525 You’re Coming With Me?
“Your loyal subordinate has a younger sister who behaves like this. This subordinate must be having a hard time.” An Jiuyue chuckled.
She had heard what Ye Chengzong said to Ye Chenglin yesterday.
Ye Chengzong must have felt very helpless, right?
As the captain, he should be living like a fish in water at Huayan Peak. However, he was implicated by his sister, Ye Chenglin.
An Jiuyue understood that this situation was not easy to resolve. One party was his loyal and protective subordinate, while the other was an infatuated subordinate who wished her dreams could come true.
And they were siblings! It was indeed quite challenging, especially since they were at Huayan Peak, where they were only short of using demonic beasts as labor to withstand the invading demonic beasts.
…
After some time, Yan Nuo and Yan Jin returned. Meanwhile, Ye Chenglin, despite all her reluctance to leave, had no choice but to go to the Spirit Severing Cliff.
When An Jiuyue walked out of the tent with Qian Jiyun, she saw Ye Chenglin glaring at her viciously before turning around and leaving quickly.
An Jiuyue looked up at Qian Jiyun and asked, “Does she hate me now?”
“Don’t worry about it. I’ll accompany you to the Building of Years.”
Qian Jiyun saw the look in Ye Chenglin’s eyes, but he did not care.
In his opinion, after Ye Chenglin had gone to the Spirit Severing Cliff, she would either return as a corpse or with her Original Soul energy drained, becoming an ordinary person and being sent back to Daqing Kingdom.
Since she was no longer a threat, why would he care?
“You’re coming with me?”
An Jiuyue was surprised and raised her eyebrows at him.
She remembered him saying last night that he would check on the camp situation today and reorganize some personnel.
Why was he suddenly interested in accompanying her to the Building of Years?
“Actually, there’s no need for you to come. Yan Nuo or Yan Jin can accompany me.”
She found herself rather useless. She had required someone to accompany her since arriving at Huayan Peak. It was a total waste of people’s time.
But it was alright. This would most likely only last a few more days. She would not need anyone to accompany her and would be able to handle herself once she had read more and understood Huayan Peak better.
After all, she had Warrior-Servant One and Warrior-Servant Two by her side.
Zheng’er and Rong’er could not come out of the space for the time being, so they did not have to accompany them all the time. They could protect her occasionally.
“I happen to be going to the Building of Years,” the man said as he looked at her.
An Jiuyue remained silent.
How can there be so many coincidences? Is he fooling me like a child?
“Alright, let’s go.”
Since he wants to accompany me, so be it. Rejecting him again would be too unreasonable.
“Wait for me! I’ll go too!”
They heard a familiar voice just as they were about to leave for the Building of Years. An Jiuyue frowned instinctively.
Sure enough, when she turned around and looked in the direction of the voice, she saw Gong Cheng, his face painted colorfully, running towards them.
“Pfft!”
It was not her fault for laughing! Gong Cheng’s face made people laugh too heartily.
When she saw him last night, it was dark, and he was covered in mud. She could not see him clearly, so she did not notice it.
However, it was daytime now. Gong Cheng’s face was like this, but he did not even cover it with a cloth.
