As soon as Ning Ji appeared, he saw Jiang Xiao standing in the room, wearing only thin clothes and looking very pale. He instinctively panicked and hurried forward to ask, "What happened to you?"
With the strength of a Heaven Tier cultivator, some mortal illnesses would not appear at all. This was because the strength of the internal organs, meridians, and blood vessels were countless times stronger than ordinary people. The environment and climate of the star could hardly affect a Heaven Tier cultivator, let alone get sick. Generally speaking, weakness was due to injuries, such as internal injuries. However, Jiang Xiao had not suffered any serious injuries, so Ning Ji was anxious and worried, but also felt strange.
"I'm fine." Jiang Xiao's voice was even trembling as she said, "I was cultivating just now, and it was not going well."
After hearing Jiang Xiao's explanation, Ning Ji did not have any doubts, and instead heaved a sigh of relief. He said, "Don't force yourself to cultivate, and don't damage your body. I'll bring you some elixirs tomorrow."
Seeing Ning Ji's concern and lack of suspicion, Jiang Xiao was completely relieved. Even so, her palms were still cold; it was really too dangerous.
However, dealing with Ning Ji was still a piece of cake for Jiang Xiao. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, she went on as usual. Lu An stood outside the courtyard, and the maidservants were in a small pavilion not far away.
The maidservants naturally saw Lu An and waved at him. These four maidservants were very friendly to him, but after escaping from Jiang Xiao's evil clutches, Lu An was more or less tired and did not want to talk to others, so he shook his head to indicate that he did not go.
Lu An walked alone to a stone chair at the side, which was next to the wall. He sat on the stone chair with his back against the wall, and closed his eyes as if he was sleeping.
Lu An obviously could not sleep, so he pretended to sleep. His sea of consciousness was thinking about cultivation, and he would not waste time.
Lu An originally thought that he would spend the night like this, and that he would be here for a full four days, and should return to the Heavenly Star River at least once. However, contrary to his expectations, Ning Ji left in less than an hour, and at the same time, a divine sense sound transmission entered his sea of consciousness. It was Jiang Xiao's voice.
"You're back."
Lu An frowned slightly. This Jiang Xiao kept disturbing his cultivation, and in these three days, he did not have two hours to meditate. However, he could only get up and walk into the courtyard again.
He walked to the front of the palace and pushed open the door. Jiang Xiao was the only one left in the large room. Without ordering Lu An, Jiang Xiao released her power and closed the door.
Bang.
Lu An glanced at the door and then at Jiang Xiao, asking, "Where is he?"
"He left," Jiang Xiao said. "I said that I was injured during cultivation and he didn't want to disturb my rest, so he left."
"…" Lu An didn't want to say it, but he still said, "Don't you feel ashamed?"
"I think so," Jiang Xiao answered without hesitation.
"Then why did you do those things to me?" Lu An asked again.
Jiang Xiao didn't answer him directly. Instead, she asked, "Do you find cultivation tiring?"
Lu An did not answer, but nodded.
"Then why do you want to cultivate?" Jiang Xiao asked.
"Cultivation is for the sake of becoming stronger. You can do more things," Lu An said. "Can the two be compared?"
"Why not?" Jiang Xiao asked. "Why do you want to become stronger? It's just to make everything go according to your wishes and make yourself happier. Doing these things can make me happy, so why not? "
"…"
Sophistry.
Lu An thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud. He didn't want to keep talking with Jiang Xiao about this kind of thing. They had talked enough. If they continued, it would be an argument. He didn't care about Jiang Xiao's matters. He just said it casually.
"Why did you let me in?" Lu An asked.
"Nothing," Jiang Xiao said. "Haven't you been here for the past two days? Do you have to be here for something?"
"…"
Lu An wanted to refuse. Although Jiang Xiao's betrayal of Ning Ji was her business, he didn't want to involve himself in this betrayal. But in the end, he didn't say anything and sat down. He was now an intelligence officer. He couldn't do things as he liked. He had to do things for the sake of intelligence.
Seeing that Lu An didn't leave, Jiang Xiao was finally satisfied. In fact, she had calmed down just now. She knew that this man had found out that she was deliberately seducing him. Since the other party already knew her intentions and knew that she wanted to control him like she did with Ning Ji, there was no need to do many things.
However … Jiang Xiao was indeed a smart woman. If it were someone else, they might have given up or become angry out of humiliation like Jiang Xin. But Jiang Xiao didn't think so. Everything had its pros and cons. If the previous path didn't work, maybe this would be a different path, which would be more effective.
Both of them were silent for a while. Lu An naturally didn't think about Jiang Xiao's matter. Instead, he immediately thought about cultivation and simulated the situation of cultivation in his Sea of Consciousness. Lu An even often simulated close combat scenes in his Sea of Consciousness … Even if his close combat strength was very strong and he hadn't met a strong opponent for a long time, he didn't think that he was the strongest.
Everyone had room to grow, and he was the same.
However, at this moment, Jiang Xiao broke the silence again.
"Do you have a woman you like?" Jiang Xiao's voice was very calm, as if she had given up. She looked at Lu An and asked.
Lu An frowned. Being interrupted again made him unhappy, but he also opened his eyes to look at Jiang Xiao and said, "No."
"Then, do you have a woman you like?" Jiang Xiao asked again.
"Yes." Lu An said.
"What kind of woman can make you like her?" Jiang Xiao was very curious and spoke in a calm tone, "Tell me about it."
Lu An knew that no matter what he said, this woman would find a way to talk to him. But he could only say, "She's very good."
"…" Jiang Xiao felt that this man could end the topic at any time, but she still controlled her temper. This time, she couldn't let herself be impulsive and said, "What's good about her?"
"She's good in every way." Lu An said.
"…" Jiang Xiao felt that her anger seemed to be rising again, but she quickly suppressed it and asked, "For example? Can you give me a specific example? "
Lu An thought for a moment and said, "She's very beautiful."
"So it's a beauty. It seems that you also like beauty. I thought you weren't interested in beauty." Jiang Xiao said with a smile, but suddenly realized something and immediately asked, "Am I not beautiful?"
"You're okay." Lu An said, "But not as beautiful as her."
"You!"
Any woman would be angry when a man said such words to her face, let alone Jiang Xiao. Her two fists unconsciously clenched, but she suppressed her anger again and said, "Is that so? You haven't liked anyone else except her? "
"No." Lu An said.
"Why?" Jiang Xiao asked with a frown. "There are so many beauties in the world!"
"They're not as beautiful as her." Lu An said.
"How can there be such a person? Everyone's aesthetic is different. Who dares to say that they're the most beautiful? "Jiang Xiao immediately retorted," I think you've fallen too deep and been poisoned! "
"Maybe." Lu An said.
"Since it's the past, don't miss the past. Put her down and you'll find all kinds of beauties. "Jiang Xiao said," I know quite a number of beauties. Why don't I introduce a few to you? "
"Forget it." Lu An said, "If you really think that they're more beautiful than you, I don't mind."
"…"
With one sentence, Jiang Xiao's words were completely blocked.
Jiang Xiao felt that she couldn't continue the conversation. She really went back to the bed with a headache and covered herself with a blanket to rest. She did not do anything to tempt Lu An.
Finally, Jiang Xiao calmed down, allowing Lu An to think seriously. Not only did he have to cultivate, he also had to think about the mission here and the third battle that could happen at any time.
Wait a minute!
Lu An's heart shook. Even his closed eyes trembled!
The third battle!
Fu Yu said that the third battle could happen at any time and the scale would be much bigger than before! The Heavenly Star River could only passively defend and accept the Spirit Star River's attack. If he could get the exact time of the Spirit Star River's battle, wouldn't he be able to help the Heavenly Star River and save countless lives?
If he could get all the plans, wouldn't he be able to set up a trap in advance and cause the Spirit Star River to suffer heavy losses?
Lu An's heart became heavier and heavier.
This matter was also very important. Ning Ji was the young master of a top clan. It was very likely that he knew the plan. He had to act as soon as possible!
