2302 Just Say It

After Yu Qian left the lightning pool, he walked straight back to Phoenix Mountain.

Tuan Zi was nestled in Chu Liuyue’s arms, and the two of them were whispering to each other.

Sensing his movements, the two of them looked up.

Tuan Zi immediately became vigilant and jumped out of Chu Liuyue’s arms to block her.

Yu Qian came forward and first scanned Tuan Zi from head to toe. After confirming that she was safe and sound, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. “Don’t worry. I don’t plan on doing anything to her today.”

Tuan Zi was skeptical. “Who knows how true and how fake your words are!? Moreover, you even locked up Clan Leader Grandpa!”

Her little face was filled with anger, as if she had yet to recover from the impact of this matter.

Yu Qian wasn’t surprised by Tuan Zi’s reaction.

She was the young mistress of the red-gold heavenly phoenix race. Seeing Yi Zhao suffer, she naturally couldn’t accept it.

“It’s a long story. Yi Zhao made a mistake first, so we locked him in the lightning pool just to wake him up. Unfortunately, he’s still stubborn and even did this in the end.” Yu Qian’s usually gentle expression was now a little cold and heavy, making people shiver.

“I believe you’ve already seen clearly what he did. Yi Gong died, and his soul was destroyed. The entire lightning pool was almost destroyed by him! I can only say that he reaped what he sowed.”

Tuan Zi bit her lips and clenched her fists tightly. “First Elder betrayed the clan first, so it’s only right that Clan Leader Grandpa wanted to kill him! This is a matter of our red-gold heavenly phoenix clan. When is it up to outsiders like you to judge?”

She glared at Yu Qian. “Release Clan Leader Grandpa immediately!”

Yu Qian laughed instead of getting angry. “It’s very simple if you want to save him. In the future, as long as you stay here and cultivate well, I guarantee that his life will be safe. When you open your ninth meridian, I’ll release him.”

Tuan Zi was shocked, and Chu Liuyue subconsciously frowned. Ninth meridian? In the entire red-gold heavenly phoenix race, only their ancestor, Yi Ling, has done it in so many years. Yu Qian actually has such high expectations of Tuan Zi?!

In addition, what is his motive in doing this?

To be honest, even Yi Zhao might not rush Tuan Zi to open her meridian, nor would he place this pressure on her shoulders. However, Yu Qian… What is he anxious about?

“Then, how long will we have to wait?! I think you’re just trying to fool me!” Tuan Zi secretly gritted her teeth.

“How am I fooling you? Don’t forget that you have the purest bloodline. Now that you’ve successfully opened the seventh meridian before you’re an adult, you’ll definitely be able to successfully open the ninth meridian in the future—there’s no doubt about that. As for how long it takes… That depends on you.”

Yu Qian looked around. “There’s no place more suitable for you to cultivate than Phoenix Mountain. With your current aptitude, why do you have to worry about not being able to open your meridians?”

Tuan Zi glared at him and didn’t speak. She just turned around and pounced on Chu Liuyue again, hugging her thigh tightly. “A’Yue, this person is so annoying!”

Chu Liuyue picked her up and looked at Yu Qian with a frown. “Second Deity, since you’ve already made your decision, I know that no one can persuade you. Since that’s the case, I hope you can keep your promise. On the day Tuan Zi opens her ninth meridian, you must release Clan Leader Yi Zhao!”

…

With that, Nan Jinshu stood quietly and waited patiently for a response.

A moment later, a low voice finally came from inside. “Come in.”

Creak—

The door clicked open.

Nan Jinshu took a deep breath and restrained the excitement that surged in his heart. He bowed respectfully again before walking forward. Then, he crossed the doorstep and closed the door again.

Nan Jinshu’s figure disappeared behind the door.

Not far away, Jun Jiuqing stared at them thoughtfully for a long time. “The third music score… No wonder you’re so confident.”

He thought for a moment and turned to leave.

…

On this side, Nan Jinshu walked into the courtyard.

The courtyard was filled with thick fallen leaves. It was lonely and desolate, extremely cold.

If not for the fact that the sound just now had indeed come from inside, Nan Jinshu almost suspected that there was no one here at all.

This courtyard wasn’t big, and the furnishings were very simple. It was unimaginable that the incomparably noble First Deity lived in such a place.

Nan Jinshu looked at the closed door, his heart beating fast. After all, he was meeting the First Deity, so it was impossible not to be nervous.

He adjusted his collar to make sure there was nothing wrong with his appearance and posture before continuing forward. However, he had just taken a step when he suddenly heard a rustling sound from the side.

He was stunned and subconsciously turned to look.

Not far away, under the thick fallen leaves, something seemed to be moving.

“Quiet.” The low and indifferent voice sounded again, but it was clearly directed at the existence under the fallen leaves.

As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings fell silent again.

Nan Jinshu was a little puzzled. What is below? I’ve never heard of the First Deity raising anything before…

“Nan Jinshu.”

Hearing the First Deity call his name, Nan Jinshu’s heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said, “Yes.”

“Where is the third music score now?” The voice was direct.

Nan Jinshu was stunned for a moment. “This… First Deity, it’s more convenient for me to go in and talk, right?”

This matter was so confidential. It seemed strange to say it through the door.

“There’s no one else here. Just tell me.” His voice was indifferent and calm, but it couldn’t be rejected.
