C59

The sixth month of the Hong Huang Kingdom had yet to enter the early summer.

In the northernmost prefecture of the Xiu Lan Continent, the prefectural city of Shang was especially sultry because of its geographical location. All the passers-by were wrapped in headscarves and white robes, and the good summer cantaloupe apricot fruits were robbed the moment they appeared. Chaxianyu, who was afraid of heat, could tell that the temperature was not low just by looking at the open sky.

In the afternoon, she finished her basic moves in Luo Rongji's room, and looked at the bright sunlight shining outside the window with a troubled face. It was so hot … He wondered if Fu Yao, who was riding on the wind in the pond, would feel uncomfortable …

Luo Rongji sat at the other side of the hall and silently wiped away the sword. Seeing that there were two plates of pastries on the table, Chaxianyu immediately became greedy, slipped down from the high chair and ran over and grabbed them. Luo Rongji opened his eyes, and stared at Chaxianyu with his deep red eyes, do you want to wash your hands?

Chaxianyu choked, and then violently coughed. Cough cough … Eh?! No, not washed …

The man with short hair that was as black as ink extended his slender hand and took away the dessert, washing it before doing it again.

Chaxianyu bitterly retracted her hand, her mouth was filled with food that she had not swallowed. I'm not a child, why do you have to do this to me …

Luo Rongji's movements paused, he turned his head, and remained expressionless. They were all adults who had been proposed to be married by the prince.

Finished, Chaxianyu cursed in her heart. Judging from her tone, posture, and dark face … Based on her long experience with Luo Rongji, she was a hundred percent sure that her master was unhappy.

She quickly took out a candy from the cloth bag she brought with her and squeezed to Luo Rongji's side. She sat properly and offered it to Luo Rongji with both hands. Please try it!

Luo Rongji moved to the side and away without showing any emotions.

Chaxianyu is persistent, Master! Sweet!

Luo Rongji glanced at her but did not make a sound. Not long after, he took the candy from her palm and elegantly stuffed it into the front of his shirt.

Chaxianyu laughed, wasn't Master angry at her disciple?

Luo Rongji felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Chaxianyu. He withdrew his wide sleeves and turned his face away.

I won't stay in the Shang Prefecture. Chaxianyu seriously added, the Second Prince of the Shang Nation... He is just a friend. I will continue to travel with Master, Young Master, and Master Wu until I find Guangye and meet Mother.

The man in black with the cropped hair and the neat, short, fluffy hair suddenly spoke up. If you were asked to marry in the next place, would you be so determined?

Chaxianyu was startled, after reacting to the meaning of the question, her face flushed red, ahhh … I think, I don't think there's going to be anyone else... Betrothal... "Alright …"

Luo Rongji was obviously not satisfied with his answer. Do you mean to say that if you didn't propose to stay?

The man's face was extremely ugly. He shook off Chaxianyu's hand, stood up and had his back facing her, then left with a gloomy tone.

Chaxianyu, who was kicked out of Luo Rongji's room, had a stupefied expression. She looked at his opened hands and then at the tightly shut door. He felt as if he had been wronged … Clutching his head, he tried to think which part of his words was wrong for his master. It was just a dessert, how could he lose his temper so easily?!

Master is too stingy …

The dejected Chaxianyu thought to herself, next time we meet, I should just give him a few more candies … This was an even thicker lesson – a sweet tooth, she really couldn't afford to offend this guy!

At this moment, the man in black sitting alone in the room was far from being as calm as he appeared on the surface. His fair fingertips tapped lightly on the table, and his entire face was filled with four large words.

He frowned, surprised and puzzled by his own unprovoked anger.

The four thousand years had allowed him to see through the small but fleeting ups and downs of the human world. The human nature had never been in his eyes, nor had it been affected.

He was used to watching everything, like a spectator watching a performance that has fallen into the cliché.

His heart was like ice that had been shackled by iron chains, full of ice that had yet to melt.

Luo Rongji recalled the first time he saw Chaxianyu and casually saved her. Outside the noisy street, even though there were several waves of people, he was still able to recognize the pair of eyes that were brimming with vigor with a single glance.

Dark and bright, with the same eyes as the Old Ancestor.

He only wanted to quickly confirm the young girl's identity without having time for anything else, so he had never given the young girl any face. In his heart, he only remembered one thing, and that was that the person the Old Ancestor told him to find had a great relationship with his future.

When he realized that everything matched well, he had a moment of happiness. From getting close to Chaxianyu to becoming her master, he believed that everything was as he wished. From then until now, Luo Rongji slowly realized that his mental state had started to change frequently. From his vague state of mind at the beginning to his current state of being, his heart had suddenly become difficult to control. It was obvious that he was calm and collected, but due to his mistakes, he would immediately turn black in the circus, even Shier Hong and Wu Zhiya couldn't control him, causing countless deaths. The miserable scene in the world was something he consoled himself with because the smell of blood was difficult to resist.

She handed herself a candy and was delighted.

She got angry when she was at a loss for a proposal.

The man closed his eyes, held his forehead and sighed. He muttered to himself, Luo Rongji, oh Luo Rongji, you have really lost your mind.

Stupid waiting outside was not an option. Seeing that the weather was hot, Chaxianyu was a little worried about the Mermaid's condition, so she ran to the side of the pool to check on Fu Yao and Fu Feng.

Not long after Fu Yao woke up, the injuries on her body and heart had mostly healed. In order to heal them faster, the brother and sister brother let out from Wu Zhiya's Golden Spell Ball and rested in the open-air pond that Shang Tianxuan arranged for them. Seeing that the azure-dressed girl had hopped over, the mermaid was obviously very happy, Miss Yu! Are you coming to see us?

Chaxianyu laid on the side of the pool, affectionately holding Fu Yao's hand, your wounds healed even faster than they did a few days ago, it looked like you will be able to go home soon!

From the cold and clear water, a body covered in pure white reed hair suddenly appeared, and swam over happily. Thanks to Miss Yu's request to His Highness Shang Tianxuan, when he came to visit us yesterday, he promised that once Elder Sister has fully recovered, he would send someone to escort us back to Jade Sea.

Fu Yao's eyes were slightly red, she tightly held onto Chaxianyu's hand, her pitch black hair covering the entire area of the water, her beautiful eyes were sparkling and translucent like gems, her red lips were slightly opened, her voice trembling uncontrollably, she did not know how to thank you … Miss Yu, if you have anything you want to help with, just say it, me and Fu Feng will definitely help out.

After he finished speaking, a huge blue transparent tail of a fish rose high into the air, splitting apart the water ripples and lifting up a curtain of water. Under the illumination of the sunlight, Chaxianyu could clearly see that in the middle of the fish tail that was revealed was an enormous white pearl.

Fu Yao nodded to Fu Feng, then indicated for him to take it off.

Fu Feng swam over obediently and took down the half face sized bead in the middle of the fish tail, gently placing it in Chaxianyu's hand with a smile on her face. Miss Yu, the merfolk have always had a clan rule: a pearl formed from the tears of pain, must be gifted to those who are close to it.

Chaxianyu looked at the warm pearl, then looked at the mermaid who was looking at her with a smile on her face. I can't take...

Fu Yao pressed Chaxianyu's evasive hands, and gently hugged her. The mermaid's hug was moist, soft, and slightly cold, and her voice was also soft. Take it, Fu Feng and I's lives were saved by you. You are the most important person to me, Fu Yao, in my life.

As the night descended, Chaxianyu bid farewell to the mermaid. Before she left, Fu Yao suddenly remembered something and pulled on Chaxianyu's sleeves. Miss Yu, last time I heard Fu Feng say, you want to go to Guangye?

Chaxianyu squatted down and explained her purpose for coming here in detail. It was only then that Fu Yao realized to her astonishment that the little girl in front of him who had the guts and knowledge was actually the first princess of Hong Huang Kingdom.

So that's how it is … Princess wants to find the Phoenix Empress … Fu Yao pursed her lips and thought for a moment, then conversed with Fu Feng using the mermaid language for a while, then said something serious to Chaxianyu who was on the shore. However, I heard that in the Barbarian Kingdom in the Western Regions, the Jidao Kingdom, before their demise, they went to the spiritual land where the immortals roam to obtain a treasure. After that, they have been secretly worshiped in the depths of the palace … That treasure was an ancient painting scroll that contained a mysterious power. It was said that the painting was painted by the first clan leader of the tea clan, the 'Tea Monarch', four thousand years ago.

Fu Yao thought that since the Phoenix Empress came from the Tea House, she was also related to the Sacred Land, Guangye. If Miss Yu made a trip to the Western Regions to obtain victory, would she be able to discover something …

Fu Feng blinked and rubbed his chin as he thought. He slowly said, "Big sister …" When the phoenix was depicted in the tribal totem four thousand years ago... I remember it was called... Vermillion Bird? Right! Vermillion Bird! He tapped his forehead in surprise and exultation. I remember now! At that time, the Vermillion Bird was one of the Four Gods of Heaven and Earth, a God Beast that worshipped the Primordial Spirit Beast, which was also the true form of the current Phoenix.

Fu Yao was shocked, she blurted out, Feng'er, are you sure? If the Vermillion Bird was referring to the current Phoenix, then the Phoenix Queen …

She took a deep breath, and the serious look on her face made Chaxianyu nervous. After a while, Fu Yao finally spoke to the girl in a serious tone. Because that painting... The name of the painting was the Vermillion Bird Emperor's daughter.
