Junior sister took first place again

The exit of the secret realm is still in that valley.

Wanqiu and his junior brother were both seriously injured and exhausted many times. After coming out, they did not delay for long. They said goodbye to Ning Jiasheng and others and asked the fellow disciples stationed at the door to send them back to the sect.

The remaining few people went back to Tianyuan Inn to stay together.

Part of Xizhou also borders Zhongzhou. After Ah Yu brought Yunshu out, she had already sent a message to her master, and just had to wait for her master to come and pick her up.

When the group was halfway there, Ye Chen and his brother caught up with them.

Xi disliked the two of them and snorted at them.

The two slowed down. Ye Chen smiled, bowed to Wen Xingzhou and said:

"Is Xianjun Wen going back to the inn? We're going the same way, let's go together."

Wen Xingzhou nodded and suddenly asked, "May I ask why Immortal Ye is looking for Dragon Blood Amber?"

Ning Jiasheng raised his eyes. Senior brother didn’t seem like the kind of person who would pry into other people’s privacy. Did something happen?

Ye Chen smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "I can't hide it from the Immortal Lord. Someone came with the ancestor's order and asked Master to save someone. We are here to find medicinal herbs."

As for the rest, Ye Chen didn't say anything more.

Wen Xingzhou nodded without asking any further questions, and the two sides tacitly agreed to stop talking.

Ye Chen turned to look at A Yu and said:

"Junior Brother Zhang, I told you about it in the secret realm earlier and asked Master Ruan to have tea with me. Don't forget."

Zhang Jiayu: "I dare not hide it from Uncle Ye. I have already told Master before. Master said that he will be waiting for you two in Xizhou at any time. The location will be decided by the uncles."

They both laughed, and Ye Chen said, "Okay, when I have some free time, I will definitely go to Xizhou first."

Seeing them talking happily, Ning Jiasheng suddenly remembered the gossip he had heard in the secret realm before.

They had been fighting, and Yun Shu hadn't said what it was yet.

Ning Jiasheng thought about it and turned his head to look at Yun Shu.

She also looked at Ning Jiasheng with tacit understanding, and excitedly gestured for her to look at the jade slip.

Ning Jiasheng looked at her, who lit up with energy despite her disability and strong will when she talked about gossip, and said with amusement:

Let’s not talk about this for now. Let’s get back to the inn and rest before sending it out to the team.

Yun Shu thought that Wanqiu, who loved to listen to gossip the most, was not here, so he nodded and suppressed the urge to share the gossip about his master.

Led by several Yuanying, they soon arrived at the inn.

Everyone was exhausted after the battle, so they went back to their rooms to rest without saying much.

Ning Jiasheng did not return to her room, but stayed with Wen Xingzhou.

She frowned and said, "Brother, what should we do with this forbidden technique on you? Can it be removed now? Will there be any danger?"

Wen Xingzhou didn't want his junior sister to see him lifting the forbidden technique, so he coaxed her:

"Don't worry, it's nothing serious. After fighting the demons for so long, Ah Sheng must be very tired. You should go back and rest first. Brother will be fine soon."

Ning Jiasheng said hoarsely, "Brother, don't lie to me. How could you be fine after being pressed from the Fusion Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage? If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be like this. I must stay here and watch over you."

Wen Xingzhou shook his head and said with a gentle smile:

"Ah Sheng, you're really overthinking it. It's not like you're forcing yourself to improve your cultivation. Brother, you're really fine. Your injuries haven't healed yet, so be good and go and rest first. Don't let me worry."

Seeing that he was determined to hide the truth from her, and worried that the longer he delayed, the more serious the consequences would be, Ning Jiasheng lowered her head and sobbed.

"Brother... Brother, you just lied to me... If it's really like what you said, why don't you just let me finish watching it and then go to rest? Otherwise, who can sleep?..."

As Ning Jiasheng spoke, he raised his hands and covered his face with his wide sleeves.

Wen Xingzhou suddenly became flustered and apologized hastily.

"Junior sister, don't cry. It's my fault! It's all my fault. I shouldn't have kept it from you. Ah Sheng, don't cry!"

Wen Xingzhou was so anxious that he was running around, raising and lowering his hand several times. No one had told him what to do if he made his junior sister cry.

"Junior sister? Ah Sheng?"

"Woooooooo..."

Wen Xingzhou sighed deeply and said helplessly:

"...It's all my brother's fault. Ah Sheng, don't cry. I'll grant you whatever you want."

"Really? Then please release the forbidden technique now, Senior Brother. I won't leave."

Ning Jiasheng hummed.

Wen Xingzhou: "...Okay."

Wen Xingzhou went to the bed and sat cross-legged.

Ning Jiasheng took off his sleeves, revealing a clean face.

Even though he knew she was pretending to cry, Wen Xingzhou couldn't do anything to her.

Wen Xingzhou sighed again, looked at her helplessly, closed his eyes and began to cast a spell.
