Chapter 2230 - 2230 Answer

2230 Answer

“Miss Shangguan?” A voice suddenly interrupted the two of them.

Chu Liuyue turned around and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw who it was. “Master Ming, why are you here?”

Ming Shu was standing at the door, looking at the two people in the courtyard.

Hearing Chu Liuyue’s question, he hurriedly smiled and said, “I went to where you lived just now, but you weren’t there. I heard that you were here, so I rushed over.”

Xiao Ran looked at Ming Shu and then at Chu Liuyue, revealing a meaningful expression.

Ming Shu was from Zhen Bao Pavilion and was usually very polite. However, his att.i.tude toward Chu Liuyue seemed to be different.

There was a hint of caution and sincerity in his politeness.

How could Chu Liuyue be treated so seriously by him?

“Why are you looking for me?” Chu Liuyue was also a little puzzled.

“Oh, it’s like this. I heard that you went to the lightning pool previously and even stayed in the depths of the lightning pool for a long time. Zhen Bao Pavilion wanted to give you a gift to congratulate you.”

With that, Ming Shu took out a few jade boxes of different sizes. “These are all for you. Do you like them?”

Chu Liuyue: “…”

It isn’t surprising that the people from Zhen Bao Pavilion know about this. But why is there a gift?

Chu Liuyue hesitated for a moment before saying, “This… you’re too polite. Actually, it was also an accident that I went to the lightning pool. You should take these things back.”

Ming Shu’s eyes twitched. It wasn’t easy for me to find a reason to send these things over! How could I bring it back?

He coughed. “Could it be that Miss Shangguan doesn’t like these? Then, you can follow me to Zhen Bao Pavilion and choose them yourself.”

Chu Liuyue: “…”

Seeing that Ming Shu didn’t seem to be joking and looked sincere and enthusiastic, Chu Liuyue curled her fingers and could only accept the item. “Then… thank you.”

Ming Shu heaved a sigh of relief.

After completing the mission, his mood instantly became much better, and even the smile on his face became much more relaxed and bright. “It’s just a small gift. As long as you like it, there’s no need to thank me. Besides, it’s something that no one in Fantasy Divine Palace has been able to do for so many years. You did it the moment you came. You can afford this gift!”

These words came from Ming Shu’s heart.

When he heard that Chu Liuyue actually went straight to the deepest part of the lightning pool for the first time, he was also shocked for a long time. He knew that this person was powerful, but he didn’t expect her to be so powerful!

Chu Liuyue was caught between laughter and tears.

She opened the box and was slightly shocked.

These were all top-notch medicinal herbs and were worth a lot. Unexpectedly, Ming Shu sent it over directly…

“Lord Ming, it’s rare for you to leave Zhen Bao Pavilion.” Xiao Ran walked over and glanced at Chu Liuyue with a faint smile. “Young lady, I didn’t expect you to be so close to Lord Ming?”

The gift itself was a little inexplicable, and Ming Shu had actually come personally. There weren’t many people in the entire Fantasy Divine Palace who had such treatment.

Ming Shu’s eyelids twitched violently. Young lady? This person is really bold!

He laughed. “Miss Shangguan is now a member of our Zhen Bao Pavilion. Naturally, she’s different from others!”

“What does that mean?” Xiao Ran was dazed. How long had this little girl been in Fantasy Divine Palace? How did she become related to Zhen Bao Pavilion?

“Xiao Ran, you might not know this, but our Zhen Bao Pavilion has recently invited Miss Shangguan to help replicate the Xuan formations!” Ming Shu said with a smile.

“What?!” Xiao Ran was really shocked!

He suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Chu Liuyue in disbelief. “You, you—”

He knew how strict Zhen Bao Pavilion was in this aspect. This was because he had already thought of this back then. Unfortunately, he was still a little off and didn’t succeed.

How could he not be shocked when he heard Ming Shu’s words?

Not many people knew about this.

On the one hand, the matter had just been confirmed. On the other hand, Zhen Bao Pavilion and Chu Liuyue didn’t publicize this matter.

Apart from meeting Mu Yafeng that day and letting her know, most of the others in the Fantasy Divine Palace knew nothing about it. Therefore, even someone as well-informed as Xiao Ran was unaware of this.

There seemed to be stars flickering in Chu Liuyue’s black jade-like eyes. She chuckled and said, “This is the answer to the question you just asked.”

Xiao Ran gasped. So that’s it!

I knew it. According to Chu Liuyue’s current Great King Xuan Master level, there was no reason for her to have seen the Sky Demon Xuan formation. However, she seemed to be very familiar with it—it was really strange. Now, there is finally an answer to this question.

“…I really didn’t expect you to do such a big thing silently.” After the initial shock, Xiao Ran quickly chose to accept it.

He knew very well how talented Chu Liuyue was. Although she was only a Great King Xuan Master now, the fact that Zhen Bao Pavilion was willing to make such a choice was enough to show how much they valued and thought highly of her.

Even if she didn’t have a bloodline totem.

Xiao Ran looked at Chu Liuyue with a complicated expression. “So you’ve seen the Li Fire Xuan Map?”

Chu Liuyue smiled faintly and nodded. “Just for a while.”

“The Sky Demon Xuan formation should be at the bottom, right?” Xiao Ran asked.

Chu Liuyue paused. “Yes. I skimmed it earlier and haven’t had time to study it carefully.”

Xiao Ran’s eyes were filled with envy. “All these years, Zhen Bao Pavilion has only chosen you.”

If this news got out, her doorstep would probably be broken through. More importantly, this meant that she would have the support of Zhen Bao Pavilion in the future!

Those who looked down on her previously and even mocked her would have to think twice in the future.

Ming Shu completed the mission and felt relieved. “I hope Miss Shangguan has time to visit Zhen Bao Pavilion more often.”

Chu Liuyue smiled and nodded. “You’re too kind. It’s only right.”

Only then did Ming Shu leave.

After he left, Xiao Ran looked at Chu Liuyue again. “Tsk. I wonder what expression those people will have when they find out about this?”

Chu Liuyue raised her eyebrows slightly. “What they think is their business. It has nothing to do with me.”

Xiao Ran clicked his tongue. “Young lady, you’re so young, but you’re so insightful. It’s rare!”

Chu Liuyue put away the jade boxes and changed the topic. “Didn’t you say before that I could ask you if there’s anything I don’t understand?”

Xiao Ran looked vigilant. “You want to compare Xuan formations with me? But with your current status, you can’t do this casually, right?”

Ordinary Xuan formations were fine, but those top-notch Xuan formations were extremely precious. If she made a move, she would inevitably leak some things.

From the moment Zhen Bao Pavilion chose her, she had been restricted in this aspect.

Chu Liuyue smiled and shook her head. “That’s not it. I still understand the rules of Zhen Bao Pavilion. What I want to ask is something else: You’ve been in Fantasy Divine Palace for many years. Have you seen the red-gold heavenly phoenix?”
