Aoqian did not keep Song Xiwei waiting for long.
When Song Xiwei saw Ao Qian, she was very surprised: "You want to come with me?"
Aoqian's actions would lead Song Xiwei to mistakenly believe that he had rushed back specifically for this matter.
“This person is strange,” Ao Qian said, still uneasy. “Let’s switch places.”
"Swap?" Song Xiwei didn't react.
Aoqian explained, "I become your appearance, and you become my form."
"..." That sounds quite novel.
"What's wrong? Is it too much of a hardship for you to wear my face?" Seeing that Song Xiwei didn't agree immediately, Aoqian was a little unhappy. "You clearly said before that you liked my face and praised me for being good-looking. You were just saying it..."
"No, I didn't mean that. I'm just really curious. Swapping is great! I agree!" Song Xiwei quickly explained.
Aoqian's expression softened. "Then, let's begin."
Ao Qian cast a spell on the black gemstone crown on Song Xiwei's head.
Song Xiwei took out the hairpin, cast a spell on it, and handed it to Aoqian.
They both saw their own reflection in each other's eyes.
Song Xiwei found it very strange. It turned out that she was actually quite good-looking. It was just that her outer appearance was that of a man, but her inner self was Aoqian.
Aoqian's expression changed, and his demeanor also changed when he changed his appearance.
In Aoqian's eyes, Song Xiwei was the same.
Aoqian always knew he was exceptionally handsome, but he never actually possessed any real beauty.
It wasn't until then that he saw Song Xiwei wearing his own face.
Perhaps it's because Song Xiwei's expressions are so rich that her face is imbued with a lively spirit.
Aoqian and Song Xiwei stared at each other, so engrossed in their gaze that they forgot to blink.
However, there were times when the two of them couldn't help but laugh so hard they were pounding their chests in frustration when they saw each other's faces.
Because when you look at someone's face and call out their name, it feels like you're talking to yourself.
However, both of them are highly adaptable.
Upon arriving at the appointed place, Song Xiwei had already assumed the identity of Aoqian, and Aoqian also regarded himself as Song Xiwei.
Lian Ce was somewhat mysterious; he didn't come to greet them personally, but instead sent someone.
Song Xiwei did not take it to heart.
She exchanged a glance with Aoqian, who then nodded to her.
Originally, I didn't have many concerns about coming to the appointment alone, but now that I'm with Aoqian, this is actually the only time in the past two years that I've attended such an occasion with Aoqian.
Perhaps they were overthinking it; the other party had been rescued by Aoqian not long ago and had also interacted with Song Xiwei in the past.
But what Aoqian said—that we must be on guard—is not wrong.
The cultivation world and the human world are now in great chaos.
Some things are really hard to say.
Our relationship used to be alright, but it's hard to guarantee that things won't change for various reasons.
In short, caution is paramount; Song Xiwei did not want to cause trouble due to her momentary carelessness.
Lian Ce arranged for people to take Song Xiwei and Ao Qian to a tavern.
The tavern looked very quiet from the outside, with no one else around.
But red lanterns hung at the entrance of the tavern, and the sound of wind instruments filled the air inside.
Song Xiwei and Aoqian exchanged a glance and went inside.
Upon entering, one sees Lian Ce giving instructions to a large group of beautiful women and men behind him.
Upon hearing the announcement, Lian Ce turned around and saw Song Xiwei and Ao Qian. He quickly walked over to them and greeted them in turn: "Brother Song, how have you been?"
After nodding to Aoqian, Lian Ce looked at Song Xiwei and said gratefully, "My benefactor, I didn't have a chance to repay your life-saving grace last time. I didn't expect you and Brother Song to come together. This is the perfect opportunity for me to repay your kindness."
Because Song Xiwei and Aoqian switched identities, Lian Ce's current address of "benefactor" is entirely directed at Song Xiwei.
Song Xiwei, wearing Ao Qian's face, harbored some doubts about Lian Ce.
Did Lian Ce really not know that the person who saved him was the Demon Lord Aoqian?
Still playing dumb...
