Chapter 582 Wu Chan's Thoughts
Zhong Cai didn't ask what kind of treasure could help him overcome the tribulation, since he didn't lack such things and had no need to plunder the young girl's possessions.
He wondered to himself, according to the usual pattern, shouldn't that brat have secretly fallen for this girl, and then when he needed it, she would give him that treasure to help him overcome the tribulation? Or perhaps there was some other place where he needed that tribulation-crossing item, and the girl would just give it to him?
But regardless of what was originally supposed to be the case, that role probably doesn't exist now. When that brat is lacking something, he can just ask him and Lao Wu to sign an IOU; there's no need for him to take advantage of the young girl.
As Zhong Cai thought about this, she suddenly remembered something else.
He asked directly, "Dongxiao, shouldn't you be with Haoyang Daojun?"
Wu Dongxiao recalled how he and Haoyang Daojun had found the treasure, divided the loot, and boasted about it to his two uncles...
After chuckling twice, Wu Dongxiao said, "Uncle, you don't know, we just finished our work and stepped on a teleportation array." He scratched his cheek, "I only had time to grab my senior brother."
Zhong Cai understood.
Stepping into a teleportation array is a very common and unexpected encounter for the "protagonist".
So, the reason this kid "descended from the sky" when Wu Chan was in danger was probably because the teleportation array had a random teleportation function.
As for Haoyang Daojun... no one knows where he was "thrown" away.
Zhong Cai then said, "Take some time to organize your findings."
Wu Dongxiao chuckled and readily agreed.
The uncle and nephew both understood the implication—once everything was sorted out, it would be time to settle some of the IOUs.
·
The uncle and nephew were chatting, and Wu Dongxiao was grinning like a junior. Wu Chan and Feng Yan were wide-eyed with surprise—they didn't know what to say, so they just kept quiet.
However, after letting go of her lingering feelings for Wu Dongxiao, Wu Chan had time to think about other things.
She thought to herself, "So there are elders like this..."
Among the people Wu Chan knew, all the elders were very serious, especially within the Feng family. Most of the elders looked like they were around middle-aged and often even had beards—even those who looked around thirty still exuded a rather dignified air.
This Zhong Danhuang is nothing like the person in question. He looks like a teenager, and his behavior is just like that of a teenager.
However, Wu Chan thought for a moment and realized that this person was actually not very old. Even among the many young disciples of the Feng family's hidden clan who had reached high levels of cultivation, they had all cultivated for longer than this person. So it seemed reasonable that he was so lively and approachable.
Furthermore, Wu Chan felt that such an elder was novel, and she would probably be happier when spending time with him.
As for Young Master Wu... he was so relaxed in front of such an elder, as if he were a completely different person. Wasn't that because he trusted and respected Emperor Zhong Dan so much?
While listening to the uncle and nephew talking, Wu Chan secretly glanced at the young-looking senior who was still maneuvering the warship and fighting against the cymbals.
·
When Wu Dongxiao sent out a distress signal, he had already introduced his two uncles to Wu Chan and Feng Yan.
Although Fengyan is a reclusive family, they are still well-informed about the outside world. Moreover, since there are Nirvana cultivators in the family, they naturally pay close attention to the Sky Rankings released every month.
Similarly, they all knew how outstanding Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan were as a couple.
After getting to know Wu Dongxiao, Wu Chan and Feng Yan had no idea that Wu Dongxiao was so close to those two people. In addition, Wu Dongxiao himself usually went out on adventures under an assumed name, and he was not on the Sky Ranking or deliberately competed with the geniuses on the Sky Ranking, so he was not very famous. They did not expect that Wu Dongxiao was actually the nephew of Zhong and Wu.
After Wu Dongxiao told them, the two of them immediately realized who Zhong and Wu were, and were quite surprised to discover that Wu Dongxiao himself was of such high status.
Later, Wu Shaogan came over to "arrest" her. Wu Chan was frantically manipulating the defensive artifacts and was initially dazed. She was only brought back to her senses by Wu Dongxiao's cry of "Uncle."
Later, Wu Chan discovered that the famous Zhong and Wu couple actually had such a... personality.
Especially Zhong Danhuang, he's really not serious at all.
And Wu Douhuang...
He was truly a legendary figure.
There are many legends about him, but unlike Zhong Danhuang, who is famous throughout the top continent for his alchemy skills, this man's unparalleled combat power is one aspect, and another aspect is his boundless affection for Zhong Danhuang.
Now that I see him, it's clear that he doesn't really pay attention to anyone, but when he looks at Zhong Danhuang, even his aura softens.
·
As Wu Chan watched Wu Shaogan confront Wan Bo head-on, for some reason, she felt no worry about the current situation.
Perhaps it was because of Wu Douhuang's top reputation, perhaps it was the calmness he was displaying, or perhaps it was the fact that just by this Douhuang standing here, one could vaguely feel... a sense of security.
Wu Chan also saw his unparalleled elegance. Apart from his demeanor, his face was the most handsome she had ever seen, simply indescribable—a face that would make anyone with any aesthetic sense think he was extremely handsome.
She's not blind, so she can see it clearly.
But somehow, even disregarding the fact that the other party was only in love with Zhong Danhuang, just looking at the person himself, Wu Chan felt that she would never develop feelings of love for him.
Instead, they wanted to back down.
Looking at that face for a while, handsome as he was, it was also a little intimidating.
Wu Chan didn't know where this feeling came from. Right now, because Zhong Danhuang was there, Wu Douhuang's temperament was relatively calm and gentle... So, if she really had to say, it was probably from a cultivator's intuitive sharpness.
Instinctively, one will only feel fear towards this person, not love.
Wu Chan glanced at it briefly before looking away, feeling a chill run down her spine.
Perhaps looking at other handsome men is pleasing to the eye, but looking at this one is just deadly.
Wu Chan then thought of Wu Dongxiao.
This man is also a true handsome man, and he has a unique and extraordinary aura.
Looking back now, one can see that he and Wu Douhuang are quite similar. Young Master Wu Dongxiao is very charming, and once you spend time with him, it's hard not to take your eyes off him and admire him... Wu Douhuang, on the other hand, makes people feel that he rejects everyone except Zhong Danhuang... right?
·
After chatting for a while, Zhong Cai said with a smile, "You guys rest for a bit. Dongxiao, give your friend some medicine to heal his injuries. I'm going to check on Old Wu. He's dealing with that old bastard all by himself; he's quite pitiful."
Wu Dongxiao readily agreed.
Zhong Cai seemed genuinely concerned that Wu Shaogan was lonely, so she quickly walked over, her movements light and agile. When she got close to Wu Shaogan, she even showed a touch of... playfulness?
Wu Dongxiao had already taken out several bottles of pills and distributed them to everyone.
While dealing with that old codger Tongtian, they also took the time to recuperate, but ultimately they couldn't find much of a break and were completely exhausted. Now it's a good time for them to rest and recuperate.
Wu Chan and Feng Yan didn't stand on ceremony and each took the pills. As for what they owed each other, they would find another way to make up for it later.
While taking the pills, the group glanced at Zhong and Wu.
They could also vaguely hear a few words of conversation.
"Old Wu, aren't you tired? Fighting this old man must have been tough for you..."
“Ah Cai has also worked hard.”
"Watch me help you! You just dodge! I'll fire!"
"Thanks to you, A-Cai."
"Quick! I remember we have a formation plate, throw it out to control him! Then focus our fire on him!"
"I'll do whatever A-Cai says."
"Old Wu..."
“A-Cai…”
Upon hearing this, both Wu Chan and Feng Yan wore somewhat strange expressions.
They glanced at Wu Xuan and the other person, only to see that they looked completely at ease, as if they were used to it.
Wu Chan fell silent.
Therefore, such scenes are very common, which shows that the relationship between the two seniors, Zhong and Wu, is truly very good.
Besides, Senior Zhong Danhuang really... really thinks that Senior Wu Douhuang is someone who gets really tired after fighting for a while... huh?
Although fighting against Tongtian is indeed very mentally taxing, Senior Wu Douhuang's aura is really stable, and he doesn't seem to have used up much energy at all!
This made Senior Zhong very distressed.
So... when the two seniors, Zhong and Wu, are together, is this how Zhong Danhuang always coaxes people?
hiss.
Wu Chan couldn't help but look at Feng Yan.
Feng Yan had grown up with Wu Chan and was deeply in love with her. Moreover, he had noticed Wu Chan's impatience with their engagement and even her feelings for Wu Dongxiao. However, he was a good person and respected Wu Dongxiao's strength and character. He was unwilling to force his beloved, so he tried his best to treat Wu Chan better in order to salvage the engagement without harboring any malicious intentions.
Once aboard the warship, Feng Yan keenly sensed that Wu Chan's feelings for Wu Dongxiao had vanished! This already pleased him greatly. What delighted him even more was that after witnessing the affectionate interaction between the two seniors, Zhong and Wu, Wu Chan gave him a meaningful look!
Feng Yan instantly understood the look in his eyes and was overjoyed!
He immediately said, "Chan'er, I will learn from the two seniors."
Wu Chan nodded in satisfaction.
Wu Dongxiao had never sensed any romantic feelings from Wu Chan; he had only ever thought the engaged couple had a good relationship. Now, after hearing Feng Yan's words to Wu Chan, he grabbed his senior brother's hand, deliberately putting on a deeply affectionate expression, and said in a pretentious tone, "Senior brother! I will learn from your two uncles—"
He deliberately dragged out his words, clearly mocking the young couple.
Xuan Bing: "..."
Seeing Wu Dongxiao's reaction, Wu Chan glanced at Xuan Bing and her lips twitched again.
She had no idea how many times her lips had twitched.
