“Xiaolu, it’s been eleven years. Don’t you recognize me?”
Zhou Zhi spoke first and smiled. He had sensed Su Xiaolu coming out of the foreign land, but they had been separated for too long. The sensing between the mesons was too insignificant. He had chased after her all the way and was always one step behind her.
It was not until Su Xiaolu used the seed he had given her that he found her and caught up to her.
He watched Su Xiaolu destroy the entire You Shan Sect and watched her deal with the three evil cultivators until she saw him too.
Their eyes met. He knew that Su Xiaolu had grown up and she had changed. She seemed to be at a loss, so he broke the silence first.
The familiar tone made Su Xiaolu relax a lot.
Su Xiaolu smiled and walked towards Zhou Zhi. Then, she said, “How can I not recognize you? I recognized you at a glance. I’m just surprised that Fourth
Brother has changed so much.”
She had grown up too, but she was still not as tall as him.
“Fourth Brother, how have you been all these years? I’ve been away from the secular world for a long time and I’m not familiar with many things.”
Su Xiaolu asked naturally. She knew that Zhou Zhi had made some achievements in studying the Spatial Technique over the years. He was the one who created the meson space. The space was not big, only the size of two square meters. It could be used to store things. If he was given another few decades or hundreds of years, could he create a space with mountains and water?
Su Xiaolu thought that her Space might have been forged like this.
Zhou Zhi’s intelligence and ability were really outstanding.
“I’m in the merpeople’s clan land all year round and come out occasionally. I’ve recently refined some meson spaces that can be used to store things. I’ll give you a few.”
Zhou Zhi and Su Xiaolu chatted as they walked. They were relaxed and natural. Even the gifting was as casual as before.
Su Xiaolu felt that it would be a little awkward not to accept it, so she generously accepted it.
Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu and smiled. “Xiaolu, have you been doing well there all these years?”
In such a hot place, the temperature was so high, even higher than a furnace. He could not imagine how a human body could survive in such an environment. Has Su Xiaolu been doing well for so many years?
Su Xiaolu smiled and said, “Apart from the pain when I went in, I was fine after that. At that time, I was just holding on because I couldn’t accept giving up.”
Su Xiaolu told Zhou Zhi how she went to the foreign land, including the opportunities inside.
Zhou Zhi was much more at ease. He subconsciously reached out and ruffled Su Xiaolu’s hair. “Don’t do this next time. I was very worried when you suddenly disappeared. Everyone was worried about you. Eleven years is too long.”
If it weren’t for the fact that he could also feel that she was alive and Little Niu had also said that she was alive, he wouldn’t know how to endure it.
During that period of time, he had read many books.
He had also found the ancient books of the merpeople. Regarding the explanation of the Space, he asked the merpeople over and over again.
This was because if he wanted to comprehend the Spatial Technique, he had to do it himself. This way, no matter if Su Xiaolu was alive or dead, his fate with her would not be severed.
Before he could comprehend Space and Time, Su Xiaolu returned.
It was good to see her grow up and see her alive.
Su Xiaolu nodded. “Yes, I know. I should go back and see Father and Mother.”
It had been too long since she last saw her friends and family.
It had been nearly twelve years.
Su Kuo’s voice sounded in her sea of consciousness. “Sister, I want to come out.”
Su Xiaolu looked at Zhou Zhi. It was not good to let Su Kuo out now. She said to Su Kuo, “Little Kuo, I’ll find an excuse to relieve myself later. Go to the next place and wait for me. We’ll meet again.”
Su Kuo could only agree.
Zhou Zhi was obviously going back to the capital with Su Xiaolu.
Su Xiaolu and Su Kuo agreed on a place. She said to Zhou Zhi, “Fourth Brother,
I have a younger brother called Su Kuo. He’s waiting for me not far ahead.”
Zhou Zhi nodded. “Alright, let’s go back to the capital together.”
Su Kuo had already transformed into a human and waited with his horse.
Seeing Zhou Zhi, Su Kuo smiled and said, “Hello, my name is Su Kuo. Sister, who is this?”
Su Xiaolu:
She maintained her smile and said, “He’s the Wisdom King, Zhou Zhi. He’s my Fourth Brother.”
What was wrong with Su Kuo? He clearly knew Zhou Zhi’s identity, but he still asked.
Su Kuo turned to smile at Zhou Zhi. “Hello, Brother. You can call me Little Kuo, like Sister.”
Su Kuo smiled. He even deliberately leaned closer to Su Xiaolu to show that he and Su Xiaolu were especially close.
That’s right, he did it on purpose.
Zhou Zhi liked Su Xiaolu. That feeling of love was too strong, but the love between a man and a woman would affect her cultivation. Moreover, her sister’s two Masters did not want her to be with this man.
He also had a strong feeling that if he didn’t stop it, something would definitely happen that would make him sad.
Men were petty and jealous.
Women didn’t like men like that.
Su Kuo deliberately provoked Zhou Zhi, hoping that he would be angry and mess up what he wanted to do.
Zhou Zhi smiled gently at Su Kuo. “Hello, Little Kuo.”
Zhou Zhi was not angry. Instead, he was very gentle to Su Kuo.
Su Kuo was a little puzzled. Zhou Zhi smiled, but he frowned.
This shouldn’t be the case. The ancestor’s memories shouldn’t be wrong. Even if there was a mistake, Zhou Zhi felt that he shouldn’t be so flawless. Zhou Zhi was so gentle, but Su Kuo was puzzled.
Zhou Zhi smiled and said to Su Xiaolu, “Little Kuo is not bad.”
Su Xiaolu nodded happily. “Little Kuo is very good.”
Of course, Su Xiaolu was happy that he had been acknowledged.
On the way back to the capital, there were no changes other than having Zhou Zhi around.
It was just that when they were eating, Su Kuo was more cautious. For example, when they had roasted chicken, there was one drumstick for Su Xiaolu and one for him, and Zhou Zhi would have none.
It was the same for the rabbit leg. Zhou Zhi never cared about Su Kuo’s childish actions. Instead, he smiled and doted on him.
Su Kuo :
He was very puzzled. Something was wrong with Zhou Zhi. Something was wrong with him, but he didn’t know what it was.
Su Kuo could only become even more unrestrained. For example, he could share a piece of meat with Su Xiaolu and feed her or ask her to feed him.
But no matter what, Zhou Zhi was indifferent.
Seeing that they were about to enter the capital, Su Kuo couldn’t help but move his mouth at Zhou Zhi, signaling him to follow him while Su Xiaolu was asleep.
Zhou Zhi smiled and followed.
The two of them walked further away before Su Kuo stopped. He turned around and looked at Zhou Zhi unkindly. “Hey, what are you doing to me? Can’t you tell that I like Sister? We’re not good friends!”
Su Kuo was depressed. He couldn’t understand.
He felt that Zhou Zhi was hiding too deeply. There were only the two of them now. He couldn’t be pretending, right? Hence, he stared at Zhou Zhi and didn’t miss any expression on his face..
