at the same time.
In the distant, endless chaos, two figures, one black and one purple, were moving rapidly. Just then, the purple figure paused.
The man in black immediately stopped and was about to ask what was wrong when he saw the woman sneeze twice.
Gong Ying: "?"
He took a cloak from his storage space and draped it over her shoulders, while gently touching her face. He asked in confusion, "Why did you sneeze all of a sudden?"
Mo Qingran: ...She also wanted to know.
At their level of cultivation, let alone ordinary illnesses, even severe injuries and near-death experiences can be cured in a few decades or even a hundred years. So why is she sneezing?
After thinking for a moment, she said with certainty, "It must be that Xiaobao misses me."
Gong Ying: "...Why doesn't he miss me?"
Mo Qingran glanced at him and said, "When the master speaks, the disciple is not allowed to argue."
Gong Ying said "Oh" and obediently shut her mouth.
Mo Qingran was satisfied. She habitually ruffled the man's hair and then sighed, "It's been over three hundred years. I wonder how Xiao Bao is doing. Maybe he's already married and has children. Maybe he even has grandchildren?"
Gong Ying really wanted to say that, given his aloof personality, it would be quite a feat if he could have one or two girls he could talk to.
young married woman?
son?
grandson?
His master is probably overthinking it.
After all, he, as a father, only had a wife and son when he lived to be over a thousand years old.
However, as a devoted husband and apprentice, Gong Ying reluctantly nodded, "Maybe."
Mo Qingran's longing deepened, and with a flick of her purple sleeves, she swept the man away again, leaving only her soft, gentle voice lingering in the distance.
"Let's go. There are only sixteen planes left. We can find them all in two or three years. Let's find the people first."

Fu Jingheng had no idea that his parents were finally close to finding him after searching for him for nearly three hundred years. At this moment, after being subjected to four consecutive rebukes, he was asked to step aside by Bill.
Bill pulled the man aside, glanced around to make sure that while everyone was looking at him and Fu Jingheng with curiosity, no one dared to approach, before lowering his voice and saying, "Boss, someone is trying to find out about Miss Qin."
Fu Jingheng raised an eyebrow slightly: "Is there a problem?"
Putting aside the fact that his daughter is already quite eye-catching, just considering Bill's recent visit, it would be strange if no one inquired about Qin Sheng's whereabouts.
Since Bill had specifically pulled him aside to talk, this inquiry was probably not the same as usual, so he patiently listened on.
really.
Bill glanced around and his gaze fell on a man in the center of the hall. He said, "It's the young master of the Hollis family."
“He…” Because he wasn’t quite sure, Bill hesitated a bit, but since it concerned Qin Sheng, Bill didn’t dare to hide anything, so he told him everything he knew and guessed, “He may have guessed Miss Qin’s identity.”
Which identity?
Fu Jingheng considered Qin Sheng's known identities for a moment, then realized after two seconds: "Tendo?"
Bill nodded and continued, "Back then, when the young master of the Hollis family was kidnapped by Black Prison Zero, it was T God who found Zero's location and helped our criminal investigation center find the exact location, finally arresting him and saving the young master."
"The Hollis family had also placed an order on the hunting network, so they knew that their young master's safe return home was largely thanks to Goddess T. They had always expressed their desire to meet Goddess T and thank her in person."
At this point, Bill couldn't help but sneer: "They provide the money, and T God does the mission. It's just a simple transaction. Why are they making such a fuss about meeting him? To put it bluntly, they just want to recruit T God into their family because they value his abilities. All this talk about thanking him in person is just bullshit!"
He glanced at the man in the center of the crowd again, only to meet the man's gaze as he looked back. He paused for a moment, nodded to the man as casually as possible, and then turned his gaze back.
He continued in a lower voice, "I've looked into some of this young master's information. I suspect that the kidnapping was likely orchestrated by him and then framed by his older brother... the one who just caused trouble for Miss Qin. Since then, his older brother has completely lost the family's trust and regard, and now his status as the heir of the Hollis family is basically secure."
"This kid is a bit cunning. Boss, you'd better be careful if you go up against him."
Fu Jingheng was still looking at his young lady when he saw some young men taking advantage of his absence to go up and toast and invite him to dance. His expression turned sour.
She didn't have time to pay attention to Bill, and casually said, "Do I look like a naive and innocent girl?" before walking away.
Bill: "..."
So all that talk he gave was for nothing?
And... are you sure you're not a naive and innocent girl?
Bill looked at his boss, who was cold and domineering in front of him, but turned into a humble servant in front of Miss Qin, and he was a little speechless.
Beauty can be deceiving; the ancient Chinese were right!
At the same time.
In the center of the hall, Loren withdrew his gaze from Fu Jingheng, turned to his female companion, and asked with an elegant smile, "Have you found out anything?"
Her female companion tightened her grip on Loren's arm slightly, a look of tension flashing across her face as she lowered her voice and said, "The same ones as before."
All that was known was that the man was Chinese, the third young master of the Fu family, the head of the four major families in Tiandu, China. That was all that could be found out.
Loren's smile remained on his face, but there was no joy in his eyes.
He reached out and pinched his female companion's ear, his voice incredibly gentle, yet it sounded like a devil's whisper to her: "Then, what use are you to me?"
Her female companion was so frightened that her legs went weak. If Loren hadn't been supporting her waist with his other hand and leading her in the dance, she felt that she might have already collapsed to her knees.
She lowered her head even further, almost burying it in Loren's chest: "Young Master, spare me! I'll continue investigating immediately and I'll definitely find out the information you want!"
Loren's smile softened slightly: "I hope you won't disappoint me again."
After finishing his last spin, he released his female partner's hand, bowed to her in a gentlemanly manner, and slowly walked off the dance floor.
He casually took a glass of orange juice from a waiter who had just walked past the dance floor, smiled and nodded his thanks before continuing on his way.
About twenty meters ahead of him was Qin Sheng.
Fu Jingheng went to get her some snacks from the other side, leaving only Qin Shi'an and a small dried fish that had just come over.
Yes, Gu Yueming and Qin Zheng also went dancing.
