After the senior brothers and sisters left, Chen Sangruo also walked out of the cave and headed towards the sect leader's hall.

During this time, in her spare time while practicing the spell of separating the soul, she also did something else.

—Beat the black mist surrounding her nascent soul.

Beat him when he's annoyed, and beat him when he's happy.

Let her flames chase and burn the black mist.

Her original intention was to try to eliminate the black mist, but the black mist not only moved fast, but its vitality was also comparable to that of a cockroach.

Just like the original demon of Cliff Waves, as long as even a tiny bit remains, it will reappear the next day, making it impossible to eliminate.

However, after her "love-induced transformation," Hei Wu is now incredibly obedient and dares not misbehave at all.

This is completely different from the black mist that was once ambitious and wanted to attack her Nascent Soul.

Even when she scanned it with her divine sense, the black mist would wag its tail at her, fawning over her.

Shen Sanruo had no doubt that if the black mist could speak, it would definitely bark at her.

Shen Sangruo: ...

Who adjusted the black fog like this?

Oh, I forgot, it's her.

She calmly withdrew her divine sense and arrived at the sect leader's hall, stepping inside.

Both Wuwei Daoren and Changli Xianjun were in the sect leader's hall.

"Sect Master Wuwei, Master." She bowed respectfully, then looked at Immortal Lord Changli, "Master has emerged from seclusion?"

During this period, Immortal Lord Changli spent his time either instructing his five disciples or in seclusion cultivating.

"Hmm, I just arrived myself." His expression seemed to be hiding something, but he still asked her first, "Do you have important business in the Sect Master's Hall?"

"I want to try to extract the souls of the Wuwei Sect Master and my master to increase my chances of catching Bai Mumu's evil spirit," Shen Sangruo explained her purpose simply.

The Taoist Master Wuwei said, "Your master and I are both free these days. Come find us when you want to practice, and we will assist you."

"That would be perfect. Sang Ruo thanks the sect leader and master." She clasped her hands in a fist salute once more.

After standing up, her gaze fell on Immortal Lord Changli, sweeping over his tightly clenched hands. She frowned slightly and spoke:

"Master doesn't look well. Could something have happened?"

The appearance of Immortal Lord Changli in the sect hall is very likely also for this matter.

He made no attempt to hide anything, and said with a sigh, "It's not that this immortal lord has something to do."

"What is that?"

"It's Qingluan." Changli Immortal Lord's helpless tone was tinged with concern.

Hearing that it wasn't Immortal Lord Changli, Chen Sanruo's heart still didn't settle down. "Immortal Princess Qingluan? What happened to her?"

"It's nothing, I just haven't been able to get in touch with her lately." He sighed deeply again, his voice filled with sorrow. "She didn't even come to the last apprenticeship ceremony."

Shen Sangruo understood. Indeed, if Qingluan Fairy had really encountered an accident, how could her master still be sitting here lamenting the passing of spring and autumn?

I guess they've been itching to go looking for him for a while now.

I felt a little more relaxed.

"Master, when was the last time Fairy Qingluan sent a message?"

"During the apprenticeship ceremony, all I heard was that she was busy and would send you your gift later," Immortal Lord Changli replied.

"It's been several months now," Chen Sangruo said, stroking her chin thoughtfully.

Immortal Lord Changli rested his chin on his hand, looking dejected. "Yes, so much time has passed."

Her gaze fell on his worried face, and she couldn't help but tease him, "I think Master has eaten too many red beans."

Immortal Lord Changli: "?"

"Longing."

Immortal Lord Changli: ...

After a moment of silence, Immortal Lord Changli smirked and said, "This doesn't sound like anything good."

"Don't worry about the details, as long as the meaning is conveyed." Shen Sanruo waved her hand and continued with a smile, "Master just hasn't seen Qingluan Fairy for too long and misses her."

"Don't talk nonsense. What do you mean by 'want' or 'don't want'? I'm just worried that something might have happened to her since she hasn't sent any messages for a long time." Immortal Lord Changli's eyes darted away.

"Oh~ then why did Fairy Qingluan insist on sending a message to Master?" Chen Sangruo asked with a smile, staring at Immortal Lord Changli. "Who is Master to Fairy Qingluan?"

"I am her..."

Immortal Lord Changli immediately wanted to refute, but he was so anxious that he forgot to refer to himself. After saying it, he couldn't come up with anything else for a long time.

"Who are you to her?" Wuwei Daoren stroked his beard, a broad smile on his face.

Meeting the two people's expectant gazes, he realized he had been tricked.

He cleared his throat and feigned composure, saying, "Ahem, this immortal lord has known her for many years. Isn't it perfectly normal for me to care about her?"

"Keeping in touch is perfectly normal, isn't it?"

"If you dare to set a trap for your master again, be careful that I will set a trap for you too, so that you will not be able to guard against it."

Immortal Lord Changli pointed at her nose, looking quite exasperated after being exposed.

"Haven't Master dug enough pits for me? Even when he sent me to find Fairy Qingluan, it was a huge trap." Shen Sanruo pouted, not afraid of Immortal Lord Changli's threats at all.

"You stole someone else's Spirit Rhinoceros Pearl and then made me use it as a token to meet Fairy Qingluan, ugh~" Her tone was extremely disdainful.

Immortal Lord Changli lost face. "I told you it was taking, not stealing. That's too harsh a way of putting it."

"Oh right, the Spirit Rhinoceros Pearl." Immortal Lord Changli's eyes lit up as he took out the Spirit Rhinoceros Pearl.

It was the very one that Shen Sangri took to Fengyue Lingxu back then.

Her voice was filled with doubt, "Wasn't this Spirit Rhinoceros Pearl already returned to Fairy Qingluan?"

"Later, Qingluan personally gave it to me as compensation for hitting me. You see, I already said it was taken, not stolen. In the end, it still obediently came to my hands."

Immortal Lord Changli stood tall, while Chen Sangruo inexplicably saw the two idiots at the entrance of the next village.

He was quite proud even after being beaten up by the Azure Phoenix Fairy.

He explained, "There are two Spirit Rhinoceros Beads in total. The two people who possess the Spirit Rhinoceros Beads can contact each other through the Spirit Rhinoceros Beads, no matter where the other person is."

The saying "Though we lack the wings of a phoenix to fly together, our hearts are connected by a single thread of understanding" perfectly describes this Spirit Rhinoceros Pearl.

Clearly, the other Spirit Rhinoceros Pearl is on Fairy Qingluan.

Shen Sanruo couldn't help but sigh at Qingluan Fairy's painstaking efforts.

It's likely that the last time the Spirit Pearl was "stolen," it was an opportunity she deliberately created for her master.

In the end, her master reluctantly sent her back, no wonder Qingluan Fairy was so angry at the time.

So it turns out the reason they were angry wasn't because the Spirit Bead was stolen.

"I should have thought of that sooner, my disciple. You have done your master a great favor." Immortal Lord Changli's smile widened.

Hmm, Shen Sangri thinks she looks more like Er Shazi now.

“I understand, this is called being overly concerned and losing control.” The Taoist Master Wuwei nodded, as if he understood the meaning deeply.

"Wuwei, are you here to cause trouble too? You old fool, you've never even held a girl's hand since you were a kid, what do you know?"

Wuwei Daoren: ...

"I'm not going to tell you anymore, this Immortal Lord is going to send a message to Qingluan." Immortal Lord Changli happily poured spiritual power into the Spirit Rhinoceros Pearl.
