In the Celestial Shadow Palace, Su Yuqing walked to her seat and sat down. Haitang bowed. "Master."
Lu Ye also cupped his fists. "Peak Master Su."
Haitang's heart was as clear as a mirror when she heard Lu Ye address her like this. She was even more certain that she was right. Normally, Senior Brother Lu should call Master Senior!
Peak Master Su's address … was not right!
Su Yuqing responded softly. She glanced at the two of them and asked curiously, "Why did you two come back together?"
She could understand why Haitang would come back. This time, the western region passed by the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. Apart from Haitang, some other Star Mansions from the eastern region had gone to the western region to participate in the Spirit Talisman Convention. Once the convention ended, the people from the eastern region would naturally come back.
However, she could not understand why Lu Ye would come here.
Looking at the young face below, even though Su Yuqing had deliberately forgotten some things in the past, many deeply buried memories could not help but surge up.
She had thought that they would never meet again after she had sent him back to his homeland. That parting would also be an eternal farewell. Who would have thought that they would meet again after a short ten years?
"Master, Senior Brother is at the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. We met at the Spirit Talisman Convention," Haitang explained excitedly. The starry sky was so vast that such a chance encounter was undoubtedly a kind of fate.
"You're at the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea?" Su Yuqing looked at Lu Ye in surprise.
She naturally knew how far the Jade Snail Galaxy was from the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. That place was so remote that there was not even a single insect path. Therefore, she was surprised that Lu Ye was at the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea.
Moreover, in a short decade, Lu Ye's cultivation had advanced from the early stage of the Star Mansions to Yue Yao's level!
Although she did not know what Lu Ye had experienced in the past decade, it seemed that he had suffered a lot.
The growth of a cultivator was always related to the hardships they experienced. The faster they grew, the more hardships they would have to face.
In an instant, Su Yuqing seemed to have seen many things. Her originally cold gaze softened a little.
"Yes, I encountered some things back then and accidentally came to the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea." Lu Ye explained casually without going into too much detail.
"The Ten Thousand Elephant Sea is a good place." Su Yuqing nodded. "It's also a place suitable for cultivators to work hard. If you can make a name for yourself here, it won't be a problem for you to stand out."
After exchanging a few words, Su Yuqing used the tone of an elder to give Lu Ye some pointers. Lu Ye had a respectful look on his face as he nodded repeatedly.
As she spoke, Su Yuqing suddenly looked at Yaya curiously. "This little girl is …"
As always, Yaya introduced herself crisply, "I am Daddy's daughter!"
Su Yuqing was taken aback, and her eyes turned cold.
The temperature of the entire Immortal Shadow Palace seemed to have dropped quite a bit.
There was killing intent! The corner of Lu Ye's eyes twitched. He immediately knew that something was wrong.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Haitang hurriedly transmitted a message to Su Yuqing, "Master, Yaya was picked up by Senior Brother, and she was originally a sunshine. Because her Divine Sea was broken by the Soul Devouring Aphid, her Divine Sea was damaged, and now her spiritual intelligence is only at the level of a child."
Hearing this, Su Yuqing carefully looked at Yaya for a while and did not see the slightest falsehood in her eyes.
Thinking about it, if she was really an ordinary child, it would be impossible for her to live with Lu Ye in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea.
At this moment, Haitang stood up and said, "Master, disciple's talismans are almost sold out. It's rare for me to come back, so I'll go to the other Senior Brothers to see if there are any extra talismans." After saying this, she waved at Yaya. "Yaya, come with me."
Yaya decisively refused. "No, I want to be with Daddy!"
Lu Ye patted Yaya's little head. "Sister Haitang has a lot of delicious food, all of which you have never seen or eaten."
Yaya suddenly jumped down from the chair and enthusiastically threw herself at Haitang. "Sister Haitang!"
Haitang did not know whether to laugh or cry. She called Lu Ye Senior Brother, Yaya called Lu Ye Daddy, and now she called her Sister Haitang … If this seniority was from Master's side, there seemed to be no problem, but it was a bit messy.
Haitang let her imagination run wild. She picked up Yaya and bowed to leave.
Immediately, only Lu Ye and Su Yuqing were left in the Immortal Shadow Palace.
Lu Ye looked up and met Su Yuqing's gaze. The latter's eyes dodged for a moment, and she was still a little flustered.
When Haitang was here, she could still put on the airs of an elder and show some concern for Lu Ye's experiences over the years. But now that Haitang and Yaya were gone, she suddenly did not know what position to talk to Lu Ye in.
Lu Ye also did not know what to say …
After Su Yuqing personally escorted him and Nian Yue Xian back to the vicinity of Nine Regions, not only did Su Yuqing feel that there was no possibility of meeting again in this life, but even Lu Ye also felt the same.
Unless one day, the eastern Fangcun Mountain passed through the Jade Snail Galaxy, and Su Yuqing would take the initiative to visit him.
So he never thought that the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea would be another intersection point between them.
The atmosphere became a little awkward and torturous.
Su Yuqing's hands in her sleeves were sweating. This situation was more difficult than refining a red talisman for her …
In the end, it was Lu Ye who broke the silence. "Haitang … probably knows."
"What?" Su Yuqing was startled, and then her expression was extremely flustered. She asked, "She … what does she know? What did she say to you? "
"Sigh." Lu Ye sighed, stood up, and walked toward Su Yuqing.
As his figure approached, Su Yuqing's expression became more and more flustered. She involuntarily pinched the armrest of the chair with a nervous expression. "What are you doing?"
Where was the majesty and bearing that Rizhao should have? She looked like a little girl who was ignorant of the world and encountered something that made her panic and panic. Her first reaction was to avoid it instead of facing it head-on.
Lu Ye didn't say anything. His gaze was fixed on her beautiful face.
In such a situation, he did not know what to do, but no matter what he did, it was better than the two of them staying here in awkward silence.
Su Yuqing was Rizhao, and her cultivation base was much higher than his, but after all, she was a woman. There were some things that he needed to take responsibility for.
After a dozen steps, Lu Ye soon came in front of Su Yuqing and looked at her condescendingly.
The woman in front of him was so nervous that her beautiful eyes were almost unfocused. Her chest was violently rising and falling, and her white cheeks were beginning to turn red. Her mind could not help but recall various things that happened more than ten years ago. Her entire body was stiff as if she had been struck by a talisman.
Until Lu Ye's large hand pinched her smooth chin, Su Yuqing's body shook as if she had been electrocuted.
"Hand … Hand away!" Su Yuqing's gaze looked past Lu Ye and out of the hall, afraid that a disciple of the Immortal Spirit Peak would pass by.
If someone passed by at this time and saw this scene, she would definitely lose her dignity.
Her childish words made Lu Ye laugh. In terms of cultivation base, Su Yuqing was much higher than him. At this moment, she could casually use her magic power to shake him off.
But there was no sign of her magic power circulating. Instead, she pretended to be fierce and shouted such words without any deterrence.
Lu Ye felt that something in his body had suddenly awakened. The appearance of the woman in front of him made his blood boil.
His big hand touched the woman's cheek and gently stroked it. Lu Ye said in a deep voice, "Haitang didn't say too much, but her words implied that I'm a bad person who doesn't admit anything. She said that since I left that year, you've become different. So she brought me here this time, probably to let me enlighten and comfort you."
Su Yuqing was trembling. Not only were her cheeks red, even her fair neck was beginning to turn red. She looked up at Lu Ye. Her instincts told her that the wisest thing to do at this moment was to use her transcendence energy to shake Lu Ye off, to let him know the price of offending his superiors. But every time she made this decision, she couldn't bring herself to do it.
Her pure magic power seemed to have solidified in her body and could not circulate.
She suddenly remembered that when she was still young, there was once when she went deep into the ancient forest and met a monster that bared its fangs and pushed her to the ground.
The situation at that time was very similar to today.
In her vision, Lu Ye also seemed to have turned into that monster that bared its fangs and wanted to eat her flesh and bones.
She did not know why she would think of this scene from a long time ago, but she could not help it.
Lu Ye's voice sounded again, pulling her back from her distant thoughts, "I don't know how to comfort you. You are Sunshine after all. You have more experience than me and your mind is also more tenacious than mine. If you can't understand something, no matter how others try to persuade you, it will be useless. So sometimes … it is better to do than to say!"
"What?" Su Yuqing was completely stunned. Lu Ye's words entered her left ear and came out of her right ear. She did not have the ability to think at all. She only heard Lu Ye say that it was better to do than to say, and then saw his body crouching down.
The long-awaited blazing breath hit her in the face …
Su Yuqing suddenly woke up and finally knew what she should do. She gritted her teeth and used all her strength.
Lu Ye's movements paused for a moment, knowing that his lips were broken, but he did not have the slightest intention of retreating.
Insincere resistance became meaningless at this moment. A moment later, Su Yuqing's pure Sunshine magical power finally surged out, but it did not push Lu Ye away. Instead, it turned into a layer of protection, covering the entire Immortal Shadow Palace.
With a bang, the main door of the palace closed.
At the same time, Haitang, who was looking for delicious food with Yaya on another spiritual peak, suddenly sensed something and turned her head in the direction of the Immortal Shadow Palace.
There was a look of worry on her face.
The fluctuations of Sunshine's magical power were very obvious. She did not know what was going on in the Immortal Shadow Palace, but she knew that Master must have made a move.
Senior Brother won't be beaten, right?
Will he be beaten very badly?
However, as long as Master vented her anger, he should be fine. She believed that even if Master really did make a move on Lu Ye, she would certainly have a sense of propriety and would not really do anything to him.
Comforting herself like this, Haitang suppressed the idea of going to the Immortal Shadow Palace to investigate the situation. She decided to let nature take its course and not interfere. She had done the only thing she could do, and that was to bring Lu Ye back.
"Sister Haitang, where's the delicious food?" Yaya's voice sounded from the side.
"Ah." Haitang came back to her senses. "Come with me, little greedy cat. I'll take you to find it. There are a lot of delicious things here on Mount Fangcun. I guarantee that you've never eaten them outside."
