I was hiding from gods and demons at the beginning, but it turned out that I was the boss

I obtained the magic space last night, and it was only on Qingtian that I used magic power to convert spiritual power and take out the items from my spiritual space.

The cat head ring combined with puppetry allowed Emile to crack one of his storage rings, and Qingtian gained a huge storage trove. Emile hid most of his wealth in the specially made ring.

Qingtian raised his hand to show the cat head ring, with a smile on his face containing a hint of sigh.

"Emir can no longer switch sides because I replaced him."

"..."

"..."

After a few minutes, the atmosphere in the private room became harmonious. It was a rare occasion for the three of them to get together and have a meal alone.

Although Qingtian was not very happy with the meal, because her puppetry was not to resurrect the dead, and was different from Tasriel's psychic power.

Although Emil, as a puppet, could be controlled by magic, he had no sense of taste and could not digest food. Qingtian found the food tasteless and had to spit it out afterwards...

So, why did she order a table full of delicious dishes to disgust herself!

……

Two hours later, the three of them finished their secret talk. The next step was to wait for the Southern Alliance to deal with the matters concerning the dungeon and the Poke family before taking Qingtian back.

Qingtian returned to Twin Cities with the signed agreement and the image stone that recorded the soul contract. Bai Jingyan stayed here to wait for Qingtian to be picked up, while Lorenzo had to rush back to the Southern Alliance to complete the superficial agreement as soon as possible.

As they were leaving, Qingtian gently asked Lorenzo what happened to his leg. Lorenzo gloomily told him about the fight with Tasriel.

After hearing this, Qingtian comforted him, but by the time they left the town, his mood had fallen to the lowest point.

If Lorenzo left the magic house that day and never returned, who was the person who hugged her at night?

The person who could break the space restriction of the Magic House and walk into his own room was Tasriel who appeared in Meijing that day, or the former owner of the Magic House, the Demon Emperor - now Bai Jingyan?

But just now Bai Jingyan was very calm...

Or someone else.

But from all accounts, it is more likely that Taslir was the one, because he contacted me that day... and it is very likely that he was in Red Square at that time.

For a moment, Qingtian was filled with anger. She didn't care about losing, but she cared whether there was love and whether it was the result of mutual consent.

Even though she is now influenced by evil thoughts and doesn't value emotions as much as before, she still feels disgusted by this.

Restraining his anger, Qingtian rode his horse slowly along the forest path of Dakkin.

She needs time to digest, time to suppress negative emotions and heal the wounds in her heart.

"You don't seem very happy. Are you hiding something from us?" Bai Jingyan, who quietly followed the clear sky, appeared in the air.

He didn't expect that the two would meet under such circumstances today after removing the Demon Soul Seed.

And Qingtian appeared in the guise of another man...

Qingtian looked up at him and said coldly, "Lord Bai Jing, stalking is not a good habit. Besides, I hate others guessing what I'm thinking."

Bai Jingyan felt a little sad.

During the three-person talk just now, Qingtian was obviously more distant towards him, and he had a better understanding with Lorenzo, and their attitude was even somewhat intimate.

He knew that Qingtian had forgotten the past and had the right to make his own choices, but he still felt uncomfortable.

So when I found out that she was in a low mood after coming out, I couldn't help but ask about the situation.

However, at this moment, Qingtian's entire body was covered with sharp thorns, like a ball of ice flame that wanted to burn everything...

After thinking for a while, Bai Jingyan said gently: "Do you want me to accompany you to practice the puppet body? Soul transfer control is not as easy as you think."

Qingtian wanted to refuse, but at this moment she really needed an outlet to vent.

After a while, the two found a place deep in the forest to practice.

Qingtian didn’t know how many times he fell, nor how many times he knocked Bai Jingyan down, until he no longer had the strength to stand up.

The grass on the ground smelled of earth, and the afternoon sun was so dazzling that it burned painfully.

Bai Jingyan looked at her worriedly, sat next to her and comforted her:

"You seem to be carrying too much, and sometimes you can let go of the burden and share it with a friend."

Qingtian crossed his arms and covered his face, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Then why can't you let go of the demons?"

Bai Jingyan sighed softly.

Everyone has their own obsessions and things that they can't let go of.

He also lay down on the grass and said lazily, "Just like you, it's fate."

Is it destiny?

It was sunny and I couldn't shed tears. I could only stare blankly at the sky. Everyone was struggling for their own destiny...

The wool-white clouds slowly floated away into the distance, and the breeze soothed the dryness.

After a long while, Qingtian turned around and looked at Bai Jingyan who was resting with his eyes closed.

His long, shiny silver hair spread out on the green grass, and his graceful profile seemed like lines engraved on a silver plate, smooth and soft.

"Do I look good?" Bai Jingyan opened his eyelids, his grey eyes shining with a bit of mischief.

Qingtian was stunned for a second, then said affirmatively: "It looks good. You are not bad in this life."

Bai Jingyan showed a helpless smile, "What a pity, you are praising me with this face."

Otherwise, I should thank you with a kiss...

Qingtian reacted and twitched his lips. Using Emile's identity was quite disgusting...

"It's time to go. Remember to hurry up and pick me up early."

"See you in Broken Canyon..."

When Qingtian got on the horse, Bai Jingyan suddenly pulled her back and said sincerely, "Qingtian, no matter what happens, I am willing to be your retreat."

Hearing this, Qingtian looked at him in surprise.

Aren’t we good colleagues in this life?

Without waiting for her to answer, Bai Jingyan turned around and slapped the horse's butt, "Go, take care of yourself!"

The horse started to gallop. Qingtian turned around and saw Bai Jingyan standing there, bidding farewell with a gentle smile on his face.

"Bai Jingyan! Thank you. Today's sparring was very enjoyable."

Qingtian said loudly and rode away from the forest quickly.

Bai Jingyan stood in the sun, smiling happily.

Forgetting is a regret, but also a new beginning.

……

We returned to the Twin Cities on a sunny day before dinner, and the avenue along the way was crowded with carriages and horses.

Although some projects in the Twin Cities have not yet officially opened, evening business has already begun.

As one of the city lords, Qingtian used Emile's identity to enter the city smoothly, and went straight to the main castle at the innermost part through the brightly lit and crowded riding path.

After receiving the news, Pokjie slowly sat up from his bedroom bed and gently rubbed his head which was aching from time to time.

It’s five o’clock…

Touching his shriveled stomach, he looked at An Ruli who was still sleeping with a complicated expression.

The charming sleeping face of the woman still exudes the charm after the madness. With just a little teasing, she can turn into a witch and get whatever she wants.

The two of them spent the whole day together, as if they had returned to the days when the Count of Anjou sent her here.

Pokjie sighed, stood up, put on his clothes, and walked out of the room.

Not long after, Qingtian's figure appeared in the corridor.

"Why did the talk take so long? Was it not going well?" Pokjie asked, leaning against the corridor.

Qingtian took out an agreement and an image stone and handed them to him. "The process was tortuous, but the result is quite satisfactory."

Pokjie smiled and whistled, then took the document and the image stone and took a quick look at them.

"Now it all depends on how Luo Lunbei and Bai Jingyan perform. I think they will act quickly to get Luo Lundel back as soon as possible. After all, no one wants to leave their woman alone with another man."

After saying this, Pokjie looked at Emile, who was possessed by the soul of Qingtian, with an ambiguous expression.

Qingtian blinked her eyes. Pokjie had something to say, but she couldn't understand it...

Seeing that Emile didn't respond, Pokjie lowered his eyes and said, "Anjuli has been with me today."

It's better to make some things clear. He and Emile are friends for life and have been working together for a long time. There's no need to hurt their relationship because of a woman.

Oh? Qingtian blinked. Should I stop him?

She said calmly: "Then stay together."

Pokjie raised an eyebrow, "If you have no objection, I would like to keep her for a while."

"......Okay." Qingtian answered according to his words.

Seeing Emile so calm, Pokjie shook his head and smiled, "It seems that you really don't care anymore. No wonder she said that you are fickle..."

I see......

Qingtian looked down on them in his heart and said lightly, "You two are all together now, so it doesn't matter whether I mind or not. Um... I have to go back tomorrow, can you let me know if there is any news from the Southern Alliance?"

Emile said this because he didn't want to discuss Anjou Li's affairs anymore. Pokjie didn't ask any more questions. "Okay, go ahead. I'll contact you if there's anything."

Qingtian thought for a moment and said, "I'll go see Laurendel. You can have dinner brought up later."

Pokjie curled his lips, "Okay, I hope she recovers soon. The magic soul seed in Anjuli is very effective. If she is the same, plus you and I can control her, she will be a perfect chess piece."

Just as Qingtian was about to leave, he suddenly stopped.

Anjuli...is another recipient of Emil's demon seed...
