Chapter 2413 - 2413 They Long Knew

2413 They Long Knew

Hong Yao did not turn around and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Tuan Zi stood there alone, holding the door frame. She pouted and harshly wiped her tears before she turned around and entered the house.

Bam!

She harshly closed the door without hesitation. Clearly, she was outraged.

Qi Han furrowed his brows even more tightly. Everything was clearly fine when they came back together. In the blink of an eye, why…

He hesitated for a moment and then went over to knock on the door. “Tuan Zi?”

Master wasn’t around, so he had to take care of her.

After a temporary silence, cries and whimpers could be heard from the room. “Boohoo—”

Qi Han paused in his actions. After some thinking, he swallowed his remaining words and continued standing guard by the door.

…

Yu Qian and Shu Jing quickly arrived in front of Mu Qinghe’s yard.

Seeing the tightly shut door, the duo exchanged a glance.

They had both suffered here before, so they were naturally more fearful at this moment. However, they had to solve the problem.

Yu Qian raised his chin toward Shu Jing. “Tell him about the medicinal mountain’s trouble yourself.”

Shu Jing’s heart harshly skipped a beat, but she didn’t dare to say anything and walked forward.

She knew that Yu Qian was punished and had to kneel here for three days and three nights. It was already very rare for him to come with her, so she didn’t dare to request more from Yu Qian.

But the moment she reached the door, and before she could speak, she heard the sounds of wings flapping.

She instinctively looked up and saw a green sparrow—burning with a green fire—passing through the barrier and entering the yard.

Shu Jing was taken aback. She rapidly turned around and looked at Yu Qian. “Second Deity, did you see it just now? That seems like a…”

“Ninth-grade green sparrow.” Yu Qian knitted his brows as well. Since when did such a fiend appear in the Fantasy Divine Hall? And it seems like it has an extraordinary relationship with the First Deity? If not, it definitely could not fly into such a place.

“First Deity has a fiend? When did this happen?” Shu Jing was confused.

All the deities did not have their own fiends, and only Second Deity Yu Qian was in charge of the legendary fiend mountain. But now, this—

Yu Qian shook his head and remarked, “I don’t know about this.”

After a moment, he urged, “Forget it. This isn’t something you or I can ask. You should quickly report the matter and let the First Deity decide!”

Shu Jing could only nod. “OK.”

She took a deep breath in, turned around, and respectfully gave her greeting. “First Deity, Shu Jing has urgent matters to report.”

After a moment, a cold and nonchalant voice sounded from inside. “I already know about the barrier. You can go back.”

Shu Jing was stumped. This… I didn’t even say anything, yet First Deity already knows?

Yu Qian’s expression changed slightly. First Deity hasn’t come out all these years, but many matters in Fantasy Divine Palace seem to have never escaped his control.

This caused Yu Qian to be secretly shocked again.

Originally, he thought that the First Deity had already decided to let go of his authority, but actually… he never had such intentions!

How could he fight with such a person?

Yu Qian suppressed his messy thoughts and willingly asked, “First Deity, this matter is grave. Shu Jing can’t solve it alone. Are… you not planning to take action? The Heaven Gate… is about to close.”

That voice sounded again: “I have my own plans.”

These few words expressed his attitude.

Shu Jing and Yu Qian exchanged glances and saw the confusion in each other’s eyes. At this stage, First Deity still refuses to appear? He says he has his own plans. What exactly are they?

Shu Jing originally wanted to continue asking, but Yu Qian already replied: “Okay. We understand.”

Then, he glanced at Shu Jing.

The two of them bade farewell in unison.

…

After walking for a distance, Shu Jing could not help but ask, “Second Deity, what do you think the First Deity is planning to do? So many things have happened in Fantasy Divine Palace during this period of time, but he refuses to appear. He can’t continue with this until the day the Heaven Gate closes, right?”

“Impossible.” Yu Qian immediately rejected her guess. “At that time, even the Emperor will come, let alone him. Let’s just wait.”

Anyway, they had already said their piece. If anything happened, they could not be completely blamed for it.

Hearing that name, Shu Jing suddenly felt deep respect and terror. Then, she suddenly thought of something and asked hesitantly, “Oh right, there’s something… Second Deity, do you know what the Left Divine General is busy with lately?”

Yu Qian glanced at her. “How am I supposed to know?”

The Left Divine General and Right Divine General were the Emperor’s most trusted aides, and they were the two strongest generals under him. They had distinguished statuses and were extremely strong.

Even he did not dare to casually treat them. How would he know any of this?

Shu Jing nodded in disappointment.

Actually, she had already guessed this outcome. However, she was indignant and wanted to ask clearly.

“Why did you suddenly ask this?”

“…Nothing much.” Shu Jing forced a smile and used a random reason to brush past the matter.

However, who was Yu Qian? He saw Shu Jing’s thoughts clearly, but he did not expose her.

“Time is about to be up. At that time, they will definitely appear with the Emperor. If there’s nothing urgent, just wait patiently.”

“Yes.”

…

The wait was always especially difficult.

Shangguan Jing glanced at the room suspiciously again. “It has already been so long. These two people… are not done with their chess game?”

…

In the room, Chu Liuyue stared closely at the chessboard in front of her, and her lips turned white slightly.

She rubbed the chess piece in her hands. She suddenly thought of something and looked at the man opposite her. “The one at Red Moon Desert back then was also you?”

Rong Xiu’s lips curled up slightly, and he did not deny it.

Chu Liuyue paused. “Big Baby and the rest… long knew of your identity?”
