When Mu Huan woke up, it was already the next day. The sunlight outside the window shone on her body, and her whole body was warm. There was also the familiar sound of cicadas and the familiar furnishings in the house, all of which told Mu Huan that she was back!
"Ah! I'm back, I'm really back!" Mu Huan pinched her thigh hard, and the pain made her teeth itch. It seemed that she was really back and not dreaming!
Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Liang Ci walked in, dressed in white, against the sunlight. His long black hair was lightly tied up and spread flat on his back. He was a handsome man, truly unparalleled in the world! Mu Huan, who loved beauty, couldn't help but stare at him again. He had always been obsessed with the beauty of his beautiful master, but he was still fascinated by him again and again.
"Master!" Mu Huan put on her shoes and got out of bed. Like a bird returning to its nest, she threw herself into Liang Ci's arms, almost spilling the hot soup in Liang Ci's bowl. Mu Huan sniffed hard, and the beautiful master still had that familiar fragrance. It smelled good and reassuring!
"You're so grown up, but you're still so impatient." Liang Ci scolded with a smile, but his tone was full of doting.
"Drink the soup first. It's good for your health."
Mu Huan raised his head, let go of Liang Ci, and took the bowl from Mu Liang Ci's hand. Adhering to the idea of deep feelings, Mu Huan drank the whole bowl of soup in one breath, and sighed in his heart that the cooking skills of the beautiful master were getting better and better.
"Why are you drinking so quickly? No one is competing with you!" Liang Ci reached out and gently wiped away the soup that remained on the corner of Mu Huan's mouth with his sleeve.
Mu Huan was a little embarrassed. Could she say that her real thought was actually because she was really hungry? She didn't know how long she had slept in that hall. She only knew that she could feel her stomach growling the moment she woke up. Even the fainting on her way back was due to hunger.
"By the way, Master, weren't we supposed to be in the secret realm for a trial? Why are we all out again, and even on the fighting stage?"
"Something happened in the secret realm, and the elders of the academy took great pains to rescue everyone." However, they saved everyone, but not you. Fortunately, you finally came back!
"Something happened again?" Why was it that every time they went to a place, something would happen there? If the first and second times were just coincidences, it would be fine, but the continuous occurrences made people wonder if there was someone behind this whole thing!
"At present, we have already started to have people investigate!" Liang Ci didn't really care about these things, but if Mu Huan wanted to know, then he would definitely want to learn more. It can be seen that Mu Huan actually cares about the land that gave birth to her and raised her.
So, even though he doesn't like it, he still has to pretend to like it.
"That's good!" Mu Huan nodded and yawned. What was going on? I felt like I was always wanting to sleep. I was so sleepy, but before Mu Huan could figure out why I was so sleepy, my body made a very honest move and almost fell to the ground.
Liang Ci reached out in time and hugged Mu Huan into his arms.
Looking at Mu Huan breathing evenly in his arms, Liang Ci hurriedly checked Mu Huan's physical condition.
"How could it be?" Liang Ci frowned. Why did her soul suddenly become so fragile? What had happened? But now, Liang Ci didn't have time to think too much. He could only find a way to help her soul recover. Otherwise, there would be many more times in the future when she might faint at any time like today.
Liang Ci picked up Mu Huan horizontally. The little girl was very light, which made him feel like he was going to give her another snack. His hands hurt from holding her.
He gently placed it on the bed. He might have to go out for a while to help Mu Huan find some spiritual medicine to nourish her soul. However, he was still a little worried about leaving Mu Huan here alone.
"Qingming!"
There was a current of air fluctuating in the air, and in the blink of an eye, a cold man dressed in blue-black knelt in front of Liang Ci, with empty eyes, but a tone of extremely respectful.
"Protect her. If anything happens, you know the consequences."
These were all puppets he had crafted, imbued with his own essence and blood, so Liang Ci wasn't worried. With him around, nothing would happen to Mu Huan. However, there were always contingencies, and he couldn't afford those contingencies, so he had to make all the arrangements before leaving.
"Yes, sir!"
Puppets are emotionless. They obey their masters' orders because they have instructions in their heads. And almost every puppet has the master's essence and blood superimposed on it, so there is no need to worry about betrayal. If betrayal occurs, they will naturally explode.
Liang Ci left with peace of mind. He couldn't yet figure out the cause of Mu Huan's current physical condition, so the only thing he could do was to quickly nurture her soul. Nurturing a soul required many precious natural treasures, and natural treasures were generally very dangerous, so he had to go on this trip.
After Liang Ci left, Qing Ming stood guard outside the courtyard where Mu Huan was resting, very conscientiously and responsibly, standing as straight as a pine tree. He was like a well-trained soldier, standing still for hours, motionless, and not feeling the slightest bit of fatigue.
During Mu Huan's rest period, Tan Tai Luo and a few others came several times, and Hua Ling, who wanted to meet Liang Ci, also came several times, but they were all turned away by the fair and selfless Qing Ming, and the rejection was firm and decisive without any reason.
By the time Mu Huan finally woke up, another day had passed. A damaged soul has a major drawback: it can make you extremely tired, prone to fainting or falling asleep. That's why Liang Ci was so anxious to find something that could nourish Mu Huan's soul.
“Crack!”
When Mu Huan pushed open the door, he saw a tall figure. At first, he thought it was a visitor looking for his beautiful master, but the other person turned around when he heard the door open.
This person, oh no, this puppet! She recognized him. He was the one her master had asked to protect her for a while when she was away on a long journey. But for some reason, he suddenly disappeared without a word.
"You are Qingming, right?" Why do you look even dumber than before?
"Yes! Little master!" Qingming lowered his head.
Young Master?! Uh, "Did Master go on a business trip again?"
"Yes, little master!"
"Ghostly little master, are you addicted to calling me that, or is this the only thing you can say?" Mu Huan couldn't help but complain in his heart, but he still didn't say it out loud.
"Well, I have to go out now. You should guard in the dark like I said before." She didn't dare to show off outside with such a big puppet. A big tree attracts wind and people will gossip about it.
"Yes, young master!" Qingming hid well!
Mu Huan was too tired to complain about the five words "forever" that he said. It would be better for him to wait for the day when his master comes back and let him make some changes!
