Xiao Ning's eyes were fixed on Bai Ziyun, who was less than ten meters away from him, and he was filled with uncontrollable excitement. He hadn't seen his beloved master for a long time, and his eyes couldn't help but become moist.
However, he knew that he could not reveal his identity at this moment and had to remain calm. He didn't know if there were any spies from the Piaomiao Immortal Sect around Bai Ziyun, so he resisted the urge and tried to calm his mind.
Bai Ziyun stared at the black-haired boy in front of her, her heart beating like a deer. Although she did not recognize that the boy in front of her was Xiao Ning, she felt a familiar aura from him, a kind of intimacy that made her heart warm.
Bai Ziyun asked softly: "Who are you?"
Xiao Ning took a deep breath, then said in a deep voice: "Senior Bai, long time no see, I am Ning Que."
When Bai Ziyun heard that he was Ning Que, he hurried forward and grabbed his hand, anxiously asking: "You...you are Ning Que! Do you know the whereabouts of Ning'er? Where is he?"
Xiao Ning felt a sharp pain in his heart when he saw Bai Ziyun's anxious look, but he still resisted the urge to hug her and comforted her, "Senior Bai, I really don't know where Brother Xiao is, and I know that he is in a difficult situation. But please believe me, I believe he will be fine, please don't worry too much!"
Bai Ziyun's eyes revealed a hint of doubt. She stared at Xiao Ning closely and asked, "How can you be sure that he is safe if you don't know where he is?"
Xiao Ning was speechless after hearing this question. He secretly groaned in his heart, wondering why he hadn't noticed that his master was so sharp-tongued before.
After a long time, Bai Ziyun suddenly felt a vibration around her waist. She looked down and finally took out the communication disc to check. It showed a message from Yun Yao, saying that Ning Que was found in Fenggang, and maybe she could find Xiao Ning's whereabouts through him. Bai Ziyun looked at the message in her hand, smiled helplessly, and then turned her gaze to Xiao Ning.
"My apprentice said that you are living in Xia Mansion now, is that right?"
Xiao Ning nodded silently and replied, "Yes, I am now the bodyguard of the eldest lady of the Xia family."
Bai Ziyun frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "The second young lady of the Xia family is my apprentice, and I just happened to be going to find her. Let's go together."
So, Xiao Ning and Bai Ziyun set out on the journey to Xia Mansion together. Along the way, Bai Ziyun was always in a state of restlessness. She asked him about Xiao Ning's situation from time to time, but Xiao Ning perfunctorily said that he didn't know. In their conversation, Bai Ziyun was full of concern and worry for Xiao Ning, but Xiao Ning was a little overwhelmed.
Finally, they arrived at the gate of Xia's mansion. Xiao Ning led Bai Ziyun into the mansion. Along the way, the servants of Xia's mansion all cast curious eyes on Bai Ziyun, but Bai Ziyun didn't care.
In the hall of the Xia Mansion, Xia Ling and Yun Yao looked at the people coming outside with surprise.
"Master, why are you here?"
Bai Ziyun looked at the two of them and said in a deep voice.
"I sensed Ning'er's aura nearby, so I came over to check it out. I met Ning Que on the way, and then I realized that the aura came from him."
Yun Yao and Xia Ling looked at Ning Que. Ning Que was standing there with the horrific scars on his face that were shocking. The two of them couldn't help but feel a little scared, as if they could feel the pain and suffering he had experienced.
Yun Yao asked anxiously, "Mr. Ning, do you know where Ning'er is?"
There was a hint of anxiety and expectation in her voice, but Ning Que shook his head gently, his tone full of helplessness:
"I'm sorry, I don't know where Brother Xiao is either."
Hearing this, Xia Ling and Yun Yao both showed a look of disappointment on their faces. The hall suddenly fell into silence, and the atmosphere became solemn.
Finally, it was Bai Ziyun who broke the deadlock. He turned his gaze to Wang Rong and said with a smile, "Long time no see, Madam Wang."
Wang Rong also smiled and responded: "Long time no see! Bai Jianxian. I have also heard about your disciple's affairs. Please relax."
Bai Ziyun nodded, then turned his gaze to Xia Chan. Xia Chan was holding Er Ning, with a gentle smile on her face. Bai Ziyun looked at her and couldn't help but sighed: "Xia Chan, long time no see, you are beautiful again recently!"
Xia Chan responded with a smile, and suddenly, Bai Ziyun's eyes fell on Er Ning in her hand. There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, because he had seen this little guy in the demon world, and it was Xiao Ning who had been holding it.
Bai Ziyun hurriedly asked, "Xia Chan, where did this little guy come from?"
Xia Chan looked at Bai Ziyun in confusion and replied, "This is Master Ning's pet, named Er Ning."
Xiao Ning heard Xia Chan's answer and suddenly felt overwhelmed. He secretly complained in his heart that he had forgotten that Bai Ziyun had met Er Ning. At this moment, his heart was beating so hard that it seemed to jump out of his throat. Was his identity about to be discovered by Bai Ziyun? He clenched his fists nervously, and beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead.
Bai Ziyun turned her head and looked at him, her eyes as sharp as two flashes of lightning, and then rushed forward at lightning speed, tightly grasped his collar, and lifted him up with force, lifting him several inches off the ground. She asked angrily:
"Have you seen Ning'er?"
Xiao Ning felt a strong momentum rushing towards him, instantly enveloping him. This momentum was like a mountain pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to breathe and his heartbeat accelerated. This sense of oppression from Bai Ziyun was so strong that he subconsciously wanted to retreat and escape, but at this moment he had nowhere to escape. That kind of innate fear, like a student trembling involuntarily when seeing a strict teacher, was deeply rooted in his heart.
