33: Did you bring Luo Ying here?
"Jade Moon Sect..."
Looking at the Sect shrouded in Immortal Qi before her, Di Luoying murmured.
It had been a long time since she last came here.
Di Luoying lightly stroked the slightly trembling long sword in her hand.
Her Sword Heart was telling her that she would find the answer she wanted by coming to the Jade Moon Sect this time.
In this world, only the Sword Heart would not deceive her.
Originally, he was too, it was just... Di Luoying bit her lip, and on her beautiful face of ice and jade, several strands of inexplicable meaning emerged.
She gently shook her head, which finally turned into a soft sigh.
"Revered Master! You're here. I've been waiting for you here since I received your message."
Yun Qingci flew out from the Jade Moon Sect's Sect gate.
When she saw her Revered Master's figure, she approached her with some excitement.
Their actions also caused the Cultivators of the Jade Moon Sect around them to look back frequently.
"My god, that... that's the Sword Immortal of the Liyue Sword Sect!"
"It really is. I'm not mistaken, am I? I heard that Sword Immortal hasn't appeared for a long time."
"Wuwu, the Sword Immortal is so beautiful. Standing there, she's like a Divine Sword piercing through heaven and earth. So cool!"
Many Disciples of the Jade Moon Sect were looking at Di Luoying with great excitement.
After all... that was the Sword Immortal... "Mm... let's go in. I haven't been to this Jade Moon Sect for a long time either."
Di Luoying nodded to Yun Qingci.
She didn't ask whether Qing Ci's search during this period had yielded an answer.
In her view, her Sword Heart had not become unpure.
Instead, in a sense, it was purer.
It was a Sword Heart that held a sword for only one person.
Yun Qingci also nodded obediently after hearing this.
Regarding the pursuit of why her Revered Master's Sword Heart had a problem, she was now a bit embarrassed to speak.
After all, she had solemnly promised her Revered Master that she would definitely find the answer.
As a result, she was first saved by Gu Yuan in the Immortal Burial Cave, and then saved by his Revered Master, Empress Qiongyue.
Emmmmm, this made Yun Qingci feel very embarrassed.
Not to mention she had been staying in the Jade Moon Sect all this time, just eating and drinking every day.
Thinking about it now, she was really too lax.
"Revered Master, come with me. I'm very familiar with the Jade Moon Sect now. Oh, right, I also want to take you to meet someone—the one I told you about who saved me, Gu Yuan."
Di Luoying walked beside Yun Qingci, looking at her usually serious Disciple, who was now inadvertently revealing a bit of a young girl's demeanor.
For a moment, she was also somewhat surprised.
She didn't expect that Qing Ci had changed quite a bit during her time out.
And... Gu Yuan...?
Di Luoying muttered the name in her heart.
For some reason, her Sword Heart told her that she wanted to meet this person named Gu Yuan.
"In that case, take this Revered Master there. Afterwards, this Revered Master still needs to meet Yingxue."
Di Luoying said softly. Since she had come to the Jade Moon Sect this time, she must see Yingxue.
Speaking of which, the two had not seen each other for a long time.
Meeting again now, she was already the head of a Sect.
And she herself had also become the Sword Immortal of the Liyue Sword Sect.
Yun Qingci nodded upon hearing this, then seemed to remember something. After a light cough, she said:
"Revered Master, he'll probably be very excited to see you. If he offends you in any way, please don't get Life Qi."
Oh?
Di Luoying glanced at her with some surprise.
This was the first time she had heard her serious Disciple speak up for someone else.
And... it was a man.
Seeing her Revered Master's surprised eyes, Yun Qingci's face turned red, and she said in a low voice:
"It's just that that guy has been taking good care of me lately, so I'm speaking up for him. Revered Master, don't overthink it!"
The corners of Di Luoying's mouth curled up slightly.
It seemed that Qing Ci's experience coming out this time wasn't without gain.
In that case, she was even more interested in that man named Gu Yuan.
Yun Qingci led Di Luoying into the Jade Moon Sect, attracting the excited gazes of many Disciples along the way.
Setting those aside for now, Yun Qingci pulled Di Luoying's sleeve and pointed ahead:
"There, he's Gu Yuan. Hehe, I haven't told him you're arriving today, Revered Master. Come, let's give him a surprise!"
A surprise... Di Luoying shook her head somewhat helplessly.
Why did it feel like her Disciple's personality had changed so much after one trip out?
If it were in the past, Qing Ci would never have been able to say such a thing.
Di Luoying looked in the direction of her finger and saw a man leaning against the trunk of a giant Wutong Tree ahead.
The warm sunlight fell on him, making him look very quiet and gentle.
However, the moment Di Luoying saw that figure, her expression instantly froze.
This figure... At the same time, Di Luoying's Sword Heart was also trembling incessantly.
The long sword in her hand was even shaking slightly.
Who... is he...?
Di Luoying's beautiful eyes blinked slightly. At this moment, she seemed to want to carve that figure into her eyes.
"Hey! Gu Yuan, look who's here!?"
Yun Qingci crept up to Gu Yuan's side and then suddenly spoke.
Hmm...?
Gu Yuan was originally resting with his eyes closed under this Wutong Tree.
Well, mainly thinking about how to face the upcoming Luoying.
It seemed like he should perhaps get some items from the System Mall?
But it should be fine, right? Could he be overthinking it?
One should know that when performing a Rescue Mission, the abilities granted by the System allowed him to enter an invincible state.
And prevented anyone from checking his information.
Gu Yuan felt that in this regard, he should trust the System a bit more.
Thinking of this, Gu Yuan's heart also relaxed slightly.
And it was at this moment that he suddenly heard Qing Ci's voice.
When he turned to look, he found this Little Noodle looking at him with a smile.
What's wrong, are you looking to be fed?
Gu Yuan looked at the swaying noodle on top of her head and was about to say something.
However, when his eyes saw that familiar figure not far away, Gu Yuan was stunned on the spot.
No, what's the situation here?
Luoying... Why, why is she here!?
No, no, he already knew she was coming.
But, who can tell me why she's here today?
Gu Yuan was completely stunned.
He had originally thought he still had a few days to prepare his response.
As a result, who would have thought that in the time he spent resting with his eyes closed, this Little Noodle would bring Luoying over?
And when his eyes met Di Luoying's.
Gu Yuan subconsciously averted his gaze.
And this action of his, in Di Luoying's eyes, seemed to confirm something.
