"Ningning, where in the human world are we going?" Da Niu asked, carrying all the luggage on his back as he ran up to Sui Yi.
"I heard that the Xuanfeng Sect is recruiting new disciples in a few days, and I plan to go there and coast along," Sui Yi said casually, her hands behind her head.
Ah Xing: →_→, you lie without thinking. You clearly only went to Xuanfeng Sect because the female lead was there and you wanted to harm her.
"Oh!" The two innocent spirit beasts both agreed. Ningning was different from them; she was so smart and had her own ideas. She should have many benefits in the human world!
"Should we go with you?"
"Hmm! But to avoid your identities being discovered by cultivators, I think it's better if you go into the space."
"Oh! Okay!" Da Niu and Da Jiao listened to Sui Yi, but they were a little reluctant.
"Don't worry, I'll let you out for some fresh air when I have the chance." Seeing the two looking a little dejected, Suiyi smiled and comforted them.
"Ningning, why don't you form a contract with us?" Dajiao thought for a moment. If he formed a contract with her, he would be able to follow her freely.
"No need for a contract, it's unnecessary."
"All right!"
"Here, this is a Breath-Sealing Pill. It can conceal the aura of your spirit beasts. After you take it, you can stay by my side. But there is one condition: do not stray too far from me. If anything happens, you must tell me."
"Great!" The two beasts were delighted. It was so nice to be by her side; there was good food and fun to do.
"Let's get this straight first. I'm dressed as a boy right now, and I'm only twelve years old. You are all my guards. My name is Ci Ning. You have to call me Young Master in front of outsiders, understand?"
"Hmm! And what about it?" Big Horn asked, pointing to Ah Xing, who was sitting on the ox's shoulder like an old man.
"It just follows me like this. I've already masked its special aura, so it'll be fine with me."
"Alright! Young master, there are people ahead!" Big Horn's nose was very sharp, and he smelled the scent of people.
Ah Xing: Big Horn, your nose is as sharp as a dog's.
"You're the one with the dog's nose!" She rolled her eyes and ignored the foul-mouthed guy.
Ah Xing: ...Frustrated. These two haven't cooperated with me at all on this journey. I can't even find someone to argue with. Boring!
“Let’s go take a look!” Sui Yi gestured with her chin in that direction, signaling the two to follow her.
They hadn't walked far when they saw several people sitting around a fire in an open meadow. They looked like they were resting and had been traveling for several days.
Sui Yi walked over there and heard footsteps. The group of people sitting there, except for a boy in fine clothes, all stood up and looked around warily. Only after seeing Sui Yi and her companions did their guard down a little.
"Phew! What a scare! It was just a baby and his entourage."
"Young man, where are you from?" A middle-aged man who was the leader stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and asked.
"Uncle, I'm looking for an inn, but I've walked a long way and haven't seen one. Do you know where there is an inn?" Sui Yi looked up at the middle-aged man with her big, round eyes.
“We also need to find an inn. If the little brother doesn’t mind, he can come with us.” As soon as Sui Yi finished speaking, the little boy in the fine clothes stepped forward and looked at her with a smile.
"Really?"
"Yes!" The boy nodded vigorously, staring intently at Sui Yi. His situation was the same as hers; they had both come alone with two attendants. She wondered what his parents were thinking, how could they let such a cute little brother travel alone through this magical forest?
The boy wore a white jade robe, inlaid with many glass beads and strung with dark gold threads. He exuded nobility and was also very cute. His face was like jade, with big eyes and chubby cheeks. He still had a childlike innocence, but judging from his budding handsomeness, he would definitely grow up to be a handsome man.
The boy was probably thirteen or fourteen years old, a little older than Suiyi. Perhaps because he grew up in a powerful and influential family, he looked a bit mature for his age.
"Little brother, how old are you? What's your name?"
“Me? I’m twelve years old this year, and my name is Ci Ning! What about you?” Sui Yi asked back.
"My name is Ziyou, I'm a year older than you, you can call me brother!" The boy seemed very excited when he heard Suiyi ask him.
"Why are you all alone in the Enchanted Forest? Where are your family?"
Attendant: Young master, there are two guards behind him. Can't you see them?
Da Niu said: That makes sense, because they are not human.
"Isn't Brother Ziyou the same?"
Follower: π_π, young master, you've finally found a friend who's just as blind as you. Are we big guys really that insignificant?
Ah Xing: You're right, you guys are a pile of dog shit!
"Haha! So we're all the same." Ziyou felt even closer to Suiyi because he felt that they were in the same boat.
"Ningning, are you here to participate in the Xuanfeng Sect's disciple recruitment assessment?" Ziyou pulled Suiyi to sit down by the fire and asked curiously.
"Yes! I want to cultivate immortality, so I came here."
"Haha! Me too, we'll have company now! And let me tell you a little secret, I'm really powerful, I can protect you." Ziyou proudly patted his chest and said with a smile.
"Really? What level are you at now?"
"I'm already at the seventh level of Qi Refining!"
"Really? I haven't cultivated yet, so I don't know what level I am." Sui Yi pouted, looking unhappy, which melted Xiao Ziyou's heart. He wished he could give him all the good things to make him happy.
Ah Xing complained: Seriously, owner, please have some shame! You're even trying to fool such a young child. You're becoming more and more shameless and without any bottom line!
"Get out of my way, don't bother me while I'm flirting with that little puppy!"
"Aren't you afraid that your jealous husband will find out and cause a huge uproar in the backyard?"
"My man? He's still nowhere to be found. He's probably waiting for me to rescue him. You're not going to tell him anyway, since he doesn't know." Sui Yi narrowed her eyes, looking at it dangerously.
"Hehe! I'll just watch you court death!" Ah Xing thought to herself, gloating. Did she even know the true identity of the little puppy she was flirting with? Anyway, she felt a sense of familiarity with this little puppy, but she couldn't quite place where she had seen him before.
"It's okay, I'll protect you from now on!" Ziyou patted Suiyi on the shoulder, comforting him.
Sui Yi nodded gratefully and said nothing more!
