Jun Shi’s eyes were full of scrutiny, Qin Yu could not ignore it, so he also stopped, turned around and looked at him with deep eyes, “A flower demon named Xie Qiu.” After that, he continued to walk forward, without any intention of going into details, but this time Jun Shi did not intend to easily reveal it.
He stared at Qin Yu’s back and asked coldly, “It seems that you should have had a good chat. After all, less than half a day can make you describe him as interesting. What kind of person is he, A’Rong?”
Qin Yu cleared the spider web in front of him with a flick of his fingers and said, “Not as exaggerated as you said.”
Does this mean that their relationship is not as good as he said? Jun Shi was about to curl his lips when he heard Qin Yu say, “This is not the first time I have met him. In fact, there is still half a day.” Jun Shi clenched his fists, “I am sorry for cutting down your time together without knowing the truth.” In response, Qin Yu said very rationally, “It’s just a small matter, just remember it next time.”
Upon hearing this, Jun Shi’s eyes widened instantly, with an expression of disbelief on his face. You want me to remember it, and you still say it’s a small matter? He took a deep breath and planned to refute Qin Yu, but suddenly heard Qin Yu say, “I don’t know if it’s an illusion, since I came out of the cave, I always feel that you are different from before, your behavior and personality are like that of a different person.”
Jun Shi’s eyes flashed with a faint light, and then he snorted and said, “I said before, I want to dampen Su Zian’s spirit, so my performance is different from before.” Qin Yu nodded and agreed with this statement. Despite this, Jun Shi still shut up and returned to his cold and taciturn appearance a few days ago. But Jun Shi was still entangled in the matter of Xie Qiu, and the more he thought about it, the tighter his brows frowned. Finally, he angrily passed Qin Yu who had been walking in front of him, “I’ll clear the way.” As he said, he waved his hand, and the extra debris on the corridor that had been unattended to for many years instantly turned into ashes, and then he walked forward with big strides and fluttering clothes.
Qin Yu saw this, raised his eyebrows slightly and his eyes were full of smiles, but when he thought of Jun Shi’s question about what kind of person Xie Qiu was, his eyes became solemn again. At the beginning, Xie Qiu was a timid peony flower demon in his mind. If there was anything special, he was particularly bold in courtship. But after the reunion in the secret realm, Qin Yu had a different view of him. At that blood-sucking moment, it was impossible to say that he was timid. It was not an exaggeration to say that he had experienced a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. Qin Yu had doubts about him since then. However, Xie Qiu’s attitude towards him was the same as before, it was still unbearable for him. What surprised Qin Yu even more was that he saw the shadow of Pei Jinzhi in Xie Qiu, obviously… Thinking of this, Qin Yu fixed his eyes on Jun Shi. Obviously, he had always guessed that Jun Shi was his lover, otherwise he would not easily walk with the other party…
The two walked all the way and finally passed through the dim and tortuous corridor, but the question also came up, “Which way to go?” Jun Shi asked Qin Yu as they stood in front of the two forks. Qin Yu glanced at the road on the right. It was a winding path that was easy to overlook if you didn’t pay attention. It was overgrown with weeds and uneven. You couldn’t tell what it looked like before and you can’t know where it led to. The other road was the same, but it was obviously flatter than the road on the right.
“This one.” Qin Yu pointed to the right. “Okay.” Jun Shi didn’t question it at all and directly followed Qin Yu’s choice. Qin Yu couldn’t help but raise the corners of his lips, then quietly made a gesture with his hand, leaving a little thing on the other road.
Outside the stone gate, when the last ray of the setting sun disappeared, Su Zian stretched and turned to walk into the door. He came to the Nine-Layer Secret Realm to regain the favor of his master. How could he watch him stay with another person all the time and not get involved? As for danger, Su Zian was not afraid. With the experience of being rescued from danger by Qin Yu several times in his previous life, he already knew how powerful Qin Yu was and it was impossible for him to be unable to save people. Even though he hasn’t worshiped him as his master in this life, Su Zian believed that Qin Yu would definitely save him when he was in danger. After all, he had no reason to stand by and watch him die.
On the other hand, if it was Qin Yu who was in danger, even if he could not help in a substantial way, if he could show up in time, it would surely be a hundred benefits without any harm. The more Su Zian thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, and his pace became faster and faster.
From the moment he stepped into the stone gate, Qin Yu, who sensed his breath, immediately raised his lips. This moment was captured by the sharp-eyed Jun Shi. He grabbed the rope with one hand to stabilize the shaking wooden bridge, and with the other hand, he held the sword to split the monster that was waving its wings and attacking them in the middle. Then he turned around and kicked the dark skeleton into the boiling bloody river under the bridge. Then, taking advantage of a moment of free time, he asked Qin Yu, “Are you happy?”
Qin Yu frowned slightly, quickly pulled Jun Shi behind him, and dealt with another enemy head-on. Then, while shaking off the blood on the sword, he said, “I am very happy.”
Jun Shi put his hand on the part that Qin Yu had just touched and asked, “Because of Xie Qiu?”
“No.” Qin Yu denied.
It’s okay if it’s not. Jun Shi immediately raised his hand to cover the corners of his lips that were raised. The next moment, as if he had thought of something, he put his hand down again as his smile disappeared. “Let’s move forward.”
Qin Yu looked at Jun Shi softly for a while and then said, “Okay.”
Then the two of them set off on their journey again. To be honest, Qin Yu was quite surprised. He thought Jun Shi would question his choice. After all, there were constant crises along the way. For example, the danger he encountered just now could only be regarded as a small episode. Jun Shi not only did not blame him, but fought against the enemy with him all the way without any complaints.
But Qin Yu did not really choose this road casually. After eliminating several waves of enemies, Qin Yu looked at the pavilion in front of him that exuded an ominous atmosphere and showed an obvious smile. They had arrived at their destination…
On the other side, Su Zian looked at the two roads in front of him that led in two different directions. He was entangled and couldn’t make up his mind. Which one should he choose? Seeing that time was passing, Su Zian became more and more anxious. If this continued, they would come out soon after they solved all the problems. Could it be that all his plans would be delayed by one road?
Su Zian was so anxious that he paced in place. Suddenly, the wind blew and he smelled a scent of green grass. Su Zian suddenly had an idea. He got it. He could judge which way they took by sensing the breath of his master. After all, he was once Qin Yu’s apprentice and his skills came from the same source as his. It was easy to do this in a short distance.
**********
“I didn’t expect that the Nine-Layered Ancestor would hide his treasure house under the pavilion. It’s hidden quite well.” Jun Shi sighed as he looked at the dazzling treasure house after removing the mechanism.
Qin Yu lit up the wall lamps everywhere and said, “Could it be that Your Highness likes to put his treasures at the door for people to admire?”
Jun Shi glanced at him and said meaningfully, “Of course it depends on the situation. If I get a treasure that I like very much and is unique in the world, I will naturally want to let everyone in the world know about it.”
Qin Yu stood in the shadows and said with an unclear expression, “But I haven’t heard that Your Highness has any treasures that are known to the world?”
“Don’t worry, it will be heard soon.” Jun Shi said confidently and Qin Yu smiled meaningfully, “Then I wish Your Highness to get what you want soon.” Qin Yu didn’t take long to find the ancestor’s weapon.
Unexpectedly, “It’s not a sword?” Jun Shi looked at the guzheng in Qin Yu’s arms and marveled. Tianyan Sect is a famous sword cultivation sect in the world of cultivation and he thought that the weapon Qin Yu mentioned should be a sword.
“This is the weapon of Sect Master Wen Shang…” Qin Yu gently plucked the strings of the zither. Sect Master Wen Shang was one of the few female sect masters in Tianyan Sect and she was not a sword cultivator. She lived a free and easy life, daring to love and hate, but unfortunately, she died together with the devil who brought disaster to the world. Since her death, her only intact life weapon had been missing. During this period, the Tianyan Sect has been sending people to look for it, and they finally found that it was hidden by the Jiuchong Patriarch a few years ago.
“So that’s how it is.” Jun Shi sighed after hearing this.
“By the way.” Qin Yu asked him, “Have you found Chuntu?” They had been acting separately just now and Qin Yu didn’t know what he had gained. Jun Shi shook his head dejectedly when he heard this, “No, I plan to look for it again.”
Taking advantage of the time when he was alone looking for the guzheng, Qin Yu went to complete another task. He was in a good mood and said, “I’ll look for it with you.”
“Thank you, A’Rong.” As a result, the two of them searched the treasure house together, but still couldn’t find it, but there were a lot more things in their storage bags.
“I think it’s not here.” Qin Yu said to Jun Shi, and Jun Shi sighed, “You’re right. I have been looking for it outside the secret realm for a long time and I always found nothing. I thought I would find it this time, but it turned out to be a false alarm. Maybe I am not destined to find it.” At the end, Jun Shi smiled bitterly.
Qin Yu thought of something, “Have you looked everywhere you can think of?” Jun Shi nodded, “Yes.”
“Oh?” Qin Yu raised his lips and stared at him, “Then have you ever thought that it might be with your father, the Demon Lord.” Jun Shi took a step back and said, “A’Rong always surprises me.”
Qin Yu spread his hands, “You can think about it and ask the Demon Lord when you get out, it’s better than working in vain.” Jun Shi smiled and agreed.
Since they couldn’t find it here, there was no point in staying any longer, so the two of them went back the same way. Since they had spent a lot of effort coming here, they felt much more relaxed when they went out.
The moment they walked out of the stone gate, Jun Shi found something wrong. According to his understanding of Su Zian, when Qin Yu came out, Su Zian should have rushed over immediately. But now he was huddled in a corner with his hands on his knees.
“Su Zian” Jun Shi called softly. Hearing someone calling, Su Zian immediately turned his head. Jun Shi and Qin Yu also saw his pale face filled with fear.
