Chapter 2038 - 2038 Tomb
Countless fiends gathered together as the pairs of eyes all looked over.
Curiosity, shock, elation, excitement…
Probably because Tuan Zi was around, but they didn’t dare to be too near. They were still huddled together at the back, but it wasn’t hard to tell that there were… many!
The corner of San San’s lips twitched. “Master, what… did you do this time?”
Why did she bring so many fiends back, and many of them also seem to be legendary fiends!
Chu Liuyue turned around and raised her volume. “What’s the matter? Didn’t I ask you to wait outside?”
Hearing her words, the many fiends immediately took a step back obediently.
But after interacting for a while, they had some understanding of Chu Liuyue and knew that she was not really angry. Additionally, because of all sorts of reasons, they had a natural closeness to Chu Liuyue. Even if they heard her scolding, they were still happy and wanted to move forward.
Hence, though the fiends quietened down, they were still gathered together and refused to leave.
“Master, we’ve already arranged accommodations for those people.” At this point, Cen Yi walked over.
Chu Liuyue nodded in understanding. “That’s great.”
There were only dozens of them in total, and there were quite a few empty residences in Peach Blossom Dock, so they could just directly bring them over. Besides, they were all pretty talented and could quickly adjust after entering this place, so there was no need to overly worry about them.
The key was… these fiends.
“Big Brother!” When San San saw Cen Yi, tears welled up in his eyes in an aggrieved manner.
Cen Yi’s gaze turned slightly, and he nonchalantly glanced at him. “Before you’re done bathing, you’re not allowed to take another inch toward me.”
San San was speechless. Big Brother! You’re my Big Brother! Your Third Brother was bullied. Not only did you not care and ask, but you even despised me?!
As if detecting San San’s vengeful gaze, Cen Yi elegantly spared him a glance and squinted his eyes slightly. “Make another copy of the account book.”
Master still has to read it.
San San’s hand holding the book trembled slightly, and he couldn’t help but shout, “My hand is clean!”
Cen Yi looked calm. “Really?”
San San was speechless.
Thirteen softly said, “Third Brother, why don’t you go first? If not, you can’t pass Big Brother’s obstacle…”
San San was devastated. “The world is so big, but there is no place for me, San San!”
Around the corner, Shi Fang—who heard the news—rushed over and looked surprised. “Hey, Third Brother you can come to me! The plants I planted recently need fertilizer—”
“Get lost!” San San took a deep breath in and unleashed his maximum speed to leave in a flash.
Shi Fang sighed very regretfully. “The red-cloud leopard is a legendary fiend. This fertilizer is very precious, yet Third Brother wasted it just like that…”
Chu Liuyue: “…Cen Yi, since San San is busy, I’ll hand this matter to you. You should’ve also gotten familiar with this place during this period of time.”
According to Cen Yi’s character, when she first chose to settle here, he should’ve done a comprehensive check of the entire place.
Speaking of which, Cen Yi might even know more things than San San about this place.
Cen Yi nodded. “Yes.”
It was indeed rather crowded now that a few hundred fiends came at once. But luckily, they were very grateful and admired Master and Tuan Zi a lot, so they did not find it troublesome.
Under Cen Yi’s guidance, these fiends quickly left.
Tuan Zi wanted to join in the fun, so Chu Liuyue let her follow them.
The yard was finally quiet again.
Chu Liuyue turned around and saw Thirteen standing on the ground.
That tiny red-cloud leopard was still lying in his hands.
“Thirteen?” Chu Liuyue walked over.
“Master, I think it’s asleep,” said Thirteen rather nervously. As if worried that he would wake that little thing up, he purposely lowered his volume.
Chu Liuyue turned around to take a look and saw that the mother leopard was still waiting outside.
She laughed. “You can just send it to its mother.”
Thirteen nodded and hurriedly walked over.
Seeing his back view, the corner of Chu Liuyue’s lips curled up slightly. Thirteen seems to have… broken through again?
“Yue’er.” A low and familiar voice came.
Chu Liuyue turned around. “Ancestor? You came back?”
Even though Shangguan Jing usually lived in Yue Manor, he previously said that he wanted to produce some Yuan instruments. Thus, he left for a while.
Shangguan Jing stroked his beard with a smile. “Yesterday. Originally, I was wondering if I should look for you. I didn’t expect you to come back today.”
Then, he surveyed the surroundings. “Rong Xiu didn’t come back with you?”
“Mm, he had something on, so he made a trip to the Red Moon Desert first,” answered Chu Liuyue.
Shangguan Jing nodded with understanding.
Seeing that Chu Liuyue did not seem injured, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. “Where have you been all this time?”
Chu Liuyue briefly recounted the Black Demon Hole incident.
Shangguan Jing was shocked and took a long time to recover his senses. “I see… So this means that the other people of Black Demon Hole are dead, and only Mo Shiqian is left?”
Chu Liuyue focused on it. “This person is very cunning and scheming. He’s not easy to deal with. But now that he has lost his physical body, it should be hard for him to do anything.”
...
Shangguan Jing nodded and looked hesitant with his words.
Chu Liuyue found it weird. “Ancestor, do you have something to say?”
Her ancestor hesitated for quite some time before saying, “Yue’er, I plan to leave Peach Blossom Dock for a while.”
Chu Liuyue was dazed. “Where do you want to go?”
Shangguan Jing looked determined and said, “You weren’t around during this period, so you probably don’t know. However… Tang Ke’s tomb has appeared!”
