The Prodigal Son of the Mystical Sect

With a slight shift in his mind, Chu Tianxiao put away the interface and was about to step out of the room. However, at this moment, an old and familiar voice came over...

"The Prodigal Marquis, Your Majesty has invited me."

…

There was a tall man leading the way, and not long after, Chu Tianxiao arrived at a side hall and met Emperor Zhou.

The moment they met, Chu Tianxiao realized... things were by no means simple!

Because there was actually a hint of fatigue on Emperor Zhou's face!

Although this fatigue is quite superficial, if it weren't for a careful person like Chu Tianxiao, there would be no way to detect it. But you must know that Emperor Zhou is a strong man above the fifth realm. How can something that can make him 'tired' be a trivial matter?

"Meier's condition has been stabilized."

As if he could see the uneasiness in Chu Tianxiao's heart, Emperor Zhou said this.

Hearing the sound, Chu Tianxiao breathed a long sigh of relief, lowered his head, pressed his fists and said in shame, "It's all me..."

"I have heard what Mei'er said about the cause and effect." Before he finished speaking, Emperor Zhou interrupted directly, "This matter is Xiao Mei'er's own decision. What does it have to do with you, a little prodigal? What's more... this is not because of you. "

"Huh? What do you mean by your Majesty's words?" When Chu Tianxiao heard this, he suddenly showed a puzzled look, and then Emperor Zhou slowly shook his head: "Little Meier's illness... is a congenital and stubborn disease, and it will last for many years. I haven’t gotten sick yet…”

"A congenital disease?" Chu Tianxiao felt nervous after hearing this, "Even His Majesty can't cure it?"

"...Back then, Xiao Mei'er's illness was still mild, with no obvious symptoms, and even I couldn't detect the weirdness... I thought it should have been cured, but who would have thought that it was just latent..." Emperor Zhou looked at him. There was a solemn look on his face, "To this day, I can no longer get rid of it..."

Seeing Chu Tianxiao's disbelieving look, Emperor Zhou sighed and said in a long voice: "Little prodigal son, you should know that even those who are above the Five Realms are not omnipotent..."

Hearing the sound, Chu Tianxiao was silent for a moment, then raised his head: "Isn't that Mei'er..."

"No need to worry too much."

Emperor Zhou interrupted: "In the past few days, I have used my majestic energy to completely suppress the cold poison, and it will not be able to cause trouble for several years... But if she wants to be cured, you still need to take her to the academy. "

Hearing this, Chu Tianxiao's eyes lit up, and he secretly thought in his heart that caring would lead to chaos... How could he forget this "Master of the World"?

If the academic dean of the academy takes action...

With this in his mind, Chu Tianxiao nodded quickly: "In that case, it shouldn't be too late..."

"Don't be anxious." Emperor Zhou shook his head, then with a click of his right hand, a white letter fell into Chu Tianxiao's hand.

"Take this letter and go... In addition, the situation is delicate now, so in order not to be too conspicuous, it will be just the two of you on this trip."

Hearing the sound, Chu Tianxiao was slightly startled, as if he didn't understand what the 'delicacy of the situation' was...

Could it be...

Is it related to the identity of the "physical body" that was blocked by the higher-ups and abandoned by Ku?

For a moment, Chu Tianxiao seemed to smell an unusual scent, but at that moment he didn't want to think too much, he just put the letter away, nodded and wanted to leave.

Then, just as he turned around and was about to go out, Emperor Zhou's long words suddenly came...

True Yuan Sound Transmission!

"Little prodigal son, what you and Meier are going to do is very dangerous."

The meaning of these words was vague, but Chu Tianxiao immediately heard the deeper meaning...

It seemed that Lu Meier did not hide some things from Emperor Zhou.

However, Chu Tianxiao was not to blame.

After all, if even Emperor Zhou cannot be trusted, then there really is no chance of success in this matter...

Just listen to the sound in my ears.

"On that day, you did not participate in the Autumn Examination, but you wanted to be ranked first in the Autumn Examination. It was whimsical enough... But now it seems that I still underestimated you."

"At that time, you said your life was at stake, but now, are you being bold?"

Hearing this sound, Chu Tianxiao stared slightly, and quickly sent a message back: "Mei'er should have already explained some things, so I'll just tell you some fantasy..."

"...I really want to hear it."

"The demon world... I'm afraid there is some way to destroy the situation."

Hearing the sound, Emperor Zhou narrowed his eyes.

"So...are you compromising?"

"The situation has changed. Since there is no need to continue the war, why let the human race bleed for it? Victory without fighting is the king's way, not to mention..." After passing this sentence, Chu Tianxiao raised his head slightly, with a look in his eyes. Complex, "Humans and demons may have a common enemy..."

The last sound reached Emperor Zhou's ears, causing his expression to change slightly.

"What's the explanation?"

"...It's just a guess. Who can say for sure about the 'future'?"

Hearing the sound, Emperor Zhou fell into silence. After a while, the message was transmitted again: "Little prodigal son, I don't know what your plans are, but it's still too late to stop now."

"You have a bright future, so why take such a risk? Could it be that you are so lustful that you are out of your wits?"

"Huh... Sex makes you faint?" Chu Tianxiao smiled lightly and shook his head slowly after hearing this, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, but I am very conscious."

"For me, some promises, once they are made, cannot be taken seriously... After all, I am a prodigal. Everything depends on my heart."

Speaking of this, Chu Tianxiao paused for a moment, and his voice gradually turned ethereal, as if he was thinking of the death words of the monument keeper that day...

"Perhaps... this is the cry deep in my heart... or in other words, mission?"

Hearing the voice, Emperor Zhou remained silent, but Chu Tianxiao looked directly at Emperor Zhou at this moment and said in an extremely solemn tone: "So Your Majesty..."

"Please, believe me again."

"..."

Hearing the voice, Emperor Zhou pondered for a long time and finally sent a message again.

"The second time."

Chu Tianxiao's eyes lit up and he nodded slowly.

The same person, the same scene, the same trust.

This is the second time he had a wild idea.

"I will not give you any support, and I will not say a word for you... unless you have built momentum."

Chu Tianxiao nodded.

"If Shenzhou has any move to destroy the demons, the Great Zhou will temporarily suspend its efforts. But before winter, I will still swear to destroy the demons... So, you don't have much time."

Chu Tianxiao nodded again.

"The mineral veins of Tianhuang Continent far exceed those of Shenzhou. They are useless to the demons, but they are wealth to our human race. If those demons are really sincere, they should know what to leave behind."

Chu Tianxiao's eyes lit up instantly: "Bid for passage?"

"..." Emperor Zhou was speechless for a while, and Chu Tianxiao smiled awkwardly: "Ahem... Your Majesty, you continue, you continue."

Emperor Zhou looked at him deeply, and then continued to transmit the voice.

"Humans and demons are tired of each other, so it's better not to see each other."

"You can find a way to deal with the difficulties... Take care of yourself."

As he said, Emperor Zhou turned around suddenly and said the last sentence.

"Also, don't let Mei'er down."

After this voice fell, Emperor Zhou's figure disappeared in the field in an instant, and even the afterimage could not be seen clearly...

Chu Tianxiao breathed a sigh of relief.

Although there is still a big gap between the promise given by Emperor Zhou and what some demons want, Chu Tianxiao is already very pleased to get this result.

After all, Emperor Zhou is not a "time traveler" like Chu Tianxiao, and his natural perspective is to destroy demons... He can make such a concession, and I think a big reason is still because of Lu Mei'er...

"Well... let's do it this way."

"Recharge your energy tonight, and set off with Mei'er tomorrow morning. First cure the disease, and do the rest of the things. By the way, find an opportunity to ruin the family?"

Thinking of this, Chu Tianxiao's eyes narrowed, and suddenly... a light flashed.

A thought came up uncontrollably.

"Wait... the timing of Mei'er's illness... is it a coincidence?"
