The lazy beauty dotes on her husband so much, she deserves to have a partner

The next day.

Bai Lian squatted down and stared at Qi Ji's sleeping face.

The soft morning light poured over half of his face. His elegant black eyelashes left a faint shadow under his eyes. His facial features had not yet fully grown and there was still some soft flesh on his face. With his eyes closed, he looked particularly well-behaved.

Bai Lian's eyes seemed particularly tender, but upon closer inspection, the owner of the eyes was distracted.

Bai Lian was thinking: Should I wake him up now? He shouldn't be grumpy when he wakes up, right?

Everyone else has woken up, so they can set off as long as they get ready. It wouldn’t be nice to let others wait for them, so let’s wake him up!

Just at this moment, Qi Ji's eyelashes moved, and he opened his black eyes, which were not yet fully awake. His pure black eyes were still full of sleepy starlight.

Their eyes met, and they both looked away tacitly.

Bai Lian said, "I just wanted to wake you up. Go wash up first, and we'll be leaving soon."

Qi Ji sat up, with his mind still a little confused, and nodded.

Looks a bit well behaved.

Bai Lian rubbed it gently with the fingers hanging by his side.

"I'll go down and wait for you."

After saying that, Bai Lian walked out and closed the door.

Qi Ji was stunned for a few seconds. He actually fell asleep last night?

He raised his hand and patted his chaotic cheek, and his mind finally became clear. He saw a towel and a basin of water on the table out of the corner of his eye.

There was a complex emotion in his eyes for a moment, and he stood up and picked up the towel.

As long as a cultivator reaches the foundation-building stage, he will not feel hungry. His appetite will gradually disappear as his cultivation level improves, and his lifespan will also be extended.

This is a very good thing in the eyes of many ordinary people.

They all hope that their children can become immortal cultivators, but not everyone is suitable for cultivation. Only those who are qualified can join the sect to practice.

Whether one has the qualifications is determined by whether one has spiritual roots in his body.

Some people have a single spiritual root, which gives them the best aptitude for cultivation, while those with two spiritual roots are second. The more spiritual roots they have, the more complex their physique is, and it will be more difficult for them to practice. As long as they have four or five spiritual roots, they basically have no chance of joining the immortal sect.

For example, Bai Lian has a single water spiritual root, excellent aptitude, and is extremely hardworking among practitioners. He is a well-deserved cultivation genius.

As for Qi Ji, although he had dual spiritual roots of fire and wood, he practiced very hard. Even though Elder Xu was not very concerned about his cultivation, he was an extremely outstanding person for being able to cultivate to the early stage of Golden Elixir at the age of eighteen.

After Bai Lian went downstairs, he only saw Elder Xu, while Elder Lin from Alchemy Peak was nowhere to be seen.

Feeling a little confused, Bai Lian asked his fellow apprentice beside him.

"Where is Elder Lin?"

"Elder Lin just received news that there is a demon causing trouble in Hengshui Town, and it is a cultivator in the middle stage of the Spirit Severing Realm. Since the situation is critical, he will go there first to eliminate the demon and then rush to meet us."

Bai Lian seemed to be thinking about something after listening to this.

The demon's cultivation level is higher than Elder Xu's, so there is no way Elder Xu would go.

If we were to call other elders of Tianyan Sect, by the time they got there, Hengshui Town might have been buried in the belly of the monster.

Although Elder Lin is the elder of Alchemy Peak, his cultivation is not weak either. He has always looked about thirty-five years old. He has now reached the great perfection of the Spirit Severing Stage, which is two steps higher than Elder Xu.

Elder Lin is undoubtedly the best candidate.

Hengshui Town is not too far from here, but it takes almost half a day for a cultivator to travel back and forth on a sword. Add in the need to kill monsters, and the earliest they can return is tomorrow.

Therefore, it was reasonable for Elder Lin to ask them to go first.

When Elder Xu saw that Qi Ji was not among the disciples, he wanted to ask Bai Lian where Qi Ji had gone.

Qi Ji happened to be walking down from upstairs. Seeing that everyone seemed to have gathered, he felt a little awkward for a moment. He lowered his head slightly and decided that he would not sleep so soundly next time.

"Master, and fellow brothers and sisters, I'm sorry, I'm late!"

In fact, the agreed departure time had not yet arrived, but they all arrived a little early.

Seeing Bai Lian's good attitude, some of the disciples were too embarrassed to say anything more, while others were moved by Qi Ji's attitude and said generously, "It's okay."

Elder Xu stared at him for a long time, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong with him, he withdrew his inquiring gaze.

"Well, remember to come earlier next time. It's embarrassing to make the brothers and sisters wait for you."

"Yes."

Qi Ji lowered his head and responded in a low voice. From a distance, he looked a little lonely and desolate.

Some people couldn't bear it, and while they were on their way, they quietly turned back and said to Qi Ji, "Brother, don't mind what your master said. We came down too early, and we don't mean to blame you."

Qi Ji pursed his lips slightly and raised a polite arc, "Well, thank you for your concern, senior brother and sister."

The senior sister who was talking to him blushed slightly. Oh my god! The junior brother is so well-behaved! He has fair skin and a healthy rosy lip. At this moment, he smiled slightly and looked particularly well-behaved.

"No, you're welcome!"

Bai Lian, who had been standing beside him and saw this scene, raised his eyebrows slightly.

Hiss! These kids in this world are really good at acting!

If Bai Lian hadn't seen a dark light flash in his eyes, he might have thought that he was hurt by his master's words.

Even though he knew that Qi Ji was pretending, Bai Lian, who was walking in front at first, still slowly slowed down his pace until Qi Ji was level with him.

When she raised her eyes again, she met Qi Ji's gaze which was stealing glances at her.

Bai Lian smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qi Ji turned his head away feeling a little uncomfortable, "It's okay, it's just that some sand blurred my eyes."

Bai Lian's smile deepened, and he asked in return, "Oh, do you want me to help you?"

Very good, he did it on purpose. Qi Ji gritted his teeth, and his soft cheeks looked slightly bulging. He spoke word by word: "No, no!"

The five senses of cultivators are more sensitive than those of ordinary people, so even though the two people spoke in low voices just now, they were still heard by everyone present.

Those disciples all had the same question in their minds: Could it be that the eldest brother is a joker?

Why didn't I notice it before? Is it because they are not as cute as the little junior brother?

Only one person quietly clenched his palms, his eyes were as dark and gloomy as the mouth of the abyss, and jealousy was about to become reality.

It turns out that Qi Ji secretly fell in love with Bai Lian behind his back. No, he wouldn't allow it!

He brought Qi Ji back to the sect and personally taught Qi Ji for so many years. How could Qi Ji fall in love with Bai Lian behind his back?

Those involved in the matter are often confused, while bystanders can see things more clearly. Qi Ji may not even be aware of his own inner thoughts.

But Elder Xu has lived for so many years, how could he not see the affection hidden in Qi Ji's eyes when he looked at Bai Lian?

Moreover, Bai Lian had the same idea.

How could Elder Xu let the two of them get their wish? The emotions surging wildly in his heart made Elder Xu's state of mind vaguely unstable. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, a hint of redness could be seen at the corners of his eyes.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and the redness at the corners of his eyes made him look a little more evil.
