"It's alright, Sister Wanke. Chu Yu really won't do anything to Tu Er, so don't worry." Hua Zheng finished speaking and saw Chu Yu return alone.
Hua suddenly felt that the spiritual fruit in her hand was no longer sweet. Could Chu Yu have really killed Tu Er and then disposed of the body?
She quickly ran up to him, grabbed Chu Yu's arm, and asked nervously, "Chu Yu, you didn't really...do you?" Chu Yu was sometimes very curious about what was going on in that little brain of hers.
Intentionally teasing her, he asked with a half-smile, "What do you think, Liao Liao?"
Hua looked at Chu Yu with a rich expression and said, "I think you definitely wouldn't stoop to the level of a childish devil like Tu Er."
Chu Yu deliberately teased, "That's not necessarily true. It's because he just caused some trouble."
Hua looked embarrassed and pretended to be magnanimous, saying, "Oh, it's nothing. I won't hold it against him. I'm a mature and steady girl..." Hua quickly took back the words "little goddess" that were on the tip of her tongue.
"Chu Yu, is my master alright?" Wan Ke couldn't help but step forward and ask Chu Yu when she saw that Tu Er was not behind him.
Chu Yu looked at Wan Ke seriously, "He's fine, he's in the back, he should be back soon."
Wan Ke said to Chu Yu with a slight apology, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble. Master doesn't mean any harm. He's just a straightforward person. Please forgive him."
Seeing Wan Ke speak up for Tu Er like this, Hua felt bad and quickly said, "Sister Wan Ke, you don't need to speak up for Tu Er. We all know what kind of person he is. Chu Yu was just giving him a slight reminder. There's no need to be so formal."
While they were talking, Tu Er finally arrived late. Wan Ke was worried that Tu Er was arrogant and might not listen to Chu Yu. Unexpectedly, Tu Er did not come to them after returning, but went straight to Gu Xi's side.
I don't know what they said, but not long after, Gu Xi came over with Tu Er. Wan Ke thought to herself, it seems that Chu Yu's method is still useful. That's good, after all, we will be traveling together.
Seeing Tu Er's transformation, Hua Hua secretly admired Chu Yu's methods. It wasn't easy to get Tu Er to obey. She wondered what method Chu Yu had used. Hua Hua stole a glance at Chu Yu with her big eyes. She really wanted to learn!
After the little incident, it was already midnight. Everyone made do with resting under the trees. There were still so many demons around, and Hua didn't want them all to go into the courtyard and make a mess of it. So she simply leaned on Chu Yu's shoulder and fell asleep.
The forest was not peaceful at midnight. Chu Yu's divine sense covered the entire forest, and the fighting sounds that had been going on all night had stopped. In addition, there were the sounds of startled birds and beasts. After Chu Yu realized that Hua was not sleeping soundly, he decisively sealed Hua's five senses temporarily so that she could get a good night's sleep.
Hua was woken up the next morning by Qi Lian and Tu Er's voices. When she opened her eyes, she didn't see Chu Yu and didn't know where he was. She also didn't see Gu Xi.
"Qilian, you're awake. How are you feeling? Are you feeling any better?" Hua stretched out her body and walked over to Qilian and the others, asking about Qilian's condition.
Hearing Hua's voice behind him, Qi Lian happily ran towards her, "Sister Hua, I'm fine now. I feel much better today. Why didn't you sleep a little longer? Did we wake you up by talking?"
Huahua looked at Qilian, who was looking up at her with her little face, and the slight unpleasantness of being woken up disappeared. "No, it wasn't because of you. I woke up on my own," Huahua replied to Qilian with a smile.
When Wan Ke saw that Hua had woken up, she called Hua over and said, "Liao Liao, this morning Tu Er and Xu Feng found some fresh fruit. It tastes pretty good. I saved some for you. Try it."
Wan Ke knew, of course, what good things Hua had never seen before, but after all, it was Tu Er's thoughtful gesture, and when Hua got her hands on these wild fruits from the mountains, she realized she had never seen them before.
It was a small, bright red fruit. Hua looked at Wanke with some hesitation, "Sister Wanke, what kind of fruit is this? Is it delicious? Is it sweet?"
Wan Ke knew that Hua had always lived in the God Realm. Judging from Chu Yu's meticulous care for her, she knew that Hua's food, clothing and daily necessities in the God Realm were probably top-notch, unlike her and Tu Er. Although Tu Er was the prince of the Demon Realm, they had experienced many things in order to survive when they were young.
Wan Ke smiled and explained to Hua, "Liao Liao, this is called a red fruit. It's the most common fruit in the mountains. We usually pick some of these when we need to eat." Wan Ke and Tu Er haven't achieved complete fasting like Chu Yu, and they still need to eat sometimes.
Hua looked at the red berries in her hand. They looked quite delicious, but she wondered how they would taste. She took a small bite, squinted her eyes, and nodded. Hmm, the taste was alright.
After eating several meals without seeing Chu Yu, they couldn't help but ask Wan Ke and the others, "Sister Wan Ke, where's Chu Yu? And we haven't seen Gu Xi either."
Tu Er sat down and took over the conversation, saying, "They went to check the situation ahead."
"what happens?"
Tu Er said nonchalantly, "It's nothing serious. We heard fighting around dawn, and it was quite close to us, so they went to see what was going on."
Hua frowned after hearing Tu Er's words and asked, "How come I didn't hear anything?"
Tu Er suppressed a slight pang of jealousy and said, "The activity didn't stop all night; even Qi Lian was woken up. Only you slept so soundly."
Speaking of this, Tu Er felt a pang of jealousy. Among those of them who were out and about, who could really fall asleep at night? They had to be constantly aware of their surroundings and could only close their eyes slightly to rest. If they dared to sleep as soundly as Hua, they might not even know how they died.
Sigh, is this the confidence that comes from having a powerful backer? They can be so fearless even in this dangerous Primordial Chaos Realm!
After hearing what Tu Er said, and seeing Wan Ke and Qi Lian smiling at her, Hua felt a little embarrassed. After thinking for a moment, she understood.
Chu Yu must have done something to prevent her from hearing any sound. Otherwise, even Qi Lian, who was injured, would have been awakened, and she would have reacted before.
Hua lowered her head and stopped asking questions, obediently eating the red fruit in her hand. After eating several more, she finally saw Chu Yu and Gu Xi return.
She hurriedly got up and walked towards Chu Yu and the others. The little goddess was bathed in the morning light, with a sweet smile on her face. She held a half-eaten red fruit in her hand, and the little bell on her head jingled with each step. She was so beautiful that Gu Xi was slightly lost in thought.
As the flower brushed past him and stopped in front of Chu Yu beside him, the light in his eyes dimmed instantly. The little goddess was wonderful, but unfortunately... she wasn't his...
