "Really."

Gu Yu looked back at his master with some hesitation. He couldn't trust this person, but he was also his master's best friend. His master was a very reliable person and wouldn't make such an unreliable friend.

“Your master’s father is the most powerful person in the Upper Immortal Realm. He can treat the most powerful lightning tribulation in the Nine Heavens as nothing. Think about it, what is there that he can’t solve? Even if there is real danger, he will definitely save your master. Besides, there is none at all.” Wei Ya continued to persuade him.

Gu Yu looked away and turned to him. "Alright, I'll believe you for now."

Wei Ya breathed a sigh of relief. Why was this family so difficult to persuade? Did he really have to talk himself hoarse?

Gu Yu walked up to Qiao Qiu, looked at her and said, "Master, you go ahead, I'll wait for you to come back here."

Qiao Qiu patted his head. "Good Gu Yu, I will definitely come back to pick you up in a couple of days."

Gu Yu nodded emphatically.

Wei Ya laughed dismissively. Two days? You're kidding. In his estimation, it would take at least two months.

Qiao Qiu looked at Wei Ya and said, "Tell me where he is."

Wei Ya took out two bracelets, simple and elegant silver bracelets with cloud-patterned openwork, and a faint light shimmering on them. He gave one of them to Qiao Qiu and said, "Wear this one, and then put the first drop of blood on it. Gu Yu wears the other one."

Qiao Qiu and Gu Yu looked at him, holding the bracelets, their eyes simultaneously filled with questions.

Wei Ya explained, "This is called the 'Concentric Chain.' The flashing light on it means the other person wearing the bracelet is alright. This chain can only be removed when the two people are about a foot apart. You can take it off when the time comes. The reason for asking you to drip your blood is to record your breath, so you can feel at ease about each other, right?"

"Thank you."

Qiao Qiu and his apprentice thanked him in unison, then dripped a drop of blood onto the surface. (For the latest chapters, please visit Tangkexing - mobile address: [link to mobile website])
