"Stop right there!" Human Head spoke up crisply, cutting off True Venerable Qu before he could continue.
She said coolly, "I'll keep an eye on the treasures under his name for him!"
"If he's going to give me anything, he has to do it himself... Little brat, you're not qualified!"
"All right, I was being presumptuous," Qu Jianlei said with a slight nod, and he couldn't help sighing inwardly. No wonder those two had taken a liking to each other.
Both of them looked down on everyone the same way, with the same sky-high arrogance.
The next moment, the mysterious voice spoke. "Then I'll go notify them and see who's coming along?"
Qu Jianlei was dazed for a moment before he answered, "All right. Sorry to trouble you, little sister."
Taiyuan Sea's perception was now extremely sharp as well. "Did something happen again?"
"Nothing. Something good," Qu Jianlei answered casually, clearly a little distracted.
It really was something good. Jing Yuexin had discovered that the two separated sections of the Dao Stele had actually begun slowly drawing close again.
However, it was not the sort of rapid coming together where they instantly clicked. It was intermittent, as if hesitating over something.
Probably... because I'm not a Mysterious Venerable yet! Qu Jianlei had a faint realization in his heart.
In the face of such a major event, the lower one's cultivation, the greater the uncertainty in what one did.
If he were replaced by Senior Heng, perhaps those two halves would have stuck together in an instant.
If understood this way, the Dao Stele's reaction truly was worthy of the word Luck.
Still, Qu Jianlei was not in a hurry. Cultivation was something that had to be taken slowly. As long as the Dao Stele reacted, it was a good start.
