Chapter 33 Enlightenment "He likes Yue Mingxi and doesn't want to see her sad..."
Autumn has arrived, and the nights are getting cool.
After saying that, Yue Mingxi stood up and said with a smile, "It's getting late, go to sleep."
Wu Shanqing paused for a moment, then nodded slightly. "Okay."
Even after the girl left, Wu Shanqing remained seated in the same spot.
For no reason at all, I started to feel restless.
She clearly said she liked him, so why is she still not happy at all?
Confused and frustrated, Wu Shanqing stood up and prepared to seek outside help.
It disappeared into the bamboo forest and flew towards the temple.
Wu Shanqing pulled Yun Ci off the bed and said coldly, "Monk, get up quickly."
Yun Ci rubbed her eyes and said gently, "Your Highness, is it urgent that you've come to visit me so late?"
Wu Shanqing nodded. "Yes, I'm not happy."
Yun Ci: "..."
After putting on her shoes and standing up, Yun Ci put her hands together and said, "Your Highness, let's go outside to talk."
"Okay," Wu Shanqing said sullenly.
Stepping out of the meditation room, Yun Ci smiled and tilted her head to coax, "Your Highness, why are you unhappy?"
Wu Shanqing pursed his lips and kicked at the newly fallen, withered leaves in the temple. "Yue Mingxi said she likes me."
Yun Ci asked doubtfully, "Isn't this something to be happy about?"
"But I'm not happy at all; on the contrary, I feel very irritable," Wu Shanqing honestly expressed his feelings.
"How could that be?" Yun Ci was completely puzzled. "Could it be that Miss Yue said something else?"
“Yes.” Wu Shanqing nodded. “She said that her feelings for me are just friendly liking.”
Did Your Highness get rejected after confessing your feelings? Yun Ci immediately comforted him, "Your Highness, don't be sad, it will pass."
"?" Wu Shanqing was full of questions.
What are you saying? He can't understand a word you're saying.
Stomping on the withered leaves on the ground, Wu Shanqing said angrily, "You stinking monk, I shouldn't have come looking for you. And rightly so, you're a monk, what do you know?"
I understand, he's just getting angry out of embarrassment.
Yun Ci's gaze softened as she looked at Wu Shanqing, and she patiently comforted him, "Your Highness, these things depend on fate. Don't get angry; anger is bad for your health."
Wu Shanqing snorted, "You stinky monk, coming to find you is the most regrettable thing I did today. Go to sleep."
"Okay." Yun Ci nodded.
After a pause, Yun Ci looked at him with concern. "Is Your Highness's insomnia still the same as before?"
"It's none of your business," Wu Shanqing said sullenly. "I'm leaving."
"Okay." Yun Ci said gently, "Your Highness, there's nothing we can do about this. You must take good care of yourself and not stay sad."
"What are you talking about?" Wu Shanqing's eyebrows furrowed even deeper.
With a deep sigh, Wu Shanqing said seriously, "Don't get involved. You don't even know as much as I do. How's your research on the solution to the elven metamorphosis coming along?"
Yun Ci shook her head. "We haven't figured it out yet, but it'll be soon."
"That's good." Wu Shanqing nodded and said goodbye, "No need to see me off, I'm leaving."
After a pause, Wu Shanqing said hesitantly, "You should take good care of yourself too."
Looking at Wu Shanqing with a relieved expression, Yun Ci nodded vigorously, "I will."
The little dragon he watched grow up has become increasingly intelligent and human-like.
"If you die, who will I ask to help me figure out the solution to the transformation of elves?" Wu Shanqing muttered softly.
Yun Ci: "..."
Oh well, all that emotion for nothing.
After bidding farewell to Yun Ci, Wu Shanqing began his journey to the Demon Realm.
After receiving the incantation, Zuo Zhixuan waited for him at the palace gate early in the morning.
As soon as Wu Shanqing landed, Zuo Zhixuan immediately sidled up to him, "What brings the divine venerable one here?"
Wu Shanqing pursed her lips and told Zuo Zhixuan her question again.
After hearing this, Zuo Zhixuan asked with a puzzled look, "Yes, this is something to be happy about, so why is Your Highness unhappy?"
Wu Shanqing said in a muffled voice, "I don't know either. If I knew, why would I be asking you?"
Zuo Zhixuan scratched his head anxiously, "Your Highness, I don't know what's going on either. How could I possibly guess what you're thinking?"
"You're really useless," Wu Shanqing sneered.
Zuo Zhixuan was heartbroken. "Your Highness, I admire you so much, how could you hurt me like this?"
"I've got it!" Zuo Zhixuan suddenly exclaimed after quickly racking his brains, "I've come up with a solution."
Wu Shanqing immediately asked, "What method?"
Zuo Zhixuan looked at Wu Shanqing expectantly, "Your Highness, as long as you praise me for being smart, I will tell you."
Wu Shanqing: "..."
"You're so smart," Wu Shanqing said dismissively.
Zuo Zhixuan laughed happily, "Your Highness, go find Shangguan Yaotai, she definitely knows these things."
"Really?" Wu Shanqing whispered.
"Yes, yes." Zuo Zhixuan said firmly, "She definitely knows."
"Fine, if she doesn't know, I'll come and settle the score with you right away," Wu Shanqing coldly warned him.
“Okay,” Zuo Zhixuan said, trembling.
It's really not easy to be praised for being smart by His Highness the God. Luckily, he secretly recorded it with the Sound-Following Shell.
After transmitting the incantation to Shangguan Yaotai, Wu Shanqing disappeared from the spot once again.
Shangguan Yaotai hurriedly dressed, tidied her appearance, and left the palace.
Shangguan Yaotai bowed to Wu Shanqing and stammered, "God...Godly Lord, do you need something from me?"
Shangguan Yaotai still remembered the time when Wu Shanqing in the palace warned her that he would cut off her tongue.
Surely we can't have come here just to cut out her tongue, can we?
Calm down, calm down, Shangguan Yaotai breathed softly. She and Xiaoxi hadn't seen each other for a long time, so there was no possibility that she would corrupt Xiaoxi.
Wu Shanqing lowered his head, puzzled, and asked, "What are you afraid of?"
Shangguan Yaotai chuckled dryly, "No...nothing. Did Your Highness need something from me?"
"Yes." Wu Shanqing nodded and asked his question again.
Shangguan Yaotai listened attentively, then smiled and teased, "Your Highness, do you like Xiaoxi?"
Wu Shanqing nodded honestly, "Yes, she is my good friend, and I like her."
Shangguan Yaotai shook her head and smiled, "Your Highness, it's not that kind of liking. I'm talking about liking between a man and a woman."
"Isn't this just attraction between a man and a woman?" Wu Shanqing asked doubtfully. "She's a woman, and I'm a man. Isn't that right?"
Shangguan Yaotai clapped her hands together, laughing so hard she couldn't stand up straight. "Your Highness, are you trying to make me laugh to death?"
"Huh?" Wu Shanqing was full of questions, and said with pursed lips, "Answer my question properly."
It took Shangguan Yaotai a while to stop laughing. "My little prince, although you've just come of age, you've lived for so many years. How can you still be so ignorant? Has no one taught you these things?"
Wu Shanqing was stunned.
Seeing his reaction, Shangguan Yaotai understood.
That's true. This prince lives in a small thatched hut year after year, and few people dare to disturb him.
Even if someone goes, it's always because Wu Shanqing summoned them for something.
Thinking about it carefully, there certainly wasn't anyone who specifically taught the young prince these things.
They were all demons who had lived for tens of thousands of years, and in their eyes, Wu Shanqing was just a child.
Although Wu Shanqing is already an adult this year, they still subconsciously treat him as an exceptionally capable child.
This resulted in him being completely clueless when it came to matters of the heart.
Shangguan Yaotai looked at Wu Shanqing with sympathy and decided to take on the responsibility of being an elder.
"Your Highness, I'm giving you a few popular science books. Please take a good look at them when you get back."
"Okay, thank you." Wu Shanqing said earnestly.
Shangguan Yaotai stood up, sighed softly, and said with pity, "No need to thank us, we neglected you."
I wonder what the young prince has been doing all these years living alone in thatched hut?
Her only impression of the young prince was that he was incredibly powerful and had saved the world twice.
Most of them would admire the young prince, fear his power, and show him great respect in every way.
But upon closer reflection, it seems they never cared about the young prince.
Everyone believed that this was what he, as a deity, should do.
If we convert it to human years, the little prince was only four years old when he first saved the world. He was so young, yet he was able to save the entire world.
The second time, I think she was also quite young, only around ten years old.
Upon reaching the palace and arriving at the bookshelves, Shangguan Yaotai carefully selected books for Wu Shanqing.
After choosing her books, she walked out of the palace and saw Wu Shanqing sitting obediently in a chair, waiting for her.
Shangguan Yaotai felt even more guilty. How had they, the demon, immortal, and demon realms, lived so comfortably all these years?
They also frequently wage war every few hundred years. Isn't this just discouraging the young prince?
Having made up her mind, Shangguan Yaotai decided to go and try to persuade him.
Let's see if we can skip the demon war five months from now.
Shangguan Yaotai handed the book to Wu Shanqing and said with a smile, "Your Highness, here you go. You can ask me if you don't understand anything."
"Okay, thank you. It's getting late, you should get some rest too," Wu Shanqing said, taking his leave.
"Your Highness," Shangguan Yaotai suddenly called out to him.
Wu Shanqing asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Shangguan Yaotai said softly, "You've protected us all these years, thank you for your hard work."
Wu Shanqing paused, "Why are you suddenly bringing this up?"
Shangguan Yaotai smiled and said, "I will give them a good talking-to during the demon war five months from now."
"No need," Wu Shanqing said calmly.
"?" Shangguan Yaotai looked at him in confusion. "Why?"
Wu Shanqing said seriously, "We must fight, otherwise even bigger changes will occur."
"You mean? The world is collapsing again?" Shangguan Yaotai's eyes widened.
Wu Shanqing nodded. "Don't tell anyone. I'm only telling you because you and Yue Mingxi have a good relationship."
Shangguan Yaotai smiled, looking at the books that Wu Shanqing had collected into the void, and suddenly exclaimed, "Your Highness, since you can't see now, are these books useless to you?"
Shangguan Yaotai scratched her head in frustration, "Unfortunately, I don't have any Braille books here."
“It’s useful. I can tell what the character is just by touching it,” Wu Shanqing said calmly.
"Oh, okay." Shangguan Yaotai breathed a sigh of relief. "Goodbye, Your Highness."
"Mm." Wu Shanqing nodded and disappeared from the spot.
Wu Shanqing spent the whole night reading all three books.
The tips of her ears gradually turned red.
Wu Shanqing discovered an obvious truth.
He liked Yue Mingxi, but it wasn't just a friendly liking.
It was not that I wanted to be with her, but rather that I wanted to be with her—the kind of attraction between a man and a woman.
However, as Wu Shanqing gently closed the book, a new worry arose.
The book says that if you like someone, you should be brave enough to confess.
But he already knew her feelings.
She only likes him as a friend.
Never mind, he's going to confess his feelings to Yue Mingxi.
He wanted Yue Mingxi to know his feelings.
Standing up, Wu Shanqing paused again, a new worry surfacing in his mind.
The book says that you can only do these things after you become an adult.
But Yue Mingxi is not yet an adult.
Sitting back down in his chair, Wu Shanqing changed his mind. He would wait until Yue Mingxi came of age before confessing his feelings to her.
With the presence of the Dragon Blood Fruit, Yue Mingxi will live a good life.
Before that, he needs to prepare properly.
In the frigid regions of the snow-capped mountains, the most beautiful flowers in the world grow.
He was going there to retrieve the flower seeds.
Create a sea of flowers for Yuemingxi.
After thinking about all of this, new worries emerged.
Wu Shanqing raised his hand to touch his eyes and sighed softly.
Will Yue Mingxi look down on him because he is blind?
But she won't be able to bear having her eyes removed.
He put the book on his head, and Wushan Qing's head looked huge.
Why does liking someone cause so many troubles?
But what could he do? He still loved her so much.
I like it so much that I don't even want to die.
Wu Shanqing thought that even if the world were to collapse again, he would still go to save it.
But this time it wasn't to save anyone, it was solely for her.
He didn't want to see her sad.
Author's note: I had a headache all day, and when I took my temperature tonight, I found I had a fever! [Clown]
Shangguan Yaotai sighed, wondering what the young prince had been doing all these years living alone in thatched hut.
A: We're busy planting trees to save Yuemingxi, waiting for her to fall from the sky. [Please!]
