Chapter 444: Thinking About When You Will Marry Me
Afraid that Chunyu Dong and the rest would discover him, Xian Jing could only leave temporarily.
However, he did not notice that after he left, Chunyu Dong suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction where he left.
“Senior Brother, what’s wrong?”
Seeing him turn back, Wen Yin also turned back in confusion.
However, there was nothing except darkness.
“Nothing.”
Chunyu Dong nodded lightly and continued walking.
“Aunt-Master, Uncle-Master, you’re back?”
When she saw the two of them, Lu Sheng hurried over.
She looked around and said to the two of them in a low voice, “Aunt-Master, Uncle-Master, it seems like someone came over just now and even touched the boundary. Thankfully, the boundary was strong and could not be broken.”
This boundary was set up by Shangguan Dian and Lu Zhou. It was a double boundary. Not to mention ordinary people, but even Sect Master Kong would have to spend some effort to break this boundary.
“Someone touched the boundary?”
Wen Yin frowned. “Where’s that person?”
Lu Sheng shook her head. “When Lord and I went over to take a look, we didn’t see anyone.”
“That person must have left by now.”
Compared to Wen Yin’s reaction, Chunyu Dong appeared much calmer.
Chu Sihan narrowed his eyes. “It seems like Lord Chunyu knows who it was?”
“Yes.”
Chunyu Dong nodded slightly. “If I’m not wrong, it should be Xian Jing.”
“Xian Jing?”
Wen Yin frowned. “Didn’t he and Xian Ya enter Purple Cloud Mountain to train? Why is he here?”
Chunyu Dong scoffed.
“They didn’t go to Purple Cloud Mountain. Instead, they came to Yong Fu Town in the human world.”
As he spoke, he pointed at the puppets who were still causing a commotion in the inn. “Those in the inn are the work of the siblings.”
Wen Yin could not believe it.
This was because the siblings had good reputations in the Five Peaks.
In addition, Xian Jing was now the Peak Master of Quiet Peak. Everyone in the Five Peaks respected him.
As someone from the Immortal World, the first thing they had to consider was how to help the citizens resolve their problems. Why did they harm the citizens instead?
“Why did they do that?”
Wen Yin thought about it and could not figure out why Xian Jing and Xian Ya did this.
“Junior Sister, do you think the siblings can defeat the entire Five Peaks with their strength?”
Although Wen Yin did not know why Chunyu Dong suddenly asked this, she still shook her head truthfully. “Of course not.”
Xian Jing and Xian Ya had high cultivation levels, but to deal with the Five Peaks was no different from throwing an egg at a rock.
Chunyu Dong said softly, “This is probably why they did this.”
Wen Yin’s heart jumped. “Senior Brother, you’re saying that they want to refine mortals into puppets to use them and deal with the Five Peaks?”
“Yes.”
Chunyu Dong said faintly, “Those rumors back then were not fake.”
After a long while, Wen Yin said in a low voice, “So, their parents were indeed killed because they betrayed the Immortal World?”
“Yes.”
Chunyu Dong nodded. “If not for them, the two Mythical Beasts, Zhu Que and Xuan Wu, would not have fallen into a long slumber.”
They wanted to rule the Five Peaks and become the Sect Master.
Unexpectedly, their scheme was exposed.
As they had caused the deaths of many disciples and some elders from the Five Peaks, as well as the two Mythical Beasts falling into a deep sleep, they were killed on the Immortal Vanquishing Platform.
“But their parents were the ones in the wrong. How could they have the face to take revenge?”
The siblings’ lives were proudly preserved because of the benevolence of the five Peak Masters and elders.
Not only were they not grateful, but they even wanted to repay kindness with ingratitude!
“No matter what, they’re their parents. It’s normal for them to have grudges, but…”
Chunyu Dong’s face darkened and he said coldly, “They shouldn’t have schemed against me.”
“Senior Brother… what do you mean?”
Wen Yin did not dare to think about it.
Lu Sheng explained on behalf of Chunyu Dong, “I heard that the people who framed Uncle-Master back then and said that he secretly cultivated forbidden techniques were those siblings.”
Fury arose in Wen Yin’s heart when she heard that. “It’s them?!”
She gritted her teeth and said angrily, “I’ll get even with them now!”
“Don’t be rash!”
Chunyu Dong stopped her and said softly, “Without evidence, it’s useless even if you confront them.”
“Then what should we do?” Wen Yin frowned. “Are we going to let them off just like that? Wouldn’t Senior Brother’s decades of grievances be in vain?”
Chunyu Dong smiled coldly. “Of course, we can’t let them off just like that. Regardless if it’s for harming me or the citizens, we can’t let them off.”
“How long do we have to wait?”
Those two people caused Senior Brother’s reputation to be destroyed in front of the people of the Five Peaks. They also caused her to be separated from Senior Brother for more than ten years. This score was not something she could not bear.
“Wait for Bailian to wake up.”
Chunyu Dong said calmly, “As long as we endure for two more months, the truth will be revealed then.”
“But…”
“Alright!”
Seeing Wen Yin’s retort, Chunyu Dong hurriedly interrupted her softly.
Seeing how aggrieved she was, he could not help but sigh and wipe her tears helplessly.
“Why didn’t I realize that you were so impatient in the past?”
“It’s all because of you, Senior Brother!”
Wen Yin wiped her tears and complained aggrievedly.
“Okay, okay. It’s all Senior Brother’s fault. Don’t cry. There are juniors here. Don’t you find it embarrassing?”
Wen Yin’s body stiffened. She finally realized that Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan were still watching from the side.
She hurriedly smiled awkwardly at the two of them. “Sorry for the embarrassment!”
Lu Sheng hurriedly waved her hand and said with a smile, “Aunt-Master and Uncle-Master don’t have to care about us. Just pretend that we don’t exist.”
Chunyu Dong smiled at her. “Your personality is much better than your master’s.”
“How is it that I have a bad personality?”
Before Lu Sheng could reply, an angry voice was heard.
She saw a slender figure on the empty ground.
Having been caught badmouthing others, Chunyu Dong did not feel embarrassed. Instead, he greeted the person politely. “Junior Brother, you’re here?”
Lu Zhou glanced at him indifferently.
When Wen Yin saw this, her anger towards Xian Jing and Xian Ya temporarily dissipated.
She looked up and covered her smile.
She had not seen her fellow Senior Brother and Junior Brother bicker for a long time.
Now that she saw them, it was as if this had happened yesterday.
“I said you have a bad personality. Why are you still unwilling to admit it?”
It was rare for the three of them to gather. Now that they were reunited, Chunyu Dong was in a good mood and had the leisure to tease his junior brother.
“Chunyu Dong, let me tell you. Don’t think that I can’t do anything to you just because Senior Sister is here.”
After warning Chunyu Dong, Lu Zhou looked at his disciple and asked, “Girl, you said that there was a strange phenomenon in the boundary. What happened?”
Lu Sheng explained, “Someone seemed to have touched the boundary just now, but it couldn’t be broken. Uncle-Master said that Xian Jing might have been here.”
“Oh?”
Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow and looked at Chunyu Dong. “How dare he come here with you around?”
“I just came back. I wasn’t here when he came.”
As Chunyu Dong spoke, he frowned and said, “I’m afraid that Elder Sen and Bailian might encounter some trouble.”
If Xian Jing knew that he was here, he might suspect that he had saved Bailian.
If Bailian wanted to recover, he had to recuperate in the source.
If Xian Jing and Xian Ya deliberately caused trouble, Bailian would probably not be able to recuperate well.
“Since it’s not safe at Green Peak, why don’t we bring him to Pure Snow Observatory?”
Chu Sihan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
“Pure Snow Observatory?” Chunyu Dong smiled and shook his head. “The other places can’t compare to where he was born.”
Chunyu Dong was actually a little curious. Chu Sihan was the highness of the Netherworld. Even if he had been reborn as a human, he shouldn’t be so ignorant.
“I’ve been to Pure Snow Observatory before.”
Chu Sihan said coldly, “If I’m not wrong, the State Minister should have moved his original body to Pure Snow Observatory.”
Chunyu Dong was stunned.
Lu Zhou suddenly realized something and said, “No wonder there were always spiritual energy fluctuations in Pure Snow Observatory. It turns out that he had moved his original body to Pure Snow Observatory!”
The State Minister’s original body was a lotus flower and his original body was that lotus.
Lu Zhou smiled faintly. “I have to say, Brother Bailian has good foresight.”
He looked at Chunyu Dong and said, “Quick, inform Elder Sen to send Brother Bailian to Pure Snow Observatory as soon as possible.”
Chunyu Dong finally understood.
He knew it. How could the mighty highness of the Netherworld be so ignorant? Chu Sihan had long discovered this.
“Lad, why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Lu Zhou frowned at Chu Sihan and spoke disapprovingly.
Without his original body, it was useless even if the State Minister returned to Green Peak to recuperate.
Wouldn’t this be a waste of time?
Chu Sihan smiled bitterly. “I just remembered.”
If Chunyu Dong had not mentioned it, he probably would not have remembered.
When Lu Sheng heard that, she tsked. “No wonder the entire capital was covered in ice and snow back then. The place where the State Minister lived was as warm as spring and filled with flowers. Moreover, I remember that the lotus flowers in the pond were still wrapped around my wrist.”
Lu Zhou frowned. “Why didn’t you mention this before?”
“I thought that this was how immortals lived.”
She did not think too much at that time. She only felt that the reason why that place was warm was because the State Minister used magic power to maintain it.
Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow. “You’ve lived with me for years. Have you seen a place like this in winter?”
“No.”
Lu Sheng replied softly.
Chunyu Dong smiled faintly and hurriedly took out the Communications Talisman to contact Elder Sen.
On the other side, after hearing this, Elder Sen was suddenly enlightened. “No wonder his face is still pale even though I placed him in the lotus pond.”
Chunyu Dong said calmly, “Bring him to Pure Snow Observatory quickly. No one should know about that place.”
On the other side, Elder Sen replied softly before falling silent.
Chunyu Dong kept the talisman and asked Lu Zhou, “Where’s Master?”
“Oh?” Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows and sneered. “He’s not here now, but you can address him so smoothly.”
Chunyu Dong sighed helplessly and looked at him silently.
“He’s refining pills in the inn with Ah Dian. If you have nothing to do, you can return to the inn to help Ah Dian and protect Master.”
Chunyu Dong nodded. “Junior Brother is right.”
He looked at Wen Yin and said, “Junior Sister, let’s go and protect Master.”
“Okay!”
Wen Yin smiled sweetly and said to Lu Zhou, “Junior Brother, we’ll go over first.”
“Oh.”
Lu Zhou glanced at them and said lightly, “Go quickly.”
After the two of them walked away, a smile gradually appeared on his face.
Seeing the change in his expression, Lu Sheng could not help but snort.
Lu Zhou’s smile disappeared and he snorted.
“Master, you obviously care a lot about Uncle-Master. Why do you always act like you don’t care?”
“I can do whatever I want. Why? Do you have a problem with that?”
Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows.
“I’ll look down on you if you do that!”
Lu Zhou was speechless.
Alright, he was despised by his daughter.
Chu Sihan took a step forward and said lightly, “Uncle-Master Lu, if you have nothing else to do, go back to the inn and help Sect Master Kong refine medicine.”
Lu Zhou was speechless.
Not only was he despised by his daughter, but he was also kicked out by his future son-in-law?
He raised his eyebrows and teased the duo. “Oh~ You haven’t married yet, but you’re already singing each other’s tune in front of the elders?”
No matter how thick-skinned Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan were, they could not help but blush when elders teased them.
“Master!”
Lu Sheng frowned and glared at Lu Zhou.
Chu Sihan coughed lightly, but his lips curved upwards unnoticeably.
“Alright, alright. I won’t disturb you anymore.”
Lu Zhou sighed softly and pretended to be disappointed. “Back then, you followed me wherever I went. Now that you have someone you like, you don’t like me anymore. Sigh! Women can’t be kept when they’re old!”
“Remember to guard the boundary well. Contact me if there are any abnormalities.”
Then, he walked away.
Lu Sheng stole a glance at Chu Sihan from the corner of her eye and realized that he was looking at her too.
She hurriedly averted her gaze and coughed lightly. Rubbing her nose, she asked, “Lord, are you hungry?”
“No.”
“Are you thirsty?”
“No.”
Chu Sihan raised his eyebrows. “You’re hungry?”
Lu Sheng shook her head. “No.”
Chu Sihan smiled faintly. “So you’re thirsty?”
She shook her head again. “No.”
Chu Sihan chuckled and stroked her black hair. His eyes emitted a faint red light.
He wanted to marry the girl earlier.
“What should we do?”
“What do you mean?”
Lu Sheng looked up, her watery eyes flickering with confusion.
“Nothing.”
Chu Sihan smiled and shook his head.
He suddenly regretted it.
If he had known that he would like her so much, he would not have broken off the engagement.
He should not have disregarded this marriage, let alone invited the county magistrate to a restaurant to discuss official business on the day of his wedding.
However, what could he do now?
It seemed like this girl was not prepared to marry him yet.
How long would he have to wait?
Forget it. No matter how long it took, he had to wait, right?
“Lord, what are you thinking about? Why are you so engrossed in your thoughts?”
Lu Sheng called out to him a few times but received no response. She hurriedly nudged his arm.
Chu Sihan was stunned before he regained his senses.
He chuckled and said, “Nothing. I was just wondering when you would marry me.”
“Lord!”
Lu Sheng glared at him. She pursed her lips and turned her head, but she was elated.
