Chapter 752: Swear
Hearing the worry in Lu Yichen's words, Zhong Nianyao chuckled and said, "Okay, I will definitely be careful. However, you are too nervous about what happened today. I am here in Qingqiu. Qingqiu is my territory. How could anything happen to me? No matter how powerful the person behind this is, he will definitely not be able to plot against me in Qingqiu."
Lu Yichen disagreed. "It's better to be safe than sorry. The person behind this hasn't been found yet, so it's better to be cautious."
"Okay, okay!" Zhong Nianyao couldn't resist Lu Yichen, so she could only nod and agree. "Until the person behind this is found, I will definitely stay with you all the time. Okay?"
Lu Yichen nodded in satisfaction after getting the answer he wanted. Then, as if remembering something, he suddenly said, "Why is Qingqiu's security so tight right now? Did something happen?"
Zhong Nianyao did not hide anything and directly told Lu Yichen about the disappearance of someone in Qingqiu.
After listening to Zhong Nianyao's narration, Lu Yichen couldn't help but frown, and his expression became serious. "Not only did these things happen in Qingqiu, but several fairies also disappeared in the God Realm."
"What?"
After hearing Lu Yichen's words, the laziness on Zhong Nianyao's face disappeared. She sat up and looked at Lu Yichen, asking seriously, "There are also immortals missing in the heavens. What's going on?"
Lu Yichen shook his head and continued, "The disappearance of several immortals did not attract the attention of the divine world. On weekdays, some immortals like to practice cultivation everywhere, so it is really hard to say when they disappeared."
After hearing Lu Yichen's words, Zhong Nianyao's eyes flashed with a dark light, "It seems that things are not simple. There are fairies missing in the God Realm and Qingqiu. It seems strange no matter how you look at it. Also, what are the current situation of those missing fairies?"
After thinking for a moment, she continued, "Do you think this could have been done by the Demon Realm? The Demon Realm has always been making moves, and this time is no exception."
"Not necessarily." Lu Yichen shook his head. "If the Demon Realm really wants to do something, the disappearance of those few immortals won't affect the overall situation at all. Besides, the Demon Realm suffered heavy losses back then, and even today, it definitely can't recover."
"Besides, before I left the God Realm, I had already laid a barrier to prevent any demon from setting foot in the God Realm. Even to this day, the barrier has not been loosened at all."
Zhong Nianyao's expression became serious. "You mean to say that the person who did this was someone from the God Realm?"
Lu Yichen nodded, "There is no other explanation except this."
"Who is this person then?" Zhong Nianyao frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, "and why did he do this?"
"I don't know." Lu Yichen continued, "We don't even know if that person will do it again."
"That's right." Zhong Nianyao nodded. "The news of your return is now known to everyone in heaven and on earth. The person behind the scenes must be afraid and will not act rashly."
"Just because I won't act rashly doesn't mean I won't act at all." A sharp light flashed in Lu Yichen's eyes. "Those missing fairies must be of some use to that person."
After hearing Lu Yichen's words, Zhong Nianyao seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said, "Could it be that they are absorbing their immortal power to use for cultivation?"
"We can't rule out this possibility." Lu Yichen frowned and continued, "We have to consider all possibilities now. Also, we have to find a way to catch the person behind this."
Zhong Nianyao nodded, then found it a little funny. "It's only been a few days since we came back, and we've already encountered so many difficult problems. It seems our luck is really not that good!"
"This happened before we came back," Lu Yichen couldn't help laughing. He reached out, patted Zhong Nianyao on the shoulder, and said, "That person must be caught as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we let him go, it will definitely lead to disaster."
"Now I don't know if that person will stop doing anything because of fear." Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but sigh, "If that's really the case, then it will be difficult to catch him."
"Any fox can't hide its tail." Lu Yichen said, "As soon as he shows his fox tail, we can catch him immediately."
Zhong Nianyao nodded, then suddenly raised her head and looked at Lu Yichen with puffed cheeks, "Were those words you just said to imply something about me? I really think you meant that."
Her true form is a nine-tailed fox, to put it bluntly, she is also a fox. Lu Yichen's words are all about foxes, he must be teasing her!
"Absolutely not." Lu Yichen also realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly explained, "I was just making a metaphor just now, it didn't mean anything else."
Zhong Nianyao's gaze fell on Lu Yichen with a hint of oppression.
Lu Yichen's expression did not change, and he did not dodge at all when facing Zhong Nianyao's gaze.
"Alright!" Zhong Nianyao retracted her gaze and said magnanimously, "It seems that what you said is true. I won't make a fuss about it this time. If there's a next time, don't blame me for being rude."
Lu Yichen immediately raised three fingers and swore, "I promise, there will definitely not be a next time."
Zhong Nianyao nodded with satisfaction before she smiled and said, "Now that the matters in the God Realm have been dealt with, let's stay in Qingqiu for a few more days!"
Seeing Zhong Nianyao's relaxed look, Lu Yichen naturally wouldn't dampen her spirits. So, the two decided to stay in Qingqiu for a few more days to have a good rest!
Seeing the Emperor's arrival, Mengdie originally thought that the little prince would follow the Emperor back to the Nine Heavens. Unexpectedly, it was the Emperor who stayed behind to accompany the little prince.
However, thinking about it carefully, it made sense. In the past, the Emperor had almost risked his life for His Highness, and now it was just a matter of staying with His Highness in Qingqiu for a few days. It wasn't a big deal.
Lu Yichen settled down in Qingqiu just like he did before.
However, on weekdays, he didn't like going out to crowded places, so after settling down in Qingqiu, he spent most of his time in his room.
Zhong Nianyao was not a hardworking person, so naturally she stayed in the room with Lu Yichen.
So, the people of Qingqiu had originally wanted to secretly take a look at Emperor Yichen and the young prince. In the end, of course, they could see nothing.
