Chapter 1697: Chapter 1697: 360-Degree Surveillance with No Blind Spots
…
Unaware of the scene outside, Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue carried on with their tasks.
After breakfast, An Jiuyue dedicated herself to refining the antidote. She simply instructed Wei Na to keep an eye on the surroundings and notify her of any developments.
Meanwhile, Qian Jiyun sat by her side,
acting as her protector and standing guard while also focusing on his own task, as his space and the Dragon Soul had not yet fully integrated and required more of his time.
When Zhan Beiye brought in their meals, he found each of them busy with their own matters.
An Jiuyue was about to throw a medicinal herb into the pill-refining furnace. Looking up at the sound of someone entering, she saw Zhan Beiye’s cheerful face.
“He really knows how to stay calm and mind his own business, doesn’t he?”
Zhan Beiye said with a laugh, glancing at Qian Jiyun, then jokingly remarked to An Jiuyue.
“I don’t need him to watch over me all the time.”
An Jiuyue cast the herb into the medicinal furnace and sealed it with a lid. Then she turned to the tray in Zhan Beiye’s hands, which held three dishes and a soup.
“The food looks good, need me to bring out more dishes?” ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
“No need, you do your thing.”
Zhan Beiye set the tray down on another table and said,
“It’s not like we brought them here to retire. Can’t they get their own food if they want something? Why should you bother? I’ll watch over things here, you eat first.”
Hearing this, An Jiuyue nodded.
She set aside her pill-refining work and sat down at the table to start her meal.
As for Qian Jiyun, if he got hungry, he would find something to eat himself; there was no need for her to worry about him. She was more concerned about Xiang Qiyan.
“How is Big Brother Qi Yan doing?” she asked.
This question, one she posed every time she saw Zhan Beiye, had become a habit.
“Don’t you know your own medicine?” Zhan Beiye counter-questioned.
“Heh.”
An Jiuyue chuckled softly.
“I’ll have Su Tang place two people at the door, so that Jiyun can be at ease,” Zhan Beiye, seeing her smile, did not continue to talk about Xiang Qiyan and suggested instead.
“There is no need.”
An Jiuyue declined his offer.
She didn’t need anyone here. With Wei Na, they could monitor everything with no dead angles. More people would only bring chaos, and she didn’t want the guards to gossip any further.
“Did Wei Na mention Gu Qingyu went fishing by the sea?”
Just after Zhan Beiye had come in, Wei Na informed her about Gu Qingyu, who was now rushing to the seaside to catch fish.
But she just didn’t understand, how could a girl behave in such a manner, acting so senselessly? If it had been her, she would have taken care of matters by now, right?
Zhan Beiye: “…”
What did that woman’s fishing have to do with him?
He only instructed someone to watch Gu Qingyu. The rest wasn’t his concern—who has the time to keep an eye on her every day?
“Sometimes, I really can’t figure out what you and Jiyun are up to, selling what kind of ‘medicine’ in that gourd of yours. What exactly are your plans? With only a few people, why not just deal with them directly?”
Hadn’t Gu Qingyu already caused them enough trouble on their journey? Had it been up to him, he would have taken care of it long ago.
“Isn’t it said that in Jianghu, Qingyun Sect is a force to be reckoned with?”
Zhan Beiye: “!”
So they were actually setting their sights on Qingyun Sect.
“You really are something.”
They had just dealt with the nearly decimated Liushang Sect under Xiang Qifeng’s control, and now they were targeting Qingyun Sect.
