Chapter 1378 - 405: As Expected, Pregnant Women Are the Easiest to Please
The two continued to concentrate on observing the images on the screen.
They saw the Divine Beast man briefly clash with the Inspector, after which they both stood in mid-air, seemingly conversing about something.
Suddenly, the Divine Beast man turned and transformed into a golden light, escaping swiftly.
Su Minghe reacted quickly, immediately chasing after him, disappearing into the blood-red sky in the blink of an eye.
"What a pity..." the two sighed simultaneously.
Although aided by the Eightfold Sticker, Shen Hanyi’s Spirit Slash Realm Perfection Divine Sense could only sustain to this extent.
Shen Hanyi hurriedly adjusted the angle, trying to track Second Uncle’s movements, only to find that the blood-red grassland was already empty, with only endless red grass gently swaying in the wind.
She remained silent.
To be able to directly contend with the Inspector, that Divine Beast must be a Celestial Venerable Level existence.
It’s likely due to still unhealed injuries that he was forced to choose to escape.
She recalled the scene observed through the sticker last time — the senior showing flattery, roasting meat, and pouring wine for the Divine Beast, diligently massaging its back and shoulders.
It now seemed to further confirm that the senior, who managed to venture into the third level, was at least of Earth Supreme Cultivation.
Now that his support had fled, he naturally needed to hastily retreat as well.
As time ticked away, Shen Hanyi continued to control eight halos, scanning back and forth across the third level area.
Unfortunately, apart from the floating blood-red grassland, there were no other anomalies.
Until the time of a single incense stick passed, the eight halos gradually dispersed.
The two exchanged glances, and for a moment the atmosphere was somewhat stagnant.
"Well... let’s just let the matter of the Three-Flower Corpse rest," Zhou Qing broke the silence first.
Shen Hanyi whispered, "Perhaps it won’t take long for it to run back to the second level."
Zhou Qing could only nod, no longer persuading.
After all, once they meet face to face, everything will be clear.
"Senior, this junior has an impolite request!" Shen Hanyi suddenly bowed ninety degrees in greeting.
Ah, you’re pregnant, can’t you make your movements a bit smaller!
Zhou Qing instinctively wanted to step forward to support her, his gaze unintentionally glancing at her belly.
Then he suddenly remembered his current role, having to forcibly restrain his impulse.
"Stand up," he said with a touch of helplessness in his voice, "Just say what you need to say."
Shen Hanyi then stood up straight, hesitated for a moment before softly saying, "Senior, may I ask how this sticker is crafted? If it’s something the junior can provide, please don’t hesitate to ask."
Zhou Qing felt a warmth in his heart.
How could he not understand? She wanted to craft this item to go into the void to find him.
He sighed inwardly, looking at her silhouette with a complex expression, momentarily speechless.
"Haven’t you noticed," Zhou Qing began, "even a Celestial Venerable can’t detect our peeking?"
Shen Hanyi paused, suddenly realizing.
Indeed, no ordinary Magical Treasure could possess such mystique.
It seems the wonders of this sticker far surpassed her imagination.
"The junior was too presumptuous," she said with a bitter smile.
"It’s no matter," Zhou Qing feigned lightness, "When I can craft it again in the future, I’ll present you with one."
"Thank you, seni..." Shen Hanyi was about to bow again, but Zhou Qing quickly stopped her.
"How many times have you thanked me in such a short period? If you continue being so formal, it feels rather estranged," he joked with a smile.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, Shen Hanyi softly responded with an "Mm."
Silence once more enveloped the two.
"Since the Three-Flower Corpse is still in the third level," Shen Hanyi spoke again, "There’s no need to go to those perilous places. This time I’ve troubled you enough."
"A mere lift of a finger," Zhou Qing waved his hand, though his gaze unavoidably drifted again to her belly.
Shen Hanyi seemed to sense something, her body slightly pausing.
But she quickly returned to normal: "Senior, this junior will take my leave for now; let’s cooperate again next time."
Zhou Qing nodded, and the surrounding scene started to rapidly retreat.
When he regained his composure, he realized he had transformed again into a hazy red light sphere.
Shen Hanyi’s blue light sphere gently swayed in signal, then gradually dissolved into the chaos.
Zhou Qing also immediately exited the Divine Ruins Celestial Palace, suddenly opening his eyes wide.
He put away the Token, picked up the old hen by his feet, and once more activated the Flying Ship, speeding towards the Shen Family...
