Chapter 223 One dares to ask and one dares to agree
The bamboo leaves are bustling around, blocking the scorching sun, and their mottled reflections are reflected on the water, adding a touch of coolness to the midsummer.
There were three figures sitting in the pavilion.
"It's like this. The top ten in the year-end assessment will have the opportunity to stay in Xiaoyao Sword Sect and become inner disciples. There are also many disciples from various sects at this sword cultivator gathering. The probability of them choosing to stay is not high, so I still have a good chance."
If one is gifted and extremely outstanding, there is even a chance to become a direct disciple of an elder.
Yue Han's eyes were calm, he took a sip of tea, and calmly expressed his thoughts.
"So, brother wants to stay and become a disciple of the sect?" Yue Ling frowned slightly, but did not refute his brother's ideal. She was just thinking about something seriously.
"That's right, but don't worry, A Ling..." Yue Han said seriously: "If you have any trouble in the palace, whether you contact me or contact my brother, we will rush back immediately."
"Is that so..." Yue Ling's eyes lit up, and she nodded thoughtfully and said, "Okay, this way I won't have two more brothers for no reason."
"Brother, just rest assured and practice here. I will go and talk to the Queen Mother on your behalf."
Yue Han, the dullard, rarely showed a hint of affection towards his sister: "What do you mean by having two more brothers for no reason? It's as if your brothers are useless."
"As long as you help me when it's critical, you are still my good brother." Yue Ling stretched and took a deep breath.
"I think you can rest assured. Among the three of us brothers and sisters, you are the best at learning the royal secret techniques." Yue Han showed a glimmer of hope for his sister.
"What about others? Aren't all my other brothers and sisters good at studying?" Yue Ling looked at her brother with a hint of resentment: "Who told me that I have two brothers who are not interested in this? If I don't go, who will?"
Yue Han smiled helplessly and quickly poured a cup of tea for his sister.
"However, I have the help of Zen Beans during this period, which is barely enough." Yue Ling glanced at Ling Chan who was sitting next to him. He originally had one hand on his chest and the other hand holding the rosary and silently reciting. When he heard Yue Ling mention him, he opened his eyes.
"Amitabha, the competition among the princesses and princes is too fierce. The imperial master should pay attention to the world's major events, uphold fairness and justice, and not interfere too much."
"Hey!" The siblings Yue Ling and Yue Han stood up almost at the same time, pointed at Ling Chan and said, "That's not what you said before."
Ling Chan turned his head slightly, as if no one could break his calmness. "Master's orders are above me. Even if I want to be partial, I dare not show it openly."
"If you think there are not enough helpers, Princess can go and find some on your own." Ling Chan glanced vaguely towards the deep path.
"As for helpers..." Yue Ling poked her head in annoyance, "It's hard to find strong ones, and I don't know how to get along with those who are too strong."
"It would be nice if there was someone who was good-tempered and could stay with me all the time..."
"You bald guy, are you going to ignore the friendship we grew up together and let A Ling face all the intrigues in the palace alone?" Yue Han stood up and glared at Ling Chan.
Ling Chan sighed and replied in a sincere tone, "As her own brother, you don't care about her, so please don't judge me like this."
Yue Han stood up angrily and rushed towards Ling Chan. Yue Ling was busy thinking about things, as if he was used to the fight behind him.
At this moment, a mixed-haired wolf fell out from the corner of the only path leading to the pavilion. It seemed that it ran too fast and tripped over a stone. It rolled twice on the ground and stopped only after using its face to brake.
"Mo Xuan, are you sure this is the place?" A female voice came from behind, and a graceful figure in white approached through the bamboo forest.
When Yue Ling heard the voice, her eyes lit up, but then she thought of something and became listless again:
"The sect's disciples are very busy, so how can they have time to go back with me?"
Chu Yu followed Mo Xuan to find Yue Ling's whereabouts. Hearing the sound of fighting coming from the corner, he couldn't help but stick his head out.
A figure in black robes was wrestling with a monk in a red cassock wearing a Vimalakirti crown, while Yue Ling was staring in his direction with a numb and dull expression on his face.
"What... is wrong with you?" Chu Yu asked in surprise.
"Yuyu, are you willing to go back with me and play for two days?"
Yue Ling asked tentatively, without any hope.
"Okay."
Chu Yu agreed without any hesitation, decisively.
Not only Yue Ling, but Yue Han also stopped what he was doing and opened his eyes wide in shock when he heard the answer.
One dares to ask, the other dares to answer.
"really?"
"Really, A Ling, to be honest, I came here to ask you a favor." Chu Yu swiftly pulled the little wolf up from the ground and held him in his arms.
"Okay, that's all okay." Yue Ling stood up, unable to suppress a smile on her face.
"Is that really easy? I'm afraid my request will make things difficult for you." Chu Yu felt a little embarrassed when he saw that the other party was so straightforward.
Yue Ling's aura suddenly changed, showing her generosity as a princess: "Don't worry, nothing is difficult for me."
"I need a flowering Hengyouzi."
"Ah?" Yue Ling and Yue Han were both shocked, while Ling Chan looked at Chu Yu deeply with his eyebrows raised.
"Gentlemen, I know the special significance of this item to the royal family, so I don't want to deceive you. I really need it urgently."
"That is a special supply for the royal family. Even we can't use such precious things on a normal basis. Miss Chu, you..." Yue Han wanted to ask her if her soul was damaged, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Yue Ling who hit him on the head.
Yue Ling straightened her expression. After all, this was not a small matter. But she still spoke very righteously: "Even members of our royal family cannot touch this thing casually. Miss Chu, if you need it, I can help you find a way."
"We can either get it openly or find another way." Yue Ling was a completely different person at this moment, with her aura fully open. She seemed to have already thought of an idea:
"Miss Chu, what do you want?"
"You are so righteous, and you are bound by the royal rules. I will not make it too difficult for you." Chu Yu said calmly:
"Princess Yue Ling, can you please tell me first, how can I, an outsider, get it openly?"
Seeing Chu Yu's reaction, Yue Ling raised a smile and said, "Miss Chu Yu, you really suit my taste."
"If you want to do it openly, you should come back to Yunhuanzhou with me first. I will explain it to you in detail later. This plant does not bloom easily, and even if it blooms, it will only last for an hour before withering. If you need flowers, it is best to wait with me in the palace."
"If we can't get it fair and square, that's fine. I'll find a way to get you one."
"Just use some... um, little tricks." Yue Ling's eyes lit up, and it seemed that no matter how the situation developed, she was determined to get a plant of Hengyouzi.
"Princess Yue Ling, thank you so much." Chu Yu bowed and expressed his gratitude. Yue Ling agreed so readily, which was really very loyal to him.
"Don't thank me. Maybe I will have to thank you in the future." Yue Ling rolled her eyes and asked tentatively, "When can Miss Chu go back with me?"
"I haven't been in Xiaoyao Sword Sect for three months yet, so I'll need a few days to deal with the chores."
"Will three days be enough?"
"enough"
"Yuyu, three days later, Zen Douzi and I will be waiting for you outside Jiandu City." Yue Ling readily made an appointment with Chu Yu.
Chu Yu originally thought that it would take some effort to negotiate, but he didn't expect things to go so smoothly. Yue Ling also didn't expect Chu Yu to agree so readily.
The two girls made an agreement in just a few words. Yue Han and Ling Chan seemed to have not reacted yet, and the way he was holding Ling Chan's robe had not changed.
"What are you two doing..." Why did Chu Yu feel like every time he saw Ling Chan, someone couldn't help but beat him up.
“Nothing…” Yue Han immediately let go of Ling Chan.
Lingchan sat up leisurely and straightened his clothes.
"Since there is nothing else, see you in three days." Chu Yu said goodbye with a smile.
Yue Ling smiled and waved. After Chu Yu's figure disappeared, she turned around and looked at the two men proudly.
"You are useless at the critical moment."
"But I am generous and don't care."
She also left the pavilion happily.
……
Chu Yu returned to the disciples' residence at Xuanxia Mountain and saw a slender figure in red leaning against the door looking at her.
"Did you escape death and come back?" Wang Sheng looked at Chu Yu carefully. He was no longer surprised by her sudden increase in aura.
"I guess so." Chu Yu did not deny it.
"I am increasingly unable to understand your realm." Wang Sheng smiled helplessly as he spoke, stretched himself, and turned around to walk into the yard in a nonchalant manner.
Chu Yu was about to tell him something: "I'm leaving in three days."
"It's up to you." Wang Sheng said without even turning his head.
"Disciples, you and Ao Zheng, please take care of him."
"Okay, just don't die outside by yourself." Wang Sheng slammed the door of his room.
In just a moment, the barrier he cultivated was set up.
"This fellow is just the same as always..."
Chu Yu shook his head and prepared to go back to the house to pack up. He wanted to deal with some things in the next few days and say goodbye to Li Heng and others.
Chu Yu was somewhat looking forward to visiting the most powerful royal territory in Yunhuanzhou.
I wonder what the royal children of Jiuzhou will look like?
