On weekdays, Ning Qiu Shui no longer gave people the feeling of being close yet distant, and would stay by Jiang Zhige's side whenever she was free.

Play the piano and music, drink wine and write poetry.

Jiang Zhige had no objection to this, or rather, he was happy to stay with Ning Qiu Shui.

Ning Qiu Shui is different from Mo Ziyan and the other two women. Jiang Zhige would not feel too guilty when being with her. He had already decided to respond to Ning Qiu Shui's feelings at the beginning.

Now that Ning Qiu Shui had revealed the memory tampering incident, he was still willing to start over. Naturally, Jiang Zhige no longer had any scruples in his heart.

In recent days, without the presence of Su Qingqiu and the other two girls, the relationship between Ning Qiu Shui and Jiang Zhige has progressed rapidly.

They already knew each other's feelings, and their relationship didn't need to be stated explicitly. The only thing left was to break the last layer of window paper.

On this day, Jiang Zhige was listening to Ning Qiu Shui playing the piano in Bailulin as usual.

He took a sip of the immortal wine, closed his eyes and immersed himself in the music, and exclaimed: "Qiu Shui, your music is really something I never get tired of listening to."

During the time they have been together, Ning Qiu Shui has almost never played the same song repeatedly, and every song is beautiful and deeply rooted in people's hearts.

After a while, the song was finished.

Ning Qiushui suddenly appeared on the opposite side. She stared at Jiang Zhige with her bare hands and said with a smile, "Ah Zhi, do you want to listen to me play the piano every day?"

Jiang Zhige was choked for a moment and turned his head slightly to avoid Ning Qiu Shui's gaze.

Obviously, his heart was as hard as stone, but for some reason, he could never stand Ning Qiu Shui's teasing.

Ning Qiushui appeared beside Jiang Zhige when he saw this, stretched out his hand and pinched his handsome face, saying helplessly: "You are an emperor after all, why are you always so hypocritical?"

Jiang Zhige became more and more embarrassed, and he was not sure what his mentality was.

If it were someone else, even if it was Nangong Rou's three daughters, Jiang Zhige would never act so unconfident.

Perhaps, his feelings towards Ning Qiu Shui were not simply love, but a kind of heart-pounding feeling.

It sounds incredible to make a great emperor feel his heart beat fast, but Ning Qiu Shui did it.

At this moment, Ning Qiushui suddenly withdrew his hand and sighed sadly: "By the way, you won't forget A Yao, right?"

"Of course I haven't forgotten, but unfortunately the ten-year period has passed and she hasn't come to see me."

Jiang Zhige shook his head. He naturally remembered Qi Muyao, but because of Mo Ziyan's incident, he did not show it at the time.

The ten-year period has passed. Although he does not have much affection for Qi Muyao, if she is still full of love now, Jiang Zhige can give her a status to stay by her side.

"Azhi, actually that day, I seemed to notice that Ayao came back."

Ning Qiu Shui was not particularly confident in what she said, because at the time she was also immersed in the sadness of Mo Ziyan's amnesia and was unable to detect Qi Muyao's whereabouts in time.

Thinking about it now, nearly a month has passed since Qi Muyao returned.

Jiang Zhige frowned slightly when he heard this. With Ning Qiu Shui's cultivation level, there was almost no such thing as "as if".

Since he had noticed something, Qi Muyao must have come back.

But she had already returned to Bailulin, so why didn't she come to see Jiang Zhige? Jiang Zhige thought about it for a while and quickly guessed that it was because of Mo Ziyan's matter.

According to the situation at the time, Qi Muyao had no chance to reunite with Jiang Zhige at all, and she probably chose to leave because she felt she could not get involved in Jiang Zhige's world.

Ning Qiushui also vaguely guessed the reason and said, "Ah Zhi, aren't you going to go find her?"

Jiang Zhige was silent for a while, but still shook his head and said, "Qiu Shui, she should have a brand new life, and I will not be her destination."

Just as Qi Muyao chose to leave, it was really hard for Jiang Zhige to be attracted to her. Even if he gave her a status, it was just an empty status.

The two met by chance, and Jiang Zhige just felt sorry for Qi Muyao, so he stayed with her for a while.

Now that Qi Muyao has become a monk and has the courage to turn around and leave, the story between her and Jiang Zhige should finally come to an end.

Rather than having an empty status and staying by Jiang Zhige's side every day without being loved by him, the best ending for Qi Muyao is to go out into the world and find someone who truly loves her.

Hearing Jiang Zhige's answer, Ning Qiu Shui's expression was complicated, and she suddenly felt sad for Qi Muyao.

Qi Muyao really couldn't get involved in Jiang Zhige's world. The reason was not because of Mo Ziyan and the other girls, but because of Jiang Zhige himself.

Jiang Zhige didn't ask for it deliberately, but Qi Muyao fell in love with him without any doubt. However, it was precisely because of his perfection that Qi Muyao could only feel sad.

If he casually accepts the woman's affection, is he still the perfect Jiang Zhige? Only mutual affection is what Jiang Zhige wants. He will not force himself to love someone who loves him but he does not love.

In this way, Qi Muyao, who was unable to impress Jiang Zhige, was destined to watch from afar.

They say that it’s easy for a girl to pursue a boy, but that’s totally false.

Qi Muyao likes Jiang Zhige, but she can't make Jiang Zhige like her too.

In front of a man who is truly worth pursuing, the word "love" alone is really insignificant.

"Azhi, I hope you won't regret it in the future."

Ning Qiu Shui murmured to himself and could only hope that the skills he taught would allow Qi Muyao to live a better life in the future.

At this moment, a voice suddenly broke Bai Lulin's silence.

"God General Zhou Qi, begging to see the Emperor!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Zhige's face suddenly darkened.

He had appeared in public to save Nangong Rou, but was eventually found his residence by Zhou Qi and his group.

Before Jiang Zhige could respond, voices rang out one after another in the distance.

"Pei Yuan, the Quanxiang Divine Sect, requests to see the Emperor!"

"The Qi clan is willing to accept the fate of the world and ask to see the emperor!"

"Puyang Qi of the Qitian Sect requests to see the Emperor!"

Except for Zhou Qi who was several hundred years old, all those who came were ancient giants numbering in the tens of thousands.

Jiang Zhige had a cold face and was about to refuse when Ning Qiushui pulled his clothes and persuaded him, "At least listen to why they want to see you first."

Jiang Zhige was silent for a while, but still nodded and said, "Come out and talk."

Those who had received the promise came from afar, knelt down and kowtowed three times in front of Jiang Zhige.

"Knock to the Emperor!!"

"Knock to the Emperor!!"

Anyone who is from the heavenly realm must kneel and kowtow three times before Jiang Zhige, the emperor who rules the heavens.

Perhaps in the past such a solemn ceremony could have been omitted, but at this moment, no one knew Jiang Zhige’s mood, so to be on the safe side, they kowtowed first.

Jiang Zhige glanced at everyone and said calmly, "What is the purpose of your visit?"

Everyone lowered their heads and dared not speak. Finally, Zhou Qi took the lead in summoning up the courage, raised his head and bowed, saying: "Emperor, more than forty years have passed in the past hundred years. In recent years, there have been gaps in the formation. Many monsters have appeared at the border and invaded the heaven. We are no longer able to resist."
