Qi Yu curled her lips into a smile and said, "After I left the Spiritual Academy in Martial City, I was unable to contact him again... Didn't he lose his memory?"
“Ah, I think that since you take such good care of His Highness the Prince, you must know his current location,” Fenxin said. “In that case, I’ll send more people to search for him.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned to leave.
Qi Yu suddenly asked, "Do you know where the Demon God is?"
Burning Heart suddenly stopped, a hint of surprise flashing in his blood-red eyes, "Does Your Excellency know the location of Master?"
"I don't know."
Burning Heart instantly regained its usual calm demeanor.
Qi Yu said, "You don't even know the location where Qi Yan is sealed, how can you awaken him?"
Burning Heart said calmly, "Once the gate to the Demon Realm opens, my lord will be awakened by the overwhelming demonic energy. At that time, I will have my own way to find him."
Her eyes were glazed over as she murmured, "Master... it won't be long. Burning Heart will be able to rescue you soon."
Qi Yu: "..."
Once the gates to the Demon Realm open, the Boundless Continent will likely be doomed.
She was internally shaking the system frantically. How could the female lead have deteriorated to this extent? How could she possibly retire in peace like this?!
The system weakly replied like a quail: "Host, at this point, the system has no other choice. How about this: you quickly try to accumulate enough points, and the system will teleport you back as soon as possible."
Qi Yu: "..."
She could simply leave.
But what about the rest?
What will they do?
Qi Yu remained silent for a long time. Seeing that she didn't speak, Fen Xin quietly left with the puppet, the Blazing Sun Immortal Venerable.
After a long pause, Qi Yu suddenly said, "Come out."
It was quiet all around, with no sound.
Qi Yu crossed his arms and said, "You've been eavesdropping for so long, aren't you going to come out and see me?"
Suddenly, a figure gracefully arrived.
The young man was tall and thin, with his left eye covered by an eye patch, his hair loose and unbound, and he had a strong scholarly air about him.
He nodded slightly to Qi Yu and said, "Fairy, we meet again."
Before Qi Yu, on the system panel that others couldn't see, the small dot marking Yi Xiangfeng had suddenly moved from the old house in Wucheng to her side.
She raised an eyebrow, looked Yi Xiangfeng up and down a few times, and then asked, "Two more?"
A low laugh came from behind, followed by a slightly choked sob...
"elder sister."
Qi Yu stiffened, turned around, and saw two figures, one tall and one short, dressed in red.
Both of them had crimson headbands covering their foreheads.
One is Zhu Que, who is waving a fan and smiling mysteriously.
The other one... was Gou Dan, whose eyes were red and swollen with tears.
Gou Dan looked at her, choking back tears, and said, "Sister...you, you don't want me anymore..."
Qi Yu swallowed hard and said, "Cough, Gou Dan, when did I ever stop wanting you?"
With tears in his eyes, Gou Dan said aggrievedly, "You haven't come to see me at all."
Qi Yu was sweating profusely with guilt. Feeling uneasy under Gou Dan's gaze, she said, "I don't even know your location. I tried to contact you using the communication jade, but you didn't reply. I can't find you at all."
Even the Blood Fiend Cult's Holy Maiden, Fen Xin, with her spies everywhere, couldn't find Gou Dan. It's perfectly normal that she couldn't find him either!
Gou Dan seemed to be convinced, staring at Qi Yu expectantly, and stopped talking.
Qi Yu then looked at Yi Xiangfeng again, waved his hand to set up a barrier to prevent outsiders from eavesdropping, and asked, "Young Master Yi, what brings you here?"
She hadn't forgotten the mysterious, enigmatic words Yi Xiangfeng had uttered back then.
Yi Xiangfeng said gently, "Fairy, a few days ago I cast another divination and noticed a change in the hexagram, so I came to find you."
"What changes?"
Yi Xiangfeng remained silent.
Qi Yu understood that this was something he couldn't express, so he asked, "Is it good or bad?"
Yi Xiangfeng pondered for a moment, then said, "Alright."
Qi Yu felt relieved. She then turned her gaze to Zhu Que and asked, "What brings Prince Zhu here this time?"
Zhu Que raised an eyebrow and said, "It's been a long time since I last saw you, and Little Qi Yu seems to have become distant from me."
Qi Yu rolled her eyes at him and said, "Speak quickly, don't waste my time."
Zhu Que stopped joking and looked at Yi Xiangfeng, his meaning clear.
These words are not to be heeded by Yi Xiangfeng.
Qi Yu then waved his hand and created another barrier to block out the sound of their conversation, saying, "That's enough, he can't hear you now."
Zhu Que then closed his folding fan and said, "Little Qi Yu, do you now know what that jade pendant Gou Dan gave you back then was?"
He spoke casually, as if he was certain that Qi Yu didn't know.
"Oh. The Vermilion Bird Token."
"You don't know, do you? Then I'll... um?" Zhu Que paused, looked at Qi Yu, and asked in confusion, "Little Qi Yu, how did you know?"
Qi Yu chuckled and said, "Is that so hard to know?"
I'm sorry, but actually she's someone who got in through connections.
Zhu Que poked Gou Dan's head with the end of his fan and asked, "Did you tell her?"
Gou Dan said, bewildered, "I had no idea what it was at the time."
After saying that, he looked at Qi Yu and said seriously, "Sister, the Vermilion Bird Token is very important. You must keep it safe."
He looked impatient with Zhu Que, but blinked his big eyes at Qi Yu with a serious expression; their attitudes were like those of two different people.
Zhu Que: "..."
That heartless brat, he was the one who spent a lot of money to buy medicine to cure his dementia, and now he's all over Qi Yu, fawning over her.
Qi Yu said, "I know the Vermilion Bird Token is very important, and I will definitely not allow the gate to the Demon Realm to be opened. Don't worry."
Hearing Qi Yu's words and seeing the aura of a Tribulation Transcending cultivator around her, Zhu Que felt relieved.
With Qi Yu at the Tribulation Transcending stage and the last phoenix in the world, they are probably the ceiling of combat power on the Boundless Continent.
Having confirmed that the Vermilion Bird Token would not fall into the hands of those with ulterior motives, Zhu Que said no more, and forcibly dragged Gou Dan, who refused to leave, away.
"Let's go, let's go. Can't you see they're busy?"
Dog Egg waved to Qi Yu reluctantly at the end and said, "Sister, come visit Dog Egg when you have time!"
Before he could finish speaking, he and Zhu Que were teleported away by a teleportation talisman.
Qi Yu also breathed a sigh of relief.
She removed the barrier, but Yi Xiangfeng was still standing nearby.
Qi Yu pondered the words Yi Xiangfeng had spoken back then, and suddenly asked, "Young Master Yi, what is your relationship with the Merfolk?"
Yi Xiangfeng's expression changed slightly, then he suddenly realized and said, "I am a hybrid of human and merman."
Qi Yu looked at the eye covered by the blindfold and said, "Can I see your eye?"
Yi Xiangfeng remained silent for a while before removing his blindfold.
A pair of deep blue, gentle eyes appeared before Qi Yu.
She looked thoughtfully at the eye, carefully recalling the information she had found in the Flying Star Sect's Scripture Pavilion over the past few days.
The Merfolk are a type of demonic beast that have lived for generations on the vast ocean. They are powerful, have long lifespans, are intelligent, and despise humans.
The most amazing thing is...
Merfolk possess the ability to foresee the future.
