Chapter 1335: As Expected, It Was Star Lord Yuan Qing I Saw!
The small magical creatures sniffled and turned their faces to look at Bai Zhi’er.
Them: "Chirp chirp chirp chirp..."
The gist was: Got caught in the rain last night and fell ill.
Bai Zhi’er understood.
She couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
These small magical creatures were made of ordinary demonic qi, so they were quite weak.
Other than being able to run errands or deliver messages, they weren’t all that resilient.
Bai Zhi’er reached out and gently stroked them, transferring some spiritual power to them.
With the help of an immortal, they naturally soon felt completely refreshed.
A few small magical creatures, like stacking dolls, jumped onto the table with a bounce.
They held hands and bowed to Bai Zhi’er, thanking her for her help.
Bai Zhi’er smiled with arched brows: "So cute!"
"Were you caught in the rain when helping me send my uncle home last night?"
The creatures suddenly remembered their discovery from last night and began chirping away noisily.
Bai Zhi’er heard the clamor but roughly understood.
She widened her eyes: "Are you saying, you found someone who looks very much like Star Lord Yuan Qing, walked into a dilapidated temple, and then vanished?"
The small magical creatures nodded in unison.
Bai Zhi’er furrowed her brow.
It seems, her previous sighting of Star Lord Yuan Qing wasn’t an illusion at all!
She had already destroyed his primordial spirit, how could he appear again?
"Does Brother Ce know about this?" she asked.
The small creatures shook their heads.
They indicated that they only returned to the Marquis Mansion this morning for tracking purposes.
Originally planning to wait here for the Marquis to return, they felt sick and uncomfortable after getting rained on and huddled together in a corner shivering.
Bai Zhi’er patted each of their little heads in turn, encouraging them: "You did well."
"If you notice anything like this again, and can’t find Brother Ce, you can tell me first."
At this point, a maid’s voice came from the entrance: "Has the Princess woken up?"
Bai Zhi’er turned to speak with the maid.
A few of the magical creatures seized the opportunity to exchange glances, quietly chirping their debates.
[Shouldn’t we report to Lord Demon instead of her?]
[It’s appropriate; after all, she is Lord Demon’s most beloved demon pet.]
[We must show respect, utmost respect!]
After making up their minds, the magical creatures planned to follow Bai Zhi’er closely in the future.
Standing at the doorway, Bai Zhi’er listened to the maid say: "The Marquis is cooking, making chicken noodle soup for the Princess."
"The noodles need to be timed perfectly to put into the pot, so I’m here to check if the Princess has woken up."
"Since Your Highness is awake, I’ll inform the Marquis."
Bai Zhi’er couldn’t help but ask: "Is Brother Ce cooking personally again?"
The maid smiled mysteriously, not forgetting to whisper: "The Marquis has been asking the kitchen servants about several dishes, all of which are said to be the Princess’s favorites."
This time, Bai Zhi’er followed the maid to the kitchen.
At the kitchen door, she quietly peeked inside.
Sure enough, Feng Fuce was under the kitchen servant’s guidance, slicing egg ribbons.
The maid went inside to deliver the message, and the kitchen servant then placed the prepared noodles into the pot.
The aromatic chicken soup was dotted with a few cute mushrooms.
When Feng Fuce lowered his head to slice the egg ribbons, his sleeve hadn’t been properly rolled up and fell down from his right elbow.
He had no intention of managing it, but at that moment, a small pale hand reached over to help him roll up the sleeve again.
Bai Zhi’er batted her dark eyelashes, playfully saying beside him: "Marquis, do you need a little helper?"
