It was very strange. After hearing Senior Liu’s voice, those terrifying visions disappeared in an instant.
However, because the Zhu Zhao had resisted the visions for too long, his body was exhausted and he could only lie on the ground, unable to move.
Liu Changgong held a few yellow paper bags in one hand. Inside were the roast chicken and stewed beef from Shopkeeper Wang’s house, and in the other hand was a gourd filled with bamboo leaves.
He was humming a song as he slowly walked into the shop. To his surprise, he saw a familiar figure lying on the ground.
Wasn’t this the elder of Yu Linglong from the Grand Moon Sect?
“Eh? Isn’t this Old Mr. Zhu? Why are you lying on the ground?” Liu Changgong said as he was about to go forward and help the old mister up.
Zhu Zhao saw that Senior wanted to help him up personally. His originally weak body borrowed strength from god knows where and he immediately stood up.
Liu Changgong looked at the agile old mister with his mouth agape. He thought to himself, is this old mister training his body? He actually likes to lie on the ground in the middle of winter…
“Mister Liu, it’s fine. You don’t have to help me up.” Zhu Zhao tried his best to hold on. After such a lesson, how would he dare to let Senior help him up personally?
“Eh? Why are there two more animals?” Liu Changgong looked at the cat, fox, and rabbit lying on the ground and asked with a strange expression. “Could it be that you, Old Mr. Zhu, sent them? They look quite clean, but I’m afraid I can’t keep more pets here.”
When Zhu Zhao heard this, he thought that his senior was hinting that his purpose of coming here was the same as these two small demons. He could let him off this time, but if he came again, there wouldn’t be a next time.
Zhu Zhao quickly expressed that he didn’t know the origin of these animals. He had already seen them when he entered the shop.
Seeing Zhu Zhao’s respectful manner, Liu Changgong was a little moved. It seemed that Yu Linglong and the others were really obsessed with painting and calligraphy. A mortal like him only surpassed them in painting and calligraphy, yet they respected him so much… His etiquette was really impeccable. It was really too rare.
Liu Changgong picked up the two animals casually and pinched their necks. He casually placed them on the table.
Zhu Zhao’s eyelids twitched as he saw the two demons being lifted up like pets.
“How did you two little fellows come to my shop? Fortunately, nothing was damaged. Otherwise… Otherwise…” Liu Changgong thought for a long time but couldn’t think of any threats. After all, how could a small animal know what he was talking about? Moreover, he wouldn’t argue with a small animal.
When the two demons who came to look for Su Yue heard Liu Changgong’s words, their hearts could be said to be filled with terror. If such a mighty figure like this senior were to argue with them, they probably wouldn’t even know how they died…
Immediately, the two demons, in their animal forms, began to whimper softly and beg Liu Changgong for mercy. They didn’t want to do so! But if this bigshot killed them in a moment of unhappiness, where would they go to cry?
This scene immediately made Liu Changgong not know whether to laugh or cry.
‘Otherwise, what will happen? Will I be silenced?’ Zhu Zhao thought to himself. At the same time, he had a better understanding of Senior Liu’s sharpness.
“Senior Zhu, why are you free to come to my store now? Are you here to buy paintings?”
Liu Changgong casually chatted with Zhu Zhao while stroking the animals on the table. The two demons appeared even more docile. In his hands, they didn’t even dare to move!
Was he hinting about the painting? This senior really liked to beat around the bush. No, he couldn’t stay here any longer. Thinking of this, Zhu Zhao took his leave.
“Senior’s paintings are priceless treasures. How can I afford them? It’s getting late. I’ll be going back today. I’ll visit you another day.”
Zhu Zhao didn’t wait for Liu Changgong to reply and ran away.
By the time Liu Changgong reacted, he was already gone.
Liu Changgong looked at Zhu Zhao’s disappearing figure on the street, his face full of regret.
“Although my paintings are indeed very good, how do you know that you can’t afford it without even asking for a price? Your junior, Yu Linglong, brought a lot of money when she came here. Don’t tell me that you, as an elder, are not as rich as this junior?”
Seeing that Zhu Zhao really had no intention of coming back, Liu Changgong quickly recovered. He closed the door and took out the roast chicken and stewed beef that he had just bought.
When he took out the bowl that he and Little Fox were eating, he saw that there were two more small animals in his house. He sighed and took out two more bowls.
He separated half of Little Fox’s roast chicken and placed a little in the black cat’s bowl. Finally, he placed the vegetables that were prepared in the kitchen for the egg noodles in the rabbit’s bowl.
He placed the bowl in front of them and said softly, “Eat!”
After saying that, he started to eat by himself.
Seeing the roast chicken in front of him, the black cat felt as if she had been insulted. She pushed the bowl away with her paw.
“Meow– Meow– (Even if I starve to death, I wouldn’t eat a mouthful of roast chicken even if I jumped down from here.)” the black cat shouted arrogantly.
“Aooo (The roast chicken is so fragrant!)” Little Fox ate the roast chicken in front of her in small bites and let out a sound of happiness.
“Ji ji (The vegetables are also very delicious!)” The rabbit too had betrayed the organization.
“Don’t you have any backbone? It was him that caused you and I to turn back into our original forms, and now you’re eating his food? …Wu! …Wu?”
Little Fox saw that half of her roast chicken had been given away. The black cat was still making noise here. She raised her hand and covered her mouth with the chicken’s wings.
As soon as the chicken wings entered her mouth, the black cat was very angry, but her mouth moved.
“Meow~ Meow~ (Roast chicken is so fragrant, I love eating roast chicken the most.)”
Liu Changgong looked at the three little animals eating very happily and revealed a trace of a smile.
Just as Liu Changgong and the others were enjoying their dinner in satisfaction, a flying shuttle controlled by a cultivator was rapidly approaching the Grand Moon Sect.
The flying shuttle looked like two canoes combined. Its entire body was flashing with golden light and there were layers of runes on it. It looked exceptionally luxurious.
Wherever the flying shuttle passed, some cultivators could not help but exclaim in admiration, “A flying shuttle at the level of a supreme-grade magic treasure. I really don’t know what kind of bigshot will be inside.”
Li Xuanmen tidied up his appearance and took a deep breath. He mustered up his courage and walked to the side of the graceful and fairy-like woman who was standing at the edge of the flying shuttle.
As the Second Prince of the Southern Territory Xia Kingdom, he was here to represent the imperial family in congratulating Daoist Master Zhu Zhao for breaking through to the Dharma Idol realm.
However, he did not expect to meet the Saintess of Gusu Zhongliu Island on the way. She was known as the number one beauty of the Southern Territory, Wang Yuyan, Fairy Wang.
Li Xuanmen was captivated by Fairy Wang the moment he saw her. He wanted to give it a try and invite her to the flying shuttle for a chat. Unexpectedly, Fairy Wang agreed to it immediately.
Now that he thought about it, Li Xuanmen felt like he was in a dream. He felt dizzy.
This really made him unable to help but daydream. Could it be…
