Cangwu was silent for a moment, but then he heard Jiuxi smile faintly. She lied very well, "Back then, Cangling was just too scared, so he ran away first. But if Cangling hadn't come to tell me the news, do you think you would still be here now?"
His eyes were filled with suspicion, but he expressed his thoughts and said, "Jiuxi, you don't have to lie to me. There are some things I know clearly.
Whether you believe it or not, I will tell you everything about the immortal world without leaving out any details. This time, the marriage that your father has arranged for you is indeed very difficult."
Marriage? Whenever the old fox's face appeared in her mind, Jiuxi felt a chill in her heart, but marriage was really not something she cared about. She then asked, "Apart from the ghost messenger I got rid of yesterday, are there any people from the fairy world in the underworld?"
Cangwu shook his head, his glass-like eyes showing a hint of approval. In fact, he really admired her. She was beautiful and smart. In fact, she was quite clever. He really liked dealing with smart people. He said, "Although I don't know how you guessed the identities of those people, the only thing I am sure of is that there are no more spies from the immortal world in the underworld."
Although Cangwu was so sure, Jiuxi still had a hint of hesitation. However, Mingye's injury could no longer be healed. They would share life and death together, so she must send him to the Forgetful River. Even if she would suffer divine punishment, she would definitely fight back the god who brought down the punishment.
After bidding farewell to Cangwu, she went alone in the fog to the dead city where the zombie tribe settled. The corpse gas was a good disguise, and the zombie tribe's guards were also extremely vigilant, which was why she felt at ease. As for the Eternal Seal, she still had to retrieve it. After all, the Forgotten River was the abode of souls. She was an immortal, and if she went down there, she could not guarantee that she would not be infected by the resentment of a million years. What's more, she never fought a battle without confidence.
Unexpectedly, before Jiuxi went to look for Li Zang, she heard a sound of breaking air. She reached out her hand in dismay and grabbed the golden Eternal Seal. Only then did she look in the direction of the person who came. The person was dressed in snow-white clothes, with a cold face that had not changed for ten thousand years. A deep voice rang out, "Li Zang asked me to give it to you. I was just about to look for you, but I didn't expect that you were already here."
There was a hint of courtesy in the tone.
Jiuxi looked behind Gong Ci and asked doubtfully, "Where's that Jie Ran guy?"
Talking about Jie Ran, Gong Ci's face darkened a little, and he said, "I threw it to Li Zang's place. He was chirping all day long. It was really too noisy."
This was the first time Gong Ci didn't hold back on words. Jiu Xi was slightly moved, but she still tried to persuade him, "Jie Ran has a pitiful life. You should still give in to her."
Gong Ci quickly walked up to Jiuxi and squeezed her fair wrist. A hint of tenderness appeared in his cold eyes, but with a hint of testing. "If I wasn't Gong Ci... but Su Jichen, would you still... still like Mingye?"
This assumption does not exist at all.
She knew that Su Jichen had feelings for her, but since she was a child, she had always thought that she and Jichen could be together. In her heart, she regarded him as her relative. Although she liked relatives, that was definitely not love.
Jiuxi carefully captured every expression on Gong Ci's face. With her free hand, she straightened Gong Ci's messy hair. Looking into his exquisite eyes, she said calmly, "First, you are Gong Ci, a zombie. Second, even if you were Su Jichen, I saved you simply because I consider you a family member. Third, my heart has never changed. I only love Ming Ye."
