Chapter 246 Who to choose?
Qiu Ling pulled her aside and said, "Sister-in-law, do you know why my cousin agreed to go back with us?"
Qingyi was stunned for a moment, clenched her fists and shook her head.
"He wants to have more power to protect you," Qiu Ling chuckled and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't know how good you are. Apart from the imperfections in your appearance, what can be found wrong with you?"
"But," Qingyi pursed her lips, tears flashing in her eyes, "but Xiaoling, do you think a man is really willing to stay forever for a woman? There are too many temptations in the world outside Tianhai Star Body, I..."
Qiu Ling knew that no matter how much she said, Qingyi was still ashamed of her appearance. It was difficult for her to follow Wu Mu back. Those arrogant royal relatives would respect them openly, but secretly they would trip them up, ridicule and mock them. And Qingyi's appearance would become their biggest attack point.
"Before Master Wudao left, he gave us a pill, saying it was for the destined person. Do you dare to try it?" Qiu Ling took out a jade box and handed it over. "That monk loves to keep me in suspense. No matter how I asked, he wouldn't tell me what it was. He just said that one man's meat may be another's poison. To put it bluntly, he was afraid that I would miss him.
Sister-in-law, you should be the destined person he mentioned. After all, our mission is to bring my cousin back. He is strong and healthy, and nothing will happen to him.
Why don't you try it quickly to see what it tastes like and what it does?"
Qingyi looked at the jade box, then at Qiu Ling who was looking at her eagerly, and took it with a chuckle. She took a deep breath and opened the jade box. She didn't even have time to see what the pill looked like before she took it and put it in her mouth.
Her nose then smelled a light herbal aroma, and the pill melted in her mouth. The soft but powerful medicinal power was like the drizzle that brought spring to dead trees, washing over her body. There was also a spiritual power that could not be ignored flowing to her face, accompanied by a slight itchiness and soreness. Qingyi ran to the mirror and saw that her scars were shrinking and turning yellow little by little.
She couldn't help but touch the raised corner of it, and slowly tore it off with bated breath. The new skin was as smooth and white as the surrounding skin, and there was no trace of the previous ugliness at all!
Qingyi tremblingly peeled off the dead skin on her head, neck and arms, looking at the pure and beautiful woman in her memory. It was like a dream. For a moment, she could not tell whether the past hundred years were just a nightmare or a real experience.
"Wow, sister-in-law, is this pill so effective?" Qiu Ling ran over in surprise, looked at Qingyi, and clapped his hands happily: "Sister-in-law, are you still afraid to go back with your cousin now?"
Qingyi touched her smooth face and her thick black hair, smiled and nodded vigorously, "I have to go back, I'm dependent on him!"
However, she still asked Qiu Ling for a hat and scarf, and wrapped herself up like before, wanting to give Wu Mu a surprise in person.
Qiu Ling even brought the food to the hut, "Haha, just now my cousin kept looking over here, asking why my sister-in-law didn't go out to eat, he really didn't leave for a moment.
If Wu Yan and Shang Qi hadn't forced him to drink, who knows who would have come in now."
Listening to her joke, Qingyi smiled and pursed her lips, "I'm afraid the two of you want to get Brother Mu drunk so that he can accompany you, right?"
Qiu Ling smiled and didn't respond.
After dinner, Qingyi returned to her room. The pill was very effective. Not only did it cure all the illnesses she had suffered over the past hundred years, but it also restored her somewhat shriveled body to the curves and fullness of her youth.
She pursed her lips, lay on the bed in her bathrobe, and even covered her head when she heard the door open.
Wu Mu had been on edge these years and had never had a good night's sleep. Today he let himself go a little, drank some wine, and let himself relax, so that he could start a new life tomorrow.
Looking at the bedroom dimly lit by the yellow light and the small bulge under the quilt, he felt a surge of pain in his heart. He felt satisfied and motivated to work hard.
He chuckled and walked forward to embrace her and the quilt in his arms, holding her quietly and talking: "Yier, you have been wronged by me all these years, and I never thought that they had never given up looking for me, so I never revealed my life experience to you. It's all in the past, I don't care anymore, and I don't want you to be sad.
When things here are settled, you will come back with me to the Interstellar Empire to see my father and mother. Don't worry, everything I said to you before will count.
I just want you..."
As he said this, he dug her out of the quilt and saw a pure and beautiful woman. If Wu Mu was not familiar with her gentle eyes, he would have pinched her slender neck too hard.
"Yi, Yi'er?" He looked at her blankly, unable to hide the amazement in his eyes.
"Yes, it's the elixir left by the master who found us. Brother Mu, I have returned to my previous appearance and can go back with you openly." Qingyi gently pushed Wu Mu away from her, turned over and lay on him, kissing his forehead, cheeks and lips, "Tonight, you are not allowed to move..."
Without the inferiority complex about her appearance, Qingyi dared to put herself on an equal footing with him and face up to their relationship.
The woman's enthusiasm and initiative burned away Wu Mu's last bit of rationality...
Wu Yan and Shang Qi drank a little, but they had good alcohol tolerance, which they had practiced.
But they were all leaning against her door, trying to get in? ? ! !
"Lingling, we don't know when we will meet again after leaving Tianhai Star Body this time..."
"Ling Bao, I'm so worried about you. I'm following you despite the risk of not being able to go back... Can you please be gentle with me..."
Every word made Qiu Ling's heart tremble. Normally, they would silently decide who would accompany her behind her back. It was nothing like today when they ran to her to compete for her favor.
Qiu Ling coughed softly, and said to the two people in anticipation: "Since you are all so energetic, let's go out and do some work before we leave Tianhai Star Body!"
So the family of three, plus a bunch of spiritual creatures, activated a thirty-fold time formation, and under the leadership of the land spirit, conducted a carpet search of the Tianhai star.
Qiu Ling also took out a spiritual weapon that could test a person's sin value. This spiritual weapon had a certain time-traveling function and could evaluate a person's sin value from multiple dimensions, such as the cause and effect of life and death, the means of obtaining property, or the friends he made.
Moreover, Wu Yan also obtained the information about the criminals released by the Tianhai star system over the past hundreds of years.
The combination of the two divided the more than 20 million people on the Tianhai star into several categories, and gave different solutions...
