Chapter 206: Stealing a Girl

On top of the Cloud Sea.

“Hey, that fellow immortal in there... Are you alright?” Ying Zhi’s face was a mask of worry. That Lady Shen looked like an Earth Immortal, but for some reason, all of these people were extremely confident in sending her into the Crystal Palace. Ying Zhi knew the Cloud Beast the best – he was understandably worried that something would go wrong in there.

“Don’t worry, Celestial Emperor. Shen Ying knows what to do,” Lonemoon responded. He thought for awhile and added, “I think?” He just hoped that she would not cause trouble.

“...” What does he mean by he thinks? Now, Ying Zhi was even more worried than before!

“The eddy on the sea is gone!” Someone shouted.

All of them paused and turned to look. Indeed, a few metres from them, the eddy which was protected by the golden array had disappeared. Instead, there was calm. Even the waves had stopped.

Now that the eddy was gone, the hole that was probably opened by the Cloud Beast had closed as well. Ying Zhi was elated. Indeed, an immortal came up to report awhile later that the Cloud Sea was no longer leaking. Ying Zhi heaved a sigh of relief. It looked like the Cloud Beast had been persuaded.

The few of them waited for awhile longer. Faintly, they saw a huge bubble rising from the seabed. It cut through the sea and flew toward the crowd. Inside the bubble stood two figures – a tall one and a short one. The taller one was Shen Ying, but the one next to her looked like a child, and must have been the Cloud Beast.

“Ying Zhi...” Before they reached them, the Cloud Beast suddenly charged out of the bubble and fell into Ying Zhi’s arms. It started to wail like a baby. “Wah! I will never despise you again! I will never threaten to leave the Cloud Sea again!” The Big Sister out there is super scary!

Ying Zhi stared blankly at the Cloud Beast, who suddenly had a complete change in attitude. It was even more affectionate than it had been before it realised Ying Zhi’s true gender. Ying Zhi did not know how to react. He patted the patting Cloud Beast awkwardly and sighed, “It’s good that you’ve figured things out.”

“How did you do that?” Lonemoon whispered to Shen Ying, who was now sitting atop Yi Qing’s sword. Everyone heard how much the Cloud Beast despised Ying Zhi before. How did she manage to get them to reconcile after just five minutes? Was she that good at the art of persuasion?

“I didn’t do anything. I just went in to talk some sense into it,” Shen Ying calmly answered.

“Oh.” Lonemoon nodded. Then, he jumped.

Wait a moment!

Shen Ying’s reasoning techniques were just...

He turned and pursed his lips. The Cloud Beast’s face was indeed still swollen. That freak must have been responsible for it!

“Thank you, Fellow Immortals. You helped my Cloud Sea avert a great danger,” Ying Zhi thanked them sincerely. He looked at Shen Ying gratefully and said, “It must have been tough on you, Fellow Immortal. If you ever need help from the Cloud Sea in the future, Ying Zhi will definitely do what he can.”

“It’s alright. Everybody’s household has children in need of disciplining,” Shen Ying replied.

The child in Ying Zhi’s arms trembled and buried its head deeper into Ying Zhi’s embrace. It did not even dare to look back at Shen Ying.

“Since that’s the case, we will not hold you up any longer,” Lonemoon announced. He stepped forward and cupped his fists, bidding his farewell. He was going to take the chance while Ying Zhi had not realised something was wrong to escape.

“Friends... You’re leaving so soon?” Ying Zhi looked longingly at Lan Hua, obviously not wanting him to leave.

Lan Hua shivered. He rubbed the goosebumps on his hands and chucked Radish into Lonemoon’s hands, saying, “Let’s hurry. Didn’t we want to look for Xin Han?” Lan Hua turned and flew out.

“Ah Hua...” Ying Zhi tried to stop him, but he was stopped by the Cloud Beast and was not fast enough.

The few of them followed closely behind Lan Hua and flew out of the heavenly gates in a flash.

“Where are we going now?” Lan Hua asked.

“The Bo Sea, in the Void Land,” Lonemoon replied.

“Celestial Emperor Lan Hua, although people have said that the Celestial Emperor of the Bo Sea had already scanned the place,” Chen Ge began explaining, “But the Bo Sea is not far from here. It would not be too much trouble for us to go there and take a quick look around.”

“I know, but...” Lan Hua pursed his lips and turned back to face Lan Yu. “Why are you following us? Do these things even concern you?”

“Why does it matter to you where I go?” Lan Yu rebutted, glaring at Lan Hua. “Hmph, we’ll settle the scores between us in the future! Don’t think that I’m going to let you off.” Lan Yu turned and stared at Shen Ying instead. Now, his gaze was much more gentle and affectionate. He smiled extremely widely and said, “Lady Shen, the road to the Void Land is extremely dangerous. Why don’t you let Lan Yu follow you so that I can protect you?”

“Er...” Shen Ying paused. Do I know you very well?

“Don’t worry – I’m a Celestial Emperor, and a talismans one at that. I know all there is to know about dharmic talismans. I have all kinds of talismans with me – just tell what you want?” He stepped forward and pulled a long list of talismans out of his bag. The list was as thick as a dictionary. Lan Yu stuffed it in Shen Ying’s hand.

Everyone: “...”

Speaking of that... Was giving out their family fortune part of the Lan family tradition?

( ???;)

“What are you trying to do?” Lan Hua exploded before anyone could react to Lan Yu. He stepped between the two of them and glared warningly at his brother. “Are you trying to use my good heart to get rid of me? Dream on! I’m warning you – attack me if you want to! Leave her alone!”

“Hmph, you’re allowed to steal my people, but I’m not allowed to steal yours?”

“Who stole your people!”

“You’re trying to deny-”

“I wasn’t the one who courted your girl. I did nothing.”

“If not for you, would she have treated me that way?”

“What has it got to do with me!”

The two of them were going to start arguing again. Yi Qing could not help but draw his own sword and shout, “Master, which one do you want me to kill first?” These two bastards are trying to steal my master!

?(???)

Lonemoon: “...”

Chen Ge: “...”

Shen Ying: “...”

Lan Yu thought simply. His older brother stole his girl, thus he will reciprocate by taking an eye for an eye. All these years, other than their mother, Lan Hua did not have any woman by his side. Shen Ying was the first love interest that Lan Hua ever had, and she was quite beautiful too. Lan Yu guessed that she was Lan Hua’s companion – he was determined to steal her.

Lan Hua’s thinking was even simpler. This younger brother of his was out to cheat him of all of his possessions. His younger brother always wanted to copy him, but this was understandable.As the older sibling, Lan Hua was willing to forget all the debts that Lan Yu owed to him. But it was obvious that Lan Yu was in the wrong for eyeing his good heart. It became obvious that he wanted to use Lan Hua’s good heart to take revenge on him. Lan Hua would actually benefit from having his good heart killed, but... he could not control himself! The thought of someone hurting his good heart was too much for him to bear!

(?°?°)?(???

“Lady Shen, I’m serious.” Lan Yu turned around and grabbed Shen Ying’s hand. Very passionately, he said, “Believe me. I will be good to you. Let’s forget about going to the Void Land – why not you return with me to Yun Feng?”

“Bastard! Let go of her!” Lan Hua drew his weapon and charged at his younger brother.”

The two of them were going to engage in battle.

“Well...” Shen Ying suddenly spoke. Very calmly, she said, “Lan Lu...”

“I am Lan Yu.” Who’s Lan Lu?

‘Oh. Let me ask you something.”

“Please do, Lady.”

“Is it addictive... to be a spare tyre?”

Lan Yu: “...”

Lan Hua: “...”

Yi Qing, who was about to attack them: “...”

Everyone: “...”

Crack! It sounded like something just broke.
