Chapter 69 New Chapter
Without Jiang Jiu noticing, Yu Zimo and Yun Shuili had already descended to the mortal world. At the same time, information about the Goddess of Pure Branches spread in the heavens, and all the powerful gods began to investigate the information about the "Goddess of Pure Branches".
When the Origin Divine Tree is about to collapse, everyone will try their best to find a way to survive.
Only Jiang Jiu knew nothing about this.
She was sitting in the inn at the moment, staring blankly at the rainy sky, with uneasiness always lingering in her heart.
"If you are unhappy, I can..."
Xiao Nianzhong sat opposite Maggie, his low and enchanting voice gentle and caring.
"I'm fine. I'm not unhappy."
Jiang Jiu turned his head and smiled at Xiao Nianzhong, but when he looked at his face, he couldn't help but lose his mind for a moment.
Maybe she will never have the chance to meet someone who loves her so much in the future?
Thinking of the imminent separation, she felt a sense of reluctance in her heart, and was even as sad as the fact that she was going to die.
"I can smell the sadness on you."
Xiao Nianzhong is a demon god and has always been very sensitive to the negative emotions of others. No matter how powerful Jiang Jiu is, he cannot hide his emotions in front of him.
"I want you to live a peaceful and happy life, without worries. If you are always sad, then my wish will never come true."
His words were half joking and half sincere, and when they fell into Jiang Jiu's ears, they made her feel even more sour.
"Okay, I will be safe and happy, and everything will go smoothly without any worries."
Jiang Jiu responded to Xiao Nianzhong's wish softly, his voice so ethereal that it seemed as if it wasn't around.
"I will always protect you."
As Xiao Nianzhong spoke, his eyes were more determined than ever before, and his scorching gaze almost burned Jiang Jiu's heart. At this moment, Jiang Jiu suddenly stood up, lowered his eyes, and his voice was stiff and a little unnatural.
"The rain has stopped, it's time for us to go to the palace."
She lowered her head and didn't dare to look into Xiao Nianzhong's eyes, for fear of revealing the emotions in his eyes, but she didn't know that Xiao Nianzhong could almost feel it as well.
Xiao Nianzhong looked at Jiang Jiu's hurriedly leaving back, and a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.
"Does she already know?"
The mumbling sound dissipated in the air and no one heard it.
Xiao Nianzhong's heart kept sinking. Assuming his speculation was correct, given Jiang Jiu's personality, she would definitely choose to sacrifice herself first. She had a serious tendency towards self-destruction.
"Looks like I need to meet the fox."
Xiao Nianzhong murmured softly, looking at Jiang Jiu's departing back, feeling very heavy-hearted.
On the other side, Jiang Jiu hurriedly took her people out of the inn. This time, she walked very fast and arrived at the palace in a short time. Perhaps because the palace guards recognized Jiang Jiu's appearance, they still did not stop her this time, and she entered the palace very smoothly.
Even the eunuchs' reporting speed was not as fast as Jiang Jiu and the others.
Long Xuan followed Jiang Jiu in confusion, with a bewildered expression. He was the only one who was still in the dark, like a naive fool.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Jiang Jiu walked into the Golden Palace, he saw an unexpected figure. On the magnificent throne, Yu Zimo was standing in front of the throne with a gloomy face. The current emperor of Da Qi was so frightened that he was trembling and couldn't say a word.
When he noticed Jiang Jiu stepping into the palace, Yu Zimo slowly turned his head and a rather gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Why are you so late?"
Jiang Jiu had not expected to meet Yu Zimo here. He was stunned at first and then answered slowly.
"It started raining on the way, so I went to the inn and stayed for a while."
She answered softly, with a little more indifference than her usual personality. She was neither cold nor gentle, as if she had taken everything lightly.
Hearing Jiang Jiu's tone, Yu Zimo narrowed his eyes slightly, and a strange feeling flashed through his mind, but he did not show it. Instead, he continued to pretend nothing had happened and asked.
"I heard you wanted to find the Longshan Jade Branch, and I've already got it."
After saying that, Yu Zimo took out a piece of light blue coral branch. The whole thing was transparent and beautiful, making people unable to take their eyes off it.
Long Xuan, who was standing aside, first had a look of surprise in his eyes, but when he realized that it was his love rival who helped him get it, his face suddenly fell.
Although it was a good thing that he didn't have to meet Panlong and deal with humans, it was still a bit unpleasant that his rival offered help.
"Thank you very much."
Long Xuan spoke in an awkward tone and took two steps forward, intending to take Long Shan Yuzhi. However, Yu Zimo raised his hand, indicating that he had no intention of taking it.
"This is for Xiaojiu'er."
Yu Zimo raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Jiang Jiu beside him. The atmosphere suddenly became extremely awkward.
Jiang Jiu held his forehead and could only step forward to take the Long Shan jade branch from Yu Zimo and then put it in Long Xuan's hand.
"You're already the master of the ghost realm, yet you're still so childish."
Her tone unconsciously carried some complaints, and it seemed like she was acting coquettishly. People who have been spoiled for a long time will unconsciously treat the people who spoil them like this.
In fact, Jiang Jiu has been squeezed into her life by these people without realizing it, and many times she is the only one who doesn't realize it.
"Only for my little wine."
Yu Zimo bent down slightly, put his hand on Maggie's forehead, and his voice was ambiguous as if he was flirting.
The frightened emperor sitting on the throne wanted to roll his eyes back when he saw this scene. Which good person would flirt in front of the throne when he was almost scared to death.
The Lord of the Ghost Realm promised to let Da Qi go. All the members of their royal family had been haunted by nightmares before, but now they are finally fine. Although it is a little worse to the outside world, it is still pretty good.
Who knew that he would come back and say that he wanted to take away the dragon vein luck of their Da Qi, which was simply forcing him to commit suicide.
If Fairy Qingyuan had not suddenly arrived, he would have probably bitten his tongue and committed suicide.
The emperor thought sadly that as an emperor and a man, he couldn't just cry and beg for mercy. He could only wait quietly for Fairy Qingyuan and the Ghost King to finish their conversation before finding a good way to die.
Besides, even if he really begged for mercy, I guess this person would not let him go.
It’s all the fault of the hateful national teacher. Otherwise, how could their Da Qi royal family have such a terrifying ancestor who is not only immortal but also the King of Ghosts.
Jiang Jiu keenly caught the emperor's trembling gaze and turned sideways to look.
The emperor and Jiang Jiu looked at each other for a second, and suddenly he slid down from the throne, slipped out through the gap and knelt on the ground, without repeating the words for help.
This is probably one of the advantages of being an emperor. I hear it so many times in the past that I can speak it out freely now.
"I beg you, Fairy, to spare my life. I promise that nothing like what happened to the Ghost Lord will happen again in Da Qi. I will work hard to govern the country. Please."
Jiang Jiu received the call for help, his expression froze for a moment, and he subconsciously turned to look at Yu Zimo.
