Chapter 857: Care About Her A Lot
Ling Chuxi was not worried though. The Sacred Realm of Sects was still abundant in spiritual qi, and the sea of flowers was the place with the strongest spiritual qi in the entire Golden Pill Sect. It wouldn’t take long for the sea of flowers to return to its original form.
The sudden collapse of the array shook the ground so badly that it had the rest of the Golden Pill Sect on alert. Since Ling Chuxi had been attacked, everyone in the sect had increased their vigilance, so as soon as they heard the commotion, Su Yizhi, Su Yanhua, Su Xiu’er, and the other members of the Su family rushed over.
Seeing the scene in front of them, everyone was shocked. Su Yizhi quickly ordered the Su family to stop and be careful of their surroundings, then cautiously walked towards the depths of the sea of flowers with Su Yizhen. Not long after they had entered the sea of flowers, Ling Yichen and the others rushed over, looking worried.
“Yichen, what’s the matter?” Su Yizhi asked ,seeing Ling Yichen’s anxious expression.
“Chuxi is not in her room,” Ling Yichen said briefly as he made his way into the depths of the sea of flowers.
“What?!” Su Yizhi’s heart clenched. Had something happened to Chuxi again? But the current defense mechanism of the Golden Pill Sect was so formidable that even Su Yizhi himself could be incapacitated by it… Who could have snuck in so silently?
Su Yizhi didn’t have time to think about it, and immediately followed Ling Yichen into the sea of flowers. Right now, he couldn’t care less about his own safety—Ling Chuxi’s safety was the top priority.
Seeing Su Yizhi and the others approaching from afar, Huangfu Qingjue squeezed Ling Chuxi’s hand gently and murmured, “They’re here. I’ll leave first.”
“Wait…” Ling Chuxi knew that Huangfu Qingjue didn’t want to meet them, but she was reluctant to part with him after such a short time together. She had no idea how to tell him though.
“I will find you in a bit, and tell you all that you want to know.” Huangfu Qingjue smiled at her anxious expression, then leaned down and gently kissed her forehead.
“I’ll wait for you then.” Ling Chuxi nodded slowly, savoring the warmth on her forehead, affection blooming in her heart. Only after Huangfu Qingjue’s figure disappeared did Ling Chuxi retract her gaze.
At that moment, Su Yizhi and the rest reached Ling Chuxi. As soon as they saw that she was unharmed, they were relieved.
“Chuxi! Are you okay?!” The anxiety on Ling Yichen’s face was replaced with joy as he strode towards her.
“I’m fine, why are you all here?” Ling Chuxi felt bad seeing how worried they all were.
Duan Xiaomo was also there, having been brought over by Duan Feiyu. When the little boy saw Ling Chuxi, he didn’t say a word, but just stood quietly beside her as usual.
However, Duan Feiyu knew that when Duan Xiaomo found out that Ling Chuxi was not in her room, his heartbeat became twice as fast. However, as soon as he saw Ling Chuxi, his heartbeat immediately returned to normal.
‘It seems that my precious little brother really cares about her a lot. I’m not sure if he would be as anxious if something happened to me though…’ Duan Feiyu thought enviously.
“Chuxi, what happened?” Su Yizhi asked quickly.
“It’s nothing. I had a sudden inspiration and came here to cultivate, but I unexpectedly found an array and decided to take a look out of curiosity. Who would have guessed that the array would collapse after that?” Ling Chuxi lied smoothly, having planned out her excuse beforehand. Some things still had to be kept a secret, especially the incident with the Gongxi Clan, since she was still unclear about it. If she chose to tell the others, it would only foster fear in everyone.
