Spirit Star River, Jiangshou Star.
Lu An left for nearly half an hour before he returned and once again came to Jiang Xiao's boudoir. Seeing Lu An come back so quickly, Jiang Xiao felt relieved in her heart, and even her whole body relaxed a little … as if Lu An was not the one who threatened her, as if Lu An did not have her weakness in his hands.
Of course, Jiang Xiao naturally knew that Lu An had her weakness in his hands. Only a ghost would believe that he had destroyed the Hidden Spirit Stone. However, after eight days, especially when Lu An did not come three days ago, Jiang Xiao's attitude towards Lu An gradually changed.
Eight days was enough for Jiang Xiao to calm down, enough for her to think about everything. In her eyes, Chu Xing not only did not come to harass her, but also did not appear at the right time. This showed that this person did not have much thoughts about her and just wanted revenge. Moreover, the two exchanges with Chu Xing were very simple and quick, without beating around the bush. It was much easier to be with such a direct person.
"How is it?" Jiang Xiao asked, "Do you understand?"
"En." Without the other party's signal, Lu An sat down, looked at Jiang Xiao and said, "Since there is no better way, I will choose the first one, but I have conditions."
Before hearing the last sentence, Jiang Xiao already showed a smile, because she could not think of a better way for eight days, and Chu Xing also could not think of it. However, when she heard the conditions, she could not help but smile and frown. She hated it when others talked to her about conditions, but this person was Chu Xing, and she had no way to refuse.
"What are the conditions?" Jiang Xiao asked.
"First, you and I have to make some hand gestures, so that we can communicate in secret after we meet." Lu An said, "Is this a problem?"
Jiang Xiao did not refuse, but instead her frown loosened a little, because this was a normal request. Although they could use Spiritual Consciousness to communicate, and others could not hear the contents of the Spiritual Consciousness Transmission, but if they deliberately released their Spiritual Consciousness, they could perceive the process of the Spiritual Consciousness surging in the air, which meant that they might find out that the two of them were communicating with their Spiritual Consciousness, which was more dangerous. Therefore, some fixed and subtle hand gestures were more effective.
"Okay." Jiang Xiao said, "What's the second condition?"
"Second, if I refuse something, you have to refuse it no matter what." Lu An said, "Whether I refuse with words or gestures, you have to refuse with me."
"…" Jiang Xiao frowned again and said, "There are some things that I can't refuse. If I refuse forcefully, wouldn't it be even more suspicious?"
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to harm you. If there's something I can't refuse, I won't ask you to do it," Lu An said.
"…"
Jiang Xiao looked at Chu Xing with dissatisfaction. She did not hide the dissatisfaction on her face, but in the situation where Chu Xing did not budge, she could only say, "Alright, what other conditions do you have?"
"Third, after you marry into a top clan, if I can go with you, when I want to leave, you have to find an excuse for me." Lu An said, "This is very simple for you. You just have to say that there is something on the star that you need me to deal with."
After hearing Lu An's words, Jiang Xiao nodded impatiently. She didn't expect there to be a third condition, so she said, "Why are there so many conditions? Are there no more?"
"There's one last thing." Lu An looked at Jiang Xiao and said seriously, "I won't do anything to serve others, and I won't bow and bend my knees to anyone. You must not make me do such a thing, or I will be very angry. "
Hearing Chu Xing's tone suddenly become serious, Jiang Xiao could not help but be stunned. Looking at Chu Xing's face, she realized that this was the most important of the four conditions. However, Jiang Xiao did not immediately agree. Instead, she frowned and thought for a while before saying, "I can ask you not to serve others, but you sacrificed your Divine Sense to me. You can't do nothing to me, right? I don't need you to bow and bend your knees, but you have to pass on messages and run errands. Otherwise, if you don't do anything, others will think that I'm raising a master! "
Hearing Jiang Xiao's words, Lu An took a light breath. After thinking for a while, he said, "Alright, we'll do as you say. This is my bottom line."
Seeing Chu Xing agree, Jiang Xiao was relieved and said, "Since these are the conditions, there is no problem with our cooperation. Find your enemy as soon as possible, and I will continue to be my wife. I still have some things to prepare for tomorrow's marriage proposal. If you don't have anything else, don't leave. I will have the servants take you to prepare. Of course, you don't have to do it yourself. Just watch them do it. The main thing is to show your face and let everyone know that you are working for me. Otherwise, if I suddenly announce that you sacrificed your Divine Sense to me, it would be too fake. I would have to wait for people to ask me about it before I tell them the truth. "
Lu An thought for a while before nodding in agreement. After all, he had just come out of seclusion. Although he had found his path, he had already reached his limit. Even if he could continue on this path, he was not in a hurry. Making contact with the top clans of the Spirit Race was more important. Staying here for a day was nothing.
Seeing Chu Xing agree, Jiang Xiao immediately called the servant girl outside and had the servant girl lead him to the storage area to see if he had missed anything.
After hearing Jiang Xiao's words, the servant girl was clearly stunned. Although she knew that Chu Xing had been transferred from the Fourth Young Master to the First Young Miss, she did not think that the First Young Miss would trust this person so much. Eight days ago, when Chu Xing had arrived, she had sent him out to carry out a mission. Now that she had appeared again and asked him to check the storage area, wasn't she trusting him too much?
And … … Chu Xing was not even a member of the Jiang Clan.
But a servant girl was still a servant girl. She could not go against the First Young Miss' orders, much less question them. She could only accept the order and say, "Yes."
Then, the servant girl turned to look at Chu Xing. This time, she said very respectfully, "Young Master Chu, please follow me."
Chu Xing nodded slightly. He followed behind the servant girl and prepared to leave the building. But at this moment, a Divine Sense suddenly appeared in his sea of consciousness. It was Jiang Xiao's voice.
"From now on, change your personality. Don't be so cold. Be more normal. Let others discover the change in your personality." Jiang Xiao said quickly, "They say that a dead person's nature is hard to change. If your personality changes greatly, everyone will believe that you sacrificed your Divine Sense to me."
After hearing Jiang Xiao's voice, Lu An turned to look at Jiang Xiao. But it was only a glance. He immediately turned back and left with the servant girl.
Seeing Chu Xing leave with the servant girl, in reality, after truly starting to work with this man, Jiang Xiao's heart started to feel a little apprehensive.
She hoped that this man would be more cautious and not reveal any flaws. She hoped that he would not trap her.

In the palace, Lu An followed the servant girl out of Jiang Xiao's courtyard. But they did not walk too far. Soon, they arrived in front of a pavilion. This servant girl's strength was in the Normal Person Realm. She turned to Chu Xing and said respectfully, "Young Master Chu, this is where the supplies are."
Lu An nodded slightly and said, "Okay."
In his words, Lu An's tone was a lot lighter. Although he had not reached his normal speaking state, his voice was a lot softer than before.
After hearing Lu An's voice, the servant girl was a little surprised. But she tried not to show it. She looked at Chu Xing. Only now did she discover that this person's demeanor had changed. Although it was still cold, the fierceness had basically disappeared.
How could this be?
So strange!
This servant girl was a little dazed. She could not even pretend anymore. But Lu An naturally would not stay here and look at her in a daze. He said, "Miss, go busy yourself. I can go in myself."
Saying so, Lu An left the servant girl's side and walked into the pavilion.
Lu An entered the pavilion, but the maidservant continued to stare at his back in shock until he completely disappeared from her sight. After two breaths, the servant girl took a deep breath. She shook her head as if she had seen a ghost. She did not know why this person's face suddenly changed.
What was going on?
But … to be able to cultivate to the Normal Person Realm, she was definitely not stupid. Very quickly, this servant girl immediately realized something. Her eyes suddenly widened!
Divine Sense Sacrifice?!
If it was really Divine Sense Sacrifice, then this Chu Xing must have already been controlled by Big Miss. Big Miss could make Chu Xing do anything. Even the character of 'mountains and rivers are easy to change, but a person's nature is hard to change' was not a problem. Big Miss only needed one sentence and it would immediately change!
And if it really was a sacrifice of Divine Sense, then everything could be explained. It was completely reasonable for Eldest Miss to have Chu Xing inspect the items!
But …
The servant girl suddenly shuddered. Even if she was a servant, even if her job was to serve Big Miss, she definitely did not want to Divine Sense Sacrifice to Big Miss. If she did not have her own consciousness, then what was the point of living. It would no longer be her own life, but someone else's life.
