"Since you are so sincere, there is no need to wait until tomorrow. I need your help right now."
He Song had already stood up, his back slightly bent, his hands clasped together as he bowed towards Ning Wan, and he spoke seriously, "Senior Sister Ning, please speak."
Although he didn't know what it was, he didn't intend to go back on his word.
Even if he had to tie up Senior Brother Shen and give him to her, he would be willing to give it a try.
Looking at He Song's extremely stiff hand in mid-air, Ning Wan opened her mouth again, "Don't worry, I won't let you go through fire and water. I just want you to bring this fox back to your senior brother alone, and don't tell anyone else about my rescue today."
"If they ask, you can say that you accidentally broke the spirit trap and brought the fox out with you."
After saying this, He Song straightened up without being able to control his emotions and opened his mouth subconsciously: "Why?"
"Why so many whys? Don't you want to repay the favor?"
"I only have this one request. If you can do it, we'll be even. From now on, just focus on your cultivation."
The ruthless way is not only ruthless, but more often it is also a bit unreasonable. The twists and turns in it will make ordinary people feel troubled.
Today, He Song seemed to be just saying it casually and admitting it casually, but when the time comes to face the calamity, it will not be so simple.
This is also the reason why Deputy Sect Leader Wu Hui has been staying in the lower realm. It’s not that he doesn’t want to, but because he has some concerns and promises that have not yet been fulfilled.
He Song felt unhappy when he heard Ning Wan say this. As Wu Hui's disciple, he naturally thought of that aspect, plus Ning Wan's advice.
For a moment, He Song became more certain of Ning Wan's intention, but if he knew, he would feel even more uncomfortable.
He previously thought that the disciples of Tianyan Sect protected Ning Wan only because of her identity as the sect leader's daughter, and ignored too many things. Now that he thinks about it carefully, Senior Sister Ning did nothing wrong. She just did not inherit the sect leader's talent for cultivation, that's all.
"Senior Sister Ning, I promise you, but what I said just now still counts."
He Song spoke very seriously, his eyes burning, then he picked up the fox and put it into the storage ring.
Ning Wan nodded slightly, "You go ahead and don't mention that you've seen me to anyone else."
Finally, He Song was reminded again. He looked at Ning Wan, who was not joking, and nodded after hesitating for a moment.
Senior Sister Ning was talking about others, so Senior Brother Shen must not be someone else in Senior Sister Ning's heart.
But if Ning Wan knew that He Song interpreted this sentence in this way, she would definitely add in a very serious tone: Especially don't tell Chen Jinggu.
Unfortunately, Ning Wan did not expect this, and things did not develop as Ning Wan expected, nor as He Song imagined.
Looking at He Song flying up on his sword, Ning Wan breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as she was about to find a shortcut back to the inn, a bony and powerful hand landed on her shoulder.
Almost in an instant, Ning Wan felt like her hair was standing on end, and she subconsciously wanted to take off and escape from the control of the unknown.
The person behind him seemed to know Ning Wan's intention. He exerted a little force with his hand and pulled suddenly. Ning Wan, who had lost her spiritual power, immediately fell into the man's arms.
Suddenly, the hand that was originally on her shoulder fell on her waist as if it had lost control.
Ning Wan's body stiffened at the sound of a soft laugh, and her legs felt weak. "Who can explain to her why he is here, and how much he has seen and heard..."
"Junior sister, won't you explain?"
Shen Jinggu's tone was very calm, as if he was just asking casually.
However, the distance between him and Ning Wan was not dangerous, but too ambiguous.
The peak of his lips brushed past the tip of Ning Wan's ear. One hand wrapped around Ning Wan's waist to hold her in his arms, while the other hand picked up some tiny bits of grass and wood on the top of Ning Wan's hair.
At first he thought it was his illusion and was even ready to leave, but she was too careless.
As soon as he moved, she ran out impatiently. If he didn't want to know the reason why she ran out, he would have hugged her in his arms long ago.
Ning Wan felt that Shen Jinggu's actions were like cutting flesh with a blunt knife. He obviously wanted to cause "trouble" for her, but he still questioned her slowly and carefully.
"...If I say this is just a coincidence, will you believe me?"
Ning Wan no longer dared to take a deep breath. After trying to struggle in vain, she spoke tentatively.
She wondered uncertainly: Was Chen Jinggu angry? Angry at her for running away? Or was he angry at him for not waiting for him at the inn? Or was he ignoring the danger to save her?
Perhaps because she lacked the confidence to lie, her voice was light and she even emphasized the coincidence to cover up the truth.
Upon hearing this, Shen Jinggu did not respond. He just looked at Ning Wan's clean hair, and his hand fell on the side of her neck.
The delicate skin made him afraid to use force. After pausing for a few seconds, he used a little spiritual power to rub Ning Wan's shoulders.
The shoulder that was originally as white as jade had been hit somewhere, leaving a scar the size of a copper coin in the mortal world. It looked purple with a hint of green, and it was really too abrupt on this shoulder.
She was able to hurt herself just because I didn't keep my eyes on her for a moment. She's really amazing.
Ning Wan, who had done something wrong, felt an unbearable pain in her shoulder due to Shen Jinggu's manipulation. She couldn't help wondering if Shen Jinggu behind her didn't want to tolerate her anymore and wanted to finish her off before the plot ended.
