However, neither Emperor Beichen nor Heimu noticed a furry ball quietly rolling outside the door...
When Baili Hongzhuang returned to the room, she saw the three beast companions sitting in a row on the table, resting their chins in their hands, waiting for her.
Seeing this scene, Baili Hongzhuang raised an eyebrow, and a glimmer of light flashed in her deep, calm phoenix eyes. She pulled over a chair and sat directly in front of the three beast companions.
"What's the matter? Speak up!"
As soon as she saw the posture of the three beast companions, she knew they must have something to discuss. Having been together for so long, she understood them quite well.
"Master, when I went to find Heimu earlier, I overheard a conversation between Heimu and Emperor Beichen. It seems that Tian Gang Zong needs Emperor Beichen to return."
"However, because of your trial, Emperor Beichen has been staying here and hasn't gone back. Now, the urgency from Tian Gang Zong is increasing..."
Speaking, Xiao Hei's gaze inadvertently fell on Baili Hongzhuang's face, paying attention to her expression.
Hearing this, Baili Hongzhuang also slightly paused, unaware of such a matter. Emperor Beichen didn't tell her, and she didn't notice anything unusual.
Thinking about it, Baili Hongzhuang couldn't help but feel regretful. She had focused all her energy on the trial and had overlooked so many things.
Heimu had always stood on the side of Emperor Beichen and her. Since Heimu said so, it must mean that the situation in Tian Gang Zong was becoming urgent.
Emperor Beichen had been here with her all this time for her trial, and she hadn't realized how much he had done for her.
While her trial was important, the matters of Tian Gang Zong were evidently more important. Besides, the trial had always been here. Even if she took a few more days to participate, it would be fine.
Without hesitation, Baili Hongzhuang turned around and walked towards the neighboring room.
Emperor Beichen had done so much for her, and she couldn't let him continue to sacrifice for her. Tian Gang Zong meant a lot to Emperor Beichen.
The Sect Master had always been the person Emperor Beichen admired and respected the most. Entrusting Tian Gang Zong to Emperor Beichen was a sign of trust.
If Emperor Beichen felt regret because of her, it was something she would least like to see.
Emperor Beichen had always put her first, but wasn't she also wishing for Emperor Beichen's happiness?
Seeing Baili Hongzhuang leaving without saying a word, the three beast companions quickly jumped off the table and followed behind her.
"Knock, knock."
Baili Hongzhuang knocked on the door, and Emperor Beichen quickly opened it.
Upon seeing Baili Hongzhuang, Emperor Beichen's perfectly gentle and refined face revealed a hint of elegant and handsome smile.
"Wife, you're back."
Baili Hongzhuang nodded slightly, then walked into the room.
However, just as the three beast companions were preparing to follow inside, they discovered that the door had already been closed, leaving them outside!
Xiao Hei widened his eyes, staring at the closed door, "We've been blocked outside the room?"
Xiao Bai was also very puzzled. They had always followed behind their master, so why did their master leave them outside today?
"Did we do something to upset our master?"
White Lion lowered its head, looking a bit aggrieved. It gazed at Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai with its shining eyes and said sadly, "Is it because we eat too much?"
