Jingyue had a feeling she knew what Su Qi was up to.
So, she was a little surprised.
Then, Su Qi nodded. "Yeah, that’s exactly what I’m planning to do."
Jingyue said, "You need to think this through. The consequences are unknown. If things get out of hand, it’ll be too late for tears."
"I know, but you also said that if I don’t tell him, there’s only one certain outco. Besides, I already brought it up before I left ho. This is just taking the next step to confirm it," Su Qi said.
Jingyue thought for a mont. She had found so things strange to begin with, and Jiang Zuo’s attitude had been unexpected.
’Thinking about it now, maybe revealing it at this ti will have the least impact.’
’He seems very calm. That kind of calm either ans he’s seen through everything, or it’s the prelude to a storm.’
Then, she looked at Su Qi and said, "Alright then, Junior Sister. But letting an ordinary person in isn’t easy. You’ll need Master’s approval. You have to convince her."
Su Qi knew this was an issue.
She looked earnestly at her master and asked, "Master, what about you? Do you agree or not?"
Yue Xi: "..."
She still couldn’t speak.
Jingyue then spoke up. "Junior Sister, Master is severely injured and can’t talk right now. You need to move her with your sincerity."
"Take out the token, have Master press her handprint on it, and if she does, that ans she agrees. Then you can just buy a plane ticket and he’ll be able to get in smoothly."
Su Qi then brought over the required token and placed it in front of her master. The two of them then took their master’s hand and pressed a handprint onto the token.
Su Qi said happily, "Master really does dote on after all. She agreed just like that."
Yue Xi: "..."
’Let’s see, how many more days until I recover?’
’About three days, I suppose. Heh, go on, keep prancing around, you girls.’
’You will soon learn the aning of atonent.’
’I will make you understand the terror of being cruelly dominated.’

When Jiang Zuo woke up, it was already close to evening.
There was no need to go out at this point. He still had so dicine, but it was unlikely he’d be able to advance to level 1.5. He needed to buy more.
Fortunately, he now had a Sixth-Grade Spirit Stone. After spending it all, he might be able to reach level 1.6. Even if he couldn’t, he should be just a hair’s breadth away.
Further upgrades would beco increasingly difficult to achieve with just these dicines.
He had to focus on developing his Five Elents Attribute.
With the Bright Moon Bead and the Sun Fla Stone, his hopes of attaining the Innate Three Qi were high. Even if he failed, reaching Tier Two would be no problem at all.
However, the items he needed for his Five Elents Attribute were not easy to buy. Even if he found them, he definitely couldn’t afford them.
After getting up and checking on Sweet Potato, Jiang Zuo tossed it two apples and then decided to make himself sothing to eat.
Co to think of it, he hadn’t really eaten anything particularly good.
He only ate a little better when Su Qi was ho.
’Thinking about it, it was pretty nice having Su Qi around. It just made going out inconvenient.’
Just as he thought this, his phone rang. He glanced at it and saw that it was, surprisingly, Su Qi.
Jiang Zuo was a bit surprised. In theory, wasn’t Su Qi unable to make calls?
Upon answering the phone, Jiang Zuo was t with Su Qi’s accusatory question: "If I hadn’t called you, were you just never going to call ?"
"..." Jiang Zuo said, "I seem to recall that your phone is turned off the entire ti you’re ho for the rites."
Su Qi paused. That did seem to be the case. Unconvinced, she retorted, "You could have tried! What if it went through?"
Jiang Zuo just said, "Oh," and fell silent. No matter how this conversation continued, it would end up being his fault.
’It was better to just say nothing at all.’
Then Su Qi added, "Guess what my sister and I are doing right now?"
Jiang Zuo yawned and asked casually, "What are you doing?"
"Getting the paperwork done for you. Plane ticket for the day after tomorrow. You’re to fly over here on your own. Then I’ll let you see a different world."
"Huh?"
Jiang Zuo froze, asking in astonishnt, "What did you say? What plane ticket?"
Su Qi was speechless. "You’re actually focused on the plane ticket."
’How could he not care about the plane ticket?’
It was bought for him, which ant he had to travel. But he had already arranged his own schedule.
This sudden trip completely disrupted his plans.
Jiang Zuo imdiately said, "Explain it more clearly. I don’t really understand."
Su Qi said, "It’s simple. Weren’t you arguing with a while ago, asking what exactly I was doing? Now, all you have to do is co here, and you’ll naturally find out. Then you’ll have to apologize to in sha."
Jiang Zuo imdiately replied, "But didn’t I stop arguing about it?"
"You still have to know. Otherwise, what if one day you decide I’ve been unfaithful? I refuse to be suspected by you. Anyway, the ticket’s been bought. You should receive it in a bit."
"When you arrive, just follow the directions I send you, and you’ll get to where I am."
"I won’t be able to use my phone after this. The flight is the day after tomorrow. The day after that, which is the third day, I want to see you here."
"Otherwise, you’re done for."
"Bye-bye, rember to miss ."
The call ended, but Jiang Zuo couldn’t stop frowning.
’Soone actually dared to arrange his schedule, and without even giving him a choice.’
’This person was bold. Incredibly, audaciously bold.’
In the end, Jiang Zuo sighed. ’Might as well go out and get sothing to eat.’
Jiang Zuo naturally knew what Su Qi was thinking. She wanted to lay her cards on the table, and she wanted to do it by showing him the actual place.
’The Holy Land... As an ordinary person, it’s a place one might never co into contact with in a lifeti.’
But Jiang Zuo didn’t want to go right now. The Holy Land was full of gossips, and if he went, he might be exposed.
If all that was exposed was the fact that he could use Cultivation, that would be one thing. But this could directly expose the fact that he’d once secretly acted against her.
Jiang Zuo shook his head. The days to co were probably going to be rather complicated.
The most unfortunate part was that his plan to seize a certain item had also gone up in smoke.
Now, Jiang Zuo deeply understood the aning of "plans can’t keep up with change." Su Qi was his biggest variable right now.

That day, Xin Linglong welcod a handso young man who looked to be about two or three years older than her.
She picked him up right after he got off the plane.
The mont she saw him, Xin Linglong excitedly ran over, hugged him, and complained pitifully, "Big Brother, you’re finally here! Training out in the world is so hard."
Xin Chuihuo looked at Xin Linglong and frowned. "Little Sister, let go first. People will get the wrong idea."
Xin Linglong looked at Xin Chuihuo in surprise. "What wrong idea? We’re brother and sister."
Xin Chuihuo shook his head. "No, you were probably adopted. Of course, that’s not important. What’s important is that you acting like this will lower my, your big brother’s, charm."
"Other pretty ladies might think I’m not single."
Xin Linglong let go of her brother, dissatisfied. ’He doesn’t even dote on his little sister. No wonder he’s a single loser.’
Back at Xin Linglong’s apartnt, Xin Chuihuo saw the heavily injured Qiqi, and he couldn’t help but frown.
Xin Linglong had co out to train with almost no money. Although she was loaded with treasures, she was short on cash.
Right now, Xin Linglong was only living in an ordinary apartnt, but Xin Chuihuo still felt she was quite capable for managing even that.
Then Xin Chuihuo said, "Little Sister, you take good care of Qiqi for a mont. I need to ask Yaya sothing."
With that, the Water Qilin was summoned.
