Li Shiqian looked very weak, her lips were a little pale, and she smiled gently: "Qiu Qian, long time no see, did you miss me?"
"certainly."
Xu Qiuqian stood not far away and smiled in return.
But Li Shiqian's expression showed hesitation, and after hesitation she sighed, seeming to want to say something but stopped.
After she hesitated to speak, Xu Qiuqian took the initiative to walk over and hugged Li Shiqian.
The familiar breath and embrace made Li Shiqian inexplicably want to cry, but it also made her understand that even if more people appeared around Xu Qiuqian, her attitude towards her would not change.
Li Shiqian hugged Xu Qiuqian back.
Ding Lan was watching from the side, feeling very shaken.
Given their current situation, would Shi Qian agree? But if Shi Qian disagreed, it would be very dangerous for her...
After a while, the two let go.
Li Shiqian was embarrassed and asked, "How do you know I want to hug you?"
"Isn't it always like this before?" Xu Qiuqian said helplessly.
Li Shiqian is a very passionate person, and the way she expresses her love and longing is naturally very direct. She will develop a mental demon because of her, which represents how important she is in her mind.
It also represents her inner timidity.
She also cherishes her friendship with Li Shiqian, so naturally she would not watch Li Shiqian like this.
"That's right. Look at my memory. I've forgotten everything after not seeing you for a long time."
In fact, I was just afraid that the two of us would become strangers.
Xu Qiuqian knew what she was thinking, but did not expose her. She just said, "Let's go in first. You haven't recovered yet."
"Okay, let's go in then."
The three of them entered the room.
"Just now I heard Xiao Lan say that you have something to tell me, what is it?"
Xu Qiuqian hummed: "I knew it all before outside. The reason you developed a demon in your heart when you formed your elixir was because of me."
"No, you misunderstood. Xiao Lan must have lied to you. My inner demon is really not because of you."
"Why is that?"
"Because..." Li Shiqian wanted to find another excuse, but under Xu Qiuqian's gaze, she slowly fell silent.
After a long while, she whispered, "Well, it's indeed because of you, but it's not your fault. I'm too stubborn and always think too much."
Even at this time, she didn't want Xu Qiuqian to feel guilty because of her words.
"You know, I don't care about these." Xu Qiuqian said slowly.
Li Shiqian smiled bitterly, "Of course I know, but I can't enjoy your protection with peace of mind, Qiu Qian, I'm already far behind you. If I fall behind again, then I will have to rely on you to protect me in the future, and maybe others will think of me as your weakness. I don't want you to be laughed at because of my low level of cultivation. Qiu Qian, do you understand? You must not understand."
She didn't understand why she was ridiculed and told that she was not worthy of being a grocery store clerk when she was in Youling City.
Even though she proved herself, it still left a mark in her heart.
So in addition to helping with the grocery store, she practiced whenever she had free time. Besides wanting revenge, she also didn't want to be left too far behind by Xu Qiuqian, especially since Zhu Yichen and Gu Jiao appeared later.
But she discovered in despair that no matter how hard she tried, she could not catch up.
But at that time, she was thinking more about revenge.
Until they were chased by Zhao Qin's master, Shen En rushed to rescue them, but was accidentally trapped in a secret realm, so he asked about Xu Qiuqian's recent situation.
I learned that Xu Qiuqian had done so much since coming to Xiyue Continent and was admired by so many people. Although he didn't practice much, his practice speed was very fast.
Later, he learned from Chen En that everyone around Xu Qiuqian was in the Nascent Soul stage.
She was anxious and concerned, and wanted to catch up, so it slowly became a demon in her heart.
"I understand." Xu Qiuqian reached out and held Li Shiqian's hand. "I understand what you said, Shiqian, but you are thinking in the wrong way."
Li Shiqian was puzzled: "Is my thinking wrong?"
"Well, I cultivate fast because my spiritual roots are here, and the people around me have high cultivation. They are actually attracted by the teleportation array and the things in the grocery store. If not, they probably wouldn't look down on me."
"No..." Li Shiqian shook her head.
She knew that even if Xu Qiuqian didn't have these things, she could still impress people and still attract so many people to her.
Xu Qiuqian was helpless: "Really."
But Li Shiqian still insisted on her own opinion.
She was still hesitating, but at this moment, she suddenly understood.
Ding Lan's worries were right.
Li Shiqian is now so stubborn that she is a little paranoid. She doesn't even believe what you explain and only believes what she thinks.
If she continues like this, sooner or later she will develop inner demons because of all her imaginations, and ultimately be destroyed by them.
In fact, the inner demon has already been born.
Xu Qiuqian let out a long sigh and glanced at Ding Lan beside him.
"Shi Qian, I do have something I want to tell you. No, I should say, I have a favor to ask of you."
"What's up?"
"You know, Kirishima's Jihan Pavilion is now my subordinate, and Chen Wu's organization is also in Kirishima, but the two organizations are not convinced by each other."
Li Shiqian nodded.
"I heard Xiao Lan say before that they were not convinced by each other and felt that their own organization would be more useful to you. They even quarreled over this matter. Whenever members of their respective organizations met, they would quarrel and some even came to blows."
"Yes, this gives me a headache, but I have more important things on hand. I originally planned to let Yi Chen go, but Yi Chen has been in seclusion recently to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, and I don't have anyone else I trust."
Li Shiqian was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
"So you want me to come over?"
Xu Qiuqian nodded.
"But if you let me go, what can I do? With my cultivation level, it seems that I can't do anything. Even if I lead them, no one will believe me."
Hearing this, Xu Qiuqian sighed again in his heart.
Before she said anything, Li Shiqian already started to get timid.
"No, your ability is not in command. I asked you to go over because I want you to help me ease the relationship between them."
"Ease? How do you ease?"
"It's up to you. I don't know much about this kind of thing. By the way, let Ding Lan go over to assist you. You have been together before, so you know each other better. Shi Qian, can you help me?"
Li Shiqian lowered her eyes, hiding the emotions in them.
After a moment, she raised her eyes and smiled: "Okay, since Qiu Qian asked me to do this, I am naturally willing to help!"
Xu Qiuqian also laughed.
"Then I'll trouble you."
"So when should I go? Now?"
"Not now. You just woke up and your internal injuries haven't recovered yet. How about you stay here for a while and go back when you're almost recovered? Besides, we haven't seen each other for so long. Don't you have anything you want to tell me?"
Hearing this, Li Shiqian hurriedly said: "How is it possible? I have a lot to tell you. You don't know how Xiaolan and I killed Zhao Qin. I will tell you slowly..."
