Xue Xue snorted from its nose. Isn’t it very obvious? Is there a need to ask?
Seeing Xue Xue arrive, Yu Mo instantly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. However, he still had to do perfunctory work. “Xue Xue, the clan leader wants to go into Jishen Palace and meet the princess consort. Don’t cause trouble.”
Xue Xue licked its claws and bared its white teeth. It looked nonchalant and didn’t care about this.
It was clearly bent on blocking the door this time!
Baili Chun felt that it was extremely ridiculous! I am the Sky-Cloud Empire’s clan leader and could originally come and go from Jishen Palace freely. But today, I was actually stopped by a beast?! The world has changed!
An idea popped up in Baili Chun’s mind, and his gaze turned much colder. Anyone can tell who intended this. Rong Xiu clearly doesn’t want to let me in, and he even did it so openly—publicly! There are so many people watching below! Rong Xiu’s actions don’t give me any face at all!
Baili Chun’s face darkened, and he said, “Move.”
Xue Xue stretched and nonchalantly glanced at Baili Chun, not moving at all. Its meaning was more obvious than ever.
Yu Mo rushed up and looked like he was in a difficult spot. He looked at Xue Xue and then glanced at Baili Chun. “Clan Leader, this… You also know that Xue Xue has always had a stubborn temperament and won’t listen to anyone. I’ll apologize to you first! Why don’t you come back another day? You came out of seclusion today, and you should celebrate it grandly! Don’t be unhappy because of such a small matter!”
Yu Mo looked sincere. Even if he doesn’t consider us, he should consider the whole group of people at Tongshen Palace’s square that is looking at this scene in unison from below. Does he still want his face? If a commotion is caused, it won’t be good for anyone.
Naturally, Baili Chun didn’t want to make a big fuss about it.
What’s there to fight with a beast about?! However, it was also very difficult for him to take this lying down!
“Clan Leader, why calculate it against Xue Xue?” 36 Respected Elder Ming heaved a sigh of relief. He leisurely strolled up, smiled, and said, “The princess consort is in Jishen Palace. Can she escape? If you want to see her, there’ll be plenty of chances in the future! You’ve been in seclusion for a few years, and you finally came out today! It’s a happy matter! Yu Mo is right. No matter what, you must celebrate it properly! If not, let us tell you about the situation in the Sky-Cloud Empire and the God Residence Realm these few years so that the subordinates can prepare?”
He spoke personally in a sincere manner, which was akin to giving Baili Chun an out.
Hearing the sentence at the back, Baili Chun was tempted.
In such a short period of time, he did notice that the Sky-Cloud Empire had changed greatly. He desperately wanted to understand the current situation so that he could prepare himself mentally.
“His Grace hasn’t been around lately. There are many things awaiting your opinion.” 36 Respected Elder Ming smiled genuinely.
Baili Chun was determined, and his expression became much better. “Then… I’ll settle these matters first. As for…”
“As for the other things, we can talk about them another day!” He glanced at Jishen Palace. I don’t believe that this Shangguan Yue can be arrogant forever!
Seeing them retreat, Jiang Zhiyuan almost smashed her teeth. We’re already at the door, but we still can’t go in! There must be something wrong with that Shangguan Yue!
At this point, someone rapidly flew in from afar. “Big Missy Jiang, Fairy Water Mound has sent you a letter.”
…
Ling Xiao Academy, Fengmin Mountain.
Chu Liuyue was sitting on the thousand-year cold jade bed and silently flipped through the medicinal books in her hand.
A strange commotion suddenly came from outside. “Elder Meng! Elder Meng!”
Chu Liuyue recognized this anxious voice to be Elder Wen Xi’s. Why is he here?!
Chu Liuyue was curious and planned on getting up to take a look. However, she suddenly recalled that she was ‘locked’ up here, so it wasn’t appropriate for her to go out suddenly. Hence, she sat back down obediently.
Rong Xiu coincidentally came down from upstairs.
Hearing footsteps, she turned around and looked up.
The two of them stared at each other.
Chu Liuyue carefully sized Rong Xiu up and didn’t notice anything amiss. She felt more at ease and pointed outside. “Elder Wen Xi is here. He seems to be looking for Elder Meng urgently.”
Rong Xiu walked to her side and smiled slightly. “Don’t worry. Elder Meng will handle it.”
Chu Liuyue nodded.
As expected, Elder Meng’s voice sounded from upstairs. “Wen Xi, what’s so urgent?”
“Let me in first! I have to tell you this in person!” Hearing that the voice was amiss, Elder Meng opened the barrier and let Elder Wen Xi in.
Elder Wen Xi’s steps were hurried, and he looked anxious. “Elder Meng, it’s not good!”
He walked to the hall on the first floor and searched around. Then, he suddenly stopped. “Where’s Chu Yue?!”
At this point, Elder Meng’s figure flashed, and he had already appeared before Elder Wen Xi. “He’s gone to rest, and he isn’t here now. What issues do you have? Say it.”
Elder Wen Xi smacked his palm. “Aish! This kid is in big trouble!”
Upon hearing this, Chu Liuyue’s brows moved slightly.
Rong Xiu turned around and looked down.
“Why do you suddenly say this?” Elder Meng found it weird. “That kid has been in my place recently, and he’s fine. He didn’t do anything—”
“It’s the Flood-Desert Northern Region!” Elder Wen Xi furrowed his brows tightly. “I don’t know who is spreading news outside, but they say that the Flood-Desert Northern Region’s matters are done by Chu Yue in cahoots with Black Demon Hole. They even said that the true Heavenly Square Cauldron has long been with Chu Yue! Everything was just a scheme between him and Black Demon Hole!”
“This news has spread far and wide outside. Now, all the aristocratic families are requesting to investigate Chu Yue properly!”
