The moonlight finally broke free from the clouds and scattered down.

On the small path, Yan Huailiu was shaking the cage floating in the air and walking towards Changqing Temple.

There was also a little demon next to him that smelled of fish.

Yan Huailiu nodded in understanding as the little demon introduced him: "So you were originally a koi?"

"Yes." Xiao Yao raised her chin proudly: "I am the most beautiful in my clan!"

Yan Huailiu took a glance and thought, "Oh, I didn't realize that. She's not as handsome as his apprentice."

"So there is a little koi in your belly?" Yan Huailiu asked like a curious baby.

The little demon blinked his eyes and said, "I don't know, but it's definitely not fish roe, because I can't throw it out when it's time to throw it out."

Yan Huailiu: ...

Thank you. He just likes to communicate with this kind of mentally abnormal little demon. He doesn't care whether he says something wrong or not, because this kind of little demon's words are full of thunder!

He didn't know how to complain.

"My lord, let me help you carry the cage. It's inconvenient for you to float like this." The little demon suggested with a blink of his eyes.

Yan Huailiu moved the cage further away: "No need, I can take it."

From a distance, I could see Gu Xingyun standing in the barrier with a confused look on his face.

Yan Huailiu suddenly stopped, put his hands together, turned around and bowed three times to the little demon next to him, almost scaring the little demon to death.

"Immortal Lord? What are you doing?"

"Well, nothing." Yan Huailiu pretended to be calm and walked forward.

What a joke, this is a koi!

Or a koi that has cultivated into a human body!

It’s definitely more auspicious!

He is not superstitious, he just wants to make a wish.

"Cough cough, Master?" Gu Xingyun was so weak that he couldn't help coughing as soon as the barrier was removed.

Yan Huailiu hummed and reached out to check on him.

Very good, I won’t die for the time being.

Gu Xingyun's attention was firmly attracted by the figure of the woman not far away, and he even ignored the strange-shaped cage hanging above his head.

The sour taste couldn't be suppressed: "Master, who is she?"

Yan Huailiu reached out and pulled him up: "It's not important, let's go, I'll take you back to the inn to rest."

Gu Xingyun staggered twice, then fell directly onto Yan Huailiu. He stopped pretending and glanced fiercely in the direction of the woman: "Master, I can't leave."

As he wished, Yan Huailiu put his arm around his waist and supported him as he walked in a protective manner: "It's okay, I'll support you. If you feel uncomfortable, I can let you float like this cage."

He had only figured out tonight how to flexibly utilize his abilities, and was worried about not having a test subject.

His eyes sparkled as he looked at Gu Xingyun: "Why don't you try? I'm very steady and I will definitely not let you fall or get hurt."

He hasn't tried to levitate a living person yet.

Gu Xingyun practically stuck to him, his expression indifferent: "Master, I'm afraid of heights."

"Oh, forget it." Yan Huailiu's eyes were full of disappointment.

Gu Xingyun pretended not to see it.

As soon as he walked out of the protection area of ​​Changqing Temple, the little demon immediately came to meet him.

"My Lord Immortal, are you going to take me back with you?"

Gu Xingyun coughed twice and moved his face closer to Yan Huailiu's neck. The sound was very soft, but it was loud enough for the man and the demon present to hear clearly.

"Master, this smell is so bad. I feel uncomfortable. Ahem..."

As delicate as a small white flower.

Without thinking, Yan Huailiu used his spiritual energy to isolate him from the smell. He put his hand on his head and pulled him into his arms, looking like a real protective child.

At the same time, he did not forget to instruct the little demon seriously: "Hongli, you stay here for now. I will come to find you tomorrow. Also, don't even think about running away. I have left a mark on you. No matter where you run to, I will find you."

The little demon blinked her eyes, very innocently: "Then you must come tomorrow, we have an appointment, I won't run away, you haven't helped me find a husband yet."

After she finished speaking, she looked towards the cage reluctantly, then turned and ran towards the river.

Yan Huailiu breathed a sigh of relief and supported Gu Xingyun as they walked slowly.

"What mark did Master leave on her?"

Gu Xingyun suddenly asked.

"I lied to her. There's nothing. I didn't want her to run around and cause trouble."

Gu Xingyun's mood suddenly improved and his tone became much softer.

"Master, what's in this cage? Did you save me?"

He still remembered how he was swept away by the evil energy and struggled desperately but still couldn't break free.

That feeling of powerlessness made him very uncomfortable.

"I guess so. This is the monster that has been wreaking havoc in the town for a while now. I let you be abducted by it out of carelessness. I won't do it again next time."

Yan Huailiu tapped his finger in the air, and the cage tied with iron chains became a little more transparent, and the black figure lying inside gradually became clearer.

"Here, this is it. Let's trap it first and then release it for questioning when daybreak."

Gu Xingyun was silent for a long time, his eyes lowered, watching the ribbons that were about to get tangled as the two people walked.

He doesn't care about monsters or not.

"I thought that Master would remember something after seeing the Grandmaster, and then he would hate me as much as before."

Gu Xingyun's hand hanging by his side quietly grabbed the ribbon blown by the wind.

This kind of frank and straightforward communication was easy for Yan Huailiu to accept. He almost immediately replied, "I did remember something, but don't worry, I won't hate you."

Not yet, not until he completes his mission, absolutely not.

All he could think about now was how to please these young disciples. It wasn't enough for him to improve their favorability, so how could he show disgust?

As for after completing the mission...

Yan Huailiu's eyes were a little confused, as if this was the first time he was thinking about this.

What will happen to Gu Xingyun and the others after he completes his mission and leaves?

Now that he is gone, will his original self come back?

What happens after you come back?

Assuming that he completed the task at that time and changed the fate of several apprentices, he still could not change the original body's attitude.

Will the world continue after he's gone?

Does this place really exist?

Yan Huailiu's expression changed several times but none of them escaped Gu Xingyun's eyes. The latter just watched silently without making any sound.

The hand hanging on Yan Huailiu's shoulder was suddenly grabbed with great force, and then pinched several times.

Yan Huailiu's expression was as if he was sleepwalking, and he slowly uttered a few words: "Soft, hot."

Gu Xingyun frowned: "Master."

Yan Huailiu stopped and looked outside the inn not far away. The lights left specially for them were emitting a faint light.

"Gu Xingyun."

Yan Huailiu put his hand down and supported him so that they could stand face to face.

His expression was extremely serious, as if he was doing some academic research.

"Gu Xingyun, do you really exist?"
