Song Xiwei stared at Ao Qian for a moment without saying anything, but then used the secret technique of sound transmission to contact Xiao Zhuang again.
This time, Xiao Zhuang finally responded.
"Xiao Zhuang, what happened?"
Xiao Zhuang, panting, said, "Miss Yuan Qi is about to give birth. I had no choice but to take her to a safe place to deliver. She told me there's a secret passage in the Dragon Bone Altar. I was going to send you a telepathic message, but I couldn't manage at the time. I also trusted myself to handle it, so I didn't bother you. However, to prevent any problems, I left some fluorescent powder in the cellar, but I don't think we'll need it. Miss Yuan Qi and I are in a safe place now. How about you, Sister Wei? Is everything going smoothly?"
Hearing Xiao Zhuang's report, Song Xi breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that everyone was alright. "Come and meet me after you've settled Miss Yuan Qi in. But if there's any crisis, be sure to contact me immediately. Don't act on your own!"
"Okay, Sister Wei, don't worry, I'll meet up with you soon!"
After the telepathic message ended, Aoqian glanced at Song Xiwei's expression and knew she wouldn't be going back.
Aoqian asked calmly, "Should we wait for them?"
Song Xi shook her head slightly: "No need. Let's leave this place first!"
Ao Qian seemed somewhat surprised by Song Xiwei's actions. "Weren't you just in a hurry to go back and meet them? Now you're relieved to let them stay here?"
Song Xi raised an eyebrow and stared intently at Ao Qian. "Young Master is acting strangely. Before, you seemed completely indifferent to the lives of others, but now you seem quite concerned about their safety!"
"I just felt that Song Xiwei, you have the well-being of the people at heart. At this critical moment, you actually left them and me first. I was a little surprised that you would do this."
Song Xiwei rolled her eyes at Aoqian's words.
She thought to herself, speechless, "Isn't that all because of you, Young Master who loves to cause trouble! This Dragon Bone Branch Altar was almost completely destroyed by you. Now that we've finally found an exit to get rid of you, of course it's best to leave as soon as possible!"
As for Xiao Zhuang, Song Xiwei believed that Xiao Zhuang was reliable and wouldn't cause her too much worry.
She mentally grumbled at Aoqian, but on her face, Song Xiwei put on a "Young Master, you are the most important person" expression and said to Aoqian, "It's true that I care about the common people, but right now, you are more important than the common people! Look at you, your clothes are all wrinkled, and you were holding me just now. You must have worked so hard!"
With a fawning smile, Song Xiwei smoothed out the wrinkles on Aoqian's clothes and said, "When we get to the mortal realm, I'll treat you to something delicious!"
Aoqian glanced at Song Xiwei's hands flailing around on his body, his clothes becoming increasingly wrinkled from her actions.
Aoqian suddenly found her rather amusing; sometimes she seemed thoughtful and meticulous, while at other times she was quite carefree and easygoing.
Seeing that Aoqian had no other intentions, Song Xiwei breathed a slight sigh of relief. She then recited an incantation, and when she opened her palm, there was a bamboo leaf in it.
With a flick of her wrist, the bamboo leaf transformed into a boat as it fell to the sea.
Song Xiwei reached out and put her arm around Aoqian's waist, then led him onto the boat.
Looking up at the cliff leading to the exit of the secret passage, one sees layers upon layers of mountains and seas of clouds, even more beautiful than a painting.
"Young Master, look, that's where we came down from. Looking up like this, the scenery there is truly beautiful! We didn't even realize it when we were up there!"
After Song Xiwei finished speaking, she realized that although Aoqian was looking in the direction of the mountain forest, his mind was elsewhere, and he gave people the feeling of being absent-minded and deep in thought.
