"If that's really the case, how can you keep an eye on me?" I sighed softly, my head lowered, my gaze falling on You's hand that was tightly holding mine.
"What did you say?"
"It's nothing, it's nothing." I quickly waved my hand to change the subject. "You, we haven't been to the mortal realm for so long. I want to go to the mortal realm again."
"Want to go see something called a movie again?"
I nodded vigorously, wondering if there were any good new movies coming out recently. I also really wanted to see the games and comic books in the mortal world; staying cooped up in the Heavenly Court all day was just too boring.
"If you want to go, of course you can." You paused for a moment before continuing, "But Xin'er, how's your cultivation going lately?"
How's my cultivation going? My excitement vanished instantly. "You, we've been together every day these past few days. Don't you know best how my cultivation is going?"
You slowly sipped her tea, not looking at me, as if waiting for me to speak. "You, I really don't want to cultivate anymore. I'm already very powerful."
"Impressive? Can you beat me?" You asked rhetorically, her gaze slowly falling on me.
"I..." It's that familiar question again. Yu's standards are a bit too high, aren't they? "Yu, you're so amazing, we can't use you as the standard. You need to find someone else."
"Change to someone else?" You paused, her eyes darting around as if she were choosing someone.
Before You could speak, a commotion arose outside. "Go see what's going on?" I turned to Chang Xi behind me and asked.
"Yes." Chang Xifu left but returned shortly after, followed by a junior immortal official. Upon seeing You and me, the junior immortal official knelt and kowtowed before speaking, "This junior immortal greets Emperor You and Emperor Xin."
"What's the matter that you're in such a hurry?" You asked.
"The head steward and the sorcerer are fighting in the Taihui Palace!"
"They've started fighting? What's the reason?" You asked coldly, his gaze fixed on the little immortal official's back.
The little immortal official was probably frightened by You's imposing aura, and knelt on the ground trembling.
I felt a little sorry for him, so I said, "Get up first."
"Thank you, Emperor Xin." The celestial official rose and bowed to me.
"How did they start fighting?" I asked softly.
You had previously said that the witch immortals were people of sense and wouldn't follow Feng Su's reckless behavior, but now the two of them were fighting fiercely in Taihui Palace. What kind of place is Taihui Palace? It is a place where immortals gather to discuss government affairs, just like the Golden Palace of the emperor in the human world.
The little fairy cautiously looked up at me and then said, "It was the witch who made a sarcastic remark about Manager Feng, which angered Manager Feng so much that he attacked the witch fairy."
"What about the witch? Did she fight back?" I pressed.
"At first, the shaman ignored Steward Feng and simply avoided her. However, Steward Feng persisted. It is unclear what she said that angered the shaman, but the shaman became serious. At this moment, Taihui Palace is almost razed to the ground by the two of them."
"Absurd! These two are utterly lawless!" You couldn't help but exclaim upon hearing this.
"Don't be angry, let me ask them what they said and how they started fighting."
"What the sorcerer said angered Feng Su."
The little fairy official was practically burying his head in the ground, whispering in a voice barely above a mosquito's buzz, "I forgot too."
Forgot? I squinted at the little immortal's fair neck. It's probably not that he forgot, but that they said something that made the little immortal afraid to speak.
It seems like we won't get any answers by asking. We might as well just go and see for ourselves.
