We are going to meet the Demon King tomorrow, so remember to make adequate preparations in advance.
He Lanzhi hurriedly left these words, then turned around and left quickly like the wind.
Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao were left standing there in the room, looking at each other, completely unsure of where to start.
"Ling Xiao, what preparations do we need to make to meet the Demon King?" Gu Qingze asked softly with confusion in his eyes.
"Huh?" Chu Lingxiao glanced at him in surprise, then pointed his finger at himself in disbelief. "Qingze is asking me this?"
Gu Qingze nodded obediently, looking like a docile kitten.
"Please, if I knew, I wouldn't be here at a loss like Qingze."
Chu Lingxiao couldn't help but complain.
"Since Senior Brother Helan is nowhere to be found, why not ask Brother Jinnian? After all, as a demon, he's definitely more familiar with the various requirements for an audience with the Demon King than the two of us humans."
"Anyway, it's definitely more reliable than standing here and asking me."
"That's true." Gu Qingze smiled slightly. "I don't know why, but I always subconsciously feel that Ling Xiao should know. Maybe it's just an illusion."
Although he said this, his heart was like rippling lake water, with many speculations emerging one after another.
Maybe it's not an illusion...
After all, at this moment, for some reason, his memory of the content of the original novel has basically... become unclear.
However, he still trusts his intuition very much. As long as it does not involve emotions, the chances of his intuition being wrong are very small.
So there might really be some connection between Chu Lingxiao and the Demon King.
Gu Qingze did not express this unfounded thought out loud as he was not sure about it. He just looked at Chu Lingxiao with a smile.
Seeing him looking at him like that, Chu Lingxiao couldn't help but rub his head.
"Qingze and I are almost inseparable. If Qingze doesn't know, then I naturally don't know either. It's obvious that Qingze is just mistaking it for something."
His tone was firm, yet he couldn't hide the subtle hint of joy.
Qingze must have relied on him, so when he encountered difficulties, he subconsciously came to him for help.
If that was the case, he sincerely hoped Qingze could rely on him more...
Gu Qingze let him rub her as he pleased, being extremely obedient. When Chu Lingxiao let go, he revealed a malicious smile, and while Chu Lingxiao was off guard, he suddenly used force to mess up his hair.
Chu Lingxiao was stunned at first, then he reacted instantly and made a move to grab his troublesome hand.
Gu Qingze did not resist this time. He obediently let Ling Xiao hold his hand and intertwined his fingers with his.
"Ahem, let's go find Brother Jinnian now and ask him what we need to pay attention to when meeting the Demon King. Maybe he knows."
Chu Lingxiao didn't expose his smug look because his little plan had succeeded. He just smiled and nodded: "Let's go."
When He Lanzhi was talking to them, she didn't take them too far. Soon, they returned to the room where Song Jinnian and Su Han were.
To their surprise, Song Jinnian did not chat and laugh with Su Han as they had imagined, but sat quietly at the table, concentrating on reading an unknown book. The whole scene was quiet and peaceful.
Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao came forward curiously, wanting to know what Song Jinnian was looking at so intently.
But they forgot that they did not understand the language of the demon race at all. Looking at the cluster of characters that looked like ghost paintings, they smiled at each other helplessly and had to give up.
Song Jinnian was so engrossed in reading that he didn't notice their return until this moment. He closed the book obediently and carefully put it back to its original place on the bookshelf.
But after he put down the book, the first thing he looked at was not them. Instead, he looked around. After realizing that He Lanzhi did not come back with them, he shook his head slightly disappointed, and then turned his gaze to Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao.
"Brother Qingze, Brother Lingxiao, where did Helan go?"
They told the truth: "I don't know, maybe he's busy with something."
"Is that so... I originally wanted to ask him something..."
Song Jinnian curled his lips, then quickly cheered up.
"Never mind. I'll have a chance to see him again."
