As Luo Qingci finished speaking, she furrowed her brow. Someone was already approaching.
Given the speed of the approaching person, Ruan Li and she would have no problem leaving, but with the strength of these eleven dragons being uneven and just having released the contract, it would not be easy to retreat unscathed.
Although they had already taken medicine, the dragon's aura had just emerged. The sudden appearance of more than a dozen unidentified people was indeed suspicious.
With this in mind, Luo Qingci spoke, "Ah Li, you go first. I'll handle them."
Ruan Li's expression changed, and she immediately refused, "No, I can't leave you alone here."
Luo Qingci wanted to explain the current situation, but Ruan Li wouldn't give her a chance. Turning to Yun Xuan, she said, "Someone's coming. It's likely they detected the dragon's aura from Six Wonders Pavilion and came to check. Yun Xuan, you take them and find a safe place in the Fufeng territory to wait for us."
Yun Xuan hesitated, "But what about you..."
"You are too conspicuous. It's safer for you to leave; it will be fine for us. Go quickly." She spoke firmly, and Yun Xuan could only agree and leave with the others first.
Ruan Li glanced at Luo Qingci, who then transformed into a small dragon and slipped into her sleeve.
"Knowing you're not well, how could I possibly leave you behind?"
Luo Qingci almost smiled, secretly instructing the system to mask their aura. She reached into her sleeve and patted Ruan Li's head, "You're getting more overbearing."
Ruan Li, feeling both dissatisfied and embarrassed, bit her finger, causing Luo Qingci to pause and take a deep breath.
"Be good, let go."
The bite wasn't painful but gave Luo Qingci an unusual feeling, causing her face to flush slightly.
As soon as she finished speaking, the mask on her face vanished, revealing her original appearance.
Just as Luo Qingci completed this, three figures landed in front of her.
The newcomers were indeed from the Void Sect and were old acquaintances: Nangong Jue, his second senior brother Luo Huan, and his master He Guang.
The three of them were clearly stunned upon seeing Luo Qingci. Nangong Jue, while surprised, felt an inexplicable relief and couldn't help but ask, "Lord Huai Bamboo? Are you... alright?"
Luo Qingci did not expect Nangong Jue to still be concerned about her. She nodded slightly, "I'm fine. Elder He Guang, Young Master, it's good to see you well."
He Guang saw a hint of complexity in her eyes, furrowing his brows as he asked, "How did you end up in Yunzhong?"
Luo Qingci gently shook her sleeve and said淡声道: "I am looking for someone."
She then raised her gaze toward Six Wonders Pavilion.
Previously, the fall of Luo Qingci and Ruan Li into the Abyss was known to the people of the Immortal Sect, and Nangong Jue had witnessed it himself. Hearing her words, he immediately realized something and said urgently, "You're looking for Ruan Li? Didn't you fall into the Abyss together? Is she not with you?"
Nangong Jue's concern for Ruan Li was noticed not only by Luo Qingci but also by He Guang, who couldn't help but glance at Nangong Jue and coldly said, "She is a dragon princess. You don't need to worry about her whereabouts and safety."
