The female disciples who had bad intentions towards me started fighting among themselves

The pedestrians who were originally staying on both sides of the fjord all looked happy, and took advantage of the brief period of clear weather to cross the fjord.

The sutra says: "......"

This is just a coincidence.

Such clear weather will not last long. Generally speaking, two hours is the longest time.

What is even more coincidental and unexpected is that it only takes about one or two hours to reach Qiu Shui from here.

In other words, if he were to release Wen Youqing back to Qiu Shui's care, he would completely miss this brief opportunity to pass through the fjord and head to Nanposo Province.

If we wait any longer like this until the next time the fjord opens, the Pope’s millennial coronation ceremony will end early.

Jing Yan was caught in a dilemma.

But Wen Youqing was different. She soon discovered that the situation seemed to be subtly tilting in her direction.

This time, she has the advantage.

So, taking this opportunity, the girl sincerely swore to Jing Yan:

"Master, look, this is God's will. Please let me follow you. If you ask me to go west, I will never chase you away. I will follow your orders. Please, Master, take me with you!"

"QAQ"

One hundred and seventy-eight. It’s me, Wen Youqing!

be honest.

Jing Yan really hesitated.

He didn't expect that everything was such a coincidence. He unexpectedly found Wen Youqing at an unexpected time and in an unexpected place. Just when he wanted to drive Wen Youqing back to Qiu Shui, the thunder stopped unexpectedly.

Everything seemed to be choreographed by an invisible giant hand, holding everything firmly together.

Send Wen Youqing back to Qiu Shui first?

This is definitely not possible. The task that Elder Lingxu gave him was on a deadline, and there were less than ten days left before the Pope's celebration. At this point, there was only a week left. During this week, perhaps only now would the thunderbolt stop, and he would be able to take advantage of this time to cross the fjord.

Then let Wen Youqing go back by himself?

Jing Yan thought about it and felt that the girl seemed to be in her rebellious period at this moment and her obedience to him was not as strong as before - otherwise she would not have appeared in front of him at this moment.

What if she acted on her own and followed him alone to Nanposo Province? Wouldn't that be even more dangerous?

At this moment, the best choice is to keep Wen Youqing by my side.

Looking at the girl's expectant eyes, Jing Yan was conflicted for a moment.

"Master, Master~"

Wen Youqing rubbed against Jingyan like a spoiled child, and she secretly sniffed the scent of her master.

Hey, why does it still have the flavor of the ancestors, ugh?

"Wen Youqing."

Jing Yan called her and asked in confusion: "Is it really a coincidence that you are here at this time?"

Yes, everything was a little too coincidental, so coincidental that Jing Yan even suspected that Wen Youqing could know the time when the heavenly thunder would end.

But there is no rule to this. Even though countless people have tried to find the rule for the beginning and end of the thunder over thousands of years, they have all returned empty-handed. This is a place governed by the Heavenly Dao, and the only rule is to wait.

Waiting for an opportunity to enter Nanposo Province.

Wen Youqing blinked, revealing an innocent look.

"Of course it's a coincidence. Master, do you think I can predict the future? I'm obviously not smart."

The girl lowered her head and squeezed out two tears as if she was possessed by a dramatic spirit: "Master actually doubted me!"

The sutra says: "......"

Could it be that I am really worrying too much?

Considering what Wen Youqing usually did, Jing Yan felt that her simple and sincere emotions ran through her entire being - she seemed to be heartless.

It was really wrong for me to doubt Wen Youqing.

After slapping himself in his heart, Jing Yan smiled and treated the whole thing as an accident.

After seeing the doubt in his master's eyes fade away, a gleam of enlightenment flashed across Wen Youqing's lowered eyes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

Young master, still lost to the clever Wen Youqing.

Wen Youqing is the smartest disciple!

The girl was secretly delighted, knowing that everything was under her control. She had only made a slight calculation and was able to keep her master in the dark... Was she really a genius?

It seems like a waste of talent to have practiced fighting and killing in the previous life. Could it be that becoming a top strategist is the way out for me?

Wen Youqing thought secretly.

It all started three days ago.

Just when Jing Yan said that he was going to Nanposo Province, she had already begun to ponder her own plan.

In the memory of the previous life, the most grand event in Nanposo Province in recent days must be the Pope's ceremony - although Jingyan did not attend it in the previous life, Wen Youqing still heard about the news.

She recalled the recent end time of the Thunder Pool of the Fjord connecting Dongsheng Shenzhou and Nanposozhou, and quietly arranged the whole drama.

To be honest, her actions were somewhat inconsistent with her character. Wen Youqing originally thought that she would mess up and had prepared a backup plan, but she did not expect that her plan would succeed, and the backup plan was thus scrapped.

As for what the backup plan is?

Of course, I would cling to my master and beg him to take me with him, refusing to let go no matter what. What else could I do?

"Ok."

At this moment, Jing Yan seemed to have no other choice but to take Wen Youqing with him and keep a close watch on her, so he tapped the girl's head and said seriously:

"I can take you there."

"Great!"

"But you must listen to me. I am going to the Demon Cult on behalf of Qiu Shui. Any mistake will lead to disaster."

"Oh my god!"

"...No, who did you learn the interjection from?"

"Youqing is just expressing his feelings." Wen Youqing raised his eyebrows and said seriously: "Youqing knows, Youqing will be obedient. If Master tells me to drug me, I will drug me. If Master tells me to attack me, I will attack me. I will definitely follow Master's lead."

"I don't know why, but when I heard you say that, I started to panic."

Looking back and seeing the huge crowd preparing to cross the fjord, Jing Yan felt a little worried.

He always felt that if nothing unexpected happened, something unexpected would definitely happen.

But he couldn't just abandon Wen Youqing all alone... Hey, why did he take Wen Youqing in as his disciple in the first place?

It seems like it’s because she is the child of destiny?

Although this setting has been forgotten after spending a long time together, Jing Yan suddenly remembered it at this moment.

It's bad. Bringing the Child of Destiny to a place like the celebration of the Pope of a cult, which sounds like something bad could happen, is asking for trouble. If nothing happens, even his name can be written backwards.

But that's all we have for now.

Jing Yan rubbed Wen Youqing's black hair and pulled the reins of the Stepping Cloud Deer.

I hope nothing unexpected happens.

He thought with some worry.

"Come up."

"okay."

Wen Youqing's face lit up with joy, and he leaned into Jingyan's arms, feeling the warm body temperature of his master. It seemed that the cold he had endured in the treasure chest was worth it.

"...I asked you to come up so that you could sit properly in your seat."

Feeling the girl moving in his arms, Jingyan's head ached with anger.

He rubbed his temple.

"oh oh."

Wen Youqing nodded, and sat down next to Jing Yan with an air of calmness, as if nothing had happened, and said righteously:

"Master, let's go!"

"..."

Jing Yan felt worried for a while, and in order to avoid any accidents, he asked one last question.

"I told you before, what are you going to do after you go to Nanposo Province?"

"Go to bed early, get up early, eat on time, follow the Master's teachings and orders, and never get into trouble!"

The girl said confidently.

"I hope so...."

Jing Yan sighed softly, waved the reins of the Stepping Cloud Deer, and pulled the girl beside him towards him.

"The road ahead might be a little bumpy, so you can hold on to me."

"Oh."

Wen Youqing blinked, buried her head in her master's waist, and a slight blush appeared on her cheeks.

It turns out that my choice was not wrong!

It's absolutely the right thing to do to go out alone with the master... How is this different from a date? Anyone who sees this will be confused.

I'm sorry, little green tea, the guy who sneaked away this time...

It's me...

It’s Wen Youqing!

179. Crown

"How about this dress?"

The Pope tied the tie at her collar, and the purple long dress that showed her elegance and grace outlined her exquisite figure.

She tied up her long lavender hair, and in front of the mirror, she meticulously broke off a strand of hair that was scattered around her ear.

"It's okay. You look the same no matter what you wear."

Ji Siye did not look up. Instead, he sat on the chair, chewing snacks, his deep purple eyes seemed to have something on his mind.

"Always so mysterious. You can tell at first glance that he is the type who doesn't want to say things in a polite way and insists on being a riddle teller."

"Si Ye is right."

The Pope smiled.

"As the Pope of the Demonic Cult, how can you let others see your emotions? Whether you are happy, sad, or angry, you need to put on a poker face so that others can't see through your thoughts. Do you understand?"

"Why tell me?"

Ji Siye muttered softly.

She has a very strange relationship with the Pope.

Logically speaking, they should be in a superior-subordinate relationship, after all, the Pope's position is much higher than Sima Ming's. But the fact is, Ji Siye was raised by the Pope since childhood, and the relationship between the two is very strange. Although they are not as intimate as a real mother and daughter, sometimes they have to put on the feeling of a loving mother and a filial daughter.

Ji Siye was a little confused.

Why did the Pope adopt her?

It's obvious that she has no idea how to educate children and often gets herself into a state of panic.

She is definitely not a competent mother.

Why did the Pope adopt her? To spread the cult? For her bloodline?
