After Shui Qinan said goodbye to him, she returned to the tavern. She had been busy underwater for a while and had expended a lot of spirit energy. When she returned, the first thing she saw when she entered the inn was Chang Ruo's resentful gaze. Shui Qinan also felt that it was a bit embarrassing, she didn't greet him when she left. Chang Ruo, I was wrong! "

Seeing that her expression was truly tired, although Chang Ruo felt angry in her heart, she still felt sorry for Xue Ji and knew to let her go back and rest first. Shui Qinan returned to her room and rested on the bed.

A few days after Yin Huaqing left, he suddenly and soundlessly appeared in Shui Qinan's room in the early morning. Yin Huaqing's expression was very tired, but he still held onto an egg very carefully. Yin Huaqing carried the egg and gently walked to Shui Qinan's bedside. Looking at her sleeping eyes, his exhausted face couldn't help but reveal a gentle smile.

Yin Huaqing placed the egg beside Shui Qinan, touched the hair on Shui Qinan's forehead deeply, and then quietly left.

The moment Shui Qinan woke up, she felt a familiar aura around her. When she opened her eyes, she saw Xiao You's egg; she was stunned for a moment, then, with some fear, she carefully touched the egg's shell with her hand. She felt the warmth from her palm, and tears immediately flowed down. Shui Qinan excitedly pulled the egg into her embrace, closed his eyes, and quietly enjoyed the joy of recovering from the loss. After a while, Shui Qinan came back to her senses, hugged the egg and opened his eyes, quietly thinking, why did Yin Huaqing only put Xiao You down and leave?

The egg seemed to have felt Shui Qinan's spirit energy and released waves of light. Shui Qinan happily looked at the egg and could vaguely see Xiao You's petite figure sleeping inside the egg like an unborn baby.

"Xiao You, don't be afraid. Mother will help you recover very quickly." Shui Qinan gently caressed the eggshell, her eyes filled with love. It was as if Xiao You who was inside the egg had also sensed Shui Qinan and released waves of gentle light. Shui Qinan looked at the egg in front of her with a smile, shook her head and said, "It really is a treasure."

Because Xiao You had fallen into a deep sleep and had never woken up. And right now, Shui Qinan suddenly felt a life force, Shui Qinan took out his Nine Heavens Pagoda and used her consciousness to check on the situation of the Nine Heavens Pagoda, only to see her body was covered with a layer of soft light, his expression was extremely comfortable.

Shui Qinan kept the Nine Heavens Pagoda and poked her egg: "What a good master, worrying about your own Spirit Beast."

The light on top of the egg gradually dimmed down. Shui Qinan placed Xiao You who had turned into an egg on the bed and said softly, "Rest well."

Xiao You's return greatly improved Shui Qinan's mood. Both Nangong Chu and Chang Ruo had felt the obvious change in her demeanor.

"Xue, why are you in such a good mood today?" Chang Ruo asked Shui Qinan who was eating breakfast. Shui Qinan looked up and glanced at Chang Ruo, and then slowly stuffed the bun into her mouth. "Am I that obvious?"

"Of course there is. Usually you don't have much of an expression on your face, but now there's a smile in your eyes." Chang Ruo said in an exaggerated manner, but Chang Ruo couldn't help but be curious, so she continued to ask: "Just what kind of thing is it, tell me."

"Xiao You is back." Shui Qinan said with a smile.

"So it turns out that Xiao You has returned … Xiao You is back? "Really?" He had been feeling guilty ever since Xiao You had been taken away by the Demon World, because if it wasn't for her not taking care of him properly, Xiao You wouldn't have been taken away by the Demon World either. Now that Xiao You had returned, Chang Ruo felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders.

Chang Ruo was glad that Xiao You had returned.

"There's just one thing I don't understand." Shui Qinan said softly. Logically speaking, Xiao You should have brought him back, why didn't Yin Huaqing even say goodbye to her before leaving? Was she in a hurry to do something, or was there another reason? Moreover, she had already reached the Heaven stage, yet he couldn't even feel someone entering her room!

Unless Yin Huaqing didn't want her to know that he had come, and thus deliberately hid his presence.

"What is it?" Looking at her good friend's heavy face, Chang Ruo asked.

Shui Qinan shook his head and said: "Nothing much, why are you not going back yet, you want to stay at my inn and eat and drink for free?" The half of the town at the bottom of the sea had collapsed and surfaced. The sea world was no longer an isolated island that could be connected to the outside world. She had already made Nangong Chu withdraw his barrier, built towns, and let the people of the outside world come in for trade.

"Do you really want to chase me away? No way, unless you tell me what you took out from the sea." Chang Ruo said with a smile, Shui Qinan raised his brows: "You want to know?"

"Yes, yes." Chang Ruo nodded with all her might.

"I won't tell you." Shui Qinan said innocently. After saying that, Shui Qinan summoned out her Nine Heavens Pagoda, and after that, she muttered some words. A faint purple light flashed, and Zi Luo appeared in front of Shui Qinan.

"Master." Zi Luo said respectfully.

"You aren't going to cultivate anymore?" Shui Qinan leisurely said. She was surprised that Zi Luo had such a rule today. It wasn't as if Zi Luo had always had no rule. Sure enough, after Shui Qinan finished speaking, Zi Luo let out a bitter laugh, "Ah, I still need to cultivate. It wasn't easy for me to come out for a trip …"

"I called you out for a reason. Do you recognize the way to Sherry City?" Shui Qinan asked indifferently, she tilted her head and thought for a moment before nodding: "Yes."

"Do you recognize Nangong Jin?" Shui Qinan continued to ask, but Zi Luo nodded her head with all her might, she knew Nangong Jin, but why did her master ask her about it? Zi Luo looked at Shui Qinan suspiciously, "Master?"

"Go check on Nangong Jin at the Sherry City." Shui Qinan instructed, after receiving the order, Zi Luo turned into a purple beam of light and flew towards the southwest.

"You don't trust Nangong Jin?" Chang Ruo asked.

Shui Qinan did not speak. She had a nagging feeling that if Nangong Jin hurried back to the Sherry City, something would happen.

A few days later,, who was bored to death and had yet to receive any news from the Mercenary Guild, was currently wandering within the Nangong Academy. At this time, Madam Ling and Ling Meier came over, and it seemed that Ling Meier's condition had improved a lot.

"Miss Shui." It turned out that Ling Meier had returned to the Academy today. Since Madam Ling was worried about Ling Meier alone, he accompanied her and came over.

Ling Meier shyly called Shui Qinan 'Aunt Shui' before running off.

"This child, but I don't know if she'll be shy too." Madam Ling said with a face full of smiles.

"How is her body? Has anything strange happened recently?" Shui Qinan asked.
