It was not until he left the dim cave and bathed in the sunlight that the dazed Jia Lan suddenly came back to his senses.

"Yiyi, what happened just now? I dreamed that I met a demon. Isn't it funny? Hahahaha!"

"It's not a dream, it's the demon clan."

"what?"

The dry smile came to an abrupt end. Jia Lan stared at Luo Yiyi in disbelief, then suddenly turned around to look at the dark cave behind him. His hair stood up and he couldn't help shivering.

"No, no, no, no! We have to go back and inform the elders immediately."

"But it was the elder who locked Sister Tess up here, wasn't it? Didn't he also send that Falsehood to guard her?"

"Yes, yes, since Master Xuwang is here, there shouldn't be any problem."

Touching his smooth head, he felt more and more depressed because so many things had happened today, and he just wanted to go back quickly.

"Yiyi, let's go back quickly. It's so late."

He carefully grabbed Luo Yiyi's sleeve and tried to pull it, but as expected, he failed. Tears welled up in his eyes again.

Luo Yiyi couldn't understand why he was crying again. He was so weak that he brought shame to their villain camp. But no matter how disgusted they were, they still had to do it.

"Dear Brother Lanlan, can you promise me one thing?"

Seeing Luo Yiyi's deliberately cute expression, Jia Lan's heart was alarmed and his tears were scared back.

"You, you, you, you, you speak first."

Luo Yiyi took a step closer, and Jia Lan couldn't help but take a step back. She took another step closer, and Jia Lan took another step back.

Unable to bear it any longer, Luo Yiyi suddenly pounced and knocked Jia Lan, who turned around to escape, to the ground. His whole face was pressed into the grass, and the prickly grass tips ruthlessly ravaged his tender face.

"Pfft! Pah, pah, pah!"

He raised his head, spat out the grass in his mouth, and felt the weight on his back, and Jia Lan screamed.

"Yiyi, what are you trying to do! Let me go! Help! Help!"

Luo Yi slapped the bald head in front of him, satisfied that the world was finally quiet.

She lowered her head, leaned close to Jialan's ear, and spoke to him in a sweet voice.

"Brother Jialan, I want you to promise me that you will not tell anyone about the loophole in the forbidden area before I rescue Sister Tess."

"No, I must tell the elders, otherwise something bad will happen."

"Nothing will happen. This loophole has been here for a long time. Hasn't anyone discovered it all this time?"

"That won't work either. What if someone like you accidentally enters the forbidden area?"

"So, you don't listen to me?"

"I will never give in to evil!"

Luo Yiyi's voice immediately changed to a sinister and threatening tone.

"If you don't listen to me, I will throw you into the Evil Suppression Tower and make you suffer the torment of having your heart ripped out and your bones dug out. You will neither be able to live nor die!"

"!"

Jia Lan was frightened. All kinds of extremely cruel torture methods that he had seen in his childhood kept emerging in his mind. He seemed to hear the shrill wails of countless people, and his whole body could not help but tremble.

Feeling the body trembling below, Luo Yiyi felt that the threatening lines used by villains in TV dramas that she had copied casually should have worked.

"What do you think? Do you promise me? Or... do you want to go into the Evil Suppression Tower and experience what it's like to live a life worse than death?"

"Promise! I promise you! Don't lock me up in the Evil Suppression Tower, wuwuwu..."

Hearing him crying again, Luo Yiyi climbed away from him irritably and stood aside waiting for the crybaby to calm down.

After a while, Jia Lan finally calmed down, slowly got up from the ground, and wiped the tears from his face with his sleeves.

Luo Yiyi looked at the man with his head down suspiciously and said, "Don't forget what you promised me. If you go back on your word, you will be struck by lightning, okay?"

Jia Lan's eyes were red, he turned away from Luo Yiyi, and nodded with a choked voice: "I know."

Luo Yiyi frowned, feeling weird and a little uncomfortable: "Let's go, let's go back."

The return journey was smoother than the outward journey, until the two of them climbed out of the hole and returned to the Sutra Repository. Everything seemed to be no different from when they came. Only the starry sky when they left the Sutra Repository showed that everything that happened today was not a dream.

Jia Lan, who had never spoken on the way, said his first words at this moment: "I'm going back."

"and many more!"

Luo Yiyi didn't know why she called out to the other person, and she didn't know what she wanted to say after she spoke. Instead, it was Jia Lan who spoke.

"Don't worry, I will keep my promise and won't tell anyone."

After leaving these words, Jia Lan turned and left without even looking at Luo Yiyi from beginning to end, like a lifeless puppet.

Luo Yiyi stared blankly at his figure disappearing before her eyes, and the strange feeling in her heart became more and more obvious. She couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was, but she knew it should be an unhappy one.

The unhappy Luo Yiyi even forgot about dinner and went straight back to the room through the teleportation array.

Naturally, after opening the door, I saw Xuanyuan Zhan meditating in his old seat.

Luo Yiyi walked over, lay on his crossed legs, and lowered her head, looking depressed.

Xuanyuan Zhan opened his eyes and lowered his head to look at the back of the child's head.

"What's the matter?"

After a long while, Luo Yiyi's muffled voice came out from her clothes.

"Zhanzhan, I miss Jianjian. Can you ask him to come and see me tomorrow?"

"it is good."

She should have been happy for achieving her goal, but Luo Yiyi found that she couldn't lift the corners of her mouth no matter what. She felt depressed and finally fell asleep in this position.

When she woke up from bed the next day, Luo Yiyi was full of energy again.

During lunch break, Xuanyuan Zhan lived up to expectations and asked He Jian to come over.

When Luo Yiyi returned to the room, she saw a familiar figure standing at the door. She cheered, rushed over happily, and threw herself into He Jian's arms.

"Jianjian, I miss you so much~"

He Jian felt flattered. He always thought that he was like a treasure chest to Luo Yiyi. He didn't expect that the child he raised actually cared about him.

"Yiyi, I miss you too. Are you living well here? Are you eating well? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Is anyone bullying you?"

He Jian let her go and checked her carefully from head to toe, up and down, front and back, and only felt relieved after confirming that Luo Yiyi was fine.

"I'm doing fine here. I don't feel uncomfortable. I beat away anyone who bullied me."

He Jian smiled and picked her up and walked into the house: "Yes, we are relieved to have Sword Master following you."

Inside the house, the table that usually only held study supplies was now filled with Luo Yiyi's favorite food. It smelled fragrant and was still steaming. It must have been right out of the pot that morning when He Jian used magic to preserve it and brought it here.

Looking at Luo Yiyi wolfing down the food, He Jian couldn't help but feel distressed.

"Everyone in Wuliang Sect is a vegetarian, right? Sword Master didn't even bring you some food. No wonder I felt like you looked thinner. How about I talk to Sword Master and let me take care of you starting tomorrow?"

Luo Yiyi's mouth was bulging with food, and she shook her head when she heard this.

On the one hand, it was precisely because everyone knew that Xuanyuan Zhan was the only one who would not spoil the child that he was sent to look after the child. He Jian’s idea would definitely not be realized.

On the other hand, Xuanyuan Zhan, who doesn't mind her own business, makes it easier for her to cause trouble. If it was Nanny He, it would be inconvenient for her to do anything in private, as he would want to stay by Luo Yiyi's side 24 hours a day.

Not knowing what the child was thinking, when Nanny He saw that Luo Yiyi refused to agree, she sighed with great melancholy.
