”Right, what are you doing in this Myriad Temple?” Xuan Su saw that Yun Duan had finished eating, so he poured a cup of tea for her, his face still smiling.
Yun Duan shouted towards the door, ”Men!”
Joan came in. ”Mistress!”
Yun Duan pointed at the mess on the table and said, ”Put it away!”
Qiong Ying called her servant girl to come and carry the things away. She looked at the unoccupied Xuanhong with her big, round eyes and wondered if this person was still an envoy of the Gods Mountain. Master had never seen him before, so why did they already know each other?
Xuan Hong looked up and down the cloud with a pale face. This woman was a master, he had never heard of such a beautiful person in the Myriad Tribes Palace, which was strange. Before this, the two parties' envoys had often been in contact with each other.
Could it be someone of Emperor Chen?
That shouldn't be the case. Xingyun Pavilion looked simple and crude, not like a place for an esteemed lord to live. But whatever she was, she was still his wife.
”I'll be back in two days. Do you want to come with me?”
Yun Duan cast a weird glance at Xuan Hong and asked, ”Why would I want to go with you?”
These words caused Xuan Hong to burst out laughing. He was originally beautiful to begin with, but this smile made all the flowers in the room pale in comparison. ”Did you forget? I, as a man, would not bully you. Moreover, I promised that I would return to the Desolate Mountain to find you, but now that you are in this Thousand Empire Palace, that is even better. It is better if I directly marry you, you will be my legitimate wife from now on! ”
”You're thinking too much!”
Yun Duan leisurely drank her tea. The sky was bright and the sun was high in the sky, so it wasn't too hot. Fortunately, her stomach was full, so the irritation in her heart lessened.
She held the cup of tea in her hands and shook it gently. This limpid and clear tea was very similar to her Ares, and in her memory, this little Ari's eyes were clean and bright. She had never been affected by the darkness of this world, no, there were times when she was hungry, or when she was afraid of the dark, those eyes were filled with fear, fear, and trepidation.
However, the clean and weak Rui was thrown into the Burning Ruins. Even though she was still far away, she could feel the burning sensation from the flames. However, Rui was thrown into the Ruins of Immolation.
Thinking up to here, her heart felt like it was boiling in those scorching flames. It didn't hurt, but rather it was tormenting.
”Duan`er?” Seeing Yun Duan's five fingers constantly tightening around the teacup as if she was going to crush it, Xuan Su couldn't help but slightly frown. He thought back to when he had been having nightmares in the wilderness. She seemed to be in great pain, or she was choking in fear.
He didn't know what she had experienced, but from the moment he wanted to marry her home, he had already planned to protect her for his entire life.
Yun Zuiyue recovered her wits, glanced at Xuan Su, and then slowly put down the teacup. After thinking for a moment, she opened her mouth and asked, ”What is your main purpose for coming to the Myriad Palace?”
Seeing that she had recovered her wits, Xuan Su relaxed his brow. He smiled. ”What do you think?”
Yun Duan lightly tapped her fingertips on the white jade table. She did not like to twist and turn, and always spoke bluntly, ”Emperor Chen is not dead yet, moreover he has a son, no matter how much you want him, will you have to wait until he is at his last breath? At that time, the Emperor might directly step down from his position.
Xuan Hong grinned, his eyebrows raised slightly, ”How do you know I'm doing it for this position?”
”Isn't it?” Yun Duan let out a cold snort, tapped the table lightly with his finger, ”Being revered by tens of thousands of gods, you will be in charge of the four great God Tribes and seven God Cara. Just this force alone is enough for all the other God Places!”
There were too many people who wanted this position, and it was fortunate that Emperor Chen was a schemer. Although his personality was quite cold, his methods were not bad. At the very least, in the years he had been on the throne, there hadn't been anyone who didn't fear death and came to provoke him.
Xuan Hong also poured a cup of tea for himself. When they were in the wilderness, his personality was so quick to explode, but now that he saw how calm and steady this trip was, he couldn't be compared to her. In the future, when husband and wife lived together, he would be a lot shorter.
”I heard that the three kings of the Thousand Empire Mountain have returned from their travels. Have you seen her appearance before?”
Yun Duan raised an eyebrow and asked in surprise, ”Are you here for the three kings?”
Xuan Su saw her jump up like this, so he waved his hands and said, ”Don't think too much. I don't even know what that Ji looks like, but my father told me to take a look at her!”
Yun Duan couldn't help but smile, her smile making Xuan Hong a little nervous. Her eyes were calm, and no one could tell whether she was happy or angry, ”How much trouble can a mere three kings cause? What's there to be afraid of? Shouldn't the person they are truly afraid of be Emperor Chen? ”
Xuan Hong looked at her: ”Then you mean that you have seen this Princess? Three hundred years ago, when the three kings were traveling, they were almost doted on to the heavens! ”
Yun Duan sneered. Rumor?
Chen Emperor's face was saved, but wasn't he extremely disgusted with her? Hating her, the daughter he doted on even in the mouths of myriad gods?
Of course he hated her, he already hated her to the bone. It wasn't just that she treated him the same way, her mother was his concubine, and his Ah Rui, three hundred years of life was neither human nor ghost, he probably wanted her to die in the wilderness, but the heavens did not kill her. Now that she was back alive, this debt had to be settled slowly, she would definitely not let him off lightly.
She hated how much he had doted on her back then.
Yun Duan stood up and slowly walked out of the Flowing Cloud Pavilion. The palace was cold and deserted, with a few drooping willow leaves swaying in the wind, making them feel rather uncomfortable.
She fixed her eyes on the distance. Xuan Hong followed behind her and shouted, ”Can you not be so indifferent? The entire body is covered in a baleful aura, it is extremely terrifying! ”
Yun Duan swept a glance at him. ”I have something even more terrifying. Do you want to see it?”
