Chapter 1021: Fighting for Favor



With nothing to do, Zhou Yuanyuan and Wen Ziqing decided to go to the small garden on the roof and sit for a while.

Zhou Xi had built a small garden on the roof of General Zhou's house. Sitting among the flowers, smelling their fragrance, feeling the gentle breeze, and drinking tea in his free time was truly a delight. Most importantly, the rooftop garden wasn't often visited, making it a perfect spot for Zhou Yuanyuan and Wen Ziqing to chat privately.

Wen Ziqing was in a good mood. He was filled with anticipation at being able to spend time with the girl he loved, even if all he said was nonsense. After being away from home for several months, Wen Ziqing couldn't get enough of seeing Zhou Yuanyuan.

The two of them were holding hands and walking to the corner of the stairs in a loving manner when the Chaos Pearl came back.

"Master, master, Hu Sanniang said that she has recovered the demonic power in her body. She asked you when you will let her come out to work!" Chaos Pearl reported to Zhou Yuanyuan in a chattering voice.

In fact, Hu Sanniang’s original words were: “The demonic power in Sanniang’s body is not a problem, she can serve the master at any time.”

However, in order to prevent Hu Sanniang from suppressing it, Chaos Pearl did not intend to tell the truth.

"Well, that's great. You let Hu Sanniang wait, I'll find her when I have time." Zhou Yuanyuan felt very satisfied with the answer.

However, Zhou Yuanyuan planned to think carefully about Ma Yulian's matter before deciding what to do. Should she give her mother a heartbreaking experience? Or should she just drive Ma Yulian away from Zhao Yunxiang?

Ma Yulian was able to deceive Zhao Yunxiang, to put it bluntly, it was all Zhao Yunxiang's own fault. Zhou Yuanyuan pieced together what she had learned and realized that Ma Yulian took advantage of Zhao Yunxiang's eagerness to see Hu Sanniang and pretended to be Hu Sanniang's cousin.

Zhao Yunxiang's kindness and negligence were the cause of Ma Yulian's incident. Zhou Yuanyuan hadn't decided yet whether to let her mother see Ma Yulian's ugliest side, so as to prevent Zhao Yunxiang from encountering such a thing again in the future.

"Master, master, does Zhuzhu need to contact Little Mirror? Little Mirror has been away for many days, which is too unreasonable." In order to show its ability, Chaos Pearl spared no effort to step on the little friend beside it.

"Grandma Zhuzhu, please step away now! My master and your master are in love! Your chattering ruins the mood." Kong Ming couldn't stand it any longer. The words "love" and "romance" were something Kong Ming had learned during his thousands of years with the Nawa tribe. Nawa young men and women who fell in love would travel to the temple to pray for Kong Ming's blessing. Compared to the clueless Chaos Pearl, Kong Ming was more experienced in love.

Kong Ming discovered that ever since Wen Ziqing came to Zhou Yuanyuan's side, his aura had changed from icy cold to warm. When Wen Ziqing's aura became warm, the aura in his sea of consciousness became very comfortable for Kong Ming. Kong Ming liked Wen Ziqing's warm aura and didn't want to be cold all day.

"Go, get out of here, Little Stone! I'm warning you, don't look for trouble!" The Chaos Pearl was furious. What "love"? What kind of romance? Could it be more important than doing things for its master?

Zhou Yuanyuan couldn't hear the argument between Chaos Pearl and Kong Ming. Seeing Chaos Pearl's aura becoming a little irritable, she thought Chaos Pearl was angry about Qiankun Mirror's long absence. She quickly comforted Chaos Pearl, "Zhuzhu, it's okay. There's no need to rush the little mirror. It's just a friendly favor. It's not ours."

Oh, yeah! I forgot the little mirror wasn't part of the group. No, no, no, the little mirror was part of the group, but it wasn't the master's spiritual treasure yet. Tsk, tsk, tsk... The little mirror is so silly! It can eat "spiritual stones" by following its master! How wonderful!

"Aunt Zhuzhu, does your master give you spirit stones to eat? I'm so envious!" Kong Ming heard Chaos Pearl mumbling to herself, and his eyes turned green with envy.

What's most important to the Lingbao clan? Energy, of course! If its owner could use lots of Lingshi to cultivate, it would definitely advance faster! Kong Ming fell into endless reverie.

"Go away, what's it to you? My master has spirit stones, not yours." Chaos Pearl said arrogantly. Although, Chaos Pearl felt a little guilty when she said this, no, she felt very guilty. You know, Zhou Yuanyuan had even revisited the secret realm she didn't want to go to for Wen Ziqing. If Wen Ziqing asked for spirit stones, her master would definitely give them to her... right?

"Aunt Zhuzhu, my master is from the same family as your master. My master always looks forward to your master growing up quickly so that they can get married! Men and women are a family after marriage. According to human rules, a family's property can be shared!" Kong Ming couldn't help but "vindicate" his master.

Is there such a thing? Does that mean... that in the near future, there will be another broken stone competing with me for favor and spirit stones? Chaos Pearl fell into deep thought.

Zhou Yuanyuan and Wen Ziqing went to the roof hand in hand, only to find that the small garden they had liked had been "occupied" by someone else.

Wen Ziqing wailed inwardly: Why is General Zhou here? How can I kiss my beloved little girl with him around?

[No more random thoughts.] Zhou Yuanyuan's consciousness transmitted the message.

[I didn't use telepathy, Yuanyuan, how do you know what I'm thinking?] Wen Ziqing was stunned.

[I won't tell you.] Zhou Yuanyuan glanced at Wen Ziqing proudly. She wouldn't tell Wen Ziqing that there was a "little traitor" in his family. Well, next time, she'd have Chaos Pearl ask Kong Ming if Wen Ziqing ever thought about other girls when she wasn't around.

While Wen Ziqing was lost in thought, Kong Ming in his sea of consciousness was spinning in panic. "Damn it, damn it, Aunt Zhuzhu, how could you tell your master what my master is thinking in private? I wonder if my master will punish me if he finds out?"

"Tsk! Little Stone, you dare to say that? Are you afraid of being found out?" Chaos Pearl's tone was almost arrogant. Kong Ming wanted to compete for his master's favor in the future? He would start plotting against him now! Make his master hate him! "Little traitor"? Wahahahaha... applauding his cleverness!

Kong Ming was furious but dared not speak. He could only hide aside, drawing circles and cursing the Chaos Pearl.

When Zhou Yuanyuan and Wen Ziqing reached the rooftop, General Zhou's eyes lit up. Every time he saw this handsome and beautiful pair, General Zhou couldn't help but feel a little proud. A phoenix tree in the house attracts phoenixes! His Xiaoguai was that phoenix tree, and Wen Ziqing would be coming to the Zhou family to marry into the family. That way, he wouldn't be afraid of the Zhou family's decline after his death. Ziqing was a natural-born general! He was much more talented than his Zhixin.

"Come, my dear great-granddaughter, my dear great-grandson-in-law, come and chat with me, an old man." General Zhou sat on a rattan chair, smiling and waving at Zhou Yuanyuan and the others.
