"Let's go, I'll take you home."
Mo Shisheng didn't ask any further questions. From the moment Qingluan spoke, she already knew the reason for the matter.
After the carriage had been traveling for a short while, Mo Shisheng lifted the curtain and looked out, making eye contact with someone in another carriage.
Nan Xiao pursed her lips slightly, "Be careful on your way back."
"Okay, you too."
Mo Shisheng nodded slightly.
Nan Xiao slowly lowered the carriage curtain, leaned back in her seat, and whispered to the driver, "Let's go."
Seemingly, the past few nights of pulling all-nighters had taken their toll on her body. Mo Shisheng gently lay down on her seat and lowered her eyes, "Qingluan."
"Um"
Qingluan was thinking about how to part ways with Mo Shisheng when they arrived in Qi Kingdom when she heard Mo Shisheng call her name.
"In this Xuan Yun Continent where the strong are respected, is everyone striving to become stronger?" Mo Shisheng felt that the Xuan Yun Continent seemed to be the most peaceful time of her life.
In the 25th century, the lives of superpowered agents were dark and colorless; she had never known what humanity was...
"How did Yan'er spend the previous two years at the Shangguan Mansion?" Qingluan thought for a moment and then asked softly, "Everyone wants to become stronger, but there are also people who live their lives peacefully without fighting or grabbing."
Upon hearing Qingluan's question, Mo Shisheng smiled gently, "Forget it, let bygones be bygones. Everyone has something they must accomplish."
"..."
Qingluan fell silent; the task she had to complete was the order given to her by Ming Beiya.
From the moment Ming Beiya brought her to the human world from the demon realm, she decided that she would follow him for the rest of her life, even if it meant eternal damnation.
The journey back was not too dangerous; any strange beasts that occasionally appeared were dealt with by Qingluan.
Suddenly remembering what happened at Cloud Mist Ridge, Qingluan couldn't help but ask, "Yan'er, has your strength surpassed the Great Perfection of Qi Refining?"
"Foundation Building Stage 4"
Mo Shisheng spoke slowly, her gaze fixed on Qingluan, without any attempt to conceal anything.
Even though she had mentally prepared herself and guessed that Mo Shisheng's cultivation had reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, Qingluan still couldn't help but be shocked when Mo Shisheng reached the fourth stage of Foundation Establishment.
How could this be waste?
In such a short time, it seems like less than four months have passed since he recovered his meridians and reached the fourth stage of Foundation Establishment.
Summer has arrived, and late at night, the chirping of insects can be heard outside the car. The ground, evaporated by the sun, radiates heat and feels stuffy.
Mo Shisheng reached out and lifted the carriage curtain, using the faint light from the luminous pearl on the carriage to see the road on the ground. She spoke softly, her tone extremely slow, "Why were you willing to step forward and help me back then?"
It's no wonder Mo Shisheng asked this question; it's just that when everyone else adopted an attitude of "it's none of my business," Qingluan was the only one willing to step forward and help her.
Based on their interactions over the past few days, Mo Shisheng could only conclude that Qingluan was not the type to meddle in other people's business. As for why she was willing to help her in the first place, she had no idea.
"I just wanted to help you, because I thought you were special."
Qingluan's answer was not against her conscience; she genuinely felt that Mo Shisheng was special, the first girl that Ming Beiya had taken the initiative to care about.
Although getting close to Mo Shisheng was Ming Beiya's order, she also had a selfish curiosity, wanting to know more about what made the girl so special to Ming Beiya.
