“Benefactor!” Xie Qiu shouted to Qin Yu on the tree with joy.
He couldn’t hide anymore. Qin Yu shook his head slightly, then jumped down from the towering tree and said to the person not far away, “Long time no see, Xie Qiu.”
“Yes, we haven’t seen each other for a long time. I miss you so much, benefactor!” Xie Qiu wiped the blood off his face and immediately jumped towards Qin Yu, but unfortunately he missed.
The emotion called ‘loss’ instantly swept over Xie Qiu, but he pursed his lips and quickly adjusted himself. He regained his mood and asked Qin Yu, who had subconsciously dodged to the side, with a smile, “Did the benefactor miss me?”
Faced with such a sincere and warm greeting, Qin Yu just sighed, then leaned over and stretched out a hand and said, “You should get up first before talking.”
It turned out that Xie Qiu not only missed just now, but also threw himself into the bushes and had a close contact with the ground. After Qin Yu said this, Xie Qiu’s face instantly turned red, he felt like digging a hole on the spot and burying himself in it.
Of course, he got up in the end. Although he was very happy to be pulled up from the ground by Qin Yu himself, Xie Qiu still blushed and whispered for himself, “It was just an accident. I am not like this on weekdays. I move lightly and I love cleanliness. Benefactor, you must believe me.”
Qin Yu took the grass leaves off his shoulders, shook them in front of him and then said in a low voice, “Well, I believe it!”
No, you don’t believe it! Xie Qiu looked at Qin Yu’s teasing smile, and shyly pinched a cleaning spell for himself. Because he was afraid that he would say something embarrassing, he hurriedly shook his head to change the subject.
“It’s strange, I didn’t see the giant wolf for a long time. I remember that he was always with my benefactor last time.” After saying that, he pretended to look around, as if he was searching.
How could Qin Yu not know the reason Xie Qiu suddenly mentioned Cang? He just didn’t want to see a beautiful peony suddenly turn into a fierce man-eating plant, so he followed his words and said, “Cang is in the critical period of transformation, I didn’t bring him in.”
“Oh, that’s it.” Xie Qiu’s eyes turned, and he said, “Then what is the purpose of the benefactor coming to the Nine-Layer Secret Realm?”
Qin Yu found a huge rock to sit down on, “To find something, what about you?”
“Me?” Xie Qiu pointed at himself. Qin Yu nodded, and then guessed, “Same as me?”
“No.” Xie Qiu waved his hand to deny it, and suddenly met Qin Yu’s eyes full of interest. He lowered his head and stared at the tip of his shoes with his breathing accelerated, and said embarrassedly, “I came here, one, because I want to become stronger, and two because…” At this point, he stopped and stared at Qin Yu with a pair of soul-stirring eyes.
“Because of what?” Qin Yu induced him to continue. Xie Qiu glanced at Qin Yu, then lowered his eyes again, his fingers fidgeting with the ribbon on his clothes, and said, “Because I want to exercise my courage. Didn’t you say last time that I was timid?”
Qin Yu’s heart was shocked, and he said, “If you want to exercise your courage, you don’t have to enter the secret realm. Do you know how dangerous the secret realm is? If you are not careful, you will never go back.”
“I know, in fact, I am mainly here to improve my strength. In addition, I am very sensitive to danger and I will not face the opponent head-on if I am not sure.” Xie Qiu bent down, with a flattering look on his face, “So, don’t worry, benefactor.”
Qin Yu glanced at him lightly and said, “Just be sensible.” Xie Qiu immediately smiled, “I am the most sensible. By the way, benefactor, do you want to eat?”
Eat? Qin Yu didn’t know how Xie Qiu’s brain circuit suddenly jumped to this, but his answer was very brief and straightforward, “I have been fasting.” The implication was that he didn’t eat.
“Eat, please, benefactor, let me show you my skills…”
“Okay, okay, I’ll eat it, don’t turn around anymore.” Qin Yu couldn’t stand Xie Qiu turning around him while speaking, and he compromised in less than a moment.
“I am very confident in my skills, I promise that the benefactor will not be disappointed.” After getting the answer he wanted, Xie Qiu immediately plunged into the woods to find food like a happy little deer. Qin Yu was not idle either. He walked to the place where Xie Qiu had fought with others before, stopped and watched quietly for a while, then came to the body that had already stiffened, swept across the lower body of the other party that showed its original form and gently waved his hand, turning it into dust.
Finally, Qin Yu returned to his original position, lying on the boulder with his hands under his head, looking at the blue sky above his head, his eyes were deep. Through observation of the scene and the body, Qin Yu found that Xie Qiu’s strength was stronger than he thought, and it seemed that there was a suspicious case of…deliberate concealment.
But why would he hide his strength? Qin Yu closed his eyes and felt the breeze blowing across his face, and fell into deep thought. After an unknown amount of time, he heard a pleasant laugh in his ears, “I’m back!”
Qin Yu stood up and looked, only to see Xie Qiu holding a rabbit and smiling at him. Qin Yu raised his eyebrows, “It seems that your courage has improved a lot.”
In the past, he was scared of rabbits and was afraid of being eaten by them. Now, looking at his posture of making a fire, it seems that the situation has changed.
Xie Qiu smiled shyly, “Since I found that rabbits are delicious, I am no longer afraid of them.” Qin Yu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
In less than a moment, the rabbit had been neatly peeled by Xie Qiu and put on the fire to roast. After a while, the rabbit was roasted, and Xie Qiu handed it to Qin Yu, “Try it quickly.”
When it comes to eating, even the cultivation world can’t compare with the modern world. Qin Yu looked at the rabbit meat in his hand. He had prepared for its monotonous taste. As a result, as soon as he took a bite, he was stunned on the spot, with a bright look of surprise in his eyes.
Seeing this, Xie Qiu smiled proudly, and then, like a little peacock eager to show off, he kept asking Qin Yu, “How is it, is it delicious, are you shocked?”
After swallowing it with mixed feelings, Qin Yu immediately said to Xie Qiu, “You are right, it is indeed delicious. How did you do it?”
“Is it difficult? I saw someone else do it a few days ago and wrote it down. Unfortunately, there is a lack of seasoning in the secret realm, otherwise I can make it more delicious.”
When he heard this, Qin Yu’s pupils constricted, similar taste, similar answer, could it be him? Qin Yu asked himself in his heart.
But what about the pair of eyes he saw in another person that were exactly the same as the one in his dream, the eyes that made him feel so kind and attached? Qin Yu was confused for a while.
“Benefactor, why don’t you eat it?” Xie Qiu saw that Qin Yu stopped moving after taking a bite, and was curious.
“I’m thinking about something.”
Xie Qiu approached with great interest, “What are you thinking about?”
“Nothing.” Qin Yu turned his head to avoid him. Xie Qiu frowned slightly at his evasive attitude, then relaxed, raised her red lips, and whispered softly, “Benefactor, are you thinking about how to be with me? How to go to paradise with me?”
Qin Yu’s body froze, he was shocked by Xie Qiu’s straightforwardness and boldness. But the other party seemed to not be afraid of chaos in the world, and pulled down the red clothes to reveal the white and round shoulders, and asked him again with a breath like an orchid, “Am I right?”
Qin Yu chuckled, pulled up his clothes and immediately pulled the distance between the two, saying, “No, you think too much.” Before things are confirmed, Qin Yu does not intend to act rashly. He is determined to stay away from Xie Qiu first, “In fact, you can just call me Han Rong, don’t keep calling me benefactor.”
Xie Qiu disagreed, “But I like to call you benefactor.” After saying that, as if it was not enough, he called a few more times, “Benefactor, benefactor…”
Qin Yu held his forehead with his hand. How come he didn’t find out last time that Xie Qiu had a side that loved to go against him. In fact, because Xie Qiu was outspoken last time and kept chasing him to say that he would pledge himself to him, Qin Yu already had some shadows for the word ‘benefactor’. Now with today’s experience, his shadow is even bigger.
“Okay, you can call me whatever you want, but…”
“But you can’t accept my pledge of love, right?” Xie Qiu completed Qin Yu’s words.
Qin Yu nodded. Although it was hard to say what would happen in the future, this was indeed his plan for now.
“Humph!” Xie Qiu snorted angrily, “Tell me, do you already have someone you like, so you don’t like me?”
Without waiting for Qin Yu to answer, he asked Qin Yu a series of questions, “Who is he? What’s his name? Is he as pretty as me? Will he roast a rabbit for you like I do?”
It is not difficult to find from his words that Xie Qiu has already taken the fact that Qin Yu has someone he likes as a fact.
“I…” Qin Yu wanted to say something, but Xie Qiu interrupted him directly, “I have one last question, what are you doing in this forest? I don’t think you can find what you want here!”
Qin Yu touched the tip of his nose and said, “Waiting for someone.”
Hearing this, Xie Qiu covered his mouth and staggered back a step, then pointed at Qin Yu with a look of shame and anger, “Scumbag, it turns out you are not alone!” After that, he glared at Qin Yu, then waved his sleeves and left. From behind, he looked like a burning flame at this moment.
Qin Yu just exhaled, and then looked up and found that the person who had just left had returned, “What’s wrong?” He asked him with a pursed lip.
Xie Qiu looked at Qin Yu’s handsome face and sneered again, then took the rabbit meat in his hand, and said as he walked forward, “Scumbags don’t deserve to eat my roasted rabbit meat.”
Qin Yu smiled and shook his head, really a child’s mind. However, he looked at the sun in the sky and thought, why hasn’t Jun Shi come out yet?
Forget it, Qin Yu decided to lie on the stone and wait for a while. If Jun Shi didn’t show up by then, he would go back to look for him. Qin Yu didn’t expect that while he waited for Jun Shi, that another person would come first.
In order to win back Qin Yu and hold on to his golden thigh again, Su Zian also entered the Nine-Layer Secret Realm. But he didn’t know where Qin Yu was exactly, so he could only search like a headless fly and naturally he couldn’t avoid getting hurt during the process. After all, his current cultivation was really weak, he could only touch the threshold set for entering the secret realm.
Just when Su Zian was beaten by the vines with spiritual consciousness again, and his nose and face were swollen, and he wanted to go home in anger, his luck came. He saw Qin Yu, he saw his master from his previous life.
At this moment, the other party was lying on a smooth boulder, and it seemed that he was resting with his eyes closed. The afternoon sun shone on him, making him look noble and handsome.
Su Zian cried with joy, wishing he could reach him immediately, but unfortunately he was not strong enough, and the teleportation spell was gone, so he could only walk over step by step with his tired legs. He was about to reach his destination.
Suddenly, “Who are you? What are you doing?” A voice came from behind Su Zian, questioning him harshly, and Su Zian was startled.
Qin Yu also noticed the movement behind him at this time.
