Chapter 47 Return to Yuyang City
As soon as the people from the Punishment Hall arrived at Zixia Heavenly Palace, they saw Ji Chen walking out of the courtyard with a cold face. For a moment, even Si Lushen, who was in charge of the Punishment Hall, was stunned.
"Lord Immortal..."
Si Lushen took two cautious steps forward and walked in front of Ji Chen, his tone tentative.
"There's no need to investigate this matter for now."
Ji Chen didn't say much, just left this sentence and was about to leave. Si Lushen was so frightened that he almost jumped up on the spot, and stepped forward to stop him at the risk of being disapproved.
"This... Immortal Venerable, such a big thing, if we don't investigate..."
Si Lushen also gritted his teeth. He still wanted to keep his position, but he couldn't let the Immortal Lord let go of such a big thing. He was in a dilemma when he spoke.
"I will personally investigate."
Ji Chen paused as he was about to leave, glanced at Si Lushen lightly, and then uttered these words lightly.
When Si Lushen heard this, he thought that since this was the case, there was no need for him to interfere. The Immortal Lord had said that he would investigate it personally. If he continued to persuade him now, it would seem that he was ungrateful.
"Well, well, well, Your Excellency the Immortal is wise and powerful."
Si Lushen sometimes felt like a lackey, but there was nothing he could do since he was working under the Immortal Lord and wanted to keep his position, so he had to sacrifice his reputation.
You should know that some of his old friends disliked that Ji Chen was too young to become an immortal, and they acted arrogantly towards him, taking advantage of their seniority. Now no one knows where they are.
Anyway, no one is in the right position, only he is still holding on to the throne of God, thanks to his ability to seize opportunities.
Looking at Ji Chen's departing back, everyone in the Punishment Hall looked at each other and sighed silently.
Anyone can see that something is wrong with the Immortal Master. Perhaps the person who cut down the sacred laurel tree and stole the life branch is acquainted with the Immortal Master.
There are only a few top fighters in the Nine Heavens, and they are all in the Xianyu Pavilion now.
But no one can say this. Not only will it offend the Immortal Lord, but it will also offend Fairy Qingyuan. It will then be a question whether one can continue to stay in the Ninth Heaven.
But none of them knew that the Fairy Qingyuan, whom they feared, had already sneaked down to the mortal world and was standing in front of the Zhao Mansion in Yuyang City.
"Oh! It's fixed."
Jiang Jiu looked at the wealthy-looking storefront in front of him in surprise. He thought that after Zhao Weilan embarked on the immortal path, she also gave back to the Zhao family. Now it looked a hundred times better than the last time she came.
"So you've been going around so many times to get here."
Xiao Nianzhong obviously also remembered what he had experienced here before. He vaguely remembered that time in the dry well in the backyard of the Zhao Mansion, they almost survived a life-and-death crisis.
If it weren't for the ginger wine, that stinky monk might have died in it.
Thinking of this, Xiao Nian curled his lips again. It would be better to let that bald donkey die in there, so that he would have one less competitor.
"I want to see how they are doing."
Jiang Jiu still remembered how pale and skinny those kids looked, but now that he saw such a nice storefront, it didn't really matter if he didn't go in.
"Well, I'll accompany you."
Xiao Nianzhong nodded obediently. Although he didn't understand, he had always been supportive of Jiang Jiu's affairs and would not interfere with Jiang Jiu's decision.
"Stupid little coal ball, let's go."
Jiang Jiu laughed. Sometimes when she saw Xiao Nianzhong showing such a cute expression, she had the urge to pinch his face.
"Eh? You don't want to watch it anymore?"
Xiao Nianzhong had no objection to Jiang Jiu's address to him, and even happily thought it was a nickname. However, he was still a little surprised that Jiang Jiu was about to leave like this.
"No, I'm relieved."
Jiang Jiu has never helped anyone in her life, and now she is about to sacrifice herself for the world. She doesn't know how long it will take for her to be forgotten. Maybe Zhao Weilan will remember her.
"oh."
Xiao Nianzhong seemed to understand, but he was not very sensitive to human emotions. Seeing Jiang Jiu's relieved expression, he didn't say anything more.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the door of Zhao's house suddenly opened, and a fair and tender little girl peeked out from inside.
The moment Jiang Jiu saw the little girl, he was stunned, wondering if this child was also from the Zhao family?
Unexpectedly, the little girl's eyes lit up the moment she saw Jiang Jiu. She ran out and rushed to Jiang Jiu, but seemed afraid of bumping into her, so she only dared to stand half a meter away, her face full of excitement.
"Fairy sister! You're here?! Big brother talks about you every day."
Jiang Jiuzai looked at the little girl carefully but couldn't tell who she was, so he could only ask in a slightly puzzled tone.
"Who are you?"
The little girl was not surprised by Jiang Jiu's reaction. How could a fairy remember the name of a mortal? It was a great honor to see the fairy sister again.
"I am the little beggar who stopped you on the street that day."
After listening to the little girl, Jiang Jiu fell into silence for a long time. He didn't expect that the skinny little beggar looked so cute after being cleaned up.
But it's true, the Zhao family has good genes, and Zhao Weilan is also very pretty, just a little thin.
"Sister Fairy is passing by here, could you please come in and sit for a while?"
The girl's tone became cautious when she spoke. She had passed the excitement just now, and now she was only worried about whether Jiang Jiu would come in.
"good."
Jiang Jiu was helpless. Was she so difficult to talk to?
It seemed like she was worried to death about the child. If she didn't go in now, the child would cry for a long time at night.
"Yeah, yeah, that's great!"
The girl jumped up from the ground, turned around and ran inside, shouting as she ran.
"Brother, brother, the fairy sister is here!"
As soon as Jiang Jiu stepped into the door, she felt a gust of wind passing by in front of her. When she raised her head, she saw Zhao Weilan looking at her in surprise.
"Why are you here?"
Zhao Weilan was so excited that she spoke without thinking. After she said this, she suddenly realized something and immediately made amends.
“No, no, no, what I mean is, it’s such an honor for you to pass by the Zhao Mansion.”
After he finished speaking, he felt something was wrong and his expression became more and more awkward, which made Jiang Jiu feel bad for him.
"It's okay. I don't have to deal with so much red tape. You don't have to treat me so carefully."
Jiang Jiu is a modern person after all, and doesn't care about these etiquettes. She waved her hand and directly stopped Zhao Weilan from trying to change her words.
Xiao Nianzhong, who was standing aside, half-closed his eyes, as if he was judging Zhao Weilan, because he felt an emotion similar to love from the boy in front of him.
Not just admiration and respect, but also the feeling he is most familiar with - love.
This was something Xiao Nianzhong absolutely could not tolerate. He took two steps at a time and walked directly between the two of them, separating them.
"Jiujiu, I have a headache."
Xiao Nianzhong kept telling lies, of course, he learned all of them from that green tea bitch Yun Shuili.
But unexpectedly it works great every time.
