Chapter 147 You Are So Generous
The moment Jiang Jiu saw Ji Chen, she was actually a little surprised. She thought he would be very busy, but she didn't expect that he would have time to see her.
but....
Jiang Jiu's gaze fell on Chi Li who was standing beside Ji Chen. At this moment, he had a rare cold expression on his face, as if he was about to destroy the world.
"Um...what's up?"
Jiang Jiu asked carefully.
I always feel that the atmosphere between them is extremely stiff. It's no exaggeration to say that it feels a hundred times worse than before.
Normally, Akari would not show his emotions so openly.
Today is really unusual.
"I have something to ask."
Ji Chen looked at her with eyes as gentle as always, and today there was even a layer of guilt.
Jiang Jiu was a little puzzled, but still responded softly.
"Master, there's no need to do this. I will help in any way I can."
Ji Chen must have been troubled by the extraterritorial demons recently. It would be great if I could help him.
"You are very generous."
At this moment, Chi Li glanced at Jiang Jiu indifferently, and his tone was slightly yin and yang, even a little irritating. But after seeing the inexplicable hot emotion in his eyes, Jiang Jiu felt as if he was scalded.
"Go on."
Jiang Jiu quickly withdrew her gaze and did not look into Chi Li's eyes. She would not refuse Ji Chen's request.
He is the immortal who protects all living beings. If everything goes wrong for her, it means that he really cannot solve the problem, and his priesthood will threaten the people of Dawn.
"Explore where the first generation core is."
Ji Chen spoke directly to the point without beating around the bush.
Jiang Jiu understood, it turned out to be because of this. It seemed that she was the only one who could help. After all, Caslan Big Eyes had only actively communicated with her, and there was no other way to obtain its information.
"Can."
Jiang Jiu nodded slightly without any hesitation.
"Thank you very much."
After hearing the affirmative answer, Ji Chen lowered his cold eyes slightly, took a half step back, and saluted Jiang Jiu very respectfully and formally.
"?"
Jiang Jiu was startled by his action. Just as he was about to reach out to help him, he suddenly remembered Ji Chen's identity.
He is now an Immortal Lord, and he is also a very upright Immortal Lord who will never harm sentient beings for his own selfish desires. Now, in Ji Chen's eyes, the relationship between them is probably no longer just a master and disciple, nor is it the relationship between a lover and the loved one, but the relationship between an Immortal Lord and Fairy Qingyuan.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jiu fell silent.
She watched Ji Chen quietly as he finished his ceremony and gave him a relaxed smile.
"Don't feel guilty, all the people in the world include me."
Jiang Jiu originally wanted to comfort Ji Chen, but he turned out to have a serious look on his face and spoke to Jiang Jiu in a very serious tone.
"You are willing to take action because of the friendship between master and disciple. It is the master's fault."
Ji Chen didn't say it directly, but Jiang Jiu understood what he meant.
It was simply that he felt that he was exploiting her feelings and the relationship between master and disciple to gain her sympathy.
"...well."
Jiang Jiu sighed softly. Sometimes she felt helpless. Ji Chen seemed easy to talk to and sensible on weekdays, but he was actually a stubborn person.
She could only vaguely feel it when playing games, but now the feeling is more obvious.
"Whatever you think."
After Jiang Jiu finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Chi Li and softened his tone.
"Untie it."
Chi Li slowly lowered his arms, which he had been hugging. The coldness around him became even stronger. His lips were pressed into a straight line, and his half-open and half-closed fox eyes were now fully open, exuding a strong sense of danger.
"Think it over carefully."
Jiang Jiu nodded firmly. After hearing this, Chi Li closed his eyes on the spot, took a deep breath, and then opened them again, as if he was forcibly suppressing his anger.
"Good, you're good."
His words seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, and he spoke each word with gritted teeth.
Jiang Jiu had never seen Chi Li angry before. Even when he was angry, he would only act like a smiling tiger, and his emotions would never show on the surface.
She is quite talented to be able to make him so angry.
Jiang Jiu thought with a wry smile in his heart.
"If Bai Ze hadn't spoken up, you wouldn't have been able to see her today."
Before Chi Li left, he looked at Ji Chen's back and sneered.
"It turns out that she is a reasonable person."
Ji Chen said lightly.
"you....."
Seeing this, Chi Li was speechless for a moment. In the end, he could only flick his sleeves, turn around and leave angrily.
Chi Li left, and Jiang Jiu silently breathed a sigh of relief.
She knew that Chi Li was afraid that she would get hurt and was worried about her.
Because of this, she could feel even greater pressure.
"Well, once he deactivates the magical tool, I can relocate the First Generation's position."
After Jiang Jiu finished speaking, she wanted to turn around and leave. Yun Shuili and Long Xuan were still in her room.
But before she had walked out for long, she heard Ji Chen's voice coming from behind her.
"When everything is over, I will atone for my sins to you."
Jiang Jiu was instantly ashamed. There was no need to make it so serious. She just wanted to chat with Kazilan Big Eyes and ask about its coordinates. It didn't even endanger her life. It was just a small sacrifice. The atonement was too much.
It would be better to say that she would look down on Ji Chen if Ji Chen harmed the people of the world because of her.
“…No need.”
Jiang Jiu refused gently.
"Bai Ze also asked you to come to me for help, so you don't have to blame yourself."
Ji Chen was silent for a moment and continued.
"Akare said he was willing to personally enter the dimensional rift and search for the First Generation's core amidst the turbulence, and he refused to allow you to come into contact with the First Generation."
"But the Master refused."
Jiang Jiu keenly captured the key words, and his heart instantly felt like it was being gripped by a big hand, causing a dull pain.
"He was already seriously injured last time trying to save me. How dare he?"
It was Bai Ze who told her these things, Chi Li never mentioned them on his own initiative.
She hadn't expected him to be willing to step into the turbulence again for her.
Ji Chen's voice continued to float into Jiang Jiu's ears.
"But the cracks are expanding too quickly. I'm worried I won't be able to hold on until then."
What Jiang Jiu didn't see was that Ji Chen clenched his fingers tightly while speaking, with blood oozing out of his palms.
"It's okay, no need to explain, I really have no complaints."
Jiang Jiu was afraid that Ji Chen would continue to confess, so he immediately waved his hands and ran away.
"If there's any progress, I'll let you know."
With her personality, she is not suitable for accepting other people's thanks in person. She will feel inexplicably embarrassed and ashamed, and even have facial paralysis that she hasn't seen for a long time.
Ji Chen is already feeling guilty now, and if she keeps having such a cold face, he will feel guilty to death.
Jiang Jiu thought about it and quickened his pace, just wanting to escape from the scene as soon as possible.
“…”
On the other side, Ji Chen looked at Jiang Jiu's quickly departing back. The light in his eyes grew dimmer and dimmer, and his whole body seemed to be covered in a shadow, surrounded by loneliness.
