When Bei Yan woke up, it was already Chen Shi (7-9 AM), which wasn't late, but Jun Lin was nowhere to be seen in the tent.
Bei Yan didn't care. He had already repaid the favor. Next, he just needed to prepare an escape route!
After finishing his breakfast to his heart's content, Bei Yan walked to the tent entrance with a smile.
"Miss, Lord Fengjun has given instructions..." The two celestial soldiers thought she was about to leave, so they extended their sword hilts to stop Bei Yan.
Bei Yan pushed the hilt of the immortal weapon away with his hand, and a friendly smile appeared on his handsome face:
"I know, I know. I don't want to go out. I just want to chat with you guys. I'm so bored inside by myself. Is that okay?"
Bei Yan was extremely beautiful, and her big smile made her already pretty face even more dazzling.
The two celestial soldiers hesitated for a while before nodding. Lord Fengjun said that the girl couldn't leave the tent, but he didn't say that they couldn't chat with her.
Seeing that the two celestial soldiers had agreed, Bei Yan's smile became even brighter. "My lord, no, has Lord Feng gone to the battlefield?"
“Yes, young lady,” one of the celestial soldiers replied shyly.
"Oh~ Isn't Lord Feng Jun amazing?" Bei Yan blinked, looking innocent and bewildered.
"Of course, Lord Fengjun is the most powerful immortal in our immortal realm among the younger generation!" The tone was full of admiration.
Bei Yan pursed his lips, but in order to get the information he wanted, he had to lie to the two immortal soldiers and talk about how outstanding and heaven-defying Jun Lin was.
Once the atmosphere was just right, Bei Yan casually remarked, "Hey, I've heard that the Dragon Clan's palace in the Demon Realm is incredibly magnificent. Have you ever seen it?"
The two celestial soldiers shook their heads in unison: "Girl, you're overthinking it. How could we possibly see that? We're on the northwestern border of the demon realm."
Border... border... border...
Bei Yan: "..." She felt that she could still be saved.
He swallowed hard. It was alright; at least he knew he was on the northwestern border.
Bei Yan, who was full of plans to escape, never expected that before he could even carry out his plan, someone else would do it for him.
Around noon, Bei Yan sat cross-legged on the table where Jun Lin usually sat, biting the tip of a calligraphy brush, his brows furrowed. Upon closer inspection, the Xuan paper was covered with crooked and incomprehensible scribbles.
As soon as Qingyao approached the tent, she saw this scene, and her watery eyes revealed her utter contempt.
Taking advantage of Bei Yan's inattention, she composed herself, revealed a gentle smile, and whispered:
"What are you drawing, young lady?"
Bei Yan was engrossed in thinking about the escape route when Qing Yao suddenly spoke, startling him.
Afraid that Qingyao would discover her intention to run away, she subconsciously tried to crumple the paper into a ball and hide it.
Looking down at the scribbles on the rice paper, Bei Yan awkwardly touched his nose.
This... I can't even understand it myself.
"Nothing, nothing, just drawing for fun when I was bored, haha."
Bei Yan laughed it off, and Qing Yao didn't pursue the matter further. She had come with important business to attend to.
He smiled and said, "I knew you'd be bored staying in the tent alone, so I was planning to take you for a walk around the neighborhood. I just don't know if you'd be willing."
Bei Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he grabbed Qing Yao's hand and nodded vigorously: "I'm willing! I'm more than willing!"
Qingyao was caught off guard by Bei Yan's strong reaction and stared blankly at him for a moment.
Then Bei Yan said sincerely, "Sister, you are truly a beautiful and kind-hearted fairy!"
She was just worried about not being able to leave the tent, and here she was, a godsend!
