Chapter 1378: Guess
That is the legendary three-eyed eagle clan! Since when was it so easy to talk to them? If he said that they took the red-tailed phoenix into consideration and didn’t touch Chu Yue, then it is fine. Yet, they actually agreed to return s.h.i.+ Rui’er’s fiend… Isn’t that too incredulous?!
Even s.h.i.+ Rui’er was stunned. She disregarded her injured s.h.i.+n and limped over.
The elder with white brows hurriedly supported her from the side, terrified that she would accidentally fall down.
“Chu Yue, are you telling the truth?!” s.h.i.+ Rui’er’s heart beat intensely, and her eyes were overflowing with expectations.
Chu Liuyue raised her brows slightly and snapped her fingers.
Hula!
A legendary three-eyed eagle rapidly flew over!
s.h.i.+ Rui’er instantly looked surprised. This was exactly the one she had an agreement with.
That legendary three-eyed eagle flew above s.h.i.+ Rui’er’s head for a moment and glanced at her apologetically.
Actually, after the agreement was made, s.h.i.+ Rui’er had always treated it very well. If the legendary three-eyed eagle said that it had no feelings for her, it was definitely fake.
But when its ancestors came, it was put in a difficult spot on both sides. On the one hand, it didn’t want s.h.i.+ Rui’er to be injured. On the other hand, it didn’t want to go against its ancestor’s rules, which caused this outcome.
Luckily, everything had pa.s.sed now!
s.h.i.+ Rui’er almost couldn’t believe it, and she couldn’t help asking, “Your… clansmen aren’t going to pursue the matter of us making an agreement?”
That legendary three-eyed eagle nodded and quickly glanced at Chu Liuyue. The ancestor had said it personally, so the others naturally wouldn’t have any opinions—not to mention that Ancestor has also made an agreement with a human…
It quickly returned to s.h.i.+ Rui’er’s body.
s.h.i.+ Rui’er was overjoyed and looked at Chu Liuyue excitedly. “Chu Yue, I really don’t know how to thank you!”
Even though Chu Yue didn’t say much himself, one just has to think to know he definitely put in a lot of effort this time. Even if I don’t know how exactly he convinced the legendary three-eyed eagle clan… This is great!
That legendary three-eyed eagle was given to me by Father, and I have always treasured it. Originally, I thought that I was on a path of no return, but who would’ve thought that there was light at the end of the tunnel!
“Senior Sister, you don’t have to be polite. It was willing to follow you.” Chu Liuyue smiled. “The legendary three-eyed eagles are arrogant but also very loyal and direct. As long as you treat it properly, you don’t have to worry about anything else.”
Does this mean that he has already talked it out with the legendary three-eyed eagle clan?! s.h.i.+ Rui’er was shocked. All the people present are formidable characters in the G.o.d Residence Realm. But even if they went over, they might not be able to convince the legendary three-eyed eagle. After all, this is related to their clan’s reputation and dignity. Yet, Chu Yue did it…
Her heart was suddenly filled with doubts. What ident.i.ty does Chu Yue have? Why does he have such power?!
It wasn’t only s.h.i.+ Rui’er; everyone else present had the same thoughts.
Chu Liuyue disregarded those gazes and turned around.
That purplish-gold bodhi tree stood quietly and didn’t continue growing, but it did not hide either.
The legendary three-eyed eagles that previously appeared had all returned to the tree the moment she appeared. Chu Liuyue convinced them for a long time, so they didn’t respectfully send her out. After all, it wasn’t good if other people saw it.
It was better to be discreet.
Detecting Chu Liuyue’s gaze, all of them looked over with s.h.i.+ning eyes.
Chu Liuyue’s eyelids twitched.
Originally, knowing that Zi Chen had made an agreement with her, they felt rather unbalanced. But after hearing that she saved Zi Chen and even helped it reform its physical body, they were totally convinced by her.
If she hadn’t warned them repeatedly before, they would have pounced on her again.
She coughed, cupped her fists, and said, “Thank you for your understanding, everyone. The future is long. We’ll see each other again next time.”
Shoo!
The many legendary three-eyed eagles answered in unison, and their shrieks no longer had the previous mockery and targeting nature. Instead, there was a hint of reluctance.
The surrounding spectators present had incredulous expressions. This… What exactly did Chu Yue say and do when he went in, allowing the legendary three-eyed eagles to be so polite toward him?
Elder Hua Feng revealed a meaningful gaze. The red-gold heavenly phoenix… is indeed formidable…
“Elder, I suddenly recalled that I left some things in that tomb, so I’m afraid I have to go back and take a look.”
Elder Hua Feng was stumped. “Tomb? What tomb?”
Chu Liuyue paused and explained, “The place where I was locked up previously.”
The surroundings fell silent. Everyone’s attention was immediately attracted.
Hearing Chu Liuyue’s words, quite a few people looked shocked. Tomb? So that place is actually—
“Okay. We’ll go back and take it together.” Elder Hua Feng didn’t want to let Chu Liuyue go by herself again and insisted on following her no matter what.
Chu Liuyue couldn’t argue against him and could only agree in the end.
She walked forward.
Jin Di and the others exchanged glances and knitted their brows.
But before they spoke, Chu Liuyue paused in her tracks and turned around. She raised her brows slightly and said in a seemingly smiling manner, “Oh right, there’s something I forgot to tell everyone. The Heavenly Square Cauldron that previously appeared… is fake. That was just an illusion that the legendary three-eyed eagles conjured up, and it’s still with them. If you don’t believe it, you can go ahead and s.n.a.t.c.h it. Then… we’ll take our leave first.”
Then, she turned around and left in a carefree manner, leaving the crowd behind in a daze.
Is… he saying the truth?
“…That Heavenly Square Cauldron appeared suddenly, and there was no weather phenomenon. Thinking about it now, there does seem to be a problem…”
“I think so too. Previously, that thing was controlled by the legendary three-eyed eagles. This isn’t normal, right?”
“Does Chu Yue really have nothing to do with that Heavenly Square Cauldron…”
Chu Liuyue pretended as if she didn’t hear all those voices behind her.
Anyone who had brains could guess something now. Now, she just wanted to make one thing clear!
“Why does it seem like someone is missing?” Chu Liuyue took a few steps out and suddenly realized that something was amiss.
They surveyed their surroundings, and there was indeed someone missing.
“Where’s Jiang Zhiyuan?” The few elders also found it strange.
“She was still here just now. Where can she go in such a short time?”
s.h.i.+ Rui’er added, “Chu Yue, if I didn’t guess wrongly, she should’ve gone to the place you were at just now.”
Chu Liuyue squinted her eyes slightly.
s.h.i.+ Rui’er paused. “Actually, I knew when she left, but I didn’t stop her. There… shouldn’t be any problem, right?”
“Of course not.” Chu Liuyue’s lips curled up slightly, and she revealed a faint smile. “That place… is very safe.”
As she spoke, she continued walking forward.
s.h.i.+ Rui’er blinked in confusion. Why do I feel that Chu Yue’s previous expression seems like… he is waiting to watch a good show?
Suddenly, her gaze flickered. Could it be that something good is hidden in the tomb?!
Chu Liuyue continued walking forward and kept calling Shangguan Jing in her heart. Now, she desperately wanted to verify the guess in her heart!
