Just as Chong Jiu was about to have a deeper conversation with Shu Jianyue, Yan Xi, who had been hiding like an invisible person, finally couldn't help but say, "Father, have you forgotten that I'm still in the car?"
Shu Jianyue blushed instantly and immediately pushed Chong Jiu away, not daring to look at Yan Xi next to her.
Chong Jiu coughed lightly and said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. Would you like to change the car?"
As soon as he said that, Shu Jianyue glared at him and said, "What do you mean, 'change'? There's no need to change it."
If Xixi is replaced, what will people outside think?
The more guilty a person is, the more they will think that others will overthink things. Those who don't know the truth will only think that they have something to say, which is why Yan Xi changed cars.
but.
However, Yan Xi didn't actually go to change cars, and Shu Jianyue insisted on not letting her.
As the imperial procession approached Chongyao Palace, a group of celestial attendants emerged from the palace and stood in unison on both sides.
Shu Jianyue glanced around and saw that there were twenty people standing on each side, making a total of forty people: twenty male immortal servants and twenty female immortal servants.
The male immortal attendants were all exceptionally handsome, and the female immortal attendants were all as beautiful as celestial beings.
Shu Jianyue raised an eyebrow at Chong Jiu, "Chongyao Palace is truly filled with handsome men and beautiful women."
Chong Jiu held her hand and smiled, "They were all hired to serve you and Xi Xi. If you don't like them, just send them all away."
“There were no female immortal servants in Chongyao Palace before. It was only recently that Rong Jin selected them to serve you.”
"If you think that's too many, then just pick two. Let the others go back, since they haven't been registered yet anyway."
Shu Jianyue glanced at the fairy attendants on both sides, whose eyelids were lowered. The corners of their lips were curled with appropriate smiles, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking.
The ceremonial carriage stopped at the main gate. Chong Jiu got out of the car first and then reached out his hand to Shu Jianyue.
Shu Jianyue took his hand and got out of the car. Then Yan Xi followed her out of the car. After looking around, she followed Chong Jiu into Chongyao Palace.
As they stepped onto the stairs, Shu Jianyue pulled Chong Jiu back to look at Gu Yunxiao and Yu Chuan as they got out of the car.
Gu Yunxiao looked somewhat reserved, staring straight ahead, not daring to look around.
Shu Jianyue smiled at him, and only said when he got closer, "Master, this is your home from now on. You can do whatever you want without being so restrained."
Chong Jiu nodded, "Master, if you need anything, just ask Rong Jin, and he will arrange it for you."
Upon hearing this, Rong Jin immediately stepped forward and bowed to Gu Yunxiao, saying, "I am Rong Jin. Your Excellency may ask me for any instructions."
To be addressed as "Master" by a deity is an incredible stroke of luck. If it weren't for his wife, he probably wouldn't even have the chance to get close to the deity.
Gu Yun smiled and nodded at him, "Then I'll have to trouble you from now on."
"You're too kind. You're Madam's master, so it's only right." Rong Jin's words also implied that if it weren't for Madam, you wouldn't receive this treatment.
Gu Yunxiao naturally understood, but since he relied on his apprentice, he didn't think anything of it.
Shu Jianyue glanced at Rong Jin with a slightly cold look in her eyes. It was fine for her to look down on Rong Jin, but she couldn't look down on her master.
Are you looking down on him, or are you looking down on me?
Rong Jin didn't expect her to ask that question. Seeing Chong Jiu looking at her coldly, she immediately lowered her head.
He shuddered, his face paled for a moment, and he was annoyed at himself for being so careless.
He didn't mean to look down on them, but he felt that Shu Jianyue and the others were only able to get up here because of the God, and there was nothing commendable about them.
Shu Jianyue coldly retorted, "Speak! Don't think that just because you're Chong Jiu's most trusted guardian beast, I won't touch you."
Rong Jin looked at Chong Jiu.
Chong Jiu glanced at him coldly and said nothing.
Rong Jin pursed his lips and said, "I didn't mean to look down on you, I just think you are not worthy of the God."
"Old Master Gu only got to be here because of your connections."
Shu Jianyue sneered, "You think I'm not good enough for you?"
"So what if my master benefits from my glory? As long as Chong Jiu is willing, what right do you have to use your own feelings to measure whether my master and Chong Jiu are a good match?"
Shu Jianyue looked at him for a while before turning her gaze to Chong Jiu and saying, "Let's go in first and let the children choose their fairy attendants. One or two per child is enough; too many would be counterproductive."
He's someone Chong Jiu trusts, and a brother he grew up with. A little lesson is enough; there's no need to really break things off.
Moreover, it's normal for him to have this kind of thought.
Chong Jiu glanced at Rong Jin, then put his arm around her and led her inside.
Rong Jin's face turned even paler at this moment.
Honglang stepped forward and patted his shoulder, saying, "Don't underestimate Madam, or you'll be the one who suffers."
"You know that the God was rescued by the Lady. The God values her highly. With your intelligence, you shouldn't have done that."
Rong Jin looked at Hong Lang and asked, "What kind of person is Madam?"
Honglang thought for a moment and shook her head, saying, "I haven't spent much time with her, but I've heard a lot from her subordinates."
"The lady is very easygoing and protective of her own, but she is also very calculating."
“Since we are by the side of the God, we should follow his will. Although he did not explicitly tell us to respect the Lady, it was very clear that you should not look down on her.”
Rong Jin simply felt that there were countless fairies in the Upper God Realm who secretly admired the God Venerable, and each of them was outstanding, while Shu Jianyue was just a minor figure in the Heavenly Immortal Realm.
He rarely showed his emotions, but today he made such a mistake, and Rong Jin frowned deeply.
The punishment from the deity must be severe; hopefully, he won't be transferred away from my side.
Honglang glanced at Shu Jianyue's back and said, "When the God Venerable was first rescued, he had no cultivation. It was Madam who protected him the whole time. Don't think that Madam is taking advantage of his kindness."
"As far as I know, it was the deity who pestered the lady, and only then did she agree to sign the marriage contract with the deity."
"Also, do you know how long it took for Madam to go from a mortal to her current celestial realm?"
Rong Jin looked at Shu Jianyue, who had already gone inside, and shook her head.
"Twenty-five years." Yu Chuan blurted out as he passed by them, glancing sideways at Rong Jin after he finished speaking.
Rong Jin looked at Hong Lang in astonishment, her lips trembling slightly as she asked, "Is everything he said true?"
Hong Lang nodded, "Yes, twenty-five years. Young Master Yu Chuan and Young Master Yan Xi are exactly twenty-five this year."
"That was Young Master Yuchuan who just walked past." After saying that, he patted him on the shoulder and followed Lou Qiongshang inside.
Sky walked up to Rong Jin, looked him up and down, and said, "You'd better not look down on my master."
Rong Jin looked at the sky in front of him. He knew it and saw its true form: the Zhu Yan divine beast, a divine beast with unlimited potential for the future.
"This is Master Chong's territory, which is also my master's territory. You have no right to look down on her." Sky finished speaking, scoffed at him, and swaggered past him.
