after a while......
Inside the Spirit Pool Palace, Chu Youwei sat next to Ye Qinghan. The two seemed to have a much stronger relationship than before, and they drank together for a long time.
Chu Youwei gently brought the wine glass to her lips, but then slowly put it down, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, unsure of how to begin.
The two had been soaking for a while, drinking together, but neither of them spoke.
However, it was Chu Youwei who spoke first.
"Has it been half a month?"
"Well, I haven't cultivated with my master for half a month. I feel like I'm about to die." Ye Qinghan slumped his head. It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned it. Now that he did, Ye Qinghan seemed to be on the verge of death. Even Miaomiao would probably think he should prepare for his funeral if she saw him!
However, Chu Youwei wasn't worried about Ye Qinghan's vital signs: "You noticed something was wrong a long time ago, didn't you?"
"Yes, I knew that day. Even if my master hadn't said anything, I knew that Qinghan wasn't included in the cultivation technique."
"Let me guess, because Master has already given us all the best cultivation techniques he possessed, right?"
Ye Qinghan smiled and said, "Yes, that may not be all of Master's techniques, but it is definitely the most suitable technique for us sisters."
Chu Youwei nodded; she had thought of that too.
"What do you think Master is hiding? I feel that rather than giving us something to do, it's more like he's using this to stall us. How long has it been since you contacted anyone outside Lingxian Palace?"
“Even my jade pendant has been placed under a restriction by my master. Not only can I not contact anyone, but I also can’t get out.” Ye Qinghan said calmly, but what Chu Youwei said was something she cared about very much.
Ye Qinghan poured himself a glass, then filled Chu Youwei's glass as well, and slowly began to speak.
"I think Master is serious this time, so we'd better behave ourselves."
Chu Youwei pouted: "Of course I know, I just feel like a lot of things are not right. Do you know something?"
"Unfortunately, my knowledge this time is also very limited."
"Dongfang Jue is not in Lingxian Palace." Of course, Chu Youwei hadn't just discovered this, but she had observed for a long time before discussing it with Ye Qinghan.
"This was approved by Master, or rather, Master deliberately sent him away."
Chu Youwei nodded; this was exactly what she had guessed.
"Is Master in Lingxian Palace?"
This was Chu Youwei's last question, but Ye Qinghan did not answer it.
Ye Qinghan didn't know the answer to this question either, and she seemed to know what Chu Youwei wanted to say.
Ye Qinghan might be able to keep an eye on his junior sisters, but how could he possibly keep an eye on his master?
Master comes without a trace and goes without a trace. If he really wanted to leave, even Lord Gu Ai couldn't stop him. How could she possibly stop him?
The two exchanged a glance. Chu Youwei relied on her understanding of her master, while Ye Qinghan relied on the information she had gathered. They both seemed to have reached the same conclusion at the same time.
Lady Gu Ai had been making preparations a few days ago, and the entire mansion was bustling with activity. Amber, Crane Light, and Ye Qinghan hadn't seen these Valkyries for a long time.
In the past, they would occasionally come back to Lingchi Palace to take a bath, or to have a couple of drinks with Ye Qinghan, and also to see if their master had any treasures, or if Ye Qinghan had any pretty jewelry.
However, Ye Qinghan has not seen them since Miaomiao became his disciple.
Although Miaomiao's apprenticeship was just a formality, it was far less grand than Li Shiyao's, and basically the same as Dongfang Jue's.
However, Ye Qinghan still had some affection for Miaomiao, but listening to his master's thoughts, he seemed to be somewhat wary of Miaomiao, as if he was worried that this girl might turn bad.
Meanwhile, in Mansion No. 11, on the second floor of the main building, was Master Gu's office.
"Lord Gu Ai, a heavy aerial garden has been discovered in the Southern Region. The Dragon Slayer Squad is on its way to the target area."
"Tell them to stay put."
"Report, Lord Amber, the advance team has arrived at the coordinates and requests space-level strike authorization."
"approve."
"Lord Amber, Operation Channel 3, Lady Yu Meng requests to speak with you."
"Take it."
"Lord Gu Ai, the Falcon Heavy Crossbows in the inner city have passed through the spatial gate. Should we deploy them to the battlefield immediately?"
"First, tell the disaster-stricken side that they must hold on for another three hours."
Xiao Ai was taking a nap on the table, while Su Cheng was resting on the sofa. Xiao Ai wasn't made of iron; she got tired too.
However, it's more mentally taxing, since she's been sitting in that chair for over a month now without moving.
"The southeastern defense line of the Heavenly Dao Pavilion and the Four Domains Alliance has been basically defeated, and our personnel have taken over the battlefield."
"With the fall of Tianshui Lake and Zhiyu City, most of the main force of the Immortal Alliance was forced to retreat to the Anshan area, a hundred miles away."
"The Eastern Dead Zone is expected to be completely cleared within two days. At that time, the 12th, 14th and 23rd squads will be the first to advance the battle line to the east. It is expected that they can advance to the Shilong River line within a week."
"Our advance team in the northern region made contact with the local armed forces twenty minutes ago and is expected to take action within three hours."
"The 12th Heavy Armored Division of the Anti-God Army recaptured the hinterland of Black Gorge Mountain last night and is building defensive fortifications along the mountain. Heavy air superiority strikes are all in place."
"Spatial-level suppression has been approved. Seventh advance team, please provide guidance."
"At 9:00 AM this morning, our forces completely lost the Siyu Pass defense line in the Southern Region. The Sixth Anti-Aircraft Armored Squadron has retreated to..."
Reports from various places filled Su Cheng and Xiao Ai's minds, but the two, who seemed to be resting, suddenly opened their eyes after hearing this!
