The servant respectfully led them to the door of a room in the deepest part, and then quietly retreated.
Gu Qingze hesitated in front of the door for a moment before slowly raising his hand, gently knocking on the door, and then carefully pushing the door open.
As soon as he tentatively stuck half of his head in, he was stunned, as if he saw a familiar person, oh no, it was a demon.
He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, then looked again... Well, he was not mistaken, it was Senior Brother Helan whom he had not seen for a long time.
Why is Senior Brother Helan here?
Didn't he return to the demon world to deal with his father's funeral? Could it be that he hasn't done it yet?
Also, didn't the servant say this was the master's room? Is Senior Brother Helan the master?
A series of doubts arose in Gu Qingze's mind.
Just as he was about to step in, Song Jinnian ran in straight away.
He smiled helplessly and followed Song Jinnian. Others also walked into the room one after another.
When Chu Lingxiao saw He Lanzhi, just like Gu Qingze, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, but it was fleeting, and then he quickly returned to his usual calm demeanor.
Gu Qingze was about to speak when Song Jinnian spoke first.
"Helan, do you still remember me?"
When he said this, his emotions seemed a little inexplicable, as if mixed with some indescribable complex emotions.
Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao looked at Song Jinnian in surprise at the same time.
You've been behaving so abnormally all this time, especially at this moment...!
You always call men brother and women sister. It's the first time you call a monster like that. It's really strange.
They complained a few words in their hearts and continued to act as bystanders. After all, Brother Jinnian obviously wanted to reminisce with Senior Brother Helan, so it was better for them not to disturb him.
Unexpectedly, to their surprise, He Lanzhi just looked Song Jinnian up and down, looking a little confused.
"Who are you?"
Song Jinnian sighed deeply, as if he had anticipated this, and reminded, "Helan, what happened three hundred years ago..."
"You are Song Jinnian."
Before he could finish, He Lanzhi looked as if she had suddenly understood something.
"Yes, that's the correct answer." Song Jinnian breathed a sigh of relief.
He Lanzhi moved closer to him, gently lifted his chin with her fingers, and looked him over carefully.
"Why do you look like this after you transformed? You're not even as good-looking as your original form before you transformed."
He commented after releasing his hand.
Song Jinnian said sarcastically, "I'm really sorry that it didn't meet your expectations."
"It's okay, I forgive you."
He Lanzhi acted magnanimous and glanced at the people standing next to her.
"Brothers, and this stranger, please feel free to sit down and don't worry about us. I'll have a few words with Song Jinnian, and we'll get down to business in a moment. Don't worry, I've already dealt with most of the things you're concerned about."
Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao nodded, then sat down with Su Han.
But they all had a strange feeling in their hearts.
How can I describe it? It's that strange and awkward feeling that my senior brother, who I'd always thought was unreliable, suddenly seemed inexplicably reliable.
After He Lanzhi had made all the arrangements, she was about to say something when Song Jinnian asked curiously.
"How's it going? Helan vowed to pursue a certain human back then. Has he succeeded now?"
"Hmm... is that true?" He Lanzhi blinked. "You must be remembering it wrongly. Didn't I seek refuge with the human race?"
"Is that so?" Song Jinnian's face was full of confusion.
"Of course." He Lanzhi nodded, her face solemn. "My mother had no choice but to make the decision to go to the human race and join the Qingyun Sect in order to save my life."
"As for... pursuing the human race, that was just something I said casually when I was younger, just to tease you."
For some reason, there was an indescribable loneliness in He Lanzhi's words.
"After all... no human would truly like a demon like me."
