She even wanted to follow in his footsteps.
But, to say he was her beloved, it hadn’t reached that stage.
She wasn’t a love-struck fool!
"Easily said, easily said!" Li Ji’an leaned lazily on the Spirit Wood bed.
"However, since you’re claid to be my maid on this journey, you should do so things a maid should do, no? Otherwise, if there’s another chance to be thrown off, I really won’t have any options."
Yao Rui glanced at Li Ji’an’s gently moving foot, her face slightly darkening.
"Greetings to Master ng and Supervisor Liu!" At this mont, a greeting from the doorkeeper of the Si Shui Comrce Association ca from outside the cabin.
"Too kind, too kind. May I ask if the esteed female Pill Master is here?" Master ng’s deanor was benevolent and affectionate, and his voice was exceptionally warm.
...
Yao Rui’s eyes suddenly relaxed, and she walked to the side of Li Ji’an’s reclining bed, bent her knees, and squatted, her hands pressing on Li Ji’an’s suspended leg.
"Hiss!" Her sudden forceful tugging and twisting almost made Li Ji’an cry out in pain.
"Five Blessings Comrce Association, ng Xiangnian greets the Fellow Daoist." At this mont, the cabin door just happened to open.
Master ng looked warmly at Guo Wanzhi.
Guo Wanzhi appeared sowhat nervous.
As the person involved, she naturally knew that the other party’s visit was because of the Identity Jade Token engraved with the Nine Tripods Comrce Association.
And everyone thought that Jade Token was hers.
Clearly, this was in consideration of the Nine Tripods Comrce Association’s face.
Moreover, the Master ng in front of her had Spiritual Cultivation higher than hers, naturally able to see through her disguise at a glance.
She was uncertain if any troubles would arise if the other party saw through her identity.
Additionally, she was also worried that if the Nine Tripods Comrce Association learned of her actions, it might cause unnecessary trouble.
"The junior greets Master ng." Guo Wanzhi stood up and returned the gesture.
"Haha, don’t ntion it, don’t ntion it. May I ask your na, Fellow Daoist? Now that you’re on the Spiritual Ship, there’s no need to worry too much; you may reveal your true appearance." Master ng, seeing Guo Wanzhi’s posture, assud she was still worrying about the war in this region, and spoke to comfort her.
"As you command!" Guo Wanzhi nodded, and then her Disguise Technique dissipated, revealing her true appearance and figure.
"This junior’s surna is Guo."
Master ng nodded slightly at this: "Alchemist Guo, pleased to et you!"
His gaze was calm and his deanor natural, without the wretched and sinister repulsion of Li Ji’an.
"Master ng gives too much credit!" Guo Wanzhi gracefully returned the gesture.
"Hmm?" Master ng turned his head to look at Li Ji’an and Yao Rui. Li Ji’an’s appearance was as expected, but Yao Rui had not yet removed her Disguise Technique.
This was considered impolite in front of a True Man.
However, Master ng’s gaze quickly passed, and he did not mind it.
He ca because of Guo Wanzhi’s Nine Tripods Comrce Association Jade Token, and didn’t even bother to look at the Black Gold Inheritance Token of the Si Shui Comrce Association.
"Alchemist Guo, this place is cramped and oppressive, it must be sowhat inconvenient for you. I sincerely invite Alchemist Guo to the lounge on the first floor, and hope Alchemist Guo will do the honor."
"The first-floor lounge!" Guo Wanzhi felt a slight glee.
To be honest, when she first boarded the Spiritual Ship, this environnt indeed made her a bit uncomfortable, since she had lived in luxurious mansions since childhood and later resided in Tier Three Spirit Vein Caves in Pill Cauldron Peak after joining Biyun Sect. She had never stayed in such conditions.
However, she could endure while on the run.
But now, with this opportunity, she couldn’t help but be tempted.
But, just a mont of temptation later, she realized her situation, the Identity Jade Token belonged to that wretched Fellow Daoist, she was rely an imposter.
If anyone should move to a more comfortable and better Spiritual Qi environnt, it should be Fellow Daoist Huang’s decision.
She didn’t dare gamble that Master ng wouldn’t throw her off the Spiritual Ship upon learning the Jade Token wasn’t hers.
Nor could she predict what uncontrollable consequences might occur if she refused Master ng.
Thus, she pretended to tidy her hair, her eyes pleading as she glanced toward Li Ji’an...
