Chapter 898 King Dong Ling Arrives
On the Lantern Festival, Rong Che took his men out to look for a place all night.
Shanshan seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
This makes people feel heavy.
Xu Shiyun breathed a sigh of relief, as she was worried about her son being away, and also worried that Shanshan would bring disaster to the world.
I was seriously ill.
Lu Chaochao stood under the corridor, hearing the sound of dripping water in her ears, watching the spring rain falling.
"Miss, be careful not to catch a cold." The little maid brought her a cloak and tied it on her.
The north wind was blowing, and the sound of the wind was almost mixed with frightening screams.
She was kneading something with her hands, a shiny, transparent creature, which was the turbid spirit.
The turbid spirit was extremely well-behaved in her hands and posed no danger at all, allowing her to control it.
But he was only obedient in her hands.
Turbid spirits are born with knowledge, are violent by nature, and grow very quickly after devouring human desires.
"I don't know what's wrong with the sky. It's been grey all day. It feels like there's a layer of gauze covering my eyes and I can't see clearly." The maid muttered softly. It has been a long time since she saw the blue sky. The sky was gloomy all day, which made people feel bad.
Lu Chaochao shook her head slightly. These were not dark clouds at all.
This is foul air that is so abundant that it cannot be hidden and is visible to the naked eye.
Turbid air has filled the entire world.
Qi Jue is the incarnation of a turbid spirit. The heavier the turbid air, the more evil thoughts he absorbs, and the more powerful he becomes. On the contrary, it will be weaker.
He had not absorbed any turbid air in the past few years and had become increasingly weak, which was one of the reasons why he left.
Once he absorbs the turbid air, he will gradually lose his original heart and his reason.
Also, there is the feeling of the emergence of new turbid spirits.
In the three realms, there will never be two turbid spirits existing at the same time. They will devour each other and become the sole king.
"Aci, what do you think the meaning of life is?" Lu Chaochao tilted her head, her eyes clear as she looked at him seriously.
"Everyone is born with a blank sheet of paper, but as time goes by, they will become unreasonable, greedy and suspicious. Everything that was originally beautiful will be broken..."
"What do you think would happen if we returned to the starting point?" she murmured in a low voice.
A Ci didn't look directly at her, but just looked up at the sky.
"No matter what the outcome is, I will always be behind you." I will always follow your will.
If you want this world to be bright and shining, I will be the guiding light.
You are tired of the darkness in this world, and I am the sword that destroys everything.
Lu Chaochao looked back at him and asked, "What day is it today?" She turned and walked towards the main courtyard.
"Today is the twentieth day of the first lunar month."
"How long have I been back?" she asked again.
"Almost two months..."
Lu Chaochao paused as she entered the room and hummed softly.
When Xu Shiyun saw her come in, she asked someone to open the window to disperse some of the medicinal smell in the room.
"It's all because of mom's poor health. She always makes Chaochao worry..." Xu Shiyun couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw her daughter. She didn't know how her daughter had been living these past six years.
She is such a afraid child.
When I was young, I would cry loudly when I grabbed the hot elbows with my little hands.
Their little hands were broken, and they opened their tearful eyes and asked others to blow on them.
How did she endure the pain of two sacrifices?
After the sacrifice, where did she endure loneliness and severe pain before finally waiting for the hope of returning home? She couldn't think about it, or she would collapse.
"Mom, don't worry about Shanshan. Shanshan... is living a good life and hasn't done anything bad." At least, she hasn't done anything bad for now.
It takes some effort to absorb the foul air.
Xu Shiyun held her hand, looking nervous and fearful, "Don't... don't use that power."
Lu Chaochao nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you. I also want you to get better soon..."
Xu Shiyun felt relieved after hearing her affirmative words, but she was also worried that she would be discovered by the higher realms.
Lu Chaochao got up with her and drank some ginseng soup, and then they heard a noisy sound coming from outside the door.
Dengzhi frowned slightly, stood up and walked out, lowering his voice and asking, "Go and ask what's going on in the outer courtyard. Madam is recovering from illness, why is there such a noise?"
Before the maid who was asking the question could even walk out of the courtyard, she saw the doorman rushing in with a bruised face.
The sight of blood on his face frightened Dengzhi so much.
"You're going to die! If you rush in like this and scare the madam, you'll be in trouble! Just report outside the door!" Dengzhi's eyes were stern, and the doorman knelt down trembling.
"Aunt Dengzhi, something happened."
"There's a fight at the door!"
"For some reason, the King of Dongling barged into my Rong Mansion without a visiting card."
"Today, the general went out to look for Master Shanshan, and the three masters went out to attend the court early. There were only female relatives in the mansion, and I didn't dare to let him in. So I sent someone to the palace to report to the three masters. Who knew that King Dongling..."
"They rushed straight into the mansion without caring about anything. The secret guards in the mansion showed up and started fighting with them at the door."
Xu Shiyun was stunned for a moment when she heard King Dongling's words in the house, and then she remembered Xuan Jichuan who was a hostage back then.
"Why did he offend the Rong family? Is it because of a disagreement in the court?" Logically speaking, he and Chao Chao have quite a bit of history, and even a great favor to each other.
If it weren't for Chao Chao's kindness and protection, he would not have lived to return home.
The doorman lowered his voice and said, "The eldest master has personally instructed that no one from Dongling is allowed to enter the mansion."
All small matters in the mansion were handled by Dengzhi, while major matters were handled by Wen.
Although the Wen family has the support of the Rong and Lu families, they are still inferior to King Dongling. At this moment, he also hurriedly came to invite Xu Shiyun.
Xu Shiyun had already changed her clothes and was looking at Chaochao who was following her out with a slight frown on her face.
"Chao Chao is a grown-up girl now. You can't just follow me around and see other men. Go back to your room and rest. I'll take care of it."
Seeing Lu Chaochao frowning, he patted her hand and comforted her, "Even if he is the King of Dongling, he wouldn't dare to touch mother." This is Beizhao, and he won't be allowed to act wildly.
"Besides, the palace is only half an hour away from here, and your father and brothers will be home soon."
When Xu Shiyun arrived at the door, King Dongling's face was already stained with blood, and even his eyelids were splashed with blood. There were a few monks standing beside him, and they looked serious.
Xu Shiyun saw it from afar and was a little frightened.
The madness in Xuan Jichuan's eyes and his desperate momentum made her a little afraid.
There is something in this mansion that he must get.
Xu Shiyun's eyelids trembled slightly, and she frowned to hide the emotions in her eyes.
Before she could utter the words of calling for an explanation, King Dong Ling saw her and casually threw the sword in his hand to the ground. The long sword fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
His appearance made Xu Shiyun even more alert.
"Jichuan was in danger back then, and it was thanks to the Lu family that he came to his rescue. I was planning to go into the mansion to thank the Madam, but I didn't expect this blind servant to block my way. I hope you will forgive me for offending you, Madam."
He even smiled a little, becoming polite and gentle.
He is the king of a country, and he made such remarks. If Chao Chao hadn't been in the mansion, Xu Shiyun would have welcomed him in out of both emotion and reason.
But at this moment, she stood firmly at the door.
"Killing my guards and trespassing, is this your Majesty's way of saying thank you?"
"I don't deserve this thank you."
