Song Tingwan casually asked, "Was everyone drunk last night?"
Song Siyao glanced at her older sister without showing any emotion, and responded with a muffled "hmm".
The old father looked at everyone as if nothing had happened, yet they were all eating and drinking in perfect harmony, and smiled gently: "Yesterday you got drunk and fell asleep. Your sister carried you back to your room. When I wanted to take a walk, these guys followed behind me. The clansmen all said I was being followed by a bunch of little tails."
No one objected.
Upon hearing this, Song Tingwan breathed a sigh of relief.
From what her father said, she got drunk and fell asleep immediately.
That's good.
Everyone at the dinner table exchanged furtive glances, none of them revealing what she had said while drunk.
"Master, when will you and Sister Ayao set off? Let's go with you." Baili Xijiang also held back his words and asked other questions instead.
Song Tingwan paused in her porridge-drinking motion, looking at A Yao beside her as if asking a question.
Song Siyao raised her eyes indifferently, "Today?"
Baili Xijiang let out a wail, "That's way too early."
Are we going to be separated from everyone so soon?
The people at the table also stopped what they were doing.
Song Siyao smiled slightly in front of everyone, "It's fake."
Song Tingwan smiled brightly from the side, "You've fooled everyone at the table."
Song Chaoxuan couldn't help but chuckle: "Our Ayao has learned to tease people too."
Song Siyao shrugged and continued serving porridge to her older sister.
"Since you can't decide, how about I calculate an auspicious day for you?"
Qin Xi's eyes crinkled with delight. "Then thank you very much, Uncle."
Song Chaoxuan and Shan cut it off.
Everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks and respect the Daoist practice of looking into the sky.
moment
Song Chaoxuan opened his eyes. "Two days later."
A bloody aura pervades the ominous hexagram, making it rare to find one where fortune and misfortune are intertwined.
He told them without changing his expression that it would be two days later.
How can a hexagram that offers the only hope amidst a sea of blood not be considered auspicious?
Song Tingwan had no suspicions and said softly, "Then we'll set off in two days."
Everyone at the table had unwavering faith in Song Chaoxuan.
Only Chen Zhuochuan's gentle smile held a hint of inquiry.
Auspicious day?
Countless people fail to ascend, but the chosen one ascends smoothly?
If that's the case, then what about all the dangers A Yao encountered before?
My uncle said last night that the two of them will inevitably face countless dangers.
They couldn't protect each other personally; they had to bear it all themselves.
Song Tingwan's gaze inadvertently met his eyes.
Chen Zhuochuan's eyes were filled with worry and reluctance.
There were a bunch of people at the table, so it wasn't appropriate to say anything.
Song Tingwan looked at him with tender, watery eyes, and Chen Zhuochuan's heart softened. They gazed at each other affectionately.
"Ahem, let's eat."
Song Chaoxuan tapped the table, interrupting the two who were being affectionate.
Under his gaze, the little ones at the table obediently lowered their heads and ate their food.
The afternoon sun was blinding.
After lunch, Song Chaoxuan went to find the old clan chief, and the group of people habitually sat down on the viewing platform.
"I'll sit with you for a while. I'll go into seclusion to refine weapons later. No matter how well I refine them, be sure to call me before we set off," Qin Xi said first.
She looked intently at Wan'er and her sister with her big eyes.
She had a premonition that this trip would not be peaceful, and they were unable to stay by their side.
They could only empty their own treasures and try to turn the previous pseudo-artifact into a real artifact.
"Ah, then I'll go into seclusion to refine pills too. Remember to call me." Baili Xijiang said, seemingly unwilling to admit defeat, upon hearing Qin Yuanyuan's words.
Although he wasn't as skilled at alchemy as his master, he could still refine quite a few pills, which he kept on hand just in case they came in handy.
The two were excited and planned to take out all their stock.
Wanqiji probably had his own ideas, "I'll go back to the Demon Realm and come back before I set off."
Their gazes finally settled on Shen Zhuochuan.
He met Song Tingwan's gaze with intense intensity. "I'm not going anywhere."
Baili Xijiang secretly glared at his uncle.
mean.
While they were all away from their master, he monopolized him.
"Then let's not waste any more time. Go do what you need to do."
Song Tingwan looked at them one by one, her gaze lingering on Shen Zhuochuan before finally looking away.
How could she not know what Shen Zhuochuan could perceive?
Father and Mother made everything sound far too simple.
It's so simple that it seems like you can easily ascend to heaven when the time is right.
But recently, the Mandate of Heaven has stopped making any moves.
Danger lurks in the shadows.
She wouldn't be foolish enough to actually think this trip was safe.
She could also sense her friends' reluctance and worry.
And Ah Yao often looked on in a daze.
But no one mentioned it, and she pretended not to know and went along with their wishes.
parting.
It's not like we're facing life and death.
It's no big deal.
As everyone left the observation deck one by one.
As she, her sister, and Shen Zhuochuan watched them leave from the railing, Song Tingwan still couldn't help feeling a sense of loss.
I thought I could still enjoy wine, tea, cards, and casual conversation for the next couple of days.
"They are worried about you."
Seeing the three reluctant to turn back, Shen Zhuochuan chuckled softly and spoke gently.
Upon hearing this, Song Tingwan turned to look at him and smiled, "And what about you?"
Aren't you worried about me?
"I'm worried, but I can't stop it or interfere." His eyes deepened, filled with tenderness and restraint.
Song Tingwan suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.
The mini dragon in her mind's eye affectionately entwined itself around her consciousness, even straining its tail to hold on.
She unconsciously took his hand, smiled, and said, "Don't worry."
