A dark glint flashed in Gong Mingyue's deep eyes. "Why?"
“Ah Yue, you’ve forgotten everything about me now, and I don’t blame you. But I have a lot of important things to do and things to investigate. I can’t stay here forever. Do you understand what I mean?”
Ji Jiuying explained that she knew if she didn't make things clear to him now, he probably wouldn't let her leave the Nine Heavens Divine Palace.
Gong Mingyue simply stared at her without saying a word.
a long time.
He reached out and took the hem of her dress, then gently pulled her into his arms.
"I have forgotten, but I know everything about you, I know everything."
Ji Jiuying wasn't surprised to hear this. He had forgotten her, but Yingyue and the others hadn't. Finding out everything about her would be a piece of cake for them.
"I've already sent people to investigate your mother's matter and the Soul-Locking Needle, so could you...?"
"Can't!"
Before Gong Mingyue could finish speaking, Ji Jiuying interrupted him. Ji Jiuying gently pushed him away, faced her, and said seriously, "A-Yue, I don't want to be a caged canary."
How could he not understand what she meant? Looking at the serious look in her eyes, his heart softened. "Okay."
Seeing that he agreed, Ji Jiuying breathed a sigh of relief. Then, thinking of something, she asked, "A-Yue, is there any way to help you absorb the main soul Moon Candle faster?"
Gong Mingyue's dark eyes darkened slightly as he gently stroked her hair with his large hand. "Jiu'er doesn't need to worry about this. Jiu'er just needs to do her own thing."
"No, if you don't integrate for even a day, I'll have to..." Before she could finish speaking, she met those deep eyes, eyes as cold as a deep pool that seemed to suck people in.
What do you need every night?
Of course, it's to guard against you, you unpredictable lecher. Of course, this is just what Ji Jiuying thinks, and she doesn't dare to say it to her face.
"It's nothing..." Ji Jiuying chuckled twice, her voice trembling.
"Jiu'er, I'm a little reluctant to leave you, what should I do? I'll have insomnia tonight..."
Gong Mingyue's voice softened, and with his handsome face, anyone else would probably have been completely captivated and lost all sense of direction. But when Ji Jiuying thought about what he had done last night, she felt a chill run down her spine.
"Jiu'er, shall I follow you?"
"not good!"
Ji Jiuying refused without even thinking. What a joke! If it weren't for the fact that he would change his personality at night, she wouldn't have refused so directly.
After all, having someone to guide you in this unfamiliar place is really helpful.
Before Gong Mingyue could say anything more, a faint sound came from outside the door. He frowned, and a flash of murderous intent crossed his eyes.
"master."
Zi Yu couldn't help but shiver. Even standing outside the door, she could feel the chilling aura emanating from the depths of her soul emanating from inside.
"Ah Yue, what are you doing? Are you trying to freeze me to death?"
Even Ji Jiuying could feel the temperature around her dropping, all because of the man beside her.
Gong Mingyue then came to his senses and concealed his aura. He took Ji Jiuying's hand, and the palace doors opened automatically.
Seeing the two holding hands, Zi Yu immediately understood the source of the chill she had just felt. She must have disturbed her master and mistress; this matter couldn't be delayed...
"What's up?"
"Master, it's Fairy Xin Yao. She went to Sifang City last night, and it seems she was plotting something with someone. That person is too powerful, so I dare not get too close."
"Zi Yu, don't you understand the principle of casting a long line to catch a big fish? From now on, there's no need to report such invalid reports to me."
"Yes, Your subordinate takes his leave!"
After Zi Yu left, Ji Jiuying looked at Gong Mingyue: "A Yue, I didn't expect Xin Yao to still be alive."
Sensing the fleeting killing intent emanating from her, a hint of surprise flashed in Gong Mingyue's eyes. "Jiu'er wanted to kill her."
"How could I possibly let someone who wants to steal my man and kill me go? Ah Yue, I'll spare her life!"
As Ji Jiuying spoke, her eyes revealed undisguised murderous intent.
Gong Mingyue, on the other hand, almost lost himself when he heard her say that he was her man!
But when he heard the next sentence, his face instantly turned gloomy. During this period, he had been suffering from the backlash of the Golden Lotus Seed almost every day, and he couldn't pay attention to so much. So he could only instruct Ziyu to keep an eye on her. The day she came to beg him, he released her from her confinement because he wanted to see if she would give herself away.
I never expected that someone would dare to try to kill Jiu'er. It seems I need to deal with her as soon as possible.
"Ah Yue, what's wrong?"
"fine."
Just then, Shadow Moon returned.
"Master, mistress." Yingyue knelt respectfully on the ground.
Ji Jiuying's eyes lit up at this, and she quickly stepped forward: "Yingyue, how is it? Have you seen Qingling?"
Yingyue nodded: "Yes, mistress."
"How is she? Is she alright?"
"Qingling is doing well. Her strength has increased a lot, and she is much more composed in her actions. As for the matter you entrusted to me, I have already told her about it."
"As for the Floating Life Mirror, it's doing quite well in the Azure Sea," Yingyue said truthfully.
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuying's lips curled up slightly. It was something to be happy about that Qingling had made such a change; at least this way, she could rest assured and feel at ease.
"Has anything happened since I left the Cangming Continent?"
What would the hostess like to hear about?
Ji Jiuying raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. In just one day and one night, could he have found out everything about the entire Cangming Continent?
Noticing her expression, Gong Mingyue said, "Yingyue is the fastest among my personal guards when it comes to investigating matters."
"Then let me tell you about my friends!"
Upon hearing this, Yingyue recounted everything he had investigated, while Ji Jiuying listened attentively as she ate the grapes that Gong Mingyue had peeled for her.
But after hearing about Wen Chuyu, she stopped eating grapes.
"Has Chu Yu not returned from the ancient battlefield yet?"
"yes."
A look of worry flashed in Ji Jiuying's eyes, and Gong Mingyue stopped peeling grapes. His lowered eyes were hidden by his eyelashes, making it impossible to see the expression in his eyes.
"Is there anything unusual about the Wen family?"
Yingyue shook her head. "There's nothing unusual. Besides, Wen Longxiu rarely goes to Lingyin Temple anymore. When she does go, it's only to see Jin Chenzi."
A hint of doubt flashed in Ji Jiuying's eyes. This was too abnormal. If Chu Yu really hadn't come out, the Wen family wouldn't have reacted like this. At this moment, Ji Jiuying remembered what Jin Chenzi had said.
Good fortune and misfortune are intertwined; joy may mingle with misfortune...
Could it be that Chu Yu has already come out? It's just that people outside don't know it yet, that's the only way Ji Jiuying could comfort herself.
