Thirty years ago, the sun was shining, the sky was clear and blue, the clear lake reflected the surrounding mountains and green trees, and the sacred place of Yaochi in the center of the lake was like a fairyland, peaceful and harmonious.
Outside a quiet palace in this holy land, a figure hurriedly crossed the courtyard and headed straight for the palace gate. With a creak, the door was pushed open, and a clear and pleasant voice echoed in the room:
"Senior sister, wake up!"
This cry was like the morning bell and evening drum, waking Chu Qian from her sweet dream. She struggled in the warm bed for a long time before reluctantly opening the quilt, mumbling and complaining with an unhappy face:
"Qiu'er, why did you wake me up so early?"
Standing beside the bed, Leng Qingqiu looked at Chu Qian who was lying in bed and refused to get up, with a helpless expression on her face. She put her hands on her hips and raised her voice and said:
"Sister, don't dawdle. Master has already called us. If we are late, we will be scolded!"
When Chu Qian heard the word "Master", her body shook violently. She immediately raised her head. Her originally sleepy eyes instantly became clear. A trace of panic flashed in her eyes, and she exclaimed.
"Oh! I remember now! Today is the day for a mission!"
After saying this, she trembled violently as if she had received an electric shock, then quickly jumped off the bed like an arrow from a bow. After a simple wash, she hurriedly opened the closet and began to search around like a headless fly, muttering to herself:
"Qiu'er, you will be the one leading the team this time!"
Hearing this, Leng Qingqiu couldn't help but feel a little surprised. She turned her head with a puzzled expression on her face and asked:
"Senior Sister, are you going to act alone again? This has happened for several times, right? Aren't you afraid of being discovered by Master?"
However, Chu Qian seemed extremely confident in response to Leng Qingqiu's concerns. She continued to search in the closet while answering nonchalantly:
"Oh, if you don't tell me and I don't tell you, how could mother know?"
"But……"
Before Leng Qingqiu finished speaking, Chu Qian seemed to suddenly remember something. She straightened her back quickly, stretched out her white jade hand, pinched Leng Qingqiu's cheek, and said seriously:
"No buts! Qiu'er, are you still my good sister? You won't even help me with such a small favor?"
Leng Qingqiu quietly felt the warmth from Chu Qian's hand, and the warmth seemed to penetrate through her skin and into her heart. The words she originally wanted to persuade were swallowed back into her stomach as if they were cast by magic.
Her eyes fell on Chu Qian's beautiful face. Her skin was as white as snow, her long silky hair gently brushed across her fair neck, and her big eyes were as clear and bright as a deep pool. Looking at this delicate face, Leng Qingqiu couldn't help but feel a faint pity in her heart.
She sighed softly, and finally nodded, indicating her agreement with Chu Qian's request. Seeing this, Chu Qian immediately smiled with satisfaction, as beautiful as a peach blossom in full bloom in spring.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Qian kissed Leng Qingqiu on the cheek without hesitation.
"Good Qiu'er, when I come back, I will buy you your favorite peach blossom cake!" Chu Qian said gently, her voice full of anticipation and joy.
After saying this, Chu Qian turned around like a happy little bird and continued to look for clothes. Her movements were light and quick, as if she had completely forgotten the kiss just now.
Leng Qingqiu stood there, following Chu Qian's figure. She looked at Chu Qian's slender back, and a hint of fondness flashed through her heart. This carefree senior sister was really cute.
Time passed by, the sun gradually rose, and it was already high in the sky. At the pier west of Yaochi, seven or eight figures had been waiting quietly. They were dressed in clean white dresses, with fluttering sleeves, standing in front of the pier like fairies, and the surrounding beautiful scenery complemented each other, forming a beautiful picture.
In front of them, Leng Qingqiu and Chu Qian were like two blooming white lotuses, wearing the same pure white dresses, standing gracefully in a row. Their clothes were not much different from those of other disciples, but on the cuffs and collars, there was a touch of elegant blue pattern, which was the unique mark of direct disciples.
Chu Qingxian raised her head slightly, her eyes fell on them, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, revealing satisfaction. She nodded slightly, then shifted her gaze to Chu Qian and Leng Qingqiu, and said in a serious and concerned tone:
"Qian'er, Qiu'er, you must be extra careful when you go out this time, and make sure every disciple can return safely!"
"Disciple obeys your command!"
Chu Qian and Leng Qingqiu responded in unison, their voices clear and firm. They both bowed respectfully to Chu Qingxian, their movements elegant and standard.
When the two stood up and prepared to leave, Chu Qingxian suddenly called Chu Qian and said in a slightly teasing tone:
"Qian'er, you must complete this mission seriously. I will ask Qiu'er to supervise you."
"Hey? Mother, why don't you trust me? Don't I always complete the tasks smoothly?"
Chu Qian shouted in a panic, as if eager to prove her ability. However, Chu Qingxian raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and after a light cough, he gracefully stretched out his hand and gently patted Chu Qian on the forehead.
“Stop talking nonsense, just do whatever I tell you to do. Also, remember to call me Master now!” Chu Qingxian’s voice was crisp and gentle, with a hint of doting.
Chu Qian felt a little pain from being slapped. She rubbed her forehead subconsciously, then muttered with a wronged look on her face: "I know, I know, Master! Disciple knows!"
After Chu Qingxian finished her instructions, they boarded the spaceship together, ready to leave Yao Chi and officially start this mission.
The spaceship slowly rose up, accompanied by a low roar coming from the bottom of the ship. Like an awakened giant beast, it suddenly took off into the air and rushed straight into the blue sky. In the blink of an eye, the spaceship rushed away like a meteor and gradually disappeared into the sky.
On the deck of the spaceship, Leng Qingqiu smiled and signaled to everyone to take a break. Then, she turned and walked to the control console and skillfully set the navigation route for the spaceship. After everything was ready, she walked towards Chu Qian's room.
When Leng Qingqiu walked to Chu Qian's door, before he could open his mouth, the door suddenly creaked open. Chu Qian had already changed into a brand new outfit, and stood at the door with excitement on her face, shouting impatiently:
"Qiu'er! Do you think I look good dressed like this?"
