Chapter 161 Adding fuel to the flames
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Liu Yishu noticed that Xu Weichen was in a bad mood and asked.
Xu Weichen looked up at the sky with deep eyes. Only he knew what he was thinking at that moment. After a long while, he said calmly, "Nothing."
He didn't look like he was fine, but since Xu Weichen didn't say anything, Liu Yishu didn't ask any further. Instead, he took the opportunity to put all his weight on Xu Weichen and leaned completely in his arms.
Feeling the weight in his arms, Xu Weichen's heavy heart felt a little better. He subconsciously tightened his hand around Liu Yishu's waist, then looked towards Chaoyang and said solemnly: "The road to immortality is long, and becoming a spirit is just a small hurdle. Although you have a bright future, you still have to guard against arrogance and impatience, and stick to your original intention."
Chaoyang was originally excited because of Ye Yunhan's protection of him, but when he heard Xu Weichen say this, he suddenly looked embarrassed and a little sad.
Although Xu Weichen didn't say anything harsh, he still felt hurt by this obvious favoritism.
"Senior brother, you are too biased. It's obvious that he has been bullying Chaoyang. Can't you see it?" Ye Yunhan's reaction was more extreme than Chaoyang's. He pointed at Liu Yishu and said to Xu Weichen with a very displeased look on his face.
As an outsider, Ye Yunhan could not see the confrontation between Chaoyang and Liu Yishu, but Xu Weichen knew it clearly.
He also noticed that Liu Yishu was in a bad mood, so he deliberately provoked Chaoyang. Normally, he would not interfere when the two of them quarreled with each other, but today it was Chaoyang who provoked first, and Xu Weichen cared more about this matter than Liu Yishu, the person targeted by the Heavenly Dao. He could not control his emotions for a moment, and his words were a little heavier.
Xu Weichen glanced at Chaoyang with a guilty look on his face, "I know Chaoyang is very good. I am very pleased that Junior Brother can protect Chaoyang in this way. I am also relieved to entrust Chaoyang to you to take care of him."
The corners of Ye Yunhan's mouth twitched, and he wanted to say something, but considering that Chaoyang was there too, he held back and didn't speak directly.
His reaction was seen by Xu Weichen and Liu Yishu. They looked at each other and understood what each other wanted to express.
Ye Yunhan has always been straightforward and speaks his mind without hiding anything from himself. But now he has learned to hold back his words out of concern for Chaoyang's feelings. It must be said that Chaoyang's efforts have paid off.
Perhaps if we add some more fuel, Ye Yunhan, who is as straight as a sword, may be able to come to his senses.
Unfortunately, Chaoyang didn't notice this.
At this moment, Chaoyang was in a complicated mood. He was sad that his master protected Jiuwei, but he was also happy that uncle Yunhan favored him. It was a mixture of emotions.
"Suzaku attains Nirvana once every thousand years. Although you have lived for more than twenty years, this age is insignificant compared to the Suzaku's thousand-year life. According to the Suzaku's growth trajectory, you are actually just a cub. I beg you to be more patient and accompany him when you are with him. Just take care of him as if he were a child of a few years old." Liu Yishu suddenly said to Ye Yunhan with a smile.
Since Chaoyang wanted to act younger, Liu Yishu kindly decided to lend him a helping hand.
What is a child of a few years old?
Chaoyang, who was originally feeling mixed emotions, felt sour, sweet, bitter and annoyed, that he almost curled his toes in embarrassment when he heard Liu Yishu say that.
"Shut up, I'm not a child!" he shouted loudly, wishing he could rush over and cover Liu Yishu's mouth, if Liu Yishu was not completely embraced in Xu Weichen's arms at this moment.
He glared at Liu Yishu fiercely and jumped up and down in anger.
After much difficulty, his relationship with Uncle Yun Han made some progress, but the stinky fox actually slandered him as a cub. What serious adult would fall in love with a cub?
The stinky fox was so hateful that he actually tarnished his tall and glorious image in front of Uncle Yun Han. He really deserves to be killed!
Little did he know that his angry and helpless look made Ye Yunhan suddenly agree with Liu Yishu's words.
Indeed, although Chaoyang has the appearance of an adult in his twenties, he has become a crybaby and has a strange personality since he took back the Suzaku Seal. The most obvious change is that he wants to cuddle with him, and he is clingy and insecure, just like a child.
but--
Chaoyang is obviously his senior brother's disciple, and he is just taking care of him temporarily. Why does it sound like they are going to rely on him from what they say?
The pressure around Ye Yunhan suddenly dropped, and he stared at the two people hugging each other with cold eyes.
It’s not that he dislikes Chaoyang or doesn’t want to take him with him, he just can’t stand the way these two people act like hands-off bosses!
"I heard that the spiritual energy in Tianzong Mountains is now much richer than that of all the sects and families in Suzaku Continent. Senior brother has been living in seclusion in Tianzong Mountains for many years. Chaoyang and I have never visited him. Senior brother, won't you invite us to go and take a look?" Ye Yun asked coldly.
Even though he had lived in seclusion in the Tianzong Mountains for many years and set up a barrier to prevent anyone from entering, Xu Weichen never felt that the Tianzong Mountains belonged to him.
Just like he regarded Xiaoyue Peak as his home, he never felt that Xiaoyue Peak belonged to him alone.
He just didn't want the monks to destroy the ecological balance of the Tianzong Mountains by snatching resources. If everyone could live in peace, there would be no need for the barrier to exist.
"Of course you can go if you want. Chaoyang is curious about how much the sacred tree has grown, so this is a good opportunity for you to go and see it with your own eyes." Xu Weichen said.
Going to see Jianmu?
There was a hint of resistance in Chaoyang's eyes.
However, he was indeed curious about what Jianmu looked like now. In the previous life, after Jianmu sprouted, the spiritual energy of Suzaku Continent did not dissipate as quickly as it is now. He wanted to know whether Jianmu, which had absorbed so much spiritual energy, would grow faster.
Although the resistance in Chaoyang's eyes only appeared for a moment, Liu Yishu still noticed it.
He had tested Chaoyang before and knew that Jianmu was destroyed by a mysterious man in the previous life, and Ye Yunhan also died as a result.
The only person in the world who can easily destroy Jianmu is Xu Weichen, so Ye Yunhan’s death is also related to Xu Weichen.
Liu Yishu was afraid of upsetting Chaoyang, so he immediately changed the subject. But now that Chaoyang had returned to his body and merged with the Suzaku Seal, and was showing such resistance to Jianmu, Liu Yishu couldn't help but wonder if he had remembered something.
But if Chaoyang really remembered that it was Xu Weichen who destroyed Jianmu in the previous life, with his intelligence, he would not be able to face Xu Weichen calmly and without any prejudice.
So, he remembered part of it, but not all of it?
To be honest, Liu Yishu was looking forward to Chaoyang completely remembering that Ye Yunhan's death in the previous life was related to Xu Weichen. He wondered if by that time, he would still regard Xu Weichen as the master he relied on and respected the most?
Liu Yishu was very happy to see Chaoyang's feelings for Xu Weichen waver because of this. Although he only had admiration and love for Xu Weichen, and Xu Weichen only simply loved and cared for him, and neither of them involved love, Liu Yishu still hoped that Xu Weichen could pour all his feelings on him, just like he did to Xu Weichen now.
