Chu Qianli had no idea what a Qiankun Chain was.
She had never even heard of it.
Jian Wuying decided to leave Jicheng that very night.
This matter could not be known by Yu Linglong. If she found out, she would surely kill Chu Qianli to cut off all future trouble.
No, she wasn't Chu Qianli anymore.
She was just an ordinary little girl, ordinary in appearance, ordinary in identity, ordinary in everything.
An ordinary, Xiao Yao.
"You still haven't told me your name?" Chu Qianli had called him "Young Master" all this time.
She didn't know who he was or his background, only that he was her savior.
At this moment, the two had already traveled far from Jicheng, to a place quite distant from Longteng.
Jian Wuying decided to take her back to Beiming Kingdom.
Because Yu Linglong had told him to return to Beiming first and wait for her.
As for Chu Qianli, Jian Wuying gave her a new identity: a little maid he had picked up.
But this maid showed no respect for her master at all.
Along the way, there was no semblance of etiquette.
"Young Master, your name?"
Jian Wuying pursed his lips, originally intending to ignore her. He hadn't expected that when this girl was determined about something, her tenacity was truly invincible.
Finally, unable to bear her pestering, he blurted out three words: "Ye Qingying."
"Ye Qingying... Hmm, it sounds nice."
Having obtained the answer she wanted, Chu Qianli smiled in satisfaction and lowered her head to eat her noodles obediently.
Ye Qingying was the name Jian Wuying used when staying by Yu Linglong's side.
The name Jian Wuying would bring him a lot of trouble.
In fact, no one had ever seen Jian Wuying's true face.
So upon returning to Beiming, he became Ye Qingying again.
"Eat quickly, so we can continue our journey." Ye Qingying also picked up his chopsticks, preparing to eat.
Unexpectedly, Chu Qianli beside him couldn't stay still. After eating for a while, she couldn't help but tilt her head and look at him: "Young Master, can you take off your mask and let me see your true face?"
"Shut up!"
"Young Master, I'll just take a peek."
"No!"
"I'll just take half a peek..."
... That night.
Ye Qingying was about to undress and rest when he heard someone walking on the roof above.
His expression darkened. He gripped his long sword and leaped out the window.
The long sword whistled as it pierced towards the person sitting on his roof.
But the faint moonlight illuminated the figure clearly.
Ye Qingying's long sword was abruptly pulled back. He glared at the little girl sitting on his roof and said angrily, "What are you doing here in the middle of the night instead of resting? Aren't you afraid I'll mistake you for a thief and kill you?"
Just now, if he hadn't seen clearly, she would have become a soul under his sword!
"I wanted to see your face." Chu Qianli, who had been lying on the roof planning to sneak a peek, now stood up and winked at him.
"Young Master, I discovered I know Qinggong too! Look, I'm actually very skilled!"
As Chu Qianli said this, she suddenly tapped her foot and leaped up from the roof.
She began to dart around on the rooftop.
Her steps were light and fast.
Although her Qinggong was not as good as Ye Qingying's, it was definitely not bad.
Yes, before she was injured by Yu Linglong and lost her memory, becoming Xiao Yao, her Qinggong was also very good.
Ye Qingying looked at the figure happily flitting about in the moonlight, his mood somewhat complex.
Her smile was pure, genuine, and simple.
Although her little face was no longer beautiful, she was just an ordinary girl, definitely not "beautiful."
But when she smiled, her large eyes were watery, bright, and clear, making her inexplicably beautiful.
Not long after, Chu Qianli returned with light, brisk steps.
"Young Master, look, am I very skilled?"
Her movements were masterful, as if she had learned the essence of his Qinggong.
Such speed was simply incredible!
