After the ghost messengers disappeared from sight, Jiuxi came back to her senses and found that Jie Ran had actually been circling around Gong Ci. He then reached out and touched Gong Ci's chest, wondering, "I thought the girl was a woman disguised as a man!"
This touch made Jie Ran a little frightened because the man had no heartbeat.
It’s actually, really, really a zombie.
Gong Ci slowly and methodically tidied up the clothes that were torn by Jie Ran, then glanced at Jie Ran with his dull eyes, without any expression on his face. He just turned his gaze to Jiu Xi and just looked at Jiu Xi quietly.
This look made Jiuxi feel a little embarrassed. He cleared his throat and asked, "Jie Ran, have you found out about the spies in the fairy world?"
Jie Ran also knew it was time to get down to business, so he quickly pulled Jiu Xi to his side and whispered, "Those five said they'd have a gathering tonight to discuss who would report to the Immortal Lord tomorrow."
Immortal Lord...which Immortal Lord is it?
Jie Ran continued, "It seems like he's talking about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what's the Cangshan Mountain?"
It's Cang Ling, Jiuxi thought. That's right, that day! She embarrassed Cang Ling so much, so naturally he took the job and wished he could stab her to death.
Jie Ran rubbed his head and said dazedly, "I can't remember the name, but I remember the place very clearly. It's the Yunlai Inn in Fengdu City. It's tonight at midnight."
As soon as Jie Ran finished speaking, Jiuxi and Gong Ci smiled at each other. Jiuxi said, "Gong Ci, I can go through this muddy water alone. You go back to Li Zang first."
Gong Ci wanted to say something but stopped himself. Seeing the unquestionable look in Jiuxi's eyes, he could only calm down secretly. He felt guilty for abandoning her that day, but Jiuxi did not blame him. She even worked hard for the zombie world. Although the zombie world had moved to the Dead City, he was still needed to go back and stabilize the people of the zombie tribe. But what Gong Ci had never expected was that just as he was about to leave, Jie Ran clung to Gong Ci's back like an octopus, blinking his big watery eyes and said pitifully, "Master, take me with you! I know a lot of things!"
His words were full of pride, but Gong Ci still released spiritual power from his body, trying to shock Jie Ran away. However, after the spiritual power was released, it had no effect. Jie Ran clung even tighter, even clinging to Gong Ci's waist with his legs, and couldn't help but sigh that Gong Ci's figure was simply too good.
It is actually not affected by any spiritual power. It is really... a rare sight in a thousand years.
Jiuxi couldn't bear to watch it any longer. She had never seen Gong Ci's beautiful face turn green and red, and then red and green again. She said jokingly, "Gong Ci, take Jie Ran back with you. Jie Ran is very useful!"
Jie Ran also nodded repeatedly, and Gong Ci now forcefully pried off Jie Ran's fingers one by one, and kicked Jie Ran away. His eyes were full of disgust, and he said, "You're really clingy."
Unexpectedly, before Gong Ci could rest for long, Jie Ran tugged at Gong Ci's sleeve again and said, "If you don't take me with you, I won't let you go either."
He had never seen such a shameless woman, no, she was a ghost, a clingy ghost. Gong Ci's eyes flashed blood red, filled with a shrill light, and even his voice was a bit cold, "Let go!"
Jie Ran didn't expect Gong Ci to be so mean to her. Even a female ghost with no moral integrity would have self-respect. Being despised by Gong Ci like this, Jie Ran couldn't help but hold her mouth shut. She looked so pitiful that she just wanted someone to hold her in their hands and cherish her. In the end, Gong Ci still agreed to take Jie Ran away.
Jie Ran muttered, "If I had known that pretending to be pitiful would be so effective, I would have done it sooner."
