C71

After Chaxianyu and the others left the Sleeping State, with the help of clues provided by the Mermaid, they circled around the Northern Desert's core city, the Shang Province, and headed towards the west. They were looking for the painting of the Vermillion Bird Queen, who might be related to the Phoenix Empress.

Are you merchants from the East? "Oh, you want to go to the west side of the mountain? If you want to go to the west side of the mountain, then you have to continue along this road …" After passing through a city called the 'Banquet Capital', they would arrive at the city gate after a few more days.

Chaxianyu thanked the fishermen on the reefs as she ran back to the side of the carriage in quick steps. Lying on the ground outside the window, she tilted her head and asked the man who was resting. Now that the sun is about to set, should we continue on our journey or take a break?

The white-robed man with long hair as fine as sand, and a jet-black hair that was so bright that it covered her shoulders, opened his eyes. He looked at the suspicious little head at the window, his golden eyes turned jade green in an instant, she raised her lips and laughed. The carriage Yu Er had been sitting on for so long, she must be tired of it. I heard that at night, the stars in this area are especially bright, and many caravans would be stuck in the middle of the night if they were to pass by. If you are interested, we will spend the night here and enjoy the vast starry sky of this world.

Chaxianyu jumped three feet into the air, her eyes was wide open as she laughed, and cheered, "Good, good!" I like the stars! She had only read about it in books and had never personally seen the entire starry sky before... Thank you, young master!

Mm, since I've decided to sleep in the wilderness, I should start preparing … Shier Hong scratched his chin and thought for a moment.

"Crash ~ ~ ~"

A pile of round wood was thrown at Chaxianyu's feet, rolling around in a mess, scaring the girl out of her wits. Where did this come from … A man with short, crisp hair and a black body and a long sword at his waist stepped out of the shadows of the trees, his beautiful eyes as red as fire staring unblinkingly at her. You, go fish.

Chaxianyu's face was full of shock, Master? How did you know to ask for firewood... Did you go to get firewood?

Luo Rongji shot a glance at her, and said coldly. What?

Chaxianyu shut her mouth obediently.

Wu Zhiya walked out from behind Luo Rongji, and took out a crystal clear washed fruit from his sleeve, and handed it over to him. Then another gust of wind blew away.

Chaxianyu rubbed her stomach. Sigh, she was really hungry. She happily accepted Wu Zhiya's offer, and with a gulp, she raised her head, her mouth filled with slurred words: "Master, are we going to eat fish tonight?" What else do you want to eat besides fish? And the Master Wu? Where's the Young Master?

The young girl's eyes were full of excitement. She wanted to try eating the wild boar? I'll call.

Hearing this, the bodies of the three men involuntarily trembled a few times. Shier Hong wanted to pull open the curtain and walk out, but just as he was about to get up, he heard the usually emotionless Wu Zhiya blandly say from outside the carriage, Pig, let's go.

Chaxianyu felt that it was too hard for Wu Zhiya to hunt alone, so she grabbed Shier Hong's sleeves and forced him to hunt. I want to go too, Young Master. Please let me go with Master Wu! One more person is a good helper!

Shier Hong sighed, did you misunderstand something about Master Wu? When did Master Wu need your help?... Before he finished speaking, Chaxianyu had already run far away like a wisp of smoke. He followed behind the brown haired figure who was gradually dipping into the forest, she smiled and raised his hand.

Seeing that, Luo Rongji subconsciously grabbed onto the hilt of his sword to catch up, but was quickly stopped by Shier Hong. Luo Rongji, you stay here. She'll be fine.

The man's eyes were a sea of cold gold. I'll let go, and you'll let go too. Chaxianyu... She was special. She will grow up, and none of us can stop her.

He looked at the golden-eyed man in front of him with a pained expression.

The forest was vast, and through the canopy of the trees, one could catch traces of a line of clouds sliding across it. Chaxianyu followed behind Wu Zhiya and jumped up and down, chattering non-stop. Master Wu, do you want to eat mushrooms? Did you see the squirrel? Do you like this red leaf? Look at that bird! Ahahahaha! Chaxianyu was extremely happy.

Wu Zhiya didn't reply as he walked ahead. He formed a seal with his hand, and a silver net flew out from the white spell. The net jumped up and entered the depths of the forest. Not long after, it came back with a bunch of living creatures. Just like this, Wu Zhiya effortlessly caught a mature wild boar. He turned around and looked at the tea envious fish with an inquiring gaze. Go back?

Chaxianyu opened her mouth wide. Master Wu. So powerful.

The cold and elegant brown haired master didn't have much of an expression, it was just a little bit of the skin of his Wu Clan and soul power. Too much praise.

The short girl with the ponytail suddenly blurted out, "Sir …" Are you angry?

Wu Zhiya was a little surprised, why did he say that?

Chaxianyu lowered her head and stuttered, because … Because I didn't ask for your opinion, I decided to stay out or something... Just because I said I wanted to see the stars.

I don't know what anger is. Wu Zhiya lowered his head, his right hand holding onto his chest, frowning, his expression a little doubtful, because he had never felt this place before.

Eh?!

Wu Zhiya recalled the moment when there was a reaction in his chest and all of them, without exception, were related to the girl who had a face of confusion and widened her eyes. And every time he felt a strange and fresh throbbing, it was only because she had called his name.

Heart... Jump? He could actually have a heartbeat. It was like being a real person.

I think it was two? Dong dong, dong dong. Another three chimes? Dong dong dong, dong dong dong … Wu Zhiya felt that it was a little funny. "To think that there was something in the world that Wu Zhiya did not know about.

There was a heart in his chest, and it began to beat. Is that how it is described?

Dong dong —!

When Wu Zhiya returned to his senses, he found that the layer of skin beneath his fingers had unexpectedly become a little hot, and his still chest had once again taken a beating by surprise.

Chaxianyu tiptoed and raised her arm, waving it in front of his eyes. Master, what's wrong?

Wu Zhiya looked into her eyes for a long time, as if he was considering whether or not to say something. In the end, he still opened his mouth slowly.

Chaxianyu was stunned.

I am the vessel created. The meaning of my existence, is to properly protect the purest soul power in Wu Clan.

He touched his chest. There was a pair of fan-like eyelashes on his delicate face, and he blinked a few times. A pair of exotic yellow and green pupils appeared in his eyes, "I am not sad or happy, nor can I experience love or hatred. So, you don't have to take care of my emotions." After all, I am not human.

Chaxianyu scratched her head, feeling troubled. Even if you say it like that … But I can't.

Wu Zhiya was startled, and then... What can't be done?

Chaxianyu racked her brains to think of an explanation, but she was truly at her wit's end, so she simply grabbed Wu Zhiya's hand and placed the red leaf she just collected in his palm. I couldn't do it, because the next time I see the red leaf, I still want to share it with you.

Next time, when I see the mushrooms in the forest, I will also think about the question of 'I don't know if Master Wu likes to eat them or not'.

Not just the next time, but every time in his life. Her green clothes were tied up in a ponytail, and the short and thin little girl grabbed Wu Zhiya's arm. Her eyes were shining as she saw the squirrel, the Big Mountain Pig, and the fat bird … Seeing the scenery that you have seen with an adult, meeting people who are dressed like an adult, you will always think of an adult.

Since I can't forget, then don't forget. Before it's different, don't be sad. There are so many memories now. There will definitely be more memories in the future. I want to care about your emotions, not because you don't need them, but because I want them. Chaxianyu giggled, Wu Zhiya seemed to be deep in thought, and mumbled to himself. So that's how it is, is it because you want it …

So, my lord, please don't stop Yu Er from being concerned about your emotions, okay? From today onwards, the Yu Er will not be able to resist wanting to understand more about the Lord as long as we are together.

The young girl said so.

The breath of summer was hot and hot, moving between the sky and the earth, exuding a vigorous heat. A man with a chestnut brown hair as soft as muffin stood silently in the forest. Sunlight fell lightly on his thin shoulders. Blue bamboo was embroidered on his snow-blue coat, and it shined like a broken diamond.

He used a gentle gaze that even he could not detect to look at the young girl, before softly opening his mouth and speaking …

I permit you.
