“Alright.”

Cheng Guang turned around and his gaze fell on the distance, in the direction where the Taihao Sword Sect was located.

He propelled the Flying Boat towards the location of the Taihao Sword Sect.

……

Taihao Sword Sect.

Cheng Guang had left just a while ago.

…

While chatting idly, Ning Qianxue and Granny Qianhua began to worry about Cheng Guang.

Granny Qianhua said with a smile, “Qianxue, I can’t always hold onto you, you should spend more time with the Princely Heir.”

Ning Qianxue shook her head and smiled, “The Princely Heir went to pack up his luggage, I can still spend more time with you for now.”

“Otherwise, the time I can spend with you in the future will be less and less.”

Granny Qianhua nodded with a smile.

Just as Granny Qianhua was about to say something else, her eyebrows suddenly frowned, and she couldn’t help but let out a soft ‘huh.’

“Huh?”

Granny Qianhua frowned a few times, seeming a bit unsure. Her gaze couldn’t help but lift, looking towards the direction of Ning Qianxue’s small courtyard, where Cheng Guang was staying.

Seeing Granny Qianhua looking like this, Ning Qianxue also felt a bit puzzled, “What’s wrong, Granny?”

Granny Qianhua heard Ning Qianxue’s voice, first furrowing her brows slightly, then she shook her head and smiled, picking up the cup of tea beside her and gently sipping.

“It’s nothing.”

Ning Qianxue, hearing Granny Qianhua’s words, showed a slightly suspicious expression on her face.

Based on Ning Qianxue’s understanding of Granny Qianhua, she definitely had something on her mind.

She just didn’t want to tell her, so she wasn’t telling her.

Though Ning Qianxue knew that Granny Qianhua was hiding something from her, she was very sensible and did not ask further.

If Granny Qianhua wanted to tell her, she would eventually find out.

If Granny Qianhua did not want to tell her, Ning Qianxue knew that even if she asked, it wouldn’t be of much use.

Ning Qianxue was very open-minded. After casting a few curious glances at Granny Qianhua, she started chatting about other matters.

The topics were varied, but as they talked, the conversation invariably drifted towards Ning Liang.

Initially, the atmosphere was quite pleasant, but as they talked about Ning Liang, it became somewhat somber.

Both Ning Qianxue and Granny Qianhua felt a sudden surge of melancholy when they talked about Ning Liang.

They remained silent for a while.

Just when Ning Qianxue was about to get up to leave, intending to bring Granny Qianhua to find Cheng Guang, the Princely Heir of the State, to have some dinner,

Granny Qianhua suddenly looked up towards the distance.

“Is he back?”

Granny Qianhua muttered to herself, a trace of surprise and some relief appearing in her aged eyes.

Granny Qianhua slowly exhaled, as if she had let go of a heavy stone in her heart.

Ning Qianxue heard Granny Qianhua’s words and had not yet reacted.

“Back? What’s back?”

Ning Qianxue had just finished speaking when she recalled Granny Qianhua’s earlier peculiar behavior.

Ning Qianxue was not a foolish person, and she quickly realized something. Her bright eyes looked at Granny Qianhua, her lips slightly pursed.

“Granny, did the Princely Heir just leave?”

Granny Qianhua, hearing Ning Qianxue’s words, just smiled and did not answer her.

But by just seeing Granny Qianhua’s demeanor, Ning Qianxue could guess the general situation.

It seemed that Granny Qianhua had noticed that the Princely Heir was suddenly not in the Taihao Sword Sect, but she did not know where he had gone. To prevent herself from worrying needlessly, she chose not to tell her.

What.

Am I really a person who likes to overthink?

Ning Qianxue, feeling a bit unhappy, stood up and walked outside, looking around the sky.

But she did not see any movement.

Granny Qianhua had just mentioned he was back.

But Ning Qianxue did not see the Princely Heir at all.

Ning Qianxue, puzzled, looked around a few more times, then turned her head to look at Granny Qianhua.

“Granny, I didn’t see the Princely Heir.”

Granny Qianhua directed her gaze into the distance, raised her hand, and pointed towards a distant courtyard.

“He’s in the courtyard.”

Granny Qianhua had just finished speaking.

Ning Qianxue could not wait any longer, hurriedly lifted her skirt, and ran towards the distant courtyard.

Ning Qianxue was a bit angry now.

It wasn’t that she was angry at Cheng Guang for suddenly leaving.

Rather, she was a bit upset that Cheng Guang had left suddenly without telling her.

Where had Cheng Guang gone?

Could it really be to the Huashan Sword Sect as Granny had mentioned earlier?

Thinking of this, Ning Qianxue’s brows were clouded with concern, and she quickened her pace.

Granny Qianhua stood behind Ning Qianxue, watching her haste towards the courtyard where Cheng Guang was, couldn’t help but chuckle and shake her head.

“The person is already back, what is this child so anxious for?”

Granny Qianhua muttered, then slightly lifted her pace, following behind Ning Qianxue towards Cheng Guang’s location.

As she walked.

Granny Qianhua’s mind also couldn’t help but ponder.

When Princely Heir Cheng Guang had left, Granny Qianhua herself had not noticed at all.

Later, when Granny Qianhua thought of Cheng Guang, she used her thoughts to scan around and discovered that neither Cheng Guang nor his accompanying maid, Qing Luan, were in the courtyard.
