"Why is the witch's residence so remote?"
The next day, I followed You, winding my way further and further away from the center of the Heavenly Court.
“The witch prefers quiet and doesn’t like to be disturbed, so I gave her a secluded place to live.”
"Wow, he spends every day with you at Taihui Palace, that must be really hard work."
"You care a lot about the Witch Immortal?" You stopped and turned to look at me.
"No, no," I quickly shook my head in denial.
"You're not allowed to care about others," You said before walking away.
I quickly followed, "Okay, okay, okay. From now on, I'll only care about you, I won't see anyone else, okay?"
You didn't say anything, but the upturned corners of her mouth showed that she was in a good mood.
Finally, You stopped in front of a cold, deserted, and somewhat eerie mansion. Several willow trees were planted in front of the door, and the dark yellow door was tightly closed.
"This is the residence of the Witch Immortal?" The place where the Witch Immortal lived looked rather shabby to me.
"Mm." You nodded, then pulled me over the wall and into the courtyard.
"Not knocking?" I was stunned by You's skillful and slick actions. Did she just barge in like that?
I looked around nervously, afraid of being seen. If word got out that the dignified Emperor You and Emperor Xin were petty thieves, wouldn't that be incredibly shameful?
"Stop looking. There's no one here. Even if you knock, no one will open the door for you."
"No one? Doesn't the Witch Immortal's residence have any servants?" I asked in surprise. A Witch Immortal of this rank, who is also You's capable assistant, would surely have servants to attend to her.
"No. I tried to get him a prescription before, but he kicked me out each time."
"Is the witch so quiet?" The witch has such a strange nature that it's not good to have someone to serve her. I'm so lazy that I wish Changxi would comb my hair for me. Luo also likes quiet, but as far as I know, Luo's residence also has several palace servants.
“Yes, I told you he prefers quiet.” You nodded.
I swallowed hard, realizing I'd come up with a terrible idea. Wouldn't they dislike us for coming here so abruptly?
I was secretly thinking to myself, but when I saw You walking ahead so skillfully, I stopped worrying. With You around, even if the Witch Immortal was unhappy, she wouldn't do anything to me, hehe.
You and I didn't come for nothing. I had You bring a lot of precious tonics to visit the Witch Immortal. Even if it's just for the gifts, the Witch Immortal shouldn't be angry.
The witch's mansion was extremely quiet. Apart from the footsteps of You and me, I could almost hear the sound of leaves falling to the ground.
You stopped in front of an ordinary house and gently knocked on the door, "Witch Fairy, open the door."
After a while, the voice of the witch came from inside the house, "You Emperor? Your subordinate is coming right away."
Finally, I heard the witch's voice again. Judging from her voice, she seemed to be alright, which was great. But what's with this sycophantic attitude of the witch? She wasn't like this when she was with me!
With a creak, the door opened, and the witch's pale face appeared before us.
"Your subordinate greets Emperor You." The witch bowed slightly, then asked, "What instructions has Emperor You given you?"
"It's nothing." You paused after speaking, coughed to clear her throat, and I looked at You and felt that she seemed a little embarrassed.
"I came to check on your injuries."
A flicker of surprise crossed Wu Xian's eyes. "Thank you for your concern, Emperor You."
"Yes, this is all Emperor Xin's idea."
The witch looked at me again and bowed to me solemnly, "Thank you, Emperor Xin."
"You're welcome, it's my pleasure." I waved my hand.
