Xu Qiuqian nodded: "But you didn't do that."
"Yes, I have been finding excuses to delay. I guess it doesn't want to waste time with me these past two days, so it keeps trying to control me."
Speaking of this, a hint of apology appeared in Zhu Yichen's eyes.
“Just now…”
"It's okay. You attacked me just now because you were controlled. I don't mind."
Zhu Yichen breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
Xu Qiuqian thought for a moment and looked at Shan Miaomiao and Gu Jiao.
"How about you stay in the jade pendant space first? If you will be controlled if you go out, you can stay here first, and I will call you when the time comes."
Zhu Yichen looked hesitant.
"But if I come in, then Master, wouldn't Senior Jin Ling be the only one who can help you outside?"
In fact, she couldn't even count on Senior Jin Ling.
However, before Xu Qiuqian could say anything, Gu Jiao immediately said, "Sister Qiuqian, let me out."
Xu Qiuqian was stunned.
"But you have just established your foundation..."
Gu Jiao said seriously, "If you have to be protected if your cultivation is low, then what's the point of me following you? I know that you are worried that my cultivation is too low and I won't be able to protect myself if something happens to me, but I heard that the cultivations of those people outside are very high. Maybe in their eyes, my foundation-building cultivation is about the same as Qiu Qian's golden elixir cultivation?"
“…”
Xu Qiuqian thought about it and felt that Gu Jiao was right.
Moreover, she couldn't always keep them under her wings and prevent them from experiencing the ups and downs just because of their low cultivation level.
"Oh well."
"I'll come along too." Shan Miaomiao also said, "Aren't you guys here to look for Mu Lingzi? As a water spirit girl, I should naturally do my part."
Xu Qiuqian was surprised.
"Do you really want to go out? It's very dangerous outside, and your injuries haven't healed yet."
Although there is no danger at present, she always has a feeling that a storm is coming, and feels that all forces seem to be brewing something, otherwise this formation would have no meaning to exist.
What's more, she has not figured out until now what the purpose of this illusion of the former fairyland is.
Shan Miaomiao raised her head, quite proudly: "I took an eighth-grade Huiyuan Pill. My external injuries have healed, and my internal injuries are also being repaired. But internal injuries can't be healed in a short time. I can't waste everything because of that."
Gu Jiao, who was standing next to her, heard this and looked at Shan Miaomiao in confusion.
"Why waste what?"
Zhu Yichen said from the side: "It should be a case of throwing the baby out with the bathwater."
Xu Qiuqian was still curious about why Shan Miaomiao suddenly changed his mind.
"Yes, yes, that's it!" Shan Miaomiao responded repeatedly, "I've figured it out. I can't escape. Instead of running away like this, I might as well face it bravely! Anyway, I've died once!"
"Wow! Sister Shan, you are so awesome! When I'm in danger, Sister Shan will protect me!" Gu Jiao said with a slightly exaggerated expression.
Shan Miaomiao became even more proud.
"Ahem, no problem. Don't worry. We have been together for so long. I have already considered you my sister. I will definitely protect you well."
"Uh-huh!"
Xu Qiuqian: “…”
Great, no need to guess why.
She felt that it was largely because of Gu Jiao that Shan Miaomiao changed her mind.
But I didn't expect that Dan Miaomiao would fall for it.
Xu Qiuqian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but what she couldn't have expected was that Gu Jiao would actually say such a thing. She glanced at Gu Jiao, who seemed a little embarrassed as well, without the exaggerated expression she had just had. She lowered her head, with a slight blush from her cheeks to her ears.
So, Zhu Yichen was temporarily left in the jade pendant space, watching the three people leave.
After the three people disappeared, he looked at Qingming next to him.
Qingming seemed to have noticed something and looked at him, tilting his head to look at him in confusion, as if asking him what was wrong.
"You've been left here by your master and the others. Don't you feel lonely?" He joked leisurely.
“Squeak…”
"I don't understand what you're saying. If you're lonely, just nod once. If you're not lonely, nod twice."
Qingming nodded twice, hesitated for a moment, and nodded again.
"What does this mean?"
“Squeak…”
"Hmm? Lonely or not?"
Qingming nodded once, then twice.
“…”Forget it, what is he talking about with a spirit beast here?
Zhu Yichen sat down, closed his eyes and began to practice.
Qingming stared at Zhu Yichen for a long time without moving his eyes.
It didn't know why Zhu Yichen asked it this question.
Loneliness is a very unfamiliar word to it.
Since birth, it has been accompanied by the people of the Yi family. For it, before it met the patriarch, darkness, fear and pain occupied everything.
Later, after it was rescued by the patriarch and brought back to Shaoli Island, its fear and pain were dispelled.
The darkness gradually left it.
With Zhizhi and Banjie, it is very happy.
It has always had company since it was born, so it is not alone.
But then it nodded again, because it knew that the patriarch was doing something very important outside and it couldn't help him, so it could only wait and think in this jade pendant space.
If you think too much and have no one to play with, you will indeed feel lonely.
But that feeling is rare.
Really very little!
Just a little bit of loneliness.
Since being rescued by the patriarch, it has been happy every day! But the reason why it nodded was because it did feel a little lonely. It couldn't ignore it just because of one little thing. This would be bad. It would not lie to the patriarch, and it would not lie to the patriarch's apprentice either.
But it was also surprised.
Because no one has ever cared whether it is lonely...
Qingming stared at Zhu Yichen and thought about it for a long time.
And outside the jade pendant space.
"Let me tell you first, if you don't eat the food here, you won't understand what the people here say, but if you eat, you will be affected."
"What effect?"
"You will have a wrong perception of this place and think that this is the immortal world after ascending."
Shan Miaomiao's eyes widened: "How could this be the immortal world after ascending!" She looked around at the scenery and said, "This place is not much different from other places."
"Well, it is indeed like this in Guiyuan Palace, but you will know it outside Xiandu. It is not bad. Besides, I am just an immortal servant, so my residence is naturally not as good as others."
Shan Miaomiao curled her lips.
"Even if it's a fairy servant, it can't be this bad, right? It's not even as good as the room we have on Shaoli Island."
Gu Jiao nodded: "That's right!"
Xu Qiuqian smiled helplessly.
"You need a token to enter and exit Guiyuan Hall, and it would be bad if you run into other people. You should stay in my room first."
"So what can we do?"
