"Is the lady awake?"

The maid nodded and looked into the room cautiously, but she only saw Qu Jin sitting in front of the window in a daze.

"Sect Master, the young lady just kept sitting like this without saying a word."

"Eh...I'll remember it eventually..."

The sect master waved his hand and signaled the maid to go down. The maid bowed, walked out slowly, and closed the door behind her.

Na Qujin didn't even blink when he heard the sound.

"Jin'er." The sect leader called.

Seeing that his daughter had no reaction, the sect leader shook his head helplessly. He knew that his daughter was blaming him.

"I remembered." Na Qujin said.

"I remembered all this." A line of tears streaked down Qu Jin's cheek.

"Jin'er, forget about those things and those people." The sect leader said earnestly.

"Dad, how could I forget? I can't forget." Qu Jin covered her face and cried bitterly. The sect leader stepped forward and pulled her into his arms, patting her shoulder lightly.

"Your mother passed away early... In the past, I was always busy with matters within the sect and neglected it. I am sorry for you." The sect master raised his hand and wiped his face.

"Dad, it's not your fault, it's all those damn demons..." Qu Jin glared sharply and stood up.

"Jin'er! Jin'er!!" the sect leader shouted.

"Daddy can't lose you anymore."

Na Qujin looked at her father. There were a few more white hairs on the temples, and her face looked a little more vicissitudes of life. During the days when she disappeared, her father worked hard and almost became a demon. Now that she had just been raised, he was still working on his own affairs. …Na Qujin couldn’t bear it.

"Jin'er, Yangyan Sect is yours after all, daddy...is getting old."

What the sect leader said was not groundless, but he was planning for Naqujin with all his heart. He had worked so hard for her to regain her former cultivation level, but he might not be able to hold on any longer, so he had to make plans for Naqujin early.

"Daddy...I..."

"No need to say any more, I don't have many days left."

"How could this happen..." Na Qujin focused on moving forward, but forgot to look back.

"Dad's only wish is to see you inherit Yangyan Sect."

"I will, I won't let dad down."

"Eh... How can you defend Yang Yan Sect alone? I'm afraid you can't even recognize the elders of several peaks." Although the words of the sect leader were meant to be ridiculing, they were true.

That Qujin had the temper of a young lady. Except for her cultivation, she never looked at people in the eyes. After being tortured, she did not want to go out to meet guests.

The elders of several peaks did not agree with her becoming the sect leader, saying that she had long since become a member of the demon clan and was embarrassed by her important position. However, the sect leader insisted that Qu Jin take that position despite all opinions.

"What do you think of the people of Yaolin Sect?"

The sect master's words woke up Na Qu Jin. She was shocked, but she smiled bitterly. She had long accepted that she could not be the master of the marriage contract, but now that it had come to this, she felt unwilling to do so.

"The person Daddy likes is naturally good." Na Qujin said with a wry smile.

"Okay, okay." Seeing that his daughter had regained consciousness, the sect master was very pleased.

"Qi Zhiyuan is a good boy, I can rest assured leaving you to him." The sect master patted Qu Jin on the shoulder happily.

With Qi Zhiyuan's protection, Qu Jin's future path will be much smoother.

"In this case, I will write a letter of divorce to the Qi family so that you can have a good rest."

Na Qujin nodded, watched his father leave, and turned to look out the window.

The sunshine is very good today, but the light and shadow cannot shine in when it shines in front of the window. Gradually, the light and shadow become farther and farther away, and can no longer be seen.

"We are selling steamed buns! Freshly baked steamed buns! Fragrant steamed buns! Sir, do you want one?"

Rong Nian looked at the buns in front of him. They were round and soft, and looked delicious. He was about to nod, but Ning Chenxing grabbed him.

"You haven't figured out what this place is yet, so don't eat blindly." Ning Chenxing said to Rong Nian with the pastry he just bought in his mouth.

"Tch, aren't you eating it yourself?" Rong Nian felt that Ning Chenxing's appearance was very unconvincing.

"I'm... just to recharge my batteries, what do you know?"

"Can you swallow what's in your mouth?"

Rong Nian shook his head helplessly. She was obviously a fasting person, but she still seemed to be hungry and kept eating. Could it be that she was a hidden big eater.

"Zhao, have you seen any clues? We've been around this city four or five times." Ning Chenxing said angrily. She had eaten everything in the city except for that sweet shop. , she also wanted to try it.

"Forget it, ignore him, I'll treat you to some sugar water." Ning Chenxing rolled her eyes at Zhao Wuyin and dragged Rong Nian towards the sugar water shop.

Zhao Wuyin silently observed the people around him. The people here did not show any unnecessary expressions when they saw outsiders... Logically speaking, when they saw people coming from out of town, they would look at them and they would not be so... familiar.

"Boss, please give me two bowls of sugar water."

"okay!"

"Sir, your sugar water is here."

"Please enjoy."

Rong Nian looked at the bowl in front of him. The pattern on the edge of the bowl was like ripples of water and fish jumping, which was quite pretty.

"Eat quickly, eat quickly! If you don't eat, I will eat everything." Ning Chenxing was like a starving ghost reincarnated, eating one bowl at a time, and then ordered another bowl.

Rong Nian took a spoonful and tasted it. It was a bit bland, but it was better because it was refreshing and refreshing. After a while, the bottom of the bowl was gone.

Zhao Wuyin sat down beside them, and Ning Chenxing was not angry when she saw him coming.

"Are you trying to trick me? I don't think there's anything weird about this place."

"The weirdest thing is what's not weird." The two looked at each other, and Ning Chenxing smiled. She felt that Zhao Wuyin wasn't too stupid.

When Rong Nian saw the two of them playing riddles, he couldn't participate, so he simply stopped participating.

"Little Second!"

"Sir, what's the matter? Do you need more water?" the waiter asked.

"Who is in charge of affairs in your city?"

As soon as he spoke, the sounds next to him stopped, and the peaceful atmosphere suddenly froze. Rong Nian looked a little scared, and leaned closer to Zhao Wuyin. He had a high level of cultivation, so if he wanted to fight, he would be the first to strike.

"The guest officer is joking, there is no one in charge in our city." The waiter said blankly and blankly.

"You guys? Isn't this Shuiwei Town?"

As soon as Ning Chenxing finished speaking, the sound of bells ringing came to his ears. How could there be a big Buddhist bell here?

The people next to them stared at the three of them with terrifying eyes.

Ning Chenxing pulled Rong Nian, and the three of them leaned against each other.

"But they are just mortals, there is nothing to be afraid of, don't worry." Ning Chenxing said to Rong Nian.

Rong Nian nodded. It seemed that these people still existed as human beings and were not possessed by other things.

There was a sound outside, which seemed to be calling someone's name.

"The city lord, the three of them, have been wandering around the city for a long time." Someone seemed to be leading the way and slowly introduced.

Hearing the sound, they looked in that direction and saw people outside giving way one after another. A high sedan suddenly appeared in front of them. Several people looked at the flying weft. The person sitting inside must be the city lord.

The high sedan fell in front of them, and a man came out. Half of his face was covered with a mask, and his right hand was covered with thick armor along his arm, making him look tall.

"Take away." His voice was hoarse, and the words coming out of his throat did not sound like human words, but the guard next to him heard clearly and walked towards the three of them.

"No need to bother, we will follow ourselves." Ning Chenxing waved his hand, motioning for Rong Nian to follow.

The three of them followed the high sedan chair towards the city.

A transparent tower gradually rose up in the city. Looking up, there was a big bell on the top of the tower. I guess that was where the sound came from.

"Go in!" The guard behind him pushed. Rong Nian looked away and walked inside.

Different from how it looked outside, it looked narrow from the outside, but it was very spacious inside. When they entered, the door was closed, and the tower disappeared in front of everyone. No wonder they turned around four or five times without seeing it.
