Chen Changsheng thought of a possibility. Earlier, he had rejected his master's proposal of equal wives… so were these two magical artifacts forged from shards of the Clear Sky Mirror meant to be out of praise for him?
Yes, apparently his master had always admired Yourong. He seemed to have mentioned this ten years ago at White Emperor City.
And based on what Yuren said, during his stays in Luoyang during the new-year holidays, Shang Xingzhou would rarely mention Chen Changsheng, but he had mentioned several times that Mount Li was someone else's sect, so Xu Yourong as Holy Maiden shouldn't keep on disturbing them.
If she shouldn't go to Mount Li, where should she go? The Li Palace, or Luoyang?
When he thought about how Xu Yourong was always able to easily gain the love of her elders, Chen Changsheng couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
Shang Xingzhou had thought that it was inconvenient for the two of them to live in different places and made these small devices, but he was not aware that they had resolved this problem long ago.
He and Xu Yourong had a special method of communicating with each other. This was how he had able to inform Xu Yourong at Holy Maiden Peak as quickly as possible when the White Crane flew into White Emperor City.
The glowing stone pearl on his wrist was a Heavenly Tome Monolith.
The Heavenly Tome Monoliths had always been a sort of spatial tunnel. Both the laws of the Mausoleum of Books and the method to enter the Garden of Zhou were proof of this.
In these ten years, he and Xu Yourong had been incessantly researching and comprehending the Heavenly Tome Monoliths, finally grasping a part of their mysteries.
Their voices could travel through the Heavenly Tome Monolith to the other side, but even slightly condensed spiritual sense or real objects still could not.
At this moment, the other gray stone pearl on Chen Changsheng's wrist lit up.
”Luoluo pays respects to Teacher!”
A crisp and melodious voice came out from the stone pearl.
Yes, she also had a Heavenly Tome Monolith, and she had also learned how to communicate with Chen Changsheng.
There was a light clap from somewhere. The stone pearl communicating with Xu Yourong dimmed.
Chen Changsheng's mouth was agape. He didn't know what to say.
On the other side, Luoluo couldn't help but be anxious at the lack of reply and called, ”Teacher! Teacher! Teacher, are you okay?”
Chen Changsheng replied, ”I'm fine, just a bit absentminded.”
”That's great!”
Even though they were separated by tens of thousands of li, Chen Changsheng still felt like he could see Luoluo's cute appearance as she patted her chest in relief.
Suddenly, he finally understood why Xu Yourong had been so unhappy these last few days, be it in the grassland of the Elf race or in Xunyang City.
It was all because of the matter from that day.
That day was truly very similar to today.
When the White Crane flew in from the Mount Song Army headquarters, he and Xu Yourong had been communicating as he rode a boat on the Red River.
The Jings had been singing in the river at the time and Luoluo was at his side, using her small hands to feed him fruit.
Luoluo had no idea Xu Yourong could hear what she was saying.
He also had not thought of this at the time.
……
……
”Just what did Princess Luoluo say?”
Tang Thirty-Six's face was filled with curiosity. Not even his long beard blown by wind all over his face could conceal it.
Chen Changsheng used his peripheral vision to confirm that no one was looking at him. He also confirmed that no one was listening behind Tang Thirty-Six, so he whispered, ”She said… 'Teacher, be good and open your mouth.'”
Tang Thirty-Six stared blankly, wanting to laugh but not daring, his entire face turning red.
The people on the wall finally noticed what was happening.
The Prince of Zhongshan raised his brows in displeasure. On the side, the Prime Minister smiled and spoke in a soothing voice.
