2245 Master is Master
Shu Jing was stunned. “But I didn’t—”
She suddenly thought of something, and her expression changed. “Could it be… because of Shangguan Yue? But even if she has the support of Zhen Bao Pavilion, it shouldn’t be like this, right?”
Jin Yunlai frowned.
Actually, after knowing this, he had also thought a lot. No matter how he guessed, it seemed to point to that person.
But… Didn’t she come to Fantasy Divine Palace not long ago? Would the emperor personally appear for such a person?
No matter how he thought about it, something was wrong. But apart from this reason, there seemed to be no other explanation.
“It seems like she’s more important to Zhen Bao Pavilion than we expected…” Jin Yunlai paused. “Previously, I reminded you not to provoke the people Zhen Bao Pavilion wants to protect. Look what happened now!”
It was one thing to be reprimanded in public and lose all her face, but most importantly—her position as the Eighth Deity was also in danger!
Shu Jing bit her lip and was speechless. Even if she was unwilling to admit it, she knew that she had caused a huge trouble this time. Furthermore… it was very likely because of Shangguan Yue!
“Why would the emperor…”
“The emperor’s intentions aren’t something you and I can guess. Let this matter rest. It can’t happen again.” Jin Yunlai’s gaze was cold. “Otherwise… Not to mention me, even the First Deity can’t help you.”
Shu Jing trembled and nodded with difficulty. “…Thank you for your reminder, Seventh Deity. I understand.”
…
Qiang Wanzhou slowly opened his eyes.
In an instant, a cold light seemed to surge in those clear and cold eyes, but it disappeared in a flash.
He let out a long breath.
The extremely cold force sealed in his body had already been completely transformed into his holy force.
Abundant energy surged through his limbs and bones, and every part of him seemed to contain astonishing explosive power!
He raised his hand and pointed forward.
Whir!
The empty air shook!
Ripples spread in all directions!
It had been… many years since he felt so light.
He raised his eyes and looked ahead.
At the end of the distance, a hall stood tall.
Sacred, dignified, and inviolable!
He closed his eyes. When he opened them again, they were calm again.
He randomly moved and arrived in the courtyard, standing a few steps in front of Chu Liuyue.
Chu Liuyue smiled. “Congratulations, Little Zhou.”
It was really rare to break through to become a legendary warrior at such a young age. Moreover, his physical condition was rather special. It was really worth being happy and glad that he had succeeded this time.
Qiang Wanzhou looked at her steadily, and there seemed to be waves in his eyes.
Chu Liuyue was stunned. “Little Zhou, what’s wrong?”
Qiang Wanzhou lowered his eyes. “Thank you… Master.”
Chu Liuyue felt that he seemed a little strange, but she couldn’t tell what the problem was.
The way he looked at me just now… Perhaps it’s because he has just broken through to become a legendary warrior and hasn’t gotten used to it yet? Chu Liuyue thought to herself secretly.
She walked forward. “Give me your hand.”
Qiang Wanzhou obediently raised his hand.
His wrist was thin and white as if it could be easily broken with a little force. However, who would’ve thought that such a young man had already become a legendary warrior?
Chu Liuyue placed her fingers on his wrist and used a portion of her strength to investigate.
The extremely cold force in his body had indeed completely dissipated and turned into his own. However, the force that suddenly erupted was too powerful, causing a huge impact on his Yuan meridian.
There were indeed some losses, but all of this didn’t matter. He just had to recuperate well.
She retracted her hand in relief and handed over the Settling Yuan Pill. “You’re already a legendary warrior now, and your strength has improved greatly in all aspects. You can almost recover by adjusting yourself. Coupled with this Settling Yuan Pill, you’ll be completely healed in less than half a month.”
Qiang Wanzhou took it with both hands.
The jade box was cold to the touch, but he felt his palm burning.
“Thank you, Master.”
Chu Liuyue smiled and ruffled his hair.
Qiang Wanzhou’s rose petal-like lips curled up slightly as he softly said, “Master is Master.”
Chu Liuyue didn’t mind. He had always been quiet and reserved.
“In the future, you won’t have to worry about anything happening to your body.” Chu Liuyue was very happy and immediately shook her head. “I wonder who placed the seal on you.”
Qiang Wanzhou lowered his eyes and didn’t speak.
“Forget it. You’re fine now anyway. It doesn’t matter if I can’t find out,” said Chu Liuyue. It’s unknown how many years ago it was. Since Qiang Wanzhou doesn’t remember it himself, it is even more difficult to say.
Qiang Wanzhou nodded. “I’ll listen to you, Master.”
Chu Liuyue finally felt relieved. After saying a few more words, she planned to go to Zhen Bao Pavilion.
She hadn’t finished copying the Li Fire Xuan Map. In addition, she also wanted to see if she could get the opportunity to meet the Second Boss of Zhen Bao Pavilion.
…
When Chu Liuyue arrived at Zhen Bao Pavilion, there were almost no people.
Ming Shu was organizing the herbs on the shelf.
“Master Ming.”
Hearing the voice, Ming Shu hurriedly turned around. When he saw that it was Chu Liuyue, he immediately smiled. “Oh, Miss Shangguan, why are you here today?”
Chu Liuyue surveyed the surroundings. “I was free. On the other hand, why is your shop… so empty?”
Ming Shu laughed out loud. “They can enter and exit the medicinal mountain at will now. They can get whatever medicinal herbs they want themselves, so naturally, fewer people come here.”
Chu Liuyue’s eyebrows twitched. This matter… seems to have started because of me?
