The leader of the Wuyue clan is the clan's high priest, a woman who looks to be in her early forties and still looks charming.

She came to Nan Nian with a smile and said, "Your Majesty must be tired after a long journey. Your Majesty has already prepared the room. Why don't you go and rest first?"

Nan Nian could feel the high priest looking at her vaguely. Of course, Nan Nian was also looking at her.

"The high priest is much younger than Gu imagined." Nan Nian thought before that the priests of this clan were in their sixties.

Nan Nian's words made it impossible to hear the emotion or anger, and the intention could not be discerned. The high priest could only smile and praise, "Your Majesty is so beautiful in the world. I am lucky to see you. It is a blessing for me and the Wuyue clan."

Nan Nian nodded, his face not red, his heart not beating, "Of course."

High Priest of the Wuyue Clan: "..."

Don't you all be humble?

Seemingly not noticing the high priest's frozen expression, Nan Nian turned around and asked, "What's your name?"

High Priest: "My name is Wu Zhu."

"Everyone in your Wuyue clan is named Wu?" Nan Nian asked curiously.

"No, only the successive high priests have the surname Wu."

"Oh." Nan Nian nodded thoughtfully, as if everything was just a casual question. After asking, he naturally lost interest, "I'm tired, lead the way to the room."

The careless look on his face showed that the owner was not in high spirits, and he looked really tired.After suppressing all the thoughts in his heart, Wu Zhu lowered his eyes and said, "Yes."

Immediately, some tribesmen came forward to guide Nan Nian and Xu Ci.

"Your Majesty, this is it."

The Wuyue tribesman who led the way lowered his eyes respectfully, not even daring to look at Nan Nian.

"Where does he live?" Nan Nian did not enter the house immediately, but asked while looking outside the house.

This him, of course, refers to Xu Ci.

"This master's residence is arranged in the west." The tribesman said.

"No need, he can just live here." After saying that, Nan Nian didn't care about the reaction of the tribesman, and pulled Xu Ci into the house.

Most of the furnishings in the house were made of wood, and the patterns carved on them were very similar to the patterns on the box that contained the detoxification pill. Nan Nian guessed that this pattern might have some special meaning to the Wuyue clan.Looking around the house, you can see that it has been carefully prepared.As soon as Nan Nian sat down on the bed, he found Xu Ci looking at him with a embarrassed expression.

"what happened?"

"I, we...are we really going to live together?" Xu Ci found that his palms were already sweating.

Amused by Xu Ci's performance, Nan Nian stood up and walked slowly to him. As the distance got closer, Xu Ci's heartbeat accelerated with Nan Nian's steps.

"Are you... shy?" Nan Nian lengthened her tone. It was obvious that she wanted to tease Xu Ci.

Xu Ci's face turned completely red.

Nan Nian couldn't control it anymore and burst into laughter. After a while, Nan Nian burst into tears in his eyes, "Don't worry, kid, I won't do anything to you."

Xu Ci pursed his lips.

Actually he is not...

There are some words that I just don’t know how to say.

Nan Nian distanced herself from Xu Ci and explained, "I'm afraid that if you don't live with me, something might happen to you anytime."

It would be bad if Xu Ci accidentally lost his life here again.

Hearing this, Xu Ci looked a little more serious, "I have always been doubtful about what the Wuyue tribe said, that the high priest can reach the sky." Although during this period, Xu Ci has seen many strange and chaotic people. Something, but he still didn’t believe in the Wuyue Clan.

"Is it possible that the revival of Chonghuang Kingdom they talk about is just a cover?"

Nan Nian nodded, but his face was not as serious as Xu Ci. He smiled and said, "Guess how many of them believe that I am Huang Emperor Nan Ling?"

Even if she really is, how many people may believe that a person who died more than 2000 years ago will suddenly come back to life?

……

Speaking of rest, Nan Nian actually rested. When she woke up leisurely, it was already dark.

"Your Majesty, do you want to eat?" The voice of the Wuyue tribesman who led the way during the day sounded outside the door. He seemed to have been specially sent to this courtyard to serve Nan Nian.

Opening the door, Nan Nian leaned lazily against the door. She was wearing an improved retro long skirt. Her long hair was unmodified and hanging down. The moonlight was quiet, but the boy of twelve or thirteen years old was caught off guard and looked at him. The appearance of the person in front of me.

His eyes flashed with dazzling surprise, His Majesty the Phoenix Emperor was really as beautiful as the painting.

No, it’s even more beautiful than the painting!

During the day, he kept his head lowered, never and did not dare to look directly at Nan Nian's face. In the Wuyue Clan, His Majesty the Phoenix Emperor was like a god and was the faith of the whole clan. How could they be a god that they could peep at? of?

Thinking of this, the boy quickly lowered his head and said, "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

"What's your name?" Nan Nian asked as if he were chatting.

"My, my name is Xiao Wu."

"Xiao Wu?" Nan Nian blinked, what is this name?

The boy explained, "I am the fifth in the family, so everyone calls me Xiao Wu." As he spoke, the boy's voice deepened, so soft that it almost disappeared without a trace in the night. , "Actually, I don't have a name..."

I don't know if Nan Nian heard the boy's last words. She just leaned against the door, looked up at the bright moon above her head, and said casually, "How about I give you a name."

"Really?" The boy raised his head excitedly, his eyes indescribably bright.

Nan Nian smiled, "Your eyes are very beautiful. How about calling them Xingchen?"

The boy smiled at first, then quickly lowered his head, "No."

"why?"

"Star and moon are two sacred words in the Wuyue clan. Even the high priest cannot call them."

In the Wuyue Clan, the art of poisoning is only taught to women, and the most lofty position of the high priest can only be held by a woman. Therefore, in the Wuyue Clan, men have a low status, and even the high priest dare not use the two words , how dare he use it as a person who doesn’t even have a serious name?

"Isn't it okay even if I give you a name?"

The boy raised his head, his eyes a little confused, he...he didn't know if he could do it.

Seeing this, Nan Nian made the final decision, "From now on, you will be called Xingchen. This is the name given to you by Gu. You are qualified."

Light gradually brightened in the boy's eyes, and he smiled cheerfully, "Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, do you want to eat? I'll bring it to you." The stars at this moment were very similar to the starry-eyed Xu Ci when he first met Nan Nian.

"it is good."

After Xingchen ran away excitedly, Xu Ci walked out and stood next to Nan Nian.

"He looks quite similar to you." Nan Nian looked at Xu Ci and smiled.

Pursing the corners of his lips, Xu Cicai said, "He is a brat, I am not."
