With the orders from above, Miao Yi walked out of the gloomy Celestial Prison and arrived at the imperial garden on the mountain. There, he saw two people playing chess in the pavilion.
Seeing Madam Jade, Miao Yi was a little surprised. He greeted her outside the pavilion.
The two people in the pavilion ignored him and continued to play chess, leaving him hanging outside the pavilion. Miao Yi could only stand there and wait.
After a round of Go, Yue Tianbo lost. He slapped his thigh and sighed, "Miao Yi, I'll give you a chance. As long as you beat Second Master in Go, not only will I let you go, I'll even give you the position of Palace Lord."
On the other hand, Madam Jade lifted her teacup and slowly took a sip. From the corner of her eyes, she kept an eye on Miao Yi, who was standing outside. "Does that lousy Go player think he's fit to play against me?"
Yue Tianbo disagreed. "Second Master, although this fellow does not have any redeeming qualities, his chess skills are truly superb. I admit my inferiority."
"Oh!" Madam Jade's gaze flickered. She thought to herself, "This brat was indeed pretending last time. I was almost fooled by him."
"Second Master?" Miao Yi was stunned. He didn't hear the rest of the sentence and was stuck on the word 'Second Master'.
Yue Tianbo nodded. "This is Sky Beyond Heaven's Second Master."
Miao Yi cried out involuntarily, "You are An Ruyu?"
Yue Tianbo's face darkened. "How dare you! Is the Second Master's name something you can shout? "
Madam Jade waved her hand at Yue Tianbo, indicating that it was fine. "I'll talk to him alone."
"Hehe! Second Master, please go ahead. "Yue Tianbo stood up and left with his hands clasped behind his back, taking his two maids with him.
Now that there was no one around, Madam Jade extended her hand and said, "Sit down and talk."
"I wouldn't dare!" When Miao Yi entered the pavilion, he really didn't dare to sit down. A chill ran down his spine. 'So this woman is the Celestial Sage's second disciple, the wife of the Overlord of the First Earthly Branch, Ou Yangguang, and the mother of the twins. Last time, she mentioned marrying her daughter to me. Could it be …'
An Ruyu didn't force him to sit. She asked lightly, "Now you should understand why I went to see you last time, right?"
"I don't know." Miao Yi feigned ignorance.
An Ruyu glanced at him from the corner of her eyes. "You've caused such a big mess this time. If I did not plead for mercy in front of The Lord, do you think you would still be standing here? Tell me, what happened between you and the Sea of Constellations? Why would those old demons help you in Flowing Clouds Dune Sea? You have to explain this matter clearly. If you can't explain it clearly, I'll leave. You can live for a while, but you can't live for a lifetime. It's not good for you in the future. The Lord can't tolerate anything. Do you understand what I mean? "
Her tone was warm and gentle. It was like a senior talking to a junior, giving Miao Yi goosebumps.
Miao Yi understood what she meant. She meant that if he didn't get to the bottom of this matter, even if Mu Fanjun didn't make a move now, he would still be watching from the sidelines. Sooner or later, he would have to settle the score. This matter wouldn't be over so easily.
Miao Yi knew that someone would ask him about this sooner or later, so he had already prepared an excuse for it. He sighed and said, "Actually, I'll have to start from when I was a spy at Flowing Clouds Dune Sea's Tempest Tavern. One time, I followed the Lady Boss to the Antarctic Ice Palace for a birthday celebration. It was during that banquet that I met the Four Subjugation Masters of the Sea of Constellations."
An Ruyu had also heard about the South Pole Ancestor's 200,000 year birthday. She found out that the Four Subjugation Masters were there as well. She was just wondering how Miao Yi could be friends with the Four Subjugation Masters. So it was because of that. That made sense. An Ruyu gently nodded and said, "Go on."
Miao Yi said, "I don't dare to lie in front of Second Master. To be honest, I quite admire the Four Subjugation Masters. I wanted to befriend them, and we had a pleasant conversation. In the end, each of them gave me a token, saying that with their tokens, I would be able to travel freely in the Sea of Constellations. They invited me to visit the Sea of Constellations often when I'm free. "
If it were anyone else saying this, An Ruyu would probably be suspicious. What kind of person was the Four Subjugation Masters? Why would they befriend someone like that? Instead, she felt that this only served to further prove how outstanding this young man was. It was only normal for him to be admired by the Four Subjugation Masters. 'Didn't I admire him as well?' She gently nodded and asked, "What happened after that?"
Miao Yi said, "After that, I would go to the Sea of Constellations whenever I was free. There wasn't much else, until the incident in Flowing Clouds Dune Sea. First, I went to look for the Overlord and asked for his help, but the Overlord refused. I couldn't just watch my subordinates die in vain in Flowing Clouds Dune Sea, so I had no choice but to go there and deal with it myself. Under urgent circumstances, I made a move at Tempest Tavern. In the end, I got into trouble and almost died at the hands of the Twin Heroes. Fortunately, Manager An of the Chamber of Commerce helped me out, and I managed to escape. I couldn't take this lying down, and I couldn't find anyone to help me either. I had no choice but to look for everyone I could, including those in the Sea of Constellations. Only then did I manage to get my revenge. "
An Ruyu pondered, "Yue Tianbo knew that you were going to Flowing Clouds Dune Sea?"
He definitely wouldn't say it in front of anyone else, but in front of the Realm Beyond Heaven, the Great Hall Master Miao felt that it was necessary. He looked around and smiled bitterly, "How could the Overlord not know? The relationship between me and the Hive Gang was the Overlord's idea. Without the Overlord's permission, I wouldn't have dared to go to Flowing Clouds Dune Sea and establish contact with the Hive Gang. However, the Overlord only wants news from Flowing Clouds Dune Sea, and has never been willing to get involved in such matters. Even if something were to happen, it would be my problem alone. "
An Ruyu silently nodded. She could understand this. Every Overlord had their own channels of information in secret. It was just that they didn't want to make it public in order to avoid arousing suspicion.
An Ruyu stood up and walked over to Miao Yi's side. She warned, "You can only tell me about these things in front of me. Don't tell anyone else. Also, don't mention things like how you admire the Four Directional Hosts in front of anyone else. It won't do you any good if word gets out. There's nothing else. I will think of a way to help you deal with the Holy Lord. You don't have to worry too much. "
As she said this, she took out a set of white robes and handed it to Miao Yi. "This is??? And?? Intellect slipping away from one's pocket? Lv Xuan? Thick? Pa Mengye? Stunned? Kitchen utensils? Moat Pouch Ring? Cyst? Fake house Chun Chun Xian Xian Xian Province!
Miao Yi hugged the clothes and asked suspiciously, "Which Lang Lang and Huan Huan?"
An Ruyu's face darkened. "I have twin daughters. Who do you think it is?"
What was going on? The expression on Miao Yi's face immediately became very interesting. Ouyang?? With Ouyang? Zheng? Faye Badger Pouch Happy Luck? Huh???? Innumerable? Shushu
An Ruyu seemed to think that her expression might have scared her future son-in-law, so she quickly calmed down. "My daughters have never done needlework for others. This is their first time sewing clothes for others."
What first-time clothes? These clothes had nothing to do with her daughter at all. She was the one who had asked someone to rush them and deliver them to her on behalf of her daughter. She had no choice but to have her two daughters take the initiative to interact with Miao Yi. Her two daughters would rather die than to embarrass themselves by doing so. To put it bluntly, they were too ashamed to meet Miao Yi. Otherwise, they would have interacted with Miao Yi a long time ago. They wouldn't have waited until today to deliver the clothes.
Damn it! This woman still wouldn't let go of that matter! Miao Yi really wanted to ask her if she was being reasonable. 'I'm the victim here, alright?' However, he forced a smile and said, "That's not very appropriate! I have no intention of getting married! "He tried to return the clothes to her.
An Ruyu pushed it back with a single hand and smiled. "Don't worry. I have no intention of forcing you. Some things are different now. Whether or not you have any intention of getting married is another matter altogether. Let's just be friends for now and interact more. If you think you're suitable, then get together. If you don't, then let's just forget about it. No one can force you to do something of your own free will. I'm not an unreasonable person. Just treat it as a gift from a friend. Are you not going to accept it? "
'Friend? I've already done that with your daughters. How can we still be friends? ' Miao Yi forced a smile and accepted the clothes. An Ruyu was a powerful person, and she had spoken so clearly. It would be rude if he didn't accept it.
Seeing him accept the gift, An Ruyu smiled knowingly and said, "I've already discussed this with Yue Tianbo, and he has agreed to let you become the Traversing Water Palace Lord. What do you think?"
From the looks of it, it seemed to be saying, 'Just listen to me, I guarantee you a bright future.'
"…" Miao Yi stared at her, a little dumbfounded. He didn't know that this was Mu Fanjun's idea, so he was really fooled by her. 'Isn't this a little too much? How can I still be promoted to become a Palace Lord after such a huge incident?'
After regaining his senses, Miao Yi asked cautiously, "Are you serious?"
An Ruyu raised her brows and asked, "Are you suspecting that I'm lying to you?"
"No, no." Miao Yi hurriedly waved his hands and said, "What I mean is, I owe Granny Tao a debt of gratitude when she was still alive, so I will not be the Traversing Water Palace Lord. I will continue to stay in the two halls."
"I see …" An Ruyu pondered for a moment, then said, "The Overlord of the First Earthly Branch, Ou Guang Guang, is my husband. Why don't you go to the First Earthly Branch? I'll ask Ou Guang Guang to give you the position of Palace Lord. I'll think of a way to convince Yue Tianbo for you."
Miao Yi almost broke out in a cold sweat. 'Wouldn't I be walking right into a trap if I went to your house …?' However, after some thought, he realized that going to the First Earthly Branch wasn't necessarily a bad thing. He just wanted to have a stable life. He didn't necessarily have to do anything with the other party's daughter. He would first settle this woman down, and once things were sorted out in the higher realms, he would leave. 'You guys can go play with whoever you want. I won't be playing with you anymore.'
Seeing that Miao Yi was convinced, An Ruyu decided for him and said, "Then it's decided. Go back and wait. I will make arrangements for you as soon as possible."
Miao Yi reluctantly agreed, then turned around to bid farewell to Yue Tianbo and left.
After returning to Suppressing Ninth Hall, Miao Yi pondered for an entire day. In the end, he still decided to talk to Yang Qing. Yang Qing was obviously much more taciturn.
Miao Yi said bluntly, "Head Steward Yang, I might be going to the First Earthly Branch to take up the position of Palace Lord soon. Are you willing to go with me?"
"Palace Lord?" Yang Qing abruptly raised his head, his face filled with disbelief as he asked, "Milord is going to the First Earthly Branch to be promoted to Palace Lord?"
Miao Yi smiled and nodded.
Yang Qing was speechless. In his heart, he screamed, 'Is there still justice in this world? How can he climb his way up like this?'
However, right at this moment, Jade Capital Peak Advisor Feng Ze personally arrived and interrupted their conversation.
After Miao Yi invited him into the main hall, Feng Ze turned around and took out a jade disk, saying, "The Overlord's decree!"
Miao Yi muttered to himself, 'An Ruyu sure is efficient.' He cupped his fists and waited for the decree.
Beside him, Yang Qing was also lamenting in his heart. 'What kind of world is this?!'
