"Fourth, fourth, where did you go? Why didn’t you say anything before leaving, and you’re still injured..."
"I’m right here!" Before Yan Xiaohu could finish, Zhou Qing’s voice floated over from the side, tinged with a couple of notes of helplessness and calm.
Rubbing his eyes, Yan Xiaohu realized that Zhou Qing had been sitting cross-legged there all along, never having moved.
He imdiately chuckled awkwardly and quickly walked over.
Speaking of it, ever since he entered the White Jade Taixu Courtyard, his eyes seed out of whack. Even though the fourth was right beside him, he just couldn’t see him.
This reminded him of the past.
Second Senior Sister Luo Lingling had sent him to fetch sothing from a certain place, and he had searched high and low, inside and out, but couldn’t find it.
When Second Senior Sister ca to find him angrily, that item popped up like a ghost in the place he had already searched.
Isn’t that scary?
"Fourth, how are you feeling now?" Yan Xiaohu asked with concern.
Zhou Qing sighed and then shook his head, "Looks like we’ll have to turn to the Second Great Uncle."
Yan Xiaohu, upon hearing this, was filled with remorse.
"Fourth, I’m sorry, it was my fault for getting you into this situation. If it weren’t for my greed for small gains, we would’ve been back to the sect by now and wouldn’t have gotten into this ss!" Yan Xiaohu said regretfully.
Zhou Qing smiled gently, with a hint of magnanimity and comfort, and said softly, "Learnt the hard way, no big deal. Second Great Uncle will definitely have a solution, don’t worry."
Talking about it, it’s just a blood curse. Even if Second Great Uncle can’t help, Talent Skills [Random Sticker] might one day give us a post that targets it.
Just like this ti, the [Antitoxic Sticker] gave them a turnaround in a desperate situation.
What’s more, he doesn’t even know where Celestial Demon Mountain is, and so what if it’s the Peng Race’s bloodline, he had refined three drops of genuine Great Roc Essence Blood.
If the Peng Race cos seeking vengeance, let them co! Why fear them!
"Let’s go, howard bound!" Zhou Qing said, getting up with a grin, comforting Yan Xiaohu, and the two of them set off on their return journey.
...
Taiqing Sect!
When he heard that Zhou Qing and Yan Xiaohu had returned, Mo Xingjian, who had been taking a midday nap, was so excited that he put on his shoes in a rush and hurried out, leaving one behind.
"Master!" Seeing Mo Xingjian stumbling towards them, both of their eyes reddened instantly, kneeling down in excitent.
Mo Xingjian stepped forward a few paces, his hands trembling as he helped them up, gently patting their shoulders, repeatedly saying, "Good, good. As long as you’re back, it’s good."
It was the first ti in all these years that he had let the two of them venture so far away.
Now seeing them safe and sound, the huge stone in his heart finally settled down.
Inside the Jade Dining Hall!
Mo Xingjian sat on the side, a pampering smile on his face, quietly watching the two wolf down their food.
"Don’t rush, there’s more if it’s not enough!" Mo Xingjian said kindly.
With his mouth full, Yan Xiaohu mumbled, "It’s the food at ho that tastes best. The dishes at the academy, even dogs wouldn’t eat them."
Zhou Qing couldn’t help but laugh, "Third Senior Brother, you visited the Inner Courtyard’s kitchen quite often."
Yan Xiaohu scratched his head awkwardly, "That’s why the comparison can be made."
Hearing this, Mo Xingjian couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
These two guys had been away for more than half a year, and they hadn’t changed one bit, still the sa temperant.
After eating and drinking their fill, Yan Xiaohu leaned back comfortably, picking at his teeth, and looked around curiously, "Master, why does the sect feel much emptier?"
Mo Xingjian’s expression beca slightly solemn, and he said slowly, "A few days ago, a strong tremor spread throughout the Eastern Domain. The Sect Leader took all the Peak Masters out to investigate, and many disciples were also sent out."
Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohu instinctively looked at Zhou Qing, a hint of panic flashing in his eyes.
Zhou Qing also felt uneasy, lowering his head slightly, a touch of embarrassnt crossing his face.
Seeing the guilty looks on their faces, Mo Xingjian quickly sensed sothing, his piercing gaze fixed on the two of them, and he asked in a deep voice, "Was that tremor caused by you two?"
Without a mont’s hesitation, Yan Xiaohu, full of guilt, recounted the entire incident in detail.
When Mo Xingjian heard that Zhou Qing had actually managed to kill a legendary Spirit Severing Realm expert, his eyes widened with disbelief.
With a wave of his hand, a Sound Insulation Restriction appeared, and then he urgently asked, "What exactly happened?"
Yan Xiaohu was also extrely curious about this.
Ever since the incident, he had been entirely clueless.
Zhou Qing had no choice but to recount what happened at Spirit Skull Mountain in detail.
Mo Xingjian and Yan Xiaohu listened dumbfounded.
No wonder when you brought Lu Yaoyao back that one ti, the girl suddenly broke through two small realms, just from refining natural Thunder Liquid.
At this mont, Yan Xiaohu deeply regretted it. Had he known earlier, he wouldn’t have gone grave robbing with Lei Luo.
Mo Xingjian furrowed his brows.
No wonder such a strong tremor spread throughout the entire Eastern Domain; turns out, it ca from two Spirit Severing Realm experts self-destructing.
"And that blood curse on you—" Mo Xingjian asked worriedly.
Zhou Qing reassured, "It’s really nothing, we’ll just consult the Second Great Uncle when the ti cos."
Mo Xingjian felt slightly more at ease upon hearing this.
Hope that old guy really has a solution.
Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Zhou Qing imdiately changed the topic, smiling, "By the way, Master, is there any news about Big Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister?"
Mo Xingjian shook his head slightly, feigning to complain, "Everyone’s busy with their own stuff, who has the ti to care about this old man."
