"From the looks of it, once the trade convention ends, my situation probably won't be optimistic."
Su Shi'er sighed softly and turned to look at Mu Chengxue beside him.
Old Drunkard's reminder had made him feel immense pressure as well.
The joy of obtaining the Fish Dragon Grass through careful planning was instantly swept away.
"Not optimistic? When has your situation ever been optimistic?"
Mu Chengxue's faintly teasing voice rang out at once.
"What Senior says is true. No matter what lies ahead, I can only take things one step at a time."
The corners of Su Shi'er's mouth lifted slightly, and the trace of melancholy in his heart immediately vanished.
Just as Mu Chengxue had said, when had his circumstances ever been optimistic throughout all these years?
No matter what lay ahead, one always had to keep moving forward.
"You needn't worry too much either. As long as you can obtain the Moon God's token, I have a way to ask the Palace Master to act.
I can't speak for other places, but in this little patch of the Taiqing Star Region, our Moon Palace still has quite a say.
As long as the Palace Master acts, she will surely be able to help you resolve this crisis."
Standing to one side, Mu Chengxue continued her reminder.
Su Shi'er nodded calmly. "For now, this is the only way."
Though he said so aloud, what he truly pinned his hopes on was the Immortal Body Puppet within his Small World.
This item had originally been created to deal with Li Jiuyuan, the Evil Immortal of the Immortal Cultivation Holy Land.
Unfortunately, that Evil Immortal Li Jiuyuan had now vanished without a trace.
Su Shi'er had first encountered Demon God Xuantianjun, then been hunted down in the Azure Star Cultivation World
