Can I come along?
Meng Shu exclaimed in surprise.
Ao Qian gave him a cold look.
This time, it wasn't just a warning look; Aoqian directly said, "What trouble are you going to cause!"
Meng Shu immediately fell silent.
Song Xi frowned slightly. "Speak properly. How did Prince Meng Shu cause trouble?"
"Meng Shu, tell her, will you cause trouble?" Ao Qian ignored Song Xiwei and glanced at Meng Shu instead.
Meng Shu felt a chill run down his spine. How could he be so ungrateful as to speak recklessly? He could only shake his head.
"Go back to your room and stay there. Don't wander around unless necessary," Ao Qian said.
"Yes, yes." Meng Shu lowered his head and slunk back to his room.
Song Xiwei was extremely helpless. "What trouble could he cause if he were with us? You just didn't want to bring him along, and you're making excuses to blame him."
Aoqian's face darkened. "You're right, I just don't want to bring him along."
Song Xiwei was a little annoyed, "Why are you being so petty!"
"I'm not as magnanimous as you. You've traveled all the way to this godforsaken place, Sheng Kingdom, for him. Why should I go with you and bring his unnecessary person along?" Aoqian was also furious.
The two of them went downstairs in a huff.
As soon as I got downstairs, I ran into a lot of town residents who had gathered at the inn.
"Lord Song! Please accept our bow! We can finally rest easy knowing you are well!"
Suddenly, many people knelt in front of her. Song Xiwei looked at Aoqian, who calmly said, "Since you rescued these people and they learned that your life or death was uncertain, they have been guarding this place every day. They want to see what they can do for you."
Song Xi smiled slightly, moved by these people. "What are you doing? Get up. I only helped you with a small favor. So many of you kneeling before me is too much for me..."
"It wasn't a small favor, Song Engong. You almost got into trouble trying to save us..."
"That's right, that's right. Lord Song is truly selfless and compassionate..."
Song Xiwei accepted their gratitude and told them that she was fine and that they should go back and rest.
After everyone dispersed, Song Xiwei kept her head down, and Aoqian handed her a handkerchief.
Song Xi looked up in slight confusion, her vision a little blurry.
“I didn’t mean to cry. I just felt so good. Thank goodness those people were saved. They were all living people who almost lost their lives to the merciless flood.”
Song Xiwei considers herself a strong person, but when lives are at stake, she still experiences significant emotional fluctuations.
Especially these simple, ordinary people, each of them is so fragile; a rain shower or an illness can take their lives.
If I hadn't met my master back then, and had been left alone and destitute after my country was destroyed and my family perished, I would probably no longer exist in this world if I were just an ordinary mortal. Because mortals are truly too insignificant in the vast Six Realms.
Aoqian neither urged nor interrupted Song Xiwei.
I let her cry silently for a while, and then waited for her to calm down and wipe away her tears.
She said, "I'd like to go to Hetina, is that alright?"
He spoke in a conciliatory tone, thinking that Aoqian would definitely not agree, after all, he had almost gotten into trouble there.
To everyone's surprise, Aoqian actually agreed.
“Okay, let’s go,” he said.
The two arrived at the riverbank. The last time they came here, because of that strange rain, many people were in the river waiting to be rescued, and Song Xiwei was in a state of confusion.
Arriving here now, I discovered many clues.
For example, there is an inconspicuous key point in the formation at a certain location on the riverbank.
Song Xiwei discovered it, and Aoqian naturally discovered it as well.
But none of them were discovered last time; they were discovered today.
As the two approached, Song Xi stared intently at the strange array core runes, pondering why the runes looked so unfamiliar.
Ao Qian said, "This is a Demon Refining Array."
"A demonic formation?" Song Xi asked.
Ao Qian nodded, "Yes, it's a forbidden technique of the Demon Clan, extremely insidious and difficult to control."
