His eyes couldn't help but look at Sang Yunqi, who was still standing next to the stall without moving, and then he received a smile.

Chu Xinglan: “???”

However, the next second, Chu Xinglan's body froze.

He felt someone grabbing his trouser leg, and then he heard the familiar voice of his boss.

"My lady, I really didn't mean to offend you. You two are a perfect match. I was blind and didn't recognize you. I apologize. Please let me go."

Chu Xinglan no longer bothered to complain about the inappropriate title of "Empress". He slowly lowered his head and looked at his trouser legs that were tightly grasped, with a trace of confusion in his eyes.

He begged the queen, why did you arrest me?

Besides, how could he be called a queen? Even if he was the one at the bottom, he couldn't be called a queen, right? Isn't that a bit too disrespectful to him?

In just a short while, apart from the three of them, there was no sign of a fourth person on the street.

However, Chu Xinglan could still vaguely feel the prying eyes around him. A cool breeze blew by, and Chu Xinglan looked up at the sky, choking with speechlessness.

"Get up first and let go."

When the boss heard his voice, he shuddered again. Although he was very reluctant, he still let go of his hands obediently and knelt on the ground. He didn't dare to look at Chu Xinglan at all. He had completely lost his previous enthusiasm and cheerfulness.

Chu Xinglan: “…”

He took a deep breath and tried to make his tone sound softer.

"I'm not some queen, I'm just here to do some work, you got the wrong person."

Upon hearing this, the boss quickly agreed: "That's right, that's right, you are not the queen, you are the master."

The words he said were completely in line with Chu Xinglan's, but the tone he used was to express that everything you said was right and that whatever you said was what it meant, with sincerity yet perfunctory attitude.

Chu Xinglan speechlessly lifted the man up from the ground and said loudly into his ear: "I say, I'm not the queen you are talking about!"

The boss was so frightened that he was shaking like a sieve, and the next second, he fainted.

Chu Xinglan: “…”

He didn't know where the boss lived, and the two of them couldn't just stand on the street. In the end, Chu Xinglan carried him back to Sang Yunqi, took out a rocking chair from the space, and put the unconscious boss on it.

Sang Yunqi just watched his movements quietly, not saying whether he was happy or not, just kept looking at him.

After settling the boss, Chu Xinglan pursed his lips and sat aside dejectedly.

"Master, please laugh if you want to."

Just when he was mentally prepared to accept the sharp ridicule of his master, Sang Yunqi came over, touched his head, and sat down next to him.

"What's so funny? It was me who messed up Xinglan's plan."

Sang Yunqi was talking about the sentence in which he suddenly praised the boss. At that time, he really forgot that the average person's hearing is such that they cannot hear someone whispering when they are one meter apart.

If not for this, the boss would not have developed such rich associations and mistaken the two of them for some empress.

Thinking again about what happened in the small fishing village, Sang Yunqi looked at Chu Xinglan with emotion.

"He has a good eye. He picked out an insider right away. When he wakes up, we should be able to learn a lot of information from him."

He had to admit that sometimes his little apprentice was really lucky and could often achieve twice the result with half the effort every time.

After receiving the comfort from his master, Chu Xinglan felt a little better, and he also began to think about the information in the words he had just heard from his boss.

"Master, it seems that the one causing chaos in the small fishing village this time is a woman, otherwise these people would not call her Niangniang."

"Moreover, this incident seems to have happened a long time ago. The people in this town were terrified when they heard the word 'Niangniang'. They ran away in panic. It doesn't look like it was the first time at all."

Sang Yunqi nodded in agreement: "Anything else?"

Chu Xinglan groaned for a moment and guessed, "It seems a bit too arbitrary to conclude that the queen is the leader of the small fishing village incident now."

"Maybe there's something strange going on around here."

He suddenly thought of something and turned his head to look at Sang Yunqi: "Master, do you know if there are any other small sects nearby?"

What he originally wanted to ask was which sect was in charge of this area, but since the matter had already been handed over to the head of Cangqiong Mountain, it obviously belonged to Cangqiong Mountain.

He didn't want to believe that this was done by the people from Cangqiong Mountain, so he asked this question.

Sang Yunqi glanced at him, somewhat surprised at his train of thought. Although this matter might not be related to cultivators, Sang Yunqi still answered seriously.

"As far as I know, there are no more. However, before the Divine Will Sect disappeared from the world, it was active in this area."

At first, Chu Xinglan didn’t realize what kind of sect Shenyi Sect was, he just felt that it sounded familiar.

After recalling for a long time, I finally found this name from my memory.

They met in Yecheng on their way back with Song Ling to attend the ceremony.

Afterwards, Song Ling told them about the past. Although he had only met Lin Jiamu of Shenyi Sect a few times, he still had a deep impression of him.

He looked at Sang Yunqi in surprise: "Is this matter related to them? Or is it related to the black-robed man and the demon clan?"

You know, in the past six months, so many people have not found any trace of these people. If it weren’t for that tragic trip to the secret realm, some people would even doubt that it was just an illusion.

Before coming out this time, Chu Xinglan had never thought that he would meet these people. Generally, that was the treatment only given to the chosen ones, and he was not one of them.

And now that it might really happen to him, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Chu Xinglan, who was lost in his own thoughts, did not notice that after he asked this question, his master did not respond at all.

You also miss the opportunity to directly eliminate wrong answers.

A quarter of an hour later, the boss slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw the blue sky and white clouds, he was still in a trance for a moment.

"Is there blue sky and white clouds in the underworld?"

When he spoke, Chu Xinglan turned around and came closer to him.

"you're awake?"

The boss thought he was dead, and he was not afraid when he saw Chu Xinglan again.

He didn't care where the rocking chair came from. He lay down on it and rocked back and forth. He looked very relaxed. He was completely a different person from the person he was before he fainted.

Chu Xinglan couldn't bear to see him like this, and sneered, "The underworld? Didn't the Queen eat even people's souls? There is no reincarnation."
