Chapter 251 Openness
"Don't cry, I'll help you think of a solution," Hongjun said, reaching out his sleeve to wipe away Chang Hao's tears. But he noticed that Chang Hao's eyes were only slightly red. After a moment's thought, he said, "You're all better already? You can cry, it's okay, I won't laugh at you."
Chang Hao's ability to regulate his emotions was first-rate. Besides, with Hongjun standing right in front of him, how could he cry? Didn't he have any pride?
If you're going to cry, at least hide under the covers and cry secretly.
Seeing that Chang Hao really didn't want to cry anymore, Hongjun laid out a row of jade bottles. "If you want something, just ask me. If you don't have what you want and insist on asking Tongtian, be good. We don't want other people's things."
"The last remaining jade bottle-type innate spiritual treasures of the primordial world are all here. There is no such thing as taking anything for free in this world. If you take something, you must pay the price, understand?"
Hongjun felt that Chang Hao had to keep his distance from the Three Pure Ones. It was alright now that he was around, as they wouldn't go too far. But if he couldn't suppress the Heavenly Dao in the future, the Three Pure Ones would inevitably rise above Chang Hao and act arrogantly. To avoid future trouble, it was better to keep his distance from them.
Hongjun analyzed the future trend of the prehistoric world, feeling displeased. No, he had to help Chang Hao calculate the opportunity to become a saint. Chang Hao had the possibility of obtaining the Primordial Limitless Dao Fruit. Once he obtained the Great Dao, he could turn the tide at any time. At that time, it would be no problem to take down a few Emperors and Xihe, and suppressing the Three Pure Ones would be a piece of cake.
Chang Hao stared at the row of jade bottles in front of him, lost in thought.
"You've been busy collecting jade bottles all day?" Chang Hao pointed to a very familiar jade bottle. Was it the jade bottle that Cihang was holding?
It looks somewhat similar, but it seems that Yuanshi had a similar one in his hand before, and Chang Hao had never examined it closely.
"Yes, didn't you want the jade vase to hold flowers? Where are the hibiscus fruits? Take them out and I'll peel them for you. Honestly, of all people to ask, you have to ask the Three Pure Ones. I'm always free, I'll peel them for you." Hongjun instinctively didn't want Chang Hao to have too much of a relationship with the Three Pure Ones. The thought of the Three Pure Ones becoming the Four Pure Ones was just awful.
Then there were Yuanshi and Tongtian, whose attitudes were strange. Looking at Chang Hao, Hongjun always felt that they had ulterior motives and were not simple.
Chang Hao was about to lose his temper. "You were peeking at me!" This all happened today.
“Yes, I have seen it. You are not the same as before, so of course I have to keep an eye on you at all times. What if someone tries to harm you when I'm not paying attention?” Hongjun said frankly. “As long as Heaven is not in a difficult position, I am watching over you.”
"No, you can't look. At least, you can't look when I'm in Taiwei Palace. That's my privacy." Chang Hao wanted to open Hongjun's skull to see what was inside.
Although his immortal robes remained spotless and his immortal body was immaculate, Chang Hao had the habit of changing clothes, washing and bathing, and sleeping regularly. He lived a refined life, unlike other innate deities who wore the same immortal robe from start to finish!
"I know you're a troublemaker, and you've taken it out on me too. I'm used to it, so you don't need to feel embarrassed." Hongjun gradually developed these habits as well. Of course, from the beginning, he was the one who wore the same immortal robe the whole time.
"That won't do either, you can't look!!!" Chang Hao panicked. How was he supposed to explain the issue of boundaries to Hongjun...?
"I've watched you grow up since you were a child, so why can't I watch you now that you're older? That doesn't make sense." Hongjun remained calm and indulgently looked at Chang Hao, completely baffled as to why Chang Hao was angry again. Was it the difference between being watched passively and being watched actively?
This little guy has always had a terrible temper, and only he can tolerate his bad temper...
"That's different..." Chang Hao was making a scene with Hongjun in Zixiao Palace. He insisted that Hongjun promise not to peek at him anymore, at least not inside Taiwei Palace!
Chang Hao felt that his requirements were already as low as they could possibly be.
"Stop fooling around. The Taiwei Palace has its own shield against the Heavenly Dao, so I can't see it." Hongjun really didn't expect Chang Hao to be so shy.
Forget it, I'd better not tell Chang Hao that he can passively see everything I do inside Zixiao Palace...
………………
Laozi returned to the Eight Trigrams Palace with Yun Zhongzi in his pocket, and Yuanshi immediately greeted him, "Brother, I didn't go to the Taiwei Palace, did Chang Hao...?"
"Yes, I asked you. I'm worried something might have happened to you, so you need to take good care of yourself." Laozi was so annoyed that before Yuanshi could even ask, he threw a string of answers in Yuanshi's face.
"Where is Xuandu?" Laozi decided to act quickly and decisively, for things might change if he delayed.
“Master, Xuandu is here.” Xuandu had been guarding the entrance of the Eight Views Palace. The atmosphere had been so strange before, how could Xuandu dare to leave?
"Prepare a prayer mat..." Laozi glanced at the center of the main hall.
Xuan Du understood that another disciple was about to enter the sect, and quickly took out a futon and placed it in the center of the main hall.
"Second brother, sit down. This is Yun Zhongzi, a disciple that Chang Hao gave you." Laozi released Yun Zhongzi from the tower and said before Yun Zhongzi could speak, "Yun Zhongzi, kowtow and become his disciple."
Yun Zhongzi was confused, but subconsciously obeyed Laozi's words, kneeling on the central prayer mat. He knelt and bowed as Laozi told him to.
"Second brother, what are you still doing? Why don't you let him get up?" Laozi glared at Yuanshi, his eyes filled with daggers. Did he think it was easy for him to deceive Yuanshi by concealing the secrets of heaven? If he kept dawdling, he would be exposed.
"Get up," Yuanshi said, oblivious to anything amiss, and told Yunzhongzi to rise.
Once the bond between master and disciple was established, Yuanshi suddenly turned ashen-faced. "What Yun Zhongzi? This is Hongyun!"
Before he knew it, he had actually taken in Hongyun. Yuanshi was extremely disgusted and left in a huff. He didn't believe at all that Changhao had given him a disciple; it was clearly his elder brother's trick.
Yun Zhongzi stood in the center of the hall, at a loss. Just a moment ago everything was fine, how come his master's expression changed in the blink of an eye?
Xuan Du looked at Yun Zhongzi with pity. He had fallen out of favor as soon as he entered the palace. His second master was truly unpredictable. Life in Yuxu Palace must be unbearable.
"Second brother," Laozi calmly called out to Yuanshi, "If you don't take Fuxi in and don't sever the Three Corpses, I'm worried you won't survive this calamity. I can only try my best to save your life."
"Don't go looking for him either. He went to Zixiao Palace after I left." The moment Laozi left, the dense power of the Heavenly Dao spread throughout Taiwei Palace. It was obvious that this was the work of their master.
"He said he wants you to prove to him whether you have remained the same after severing the three corpses. He will not see you until then." Lao Tzu, an outsider, sees things clearly. Yuan Shi is beyond redemption, and all worries are unnecessary.
On the contrary, Lao Tzu also had to worry that after severing his ego, Yuan Shi would ignore him and Tong Tian, severing the brotherhood that had lasted since the beginning of time.
"I don't believe it." With Hongyun in front of him, Yuanshi suspected that Laozi was deceiving him again.
Laozi had already anticipated Yuanshi's reaction. The next second, Laozi opened his palm, and the Sun Essence Wheel fell from his palm. "He gave it to you. Your elder brother hopes that after you dismember your body, you will personally take it back to him."
