Qin Qianlu introduced the people on both sides to each other. At this moment, the originally spacious space in the cave felt somewhat cramped, with everyone huddled together.
Qin Qianluo looked at Feng Qingyun, silently asking in her heart, "Yunbao, where is the exit of this cave?"
Feng Qingyun ran and jumped into Qin Qianluo's arms, thinking to herself, "Luo Bao, go a little further ahead, there's a mechanism. Open it and we can get out, but there are people at the exit."
Qin Qianluo nodded slightly, her bright eyes sweeping over everyone in the cave before leading them into her personal space.
The lively and cheerful Ling Xue was like a cheerful lark, chattering excitedly as she introduced Yao Guang and the others to Ling Wei and Qian Chao.
Ling Wei and the others were aware of Yao Guang and the others' arrival because they had been watching the light screen.
After confirming that their master was safe and sound, they chatted enthusiastically with the new faces, and the space was filled with laughter and joy.
Yao Guang stood tall and straight behind Qin Qianluo, like an ancient pine tree, holding the ice-blue sword.
The sword gleamed coldly, reflecting her stern and vigilant expression, showing no sign of letting her guard down.
Seeing this, Qin Qianluo gently patted Yaoguang's shoulder, a smile as warm as the spring sun blooming on her face.
She smiled faintly and said, "Relax, this place is safe and there are no outsiders here. Why don't you take everyone to choose their own accommodations so that everyone can settle down as soon as possible?"
Yao Guang nodded obediently. She had been observing Ling Wei and the others discreetly, thinking to herself that although they had some martial arts foundation, their strength was too weak.
It was truly difficult to shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting our master, but now that we have arrived, our master's safety is finally more secure.
As she pondered this, Yao Guang led the sect members to choose their rooms. Their figures gradually disappeared into the distance, and their conversations faded into the depths of the space.
Qin Qianlu then looked at An Yue and said gently, "Sister An Yue, you can stay in the space for now. I can go out by myself."
Upon hearing this, Dark Moon frowned slightly, her face showing worry, and she was about to ask to accompany him.
Qin Qianluo then said, "Don't worry, this place is still within the Summer Palace area, so I don't think there will be any danger."
You can take this opportunity to get to know them better, so you can look out for each other in the future.
Dark Moon had no choice but to nod in agreement, though she was indeed quite impressed by the superb martial arts skills of Yao Guang and the others.
Thinking that if he could spar with them, he would definitely improve his martial arts skills and be able to better protect his master.
Feng Qingyun had already run far away like a happy little bird following behind Yao Guang. For some reason, she felt a strange sense of familiarity with Yao Guang.
Logically speaking, she was a system, so this sense of familiarity puzzled her, and she was eager to find out the reason.
Therefore, it followed Yao Guang closely, never leaving her side, like a little shadow.
Seeing that everyone was getting along well, Qin Qianluo felt relieved and left the space, slowly walking towards the exit in the direction Feng Qingyun had previously indicated.
She moved with light, careful steps, and soon successfully activated the mechanism.
With a soft "click" sound, the exit slowly appeared.
Qin Qianluo took a deep breath and slowly poked her head out. Unexpectedly, she met the eyes of Empress Su Liyue, who looked terrified.
In an instant, Qin Qianluo felt her head buzz, and she froze on the spot, her face full of embarrassment and at a loss.
Her cheeks quickly rose in temperature, becoming burning hot, and she even closed her eyes in a panic, inwardly groaning in despair.
At this moment, Su Liyue was changing her clothes, wearing only a beautifully embroidered bodice, the silk threads of which shimmered softly in the candlelight.
Fortunately, two quick-witted palace maids reacted swiftly and covered the Empress's body with clothing, preventing an even more embarrassing situation.
Because the Empress was changing her clothes, she did not summon the guards, which is why Qin Qianluo was not immediately surrounded.
Having lived in the palace for a long time, Su Liyue possessed extraordinary composure. Although she was terrified, she did not lose her composure and scream.
Only after recognizing Qin Qianluo's familiar face did her anxious heart finally calm down a little.
Seeing the little girl turn her head away with her face flushed and her eyes tightly closed, Su Liyue's anger, which had been rising in her heart, miraculously dissipated, and the corners of her mouth even turned up slightly.
She said softly, "The way King Jinrui Zhao made his entrance was truly unexpected."
Qin Qianlu coughed awkwardly a few times, the sound of which seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet palace.
She was extremely anxious, like an ant on a hot pan, not knowing how to deal with this awkward situation. All she could do was call out in her heart, "Feng Qingyun!!"
Why didn't you tell me the Empress was changing clothes? How am I supposed to explain this now?
"You suddenly appeared in the Empress's palace, right here on the bed! Why didn't you say so sooner?"
Upon hearing this question, Feng Qingyun trembled slightly, as if struck by an electric current.
She quickly looked at the scene on the light screen, raised her small hand and waved it frantically to turn off the light screen so that no one else could see this embarrassing scene.
At the same time, she timidly replied, "Luo Bao, don't be angry. I thought the Empress had come back to retrieve something, so I didn't continue watching. I didn't expect it to turn out like this."
Otherwise, Luo Bao could say that he discovered a secret passage and only came in out of curiosity.
"Don't worry, Luo Bao, I've already turned off the light screen in the space. No one can see what's happening now except for those present."
Upon hearing this weak and feeble explanation, Qin Qianluo's anger intensified. She dared to say that even the Empress wouldn't believe this excuse.
