It's late at night.
Eleven interrupted their conversation and picked up Xiao Ruyu.
"It's getting late, and the little princess has gone to bed."
Xiao Ruyu yawned lightly, feeling a little uncomfortable when she remembered that she would have to spend the night here.
"I'm not very sleepy yet..."
"Eleven, just coax the little princess to sleep." Eleven picked her up and offered to coax her to sleep, then stood up and walked out.
Jingshu's words came from behind, "Little Princess, how can you, with your noble body, live in the same room with a guard?"
"How about this, I'll go find the waiter and open another one."
He looked as if he was concerned about Xiao Ruyu, and stood up to go downstairs to find the waiter.
"No need, you don't need to worry about the relationship between me and the little princess."
There was a certain stiffness in Eleven's words, and his tone was clearly bad.
Xiao Ruyu patted his chest gently, "Xiaoshu also means well, Shiyi, don't be angry with him."
Xiaoshu? How long have we known each other and you're already calling me that affectionately?!
Eleven's face was as dark as ink. He kicked the door open, picked up Xiao Ruyu and left.
He didn't say a word along the way.
Xiao Ruyu didn't know what was wrong with him and looked at him in confusion.
【Eleven, what's wrong with you? 】
【You seem to dislike small books very much.】
Eleven did not answer. He carried Xiao Ruyu to the mattress, pulled a quilt over her and lay on the ground, sulking with his back to her.
After a long time, Xiao Ruyu lay motionless on the bed.
At night, Eleven's eyes were bright and he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Just as he was lost in thought, a warm little hand held his hand.
Eleven was stunned for just a moment, and then something flashed before his eyes.
"Little Princess, why did you bring Eleven into the space so late at night?"
He looked at the world of Yaowang Valley and felt confused.
He lowered his eyes to look at Xiao Ruyu, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes, "Eleven of them was not angry, but seeing that the man's identity was unknown and he was still so sweet-talking..."
Eleven thought that Xiao Ruyu pulled him in to coax him, so he hurriedly explained, but he also felt that something was wrong.
Xiao Ruyu was obviously stunned, "Eleven, what are you talking about?"
"Oh, now is not the time to talk about this."
Isn't this the time to talk about this?
It was Eleven's turn to stand there in a daze, then he lowered his head, his cheeks flushed.
It turned out that he was just being too sentimental.
Xiao Ruyu did not notice anything unusual about Eleven and pulled him into a cave in the back mountain of Yaowang Valley and sat down cross-legged.
Her expression was slightly serious as she spoke up to remind him.
"A trip to the mines is always dangerous, I think."
"Time passes much slower in this space than outside, so why not take advantage of tonight to catch up?"
Looking at Eleven, Xiao Ruyu continued, "Eleven's spiritual power has been cultivated to a certain extent, but it has not yet reached the level of perfection. The spiritual power in the space is abundant, so take this opportunity to improve your cultivation."
Eleven naturally had no objection and began to mobilize the spiritual power in his body to practice.
The spiritual energy in his body was a little shaky. Xiao Ruyu noticed this and asked in confusion.
"Eleven, why are you so uneasy?"
"Are you really afraid of something?"
Hearing Xiao Ruyu's question out of the blue, Eleven suddenly retracted his spiritual power, but because he used too much force, he could barely hold his body.
He lowered his head and looked into Xiao Ruyu's clear and bright eyes, and his heart skipped a beat.
Looking away, Eleven said awkwardly, "What could possibly happen to Eleven? The little princess has only known that person for a short time, yet she calls him so affectionately."
"Don't dare Eleven raise any other objections."
Listening to his sour words, Xiao Ruyu was really surprised.
"Eleven, are you jealous?" She leaned over and tilted her head to put it under Eleven's lowered head.
"No, eleven." He refused outright, but his red ears betrayed her.
No wonder everything seemed wrong today, it turned out to be because of this.
Xiao Ruyu realized it later and couldn't help laughing out loud, saying half jokingly and half seriously.
"Then should I change Eleven's name as well?"
"Xiaoyi? Yiyi."
Eleven looked at her sweet smile and was suddenly distracted.
Senior sister, when will you recognize me?
Seeing that Eleven looked worried, Xiao Ruyu thought he still cared about this matter, so he simply left him in the space and slipped out.
As a result, the little sleepiness I felt to begin with disappeared completely.
She got up and wanted to see if Jingshu had fallen asleep.
Their rooms were not far from each other. Seeing that the candle was still on in the room, Xiao Ruyu pushed the door open without thinking.
Huh? Locked?
After pushing twice, Xiao Ruyu found that Jingshu had locked herself in the room. She became confused and remembered what Eleven had mentioned about her unknown identity.
Eleven was practicing when she pulled him in from the space again.
"Xiao..." He just uttered a word when Xiao Ruyu covered his mouth and made a gesture to keep quiet.
[Jingshu is still awake at this late hour and has locked himself in his room. Eleven, I also think something is wrong.]
The events of the day flooded into her mind, and her mind became clearer.
Who would let a half-grown child travel alone?
Xiao Ruyu thought of the conversation with Jingshu. He didn't even mention what he was doing here.
The mystery lingered in her heart. She pulled Eleven, hid by the window, and quietly knocked a hole.
The scene before her almost frightened her to the ground.
Xiao Ruyu took two steps back, covered her mouth to control herself from screaming, and looked at Eleven in shock.
【eleven!!!】
【I recognize him! 】
Jingshu in the room no longer looked like a child. He looked to be in his thirties and was wearing a black robe.
Xiao Ruyu remembered clearly the half of the face that was exposed.
It's the leader! The genius sorcerer!
After hearing her description, Eleven was also very shocked, "The little princess said that this person is the one behind the scenes?"
He tried to keep his voice as low as possible, but Jingshu who was in the room still heard it.
He slapped the window, and Xiao Ruyu pulled Eleven away.
A big hole was blown open in the window, and the two had nowhere to hide and were exposed to him.
"Hehehe... you finally found me."
Jingshu's voice was also different from the child's voice before, and there was a bit of sinisterness in the vicissitudes of life tone.
"How is it? Is my rejuvenation technique on par with yours?"
Xiao Ruyu was stunned, realizing that he thought he had used the art of rejuvenation to look like a child.
Thinking that he had deceived her for so long, Xiao Ruyu felt so angry that her teeth were itching.
"Yours is much worse than mine!"
"Since you delivered it yourself, I don't have to look for you anymore."
"Hand over the mother Gu that can detoxify me!"
Jing Shu howled to the sky, his smile suddenly disappearing, "Do you think I will give it to you just because you want it?"
He moved in front of Xiao Ruyu like a ghost, lifted her chin and looked around.
"In view of your extraordinary talent, I may consider taking you as my disciple."
"If you are willing, I will hand the mother Gu over to you!"
"Well, your brother's life is in your hands..."
