Chapter 358 Wonderful
The so-called sake night talk naturally involves drinking, and because of the tension between Mo Huaizun and the others, it eventually turned into a drinking contest.
Zhu Jiu and Wen Ren Se Jue had no competitiveness in this track and both fell asleep in seconds.
As daybreak approached, snow began to fall from the sky.
Everyone was lying crookedly on the wine table, and those who were standing on the top were completely defenseless at the moment.
The smell of alcohol was dissipated by the cold air.
In the silence, one person stood up, not drowsy or drunk.
Ji Qi, who was sleeping soundly while holding a huge wine jug, was hugged. His rosy little face looked adorable and innocent.
Zhu Jiu took a step forward, and the two of them appeared at the top of the mountain, surrounded by mist and clouds.
"I heard that people pretending to be asleep need to be woken up by a kiss. Is that true?" Zhu Jiu muttered to himself as he looked at the rolling misty mountains in the distance.
How can an inanimate vehicle get drunk?
It was quiet and no one responded to her.
Zhu Jiu lowered his head and approached Ji Qi's cheek. When he was about to touch it, he opened his eyes, and his vision was clear, without any sign of drunkenness.
Ji Qi left Zhu Jiu's embrace, holding up the huge wine pot that was almost as tall as him, and asked with a half-smile, "Who did you kiss?"
"faint."
Zhu Jiu was stunned, his expression frozen.
This name came from the hazy horizon, and it seemed as if it had spanned a century.
Quiet... Quiet...
Who else in the world would call her that?
“Stars——” Zhu Jiu stretched out his hand, took a step forward eagerly, but grabbed nothing.
Ji Qi took a step back. He wanted to say that he was Ji Qi, not Xingxing, but when he saw Zhu Jiu's miserable expression and the crystal clearness in the corners of his eyes, all his words stopped abruptly.
His tense body gradually relaxed. Ji Qi lowered his head, threw away the wine jug, and moved closer to hug Zhu Jiu's neck.
He whispered softly in her ear: "Yes, I'm here."
Ji Qi was hugged tightly, with warm liquid around his neck wetting his collar. The hands that embraced him were like trying to catch a person in a dream.
Ji Qi was shocked. He couldn't help but get anxious and started crying, "Why are you crying? You are not allowed to cry."
I carefully searched through the memories in my mind, but I couldn't find any time when Zhu Jiuyou cried.
Now, just because of his title...
Zhu Jiu's tears flowed even more fiercely, and she rubbed him and said vaguely: "You didn't recognize me, and you even avoided me. Why can't I cry? I will cry!"
The accusation and grievance in that voice seemed to be overflowing.
Ji Qi felt so bitter in his heart that he couldn't help crying. After a moment of silence, he bowed his head and apologized: "I'm sorry, I was wrong."
"You weren't being very cool just now, so why did you make a mistake? Is this true?" Zhu Jiu hummed a few times with a heavy nasal voice.
Ji Qi blushed slightly, "I'm wrong, I'm sorry, I'm just an idiot, okay?"
Zhu Jiu: "Just one sentence?"
"Then what do you say we should do?" Ji Qi sighed helplessly.
"I want you to stay by my side like before." Zhu Jiu said softly, with a determined smile on his lips, his hands clenched tightly.
The cold wind blew again and again, but Ji Qi remained silent.
The smile on Zhu Jiu's lips widened, and his eyes darkened, "It doesn't matter whether you are willing or not. From now on, I will not let you leave my side."
"After ten days, we will leave the Nine Netherworld. There is no point in recalling memories, finding the truth, or overturning the verdict."
"Why should I care what those people think? If they offend me, I'll just kill them."
A few words, delicate and gentle, are determined to win.
After all, how could the stars escape from her grasp now?
After removing Xingjun’s memory, Ji Qi felt Zhu Jiu’s madness for the first time.
"Ten days...what are you going to do?" He asked nervously, "During the promotion assessment, you said those things on purpose, right?"
"Xingxing still understands me the best." Zhu Jiu stroked Ji Qi's head with a smile, his eyebrows curved, "Before leaving, I will give this world one last little test."
"I hope you won't let me down."
Zhu Jiu laughed quietly and looked very happy, as if he had seen his most proud student become the top scorer in the imperial examination.
Ji Qi tries to convince Zhu Jiu to let him complete his mission.
But the latter covered his mouth and looked down at him with deep and gentle eyes, "There is no second possibility for this matter. I will not lose you again."
Ji Qi's heart was beating so fast that he almost thought he was really the Star Lord, not a pieced-together fragment.
……
After that day, those who had indulged themselves for a night had to return to normal, and people like Chu Yi who had "families" went back.
The first thing they did was to announce the next successor to ensure that everything was on track and the situation was not too chaotic when they were gone.
The thinking logic of several people is: according to the Chaos Cliff incident, if you are in the position, you should do your job, then... if you are not in the position, you don't need to do your job, so you can drop everything and follow Zhu Jiu.
People from all the major forces were in a panic, feeling a sense of crisis that their boss, who supported the entire force, might abscond with the money with his sister-in-law at any time.
After Ji Qi knew about this, he sent a communication talisman to mock him.
Ji Qi: You know, without your current status, you wouldn't have an endless supply of spiritual stones. Without spiritual stones, how could you satisfy Zhu Jiu's need to spend a fortune? What's the point of having you?
Several people:……
This kid has such a vicious tongue.
At the same time, Xi Lingyi's group of three were as quiet as a chicken, as if they were avoiding Zhu Jiu's edge. They couldn't be honest, and Jueya gradually regained his previous control.
All the major forces in the entire cultivation world are reluctant to give up their power. It turns out that status is earned through top-notch combat power.
When he thought of Zhu Jiu's disproportionate strength in the Jiuyou Realm, he felt despair. When the hell would they be able to produce a Yuan Zun?
I'm already honest, please let me go.
However, there was a bloody turmoil inside Qianzhou, and a major purge was underway.
After all, it is no exaggeration to say that the entire Qianzhou is a gathering place for evil spirits. There is no most perverted, only more perverted. There are too many people who need to be executed or arrested.
Wen Zhuoer has gone crazy with killing, dragging away hundreds of corpses from the Commander's Mansion every day. Oh, the Commander's Mansion was the former evil sect.
She did not have enough troops, and it was only when people from Penglai Island came to support her that the pressure was relieved.
Wen Zhuoer's reputation as a ruthless person is feared by everyone because of his loyalty to the right path and several shocking backstabbings at Chaos Cliff.
Especially the evil cultivator who was running for his life every day, he wanted to tear her apart in his dreams.
The name Commander Wen is like a thorn in the side of a tree. Everyone who mentions her feels extremely complicated.
She is dangerous, ruthless, cold-blooded, and ready to stab anyone at any time. She is like a blood-drinking weapon.
Penglai Fairy Island actually wanted to replace such a rebellious character, but they had no choice but to accept it because of Zhu Jiu behind her.
In the eyes of Jueya's true disciples, Zhu Jiu had been elusive since those day and night talks. No one knew what he was busy with Ji Qi and Gui Ji Ling, and it even took a long time for him to reply to messages.
But sometimes I heard that she would appear in the territory of Jueya and his people.
……
In Yushu Pavilion, Bai Wuchang was dressed in white and had just returned from outside. There was still a faint smell of blood on her body. She had a cold expression as she reported matters to Mo Huaizun.
"...Penglai Fairy Island, Qiankun Holy Temple, and Beimai Sword Sect have been too quiet and obedient recently. It feels too weird."
It’s not strange to say it’s strange, but it’s also strange to say it’s weird.
The main strange thing was that when she met with the leaders of these sects to discuss matters, she always felt that they were too easy to talk to. Even the Lord of the Sword of Destruction was so docile and did not show any anger or resentment.
Is this normal? That's the Lord of the Desolate Blade. If something is out of the ordinary, there must be something fishy going on.
She always felt that there were undercurrents underneath and things were not as calm as they seemed on the surface, so she sent people to continue investigating and came to Mo Huaizun specifically to report.
Mo Huaizun paused while writing, raised his head, and said calmly, "Don't worry about this matter, and don't investigate it. Just let him go."
Bai Wuchang: "?"
She said that this was the first time she received such a strange order from Mo Huaizun.
I feel like the other party knows something and there must be something behind it.
But Bai Wuchang was not curious. She only knew one thing: since there was no need to investigate, she finally had a day off after working seven consecutive days.
Wonderful, wonderful.
