2539 Side Story 43: Can’t See

Tuan Zi turned around with much difficulty and was rather pitiful. “I-I did this for you!”

Zi Chen grunted coldly and let her go. “Use your thoughts on yourself.”

Then, he turned around to leave.

Tuan Zi hurriedly followed. “Zi Chen, why don’t you like Sister Yi Fu? She’s so pretty! A-and those sisters previously, don’t you like them?”

He’s too hard to serve!

Zi Chen paused in his tracks and lowered his head to glance at her. “I have to like those pretty ones?”

Tuan Zi was stumped and felt guilty by his look. “Uh, um… Not really…”

There were many pretty ladies in the world, but he could not have them all.

She scratched her head. “B-but you’re already so old. Aren’t you going to marry—”

Zi Chen glanced at her lightly. “What did you say?”

Tuan Zi’s eyes widened as she said confidently, “I-I said that your suave and handsome appearance has attracted many ladies. You’re amazing!”

Zi Chen pressed her forehead. “If you do such things again, I’ll return to the Fantasy Divine Palace first.”

Tuan Zi’s face fell. “Yes.”

Won’t it be very boring if I’m left here alone?

Zi Chen warned the lady. Then, he retracted his gaze in satisfaction and walked forward.

The moment he took two steps forward, he suddenly thought of something. He stopped in his tracks and turned around.

Tuan Zi felt confused by his gaze and touched her own face. “Zi Chen, why are you looking at me like this? Is there something on my face?”

Zi Chen looked at her and paused slightly. “Tuan Zi, did you… grow taller?”

…

“Wow, Tuan Zi grew by 2.3 inches!” Elder Yi Yu carried her up and carefully scrutinized her before giving an affirmative answer. “You did grow taller!”

Tuan Zi was excited, and her face blushed. “Really?!”

She had turned into human form for a long time, but she still maintained the same appearance. This led her to think that she would always be small.

Elder Yi Yu pinched her nose. “Of course! Grandpa Yi Yu remembers every single thing about you clearly!”

Feeling the authoritative gaze on his hand, Yi Yu turned around and saw Yi Zhao looking at his… hand expressionlessly.

Yi Yu’s lips twitched, and he immediately retracted his hand sensibly. Tsk, he only allows himself to be nice to Tuan Zi.

Yi Zhao beckoned toward Tuan Zi.

Tuan Zi ran over with her short legs. “Clan Leader Grandpa, am I going to grow very tall soon?”

When Yi Zhao looked at her, his expression was especially gentle with a rare hint of love. “It shouldn’t be like this normally, but perhaps you opened your ninth meridian and was influenced by your bloodline power. Thus, you grew quicker.”

Tuan Zi was elated as she turned around and yelled at Zi Chen, “Zi Chen, did you hear that? I’ll be tall real soon! Perhaps I’ll be as tall as you!”

Zi Chen: “…Try hard then.”

Yi Zhao ruffled Tuan Zi’s hair and said, “Previously, you were very busy, so I didn’t speak. BBut since Zi Chen has already woken up, then…”

His face seemed hesitant.

Tuan Zi tilted her head and blinked. “Clan Leader Grandpa, do you need my help?”

Yi Zhao laughed bitterly and helplessly. I really can’t hide anything from her.

“Yes.” He paused and was wondering how to speak. “You also know that after the evil spirit woke up, Godly Phoenix Hall was implicated. We forcefully relied on the ancestor’s remaining aura to support it. Now that the evil spirit is dead, Ancestor…”

Hearing this, Tuan Zi’s smile dimmed.

She knew that her ancestor had transferred the agreement to her and was completely destroyed during the battle at the Fantasy Divine Palace. Then, his aura was naturally no longer around.

Yi Zhao sighed. “Now, only you have opened your ninth meridian in the entire red-gold heavenly phoenix clan. I’m afraid we have to use your bloodline power to reform the Godly Phoenix Hall.”

Even though he was the clan leader, only Tuan Zi could do this.

Tuan Zi’s lips pressed against each other as she nodded seriously. “Clan Leader Grandpa, don’t worry. That’s what I should do! I’ll definitely do it well.”

The current her had feelings toward the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan. She naturally would not reject such a matter and would try her best to perfect it.

“But… how should I do it?”

Yi Zhao laughed. “Go to Godly Phoenix Hall. You will understand the details when you get there.”

This was the ability in the bloodline.

Tuan Zi immediately agreed. “Okay!”

At this point, Zi Chen suddenly asked, “Clan Leader Yi Zhao, may I know how long Tuan Zi will take?”

Yi Zhao knew that they wanted to return to see Goddess Yue. He smiled and answered, “Not too long. A few months at most.”

Tuan Zi was then relieved. “This means that I can still go back in time to see A’Yue give birth?”

She did not want to miss such an important event.

“Of course. But during this period, you have to stay in Godly Phoenix Hall alone. Yi Yu and I will guard you from outside.”

This process might be rather lonely and depressing for the active Tuan Zi.

Tuan Zi nodded obediently. “Clan Leader Grandpa, don’t worry. I know what to do at the appropriate time.”

This matter concerned the entire red-gold heavenly phoenix clan. She naturally would not let her guard down.

As she spoke, she turned around to look at Zi Chen. “Zi Chen, you have to wait for me here too!”

Zi Chen nodded nonchalantly. “OK.”

…

Fantasy Divine Palace.

The sun set, and the evening sun cast a light golden glow.

In the courtyard, two muscular figures overlapped, and shadows of swords and knives appeared.

Clang!

Yu Jiu pierced out, and the light-green light cut through the sky and went forward!

Yan Qing’s expression did not change as he blocked himself with his sword. Then, with the flick of his wrist, he agilely avoided Yu Jiu’s sword.

Whoosh—

The two of them fought with short weapons, and sparks flew!

Yu Jiu raised his brows, took a breath, and smiled. “Left Divine General, your body is recovering quite well. You can almost fight a complete battle with me.”

Yan Qing’s aura was more stable than his, but a layer of sweat also broke out on his forehead. When he heard this, he lightly said, “Weren’t you also there when I fought with Fifth Deity three days ago?”

During this period, the Thirteen Yue Guards took turns to deal hands with him, so they knew his condition the best.

Yu Jiu chuckled. “I was just afraid that you were bored from recuperating, so I specifically came to energize you!”

Yan Qing did not deny it. He knew clearly what intentions the Thirteen Yue Guards had, but…

“You don’t have to do this,” said Yan Qing. “The wedding date has been settled. Before that, I won’t be overboard.”

Yu Jiu glanced at him and snorted. “You thought that we were defending against you?”

Yan Qing: “…”

The moment he said it, the door was pushed open.

Almost at the same time, Yan Qing and Yu Jiu let go and moved backward respectively!

Xiao Ba walked in with a bright smile. “Brother Yan Qing, I’ll help you apply your medication!”

The two of them turned around simultaneously.

Xiao Ba flew over like a butterfly as she held Yan Qing’s arm, about to walk in. “Hey, your injury isn’t well yet. How can you make such big movements? Go in and let me see how your wound is healing—”

Yu Jiu’s brows twitched. “Eighth Sister!”

Xiao Ba paused in her tracks, turned around, and looked over in shock. “Little Nine, why are you here too?”

Yu Jiu: “…”
