Luo Qingzhou thought, “Forget it, I’ll just ignore her.”
“Ifshe wants to eavesdrop, so be it.”
Luo Qingzhou did not hesitate anymore and asked, “Miss Bai Ling, I saw a pair of siblings in Madam’s backyard earlier. Their names are Dongdong and Xixi. Did you bring them into the residence?”
Bai Ling was stunned. “Dongdong and Xixi?”
She blinked in confusion. Then she suddenly remembered. “Oh, is it that pair of beggars? Yes, I brought them into the residence. What’s wrong?”
Luo Qingzhou stared into her eyes and said, “Where did you meet them? Why did you suddenly bring them into the residence?”
Bai Ling thought for a moment and said, “In an alley. At that time, I was shopping alone and wandering around. Then, I found them in an alley. I saw that they were quite pitiful and were about to freeze to death. I thought that Madam still lacked a few gardeners, so I took mercy upon them and brought them back. Sir, why are you asking this? Do you know them?”
Luo Qingzhou could not tell anything from her eyes. After a moment of silence, he said, “Then do you know where that alley is?”
Bai Ling tilted her head and thought for a moment before shaking her head.
“Sir, I rarely go out. There are many roads outside that I don’t know.”
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment again. He stared at her and slowly said, “Back then, the Chengguo Residence broke off the engagement and suddenly got the lowly illegitimate son to take the legitimate son’s place and marry on his behalf. When the news reached your ears, you must have gone to the Chengguo Residence to take a look at that illegitimate son, right?”
Bai Ling’s eyes widened. She looked at him and said, “Sir, are you talking about yourself? Why do I feel more and more confused? What are you trying to say?”
Luo Qingzhou paused and retracted his gaze from her. He looked at the falling snow and revealed a hint of self-deprecation in his eyes. He muttered, “I don’t know either.”
“Sir… ”
“Forget it, it’s fine. It’s cold outside. Miss Bai Ling and Miss Xia Chan, go in quickly, I’m going back.”
Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and bade farewell.
“Since she was unwilling to say the truth, forget it.”
Since he could not get anything out of her, there was no need to waste any more time.
Whether it was a coincidence or intentional, it was no longer that important to him.
He should make the best use of his time to cultivate.
After he walked far away in the snow, Bai Ling looked at the cold girl at the
door and suddenly smiled. “Chanchan, how should you thank me? Take off
your clothes and sleep with me tonight, let me kiss your lips for the whole
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtnight, okay?”
Xia Chan did not speak. She turned around and entered the house.
Bai Ling yelled, “Do you feel that kissing on the lips isn’t enough? If that’s so, I can kiss other places too!”
“Is it still not enough? Then I’ll take off my clothes and serve you tonight. I’ll let you kiss my mouth for the entire night, okay? I still have the lingering smell of Sir on me. I couldn’t bear to wash it.’
Bai Ling chased after her with a smile.
Luo Qingzhou returned to the small courtyard and entered the kitchen. He cooked the remaining beef and ate a large piece.
Xiao Die was still busy embroidering in the room.
When Luo Qingzhou pushed the door open and entered, the little girl was holding a bodice that had half a peony embroidered on it and gesturing with it in front of her slightly bulging chest.
“Ah, Young Master…”
When the little girl saw him suddenly enter, she hurriedly hid her undergarment behind her back shyly and blushed slightly.
Luo Qingzhou walked to the bed and picked up the other half-finished products. He took a few glances and praised, “Not bad. Continue to work hard.”
With that, he left.
He returned to his room and closed the door.
Then, he lit the incense and got into bed.
He sat cross-legged.
He closed his eyes, composed himself, and focused.
His soul began to leave his body.
After the first time last night, tonight was much easier.
His soul crawled out of the top of his head and rose into the air like smoke.
Luo Qingzhou looked down at his body and began to float around the room.
After floating for a while, he suddenly realized that the drawer in the corner had lit up with a fluorescent light. It looked especially clear in the dark room.
He was stunned for a moment. He floated closer and realized that the fluorescent light was a mask.
The ghost mask he had picked up at the bottom of the lake.
He hesitated, then tried to reach out. All at once, he penetrated the drawer, reached inside, and grabbed at the glowing mask.
He thought that the empty palm would pass through the mask, but a strange situation suddenly happened!
He could grab the mask!
The touch was delicate, soft, and slightly cold. It felt similar to when his physical hand grabbed it.
Weird.
Not only could this mask be held by his physical body, but it could also be held by his illusory soul.
It seemed that just like the Lunisolar Mirror, it was not simple.
Luo Qingzhou held it in his hand and floated to a high place. He studied it but did not see anything unusual.
He hesitated for a moment before holding it with both hands and carefully putting it on his face.
The soft mask was pressed against his face. At first, it was a little big and loose. After he pressed it a few times with his fingertips, the mask automatically tightened and suddenly became tightly fitted to his face, as if it was custom-made!
Whoosh!
Right at this moment, his entire body suddenly lit up with a faint fluorescent light that enveloped his entire body. From the outside, one could only see a blurry figure. Be it his facial features or outline, or even his fat and thin body, one could not see him clearly.
Luo Qingzhou’s soul had just felt a little cold. Now that he was wearing a mask and wrapped in fluorescent light, he felt warm.
He was stunned for a moment before he quickly floated around the room for a while. His entire body was as warm as spring, and he did not feel cold at all.
“Can this mask protect the soul?’
As Luo Qingzhou thought this, he suddenly looked out of the window.
It was snowing heavily outside and there was a cold wind. His soul, which had just left his body, was too weak and did not dare to go out at all.
Once it was blown into pieces by the wind and disintegrated, it would be very difficult for it to gather together.
In serious cases, the souls might even dissipate.
But now…
He decided to give it a try.
With the mask on, he was wrapped in fluorescent light. He carefully passed through the window and stopped on the windowsill outside. He did not dare to go too far out immediately.
The cold wind blew, and snowflakes drifted into the eaves. A few landed on him.
It was a little cold.
However, compared to before, he felt much better.
Emboldened, he continued to float forward and carefully left the eaves.
Whoo…
A gust of cold wind with snowflakes suddenly blew over.
Luo Qingzhou’s heart skipped a beat. Just as he was about to retreat, he realized that his body only trembled slightly. There was a trace of coldness, but it quickly warmed up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis soul was still condensed and firm. There were no signs of it being blown away.
The mask was indeed something good!
Luo Qingzhou was relieved. He was no longer afraid and continued to float forward.
He floated in the small courtyard and wandered around in the wind and snow.
After walking around the courtyard, he carefully raised his height and floated up.
Even when he floated to the roof, he still did not feel that it was too dangerous.
Looking down at the entire mansion from above, he suddenly felt heroic and continued to float out.
“Why don’t I sneak a look at Bai Ling and the others?’
With this thought in mind, he began to float toward the Ling Chan Moon Palace.
However, when he was still a hundred meters away from the Ling Chan Moon Palace, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. His soul swayed and he almost fell from midair.
Could it be that his soul was not strong enough and his Spiritual Power was about to be exhausted?
He was shocked and did not dare to move forward. He hurriedly turned around and returned.
However, the strange thing was that just as he turned around and floated for more than ten meters, the terrifying chill suddenly disappeared. His body suddenly felt relaxed and free again. He no longer felt like he was about to fall or that his strength was running out.
“What is going on?’ he wondered.
He turned around and looked in the direction of the Ling Chan Moon Palace. Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat.
Could it be because of Xia Chan?
According to the book, powerful martial artists had vigorous Qi and blood. They had a powerful aura that prevented souls from approaching.
Xia Chan probably did not even need to use her sword, just one look was enough to emit a strong pressure that could make ghosts and ghosts tremble in fear.
“That girl is indeed not to be trifled with!”
Luo Qingzhou did not dare to go again. He floated back to his small courtyard.
He felt that he was still full of energy, so he did not stop and continued to float forward.
Soon, he drifted out of the Qin residence and drifted on the streets outside.
Luo Qingzhou was like a child who had just bought a toy that he had liked for a long time and could not stop playing with it.
However, he still maintained his rationality and did not dare to drift too far away.
After passing through a few streets, he immediately turned around and returned.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened!
Just as he was floating past a house, he suddenly felt a chill all over his body. Then, his soul seemed to have been frozen in midair and did not move at all!
He widened his eyes and looked ahead. He suddenly realized that a figure was standing on the roof of the house in front of him.
The figure emitted a faint moon-white light as if it was enveloped by moonlight. It was hazy, and its figure and appearance could not be seen clearly.
He could only see a few strands of black hair floating out of the light and dancing gently in the cold wind.. This scene felt like a dream…
