At the same time, outside the Primordial Realm, in a remote part of the world membrane, a ball of black light suddenly appeared. As the black light surged, Ye Bai, who had fought Zhou Xingdou for several rounds in the Universal Holy Land, slowly emerged from the black light.
Ye Bai opened his pupil-less, jet-black eyes and gazed into the Primordial Realm. The corners of his eternally cold lips twitched slightly.
“Interesting. I look forward to seeing you again, Stephen Chow.”
But at that moment, a hunched, dark figure surged up from behind Ye Bai, his voice aged and pleading:
"Young Emperor, it's time to go back. Chuyuan is extremely dangerous. If Your Majesty knew you were here, I'm afraid this old servant's life would be in danger, and I would no longer be able to serve you."
The shadowy figure's words caused Ye Bai's loosened lips to press down again, leaving only a deathly coldness as he coldly replied:
Let's go.
Upon hearing Ye Bai's words, the dark figure seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and an ominous black light suddenly flashed, enveloping the two figures.
When the black light dissipated, the two figures had vanished without a trace, leaving no trace of their presence. Their figures had been erased from the annals of time, as if they had never existed.
…………
The sun and moon revolve.
After an unknown period of time, the giant star chariot finally broke through the void and landed within the Zhou family's territory.
It's not that the nine ancient dragons of the Void weren't putting in their effort, nor is it that the Starry Sky Chariot was moving slowly; it's simply that Zhou Xingdou was too powerful.
Zhou Xingdou's delayed appearance forced Chen Nong, who was driving the chariot, to move the giant star chariot at a snail's pace through the void.
This caused what should have been a short journey to take several hours.
As the giant star chariot descended, Zhou Xingdou slowly stepped out. He then saw a beautiful figure rushing towards him from afar. Zhou Xingdou smiled slightly, opened his arms, and in an instant, a soft jade was drawn into his embrace.
Luo Hanyi's aloof and peerless face also came into view, but a trace of worry lingered between her brows. She gently stroked Zhou Xingdou's chest with her jade-like hand and said:
"After being gone for so long, did you encounter any danger during this encounter?"
Zhou Xingdou gently rubbed Luo Hanyi's cheek and softly said:
"There was no danger at all; I just chatted with Wan Tianzhou for a while."
Although Zhou Xingdou had been in the Martial Soul World for ten days, for Luo Hanyi, it had only been one or two days.
But the two had only been in a sweet relationship for a short time, and even this short separation felt like an eternity to Luo Hanyi, who wished she could be glued to Zhou Xingdou every minute of every day.
Zhou Xingdou naturally wouldn't tell Luo Hanyi about his experiences these past few days, since it would only cause her heartache and sorrow, so it was better to just pretend it never happened.
Hearing Zhou Xingdou's words, the worry between Luo Hanyi's brows gradually faded, but suddenly her beautiful eyes narrowed, and she sniffed Zhou Xingdou several times, her expression suddenly becoming suspicious:
Why do you smell like a woman?
Zhou Xingdou's heart skipped a beat. Qing Yanjing's assistance with his cultivation had just ended when Zhou Xingdou stepped out of the Starry Sky Chariot. He had also been feeling somewhat tired recently and had forgotten to cleanse himself of the fragrance.
But who is Zhou Xingdou? He can lie and make up reasons without batting an eye, and he said very seriously:
"When I was at the Holy Land of the Universe, I had a conversation with Our Lady of the Universe. We were probably quite close, so I must have accidentally gotten some on myself."
However, remembering that Qing Yanjing was still inside the Starry Sky Chariot, Zhou Xingdou added:
"Perhaps it's because of Aunt Jing's aura. Don't worry, I wouldn't have the energy to flirt with other women in such a short time."
Luo Hanyi stared intently at Zhou Xingdou for a long time. Seeing that his expression remained unchanged and there was no sign of him lying, she finally felt relieved.
But then, with a hint of suspicion, he asked Zhou Xingdou:
"Aunt Jing? Who is that?"
Stephen Chow looked nostalgic and sighed:
"My friend's mother came to Chuyuan from another world to avoid trouble. I happened to be short of manpower, so she stayed to help me with my cultivation."
Seeing that Zhou Xingdou said it was the mother of an old friend and called her Aunt Jing, Luo Hanyi felt relieved. After all, in her eyes, Zhou Xingdou shouldn't be so beastly as to harm the mother of an old friend.
Although Luo Hanyi dispelled her doubts, she still asked Zhou Xingdou:
"Why don't I see her? Since she's an elder, I should at least meet her and show her the proper respect."
Zhou Xingdou shook his head slightly and sighed:
"When we came to Chuyuan from another world, Aunt Jing was seriously injured. She is currently in seclusion in the giant chariot to recover, so we did not disturb her."
After saying this, Zhou Xingdou pulled over Xiao Zuanfeng, who was standing to the side stunned by Zhou Xingdou's sweet talk, and pointed at Xiao Zuanfeng, saying:
"This demon came to Chuyuan with Aunt Jing. You can ask it if you don't believe me."
Little Drill Wind was slightly taken aback, but seeing Zhou Xingdou's smiling eyes and sensing the three dangerous auras behind him, he revealed a smile that was more like a grimace:
"Yes, yes, Your Majesty is right, that is indeed the case."
Chen Nong also seized the opportunity to speak:
“Young mistress, there is no need to worry. This old servant has been watching over the young master all the way. He has never been involved in any philandering.”
Qing Yanjing did indeed come from another world seeking refuge, and suffered considerable injuries. She needs some time to recuperate in seclusion, so she should not be disturbed.
With Xiao Zuanfeng and Chen Nong vouching for her, Luo Hanyi didn't ask any more questions. She just glanced at Xiao Zuanfeng, then frowned at Zhou Xingdou and said:
"This demon... is so ugly..."
Seeing that Luo Hanyi was no longer pressing the matter, Zhou Xingdou was overjoyed and then kicked Xiao Zuanfeng.
"Get out of my way, you're so ugly you're making my wife sick!"
Little Drill Wind looked completely bewildered, watching Zhou Xingdou coaxing Luo Hanyi away, and felt like crying.
So what if I'm ugly!
Did that ugly thing eat your rice?!
Didn't you drag me here to testify?
At that moment, that familiar, warm hand patted Xiao Zuanfeng's shoulder again, making his resentful mood pause instantly, and his hair stand on end.
"Little one, come with me, I'll treat you well."
Tianyin's slightly rough voice rang in Xiaozuanfeng's ears. Now he was getting impatient to study this transformed otherworldly monster properly.
The small drill trembled, and a bead of cold sweat slid down its forehead.
Can I refuse?
"Don't worry, you will never be in danger; on the contrary, it will be of great benefit to you."
How could Tianyin let Xiaozuanfeng go? After all, Zhou Xingdou's consent had already been obtained, so Xiaozuanfeng's opinion was no longer important.
Having said that, before Little Drill Wind could react, Tian Yin exerted a slight force with the hand that was patting Little Drill Wind's shoulder, lifting Little Drill Wind's body straight into the sky.
Chen Nong raised an eyebrow, exchanged a few glances with Wei Luosheng and Yuchi Li, and then went about his business.
Seeing everyone leave one by one, Luo Hanyi's originally gentle demeanor turned cold, and a hint of anger appeared on her already aloof face.
The delicate hand that had been gently caressing Zhou Xingdou's chest now gripped his ear, her eyebrows furrowed, and a sharp glint flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"You're full of lies. Do you really think I'm that easy to fool?"
