Shier Hong, who was sitting beside Chaxianyu, had his hair tied up in a long braid, and was lying lazily on the windowsill as he read the letters in his hands. Hearing Luo Rongji's words, Shier Hong's eyes, which were shining with a golden luster, squinted, "Master Luo, it's such a coincidence, this young master had also suddenly thought of someone, if my guess is correct, it should be consistent with Master Luo's thinking."

Chaxianyu was completely confused when she heard this. She looked at Luo Rongji, then looked at Shier Hong, who spoke in a neither slow nor hurried manner. Everyone who had participated in the inauguration ceremony of the Emperor Xun 20 years ago should think the same way.

Twenty years ago?!

Chaxianyu almost fell off from the Red Ripple. She was flabbergasted, her face filled with disbelief and astonishment. Her master's meaning was … Have you attended the Founding Ceremony 20 years ago?! But, my lord, you look... He was only in his early twenties …

Luo Rongji was noncommittal. He looked over and frowned as he said to Shier Hong. You still haven't told her anything?

Shier Hong shrugged his shoulders. Sorry, I don't want to mention any unnecessary things about you in front of my cute Yu Er.

Damn it? Old monster? Luo Rongji was still expressionless, but Chaxianyu could faintly see that the black gowned man's forehead was bursting with veins, and he shouted in his heart that the situation was not good. If they were to fight inside the carriage, the innocent horses would be blown away. She quickly stuffed a piece of the sweet cake in the small plate into Luo Rongji's hands. Master Luo! Please try it! Sweet! Delicious!

Luo Rongji silently ate the sweet cake, and his expression became slightly warmer. Chaxianyu could not help but be startled, could it be that Master Luo liked sweet food?

I'm not the old monster he's talking about.

Luo Rongji still crossed his arms, his back not touching the wall, and gracefully crossed his legs as he sat there. His dark red eyes reflected Chaxianyu's little figure, and after thinking about it seriously, he added.

I'm not hateful.

Chaxianyu wanted to laugh, but she didn't dare do so. She held tightly onto the center of her palm and nodded heavily in response to the serious face of the solemnly explaining Luo Rongji.

For some reason, my appearance would not change. I have maintained this appearance for many years. Furthermore, my soul power is special, so the impression I get from the outside world is that of an immortal, unfathomable priest with Hong Huang Kingdom closest to the gods.

Chaxianyu immediately revealed a look of admiration and adoration. Eternal youth, eternal longevity. Wasn't this the realm that the world had always been striving for? Now that the Master Luo had done it, the Yu Er truly admired him.

Seeing that Chaxianyu was looking forward to it, Shier Hong gave him a look, and Luo Rongji pretended not to see it, he turned his head, and said with a distant tone, "Don't worry, I am not a person who likes to talk too much, you can decide when to tell her your business."

Chaxianyu was suspicious, asking Shier Hong, Young Master? What is it that you want to tell Yu Er?

"I've also attended the inauguration ceremony of the new Emperor 20 years ago."

Shier Hong suppressed the thoughts in his head and smiled. I am not as powerful as the Master Luo, and I do not have soul power either. I did not want the Master Luo to say anything, but I was afraid that the Yu Er would hear too many things about the Master Luo and not want a useless master like me.

Chaxianyu laughed and poked Shier Hong. What did you say! The Yu Er was not that kind of person.

Shier Hong's expression showed a hint of sorrow for a moment, and was immediately replaced with a sloppy smile, mhm ~ Yu Er's words were extremely true. I overthought it.

Turning to the topic just now — Master Luo and I simultaneously thought of a man who was infatuated with each other, it was your royal father, Your Highness Emperor Xun.

Although it was impossible, if Yu Er could see the succession of Emperor Xun with her own eyes, maybe her impression of His Highness would greatly change.

The Hong Huang Kingdom and the Profound realm, Year 126, Mang Xia. The twenty-two year old Cha Chi appeared in front of everyone in a red robe during the opening ceremony.

He covered his face with golden silk and jade brocade, his long black hair reaching to the ground, and fresh white lotuses in his hair. With the support of a maid, he stepped into the hall and sat beside the throne of the Emperor Xun. From then on, he was sealed under the heavens.

It was said that the Empress hid her face because the Emperor Xun didn't want anyone other than herself to see the tiniest hint of the Empress Cha's alluring face, so the officials present that day only had the chance to catch a glimpse of the Empress Cha's slim figure.

Just by looking at the figure of the empress, the countless girls in the audience, the officials in the imperial court who disapproved of Emperor Xun's actions, or those who were pedantic or radical were all shocked without exception. In just one night, the mysterious and unique beauty of the Empress Cha spread across the entire prehistoric land.

According to the records of "The Hundred Wasteland, Ancient History", ever since then, the Emperor Xun had dispersed into its enormous harem during the reign of the late emperor, with only the Empress as its sole favorite.

On the birthday of the empress, Emperor Xun ordered 500 laborers to travel through the stars, wind and rain in order to build a Jade Crown Palace with Night Pearls that would shine every night just to make the empress smile.

For the sake of making an exception, he recorded the name of the empress into the annals of the ancestors of the previous emperors.

The Queen is exempt from all daily kneeling and bowing by exception.

An exception was made to allow the empress to attend court, to adopt her advice, and to issue new labour laws and food orders.

Chaxianyu was dumbstruck.

No matter what, she could not connect the cold and aloof royal father, who had never appeared in her heart, who had treated her as air for fifteen years, with whom Shier Hong had described as an emperor who was deeply in love …

Chaxianyu had mixed feelings for the moment, with all sorts of feelings mixed in, she muttered under her breath, Yu Er … How could she not know about all these …

Shier Hong comforted his as if he was patting her depressed little head, his tone was very gentle, like there was no problem. Yu Er had once said that he hadn't visited his in the palace for many years and didn't mind his only daughter at all. No one mentioned anything about it, but Yu Er naturally did not understand. This was very normal, so Yu Er did not need to blame himself.

Luo Rongji raised his arm, and suddenly interrupted. I have noticed it ever since we met in Zuo Mansion, Shier Hong, what exactly have you done now? The color of the eyes changed.

Shier Hong was stunned, eyes? What happened to my eyes?

Chaxianyu was also shocked. She raised her head, looked at Shier Hong's jade green eyes, quickly took out a small mirror, and held it up for Shier Hong to see, Young Master, did you not know? Your eyes will change from gold to green.

I have noticed it ever since the first time Yu Er met you. After waiting on you for so long, Yu Er realised that as long as you are in a good mood, the color of your eyes will change.

Shier Hong saw his own pair of deep green eyes, and was stunned for a moment.

He had thought that he would drag this boring body that had wandered around the world for a thousand years until it truly died.

Why was it that, at this point, the Heavens had begun to come up with a new proposition despite his muddleheaded state and being unable to control himself?

What message was this pair of eyes trying to convey?

Young Master, Yu Er thinks it's beautiful. Seeing Shier Hong's strange expression, Chaxianyu thought that he was unhappy, she anxiously grabbed Shier Hong's arm and revealed a big smile. Young master was the most special Master she had ever seen in her life, Yu Er liked young master's eyes!

At this time, Luo Rongji, who was sitting steadily opposite him, lifted his eyelids and gave Chaxianyu a cold glance. Is there anything in this world that you don't like?

Eh?

Luo Rongji closed his eyes and collapsed on top of his body. He stuck his arms behind his neck and turned his back, speaking lazily. Everything was good, everything was good, everything was good. Do you care too much about other people's feelings, and always try to please and flatter others? Do you not like yourself that much?

Even if you say that you hate them every now and then, no one will blame you. I don't know why you're doing this.

The sudden evaluation made Chaxianyu very helpless.

She stared blankly at Luo Rongji's cold back, her heart suddenly feeling sad.

That's right, why did he have to go through so much trouble?

He had always subconsciously put the other party's feelings first, always being afraid that he would not do well enough and offend others. He was afraid that the people who had stayed with him for so long would not like him and would leave.

Because no one had ever liked him. As time passed, he got used to the lack of affirmation. Slowly … He no longer liked himself.

Shier Hong raised his leg, peng! He kicked the collapsed seat of Luo Rongji who was lying on the opposite side and hugged Chaxianyu's shoulders. His golden eyes were sharp, and his tone was filled with displeasure.

Luo Rongji's lazy voice came out from within. If you, Shier Hong, were to only call this number two, no one would dare call yourself number one.

Chaxianyu was amused by the two of them chatting and spouting nonsense, and all the sadness in her heart immediately disappeared.

She raised her head and smiled at Shier Hong, "Young Master, Master Luo is right, please do not protect me!

I'm not a princess now, I'm just an ordinary woman who went to Hiroshima to look for her mother. I knew that this journey required me to grow, hone myself, and correct my mistakes. I still have a lot of things to learn, and a lot of shortcomings to correct, and I hope that the two lords will not be stingy in teaching me in the future.

After all, my greatest strength is my thick skin. Hey, hey, Yu Er wants to quickly grow, I hope the two lords can help him.

Luo Rongji's figure paused for a moment before he slowly turned around. His red eyes were dark and gloomy as he muttered to himself.

Hm?

Luo Rongji held onto his clothes, loosened his shoulders, and leisurely leaned against the round cushion. He took out the Yellow Paper Sect's scroll from his bosom with his lustrous white fingertips.

Chaxianyu was stumped. Uh, go, go to Guangye …

Guangye is existed in the wild history travel book, a thousand years has not been proven to be the real existence, is known as "Penglai Immortal City" of the city. Luo Rongji opened the scroll and knocked it on the surface, then said to Chaxianyu and Shier Hong: "We are now going to the Northern Desert."

Shier Hong frowned. Luo Rongji, what are you planning?

Luo Rongji was not in a hurry, I think Brother Xu has never heard of it, but when I was hosting at the Royal Academy, I wrote a set of National Grimoires, which had records on it-

Outside the world, there were immortals living in the vast plains of Panglei, leading spring water, the Northern Desert gave birth to sandbars, the Southern Wilderness was devoid of horse hooves. The national road is peaceful and healthy, the people live in a hundred ways, the present world is the same, the immortals are found.

Luo Rongji put away the scroll, his scarlet pupils surging with wind.

Because it was the first time he showed such excitement, at this moment, his eyes that had come from hell all of a sudden became extraordinarily bright.

His tone was firm and it was urgent. It was possible that he could even go to the Southern Wilderness and the Northern Desert. Therefore, we should first head north to the Northern Desert, and wait until we have enough clues, then we can adjust our route.
