......
"Why hasn't Master come out yet?" Yan Ying sighed, holding her cheek.
It's been half a day and there's no movement from the master.
"Don't worry." Bai Huanzhi said softly.
Yan Ying stood up from the hall and planned to take a walk outside. As soon as she walked out of the hall, Yan Ying felt something was wrong.
There was not a single disciple around, and it was very quiet.
There were still many disciples here just now.
Yan Ying stood at the door of the hall, and several killers in black appeared out of nowhere at the corner of the door.
Yan Ying sensed the danger and immediately turned around alertly, but there was no one behind her.
"Could it be...Is it that I'm overthinking?"
Yan Ying turned around, and the bodies of the men in black at the corner of the palace gate had all disappeared. Cen Ji and Qi Jiang stood in the corner watching Yan Ying leave.
"Junior sister, don't go too far!" Wu Lin shouted in the hall.
"Okay!" Yan Ying responded.
There were still assassins in the Xuan Ting Immortal Sect. Cen Ji was afraid that he would not be able to protect Yan Ying, so he dodged behind Yan Ying.
Yan Ying felt someone standing behind her. Before she turned around to look, her vision went dark, she lost consciousness and fell into the arms of the person behind her.
"Deal with all the killers." Cen Ji caught Yan Ying and whispered to Qi Jiang behind him.
"yes."
Cen Ji picked up Yan Ying and left in stealth.
Cen Ji brought Yan Ying back to Guiyun Sect and carried her into her room.
Yan Ying's eyes were closed, her breathing was steady, and she lay in Cen Ji's arms like a sleeping kitten.
"Little ghost..." Cen Ji sat on Yan Ying's small bed, looking at the person in his arms with gentle eyes.
"Tell me... what should I do now? I thought that as long as I secured the position of Lord of the Demon Realm, I could bring you back to the Demon Realm and keep you by my side..."
"But now, I can no longer hold this position. The Demon Realm is not safe, and I cannot let you be in danger."
Cen Ji's heart suddenly ached, and the Delusion-Devouring Curse took effect. A wave of pain that made his whole body tremble swept over him again. He turned his head and swallowed the fishy sweetness in his throat.
The scars on his body left by the Fire Thunder Whip were still aching slightly, and with the Delusion Devouring Curse sweeping through his body, he was weaker than ever before, with a pale face and bloodless lips.
"What should I do..."
Cen Ji frowned and endured the pain, hugging Yan Ying tightly with his arms, wanting to merge her into his body.
The Ghost Blade has many minions, so he must stay away from her, farther and farther.
He couldn't stay in Guiyun Sect. If he stayed there for one day, the little ghost would be in more danger.
He hadn't felt this kind of uncertainty about life and death for a long time. He had thought everything was too simple.
He will not be controlled by Ghost Blade. Only when he returns to the Demon Realm will Ghost Blade dare not act recklessly.
But if that happened, he wouldn't be able to stay with her, and he didn't know how long it would take before they could see each other again.
Ghost Blade's Delusion-Devouring Curse cannot restrain him, but the little ghost can, and he will not let her fall into danger.
Cen Ji's lips gently fell on Yan Ying's forehead and stayed there for a long time.
"I'll take care of everything..."
Cen Ji's voice was trembling. He didn't know if he could defeat Ghost Blade, but he would try his best to win.
For her, and for himself.
"Little boy, I like you, but I can't grow up with you."
"I know you like me too, so... wait for me, wait for me a little longer."
