Chapter 160: It's fine if you like it. Everything is up to you.
Mu Huayan received the message from Feng Yichen, so she came all the way to his room, but for some reason she didn't dare to knock on the door. She just felt very upset. After trying to calm herself down and was about to knock on the door, Feng Yichen opened the door before her.
"Master..."
"Why didn't you knock on the door when you came? Are you feeling unwell?" Feng Yichen noticed that something was wrong with her face, so he put his hand on her forehead.
Seeing that he was holding the star plate in his hand, Mu Huayan changed the subject and asked, "I, I'm fine. Is there a solution to the star plate?"
He nodded and took her hand and walked into the study. The warm touch from his palm made her sober up. "Then after solving the secret of the star disk, will there be hope to close the starlight?"
Feng Yichen nodded and injected his spiritual power into the star map. The star map was dotted with red and blue spots of light, and then a picture appeared in the air.
"This is! The ancient mythical beast Qilin!"
"How could there be the aura of a divine beast in the star disk?!"
Feng Yichen shook his head, not knowing what was going on. When he withdrew his spiritual power, the divine beast walked out of the picture. After circling around the two of them for a long time, it seemed to sense something and touched Mu Huayan's forehead.
A sword in her body was summoned out, the sword body glowing with a fiery red light. The mythical beast Qilin kept making soft calls upon seeing this, and was extremely excited as if it had resonated with the sword.
After a while, the sword returned to Mu Huayan's body on its own, and the Qilin turned into a beam of light and returned to the star disk.
"Master, why can't I comprehend this sword?"
Feng Yichen said nothing but continued to study the star map with his head down, leaving her standing there alone in a daze.
Finally, she simply sat across from him, leaning on the table and looking at him, "Master, this is the first time we sit face to face and talk."
"Ah."
"Master just now..."
"Put your hand here."
She hesitated for a while and then reached out her hand. He held her hand and placed it on the astrolabe, but there was no reaction. "Master..."
"Release spiritual power."
"Oh."
As the spiritual power was absorbed into the star disk, it began to shake. The two of them sensed that there was a powerful energy constantly stirring inside the star disk, as if something was about to burst out of it.
"The divine beast Qilin!!"
Mu Huayan raised her eyes and saw Feng Yichen's cold eyes, with no emotion on his face.
She muttered, "Anyone who becomes your immortal partner will be suffocated to death!"
A weak voice sounded from the star disk, and the tone was very unhappy, "Let this beast out! It's almost crushing me to death..."
"Who are you?" Mu Huayan teased it deliberately.
"You all saw me just now,"
"Then why didn't you say anything just now?"
"That was my afterimage just now, you stupid woman!"
Mu Huayan was very unhappy when she heard this, and released a lot of spiritual energy into the star disk. Qilin sensed her anger and instantly became timid, "Immortal, Immortal Lord, I, I know I was wrong, please, please let me go!"
"Okay, I'll let you out when I'm in a better mood."
Feng Yichen raised his lips for a moment, then he waved his hand and released the Qilin. Mu Huayan took his arm and pointed at the star disk, "Master, why did you let it out!"
Then a small red and blue Qilin appeared in the air, with a pair of red wings flapping non-stop. It then angrily waved its short and small hands at Mu Huayan, but she grabbed its neck forcibly. She reached out and poked its forehead, "So this is what a Qilin looks like! Hahahaha."
"You, you let go of this divine beast, if you can, I will fight you in single combat!"
"So silly and cute! And so adorable."
Feng Yichen looked at her lovingly, "Do you like it?"
When he saw her nod, he said, "Then it will be your sacred beast from now on."
"No, no, this divine beast wants to go back to the star disk."
Mu Huayan shook it with disdain, "Master, I don't want it, but... the sect is in need of a guardian beast! Bingluo has gone back to Cangmi Sea, so why not..."
"It's fine if you like it. Everything is up to you."
“A guardian beast! I am a Qilin. How can I condescend to be a mere guardian beast?”
Before it could continue to resist, Feng Yichen signed a contract with it, "This, this divine beast is finished!"
Qilin sat slumped on the ground with a look of despair on his face, but suddenly it seemed to remember something and became energetic again. Just when it was about to touch Mu Huayan, he took it back into the sea of stars.
"Master, without the power of Qilin, this star disk can no longer open the space crack."
"How should we explain this to Ye Yunhuai and the others?"
Before he could say anything, the Qilin jumped out and said proudly, "It's a blessing for them to be able to accompany this divine beast for so long."
As soon as he finished speaking, he wanted to run to Mu Huayan, but Feng Yichen grabbed his tail and put it on his shoulder. Qilin snorted in annoyance.
"Just tell them the truth."
"Besides, it is my freedom to stay wherever I want!"
"I'm curious about how you got to this star plate? After all, you are an ancient mythical beast!" Mu Huayan kept poking it, and accidentally fell down. Its four claws danced back and forth, and finally it grabbed the corner of Feng Yichen's clothes and climbed up.
"You think I want to stay? I was forced."
"The star disk comes from another world, and you are in the star disk, so which world's Qilin are you from..."
It cleared its throat and said, "I don't know either!"
"..."
"But I had been sleeping in the star disk before and had never awakened. The first awakening was because of the energy of the star!"
After saying that, it yawned and fell asleep. "Hey, I still have some questions for you."
But all I could hear was its snoring.
Mu Huayan handed Qilin to Feng Yichen, "Master, do you think the closure of Xingxuan might have something to do with it?"
He nodded slightly.
Mu Huayan was about to turn around and walk out of the room, but she found Mu Qing and Zhong Siyao crouching and looking into the room. "What are you guys looking at?"
They only reacted when Mu Huayan spoke, and they all straightened their bodies and smiled, "Senior Sister, we're here to see the fun."
"No, Sister Mu, we are here..." Before she could finish her words, Mu Xi covered her mouth, and then several people left the room.
"Senior Sister, we are going to practice and will not disturb you anymore." Mu Xi leaned back and added.
Mu Huayan glanced back at Feng Yichen and saw that he was sitting with his eyes closed, so she left the room, "Mu Xi, wait for me!"
After she found Ye Yunhuai, she told them the truth and said that they had hope of returning to their original world.
"Sister Mu, it's been several days, and Wen Qi still can't... use his spiritual power."
Mu Huayan thought for a while and then left the place. Zhong Siyao looked at Mu Xi and the others in confusion, "Senior Sister is always like this, coming and going without a trace, just get used to it."
"You have been following us, but are you going to join the sect or not?" Mu Qing said unhappily.
"Um... Well, I remembered that there is still a technique that I haven't mastered yet, so I'll leave first."
"Zhong Siyao!!"
In Cangfeng Valley, Wen Qi was trying to mobilize the spiritual power in his body again, but it didn't take long before it suddenly deflated like a balloon.
He was so angry that he punched the stone wall, "It's been so long, why is it still..."
"Wen Qi, follow me." Mu Huayan quietly appeared behind him and saw the scene.
"Senior sister, please help me find out what's wrong. I can't..."
Mu Huayan did not reply to him, but pulled him out of the valley and in an instant they arrived at the place where the Hundred Flowers Banquet was held. "Wen Qi, you need to rest now. Calm down, forget everything and relax."
"I'll pick you up in a few days."
Before he could open his mouth, many disciples with smiling faces gathered around him and pulled him away.
Mu Huayan smiled, waved her hand and disappeared.
