Chapter 97 Xiao Douya Display His Talent
Unexpectedly, Ou Jingyu was Yan Shen’s spy. Xu Yin returned the palace and told it to his younger brother. Xu Xi could not bear to put the hands in the sleeves and look on, claiming that You Qingcheng should be inford of it so that she could be on guard. But Xu Xi was about to go out when Xu Yin stopped him. Xu Xi was burnt with anxiety, but had to listen to his elder brother’s words.
“Elder Brother, you always restrain . Is it aningful for to be alive?”
Xu Xi was resentful inwardly but unable to do anything else except falling in the sulks. Xu Yin gave out a long sigh. His brother was too shortsighted and diocre to understand the fact that Ou Jingyu was beneficial to the Western Palace. What’s more, Ou Jingyu was Yan Shen’s pawn. Yan’s influence in the Qi Kingdom was unshakable. The reason why Yan Shen asked Ou Jingyu to enter the palace was to vent his spleen, since Di Qing rendered the position of Commander-in-General to the princess’s husband. As a matter of fact, Yan Shen was sure to get, but no one knew that Di Qing played tricks which made Yan Shen appear rather ridiculous. Being the Assistant Pri Minister of the Qi Kingdom, Yan Shen could not reconcile himself to the plot, so he found a substitute and arranged her into the palace. Judging from Ou Jingyu’s appearance, it was obvious that Yan Shen had plotted it a long ti before since it was not so easy to find a person sharing the high simliarity with the Queen.
“Elder brother, can you still rember Zhou Yi of Kunlun?”
“Yes. He is the person who ca up with the dumb idea last ti to fra a case against the third brother. What’s wrong?”
“Today, the Master sent to inquire about sothing in the Qiankun Hall. And I ca across Zhou Yi at the gate of hall. Then, Xiao Liuzi asked for sothing. When I returned, Zhou Yi had disappeared. I had Xiao Liuzi to see more and then I knew that the man in robe entered the imperial study.”
“It seems that there is sothing big happening in Kunlun. The third brother is the Master of Kunlun. Zhou Yi ca to the human world so suddenly that there must be so conspiracy. Well, I have to go see it.”
“Elder brother, wait for ...”
Xu Yin rushed to Qiankun Hall where discussions and consultations were held. The palace lanterns gave off orange light, and several flying moths darted into the light. In the lamp shadows, Xu Yin could see the moths struggling before the death. Within several seconds, they turned into a curl of smoke.
Xu Yin flew to the roof,and Xu Xi followed him closely. On the roof, the two clung to the eaves. Xu Yin carefully uncovered the tiles and could see a person’s back in the room. Xu Yin poked his head out to find that the person kept talking while Di Qing responded nothing. Perhaps what Zhou Yi said did not interest Di Qing until he ntioned Xu Linghe. It was true that without the identity of the Hall Master, Zhou Yi was worthless in Di Qing’s eyes. Di Qing laughed at him inwardly.
“Wanting the position of the Kunlun’s Master? What do you have to exchange with ?”
“Your Majesty, burn the bridge after crossing it? In the beginning, it was Chidi himself who begged !”
“Zhou Yi, what value do you have now? Besides, it is your Kunlun’s innernal matter.”
“To trade with the Heavenly Book. Your Majesty, what do you think?” Zhou Yi stared at Di Qing, hoping to evoke Di Qing’s desire. Although the Majesty in the human world surrendered Chidi, the ambition hidden in his bone could not be covered up. Zhou Yi ca there for help. Next month, Shenzong would announce to the three realms, and then, Xu Linghe’s na would be engraved on the divine pillars. In other words, even if Zhou Yi grabbed the Kunlun’s Feather, he was unable to be the God of Kunlun. Therefore, Zhou Yi was so anxious that he must lead Di Qing to Kunlun to help him get the position of Sect Master.
“Can you get the Heavenly Book?” Di Qing showed contempt at Zhou Yi’s ability. It was hard to find a person in the three realms who was able to fight against Jiang Wuyou. Even Chidi, who was mighty enough, was defeated by the woman within a movent. So as for Zhou Yi, who just had third-class cultivation, it was an idiotic dream to recapture the Heavenly Book.
“Your Majesty, I ca here with full preparation. The Heavenly Book will belog to sooner or later. I have known clearly that Jiang Wuyou’s mother and younger sister are living in the capital.”
It occured to Di Qing that there was still Madam Hou Qing in the Joy Hall. How could he forget this person? If he could find Jiang Wuyou’s mother out, everything would be solved easily. At that ti, the three realms would under control, and even high-hearted Xu Linghe would kneel down under his feet. How wonderful it would be! However, Di Qing would not let his plan known by others. If the Mount Da Huang knew it, the Qi Kingdom would be trampled without doubt. Di Qing appeared rather calm, which surprised Zhou Yi. What was wrong with the Human Sovereign? Didn’t he want the Heavenly Book? No matter how persuasively Zhou Yi elaborated with his glib tongue, Di Qing would not be imposed upon. In the sneak-attack last ti, Di Qing almost lost his life, so he would not take reckless action this ti. What’s more, Shenzong’s Suspending Heavenly Mirror was so aweso, as well as Po Xi, the Goddess of Rain. Di Qing thought he’d better keep away from them. Seeing there was no hope, Zhou Yi knew that Di Qing had made up his mind. If he failed to take revenge for Zhou Jing, Zhou Yi thought he could not face his younger brother. The more Zhou Jing thought, the sadder he beca. His brother could not die in vain. Of course, could not! With the thought, Zhou Yi knelt on his knees in front of Di Qing. Zhou Yi did sign himself over, only hoping that Di Qing could agree with his request. Di Qing hated being threatened and doing so money-lost trade. If he agreed with Zhou Yi, he might die faster. In the end, Di Qing decided to go to the Mount Da Huang.
The two ca out of the palace gate and headed to the west. Xu Yin left there as well. Looking at the direction in which Di Qing had left, Xu Xi was worried about their third brother. Zhou Yi’s words also disturbed Xu Yin’s mind, so Xu Yin decided to go to Kunlun right away so that his third brother could make so preparation. As for the Heavenly Book, Xu Yin did know nothing about it. But since it could be used as an exchanging chip, it must be sothing valuable.
Xu Yin asked his younger brother to stay in the palace to keep an eye on the movent in the Eastern Palace. To save ti, Xu Yin bought a fleet horse and spent three days and nights arriving at the destination. The Mount Kunlun towered up into the clouds in front. Xu Yin got off the horse and moved forward. The horse fled away the mont it arrived at Si Shui. It seed that the horse also knew how formidable Si Shui was. Xu Yin had no choice but to yell at the top of his voice. But no matter how hard he shouted, there was no response. Did he have to stumble through Si Shui?
“Why are you making noise here?”
Xu Yin was overco with unexpected joy. But with more looks, he was disappointed, because what greeted to him was an insect.
“Would you be kind to report that Xu Yin coming from the human world co to see Sect Master Xu for sothing?”
Upon hearing the man want to see the Sect Master, Little Lingchong could not help looking the person up and down. Judging from the appearance, he did co from the human world.
“Why do you want to see the Sect Master?”
Little Lingchong lowered its voice to sound imposing. But Xu Yin would not tell Little Lingchong why he ca there and remained silent as looking the clouds in the distance. In Little Lingchong’s eyes, he behaved rather arrogantly and disdainfully, which irritated it. So it opened its mouth and blew out a big bubble to enwrap Xu Yin. Then, it flew up to the branches and sneered. This was a warning, because the mortal dared to look down upon him. Xu Yin did not expect that Little Lingchong had a fierce temper.
“I am your Sect Master’s elder brother. I have sothing important to tell him.”
Upon hearing he was the Sect Master’s brother, Little Lingchong thickened the bubble and kicked it into the Si Shui with its paw. Xu Yin thought he would die this ti. But when the bubble floated on the surface of the lake, Xu Yin realized that the big bubble, like a boat, looked thin but solid. When the bubble ferried over Si Shui, Xu Yin climbed onto the shore and ascended along the mountain roads. Little Lingchong flipped its wings. For mortals, Kunlun was rather precipitous where a narrow winding trail bristled with thorns, leaving so cuts on Xu Yin’s legs. Little Lingchong was too tired to breathe, its paws clenching the branches and unwilling to leave. Xu Yin did not care about Little Lingchong at all, only hoping he could arrive at Ao Ze as soon as possible to warn his third younger brother to make so precautions. When arriving at the peak, Little Lingchong sat down heavily, as if all its limbs had been out of joint. Xu Yin trotted all the way, leaving Little Lingchong far behind. Arriving at Ao Ze, Xu Yin saw disciples practicing marcial arts outside the Hall. He was so sly that he ca to greet the Kunlun’s disciples. Little Lingchong fell on Chengyi’s shoulder, and his paw pointed to Xu Yin. After hearing Little Lingchong’s words, Chengyi knew the person’s intention.
“Junior Sister Ruoshui, this person wants to see Sect Master. Go to report it.”
Liu Ruoshui flew to Ao Ze. The mont Xu Linghe ca to the gate of the Hall, Xu Yin called him “third brother” intimately. Chengyi and Liu Ruoshui thought about what had happened in the Rewards and Punishents Hall. How could this person dare to co since he once frad up the Sect Master?
“Elder Brother.”
The atmosphere was a bit awkward.
“Youngest brother, I co from the Qi Palace.”
Xu Linghe knew his elder brother’s intention, so he led his brother to the study room. Chengyi wanted to follow them.
“Junior Brother, you need to cultivate Qi more.”
“Senior Brother, you need to be careful. That person is quite bad.”
Thinking about what Xu Yin had done to Senior Brother, Chengyi cast a glare at Xu Yin. Even if Xu Yin was Senior Brother’s elder brother, Chengyi still had a grudge for him. Whosoever hurt Senior Brother was Chengyi’s enemy.
“Junior Brother, you might as well withdraw.”
Xu Linghe wanted to be lenient with his elder brother. After all, they were all the father’s sons, and Xu Linghe only had two elder brothers in Xu family. The eldest brother ca here certainly for sothing important. After entering the room, Xu Yin stood stiffly.
“Linghe, you’ve forgiven . I feel too shad to stand in front of you.”
“Eldest Brother, you’are always my brother.”
The word “brother” made Xu Yin’s eyes dampen with tears. For so many years, it was the first ti the third younger brother took him as a family mber. A warm current ran through his heart. When it welled up, his nose twitched. Afraid of being laughed at, Xu Yin turned around so that Xu Linghe would not see his embarrassnt.
“Zhou Yi of your Rewards and Punishnt Hall ca to see Di Qing.”
“How did you know that?”
“After being plotted by Di Qing, I changed my face and sneaked into the Qi Palace. You should not bear the father’s revenge alone. It should be taken among three of us.”
“Seeing the elder brothers’ changes, our father can feel relieved.”
“Linghe, Zhou Yi ca to the Mount Da Huang again. He said that he will seize the position of the Sect Master at the ceremony. You need to be careful.”
“As for Zhou Yi, Grandmaster has been on guard.”
“And for the Heavenly Book, you should be on guard as well. There is nothing I can do for you, but just sothing in my strength.”
Xu Yin was quite upset and blad himself for lacking Spirit Power and being unable to help his third brother.
“Nothing is more important than the family union. Brother, let take you to see Xiao Douya, your nephew.”
“You have a son?”
Xu Yin did not expect that his youngest brother had a child. Xu Yin thought about his father. It would be good if his father had been alive. The two ca out of the door and headed to Ao Ze. Seeing the Senior Brother leaving for Ao Ze, Chengyi followed him. Because Xu Yin was a mortal, Xu Linghe displayed magic arts to help him fly on the clouds. But Xu Yin felt his head heavy and his feet light. Chengyi laughed at Xu Yin with a bad attitude to the person who once hurt the Senior Brother. After landing from the clouds, Xu Yin saw a little kid dressed in Kunlun’s heavenly silk robe whose soft hair lay down on the arms. The little child ran all the way and then held the youngest brother’s hands tightly. His innocent laugthers filled Ao Ze rrily.
“Xiao Douya, co to see your eldest uncle.”
Xu Linghe put down his child. Xiao Douya was very young but smart. It was not so easy to be Xiao Douya’s eldest uncle. Being the Sect Master’s beloved son, it was hardly justifiable not to grasp so martial arts. So Xiao Douya condensed his Spirit Power and swept toward his eldest uncle. Xu Yin was a mortal, and had never seen that scene before. He was forced to fall down on his back with legs pointing up. Watching Xiao Douya’s trick, Chengyi applauded for him inwardly. With a surprised expression, Xiao Douya looked at his hands unbelievably.
“Dad, the eldest uncle is fake, right? He is not as strong as .”
Xu Yin picked himself up from the ground, his face turning scarlet and then pale. It seed that he also needed to cultivate so Spirit Power and never let his nephew tease him any more.
