The Two-Faced Venerate Emperor

Chapter 567 – Startled

When ‘Huan Jiu Li’ heard that Huan Qing Yan had been harmed, a murderous aura emitted from him for an instant, enough that the little white dove jumped and stopped flying from fright.

But when he heard that she was eventually saved, his expression turned slightly softer, “Where was Ji Mo Ya’s last known location?”

“Seemingly the Purple Cloud Mountains before he suddenly disappeared. Please rest assure, Roc Emperor, we will definitely find answers.”

‘Huan Jiu Li’ suddenly felt anxiousness welling up in his heart, now that he had returned to the Demon Lands, the distance between the two territories had caused a gap in communication and he was also too far away to do anything. It was all that Eagle Demon’s fault for causing him to return early; he can only hope that nothing else happened to that lass, else he will be unable to explain.

That little white dove started to feel excited and gossipy, “Roc Emperor, rumor has it that Ji Mo Ya and that Saintess-to-be Luan Girl has a marriage agreement. He will definitely attend the Saintess’s ceremony, and during then we might be able to locate Lady Huan’s whereabouts...”

All women, be it demons or humans, possessed a passionate heart for gossips.

‘Huan Jiu Li’ squinted his eyes as he arrogantly said, “From the looks of things, I should really do something to join the humans and celebrate them getting their Saintess!”

“Well said, which Greater Demon would the Roc Emperor wishes to send?” the little white dove happily asked.

“This emperor shall head down personally!” ‘Huan Jiu Li’ sneered.

“Ah?”

Huan Qing Yan was currently feeding the third bowl of Red Date Lingzi Soup to the dragon spirit.

Her pig and leaf spirit treasures surrounded the dragon spirit as they watch it drank the medicinal food with expressions of jealousy, envy and hatred!

The two of them really wanted to eat, but their current illusion state makes it impossible for them to do so.

Especially the pig spirit treasure, it shamelessly attempted to disturb the dragon spirit treasure by charging at it; even the leaf spirit treasure also attempted and assisted. These two spirit treasures of Huan Qing Yan had surprisingly stopped fighting with each other and teamed up instead.

They were exceptionally indignant about the fact that the dragon spirit treasure ability to eat while they were unable to do so.

The dragon spirit treasure had completely ignored the disturbances such as poking, tackling, pushing, biting etc.; it simply swung its tail and threw the two far away before it continued to graceful enjoy its meal.

While the three spirit treasures were fooling around, Huan Qing Yan looked outside the carriage’s window and enjoyed the scenery...

“Young Master Ya, is this the direction of Surging Wave Academia?”

They have been travelling for five days already and Huan Qing Yan’s instincts were telling her that this was not the route towards Surging Wave Academia!

Within the flying carriage, Huan Qing Yan and Ji Mo Ya were spending time together, eating and playing while enjoying the scenery as and when they like, the days were spent extremely comfortably, and before they noticed, they had already left the Purple Cloud Mountains far behind.

Everyday, she would create all sorts of spirit dishes to feed herself, make nutritious medicinal foods for the dragon spirit treasure to eat or brew some Spirit Grain Wine. Now within her storage room, there was a large stock of Spirit Grain Wine stored.

Spirit Grain Wine was something that Ji Mo Ya and the dragon spirit treasure both enjoyed drinking.

“Oh, who told you that we are returning to Surging Wave Academia?” Ji Mo Ya lazily said.

The past few days, he had been reading a book, however, the book has no title, it felt like the book was a secret manual or something similar.

Huan Qing Yan was startled, she had always thought that they were heading towards Surging Wave Academia, “Didn’t you tell me to earn credits to exchange for True Spirit Grass when I return to Surging Wave so that I can quickly become a True Spirit Master!?”

“There’s no hurry. The Holy Court is holding a ceremony to confer the title of Saintess, we need to participate.”

“Wow, the Saintess!” Huan Qing Yan seemed to remember something a teacher mentioning about it before, “Hasn’t it been over a century since we have a Saintess?”
