He got up and walked to the door, and just reached out to open the door, but saw Cang Wunian standing at his door, raising his hand to knock on the door and stopping in mid-air.

"Uh...... Brother Ah Nian, it's such a coincidence, I'm about to go to you. Qing Ci touched his nose, and sure enough, Cang Wunian saw some clues.

Cang Wunian nodded slightly, stepped into his room, and closed the door by the way.

"Something's wrong. Cang Wunianwu walked to the edge of the bed in the room, sat down on the edge of the bed, and asked in a calm tone.

"When I was having dinner, the head of the shadow guard of Qianjiying contacted me with a secret method, saying that Luo Fan's predecessors and his party arrived in the capital of Changyue five days ago, but as soon as they entered the capital, they were surrounded and suppressed by officers and soldiers, and Aunt Hui was arrested. Qing Ci replied.

"Why Aunt Hui?" Cang Wunian was also the same as Qing Ci, unable to understand the reason for this.

So Qing Ci repeated the situation that the Shadow Guard had reported to him before, one by one, to Cang Wunian.

"From this point of view, that great master should also be a person with high mana. Otherwise, it shouldn't be difficult for seventy-seven forty-nine women with mana to rebel against him. After listening to Qing Ci's narration, Cang Wunian's brows couldn't help but become entangled.

"Hey, it's really a mortal's misfortune to meet this kind of bull ghost and snake god who goes on a crooked path. I don't know if Luo Fan's predecessors are the opponents of Ziqingke. Qing Ci lowered his eyes and sighed.

Cang Wunian pondered for a moment and said, "With his cultivation, he should be a rare opponent in the human world. I think he didn't do it for a long time, so he should have some kind of plan or some fear. I'm more worried about ...... Will Ziqingke ...... to Aunt Hui and them?"

Cang Wunian didn't finish his words, but as a man, Qing Ci already understood what he wanted to say from his eyes and tone.

This Ziqingke wants a woman with a beautiful appearance and magic power, and she doesn't want to be a virgin. If it was really a sacrifice for them, these women could still die with dignity, but what if not?

If he just wanted to collect yin and supplement yang, he used these women as a tool for his own harmony and double cultivation, and when they lost their value, he would kill them all in the name of "sacrificing to the sky". If so...... I'm afraid the situation is not so optimistic, and the more Aunt Hui stays inside, the more threatening she will be.

"If he dares to do that...... I'm going to make him regret coming into this world. Qing Ci narrowed his eyes slightly, and his tone was rare cold.

"You should have a way to get back to the human realm now. Cang Wunian asked in a low voice.

Qing Ci exhaled fiercely, "Yes, yes, but I don't worry about you." I've told the Shadow Guard to keep an eye on the situation over there, I think...... Now I can only trust Luo Fan's predecessors. There is still nearly a month to go before the so-called 'Heaven Worship Ceremony', and we should be in time to ......."

Cang Wunian nodded, got up and patted him on the shoulder, "Qingci, don't force yourself too much." I can feel that you're tired. Maybe my current mana is not as good as yours, but that doesn't mean you have to carry everything. Do you see what I mean?"

Qing Ci's eyes were slightly sour, and he suddenly had an urge to throw himself into his arms and cry. It's as if he was still the same little boy he was at the beginning, and if he couldn't beat it, he could return to the side of Delirium and Wind Annihilation to seek protection.

But now he can't, and before they really come back, he must shoulder the responsibility of protecting them, which is his duty to protect them.

"Brother Ah Nian, don't worry, I know how many catties and taels I have. "Maybe it won't be long before I become your little follower again, looking up to you galloping through the Three Realms.

Qing Ci smiled, with a deep expectation in his eyes.

When Cang Wunian left his room, there was a gentle knock on the door after a while, and he knew intuitively that it was An Ruyue.

Opening the door, the woman who warmed his heart gently leaned into his arms.

"Qingci, what's wrong with you today? Are you unhappy?" asked the woman in her arms carefully.

Qing Ci smiled lightly, stroked her hair, and said softly: "How can I, am I such a cautious person?"

"Actually, I can also guess that the speed of our ship returning is much faster than when we came, except for Ji Gongzi's transformation of the ship, the greater credit should belong to you. Even...... We've been able to move smoothly on the sea, and I'm afraid it's because of you. An Ruyue said softly.

"Oh, it seems that Yue'er has finally realized my importance?" Qingci said with a smile.

An Ruyue raised her head from his arms, stretched out her hand and poked his face, "You, it's like this every time, when will you be able to talk well?" It's annoying!"

Qing Ci was still smiling, hugging her waist and swaying gently from side to side, "What's so unhappy, you're too careful." I feel like life is good now, and I'm very satisfied. With me, you can be your little girl with peace of mind, I don't need you to share anything for me, I just hope that you will always be like now, just pretend to be me and Brother Ah Nian in your heart. ”

An Ruyue was stunned, a little unsure of what he meant. She has always had nothing to think about in her heart, and after falling in love with Qingci, she has one more him in her heart, and in addition, probably painting Allure is also one of the people she cares about the most. As for the others...... Maybe it's not unimportant, but it's not important enough for her to give up her life without hesitation.

But Qing Ci said that he didn't need her to share anything for him, should this be understood as he wanted her to be carefree, or because she was too weak to be qualified to share for him?

A faint sense of frustration welled up in her heart, An Ruyue rested her head on his chest again, "Qingci, I don't want to be your appendage, just like the cats and dogs you raise just to please you." I know, I'm not going to make progress, but ...... I will definitely work hard for you. I hope that one day, I will be able to stand alongside you instead of standing behind you and being powerless. Qingci, do you understand what I mean?"

Do you understand what I mean?

This is the second time he has heard this sentence today, it turns out that along the way, he wants to do everything he can to protect them, is it actually putting pressure on them?

He understood, how could he not understand. He was also weak and incompetent, and he was not worthy to stand by the side of delusion and wind oblivion. They helped him at first, maybe just a gesture, but after a long time, a friendship was born. But at that time, they were absolutely powerful, and they really didn't need him to share their worries.

But he can understand, he can understand the current mood of Cang Wunian and An Ruyue, and even he doesn't need to guess to know that Painting Allure must be in this mood. They are partners, friends, relatives, and he is not strong enough to be delusional, so he will be tired, and he will be powerless. He knew that they felt sorry for him.

But......

"Yue'er, I understand your intentions. You are willing to work hard, I am very happy, even if you are slack, I will not dislike you. In short, you should understand that whatever you are, you are unique in my heart. What about you, do you understand what I mean?" Qingci said softly, caressing her back.

"Well, I understand. It's like no matter what you become, you're unique to me. I love you, Qingci, for you, for the little prince, for Allure, I want to make myself better and better, and I must not hold you back. An Ruyue nodded lightly and said firmly.

"Heh, I'm looking forward to it. Qing Ci said with a low smile.

......

For most of the next half month, the seven-masted sand ship where the seven people were located moved forward at an unprecedented speed, and everyone's hearts were already clear, but no one asked again, and no one said anything.

One night, Hua Chengcheng stood alone in the bow of the boat, the cold wind was bleak, but she felt that the sea breeze blew her thoughts very clearly.

There was a sudden warmth behind her, and a fox fur was draped on her body, and the man's nice voice came: "Why are you standing alone outside here blowing the cold wind?"

Hua Chengcheng didn't look back, but naturally tilted his head back, leaned on the man's shoulder, and said softly: "Brother Wunian, something happened." You didn't say it, but I already guessed it. ”

Cang Wunian was silent for a moment, and sighed lightly, "Well, I was afraid that you would be worried, so I didn't tell you clearly." ”

"Is it Auntie, are they in any danger?" asked in a calm voice.

"It's going to be fine, don't worry. Cang Wunian replaced the answer with comfort.

"Yes, it will be fine. Luo Fan's predecessor has strong mana, how could something happen. But without thinking about his brother, Hua'er felt that he was very incompetent. Not only can't I help them, but as far as the current situation is concerned, I can't even help Qingci. You should have found out, he's been ...... lately. It's tiring. The tone of the painting Allure is very light, as if to say, Brother Wunian, look at how beautiful the night is tonight.

But under her soft tone, Cang Wunian felt the same helplessness and self-blame as him.

"If it were me, I would do the same for your safety. I have a feeling that he seems to be the master of the ocean, maybe not as exaggerated as 'master', but I have to admit that in the face of this endless ocean, he is much stronger than us, and we can only rely on him. Cang Wunian said lightly.

"I know, if it were me, I would do the same. It's just that...... I feel sorry for him. I always feel that he has a lot of things on his mind but can't talk about them. Do you feel that every time he looks at you and me, he has a helplessness that he wants to be understood, but he can't ask for it. I'm curious to know what's behind that helplessness. The face of Sven, who seemed to be not afraid of heaven and earth, appeared in front of the painting Allure, but her heart was irrepressibly sour.
