1988 Contact

As soon as he finished speaking, familiar footsteps came from outside.

Rong Xiu’s glabella moved slightly, and an exquisite and slender figure came into view.

It was Chu Liuyue.

Yu Mo turned around and bowed. “Greetings, Princess Consort.”

Chu Liuyue originally had her head slightly lowered as if she were thinking about something. When she heard the voice, she looked up.

Rong Xiu had already stood up and walked over. “What are you thinking about? Why are you so lost in thought?”

As he spoke, he saw a faint red mark on her hand from the corner of his eye, as if something had pressed down hard on it.

A trace of dark-red blood was about to seep out.

His eyes narrowed slightly. “What’s going on?”

Chu Liuyue came back to her senses and shook her head. “I’m fine. It’s just a small injury.”

To her, this wasn’t even considered an injury.

Rong Xiu placed his fingers on her wrist and checked. After confirming that she had only suffered a superficial injury and wasn’t seriously injured, his expression softened a little.

However, his heart still ached.

He pulled Chu Liuyue to the rattan chair and made her sit down. He then took out medicine and personally applied it on her hand before ma.s.saging it meticulously.

There was a faint intermediate medicinal fragrance mixed with a hint of peach blossom fragrance.

A cold feeling washed over, and the previous burning pain instantly decreased a lot.

Chu Liuyue originally didn’t care about this injury, but when she saw Rong Xiu lowering his head slightly to help her apply the medicine, she felt very at ease.

She originally wanted to do it herself, but after thinking about it, she decided to let Rong Xiu do it.

“Your Highness, Princess Consort, I’ll take my leave first.” Yu Mo was already used to this kind of scene.

Rong Xiu acknowledged it and let him go.

Soon, only the two of them were left in the courtyard.

Chu Liuyue turned her head slightly and stared at Rong Xiu for a while.

His expression was serious, and his actions were gentle.

In the G.o.d Residence Realm, Rong Xiu was renowned, and many people were terrified and in awe of him—even Nan Yifan and Yi Wentao didn’t dare to offend him. However, such a person was now by her side. Just because her hand was injured, he patiently and meticulously helped her apply the medicine.

It seemed that there was nothing more important than this in the world.

There seemed to be waves surging in her heart. Finally, she couldn’t help but get up and kiss his face. “Hubby is the best!”

A dragonfly touched the water and quickly retreated.

Rong Xiu looked up and raised his brows slightly. “Don’t think that you won’t be able to explain just because of this.”

Ever since Chu Liuyue broke through, she rarely got injured. It was obviously not normal for such a mark to be left on her hand. Moreover, it was in Peach Blossom Dock—her own territory.

Chu Liuyue exhaled and lay back on the recliner. “It’s all because of that realm gate.”

Rong Xiu suddenly stopped in his actions. “Troublesome?”

Actually, he had already expected this to have something to do with Peach Blossom Dock.

He knew that Chu Liuyue had gone to the realm gate with Cen Yi and the rest. However, he didn’t expect her to get injured.

Chu Liuyue nodded. “I don’t know who hid a Xuan formation in that realm gate. Moreover, that Xuan formation is extremely powerful and has already affected the entire realm gate. Now, that realm gate can no longer be entered or left normally.”

She shrugged, both annoyed and amused. “There’s no need to send someone to guard it. Even a true G.o.d might not be able to escape safely.”

As she spoke, she raised her hand. “That’s what hurt this hand.”

After hearing Lin Zhifei’s guess, she felt that it made sense.

In order to figure out what was going on, she decided to give it a try herself. However, just as this hand reached into the realm gate, an extremely powerful force seemed to surge over from the surroundings!

She had a bad feeling and immediately pulled her hand out without hesitation. Even so, she was still slightly injured.

“Fortunately, I dodged quickly. Otherwise…”

Rong Xiu knitted his brows slightly.

One had to know that even though Chu Liuyue was only at the true G.o.d realm, she had already used the G.o.d-Destroying Tribulation to refine her Holy Body.

Her current Holy Body could even fight a legendary warrior! Wasn’t Yi Wentao the best example?

From the looks of it, the realm gate has indeed become very dangerous. Rong Xiu paused for a while. “I’ll go with you tomorrow.”

Chu Liuyue nodded.

A few petals fluttered down.

Chu Liuyue looked up.

The peach blossoms on the tree were blooming.

Suddenly, something landed on her glabella, and it turned cold.

Chu Liuyue was dazed. “Is it snowing?”

Rong Xiu also looked up at the sky.

The originally blue sky had unknowingly turned dark gray. Crystal-clear snowflakes were slowly falling.

He retracted his gaze and bent down to carry her horizontally.

…

The snow in Peach Blossom Dock came very suddenly. But for the people who had stayed in Peach Blossom Dock for a long time, this wasn’t a surprise.

Over the years, the climate of Peach Blossom Dock had been very varied. Most people were already used to it.

In the corridor in front of the door, San San was holding his hands and walking forward leisurely. As he walked, he even hummed a little tune.

His small eyes narrowed as he smiled, as if he was in a good mood.

Yu Jiu and s.h.i.+ Fang happened to b.u.mp into him. From afar, they saw San San looking happy.

Yu Jiu greeted him. “Third Brother, what happened that made you so happy?”

San San smiled and replied, “Nothing, nothing!”

Yu Jiu and the other man looked at each other. There is only one explanation for his happiness.

“It looks like Third Brother has struck it rich again?” Yu Jiu teased.

San San crossed his arms and smiled happily. “No, no. It’s all thanks to Master! I’m just going to tell Master the good news.”

s.h.i.+ Fang suddenly thought of something. “Looks like… someone has already started contacting Third Brother?”

San San raised his finger and blinked. “Shh—this matter hasn’t been completely settled yet. It’s not too late to be happy after Master slaps the board!”

Although he said that, the smile on his face was already overflowing.

After saying that, he hurriedly bade farewell to the two of them and headed inside.

Yu Jiu hugged his sword with both hands and looked back and forth between San San and s.h.i.+ Fang. “s.h.i.+ Fang, you seem to know something?”

s.h.i.+ Fang didn’t mind and said, “Actually, it’s not a big deal. It’s just that Third Brother plans to open his business outside.”

Yu Jiu immediately understood.

It turned out that San San wanted to expand his business. If he did this, it meant that he would have a greater profit.

No wonder he was so happy.

“It’s normal for Third Brother to do this, but… Open a store outside? Where?”

s.h.i.+ Fang looked at him suspiciously. “How would I know?”

Yu Jiu: “…”

I knew I couldn’t ask him about this kind of thing…

…

When San San arrived at the inner courtyard, Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu were sitting under the roof, admiring the snow.

“Master, Your Highness.” San San tried his best to control the expression on his face before stepping forward.

Chu Liuyue turned to look at him and raised her brows. “Looks like a lot of people have been contacting you recently, right?”
