Upon hearing this, Feng Yantong shook her head and said, "Alright, there's no need to explain. No matter how you explain it, I can guess what that scene will be like."
"Because of your misunderstanding, Jian'er's reputation will definitely be severely affected."
Ai Youwei's face immediately turned pale, feeling that her performance just now was very bad.
She wondered if this would affect her master's evaluation of her, thus reducing her competitiveness for the position of Saintess.
After all, the reason she came with her master was because her master had promised her.
If she can persuade her senior brother to return, she can increase her merits.
This was to give her an edge over other competitors when vying for the position of saintess.
Feng Yantong ignored Ai Youwei and turned to Ye Qingcheng, saying, "Junior sister, Jian'er is right there. What are you going to do next?"
Ye Qingcheng wiped away her tears and said, "Meidu is too dangerous. I want to take Jian'er back. After Jian'er returns, I will investigate the person who impersonated her."
Meidu is the capital of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, and also the lair of the Nine-Tailed Fox.
There are countless powerful demons and monsters here.
Let alone Gu Jian, who has been cultivating for more than ten years, even she would be in great danger if her whereabouts were exposed.
Therefore, in Ye Qingcheng's view, taking Gu Jian away from here is the first step.
Feng Yantong shook her head and said, "I agree, but I'm afraid Jian'er won't go back with you."
After observing for a day and a night, she felt that Gu Jian probably had something important to do here.
I will not leave easily until the matter is completed.
But Ye Qingcheng thought that her senior sister was saying that she had broken Gu Jian's heart and refused to go back with her.
Ye Qingcheng felt a pang of pain in her heart and said, "Senior sister, I don't know. But since I'm here, I want to give it a try. I also brought Youwei and Ruyan with me."
“Jian’er usually dotes on Youwei and Ruyan. If they try to persuade Jian’er, he might listen to them.”
"they?"
Feng Yantong shook her head.
Previously, when Feng Yantong heard that they had come to the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, she also felt that there was some hope in letting them go.
After all, they had grown up with Gu Jian since they were little, spending every day together.
But after seeing Ai Youwei and Liu Ruyan's performance just now, she felt that the chances were slim.
It would be better for Ye Qingcheng to go herself.
Seeing Feng Yantong's expression, Ai Youwei was very dissatisfied. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly as she looked at Feng Yantong and said, "Senior Aunt Feng, what do you mean by this? It's as if I'm weak. It's just getting Senior Brother back, what's so difficult about that? I can take care of Senior Brother in no time!"
Liu Ruyan also felt dissatisfied, but she was more reserved. She said softly, "Uncle-Master, since Master sent us here, it means he still has some confidence in us. Senior Brother has always treated us well, so I believe he will listen to us. Ruyan will also do her best."
Feng Yantong shook her head again; she still didn't think it was a good idea.
However, considering that Meidu is indeed dangerous, it would be a good outcome if Gu Jian could be persuaded to return.
Feng Yantong said, "You can go over there, but I suggest you treat Jian'er better."
Ai Youwei snorted, "Senior Sister Feng, you don't need to worry about that. We've always treated our senior brother very well."
But what she was thinking was—
Oh.
Does that hypocritical senior brother even deserve my kindness?
They don't deserve it at all.
Seeing this, Feng Yantong shook her head again.
Ye Qingcheng also frowned slightly.
At this moment, Liu Ruyan turned to Ye Qingcheng and said softly, "Master, let me go find Senior Brother first."
"This disciple will certainly do his best to make my senior brother change his mind."
Ai Youwei's eyes widened. "Second Senior Sister, what do you mean? Are you going to try and take it from me?"
Liu Ruyan said softly, "Junior sister, what are you talking about? I didn't try to take it from you. I just wanted to persuade our senior brother to come back."
Ai Youwei was furious.
Liu Ruyan was trying to steal the credit from her.
When I came here before, Master said...
Whoever persuades the eldest brother to return will be credited with a great achievement.
But Liu Ruyan said she wanted to go first.
Ai Youwei turned to Ye Qingcheng and said, "Master, look at Second Senior Sister, she's so scheming. You be the judge."
Ye Qingcheng shook her head and said, "Youwei, how can you say that about your senior sister? Your senior sister was only doing it for your senior brother."
"Alright then, let your senior sister go and try to persuade her first. If she can't persuade her, then you can go."
Judging from her performance just now, Ye Qingcheng also felt that her second disciple, Liu Ruyan, was more reliable than Ai Youwei.
Ai Youwei was furious.
However, since her master had said so, there was nothing she could do.
Ai Youwei snorted and said, "Second Senior Sister, you're quite something. I'll remember this."
"Junior sister, I don't know what you're talking about." Liu Ruyan looked innocent, but she was overjoyed. As long as she could win over her senior brother, the position of Holy Maiden would be hers for sure.
Liu Ruyan then said to Ye Qingcheng, "Master, since that's the case, I'll go ahead first."
Ye Qingcheng nodded and said, "Go, Ruyan. Be careful."
"Um."
Liu Ruyan nodded gently and went outside.
On the other side, in the courtyard, Gu Jian frowned.
For some reason, he had a feeling of being watched just now.
It seems there's more than one spying.
This feeling is very unpleasant.
Gu Jian thought for a moment, then turned to Ling'er, the little devil in the Longevity Demon Palace, and asked, "Little Yiya, do you have any treasures here that can isolate divine sense?"
“Eeya, Master, yes. In the Hall of Longevity, there is the Absolute Sense Heavenly Pearl. This is a third-grade Heavenly Rank treasure that can block divine sense from prying into the body, and it only requires three thousand Longevity Points.”
Three thousand longevity points are a bit expensive.
