Just then, Zu An had a sudden thought and took out a jade slip from his pocket.
It emitted a warm glow intermittently; this was a jade slip he had made earlier, and the glow indicated that a message had been received.
He opened it and saw a pretty little avatar flashing.
The above is a selfie of Bi Linglong. She is not wearing her usual Crown Princess or Empress attire, but a soft silk dress. She is less radiant than usual, but has a more relaxed and leisurely feel.
Zuan couldn't help but smile; she had actually managed to get the selfie function, which he was still testing, working out.
"Azu, do you think my new profile picture is pretty?"
“Beautiful~” Zuan casually wrote on the jade slip, and the characters turned into flashing light spots and merged into the jade slip.
He and Shenxuzi improved the communication jade slip some time ago, but they still couldn't solve the problem of stable real-time communication.
Sometimes it was normal, but more often than not, they just couldn't receive any messages, and the two of them couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Oh, I actually got in touch with you! I thought you wouldn't receive this again," Bi Linglong's joy could be felt even through the screen. "So, do you think I look prettier dressed like this, or in the Empress's palace dress, or perhaps in the Crown Princess's gown?"
You look beautiful no matter what you wear.
"Tch, no sincerity at all. You have to choose one: which outfit looks the prettiest?"
"Actually, she looks prettier when she's not wearing it."
"Ugh~~"
After a while, Bi Linglong's message reappeared in the jade slip: "Grandpa, why don't you make an avatar?"
"I haven't had time yet, and I don't think it's necessary."
"Of course it's necessary, they miss you."
Upon seeing these words, Zu An felt a warmth in his heart, and the gloom in his heart was swept away.
The past is the past; it's more important to cherish the people in front of you now.
"Take a picture and show it to me now. Oh, and take a picture of your surroundings too."
Zu An glanced at Zhang Zitong sleeping in the distance and immediately broke out in a cold sweat. It seemed he was going to check up on her.
He casually took a picture and changed it to his profile picture. He had initially enabled the profile picture function to make his chats more visually appealing.
Yes, I absolutely must not enable video chat in the future, otherwise I'll be checked up on at any time, which would be like shooting myself in the foot.
"The surrounding environment is quite nice. It feels like this arrangement was done by a woman."
Zuan: "..."
A woman's intuition is truly terrifying; I never imagined she could see this.
"I'm in the Demonic Cult." He then briefly recounted the events to her.
"I never expected that those demons would actually infiltrate the Demonic Sect. I don't know how many people in the world have been bewitched and replaced by them. But let's talk about these important matters face to face when we get back. I don't want this precious time to be disturbed by these things."
Zuan said with a hint of helplessness, "This isn't even an important matter."
"Of course not, chatting with you is the important thing. For example, what do you think of my new name?"
Bi Linglong changed her name to "Linglong Dice with Red Beans".
Zuan: "???"
This woman actually learned how to choose a screen name without any instruction.
He knew that this was a poem he had given to the other person, and the next line was "Do you know how deep my longing for you is?" Clearly, the other person was using this to express their feelings of longing.
"I miss you too." Zu'an felt especially warm after writing these words.
"Then why don't you change your name to 'Do you know how deeply I miss you?'"
Zuan: "???"
Are you kidding me? If I change my name to this, how am I supposed to explain it to other girls when they see it?
I've just created a chaotic scene, and I really don't want to create a whole bunch more.
"Huh, why can't I see any messages? Did I get disconnected again? It seems that the communication jade slip function is still not perfect."
In the palace, Bi Linglong was lying on the bed, her hand supporting her chin, a sweet smile on her face. Upon seeing this news, her smile froze instantly:
"Huh, did you disconnect? I can clearly see your messages."
"Azu?"
"Ugh, that annoying broken jade slip, it just had to break down at this crucial moment."
...
Seeing the flood of messages, Zu'an in Qiuchi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. In that instant, he suddenly felt that the fact that the jade slip could not communicate reliably was not necessarily a bad thing.
At this moment, the avatar of a cute girl in a super short leather skirt flashed, and her name was "Wei Wu Wields the Whip".
Zuan: "???"
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, I just had a fight with Youzhao recently, and I beat her so badly that she knelt down and begged for mercy," Chu Huanzhao excitedly recounted.
"Is it because she beat you so badly that you had to beg for mercy on your knees?" Zu'an asked with suspicion. He knew that Xiao Zhao was a notorious cultivation failure, and her cultivation level was far inferior to You Zhao's.
"Tch, how could that be? Ever since you helped me improve my aptitude last time, I've been cultivating by leaps and bounds lately. Beating up that You Zhao guy is a piece of cake."
Although he couldn't see her face, Zuan could easily imagine the smug look on her face.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Zu'an couldn't help but laugh. This was good; the two sisters competing with each other would actually help them improve their cultivation.
"By the way, why do you have such a lousy name?"
"Broken? Brother-in-law, you once said that you admired a man named Emperor Wu of Wei, and that his best weapon was a whip. I also use a whip, so I chose this domineering name. I feel that this will enhance my prestige and make me more powerful in my cultivation."
Zuan: "..."
How could this silly girl know that these two whips are not the same thing at all?
