Chapter 753: Entanglement
Although it was only a few days, Lu Yichen still stayed with Zhong Nian Yao in Qingqiu for almost half a month before returning to the divine realm above the nine heavens.
Mengdie naturally came along as well, as Zhong Nianyao had promised her before.
Whether it was the days after returning to the God Realm or the days before in Qingqiu, everything was peaceful and nothing happened. It even made people wonder if the disappearance of the immortals before was just an overthinking. In fact, these immortals were just going there to practice!
After Lu Yichen finished his business, he saw Zhong Nian Yao in the garden of Yihua Palace.
At this moment, Zhong Nianyao was sitting in the pavilion, with nectar and some snacks placed in front of her. She rested her chin on one hand, looking at the flowers outside, looking a little bored.
As for Mengdie, she stood behind Zhong Nianyao. Perhaps she didn't want to disturb her, so she didn't speak to her.
"You're back?" Zhong Nianyao immediately noticed Lu Yichen approaching. She chuckled and said, "You handled your affairs quite quickly!"
Lu Yichen waved his hand and let Mengdie go down first.
Mengdie was also a person with good eyesight and immediately retreated.
Lu Yichen sat down on the stool next to Zhong Nianyao and said, "Yuanhao and Linxi are back."
"Linxi?" Zhong Nianyao smiled and said, "He's back too! So who's guarding the border between the Demon Realm and the God Realm now?"
Yuanhao and Linxi were Lu Yichen's right-hand men. In the past, Lu Yichen was the master of the Divine Realm, but he was naturally aloof and never took these matters to heart. More accurately, in his heart, the Divine Realm wasn't that important. Yuanhao and Linxi handled most of the Divine Realm's affairs.
Later, before Lu Yichen was about to reincarnate, Yuanhao went to guard Hell, and Linxi was sent to guard the border between the God Realm and the Demon Realm.
It was also because of this reason that Weiruo had the opportunity to help manage some of the affairs of the God Realm during these ten thousand years. Otherwise, according to her status and position, she would not have been qualified to do so.
"No need to guard it anymore." Lu Yichen's tone was filled with calm confidence. "Now that I'm back, the Demon Realm won't have any chance of entering the God Realm. What's more, I've already reinforced the barrier. As long as there's anything unusual in the Demon Realm, I'll know immediately."
He hadn't previously cared much about the affairs of the divine realm. Or rather, he simply had no interest in anything. A god born since the dawn of time, he had seen and experienced so much, and so was indifferent to everything.
However, after meeting Zhong Nianyao, all this changed. He discovered that there were so many interesting things in this world, and there was also a person he absolutely could not let go of.
Even though they had been through so much, they were still together, and that was what mattered most. Whether for Zhong Nianyao or for their future, he would ensure a peaceful and tranquil life in the divine realm.
Zhong Nianyao nodded, and did not continue to dwell on this question. Instead, she sighed helplessly, "During this period of time, there has been no news of Xiaoxian's disappearance!"
"Indeed." Lu Yichen said, "The entire God Realm is now much more secure. The people behind this probably won't dare to act rashly."
"Alas..." Zhong Nianyao shook her head helplessly, "The security is so tight now. Anyone with a bit of common sense would not take action again. However, if we are not on guard, I am afraid that Xiaoxian will get into trouble again."
"Don't worry!" Lu Yichen reached out his hand, patted Zhong Nianyao's shoulder, and said, "Whether that person attacks again or not, we will definitely find a way to catch him."
"I hope so!" Zhong Nianyao smiled and continued, "By the way, have you found out anything about what happened back then?"
After so many years and so many reincarnations, she could now face the past events with ease. Most importantly, she also understood that what happened back then was just a misunderstanding.
It was because she was too young and impulsive back then that this happened. If she were the one now, she would definitely not be instigated by such a low-level person.
"It's not easy to investigate what happened back then." Lu Yichen frowned and said, "After you got into trouble, I dealt with a large number of people involved. So, it's hard to find out anything now."
After hearing what Lu Yichen said, Zhong Nianyao wasn't surprised. "It's fine if they haven't found anything yet. That's within our expectations. That person was really cautious back then, and it's even possible that he didn't handle it personally. So, it's really not easy for us to investigate now!"
As if thinking of the person behind the scenes, Lu Yichen's eyes flashed with a deep murderous intent, "No matter who that person is, he must be found out."
After finding out, he would never let that person go. It was because of that person that a series of events happened. If it weren't for that person, he and Zhong Nianyao's wedding might have already taken place.
Zhong Nianyao's eyes rolled and she spoke, "The person behind this did so much just to separate us. He even wanted to kill me."
"Now that she sees us back and still being so affectionate, the person behind the scenes will definitely be restless. As long as she makes a move, we'll be able to follow the clues and find that person."
Lu Yichen nodded, then leaned close to Zhong Nianyao's ear and whispered, "Since that's the case, should we show our affection?"
After hearing Lu Yichen's words, Zhong Nianyao's eyes lit up, and then she said with a smile, "I just want to know, do you really want to catch the person behind this? Or do you want to go on a date with me?"
"It's a bit of both!" Lu Yichen said honestly, "After returning to the God Realm, it seems like we've spent less time together!"
"Then let's go out for a walk tomorrow!" Zhong Nianyao had no objection to this. "It's just right. I haven't gone out for a walk for a long time."
After saying that, Zhong Nianyao jumped directly onto Lu Yichen's back. "Let's talk about tomorrow's date tomorrow! We can actually just take a walk in the garden now!"
Lu Yichen did not object to the request made by Zhong Nian Yao.
He stretched out his hand, carefully held Zhong Nian Yao, and then walked around in the garden.
