"....." Yan Bian.
Mu Anxiao asked, "Why did you stop talking?"
Immediately, Yan Bian came back to her senses and said, "I didn't want to talk to you because you are not Gu An."
"Oh, I see."
"You see what?"
From Yan Bian's words, Mu Anxiao suddenly recalled the process of her and Feng Qishi meeting again. Thinking about the situation at that time, she also didn't want to tell Feng Qishi about her relationship with him.
She thought, Yan Bian's feelings must be the same as hers back then.
"It's nothing," she shook her head.
"...." Yan Bian smiled faintly and asked, "Are you insistent on going?"
"Yes, I must go."
"Then I'll accompany you, an extra bit of strength."
Heaven helps me!
Mu Anxiao was still angry that Shen Xian didn't find her a helper. Unexpectedly, a helper appeared halfway. She was both excited and thrilled.
However, thinking about her relationship with Yan Bian, she became hesitant: "This way, it might not be very good."
"How is it not good?"
"You are the housekeeper here, and I'm asking you to accompany me," Mu Anxiao touched the back of her head, "it might delay your time."
"It's okay, there aren't many situations like yours yesterday. Let's go."
"Then, alright," Mu Anxiao smiled.
Not far away.
The vine spirit didn't see clearly what Mu Anxiao and Yan Bian were doing or hear them clearly.
The residence.
Feng Qishi searched the entire kitchen but could not find any wall holes like the one in the woodshed that day.
Xiang Nang asked, "What are you doing?"
Hearing this, Feng Qishi raised his arm to wipe the sweat from his forehead, turned his head to look at the questioning Xiang Nang, and retorted, "Do you really not know how to break this barrier?"
"I don't know."
"....." Feng Qishi clicked his tongue and continued to bend down, searching for hope.
Xiang Nang said, "Even if you escape from here, Shen Xian will set up a barrier around the residence. It's useless."
Feng Qishi straightened up upon hearing this and asked, "What exactly does he want to do?"
"I don't know, but I know..." Xiang Nang hesitated for a moment and continued, "He misses the master very much. He even asked me if I would be happy if the master was resurrected."
"Why did he ask you that?"
"I don't know. At that time, I said the master had already reincarnated, and then he didn't say anything else."
"Is that so."
"I have a feeling he has something on his mind."
"Something on his mind?"
"Yes, when he said those words to me that day, he looked very preoccupied."
"....." Feng Qishi fell into thought at Xiang Nang's words.
Xiang Nang: "Why did you stop talking?"
"Mu the fool is going to find the monster. Logically speaking, if he wanted to marry Mu the fool, he would definitely send his subordinates to protect her. But," Feng Qishi recalled Shen Xian's reaction after Mu Anxiao said goodbye to him, and said, "he didn't."
"...."
"If it's... resurrection, resurrection." Feng Qishi repeated it several times, then recalled the vine spirit's sneaky appearance, his eyes widened, "No, it must be that the vine spirit came up with some stupid plan to try and kill Mu the fool."
"What do you mean?" Xiang Nang was startled.
Feng Qishi said, "It must be like this. The vine spirit came up with a plan to use Shen Xian's hand to kill Mu the fool, and then... bring Gu An back to life."
"Mu Anxiao is the master, how can there be talk of resurrection?"
Xiang Nang had always thought Mu Anxiao was about to awaken Shen Xian's conscience. Now, after hearing Feng Qishi's words, she realized Shen Xian's ambition was indeed great!
"Even if not to resurrect, he wants to awaken her memories and make Mu the fool lose the memories of this life. It must be like this."
"But I think that Xu Lan..."
"He is not Xu Lan, he is the vine spirit."
Originally, Feng Qishi didn't want to explain the vine spirit's identity to Xiang Nang, but the situation was critical, and he felt it necessary to do so.
Xiang Nang was stunned after hearing this, "Then what about Xu Lan?"
"He's been dead for a long time," Feng Qishi said, squatting down and continuing to search for the wall hole.
"....." Although Xiang Nang didn't know Xu Lan well, she had seen Xu Lan before.
Slightly lowering her eyelids, she couldn't help but recall Gu An's firm "I'm sorry" as she was dying.
However, at that time, she didn't know who Gu An was apologizing to.
Now that she thought about it, that person... must be Xu Lan.
Thinking this, her nose tip felt a little sore.
Feng Qishi didn't pay attention to Xiang Nang's reaction and continued to look for the wall hole.
Xiang Nang said, "Even the demons in the demon realm don't have such abilities. How can he, a mere monster..."
"How can he, a mere monster, have such powerful sorcery?" Feng Qishi responded, turning his head to look at Xiang Nang, "I know."
"You know what?"
"That guy wants to kill Mu the fool," Feng Qishi said and started searching frantically.
This time, Xiang Nang also began to worry about Mu Anxiao's safety, so she joined Feng Qishi in searching for the wall hole.
"If we find the wall hole, can we really get out?" she asked as she searched.
Feng Qishi said, "Yes. Last time in the woodshed, it was because of the wall hole that I could hear the sounds outside. I think that's the gap in the barrier."
"As long as there's a gap, can you break it?"
"Yes."
"That's good."
Demon Forest.
Yan Bian walked alongside Mu Anxiao.
The vine spirit thought Yan Bian was just talking to Mu Anxiao, but unexpectedly, she actually followed Mu Anxiao and didn't leave.
However, this was not good news for him.
"Damn it," he muttered, thinking that if he continued to follow them silently, the monster leader would see that Mu Anxiao was not alone, and then he would be in serious trouble.
So, he had a flash of inspiration and deliberately called out, "Mu Anxiao!"
Hearing this, Mu Anxiao's heart sank, and she quickened her pace.
Yan Bian asked as they walked, "What's wrong? He's calling you." As she spoke, she turned her head to look at the vine spirit rushing towards them.
Mu Anxiao whispered, "Hurry, that guy is just a burden."
"Oh," Yan Bian nodded and sped up with Mu Anxiao.
Seeing this, the vine spirit frowned and also quickened his pace.
A few minutes later.
Mu Anxiao and Yan Bian stopped at the same time.
Immediately after, Mu Anxiao, panting, turned around to look at the vine spirit who had stopped in front of her and asked, "What are you doing?"
"I..." The vine spirit's eyes rolled, and he said, "Shen Xian said it was too dangerous for you to be alone, so he asked me to follow you."
"You were sent by Shen Xian?"
However, although Mu Anxiao said this, she thought in her heart, "I don't believe you!"
The vine spirit smiled and said, "Yes!"
Yan Bian looked at the smile on the vine spirit's face and nudged Mu Anxiao with her elbow, saying, "He went to the demon tower yesterday."
"He is Shen Xian's... friend."
"Is that so," Yan Bian said, smiling at the vine spirit, "Hello."
"You are?"
Yan Bian said, "I am Gu An's friend."
"Right," Mu Anxiao nodded, "Yan Bian is her friend!"
The vine spirit smiled and said, "If she's her friend, then she's your friend."
