"How would I know about this?"
She could hear the anxiousness and impatience in his eyes. Kong Yao didn't understand and also felt helpless.
She didn't have much contact with Zong Shou. In name, she was his wife but most of the time, she ignored him.
Moreover, people couldn't disturb him when he was cultivating, so she could only let him do what he wanted.
"Sister Ruoshui said that it would take 3 days. I think he won't be in seclusion for long. In a few more days, he will come out …
Hearing Kong Yao's explanation, Kong Rui's brow furrowed. He looked closely at Kong Yao. Her eyes were closed but her yin energy was still firm. His daughter was still a virgin.
What was going on? Didn't they say that the Gantian Mountain Ruler was lustful?
Why was it not only Kong Yao in front of him? Why didn't the Monster King even touch Ruoshui?
Cats didn't eat fish, how weird. Logically speaking, Zong Shou should be drooling over Kong Yao's beauty. But why was he still able to hold himself back from having sex until now?
Just as he was thinking about this, a golden light sped into the building.
Then, a yellow-haired mutt chased after him and jumped into the pavilion.
It smashed all around, causing the building to be in a mess. In the end, it stepped on the table, smashing all the tea cups and snacks into a mess.
"This bastard!"
Kong Rui was furious. Caught off guard, the table in front of him was flipped.
Although he had energy protecting his body and wasn't splashed by the tea, he was still in a bad state.
What made him annoyed was that the casual and elegant mood of drinking tea was totally gone.
He casually cast a spell and fixed the dog on the spot.
Kong Rui felt weird. It was said that these 2 things were Zong Shou's Protector Beasts.
The golden spiritual pet that seemed to be in the shape of a human was still fine. But why was he able to accept such an unremarkable puppy?
Xiaori seemed to know that it wasn't good but he wasn't worried. Recently, he and Little Gold had been rampaging around the Hanyan Palace and had caused quite a number of troubles. However, the mistress of this place always gave him a light scolding.
Howling, Xiaori glanced at the people in the pavilion innocently. When he looked at Kong Rui, his eyes were filled with deep meaning.
Just as it was about to struggle free, Kong Yao sighed softly and held it in her arms to comfort it.
He took out a small bottle of blue crystal liquid and placed it next to the dog's mouth to feed it.
The Qilin was born by eating Qi. It didn't consume the mortal world's smoke, fire, or blood. However, this bottle was filled with dew that couldn't be any purer than the dew she collected every morning. Mixed with some spiritual medicines, it was sweet and delicious. It was something that Xuanyuan Yiren matched and Xiaori loved it the most.
Kong Rui shook his head for a while. "It's just a spiritual pet. Why do you have to do this?"
She felt that the few women in the palace spoiled this dog called Xiaori too much.
In terms of cuteness, this little fellow was actually quite ugly. There was nothing about it that could make people like it.
Moreover, it was really playful and bold …
When Kong Yao heard this, she broke out into a laugh. Her father actually had times when he made a mistake.
This was a pure-blooded Qilin, a Top God Beast. How could he not raise it and spoil it?
This fellow might look like this, but its strength had reached Spirit Realm long ago. However, Zong Shou didn't want it to use its strength too early and had been suppressing it.
Just now, this fellow was just unwilling to argue with Kong Rui.
Hugging it in her arms, Kong Yao scratched Xiaori's chin, causing this fellow to moan comfortably. It stayed in her arms obediently, even ignoring Goldie, who was flying in the air and constantly provoking it.
Tranquility was restored in the pavilion.
However, moments later, a clear laugh spread out from within, "Concubine Yao, your husband is here. Aren't you going to serve me?"
Kong Yao was startled. After a short while, she came back to her senses. It was Zong Shou's voice. Then, the snow surface instantly turned red.
She felt slightly dizzy. Why did it have to be at this time?
Kong Rui raised his eyebrows, roughly guessing who this person was. His brows froze, his expression solemn. His hand instinctively took the few Wen King Divination Coins from his Heaven and Earth Bag.
Then, he felt awkward. Was it inappropriate for him to stay here?
However, when he saw the Gantian Mountain Monster King that he had been waiting for enter the pavilion, he was surprised once more.
He was really young. Legend had it that Zong Shou broke through to Grade-7 at 16, not getting old at all. Today, he wasn't even 18. He looked really handsome. However, what he wore wasn't casual clothing but full body armor.
The blood-red armor looked really simple but it contained a sharp energy that normal people couldn't get, as well as a little vicious.
At this moment, Zong Shou also noticed that the situation wasn't right. He looked at the middle-aged man and with just one look he knew that he was Kong Yao's father.
Their brows were at least 30% similar.
He couldn't help but cry out in his heart. When there was no one around, he could joke around with Kong Yao. However, he didn't expect to bump into Kong Rui. Saying such words at such a time was really ruining her reputation.
His expression was still really calm. Anyways, Kong Yao's reputation was pretty much ruined by him, so it didn't matter if he did it once more.
In his heart, he pitied this girl. She was really harmed by him such that she wouldn't be able to marry in the future …
"So Concubine Yao's father is here. Country Father-in-Law, Zong Shou greets you!"
After he said this, he saw that the pavilion was deathly silent. Zong Shou didn't feel awkward, waving his hand shamelessly to tell Kong Rui, who was about to bow and leave, not to bother.
Then, he looked at Kong Yao's murderous gaze and giggled, "I was just joking, don't take it seriously. Zong Shou hasn't reached the stage where I would do such things in broad daylight. I just want to ask Concubine Yao what is going on with Huizhou Island? "
Kong Yao took in a deep breath, calming down the unhappiness in her chest.
She could also hear the seriousness in Zong Shou's tone. Kong Yao frowned and thought about it seriously. Then, she shook her head, "As for the specific situation, I don't know. However, during these few years, our Taishang has increased troops and we have close to 200 thousand. Roughly a year ago, the Privy Court wanted to increase troops. A few Privy Ministers and the Grand Commandant argued and in the end, there was no conclusion. Only then did they want to find someone to take over. Coincidentally, at that time, Gantian Mountain had already risen up … "
At this moment, she had no connection with Taishang. Even her father was in Gantian which was why she said everything she knew. In just a few sentences, she pointed out the situation. Kong Yao hesitated for a moment, "His Majesty ordered me to head over to Gantian because he has bad intentions and wants to push the blame onto others."
Zong Shou's brows rose up and then he laughed. As expected, that was the case.
No wonder the Taishang would be so generous. Before the New Year, when Kong Yao met him, she promised to provide so many resources.
No wonder Daoling Vast Habitat would be so generous. To give up a few Mind Stone mines …
He had read in the history books that Kong Yao was a famous jinx since she was young. As expected, the calamity came and they couldn't avoid it.
Huizhou was the first to be affected. Then, there was a 99% chance that the Night Demon Race would target Donglin Cloud Continent which only had 50 provinces of land.
It was obvious that it was dangerous there but they had to go. They had to take up this task.
If the Great Shang Emperor was more vicious and removed all the troops stationed there, the outcome would be unimaginable.
Standing on the spot, Zong Shou was in deep thought, his brows furrowed into a single line.
On the other side, Kong Rui's expression changed. The six Wen King Divination Coins in his hand were trembling non-stop. They were going all out to try to break free from his control.
However, at this moment, his mind wasn't here. His mind was totally blank.
The teen in front of him was the one who shared the burden of his daughter's death …
Without needing the Wen King Divination Coins to see, one would know that the broken mark between Zong Shou's brows was a little black and grey.
A calamity was about to descend!
However, Zong Shou's aura was really bright and filled with an aura. It was also really pure such that one couldn't raise any random thoughts. Each of his actions affected the Earth Energy here.
He gathered the thoughts of millions of people but his aura was still really pure and flawless.
The Confucians called themselves the Three Emperors of the Cloud Desolate Era. If there was anything that they weren't satisfied with, they would talk about the ancient Saint Emperors to persuade them.
However, the person who could compare to those few Saint Emperors was standing here. He was seen as a barbaric and preposterous by the Central Continent Confucians …
While he was distracted, Kong Rui forgot to control the divination coins in his hand.
However, these six knife coins seemed to have used up all their strength. After breaking free, there was a soft clang as they all fell onto the floor.
Zong Shou was also awakened by the sound, walking over. After taking a look, his brows furrowed, "This is the Wen King Divination Coin?"
Kong Rui's heart sank. This Zong Shou could actually recognize this treasure?
In the next moment, he heard Zong Shou laugh, "Is this divination really dangerous?"
He was curious about divination in his last life and read many books. He didn't study it deeply but he could see a thing or two from this divination.
Kong Rui silently looked at the floor below, judging the position of the six knife coins. It was indeed really dangerous!
However, there was a saying in the books: If one isn't a bandit, it won't be good for a gentleman's chastity. It also said: If one is lucky, small will lead to big.
When things reach an extreme, they will move in the opposite direction.
Although this divination was filled with killing intent, it also had some auspicious signs. He wanted to see how Zong Shou was going to deal with it.
It was connected to his daughter's calamity.
However, he felt that the person in front of him didn't care at all. There was no fear at all. Instead, his sharp aura became even sharper.
Like even if it was a calamity that he was going to die, he was going to try and break it.
Following which, he looked at Kong Yao in confusion. The purple energy became thicker and the black energy continued to gather. He looked out of the window, only to see that the Alkaid Star was shining brightly in the sky.
Even though the sun was high up in the sky, it couldn't hide its radiance, making it visible on the horizon. It resonated with Kong Yao.
At that instant, Kong Ruizhi felt his heart tighten. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
