2257 Choice

Jian Fengchi came back to his senses. “Where are you going? Fantasy Divine Palace?”

Chu Liuyue nodded. “Yes.”

Jian Fengchi’s expression changed slightly. He had already seen the opening commotion of Fantasy Divine Palace’s Heaven Gate.

It would be a lie to say that he didn’t want to go. Moreover, Mu Hongyu would obviously go this time.

He nodded almost without hesitation. “Okay!”

Chu Liuyue sized him up and smiled. “There are many herbs on Fantasy Divine Palace’s medicinal mountain, enough for you. You can also take this opportunity to break through to become a Supreme Physician as soon as possible. It won’t be too late for you to compete with me then.”

At the mention of this, Jian Fengchi’s chest tightened. I can’t afford to offend her.

…

Just like that, Chu Liuyue decided that these people would go together.

“Yan Qing, is your master still in the Sky-Cloud Empire?” She looked at Yan Qing. Thinking about it, it has been about a month. I wonder if Rong Xiu has finished settling his matters.

Yan Qing paused.

Before he could speak, a strange fluctuation came from afar.

Chu Liuyue turned around and saw a person slowly walking over from the distant sky.

His white clothes were as white as snow, his figure was tall, and his face was handsome—it was Rong Xiu.

He came from the horizon. He seemed to be strolling leisurely, but he was extremely fast.

The wide space seemed to have automatically shrunk under his feet. Every step was 50 kilometers long!

In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived above Yue Manor.

He walked toward Chu Liuyue. Before anyone could see his movements clearly, he was already in front of them.

“It’s so lively.” Rong Xiu’s gaze quickly swept across everyone in the courtyard, and his scarlet thin lips curled up slightly. “Looks like I came at the right time.”

Chu Liuyue took a step forward and first sized him up carefully. After confirming that he was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief.

During this period of time, the entire God Residence Realm was in constant turmoil. That incomplete mysterious black Holy Body had already turned several places upside down, including the red-gold heavenly phoenix race.

She couldn’t help but worry.

During the time Rong Xiu left, she had been worried if the Sky-Cloud Empire was also the other party’s target. Fortunately, from the looks of it, everything seemed fine.

“Yue’er, are you worried about me?” Rong Xiu raised his sharp brows slightly.

Chu Liuyue shook her head and nodded again.

Rong Xiu was very strong. Even now, she had yet to find out his true strength.

Logically, she knew that Rong Xiu didn’t need her to worry, but after not seeing him for a long time, she still missed him. Furthermore, Fantasy Divine Palace’s Heaven Gate had already opened, and the entire God Residence Realm was in an extremely unstable state.

Suddenly, her gaze froze. “Rong Xiu, your strength seems to have increased a lot?”

Even though Rong Xiu didn’t deliberately reveal it, she could still feel it very clearly when she stood close.

Rong Xiu softly laughed. “Isn’t that normal?”

As a cultivator, as long as he continuously absorbed the Heaven and Earth Force and transformed it into his own holy force, he could naturally continuously increase his strength.

However, Chu Liuyue still found it a little strange. “But…”

This change seems to be more than just a little… How long has it been since I left last time?

Rong Xiu smiled and allowed her to scrutinize him.

After a while, Chu Liuyue could only sigh helplessly. “Forget it. There are mountains outside.”

Every time she thought that her strength had improved and that she could compete with Rong Xiu, she would realize that he had also improved.

Even though he didn’t seem to have wasted too much time on cultivation, he could always outpace others.

The two of them had known each other for many years. She should have been used to it long ago.

“Is everything alright with the Sky-Cloud Empire?” She changed the topic.

Rong Xiu shook his head. “It’s fine.”

Chu Liuyue relaxed and smiled. “That’s great. Come with us to Fantasy Divine Palace!”

Hearing this, a dark light seemed to flash across Rong Xiu’s deep phoenix eyes.

Yan Qing, who was standing at the side, immediately looked up.

Tang Ke put his hands behind his back, coughed, and looked up at the sky.

After a moment, Rong Xiu asked, “You want me to go with you?”

Chu Liuyue nodded. “That’s right. On the one hand, I came back this time to ask Mr. Su for help. On the other hand, I also want to see how things are on your side. Since you’re already done, isn’t it just right for you to come with me?”

With Rong Xiu’s bloodline and talent, he could almost reach the heavens.

Seeing that Rong Xiu didn’t agree immediately, Chu Liuyue felt a little strange. “You don’t want to go?”

Countless cultivators in the world yearn for Fantasy Divine Palace. Why does it seem like Rong Xiu doesn’t care much?

After a moment, Rong Xiu said, “Okay. I’ll go with you.”

…

In the depths of the lightning pool, in the forbidden area.

Yi Zhao’s eyes were tightly shut, and his breathing was weak. Only the sound of the lightning surging and colliding around him reminded him where he was at this moment.

Ever since he was trapped here, he couldn’t see the sun. Every minute and second became extremely unbearable.

He could barely remember how long he had spent here.

“Yi Zhao.” Mu Dongyou’s deep voice came from ahead.

Yi Zhao didn’t move at all as if he didn’t hear him. He didn’t react at all.

Mu Dongyou didn’t mind. He knew that Yi Zhao could hear everything.

Even though Yi Zhao was only left with half a life, he was still the patriarch of the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan after all. His vitality was extremely tenacious.

“You still refuse to surrender?” Mu Dongyou questioned. “Do you know that you’re just asking for trouble? If you were half as smart as Yi Gong, you wouldn’t have fallen to your current state.”

Hearing Yi Gong’s name, Yi Zhao finally opened his eyes slowly.

Those ancient eyes—which were filled with scarlet and blood—were filled with undisguised anger from being betrayed.

“He… deserves to die!” Yi Zhao spoke with difficulty, his voice rough. If not for him, the red-gold heavenly phoenix race wouldn’t have lost so quickly! And I wouldn’t be imprisoned here without any preparation!

Mu Dongyou looked down at him. “I know that to you, Yi Gong betrayed you and the red-gold heavenly phoenix race. But have you ever thought that perhaps he’s the right one?”

“Ten thousand years have passed, and the current Fantasy Divine Hall has long changed. Yi Zhao, if you’re really thinking about the lives of the red-gold heavenly phoenix race’s hundreds of members, you should lower your head and make the choice you should make.”

Mu Dongyou was actually quite patient. Ever since Yi Zhao was trapped here, he had already carried out similar negotiations several times.

“What’s the benefit of holding on like this?” Yi Zhao sneered. “Anyway, Yi Gong is already yours. Why are you so obsessed with me?”

Mu Dongyou’s lips twitched. “He has only opened the sixth meridian, so he naturally can’t compare to you.”

Yi Zhao closed his eyes and stopped talking.

Seeing that his attitude was still firm, Mu Dongyou finally changed the topic and asked, “I heard that the young mistress in your clan has a pure bloodline?”

Yi Zhao’s heart skipped a beat!
