Chu Ran's cheeks felt hot, and he quickly stretched out his hand to pinch the ticklish flesh on his waist, pinched it hard, and said with a smile like a flower: "Is it still sweet now?"
Mo Jue's eyes flashed, and the crooked smile at the corner of his mouth deepened.
Seeing this, Chu Ran's heart went off alarm bells.
"Have you ever heard of the saying that beating means scolding means... ugh!"
Chu Ran grabbed a handful of preserves and stuffed them into his mouth.
His little face turned red, and there was a hint of anger between his brows: "Shut up! Eat your food!"
In the next three days, Mo Jue visited the house every day. If he hadn't taken her reputation into consideration, he would have even wanted to stay in Zhaiyue Pavilion.
Chu Ran was a little uncomfortable at first, but quickly adapted to his presence.
Even with him by your side, you can still concentrate on refining elixirs.
The night before departure, Chu Ran gave Mo Jue an injection and then handed him a bottle of elixir.
"Same as before, take it every day, it can temporarily suppress your toxicity and prevent it from getting worse."
Mo Jue didn't answer it and stretched out his hand to push the medicine bottle back.
"No need for this."
"Huh?" Chu Ran was a little shocked, "Why not?"
He chuckled: "I have decided to go with you."
After finally waiting for her to wake up, how could he be willing to separate from her?
"Don't worry, I won't disturb your training..."
"Knock knock knock"
A rapid knock on the door interrupted his words.
Chu Ran released his spiritual consciousness: "It's Qingmu."
Mo Jue's eyebrows beat hard. At this time, Qingmu would never have the guts to disturb them unless something big happened!
He waved his hand and fired out a burst of spiritual power, swinging the door open.
"Master, Miss Chu." Qingmu quickly saluted after entering the room.
"What's the matter?" Mo Jue asked coldly.
He glanced at Chu Ran subconsciously.
"I'll go out first, and you guys can chat slowly." Chu Ran was about to make room for them, but a big hand grabbed his wrist.
"There is nothing about this king that you cannot listen to."
The words fell loudly, and Chu Ran's heart trembled. A surge of sweetness came over her, and she returned to Mo Jue and stood side by side with him.
"Tell me, what's going on?" Mo Jue spoke again.
Qingmu quickly suppressed the shock in his heart and reported: "My subordinates found out that someone had seen that person in Xiling City."
Chu Ran clearly felt that Mo Jue's aura was disturbed.
"Is the news true?" he asked, his voice a little more urgent than usual.
Aoki nodded heavily: "It's absolutely true!"
Mo Jue held her hand unconsciously and tightened. He lowered his eyes and looked at her but hesitated to speak.
Chu Ran seemed to have a mental connection with him and instantly guessed his thoughts.
She whispered: "Go ahead and do what you want to do, don't worry about me."
With that said, she put the bottle of elixir into his hand, "Don't forget to take it."
Mo Jue clasped the bottle tightly, suddenly released his big hand holding her wrist, and hugged her into his arms.
"When I find out about this matter, I will go find you." He pressed Chu Ran's ear, his voice hoarse.
Chu Ran relaxed her body, leaned into his arms, and let the cold fragrance that belonged to him surround her.
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
Aoki hurriedly lowered his head, his breath condensed to the extreme, wishing that he was just a ball of air at this moment.
Mo Jue hugged her for a while before forcing herself to let go.
He looked deeply at Chu Ran, as if he wanted to carve her into his bones.
Chu Ran smiled slightly and said, "Go."
He turned around neatly and strode away.
"My subordinate, please retire." Aoki handed over his hand, then chased him and disappeared into the night.
It wasn't until there was no one in sight that the smile on Chu Ran's face gradually faded away, and he murmured with a complicated expression: "Who could that be?"
A sleepless night.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Chu Ran received a message from Zhou Yuxue.
"Chu Ranran, we have arrived and are waiting for you."
"I'll be there soon."
She left the main house, set up a defensive circle outside Zhaiyue Pavilion, and said a few words to Mercury before saying goodbye to her and Li Xiuniang's mother and son.
Those who avoided the general's palace jumped over the high wall.
"Chu Ranran's side~"
Zhou Yuxue stood at the gate of the city, waving to her excitedly from a distance.
Cang Wanyan, Zhou Qingsu, and Chen Xiaosheng were all there.
Chu Ran walked over quickly.
"Huh? Why are you the only one?" Zhou Yuxue looked left and right, but didn't see the guy who should have been there, "Where is the regent? He's not with you?"
Chu Ran's eyes dimmed for a moment, then returned to normal in an instant: "He has something to do and he can't come."
"Hey, if he doesn't come, then I won't be afraid anymore!" Zhou Yuxue came to her side and took her arm affectionately.
"Brother, it's time to go."
Zhou Qingsu took out four runes.
The golden light of the talisman flickered, and a huge golden paper eagle flew out from the talisman paper!
They were entrenched above the four people, their wings flapping, creating hurricanes.
"This is my first time seeing the legendary rune beast!" Chen Xiaosheng looked up at the paper eagle, filled with wonder.
"It's just for traveling. It doesn't have any combat power. Compared with the rune beasts drawn by my father, it is much weaker." Zhou Yuxue muttered.
"Does a person who has never succeeded even once have the right to say such a thing?" Zhou Qingsu gave her a cold look.
He doesn't care about other things, but when it comes to runes, he is serious!
Zhou Yuxue was instantly angry and said, "Chu Ranran, let's go and ignore him."
She pulled Chu Ran and flew to the paper eagle.
"Let's go, Little Eagle!"
"Wait." A slightly familiar voice suddenly came.
A white light flashed before his eyes, and the next moment, a white shadow appeared on the back of the paper eagle beside Chu Ran.
The young man has a cute smile on his face with red lips and white teeth, and the cinnabar on his eyebrows is red, but the most eye-catching thing is his two black panda eyes.
"You are so injured..." Chu Ran looked a little strange.
Yao Hengyu's smile froze and he said hurriedly: "This was not a result of being beaten! It was an accidental injury from me!"
Chu Ran raised his eyebrows, doesn't this guy know what this place is undoubtedly three hundred taels?
If she was just suspicious before, now she dares to conclude that this injury has nothing to do with Mo Jue.
But she did not expose the other party, and said calmly: "The paper eagle under the feet of the young sect leader already has an owner, please raise your feet."
Yao Hengyu did not move.
"Wherever you are going, I will go too!"
Since Brother Jue is not in the house, he has no need to stay, so he might as well follow them.
Yao Hengyu has not forgotten the loss he suffered at the hands of Chu Ran last time. This time he wants to get back on his feet no matter what, and expose the fact that she is a liar!
Chu Ran looked confused and didn't quite understand what he meant by the fighting spirit on his face.
Zhou Yuxue put her hands on her hips, "Who wants you to go? Who are you? Do we know each other well?"
"Go down!" Cang Wanyan shouted coldly.
"If you have nothing wrong with you, why don't you dare to let me go? Are you afraid that I will reveal your true identity...ah!" The paper eagle under your feet suddenly exploded and turned into countless white confetti.
Yao Hengyu immediately fell downwards. Fortunately, he used his spiritual power in time to borrow strength in the air, thus avoiding the tragic end of falling and eating shit.
"Who! Who did this...Hey! Why are you leaving!" He stared dumbfounded as the three paper eagles flapped their wings and quickly flew over his head.
They just left him and ran away?
"Hmph! The more you don't let me go, the more I'm going to go!" Yao Hengyu snorted coldly, immediately covered his feet with spiritual power, and rushed out like a cannonball.
