Li Sui did not pay much attention to why Xuanpin's voice differed from before. After all, a hundred and eighty years had passed. It was perfectly normal for the voice to have changed a little.
Hearing that the other party knew what had happened, Li Sui was thrilled.
"Really? That's wonderful! Then take me to Great Liang now. I'll wait for my dad there. Oh, right, my dad needs Dragon Qi. We need to prepare lots and lots of Dragon Qi in advance, so we can help my dad when the time comes."
Yet upon hearing this, Li Sui saw the other party shake their head at her. "No. You needn't come along."
"Ah? Why not?! I want to go home!" Li Sui immediately grew anxious again.
She had struggled so hard to get this far, only for something to go wrong at the last step.
"You know too much, and your mind is not yet fully formed. If you return to Great Liang and speak carelessly, you will disrupt cause and effect. It is safer for you to remain in Daqi."
"I won't speak carelessly! I won't tell anyone! My lips are sealed," Li Sui repeatedly promised.
At that moment, Zuoqiu Yong walked over and rolled his eyes at Li Sui. "Tsk, tsk, you're just a little child. What do you mean, your lips are sealed? You nearly told every person you met along the way where you came from. Don't worry, I've sent someone to clean things up."
"You stay in Daqi. Follow Auntie properly, and Auntie will teach you well, so you won't be like a blank sheet of paper and get tricked by others."
"But—"
"No buts. Consider it for your father's sake. It's settled, then. I'll come fetch you in a hundred and eighty years."
