Fragrance is good for purifying the heart

Chapter 118 Decision
Gardenia and Anhe strolled at the Shouhu Town market until noon before returning to the inn. They held hands and smiled. As soon as they entered the inn, they saw Bu Luoyan and several of her fellow apprentices.

Several people gathered around, and when they saw the two returning with smiles on their faces, their faces immediately darkened. Several people whispered: "I'm back, I'm finally back."

Bu Luoyan crossed his arms in front of his chest and strode towards the two of them. He scolded Gardenia with a dark face: "You still know how to come back? I advise you not to forget your identity, and don't just focus on the appearance of hanging around with the handsome boy. I went out to have fun, but I completely forgot about the important matter of escorting Yingya Gou, and I completely lost the face of your Jade-faced Immortal!"

"that is!"

"that is!"

Several fellow apprentices behind her also followed suit and did not show any weakness when they saw Bu Luoyan raising his troops to question the crime.

Gardenia just looked cold, but there was still a sneer on the corner of her lips, and she retorted: "Who am I going out with, and what do you want me to do? My master hasn't even said anything about escorting Yingya Gou, so why are you preparing to leave privately?" When the time comes, if something happens, don’t blame others?"

Her understatement and calm sarcasm made everyone in Bu Luoyan speechless.

Gardenia was right. When it came to escorting Yingya Gou back to Chixiao Road, everyone in Chixiao Road still relied on Beimian Immortal Lord and Taixu Mountain's group to escort him. Beimian didn't say anything, and Bu Luoyan and others couldn't. If something happens to someone who takes Shadow Fang Gou away without authorization, no one will be able to bear the responsibility.

Bu Luoyan raised her eyebrows and was about to say something else, but Ni Anzhi's voice came from upstairs, "Junior sister Gardenia, it's good that you are back. The leader wants us to go to his room to discuss the itinerary. Hurry up. Come up, I'll wait for you to go together."

He greeted Gardenia affectionately, and Gardenia responded, took An He's hand, and went upstairs in full view of everyone.

Gardenia left An He in her room at the inn. She had been planning how to settle An He, but she didn't know what his thoughts were, so she took advantage of Ni Anzhi's waiting time to briefly ask An He:
"Xiao An, you... what are your plans in the future? Do you plan to follow your sister, or..."

She has been thinking about trying to persuade Master Bei Mian to accept An He as his disciple again. Although she has not mentioned this to Master yet, she believes that as long as she sincerely pleads with Bei Mian, he might agree.

She vaguely remembered that she accidentally took Xiao An to Yuxu Sect last time. Taoist Master Bu Hongsuan took a fancy to Xiao An's good bones and wanted to accept him as his disciple. But at that time, Xiao An was still young and Gardenia was not very good. Don't worry, I refused.

Ni Anzhi has also reached the age of accepting a disciple, and he also mentioned that he could accept Xiao An as a disciple, but Xiao An himself was unwilling to become Ni Anzhi's disciple.

This matter may have to be considered from the perspective of Master Beimian.

She was concentrating on planning the future for Anhe, but she didn't want to hear him suddenly say, "I want to roam the Tianhe continent to my heart's content, and catch all the traitors and traitors on the Tianhe continent's list..."

Gardenia suddenly raised her eyes to look at him. Seeing the clarity and determination in An He's eyes, she sighed, "You... do you want to separate from your sister?"

Seeing the look of reluctance in Gardenia's eyes, An He reached out and shook Gardenia's hand. At least he suppressed the same reluctance in his heart, with a carefree smile on his face, "Sister, don't be so sad. She is no longer beautiful. If possible, Xiao An is willing to stay with her sister and never leave. But Xiao An needs to grow up and experience, and cannot always live under the protective wings of her sister..." He paused and pursed his lips again. She pursed her lips and touched Gardenia's face, "That Tao Qi was kidnapped under my nose. I have to continue to investigate this matter. Good sister, we will meet again soon. Xiao An promises , until the day I meet my sister again, Xiao An will stay by her side every day. My sister will never try to drive me away in this life. No matter how much hardship I endure, Xiao An will be happy."

He spoke seriously, with a bit of pleading in his expression, but also a bit of determination and stubbornness. Gardenia could only see his decision from his expression, but what she didn't know was that An He actually wanted to go more. With experience and growth, when one day he is qualified to stand beside Gardenia and protect her properly, he will definitely not leave.

Only he knew how difficult it was for him to make such a decision.He wanted to hug his sister and say that they would never be separated for the rest of their lives, even if he was a little more willful, but he couldn't.

"Have you really thought it through?" Gardenia asked Anhe again. This brother who had always been her follower is now taking the initiative to separate from her and go to the Tianhe Continent in this vast world. Is there any danger?

Although An He's martial arts can deal with many ordinary practitioners, if he encounters a monk, even a lower-level monk, An He's martial arts will not be able to deal with it.

Besides, he was on the Golden Ling List all over the place to capture the government's key criminals. Now Tao Qi, the middle-stage Jindan monk behind him, An He couldn't deal with them, so how could he take the initiative to send them to his door?
Gardenia was a little angry that Xiao An in her mind was not as obedient to her as before, so she asked An He to stay in the room. She went to find Ni Anzhi herself, and went with him to master Bei Mian's room to discuss.

"Escort Yingya Gou back to Chixiao Dao. Although the journey is relatively long and there are some dangers, there are 40 people between us and the people from Chixiao Dao. Even if we encounter the treasure hunter on the way, we don't need to worry. of."

In Beimian's room, Ni Anzhi talked about possible situations along the way, but Gardenia listened absent-mindedly the whole time. She only thought about Xiao An's decision, and she regretted that she was angry with Xiao An just now and didn't know that Xiao An was alive. Is she angry anymore?

She must recognize the fact that her Xiao An has grown much faster than ordinary children, and his mind and age have also grown up. Naturally, he needs independence and space to grow. However, she has planned everything for him and has no respect at all. His own decision.

Has her Xiao An grown up after all...

"Gardenia, are you listening to what I just said?" Bei Mian saw that Gardenia's eyes were empty and knew that she was distracted, so he knocked on the table in front of him unconsciously.

Only then did Gardenia come back to her senses. She blushed in embarrassment, pursed her lips and did not answer.

Ni Anzhi hurriedly helped her out, reminded her from the side, and repeated what Bei Mian had just said:
"After we escort Yingya Gou back to Chixiao Road, we will not immediately return to Taixu Mountain. We will also go to Jiyizhai and Yuxu Sect to discuss Yanying Palace's dealings with the other six sects."

Gardenia heard the words and nodded, but she was thinking about Xiao An again. So, can Xiao An still stay with her for a while? If we really want to separate, wait until she returns to Taixu Mountain...

Beimian, Ni Anzhi and others made final discussions and set off for Chixiao Road this afternoon.

However, when Gardenia returned to her room, she discovered that Anhe had disappeared.
