She thought that the three of them could go together and take care of each other on the way. She did not expect Ye Chen to suddenly go home for something. Qian Xing kept muttering, feeling unhappy. She turned her head and stole a glance at Li Shuo. He still looked cold, but his side profile was really good. Qian Xing was a little stunned. Li Shuo sensed that Qian Xing was looking at him, so he turned his head and met Qian Xing's gaze. Qian Xing turned her head away in a panic, feeling a little embarrassed. Qian Xing suddenly thought of something and asked Li Shuo what happened in Jin Baicao's house and why he appeared in the secret room. Li Shuo told Qian Xing everything. He knew that Jin Baicao was not a good person and had been on guard against him. He disappeared after the leech poison was cured and then secretly monitored Jin Baicao. "No wonder the Golden Herbs kept preventing us from seeing you. He thought that you had left. You were the one who helped us open the secret room, right?”Seeing that Li Shuo didn't deny it, Qian Xing took a big step forward and turned to face Li Shuo. Li Shuo stopped and the two of them faced each other on the busy street. " Why didn't you show up earlier? If you did, maybe things wouldn't have turned out like this!"”Li Shuo avoided Qian Xing's gaze and slowly said," I'm sorry.。。。。。”Qian Xing saw that he wanted to say something but hesitated, and she was even angrier. She hated men who dilly-dallied the most. She knew that she wasn't an unreasonable person. If he really had his difficulties, he could just tell her frankly that he had his difficulties. What did he mean by apologizing now? Qian Xing looked at the man in front of her and became angrier and angrier. Thus, she said angrily," You don't have to pretend to be kind. I'll go by myself!”Then, he left without looking back.
Along the way, Qian Xing wondered if he had gone too far just now. Perhaps Li Shuo really had something that he couldn't tell others. Although he was like a block of ice, he had saved him before. Now that he was the only one left, he was less confident in saving the Snake Core Grass. Thinking of this, Qian Xing regretted acting on impulse just now. At the very least, he would wait until he helped him save the Snake Core Grass before parting ways with him. Qian Xing could not help but knock his head with his hand. He was really stupid! "Stop knocking. You're not smart to begin with. If you knock again, you'll really be stupid.。。”Qian Xing was startled by the sudden voice. Then, he heard the hearty laughter. He knew who it was without looking. Qian Xing turned around and saw Ye Chen standing behind her. Ye Chen called out softly," Little Star." When he heard these two words, Qian Xing's heart skipped a beat. The person in front of her always appeared when she was at her most helpless and lost. It was like a spring breeze blowing on the grass covered in snow. It was so warm and comfortable. At this moment, Thousand Star's black pearl-like eyes were emitting a gentle and beautiful light, like the lake under the setting sun. Ye Chen was shocked by Qian Xing's gentle eyes. He did not know how to describe them. These were the most beautiful and dazzling eyes he had ever seen. They were like water and stars. They were thousands of times more beautiful than the galaxy on a summer night and the fireflies dancing in the grass. Ye Chen called out softly,"Little Star". Qian Xing came back to her senses and lowered her head with an "oh". Her cheeks were a little hot. "Why are you here? Didn't you have an emergency at home?”Qian Xing lowered his head and said. Ye Chen returned to his usual indifferent tone and replied," My brother has already settled the matters at home. I went back to report that I was safe and came to look for you."”Then, she put her head into Qian Xing's ear and whispered,"The things at home are not as important as you."”Qian Xing's ears turned red. She pushed Ye Chen away and rebuked," You're glib again. I'm being serious with you!"”Ye Chen smiled and said in a very serious tone," I'm worried about you. I want to help you.”Qian Xing looked at Ye Chen with a touched expression and returned him a sweet smile. However, Ye Chen did not expect him to revert to his old habits and said with a smirk," Besides, you two are alone on the road together. Of course I'm worried. What if Little Star is kidnapped by the ice cube?"”Qianxing rolled her eyes at him and said disdainfully," A single man and a single woman. How can there be a single man when there's only a single woman?”Ye Chen then realized that he did not see Li Shuo and asked," Where's the ice man?”"I scolded him and he ran away." Ye Chen let out an " ah " in disbelief. Qian Xing said angrily," Let's not talk about him anymore. He saved me, and I saved him too. We're even now. We don't owe each other anything in the future. We'll go our separate ways."”Ye Chen saw that Qian Xing was unhappy and did not ask further.
Ye Chen hired a boat and sailed to the Blissful Island. Qian Xing and the others asked many fishermen, but no one knew the exact location of the Blissful Island. They all said that it was just a mirage and advised them to go back. Later, when they saw that Qian Xing and Ye Chen did not seem to be joking, they vaguely told them the approximate location. Ye Chen stood at the bow of the boat and rowed while Qian Xing curled up in the corner of the cabin. She was very afraid of water, especially now that she was at sea. However, she did not want Ye Chen to worry, so she did not tell him. The ship kept shaking on the sea. Qian Xing was in extreme pain. She hugged her legs tightly and buried her head deep into her knees. She hated the sound of the sea hitting the ship. She trembled and hoped that everything would end soon so that they could get ashore. She told Ye Chen that she was sleeping and told him not to disturb her. Ye Chen was paddling quietly. The sky gradually darkened and the orange sunset was reflected on the sea. Ye Chen called out to the cabin," Little lazy cat, it's time to get up. Look at how beautiful the sunset is."”Qian Xing did not answer him. Ye Chen really wanted to watch the sunset sink into the sea bit by bit with Qian Xing. He could not help but call out to Qian Xing," Little Star, Little Star, wake up. It's not every day to watch the sunset in the sea. Get up quickly."”Qian Xing replied softly,"I don't want to see it."”Ye Chen could tell that something was wrong with Qian Xing's tone. He walked into the cabin worriedly. When he saw Qian Xing curled up in the corner and trembling, his heart sank as if someone had tied a stone to him and thrown it into the sea. He could not care less and immediately went forward to hug Qian Xing. Qian Xing was still resisting, but she quickly gave up and fell into Ye Chen's arms. Ye Chen's heart ached and he blamed himself. Why was he so stupid? It took him so long to realize. Qian Xing was very afraid of water. The darker the sky was, the more afraid she was. She was afraid that there would be monsters in the sea that would drag her into the sea. She was afraid that she would fall into the sea and drown. She felt that the suffocating feeling of being unable to breathe in the water was very familiar, as if it had happened before. She couldn't remember it, and she didn't want to think about it. She wanted to hide herself, where the sea, fear, and suffocation couldn't find her. However, she had forgotten that she was not alone. Qian Xing, who was lying in Ye Chen's arms, felt warmth and peace of mind. She slowly opened her eyes and raised her head. Her head was resting on Ye Chen's chin. Ye Chen naturally used his chin to matte Qian Xing's hair. Qian Xing could not help but smile. Ye Chen noticed it and rebuked," Why didn't you tell me that you're so afraid of water? Do you know how scary you looked just now? I was so worried."”Qian Xing was happy, but she still said stubbornly," Who said I'm afraid of water? I'm just seasick. It's because your rowing skills are too bad that I'm like this.”Ye Chen sighed softly and did not argue. Then, he said in a serious tone that he had never used before," In the future, you can't force yourself. I will protect you. I will always be by your side."”Qian Xing was stunned. For hundreds of years, he had been living alone and no one had ever cared about him. Now that someone cared about him and said that he would protect him and accompany him, all of Qian Xing's defenses disappeared at this moment. Qian Xing burrowed into Ye Chen's arms and Ye Chen hugged Qian Xing even tighter. The two of them leaned against each other on the boat. The setting sun slowly sank into the sea and stars appeared in the sky. Qian Xing and Ye Chen floated quietly with the waves. Ye Chen lowered his head to look at the person who was sleeping soundly in his arms. His eyes were full of love and a flash of worry and fear.
"Father, I will kill the leech demon. I will not disappoint you.”Ye Chen knelt on the ground and said confidently. Ye Chi sat on the crystal throne carved with dragon patterns and nodded in satisfaction. Who knew that Ye Chen's younger brother would also come over and ask his father to kill the leech demon. Ye Chen's younger brother, Ye Zhao, liked to fight with his elder brother Ye Chen for everything. Although he was the youngest among the brothers, he was indeed the most vicious. He could not stand his father leaving everything to his two brothers. He wanted to prove that he was the most outstanding son of his father. Ye Chi knew Ye Zhao's character very well. He was reckless and impulsive, brave but not resourceful, and liked to be in the limelight. This kind of personality was not suitable for carrying out missions alone. However, Ye Zhao was also the most innocent and unscheming of the three brothers. Ye Chi could understand what he wanted and what he was thinking at a glance, unlike the other two sons. He could never guess, so Ye Chi loved this youngest son the most. Ye Chi did not hesitate to assign Ye Chen. Ye Zhao was very unhappy and shouted," Father is biased. You always say that I'm brave but not resourceful. I'm suitable for charging into battle and not for strategizing. I only send Big Brother and Second Brother for everything. But this time, it's just to kill the leech demon. Isn't it best to send me?"”Ye Chi ignored him and said,"Zhao 'er, don't mess around."”Ye Chen came up to smooth things over and said," Third Brother, who doesn't know that Father loves you the most? Father must have his reasons for doing this. You have to understand."”Ye Zhao shouted loudly," You're talking nonsense. Father doesn't like me at all. He never thought of asking me for help. He only has eyes for you."”After Ye Chi heard this, he flew into a rage out of humiliation and slammed the table, shouting," You unfilial son, get out!”Ye Zhao still wanted to go forward and argue, but Ye Chen pulled him back. Ye Chen dragged Ye Zhao down from the hall, and Ye Zhao pushed Ye Chen away and said angrily," Don't be hypocritical. You can't wait for Father to punish me so that you can remove a stumbling block."”Ye Chen knew that he was angry and Ye Zhao would not believe him no matter how he explained, so he could only comfort him and leave. Ye Zhao saw that Ye Chen had left and there was no point in staying any longer, so he secretly went to the mortal world to relieve his boredom.
Ye Chi brought Ye Chen to his room and handed him a brocade bag. The brocade bag emitted a faint green light. Ye Chen asked in confusion,"Father, what is this?"”"Snake Heart Grass." "Snake Heart Grass, I don't understand." Ye Chi told him," I sensed the Thousand Star Bead. The Snake Heart Grass is a spirit beast with a keen sense of smell. It will help you find the Thousand Star Bead."”Ye Chen took the brocade pouch and asked,"What's the use of the Thousand Star Bead?" Why is Father looking for the Thousand Star Bead?" Ye Chi said seriously," You don't need to know that. You just need to get the Thousand Star Bead back."”Ye Chen did not dare to ask any more questions and left.
In the Crane Valley, the Snake Heart Grass led him to meet Qian Xing. She had her back to him at that time, and Ye Chen could not help but tease her when he heard her talking to herself. However, when she turned around, Ye Chen was immediately attracted. He fell in love with this mortal woman whom he had never met before. He knew that his goal was the Thousand Star Bead, and the Thousand Star Bead was with this woman. However, he was unwilling to snatch it away. Ye Chen did not know what to do. In short, he could not let Qian Xing think that he was a bad person. Ye Chen did not expect Qian Xing's target to be the leech demon. Such a coincidence made Ye Chen happy.
After the Golden Hundred Herbs incident was over, Ye Chen wanted to return to report. He didn't get the Thousand Star Bead back. Ye Chi was very angry. Ye Chen, who had always been successful, actually failed. Ye Chi questioned him about the reason, but he tried to find a way to avoid it. Ye Chi wanted him to continue investigating the Thousand Star Bead, which was exactly what Ye Chen wanted. Ye Chen could not wait to go to the mortal world to find Little Star.
