Chapter 241 First Release "You mean, Master doesn't want to see...
For a moment, the wind died down.
Even though he had received a definite answer from that person, when their eyes met again, Wen Yu still couldn't help but feel dazed.
Song Linsheng...
The clouds and mist on both sides of the jade steps dissipated like spiritual energy, starting from in front of the man and ending at Yu Wenyu's feet, clearing away the obstacles between the two and connecting them unimpeded.
For three hundred years, every time I woke up in my dreams, Song Linsheng would appear like this, tall and graceful, with his sleeves folded.
But in the dream, there were no jade steps or sea of clouds. There was only the lush, evergreen camphor tree in Guanwu Courtyard, casting patches of green on his shoulders. His eyebrows flickered in the mottled light and shadow, and the distance between them was also sometimes close and sometimes far.
At this moment, she and the man were standing above and below each other, looking at each other from a distance. The situation seemed almost the same as it was in the hall of the Netherworld.
Different from the gloomy and dark atmosphere of the Netherworld, the sky outside the Broken Clouds was dim with wandering shadows of clouds, making the entire Heavenly Palace shrouded in a thin layer of gold.
Wen Yu was no longer Meng Po from the Samsara Division, and the person on the jade steps was no longer some nameless immortal...
"Emperor Taihao is conversing with the God Lord at the edge of Broken Cloud."
Chi Huang's instructions were still fresh in his mind, and Wen Yu was not stupid, so he understood after a short pause.
The indescribable shock and the agitation of her heart intertwined, and she didn't know what to do. Instead, she suddenly became numb, her hands and feet stiff, and the blood flowing backward made her stand still.
No matter how much she was unwilling to admit it, no matter how much she couldn't believe it, the facts were already before her.
The man on the jade steps is the master of the Zhuoying Palace in the Eastern Heaven Court, Emperor Taihao.
He...is really not Song Linsheng.
Chi Huang stood in the center. Seeing the current situation, he wavered and couldn't help but take a half step back along with the dispersing clouds.
How could he intervene? To his right was the stunned and silent Wen Yu, and to his left was the unfathomable Emperor.
Tai Hao in white robe remained silent and said nothing, but when his eyes met Wen Yu standing at the jade steps, the frost on his face seemed to melt away for a moment.
The little immortal who had just fallen into a deep sleep due to anger under the immortal tree in Zhuoying Palace.
She woke up.
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but she seemed much more profound than before in the Netherworld Palace.
Why is this so?
Suppressing his curiosity, Tai Hao's fingertips curled slightly in his sleeves. Even when he faced Ju Mang at the edge of Broken Cloud just now, he had never been so... awkward...
He didn't say anything, and Wen Yu didn't respond either. The two of them just looked at each other in silence.
Chi Huang huddled aside, head bowed, brows lowered, feeling anxious as he watched the stalemate. He knew the Divine Lord had a reason for not letting Wen Yu come, but now that he had already run into him, what was he to do?
After some thought, Chi Huang sighed helplessly. He was thinking so much that his head hurt.
Suddenly, clouds surged beneath the silence, and a wind blew from behind Wen Yu, as if invisible hands were pushing her forward.
Her hair was lifted up and all flew to Wen Yu's shoulders, brushing against her cheeks. She looked at the man calmly and steadily with her eyes.
I saw his white robe fluttering and the lotus patterns shining, I saw his brows were cold and his eyes were fluctuating, I saw... his body moved slightly and he stepped towards me.
Wen Yu suddenly moved and walked towards the jade steps with great determination.
In an instant, the two walked towards each other.
Since he was Emperor Taihao, it wasn't surprising that he would say those words to her in the Netherworld Palace's main hall. It was ridiculous that she actually wanted him to attack the Eastern Heavenly Court, break into the Spring Temple, and file a complaint with her master, the Supreme God Ju Mang.
Now that he came as he said, Wen Yu felt dizzy.
Although he was in great confusion, Wen Yu did not retreat as he moved forward step by step.
Even if he is Emperor Taihao, she will still ask her master for clarification.
Their robes fluttered as they moved. Chi Huang, who was in the middle, couldn't help but look around. This scene...
Wen Yu wouldn't necessarily want to fight with Emperor Taihao, would he?
Chi Huang couldn't help but sweat in his heart, staring at Wen Yu's every move with extreme concentration, ready to fly up and stop him at any time.
He was not afraid that Wen Yu would offend Emperor Taihao, but with the Emperor's level of cultivation, he was worried that a casual wave of his sleeve could seriously injure Wen Yu.
The two people walking towards each other gradually approached Chi Huang. He didn't know if he was dazzled, but he always felt that Emperor Taihao was in a hurry and his steps were hurried, and his breathing seemed not steady.
Just like when he rescued Wen Yu in Zhuoying Palace just now...
As the distance got closer, Wen Yu could clearly see Tai Hao's eyes——
As deep as an ancient well, as quiet as a cold pond.
His emotionless eyes met hers calmly, as if nothing could cause a ripple in them.
Wen Yu tried to remain calm, his tense expression refusing to reveal any flaws, and he was even more unwilling to be at a disadvantage.
But just like an eddy on the sea, no matter how calm the surface is, it cannot erase the turbulent waves hidden within.
The dull pain in her heart became more and more obvious as the distance got closer. Wen Yu had to admit that the Emperor Taihao in front of her was definitely not Song Linsheng.
Because Song Linsheng... would never look at her with such indifferent eyes.
Wen Yu suppressed the inexplicable suffocation and inexplicable anger in his chest, and told himself over and over again that this person was Emperor Taihao, the master of Zhuoying Palace.
But the more she understood, the more out of control her emotions became.
Chi Huang was quick to sense that something was amiss with Wen Yu, and a look of worry followed. If Wen Yu had really engaged in a fight, while he would have been uneasy, he wouldn't have found it strange. However, Wen Yu remained silent, her silence eerily so.
The wind was blowing, the fragrant clouds were swirling, and Taihao walked down the white jade steps.
Ever since he called out "Wen Yujun", he hasn't uttered another word.
The white robe moved slightly, and the raised corners of the robe looked like layers of waves, gradually coming to Wen Yu.
Emperor Taihao asked her to stay. What did he want to say to her?
Should he hold her accountable for that rude kick in the Netherworld? Or for her crimes against the Immortal Tree? Or perhaps punish her for her disrespectful act of spying on the Godly Lord just now...
Wen Yu's heart was in turmoil, but her face was very calm. After all, she was no longer the little tree demon who showed her joy on her face.
Once she ascends to heaven, she will be worthy of being called the Immortal Lord Wen Yu by others.
No matter what Emperor Taihao said, she would bear all the consequences.
But she imagined countless possibilities, but the only thing she had never expected was——
Taihao passed by her shoulder.
Her flying hair fluttered and brushed past her ears, and the tingling sensation made the numb Wen Yu tremble.
In an instant, everything was silent.
If you have nothing to say, why call her?
First, she was ignored by the Nether Palace, and then she was teased outside the Broken Cloud Border. What exactly does Emperor Taihao want to do?
After a moment of daze, Wen Yu came to his senses. He stared at the door plaque beside Duanyun without blinking, putting aside all his chaotic thoughts.
Since he is not Song Linsheng, there is no need to look sideways.
When her nails dug into her palms, Wen Yu's mind became clear. She needed to find her master urgently.
As the two of them walked one way and gradually went away, the clouds on both sides seemed to have been pardoned, and immediately spread all around, overlapping and surging.
Chi Huang crouched in the mist and turned his eyes slightly until Emperor Taihao's white robe almost blended into the sky. Chi Huang hurriedly caught up with Wen Yu.
"Wenyu..." Chi Huang hesitated, his eyes swept across Wenyu's face, and he wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start, "You..."
"Why don't you call me a fire stick?" Wen Yu said jokingly without turning around, but his tone was not relaxed. "Da Huang?"
"Wenyu." Chi Huang said sternly, feeling really reluctant, "I have something to tell you."
Wen Yu hurried up the jade steps without any intention of stopping. "If you have anything to say, wait until I find my master."
Chi Huang wanted to say something, but when he saw Wen Yu's unclear expression, he found it difficult to speak.
At the end of the jade steps, the door of the Duanyun Palace was closed.
"Master..." Wen Yu rushed to the door and called out a little impatiently, "Master, please open the door quickly. I want to see you."
Chi Huang, who arrived later, looked at Wen Yu's back and remained silent for a while with Duan Yunbian, who did not respond.
Only her voice echoed in the wind, and Wen Yu couldn't help but stiffen his back.
"Master?" Wen Yu asked tentatively, raising her sleeve to touch the patterns on the temple door. "Master, it's me."
It was strange. Emperor Taihao had just left from Duanyunbian, and the master should be in the hall. Why didn't he respond to her?
Wen Yu's heart began to beat fast. Could it be that her master was angry with her because she hadn't returned to the Spring Temple for a long time?
Thinking of this, Wen Yu bit her lower lip nervously.
In the past, she could come and go freely in the Temple of Spring. Even her master's residence, Duanyunbian, kept its doors open to her without any defenses. Even if she walked sideways, her master would only smile and tell her to be careful.
This seemed to be the first time she saw the door of Duanyunbian Palace closed, and she was stopped outside.
Wen Yu's chest felt tight and her tense heartstrings suddenly broke.
She could start over by planning when she didn't see Song Linsheng at the Naihe Bridge; she could slowly investigate when she encountered the mysterious Immortal Lord in the Netherworld Palace; she could keep her distance from Emperor Taihao who had returned from nowhere in the Zhuoying Palace.
However, outside the broken cloud, Wen Yu looked at the tightly closed palace door and felt as if he were struck by thunder.
"Master, it's me." Wen Yu's voice wasn't excited, but almost whispered, "I'm Ah Yu."
There was still a silent sound of the wind, and no one answered.
"Master, open the door. I'm A-Yu." Wen Yu knocked lightly on the door and raised her voice slightly, "Master—"
There was no hysteria, only disbelief.
Chi Huang stood behind her, his eyes showing reluctance. After frowning and watching Wen Yu shouting for a long time, he finally grabbed the fur at the corner and stepped forward to stop Wen Yu as if he had made up his mind.
"Wenyu, listen to me." Chi Huang clamped Wenyu's shoulders, "Wenyu."
Wen Yu turned her head when she heard the voice and looked at Chi Huang quietly, "What... do you want to say to me?"
"The Lord God is not in the temple." Chi Huang raised his eyebrows, speaking with difficulty, "The Lord God has ordered that when you wake up, it will be the day he goes into seclusion."
"You lied to me. How could Master not be here?" Wen Yu retorted without hesitation. "Master used his divine power to stop me just now. You clearly saw it with your own eyes."
She could clearly see the green light; it must be the work of her master.
"Besides, Master, if he doesn't retreat in the morning and evening, will he retreat as soon as I wake up?"
Wen Yu didn't know why Chi Huang made up these nonsense to amuse her. It was a different time now and she didn't have the leisure to do that.
Their eyes met, and Chi Huang remained silent.
Rumors circulated between the two of them, and the answer seemed to be about to come out.
Before Chi Huang could say anything, Wen Yu's eyes froze. She realized belatedly that what shocked her more than the unknown immortal being Emperor Taihao was—
"You mean, Master won't see me."
