Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 177: Arrives in the Xuan Empire
"Spirit Palace. What are they doing in the Xuan Empire?" murmured Zhang Yu while gripping the belt in his hand.
From boarding the ship to entering the room, Zhang Yu could not stop thinking about the reason for the Spirit Palace to come to the Xuan Empire.
Besides the Spirit Palace was a power group that came from the Long Empire, the Spirit Palace was also known as a place where cultivators used negative energies. This definitely made Zhang Yu worried.
Zhang Yu kept the belt back and then moved out of place while carefully removing his robe.
As soon as Zhang Yu put his robe on the bed, it appeared that Sun was writhing in his sleep.
"I heard from mom, she was already like this after cultivating last time with me. I don't know why he slept so long. Is there something wrong with her condition?" zhang Yu asked Long Shen.
Long Shen descended from Zhang Yu's shoulder to walk over Sun's sleeping body.
"After I checked it he looked fine. But it's weird to see him fall asleep like a dead monkey."
"Eh ... You said he was like this after cultivating?"
"Right," Zhang Yu nodded. Trying to recall that time as he gave the resource crystal.
Because that time was busy absorbing the potion and finishing it early. Zhang Yu immediately left without seeing Sun. Even before entering the ancestral altar he had not had time to see it.
"Yes. Seems right. He's now in an evolutionary stage."
Hearing this speech Zhang Yu's face shriveled. He had heard something like this. But the cases that occur are very rare and not all spiritual animals experience it.
"Nobody knows how long evolution took. But it looks like he's even just starting his stage" Long Shen said.
Zhang Yu nodded his head. Then he took his robe before putting it back on. "I'm out for a minute, you're here to accompany Sun."
Seeing the dragon god just silently still above Sun's body, Zhang Yu thought that in response. He went out to relax on the front deck like he used to.
Because the ship also just stopped at the port. It takes at least an hour before departure. Zhang Yu stood up while enjoying the expanse of water. He was there long enough and just kept quiet.
At the same time someone came to him.
"It looks like we're a match" he said hello.
Slowly Zhang Yu pulled his face to the side. He was sure it was not the voice of Xuan Yin or his mother. So when anyone knew him it really made him curious.
"Miss Liu, why are you on this ship?" zhang Yu asked after getting to know the figure of the woman.
Liu Mengqi sighed then placed his hand on the guardrail of the ship. "Don't call me that. Didn't we ever get too familiar? Have you forgotten me for two years?" ask him by putting on a pouting face.
Zhang Yu smiled wryly. "I didn't forget. But ...."
"Zhang Yu!"
Before Zhang Yu finished his sentence, Xuan Yin came with Xiao Mei.
From the very beginning of his arrival, Xuan Yin continued to pay attention to Liu Mengqi and looked at him probingly.
Zhang Yu smelled signs of calamity. So in order to prevent her he had to anticipate her immediately.
"Mother, Yin'er, introduce her to my acquaintance, Liu Mengqi."
Xiao Mei and Xuan Yin nodded their heads. But their eyes still looked doubtful and suspicious.
"Zhang Yu is the hero of the Saturn trading group after winning the first place of the heaven fight. Because of the hard work Saturn is now very advanced and experiencing rapid development. I admire him so much and love being friends with him."
Hearing Liu Mengqi's sentence, Xiao Mei and Xuan Yin threw eye contact at each other. They introduced themselves while greeting him.
"By the way, why did Miss Liu want to go to the Xuan Empire? Is that Saturn's goal or is it Miss Liu herself?" xuan Yin asked curiously.
Zhang Yu listened as Xuan Yin asked this question. He was also curious as to why Liu Mengqi wanted to go to the Xuan Empire.
"I didn't go alone. I went with some elders from Saturn. We traveled towards the Xuan Empire for intending to open a branch there."
Zhang Yu squinted his eyes. While Xuan Yin who heard him suddenly became enthusiastic.
"really? Saturn is a big trading group. If opening a branch in the Xuan Empire could definitely help the growth of the territory."
"Haha ... It's still a plan. There are still too many things to be prepared to make it happen," Liu Mengqi said.
By that time the number of passengers had exceeded the limit. The crew immediately raised the connecting board and unfurled the sail. The journey back began. From that day on Zhang Yu and the others were on board four days and three nights.
The afternoon of the fourth day they had reached the territory of Heishan City, Xuan Empire.
Zhang Yu descended quickly while carrying Sun inside the pocket of his robe. Not to miss Xuan Yin and Xiao Mei who also looked impatient.
"Miss Liu, where are you going now?" asked Xuan Yin.
"I'm going to the capital, Xue He City. Because after all the most suitable place to open a branch is of course the most populous city."
Xuan Yin nodded. When he heard about Xue He City he somehow couldn't help but think about his father, mother and siblings.
"I can escort you back to Xue He City if you ...."
Before Zhang Yu finished his sentence, Xuan Yin immediately shook his head. "You should escort Aunt back to Qian Gu City. But I miss my family too much. So I'm gonna go back to the palace myself before I look for you."
Zhang Yu glanced at his mother at a glance then nodded resignedly. "alright. You have to be careful."
"Want to go to Xue He City as well? What if we go with our group?" Liu Mengqi waved from a distance. He and a few elders from Saturn were already ready to set out for Xue He City.
Xuan Yin glanced at him a glance before turning to Zhang Yu. "I'll go with Miss Liu's entourage. So you don't have to worry about me."
"After all have you forgotten who I am? I am the seventh prince, a prince known for genius and bravery!" he added.
Zhang Yu sighed then shook his head helplessly. "Alright, you have to be careful."
Xuan Yin nodded. After being silent and just staring fixedly at Zhang Yu, he suddenly pushed his face to kiss Zhang Yu's lips without giving him a chance to react.
"..."
Zhang Yu gasped in surprise. Xuan Yin had just escaped after giving a surprise attack.
For the second time Zhang Yu shook his head helplessly. Xuan Yin did not even look back when he joined the Saturn troupe. Perhaps he was too embarrassed to stare at Zhang Yu after committing a heist against him.
Liu Mengqi. For some short time he noticed Zhang Yu and Xuan Yin's interaction. In this one moment he saw Zhang Yu who treated Xuan Yin so warmly.
Though Zhang Yu had always been cold and indifferent to women. But he was very different when he was with Xuan Yin.
From this Liu Mengqi realized that Zhang Yu could not not be gentle. But only on a certain figure and for sure it is not him.
