"Furthermore, Chu Yan gained some insights into the meaning of the Pure World Ice Lotus yesterday. She can take this opportunity to go back and cultivate in seclusion to consolidate her understanding. I can also guide her from the side. If she follows you all the way, she will be delayed by various court affairs. After all, we have been to the secret realm before. If we go to the capital, many things will become uncontrollable."
Chu Chuyan blinked. Her master used to be very sparing with words and quite indifferent to others, but he actually said so much to Azu for the first time. It seems that he really cares about her and loves her because of her.
Zu'an knew she was telling the truth and nodded: "Alright, I'll come pick you up after I get to the capital and settle things down."
Yan Xuehen's heart skipped a beat. She thought to herself, "Oh no! What do you mean by 'pick us up'?"
She secretly glanced at Chu Chuyan and, seeing that she didn't seem to notice anything amiss, breathed a sigh of relief.
No, I need to stay away from this guy. If I stay near him, he'll break my hard-earned "Supreme Forgetfulness" technique sooner or later.
Feeling increasingly uneasy, she simply walked away to leave the young couple some alone time.
Chu Chuyan was initially somewhat resentful that he always seemed to have ambiguous relationships with other girls after they hadn't seen each other for a while, and she wanted him to keep himself pure.
But given her personality, she couldn't bring herself to say it.
In the end, all the words he wanted to say turned into something else: "Grandpa, the Qin family will most likely be implicated in the Zishan incident, so I'll have to ask you for help. Especially Youzhao, who has suffered so much from this ordeal, I wonder what kind of blow she has taken to her. Please take care of her."
Zu An laughed and said, "Don't worry, You Zhao is your sister, so she's my sister. I will definitely take good care of her. I will also help the Qin family."
She probably didn't know how serious the Qin family's situation was, but there was no need to tell her. Her cultivation method required focused practice, and these trivial matters would easily distract her.
Chu Chuyan nodded, glanced at him before leaving, then suddenly turned around and threw herself into his arms, holding him tightly.
"Chu Yan, what's wrong?" Zu An didn't expect her, who was always cold and aloof, to be so proactive. After hugging her back, he subconsciously looked at Yan Xuehen on the other side.
The other person had a frosty expression, revealing no emotional fluctuation.
Zuan also felt a chill run down his spine; double the happiness meant double the trouble.
Chu Chuyan didn't answer him, but instead bit his shoulder hard.
Then, amidst his astonished gaze, he jogged away.
"Sister Yan, what happened to her?" Just then, Yan Xuehen walked over, and Zu An took the opportunity to ask.
"You're always out there flirting with other women. It's good that she's venting her frustrations," Yan Xuehen said coldly. Not to mention Chu Yan, even she herself wanted to bite him hard.
Every woman around him is like a goddess in the hearts of countless people. Anyone who gets one of them would cherish her and be afraid of breaking her. How could he dare to provoke other women?
But that's exactly what he did.
If he is a despicable, shameless, unscrupulous scoundrel who is purely blinded by beauty, then it's not so difficult to deal with him. Just cut ties with him or even kill him outright.
But after getting to know him, she learned that he had many things going on with each woman, experienced various hardships together, and were willing to give their lives for each other in the face of life-or-death crises. The relationship between them developed naturally, and she couldn't find any reason to blame him.
Chu Yan probably feels the same way...
Pshaw, what am I thinking!
"Never again." Yan Xuehen felt her cheeks burning. If she stayed any longer, she would embarrass herself. She coldly uttered these words and quickly flew away into the distance.
Just as Zu An was about to give chase, Zhang Zijiang suddenly ran over: "Lord Zu, the princess is demanding to see you."
"I won't see you." Zu'an was a little annoyed and casually refused.
Zhang Zijiang hesitated for a moment before continuing, "She said she has a huge secret to tell you, and you'll definitely regret it if you don't go."
Zu An frowned. What earth-shattering secret could make Zhao Xiaodie so certain?
Could it be that the King of Qi has some secrets?
Seeing that Yan Xuehen had already gone far away, he had no choice but to go to the separate courtyard where Zhao Xiaodie was being held.
The princess, who was usually so radiant, now looked like a butterfly with its wings torn off. She slumped over the table, staring blankly out the window, her demeanor颓废 and her eyes lost.
"Princess, what brings you here?" Zu An coughed lightly, not entering the house, but standing at the door to ask.
