"good."
Nan Muchen only said this, and Chu Qingxuan looked directly into Nan Muchen's eyes, trying to see something in them. His eyes were deep, like a pool of water, and the bottom could not be seen.
"You..." Chu Qingxuan hesitated for a moment, then called out again, before asking softly, "Did I do something wrong?"
Chu Qingxuan's heart sank as she wondered why Nan Muchen's attitude towards her had changed.
Nan Muchen glanced at him indifferently, his cool voice reaching Chu Qingxuan's ears, "You're very good."
This is tantamount to refusing to discuss the topic.
Chu Qingxuan took a step forward, and Nan Muchen's cold gaze fell on her, creating some distance between them.
"I am going into seclusion. During this time, no one is allowed to approach the Begonia Palace without my permission."
"Including you."
Chu Qingxuan pouted, "Oh."
Perhaps she should ask others what happened during this time.
Nan Muchen really went into seclusion, and no one was allowed to approach him. Every time Chu Qingxuan tried to get close, she was blocked by the barrier.
During the time she was away, Lin Zhen was the person who spent the most time with Nan Muchen.
After she came out of the pass, she heard some things about Lin Zhen.
Nan Muchen wanted to groom Lin Zhen to become the sect leader; this was an open secret within the Hanchen Sect.
Chu Qingxuan wasn't interested in the position of sect leader; what she wanted to know was why Nan Muchen had changed his mind.
Inside Chang'an Palace, Lin Zhen, who was preparing to refine pills, was suddenly startled by the sound of the door opening. He turned around abruptly and saw Chu Qingxuan standing aggressively at the door.
Lin Zhen's breath hitched.
Is the junior sister here to challenge us?
Chu Qingxuan raised the corners of her mouth slightly and asked, "Oh, isn't this the future sect leader? What brings you here to refine pills?"
That sarcastic tone.
Lin Zhen immediately stood up, smiling helplessly, "Junior Sister..."
Chu Qingxuan swaggered over and sat down on a stool, then looked at Lin Zhen and said, "I came to see you today because I have something I want to ask you."
Lin Zhen was puzzled, remembering that Nan Muchen had told him that he was the candidate for the next sect leader.
All things considered, his junior sister's cultivation level was higher than his, and she was even more knowledgeable in alchemy.
Could it be that my junior sister found out about this and is going to break off our friendship?
Lin Zhen looked up at Chu Qingxuan, sighed, and said, "Junior Sister, go ahead and ask."
Chu Qingxuan rested her elbows on the table, her chin propped up by her palms, and asked with a frown, "Senior brother, what happened during my seclusion? Why has Master ignored me since I came out?"
Lin Zhen's heart skipped a beat. He had noticed something was wrong when his junior sister came out of seclusion, and he hadn't expected that he had actually guessed it!
He looked at Chu Qingxuan guiltily, "What happened to my martial uncle?"
Chu Qingxuan said, "I found that my master didn't want to talk to me at all. After I came out, he wouldn't allow me to enter the Begonia Palace."
"Um, my martial uncle is probably going into seclusion."
“He used to be in seclusion, but I could still go to the Begonia Palace.”
"Well... this time it's more important."
Chu Qingxuan thought about it and said, "Perhaps."
"Senior brother, do you really not know? For example... during this time, have there been any other little demons around him?"
Chu Qingxuan looked indignant. Lin Zhen swore that if he said it was true, this junior sister would immediately pounce on him and beat him up.
He asked in confusion, "Little fairy???"
Chu Qingxuan coughed lightly, "Is there anyone else around?"
