[She Sees the World] Junior Sister will like this gift.
Chengxiandao is located in Huanwang City in southern Xinjiang. It is far away from the emperor and separated by high mountains. Therefore, this place has outstanding people and a simple and fulfilling nightlife.
Zhou Suyao and his group soon found an exquisitely decorated inn. After entering, Zhou Zonglan waved his hand with a powerful gesture, "Give me two of the first rooms you have here!"
"Two rooms?" Zhou Suyao asked, "Then who should I share a room with?"
"You'll naturally be sharing a room with our eldest brother," Zhou Zonglan said, blinking. "After all, as our junior sister who needs the most protection, you naturally need to live with our most powerful eldest brother."
"Speak less." Behind him, Qu Mingwu said quietly, "Su Yao's martial arts skills are now far superior to yours."
The two superior rooms were located on either side of the top floor of the inn. After the four of them reached the top floor, they said goodbye to each other and went to their own rooms.
When saying goodbye, Zhou Zonglan was still chattering while pulling at his second brother's sleeve. His voice was faintly heard, and seemed to be mixed with words like "you don't understand" and "you are really unromantic".
Zhou Suyao didn't know what they were talking about, but her face felt a little hot.
She followed the eldest brother until they reached the door.
In front of her, the eldest brother opened the door, put away his luggage, and then turned to her and said, "I'll ask the waiter to prepare hot water for you. Take a shower first. I'll be out for a while."
Zhou Suyao was stunned. She had been following the eldest brother, but she had no idea when he had prepared everything for her. After a while, she came to her senses and said softly, "Okay."
Seeing her stunned, Zhou Shanyuan smiled and went forward to touch her head, but she stiffened her neck. She instantly realized what she was about to do and quickly withdrew her hand, admonishing her, "If you have finished your shower and I haven't come back yet, you should go to bed early and don't wait for me."
After giving Zhou Suyao instructions, he slowly walked out of the room. He remembered that the last time he went down the mountain with Zhou Zonglan, Zhou Zonglan once said that there was a pastry shop in the night market of Huanwang City with a wide variety of products and good taste. The osmanthus cake alone had four flavors: sweet, slightly sweet, not sweet, and not sweet with honey.
My junior sister said that the peach blossom cake and peach blossom wine I made before were too sweet. This store has many flavors, so I bought a little of each flavor and brought it back for my junior sister to try.
If there is anything that suits the little junior sister's taste, he will think about it carefully and make some for the little junior sister next time he returns to Chengxiandao.
Thinking of this, he walked out of the inn and followed the crowd to the night market.
I don’t know if it was some important day, but the people coming and going here were all wearing masks of different images.
Monsters and demons, green-toothed ghost faces.
Perhaps it was too noisy, so he did not notice that several black figures were approaching him not far away.
Until he came to a dark alley.
His ears moved slightly and he heard the faint sound of clothes being blown by the wind.
"It's you guys indeed."
He closed his eyes slightly, but did not avoid it.
Hearing his words, several people on the eaves jumped down one after another. These people were wearing black tights and had ghost masks similar to those of the people on the street.
Seeing this, Zhou Shanyuan sighed slightly and said softly, "Jiang Luan again?"
"Of course," the leader said, "Shangshen Jiang's predictions have never been wrong. He predicted that you and your group would come here today, and that you would go out shopping for your junior sister, so he specifically asked us to wait here."
"Okay." Zhou Shanyuan shrugged. "This time it's for this reason. Then what about the last time you attacked my junior sister? Did you calculate that kind of prophecy?"
"Last time?" The leader shook his head and said, "Last time, we attacked Ming Luo instead of Zhou Suyao. We could have killed Ming Luo directly, but unfortunately, there was the variable of Zhou Suyao."
"Mingluo is the flesh of a female yin. If she is not destroyed, the curse that the spiritual path cannot be refined by humans will exist forever. It won't be long before the spiritual path will be retaliated by the human path."
"Xun Dan, don't forget your mission in this world."
"A hundred years ago, you didn't destroy Ning Qinggui's soul and force the Three Pulse Flowers to return to the world. You knew the risks involved, but you still let Ning Qinggui's soul go. If it weren't for the Supreme God Jiang's intercession, you would have been banished to the animal realm and reincarnated thousands of times. This time, you must kill Mingluo and destroy her soul. You must not allow Nüyin's body to descend into the human world again."
"As for Zhou Suyao, she herself is a variable. Lord Jiang has made many predictions, but he has been unable to predict her future. Just in case, it is best for you to kill her."
"Xun Dan, Lord Jiang sent us to this mortal world for no other reason. We cannot interfere with the cause and effect of the mortal world. You have ascended less than a thousand years ago and still have connections with the mortal world. You are our last hope in the spiritual world."
"Goddess Jiang instructed us to tell you not to be soft-hearted anymore, and not to be swayed by others."
After saying that, they disappeared in an instant, leaving only a turquoise jade pendant.
He walked forward, picked up the jade pendant, and after seeing the words on it clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank.
——Zi Jin.
This is the name of his biological mother.
After his father ascended to heaven, he always carried this jade pendant with him. Even when he was forced to marry the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven, he kept the jade pendant hidden close to his body. He never took it off for tens of millions of years.
Now...it will appear here...
His eyes instantly turned red, and his gentle mask finally showed a crack.
——In order to force him to submit, this group of so-called spiritual gods even threatened him with his father's life.
He hates it!
He hated these so-called spiritual gods and hated his own inability to resist.
I hate my own cowardice even more.
He held the jade pendant tightly, gritting his teeth, and the pain seemed to bleed.
But only this kind of pain can make him realize that he is still alive.
I am still alive as a human being.
Instead of becoming a puppet of the spiritual path.
After taking a shower, Zhou Suyao leaned against the window, waiting for her hair to dry, while looking for her senior brother on the busy street.
But she waited until her hair was dry, but the eldest brother still didn't come back.
She was a little worried, but when she recalled the skills that her senior brother used to save her, she couldn't help but smile.
After all, it's not her turn as a rookie to worry about the senior brother.
There were two beds in the room, separated by a screen - originally there was no screen, but when the waiter brought it up, he said that a young man had specifically instructed him to do so.
Zhou Suyao knew that the young man the waiter was talking about must be the eldest senior brother.
When people have free time, they have more things to think about.
She suddenly thought of her senior brother again.
She remembered his focused profile as he ground the pollen, the coolness of his fingertips as he brought the peach blossom cake to her lips, and...
And his... golden eyes.
It was not ordinary gold, but a color with a dazzling brilliance.
He seems like a banished immortal, but seems to be hiding many unspeakable secrets.
"But." She thought about it.
The demon clan's resentment was not directed at the eldest brother. Perhaps the man from a hundred years ago was not the eldest brother, or perhaps the demon clan did not hate the eldest brother.
But no matter what...
After all, the eldest senior brother had never done anything to hurt her. Before she traveled through time, she had no family and had never felt such care. It would be great if she could live like this for the rest of her life.
Thinking of this, she curled up the quilt, turned sideways, wrapped herself tightly, and lay down in the most comfortable position.
There is a sound of rain outside the window, as if it is raining.
Did you bring an umbrella with you when you went out? If you didn't, wouldn't you get wet in the rain?
However, his magical powers are so strong that he will definitely not let himself catch a cold.
At night, it started to rain lightly.
Zhou Shanyuan didn't dare to disturb his junior sister's rest, so he cleaned up briefly in the bathhouse downstairs of the inn before going up to the room.
The room was extremely quiet, with only the sound of raindrops outside the window and Zhou Suyao's steady breathing.
He quietly placed the peach blossom cake on the cabinet opposite the bed so that Su Yao could see it as soon as she opened her eyes.
It started to rain on the way back. He held the peach blossom cake in his arms. Even though his clothes were soaked, he was reluctant to let the peach blossom cake get wet.
He couldn't help but smile when he thought of his junior sister's excited expression when she woke up tomorrow morning.
The bad mood caused by the man in black seemed to have cleared up a lot at this moment.
He gently took off his outer robe and lay back on the bed.
His eyelids were heavy, but he didn't dare sleep.
He turned slightly to look at the vague figure behind the screen.
She seemed to be sleeping soundly, her chest rising and falling steadily.
He couldn't see her face clearly, but he still looked at her figure as if he was fascinated.
Jiang Luan once told him that if he used magic power beyond his own, he must immediately feign death and escape, and must not let the people in the world discover his identity.
When his junior sister was trapped in the underworld, he wanted to use the magic of the stars to directly move them out of the underworld, but he remembered Jiang Luan's instructions. In desperation, he had to grit his teeth and self-destruct the elixir in exchange for powerful magic power to rescue them.
After Jiang Luan learned about this, she was so angry that she almost went to the human world to find him, but because he had ascended for many years and had long severed his karmic connection with the human world, she had no choice but to send a message to him and scold him severely.
"Do you know what the consequences of self-destructing your elixir are? You might never be able to return to the spiritual path, and from then on you'd become just an ordinary cultivator in the mortal world... No, no! According to mortal years, you'd have been dead for millions of years! If the gods were to take away your 'god' status, you'd instantly turn into a pile of ashes, without even the chance to become a wandering ghost!"
Even though there was a noise of spiritual creatures communicating in his ears, Zhou Shanyuan was not affected. He sat in the recliner, swaying quietly. The teacup in his hand was almost empty, but he seemed to be still distracted.
Looking back now, he couldn't remember what he was thinking, but it should be...
He looked at the screen, his eyes falling on the person behind it.
At that time, I should be thinking... Fortunately, I don’t have to fake my death to escape, and I can stay on the path to becoming an immortal for a longer time, and I can... spend more time with my junior sister.
The rainy night is dark.
His eyes hurt, but he was reluctant to close them.
He stared at the chaotic figure behind the screen. It seemed that as long as he closed his eyes, everything around him would instantly turn into a dream and disappear.
His back was covered in fine beads of sweat, and his body was tense, as if there was a fire on it.
My lower body hurts.
Realizing the changes in his body, he suddenly closed his eyes tightly, trying to extinguish the immoral desires in his heart.
Don’t think about it… Don’t look at it…
As the eldest senior brother, the person she trusted the most...
You must never have such dirty thoughts towards her.
While thinking this in my heart, my hand couldn't help but move down.
Just as he felt the burning sensation on his fingertips, he suddenly woke up again.
He resisted his desire.
"No, absolutely not..."
He closed his eyes tightly.
"Zhou Shanyuan...you must not...overstep the line."
Zhou Suyao won't accept it.
Heaven and earth... cannot tolerate...
Outside the window, the sound of rain was chaotic, just like his mood, which was in disarray.
Like a tangled silk thread.
He knew clearly that he should not overstep the boundaries, but in his heart he longed to be out of control and do something outrageous and destructive.
In fact, it was he who proposed the plan of taking Zhou Suyao out to travel and enjoy the scenery to his master.
That day, he didn't know what was controlling him, and he broke into the room where his master was practicing, saying that he wanted to take his junior sister out for a walk.
"Su Yao has never been out for a parade since she came to the Immortal Path. No matter what Zong Lan says, I have taken her out to slay monsters. If Su Yao is allowed to see the world, she will easily lose her composure during the sect disciples' competition."
"Having said that, Suyao's body has not yet fully recovered. Taking him out now would be..." The master frowned.
"Master," Zhou Shanyuan interrupted him, "You can rest assured that I am here and will not let Junior Sister get hurt."
After a long while, he finally persuaded his master. Just when he wrote to his master and wanted to leave, his master suddenly called him.
"Bring Ming Wu and Zong Lan with you. They don't go out very often."
"But..." Zhou Shanyuan subconsciously retorted, "What if we all leave, Master, and you are left alone to guard the mountain gate? What if you encounter a dangerous situation?"
The master waved his hand, returning to his nonchalant expression, and said quietly, "With your master here, what are you worried about?"
"...Yes" Zhou Shanyuan paused and said slowly.
Leaving his master's room, he shrugged and quietly complained, "Actually, I'm still quite worried."
After saying that, he bit his finger and slowly wrote a spell on the ground.
An invisible barrier instantly enveloped the path to immortality.
Thinking back now, Zhou Shanyuan couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
For him, days like this are daily routine, but also precious memories from the past thousands of years.
