Since Venerable Li Chen prefers quietness, there are only four people left on Lijian Peak besides himself, namely Long Miaomiao and her fellow disciples.

When they returned, the place was still as quiet and silent as before, almost the same as when they left.

Seeing this, Long Miaomiao's expectation and joy gradually disappeared, and she couldn't help but say, "Master is probably still in seclusion practicing."

Xie Yifan nodded repeatedly after hearing this, expressing his agreement: "I think that's right. In this case, is it necessary for us to go and see Master?"

Long Miaomiao hesitated for a moment, then suggested: "Why don't we go for a walk?"

After all, she still wanted to show off their achievements in the Immortal and Demon Arena in person. After all, Venerable Li Chen was the only elder she was truly close to.

Xie Yifan didn't comment, but nodded in agreement.

Gu Yunshi had no objection. The three of them didn't know where Venerable Li Chen was at the moment, so they had to go to the main hall first.

But they didn't know it.

Everything they said here was heard by Venerable Li Chen.

Then, suddenly, the voice of the Venerable Lichen floated into everyone's ears: "I am still in seclusion, you can do whatever you want, there is no need to disturb my meditation. In addition, each of your caves has a gift specially prepared by me as a reward for you."

After Venerable Li Chen finished speaking, silence returned to the surroundings.

Xie Yifan stretched lazily and said, "Since Master has said that we are not allowed to disturb him, I will go back to my cave. I must have a good rest this time. I wonder what Master has prepared for me?" There was a different kind of expectation in Xie Yifan's words.

"Let's go, let's go, Second Brother, please leave quickly." Gu Yunshi and Long Miaomiao drove him away without any reluctance.

After Xie Yifan turned and left, the seed of gossip in Long Miaomiao's heart took root and sprouted instantly, and grew wildly like weeds. She walked quickly and asked impatiently: "Senior sister, tell me quickly! How are you and Senior Brother Mu progressing now?"

At this moment, Long Miaomiao's eyes were filled with uncontrollable curiosity and anticipation, as if she would hear some earth-shattering secret from Gu Yunshi in the next second.

Facing such a look, Gu Yunshi no longer acted coyly, but answered very frankly: "Junior sister, actually, we haven't made any substantial progress yet. However, Senior Brother Mu invited me to go out and train together."

As soon as the words fell, Long Miaomiao immediately widened her eyes and asked, "So, Senior Sister, did you agree to him?"

"Not yet, I plan to think about it carefully." Gu Yunshi still had a faint smile on her face, indicating that she still wanted to maintain a certain degree of reserve.

Seeing this, Long Miaomiao could not help but sigh helplessly, and then continued to ask: "Senior Sister, what kind of feelings do you have for Senior Brother Mu? Is it really like what is written in those storybooks, that it is love at first sight? Or because he saved your life, you plan to repay this kindness with your body?"

Gu Yunshi was slightly stunned when she heard this, then she chuckled and explained, "It can't be said that I fell in love at first sight, but ever since I was rescued that time, I did have a slight liking for him. And later on, as we traveled together, he always took care of me meticulously, which gradually increased my liking for him."

After hearing the explanation of the ancient poem, Long Miaomiao thought to herself that it seemed that there seemed to be some kind of subtle tacit understanding and fate between these two people!

So, Long Miaomiao blinked mischievously and deliberately instigated, "Then why haven't you agreed to Brother Mu's request to train together? Is there anything you are worried about?" She looked at Gu Yunshi with full expectation, hoping to get a satisfactory answer from her.

Gu Yunshi showed a trace of confusion on her face, and said softly: "This... I can't explain it clearly, but I always feel that now is not the right time. Maybe we need more understanding and getting along..." Her eyes were a little confused, as if she was thinking about some important issue.

Hearing this, Long Miaomiao couldn't help scratching her head and asked in confusion, "Senior Sister, when will the time be considered ripe? Is it after you are more familiar with each other? Or do you need to go through some special things to be sure? But the premise of all this is that you have to agree to his training request."

Gu Yunshi sighed slightly and said softly, "That's true, but I feel that my current cultivation is still insufficient. Even if we go out to train together, I'm afraid I will be a burden to him."

Long Miaomiao keenly caught the trace of lack of confidence in Gu Yunshi's words, and quickly encouraged her: "Senior sister, don't underestimate yourself. In our cultivation world, it is rare for someone as young as you to reach such a level. So relax, Senior sister will definitely not hold you back!"

"Is it really so?" A hint of doubt flashed in Gu Yunshi's eyes.

Long Miaomiao nodded vigorously and answered firmly: "Of course it's true! However, if you really plan to go out for training, please remember to inform me in advance. Then, I will prepare more talismans and elixirs for you."

Feeling Long Miaomiao's sincere concern, Gu Yunshi's heart warmed up, and she responded without hesitation: "Okay, little sister."

The two walked side by side, chatting and laughing, and unknowingly they had arrived at the door of Gu Yunshi's cave.

Gu Yunshi smiled and invited warmly, "Junior sister, would you like to rest in my cave for a while?" His words revealed sincerity and kindness.

However, Long Miaomiao shook her head slightly, raised a playful smile and replied: "Thank you, Senior Sister, but I still have to rush back to my cave. Master may have prepared a big surprise for me. The same goes for Senior Sister. By the way, if you have made a decision, remember to tell me."

Before he finished speaking, before Gu Yunshi could enter the cave, Long Miaomiao left as quickly as a whirlwind and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Just as she said, at this moment Long Miaomiao's heart was full of curiosity and anticipation, and she couldn't wait to know what kind of surprise her master had prepared for her.

She ran back with brisk steps, like a happy little bird. Long Miaomiao had a feeling that this gift would also be a surprise.

As expected, when Long Miaomiao just stepped into her cave, she keenly sensed an extremely strong summoning aura.

Her heart tightened, and she immediately cast a spell to open the surrounding protective barrier to ensure safety. Then, she took out the ancient mirror that had just begun to become restless and kept moving around from the space without hesitation.

This mysterious mirror was almost put together last time, but now it behaves so unusually active, as if something important is about to happen.

Long Miaomiao thought to herself: "Could it be that..." A thought flashed through her mind, and she became more and more convinced of her guess - the generous gift given to her by her master must be inextricably linked to this mirror!

With full of expectations, Long Miaomiao walked quickly to the table and gently opened the exquisite wooden box on the table. When the lid was slowly lifted, a dazzling light suddenly burst out!

Looking closely, I saw that the corner of the mirror that had been missing was indeed lying quietly in it, emitting a charming luster.
