Chapter 169 Taking advantage of the situation
Qiqi understood that they had a backup plan. She took advantage of the situation and accepted the spirit stone. She asked Xiaota to release the fake sect leader.
The leader saw that he had really let his brother go. He carried his brother on his back, called out to his disciples, and flew away. After flying a few kilometers, he stopped and said, "You two, keep an eye on these two from a distance and see where they go."
The two disciples agreed and walked away. The sect leader asked the disciples to carry his brother on their backs, and he clenched his fists, "I will come back for revenge. We will take the spirit stone."
Qiqi and Zhou Jingze flew slowly and felt that there were two people following them, so they slowly flew back to the imperial city and headed straight for the palace of Shunqing Kingdom.
When they arrived at the palace, they saw the two of them following them. Qiqi and the other two came to a rockery very close to the imperial study and entered the space.
The two who followed also arrived at the rockery. They bravely searched carefully but couldn't find Qiqi and the others. They knew Qiqi and the others were hiding in the rockery, out of their reach. To avoid alerting the enemy and having them come out and kill them, they quickly returned.
Qiqi and the other two watched as the two men quickly rode on their flying swords to chase after the sect leader.
The two of them knew that their plan had succeeded, so Qiqi placed the marked spirit stone on the top of the rockery and let them fight each other in the future.
Qiqi and Zhou Jingze teleported out of the imperial city. When Qiqi got tired, she let him carry her. They arrived at the border city of Yongning Kingdom early in the morning. They entered the space and stayed there for a long time, checking to see if anyone was following them. They changed their clothes. Seeing no one was following them, they left the space with Jingze, Master, and Master's Wife.
They arrived at Fuxiangju. When the shopkeeper saw Qiqi, he walked over quickly. "Greetings, owner of the building."
The shopkeeper quickly led Qiqi and the others to a private room. He had the waiter bring tea and snacks, then he excused himself and went back to arrange the meal.
After dinner, Qiqi and the others asked the shopkeeper to arrange a place for them to rest. They didn't want to leave today. After a day of rest, they could use teleportation or Lingbo Weibu to return to Yongning Palace at night. It was inconvenient for them to use these during the day.
After the four of them finished dinner that evening, Qiqi moved her master and mistress into the space. She and Zhou Jingze practiced the Lingbo Weibu technique. When they got tired, Zhou Jingze would teleport with Qiqi. Early in the morning, they arrived outside the Yongning Kingdom's imperial city. They found a deserted spot and entered the space to rest.
The master's wife prepared food for them early in the morning. After washing up, they started eating.
"Qiqi, what are your thoughts for the future?" Yun Jizi asked.
"Master, I plan to stay here for more than ten days. I don't know when I will come next time. You and Brother Jingze can teach Brother Liu Junyang the magic so that he can practice it. I will ask him to find a doctor who wants to learn alchemy and ask Master's wife to accept her as a disciple. Then I will feel relieved when I leave." Qiqi said.
"Okay, Qiqi, I will teach him once you have chosen one. I will teach him as soon as possible." said the master's wife.
Yun Jizi and Zhou Jingze also agreed to let Qiqi teach Liu Junyang.
They rested for a day. In the evening, Qiqi and the others left the space and teleported to the imperial study. The old emperor and Liu Junyang were waiting for them. There had been no news from them for several days, and the old emperor had Liu Junyang send people to inquire about them every day.
Seeing Qiqi returned safely, the old emperor excitedly took Qiqi's hand and looked left and right to see if she was injured. Liu Junyang also looked at Zhou Jingze, and they were relieved to see that both of them were safe.
"Qiqi, you are finally back. You must be hungry. Let's prepare the imperial meal. Taoist priest, please take a seat. You have worked hard." said the old emperor.
Soon, the chief eunuch poured them tea. Soon, the imperial banquet filled the imperial study. The old emperor personally served the dishes to Qiqi on her left. Zhou Jingze peeled shrimp for her on her right.
The master's wife smiled when she saw this, and she also picked up some food for Yun Jizi. They were both in a good mood.
Liu Junyang also looked at his father. Was this the same father who always had a stern face? He seemed like a completely different person. Why did he never pick up food for himself? He felt a little jealous.
"Father, you are too partial. You have never picked up food for me since I was a child. Father is partial to Sister Qiqi." Liu Junyang said.
"You little bastard, you are a boy, how can you compare with your sister? I just like your sister. You are my prince and will inherit the throne in the future. Your sister only comes for a few days a year, and I pamper her for a few days. You little bastard are jealous." The old emperor said pretending to be angry.
"Brother Junyang, you are not jealous, you just want father to pay more attention to you, right? Hahaha, Brother Junyang, I can see through your pettiness at a glance." Qiqi said.
"Sister, you see through me." Liu Junyang laughed. Yun Jizi also liked this boy for his upright character.
Zhou Jingze was deeply moved by the old emperor's doting on Qiqi, and he respected the old emperor very much. He also respected his brother-in-law. Both father and son were kind and generous gentlemen.
Qiqi was so happy eating. "Thank you for the seafood, father. I love it. I want to eat it again tomorrow." Qiqi said coquettishly.
"Okay, okay, as long as Qiqi likes it, I will ask the imperial chef to make it for you. Don't be polite to father."
Qiqi was also full and washed her hands. Zhou Jingze brought her a cup of tea, which she drank in one gulp. She smiled at Brother Jingze.
"Father, this is a longevity pill. If you take it, you can increase your lifespan and improve your resistance." Qiqi took out a pill and a bottle of spiritual spring water and asked her father to take it.
The old emperor took the pill and the spiritual spring water. He put the pill in his mouth and washed it down with the spiritual spring water. After eating it, he felt comfortable all over and felt stronger. His leg pain also eased.
The old emperor cried out in joy. "Qiqi, the elixir is so effective! I feel refreshed all over."
Qiqi smiled and said, "Father, the pill is effective, right? You feel better now!" She smiled smugly.
"Thank you, I can live for a few more decades."
Qiqi took out a few more peaches imbued with spiritual energy and distributed them to everyone. The old emperor and Liu Junyang took the peaches, smelling the fragrant aroma. They couldn't help but take a bite.
Liu Junyang couldn't stop eating the delicious food. He finished it in a few bites, but he still felt unsatisfied. He reached out and asked Qiqi for another one. Qiqi took out two and handed them to him.
The old emperor ate slowly, but he had never tasted such delicious peaches before. They didn't know that peaches imbued with spiritual energy were rare even in the immortal world. He finished his meal quickly, too embarrassed to ask Qiqi for more.
Qiqi quickly took out two more from the space and gave them to the emperor, telling him to eat them and not to keep any for others, lest others find out and bring disaster to the emperor.
Qiqi felt relieved when she saw her father finish eating.
