Watching Ning Yi cooking in the kitchen, Qi Huai sat obediently at the table and waited.

After a while, Ning Yi came out with the food.

Qi Huai quickly stood up, holding the bowl and actively served Ning Yi rice. "I'll do it, I'll do it!"

Ning Yi sat down and looked at Qi Huai helplessly, "Eat!"

"Hmm." Qi Huai sat down and tasted the food, "Delicious!"

Ning Yi picked up some food and gave it to Qi Huai, "How can it be so exaggerated, as if you have never eaten it before."

"Mmm..." Qi Huai's mouth was full of food, and no one knew what he was saying.

Ning Yi looked at Qi Huai with disdain, "Swallow what's in your mouth first."

"I say, I'm not with you guys all the time, I only ate a few times, how can it be enough?" Qi Huai swallowed the food in his mouth and looked at Ning Yi seriously.

"Hehe!" Ning Yi rolled his eyes at Qi Huai, then lowered his head to eat, no longer paying attention to Qi Huai.

Qi Huai wanted to say something, but suddenly found that Ning Yi was almost finished with the food, and hurried to grab it, "Leave some for me!"

...

"Burp! I'm so full!" Qi Huai burped with satisfaction after finishing his meal.

Ning Yi looked at Qi Huai who wanted to lie down after finishing his meal, walked over and pinched Qi Huai's face, "Go wash the dishes!!"

Qi Huai took out a talisman and threw it on the dishes. In an instant, the dishes became clean and white as new, "It's just a cleaning talisman!"

"Hehe, sorry, I'm a sword cultivator, not like a certain talisman master who likes to use talismans to be lazy." Ning Yi turned around and sat down by the sofa.

"I call this the rational use of resources." Qi Huai also walked over and sat on the sofa, "Besides, we are one person. If you use my current shell, you will do the same." "

Next, I should go back to the Sword Gate." Ning Yi talked about business.

The shell of Ning Yi was created by Qi Huai using the system when he was three years old. Qi Huai set him up as an orphan who was abandoned by his parents on the road and then picked up by the elders of Jianmen. He had a high talent for swordsmanship.

After that, Ning Yi stayed in Jianmen. As time passed, Ning Yi's cultivation became higher and higher, and his fame became greater and greater. Because of his age, people called him the young sword fairy.

"Jianmen! I haven't been there yet." Qi Huai sighed.

Although they shared memories when they first met Ning Yi's vest, and Qi Huai knew what Jianmen looked like, Qi Huai's body had never been there in person.

Seeing Qi Huai's regretful expression, Ning Yi smiled and said, "I'll take you there when I have the chance."

"Forget it, you Jianmen have too many rules, and if I go to Jianmen, I don't know what gossip will spread." Qi Huai rolled his eyes.

Although there are already a lot of gossips about Qi Huai, he still thinks the less the better.

It has been 20 years since he got the system, and Qi Huai has gone from being curious about his shells to being used to them.

"That's right." Ning Yi nodded. Thinking of the gossips and fan fictions about him on the forum, Ning Yi felt a headache.

In fact, there wasn't so much gossip at the beginning. Although Qi Huai and Rong Du had met each other when they were young, they didn't have much contact. Qi Huai and the other shells had never met each other.

Everything started in high school. Before high school, Qi Huai was famous for his appearance, identity and strength, but after high school, he became famous for the gossip about him, Rong Du and Ning Yi.

"Oh!" Qi Huai and Ning Yi sighed at the same time.

After leaving Yanjing University, Gao Yi and others got on a car.

In the car.

"Section Chief, what should we do next?" Ji Meng looked at the records in the notebook in his hand, and then looked at Gao Yi.

"Our mission is just to ask a few questions. Other matters are handled by other departments." Gao Yi leaned back, his face mysterious.

Ji Meng hesitated, "But..."

"Don't worry, Xiao Meng, just listen to the section chief on this matter." Mu Duan interrupted Ji Meng with a smile, not showing any of his previous excitement and anger.

Ji Meng frowned, "Weren't you quite excited before?"

Mu Duan took out a few bottles of drinks and handed them to Ji Meng and Gao Yi, "Do you understand the red cop and white cop?"

"No matter what we think in our hearts, we have to show an attitude on the surface, understand?" Mu Duan took a sip of the drink and continued.

"Oh." Ji Meng nodded, not quite understanding.

Mu Duan looked at Ji Meng and shook his head in his heart, "Ji Meng has too little experience. How can the affairs of these big families be so simple?"

After a while, Gao Yi and his companions returned to the Cultivation Alliance.

Gao Yi and his companions had just returned to the office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs when the Minister of Intelligence came over.

"Chief Gao, thank you for your hard work!" Yuan Fei greeted him with a smile.

Gao Yi cursed in his heart, "This smiling tiger!" He also put on a polite smile on his face, "What is the matter with the former minister?"

"It's been a long time since I last saw Chief Gao. I came to have a cup of tea and chat with him."

Gao Yi smiled, "I don't have any good tea to treat the former minister."

...

Ji Meng was dumbfounded as her own section chief and the former minister argued back and forth.

Finally, Yuan Fei left with the information that Gao Yi and the others brought back, and Gao Yi returned to the office contentedly with the resources given by Yuan Fei.

Ji Meng looked at Mu Duan beside him with a puzzled look, "Didn't the section chief say that we don't care about other things? Why not give the information directly to Director Yuan Fei?"

Mu Duan rubbed Ji Meng's head, "Our departments love each other on the surface, but in fact we still compete privately. After all, there are only so many resources every year."

"Huh?"

Mu Duan smiled, and continued, "The information is to be given to the Intelligence Department, but it can't be given for free. We have to pay some hard work fee."

"Well..."

Looking at Ji Meng who was thinking with his head down, Mu Duan walked to his desk, "Think about it yourself. Remember, listen more, watch more, and talk less."

Just when Qi Huai and Ning Yi were worrying about their own gossip, Qi Huai received a text message:

Come back. - Grandpa

"Uh..." Qi Huai and Ning Yi looked at each other.

"Then I'll go back to my family, so I won't see you off." Qi Huai looked at Ning Yi.

Ning Yi nodded, stood up and picked up his sword, "Well, then I'll go back to the sword gate first, send me a message when you want to merge the soul."

"Okay."

After watching Ning Yi leave, Qi Huai went back to his room to change into more formal clothes, then took out the teleportation talisman and input spiritual power.

A circle of light appeared on the ground, and Qi Huai walked in.

Swish -

in a blink of an eye, Qi Huai arrived at the door of the Qi family's old house.

Seeing Qi Huai, the housekeeper at the door hurriedly came up to him, "Young Master, the Great Elder is waiting for you in the Purple Bamboo Forest."

"I see." Qi Huai nodded to the housekeeper, and then walked towards the Purple Bamboo Forest.

The Purple Bamboo Forest is where Qi Huai used to live. Just because Qi Huai likes purple bamboo, Grandpa Qi specially ordered people to plant a piece of purple bamboo where Qi Huai lives.

Qi Huai's grandfather is the Great Elder of the Qi Family, the previous head of the Qi Family, and can be said to be the real person in charge of the Qi Family.

Since Qi Huai showed his excellent talent for cultivation in the talent test at the age of 5, Qi Huai was taken to the Great Elder of the Qi Family to teach him personally.

In this Qi Family, the Great Elder can be said to be the closest person to Qi Huai.

After turning a few corners, Qi Huai came to the Purple Bamboo Forest.

As soon as he arrived at the Purple Bamboo Forest, Qi Huai saw Grandpa Qi sitting at a stone table playing chess.

"Grandpa." Qi Huai walked over and called out.

Grandpa Qi glanced at Qi Huai, then pointed at the chessboard, "Sit down, play a game with me."

Qi Huai sat opposite Grandpa Qi, picked up the chess pieces and started playing.

After a while, Qi Huai put down the chess pieces and smiled at Grandpa Qi, "I lost. Grandpa is still so awesome."

"Humph! You let me win." Grandpa Qi waved to Qi Huai, "Walk with me."

Qi Huai walked over to help Grandpa Qi up, and walked towards the path in the Purple Bamboo Forest.

After walking for a while, Grandpa Qi looked at Qi Huai who was calm beside him, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"

"Huh?" Qi Huai looked at Grandpa Qi with a puzzled look.

"Don't pretend, I raised you, how could I not know what kind of personality you have?" Grandpa Qi glanced at Qi Huai and continued, "I know you have a lot of ideas, but you must remember that you are the young master of the Qi family, and the Qi family will always be behind you." Qi Huai

was stunned and looked at Grandpa Qi in surprise.

After all, the Qi family is one of the seven great families, and it is impossible for them to be enemies with other families for one person.

Qi Huai knew that Grandpa Qi was good to him, but he didn't expect it to go to this extent.

"Huh, what, are you surprised?" Grandpa Qi looked at Qi Huai who was surprised and snorted lightly.

"After all, I brought you up since you were a child. If I don't protect you, who will?"

Qi Huai came back to his senses and looked at Grandpa Qi with a smile in his eyes, "Thank you, Grandpa, but I can handle it."

"Oh?" Grandpa Qi glanced at Qi Huai and found that he really could do it and was not just showing off, so he didn't say anything more.

Qi Huai knew that Rong Du's fall from the devil would not end so easily, but Rong Du was already in the demon world, and the Cultivation Alliance and the Rong family could not catch him, so there was no need to worry too much.

As for Qi Huai and others who had a close relationship with Rong Du.

Although Qi Huai and Ning Yi were at the scene when Rong Du fell from the devil, and Qi Huai and Rong Du still had that kind of relationship, the Rong family and the Cultivation Alliance could not touch them.

Not to mention, one of them is the young master of the Qi family, and the other is the sword fairy of the Sword Gate.

To touch them would mean to be an enemy of the Qi family and the Sword Sect.

Just because Qi Huai can make those precious talismans and Ning Yi has superb swordsmanship, the Cultivation Alliance and the Rong family will not touch them.

After all, they don't know whether they will need Qi Huai and Ning Yi's help in the future.

After walking with Grandpa Qi in the Purple Bamboo Forest for a while, Grandpa Qi left.

However, Grandpa Qi's words before leaving still made Qi Huai laugh and cry.

Grandpa Qi looked at Qi Huai seriously, "There are so many outstanding beauties and talents in this world. Rong Du is gone, but there are still others. Don't be too sad."

"I..." Qi Huai laughed and looked at Grandpa Qi's back as he left.

Grandpa Qi knew that Qi Huai knew his limits. Since Rong Du had already fallen into the devil, Qi Huai and Rong Du could no longer be together, so he said these words to Qi Huai.

However, the premise of all this is that Qi Huai and Rong Du are two different people.

Because Qi Huai and Rong Du are essentially one person, Qi Huai could only laugh and cry when he heard these words.
