Chapter 666 It's so good to have friends!
The familiar scream reached her ears. Ao Zhu, who was collecting star power, covered her ears and showed a slightly awkward expression of reluctance.
Facing the shimmering sea in the distance, the woman spoke softly:
"Do you think Fourth Aunt is too strict with him?"
The sea was silent as countless pure starlight, guided by Ao Zhu, slowly descended, raining down like stars. Suddenly, a faint ripple spread across the calm surface, and a dark, heavy shadow appeared, transforming in a few breaths into a handsome man dressed in a dark green robe, holding an exquisite silver wine pot in his hand.
He Zhui, shouting at the top of his lungs, completely disregarded the dignity and authority of the Lord of the Thousand Realms Ghost Realm, and began spouting nonsense:
"Yes, yes, you are the gentlest, the kindest, and the most caring!"
I was so heartbroken that I almost pulled out the child's tendons in Beiyuchuan.
Just as He Zhui finished rambling, he saw Ao Zhu, a few steps away, slowly looking over, her voice chillingly cold:
"Nonsense."
He Zhui rolled his eyes: "You're the one who made the ghosts talk nonsense."
He held up the silver wine pot in front of Ao Zhu: "I've come to have a drink with you."
To his surprise, the person opposite him merely glanced lazily at the wine jug in his hand, and then rudely refused:
"I won't drink it, I don't even want it!"
"I know you look down on me." He Zhui chuckled as he put away the wine jug, his gaze falling on the Star Power in Ao Zhu's hand:
"Give me a cup of Star-Slaying Wine."
Ao Zhu opened her mouth, about to refuse, when she heard him say, "I saw Xue Lan."
The woman froze, her vertical pupils suddenly widening: "You went to see her?"
The oppressive aura around him suddenly intensified, and He Zhui thought to himself that he had truly committed a sin.
"I didn't contact her, she contacted me."
He recklessly summoned a set of floating table and chairs, sat down, and then recounted in detail how A-Wu met Xue Lan in the wasteland and Xue Lan's plans.
Of course, the words were carefully chosen to conceal the wishes that a certain Wolf King had made to him through the bronze mirror.
He Zhui: I know what Ao Zhu will be jealous of, so I won't say!
Ao Zhu felt uneasy and said in a low voice, "She sent that little maidservant to the Northern Region River to retrieve two pieces of Vermilion Bird Spirit Iron. Jin Guang thought it was because she wanted to continue studying soul techniques... Now that I think about it, she is as domineering and autocratic as ever."
Ao Zhu uttered words of dissatisfaction, but her expression showed no anger.
She stared intently at He Zhui, a forced smile on her face, and said, "Did you tell Jin Guang what my lord just said?"
He Zhui's smile vanished instantly, and she looked rather miserable.
"The Thousand Realms of Ghosts is already very busy, and Xue Lan has also given instructions, so I told Jin Guang that this matter requires the Third Palace Master's intervention."
Ao Zhu gave a cold laugh.
"I did all the unpleasant things."
He Zhui suddenly stood up and moved away from Ao Zhu, clumsily: "I suddenly remembered I still have demon souls to eat... What are you doing?"
But before the lord could take a few steps, his wrists and ankles were bound by the power of the stars, making it impossible for him to move an inch.
"Why are you running?" Ao Zhu's icy voice rang out from behind. He Zhui felt a little pathetic.
He stammered, "I'm scared."
Ao Zhu was a little confused: "Xue Lan didn't let you speak?"
"That's not entirely true..." He Zhui smiled. "She seems quite happy that I told you guys to gossip about it."
"I'm just more afraid of Emberlight."
Ao Zhu was even more confused.
"The one who broke through the Thousand Realms of Ghosts and pointed a sword at your neck was Xue Lan. If you're not afraid of Xue Lan, why are you afraid of her?"
"But the sword pointed at my neck is hers!"
He Zhuisheng said dejectedly, "Twice!"
Ao Zhu was stunned, and after a long while, she said "Oh".
"That's true."
She stepped forward and patted He Zhui on the shoulder: "I feel sorry for you."
He Zhui looked at her expectantly, deliberately drawing out his words: "So..."
Ao Zhu bent down to look at him: "That's why I'm not going."
He Zhui's heart shattered on the ground with a "plop," so broken that it couldn't be picked up again.
“A dragon shouldn’t be…” he wiped away a tear, “so cold and heartless.”
Ao Zhu smiled and shook her head: "You know nothing about the ruthlessness of dragons."
He Zhui gritted his teeth, knowing he couldn't escape it.
He got up, tidied up the table and chairs, picked up the wine pot, and prepared to head to the Northern Region with a heart ready to die.
Then he noticed that the wine pot had changed; it was now made of white jade, and the handle was a coiled golden dragon.
"Cough cough!"
Ao Zhu coughed lightly twice.
"The Nine-Brew Star-Slaying Wine is prepared for Xue Lan's return to his demonic body and breakthrough, so you can't drink it. Here's a pot of the Seven-Brew wine for you."
"Use it to heal wounds, after all, the demonic souls of Wanyu County are not easy to deal with."
He Zhui was speechless for a moment.
The young man flicked his sleeve, said nothing, and walked away with the wine jug.
Only after He Zhui's presence faded into the distance did Ao Zhu hear his awkward telepathic transmission:
"Don't worry, Xue Lan has changed a lot."
"everything will get better."
Ao Zhu nodded gently.
"I know that one cannot expect too much from being a demon."
"It would be wonderful if we could share a drink together at the same table once in our lifetime."
"After all... the Yuanming Realm is already at a critical juncture."
Two realms, one moon; ten thousand scrolls, adorned with stars in the sky.
"You don't want to drink? Do you want to go back to the Upper Realm and drink with Jinguang and the others?"
The evening breeze in Fuyang City was gentle. Xue Tong was by the window helping Xue Lan dry the cultivation manual she had given to Yuan Zhen when she suddenly spoke.
Xue Lan covered her mouth and winked playfully at the girl: "Wow, our Xiao Tong is so smart."
Xue Tong wanted to hit her on the head, but his hands were full, so he had to attack from a distance:
"I taught you how to coax people, not how to coax me, like you're coaxing an idiot."
Xue Lan smiled at her without saying a word, while teasing Xue Xiaofei with her hands, pressing on the little spider's belly from a distance to prevent it from getting up, leaving it only able to thrash its eight legs.
As for why not just start doing it directly...
Lord Wolf glanced at Xue Tong.
It wasn't easy for Miss Xiaotong to take a liking to the two little ones, and Lord Wolf didn't want to court death.
Xue Tong was very satisfied with her approach, shaking his head and saying:
"It's great to have friends."
"I also have good friends with whom I can drink under the moon."
Xue Tong got up and walked over, placed the dried cultivation manual on the table, and picked up the Sun-Tracing Mirror from his waist.
The runes on the Sun-Tracing Mirror lit up in circles, illuminating Xue Tong's round eyes, making them clear and bright.
"Xue Lan..." she said softly, "I've asked Senior Suixin, and the trial of the Heavenly Forging Hammer Illusion can end now."
Xue Lan tilted her head and looked at her: "Actually, there's no need to be in such a hurry..."
"I want to see Yu Shu." Xue Tong interrupted Xue Lan with a smile, thinking of the woman who had briefly accompanied her for several months in the illusion.
"The snow will eventually clear, but life is full of partings."
"Not just you, I should learn that too."
"Xue Lan, thank you for teaching me these things."
