The moment Xiao Si closed the window, Yan Ying seemed to see a person standing on the street through the gap in the wooden window.
She lowered her eyes and put away the smile in her eyes.
She must have seen it wrong again. Why was Cen Ji here?
During this month, she spoke countless words to Cen Ji through the voice stone, but it seemed as if Cen Ji could not receive any of her words.
Maybe he lost the sound stone...
But how could he, a living person, suddenly disappear without a trace?
Last time he disappeared for a month, so this time she waited patiently for a month, but Cen Ji did not come back.
He didn't know when he would come back, or maybe he wouldn't come back...
She saw Cen Ji for the last time, and he didn't even say goodbye before he disappeared.
"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Si felt something was wrong when he saw Yan Ying's wooden eyes, so he asked.
"Nothing." Yan Ying shook her head.
Xiao Si saw the loneliness in Yan Ying's eyes. He was a little puzzled but did not ask. He just smiled faintly.
"By the way, I asked some shops nearby the day before yesterday, and the prices are not expensive. When Xingyue Pavilion becomes more famous, I think we can add more space." Xiao Si said softly.
"Okay, adding a few more people will help expand the business. And I think you're right, we can also recruit some talisman masters and weapon masters."
"It would be easier to use our own people, which would save us some trouble." Yan Ying said to Xiao Si.
Xiao Si nodded in agreement.
"Do you have enough spirit stones? Do you need me..."
"That's enough." Xiao Si responded.
Yan Ying patted Xiao Si's shoulder and smiled. "I've been waiting for you to succeed! I have a really good eye. I didn't expect you to have such a good business sense."
Xiao Si looked at Yan Ying's hand on his shoulder and smiled with a slight blush on his cheeks.
It seemed that she was very satisfied with what he had done.
"Do you want to eat something? I'll ask someone to buy it for you." Xiao Si asked.
"Senior brother, do you want to eat something?" Yan Ying asked He Qing.
He Qing shook his head indifferently.
"No need to bother, we'll just sit for a while and then go back." Yan Ying looked at Xiao Si and said.
Xiao Si nodded but didn't say anything to keep him.
He knew he couldn't keep her. How could someone like her stop for him? He could only walk faster, perhaps to accompany her for a while.
There was a hint of loneliness in Xiao Si's eyes, but it disappeared in a flash.
......
Xuanting Immortal Gate.
"Failed? What a bunch of trash!" Wu Xun angrily kicked down the person who was reporting in front of him.
"She...the people helping her are from the Demon Realm. We really can't defeat them." The veiled man said as he sat on the ground.
"The Demon Realm... The Demon Realm again." Wu Xun's eyes turned cold.
I didn't expect that Yan Ying was so powerful. Not only did Sect Master Ning protect her perfectly, but even people from the Demon Realm helped her.
"The people from the sect are related to the Demon Realm. She is really a...disaster." Wu Xun said coldly.
Since she is lucky, let her see how capable Yan Ying is.
She is just a young girl, and there will always be times when she is left alone.
......
Guiyun Sect.
Yan Ying and He Qing walked side by side on the gravel road of Yuankun Peak.
"Thank you, Third Brother, for accompanying me down the mountain today." Yan Ying said with a smile.
He Qing nodded expressionlessly.
He didn't do anything, but she was so happy just by accompanying her down the mountain.
"Brother, are you going back to your room to practice?"
Yan Ying saw He Qing walking towards the disciples' residence and asked.
"Yeah." He Qing nodded and took a step forward, but then he seemed to remember something and turned to Yan Ying and said, "I don't have anything to do on weekdays. If you want to go down the mountain again, come find me."
"Okay!" Yan Ying replied with a smile. "Goodbye, Senior Brother!"
After He Qing left, Yan Ying walked alone on the road, thinking of sitting in the yard for a while.
"Auntie, you're back!" Wu Bai ran towards Yan Ying.
When he arrived at Yuankun Peak and heard that his aunt had gone down the mountain today, he waited for her there.
"Wubai, why are you here?" Yan Ying looked at Wubai curiously.
"I've been busy practicing these days. I haven't seen you for a long time, so I came to see you." Wu Bai scratched his head and smiled. "Don't you miss me, Auntie?"
Ever since he entered the inner gate, he has been busy at Ce Xuan Peak.
"It's been a while since we last met." Yan Ying smiled and nodded, then walked to the stone table under a tree by the roadside and sat down.
Yan Ying looked up at the leaves on the tree. The leaves had turned yellow. Two yellow leaves fell on the table, and there was a rustling sound when the wind blew.
When she came here, the leaves were still green.
"Aunt, Senior Sister Ye hasn't been seen for a long time. What has she been busy with recently?" Wu Bai asked as he sat next to Yan Ying.
"I don't know either. My sister never tells me about this." Yan Ying shook her head.
Although the mission is now completed and Yan Ying is free, she feels empty inside.
"The quiet house over at Mengyuan Peak has been cleared out." Wu Bai sighed.
It's really strange. Cen Ji clearly came back, but it hasn't been long since then, so how come he disappeared again?
"Auntie, aren't you going to find someone to look for him this time?"
Wu Bai remembered that the last time Cen Ji left the sect, her aunt was extremely anxious and had people search for him at the foot of the mountain every day. But this time, she didn't make any move. After Cen Ji left, she didn't even go to Mengyuan Peak.
"What's the point of looking for him? Even if he comes back, he will leave again." Yan Ying said in a low voice.
