Chapter Forty-One: The Phoenix Star Appears
Qingying's specialty. Every time she went on a mission, she would take the opportunity to catch a couple of fish from the river just for a taste.That tender and elastic fish meat, that delicious taste...The old man's heart skipped a beat. He looked up at the sky and immediately reached out with one hand to quickly calculate something.
Looking at the star-studded sky, he was astonished. "Strange, a star in the east that had already dimmed suddenly shone brightly, far surpassing the surrounding stars. The old man had never encountered such a situation before. Could it be that the Star of the Phoenix God has descended!"
Gazing at the sky in thought for a while, he again muttered to himself, "The Phoenix Star has not appeared for a hundred years. This time it appears, what does it signify With my abilities, I can't even calculate the true location of the Phoenix Star, let alone its future. It is truly strange."
Patting his long beard, the old man sighed softly, "It seems like the world is truly going to change. With seven parts of the kingdom, heroes vying for power, this tumultuous situation was already fraught with hidden dangers. Now, with the appearance of the Fenluan star, who knows what will happen..."
Just as the elder was worrying anxiously about the state of the world, a white figure lightly leaped onto the wall beside him and looked down at him.
"Master!" With his noble and handsome face, and an air of transcendence like that of a celestial being, who could it be besides Jun Liye.
The old man raised his head upon hearing the sound and, seeing who it was, the worried expression he had just had vanished instantly. His two goat whiskers trembled with anger as he scolded, "You little rascal, you still remember that I'm your master! After learning skills, you immediately kicked me aside. Have you gotten cocky When I told you to inherit my mantle, you ran faster than a rabbit!"
With a graceful leap, Jun Liye gently descended from the city wall. The evening breeze rustled past, carrying his moon-white robes as they danced and swirled, his aura alluring and enchanting.
A smirk played on his lips, a hint of amusement in his eyes. “This prince has no interest in learning those useless trifles. Besides, as the esteemed Prince Regent of Beiling, I wouldn't stoop to being some charlatan wandering the rivers and lakes. If word got out, where would this prince put his face”
“Get lost! What kind of charlatan How can that street swindle compare to this old man's unique skills Besides, learning this will make you a disgrace! You'll lose face! Disobedient son! You ungrateful son! How could this old man have not slapped you against the wall back then until you couldn't even be scraped off!” At his words, the elder clearly became angry, bristling with indignation. The look of grief and regret was so exaggerated that Jun Liye couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth.
Jun Li Ye smiled, her blood-red eyes glimmered like precious jewels, "Master, this is nothing but a charade."
"You're the one playing tricks!" The old man glared at him. Jun Liye saw him staring blankly at the sky, a trace of helplessness flashing in his eyes. "Alright, Master, just keep looking at the inevitable here, I'm leaving."
Seeing that he was really about to leave, the old man hurriedly stopped him, "Wait a minute."
"What's the matter" Jun Liye raised an eyebrow and glanced at him. Seeing the old man's serious and earnest expression, he continued, "After attending the Grand Ceremony of the Seven Nations, don't stay in Ximing for too long, it's best to leave as soon as possible."
Jun Li's night eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Why"
As an old man, I gazed at the celestial phenomena at night and saw the appearance of the Phoenix Star. The moment the Phoenix Star appeared, chaos reigned throughout the land.
"Phoenix God Star Do you know who that is" Under Jun Liye's inquiring gaze, the old man honestly shook his head.
Therefore, Jun Li despised him at night.
To say that one's ultimate skill can know destiny, doesn't that hurt your face
The old man : "..."
The disdainful gaze made the old man's face flush red. "What are you looking at The Phoenix Star is a heavenly secret, it must not be revealed, or I will suffer celestial retribution!"
Upon hearing this, Jun Li's gaze at him became even more contemptuous. "Oh Secrets of Heaven cannot be revealed"
The old man : "..."
What was the look in his eyescess, this cup is for you. I hope the Fifth Princess won't find it objectionable."Hearing the sound, Su Qingying instantly withdrew her smile. Her phoenix eyes lingered for a moment on the water wine...
