The Emperor God Wife Is Naughty
155. Masked Man

A pair of golden irises looked at the clear sky silently above the tallest tower. The world seemed peaceful from the looks of it, but its distant vision found no visible peace from the outside.

Sheng Xian had the privilege of the eyes of the world. He has a vision of what he wants to see. Therefore, he always knew the conditions of the outside world despite being in a distant and closed environment.

However, his abilities are still limited. It could not be used to search for someone specifically, which made him feel helpless when recalling someone who was a thorn in his heart.

The elf behind Sheng Xian was aware of his queen's overcast mood. Because today was the day on which the Holy Tower was formed, as well as the day on which the fairy race was split apart and destroyed. Sheng Xian lost a lot of things, all the fairies that had been present back then knew his feelings.

"Your Majesty is still looking for him?" The elf disagreed if Sheng Xian continued to search for the traitor's whereabouts. But he understood Sheng Xian's feelings, so did not forbid him.

"Ruoruo's met him, hasn't he?" Sheng Xian continued to look at the sky with a faint look.

"Maybe." The elf was not sure.

"Then he should be fine."

"Didn't want to say it to Ruoruo?"

"If he asks, I'll say it. Don't know if he'll be disappointed or not."

"Although Ruoruo's temperament was hard to guess and stubborn, she easily understood the situation. Especially after so many years of living, he was not as bad as he seemed. After all, none of this is His Majesty's fault."

Sheng Xian was silent for a while. "I hope so."

Then, a golden silhouette flashed across the sky telling of his whereabouts and disappeared so quickly. The elf behind Sheng Xian was a bit surprised and put on a cautious stance, but Sheng Xian's hand gesture stopped him.

"He's not an enemy, I don't allow you to be disrespectful." Sheng Xian did not change the intonation of his voice at all, just looking at the direction the golden beam was going.

The elf looked down. "I'm sorry for my stupidity, Your Majesty."

A golden beam that had just flashed into the palace, entered the highest part of the tower through the airway. The highest part of the tower cannot be entered by ordinary people, there must be permission from the Queen of the Holy Tower. Only certain people can enter freely. Other than the Queen of the Holy Tower, the queen's personal disciple was one of them.

In one of the tower rooms, a silver wall covered the room with lace hanging from the room as part of the cultivation support.

A star-like light emitting rays filled the room without any darkness. Silver rays danced in the air forming a flow of energy that looked like a walking wind, centered on the end of the room.

Various cultivation equipment as well as other rare objects were arranged, filled with silver rays that were like the flow of water into the energy center. All the objects evaporated and disappeared, seeping into the energy center where a girl was sitting still with her eyes tightly closed.

Her silver hair sparkled like diamonds, her snow-white skin added with plain white clothes made her look more like a fairy. Her beautiful face in a closed-eye state looked innocent, yet with mature seriousness and a stronger aura.

If such a beauty appeared in the middle of the world, there would be no other woman who could match her. It had a powerful goddess aura, a gentle fairy appearance, as well as a dragon gaze that shone with an icy blue light.

He had opened his eyes, yet his gaze was extremely cold without any ripples of emotion. Sensing the existence of others after a long time alone, he suddenly became alert and took out a silver sword that was stuck beside him.

Disappearing from its place, it appeared accompanied by a ferocious sword swing that split through the air with astonishing speed. The sword was aimed at someone, yet that person quickly dodged the attack and repelled it with one hand.

The blue iris is getting colder. His pace was extremely fast as if there was not only one person, then launched a deadly attack from two different directions. The hanging lace caused him to fail to recognize the figure that came uninvited, but did not prevent him from fighting.

The silver rays throughout the room suddenly moved and twisted throughout the room, forming a large blade that condensed in the girl's hand. The silver bar spun in the air, splitting the hanging lace and chasing after the mysterious figure.

When the silver blade found the target, it instantly shot out at high speed. The golden light blocked the path of the silver blade to rip apart its target, completely pressing the golden blade until it shattered into pieces.

Seeing the blade crumble, the girl stepped out her legs quickly while shaking the sword violently. Several sword blades floated in the air forming a figure and shooting at the target simultaneously.

Some people could take out the blade when it had broken through to a high level, but only in a matter of less than 20 blades. This time, the girl took out more blades than expected so as to form a large-sized dragon figure, willing to tear the enemy apart without leaving a body.

The slash of the dragon blade caused a silver glow that surged throughout the room, blocking the view. However, when the girl's blue iris looked back more clearly, her target had disappeared from the attack causing her dragon to shatter and scatter due to the impact of the wall.

His forehead wrinkled, then realized the other party was behind him. Quickly, he turned around and swung the sword to injure the opponent. No matter what speed, her sword was blown away making the girl have to use her bare hands to beat him up.

The girl who was none other than Xie Ruo let out a silver light in his hand and attacked the unknown opponent who had a fleeting masked look. He could not recognize it clearly, but when he looked closely, he felt familiar.

Unwilling to think too much, he used his empty-handed attack movements and high kicks to counter the figure. The mask is unusual, it can disguise the aura and identity of a person so that it cannot be recognized. It seemed like it was no ordinary person, let alone managed to infiltrate without his teacher knowing. He should be careful.

Xie Ruo's attack movements were extremely fast and neat, each attack aimed at a vital point to finish the fight quickly. His hand took out a small knife, then aimed towards the figure intending to injure him, but the figure was no less quick and managed to prevent him from using another weapon.

Unable to use weapons, he used all his magic. The enchantment magic was not tied to the soul, so it did not have enchantment magic since changing bodies. But he had another magic that was stronger than the enchantment magic of the Holy Tower.

A cold fire magic appeared in his hand, shot into the air and expanded like a lotus. Since his soul had fused with the fire element, he easily controlled the white and cold-looking cold flame as if it had fused with his body, propagating throughout the room and attacking from all directions like a net.

The cold flames were legendary heavenly flames. Stored in the core of hell, hotter than any other fire. Unlike the destructive and corrosive hellfire, the cold flames were extremely cold and piercing. Not as cold as ice, nor as hot as fire. It was not something that humans or other beings could accept and was too heaven-defying.

But in front of that figure, the cold flames looked like a child's toy. The figure moved as if it was in the wind, darting at high speed until Xie Ruo could not guess it.

Xie Ruo opened his perception, following the direction of the figure's departure. Naturally, he moved in the direction the figure was going and directed the cold flames.

When the cold flames touched the figure, Xie Ruo suppressed him intending to finish the fight quickly. This kind of person, the longer the fight went, the more profitable it was for him than it was for Xie Ruo.

Xie Ruo picked up the slashed sword then jumped at him. When his sword was about to land in front of that figure, his sword was restrained with just one hand. However, there was one thing that made Xie Ruo misfocus.

The finger that came into contact with the tip of his sword, had something that attracted attention that made his eyes widen. The thing that was worn on one of the fingers, he was very familiar with it. Similar to the ring he wore, without ever taking it off since it was worn.

It had been 10 years, suddenly Xie Ruo felt his heart churn, not knowing what he actually felt until it felt very uncomfortable. But one thing he knew, the 10-year wait was over.

"Xuanzi?"

Taking off the sword in his hand, Xie Ruo scattered into the arms of the masked figure he turned out to be very familiar with. Why didn't he realize it in the first place? That's really annoying.

All of the murderous aura and attack marks as well as the cold flames slowly disappeared. Qu Xuanzi without saying anything, hugged Xie Ruo even tighter to let go of all his yearning that had been held back for 10 years. This time, all that waiting seemed to happen in the blink of an eye. He misses his little girl.

"Why not say it from the beginning? What if ... I really kill you?" Xie Ruo felt himself to be very stupid before.

The thing was, Qu Xuanzi's aura was completely disguised and unrecognizable. The mask had a special power that completely disguised everything so Xie Ruo thought that the one who came was an intruder, considering that today the Holy Tower is open for recruitment. He should not just attack.

"I'm gonna try not to get killed."

"Let's just say I can't kill you, even though I should have been able to defeat you in the past" Xie Ruo grumbled.

Let all that pass. Now, Isabella is Xie Ruo, while Sean is Qu Xuanzi.

Xie Ruo took off a hug and looked at Qu Xuanzi with a smile. "I originally wanted to return to the Xie Clan in a week, but you've already come first."

"Didn't you miss me?"

Xie Ruo took off the mask that partially covered Qu Xuanzi's face. That face .. is just like 10 years ago and always manages to leave anyone fascinated. Fortunately, he wore a mask as recommended.

Kissing the man's lips at a glance, then Xie Ruo said, "Very."

"I miss you more."

"After your long absence, the master teacher has become colder." Xie Ruo sneered. He remembered, his teacher was a disciple that Qu Xuanzi did not acknowledge. That meant, Qu Xuanzi was his master teacher. Not one of his first calls since being in this world.

"Am I really cold?" Qu Xuanzi thought he was acting normal. What is cold?

It seemed like the surroundings were not good at making Qu Xuanzi return to his former self. Xie Ruo pinched both of Qu Xuanzi's cheeks, feeling uneasy about that flat face.

"You, yeah. Didn't you learn from the Azure Dragon?"

"He's crazy."

Xie Ruo smiled wryly. "At least he makes more sense."

"Do you make sense too?"

Xie Ruo pouted. It seemed like Qu Xuanzi was going to ridicule him again.

Qu Xuanzi smiled slightly. "Nothing makes sense, I like you that way."

"It can be sweet talk."

"You think I've been quiet for 10 years?" He touched the corner of Xie Ruo's lips with his finger. "It's okay not to talk, but I'm good at acting."

Right after saying that, he fused his lips together with Xie Ruo's lips, making a gentle gesture of feeling every inch of the sweetness he had missed over the years.

For the past 10 years, Qu Xuanzi had not been idle at all. The Upper World had returned, and he had a successive task that had not even been completed until now. Most likely to be finished in some time in this year, he would resolve the matter much faster especially after Xie Ruo walked out of the Sacred Tower.

The war was not over yet, he tried to clear the path as best he could and spare Xie Ruo a step unhindered. Although Xie Ruo was not weak, and he had already examined him, the enemy he faced was much stronger than anything one could have expected.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

In the Night Shadow Sect, where the entire residence was filled with a dark and gloomy aura, the figure of a handsome man sat in his chair while listening to the 'story' from the active holo will be the form of one of his friends who is experiencing problems.

Since then Pei Xi listened to Zhong Xiaorong's random chatter, starting from the serious chatter about the Xia County massacre case and the mystery of Zhong Xiaorong's mother's death related to the strange poison in the palace, which was the cause of death, until the boring talk about Zhong Xiaorong's curses about his grandmother-in-law who always provoked a commotion.

The man sitting on the chair was yawning to Zhong Xiaorong's surprise. His handsome face slightly closed his eyes, while supporting his head with one of his hands on the back of the chair.

He looked very handsome like a perfect creation of god, especially with a firm jaw that looked more mature. You could say, his good looks now surpassed Yan Yao who was once very handsome.

But it was different if juxtaposed with Qu Xuanzi. Forget it, that one man is not a human. Do not be confused with humans.

"It's over?" Pei Xi felt the direction of Zhong Xiaorong's conversation was getting strayed to and fro. Was talking about grandma-in-law, now talking about the man who teased her in the palace.

"Sister Xi, you are my third brother, am I not to confide in you?" Zhong Xiaorong put on a pitiful expression, as if he would cry at any moment.

She never showed that expression to anyone—including Yan Yao—except her brother. Since Pei Xi was the most recognized elder brother, Zhong Xiaorong treated him as an elder brother, let alone remembered about Zhong Wenyue.

Suddenly Zhong Xiaorong's countenance dimmed further, unfortunately Pei Xi took it as an act so that he loosened Zhong Xiaorong as usual.

"Sister Xi, have you heard from Ruoruo?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"When do you think Ruoruo will return?"

Speaking of Xie Ruo, Pei Xi felt his heart warm. Since long ago, his feelings for Xie Ruo had not changed.

Unfortunately, he could not show it clearly and could only retreat considering that he was not an ordinary human being. If it was only Emperor Zhongbu, it would not be a big deal. But, what about the Celestial Emperor? He can only give up. Moreover, Xie Ruo and the Celestial Emperor had a marriage agreement.

If Xie Ruo disliked the Celestial Emperor, he would support Xie Ruo and try to compete. But the truth is, he hasn't been able to compete it has come first. He could only watch from far away.

"Sister Xi!" Zhong Xiaorong shouted resuscitated the brooding man.

"Maybe a little later, or five years later. You have patience, he'll be back."

"You know? How sad I was to hear Xie Ran die, but it turns out I forgot that the one who died was the real Xie Ran, not Xie Ruo. I'm so embarrassed." Zhong Xiaorong pouted.

Pei Xi rolled his eyes and took a serious stance. "For the case of your mother's death, it might be difficult because it relates to the imperial members. So, I will try to find connections within the palace and gather information. It takes time."

"Not in a hurry." Zhong Xiaorong was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

"After coming from the Yan Clan, call Mei Liena to the sect. I have something to talk to him about."

Zhong Xiaorong nodded obediently. He waved his hand before finally turning off the call connection. The picture disappeared from Pei Xi's sight.

Pei Xi got up from the chair and immediately ordered some people to investigate the palace secretly. He thought this problem was not simple. If the Prime Minister had anything to do, then Liu Chang could be in danger and would be a huge blow to him.

Moreover, it did not know how Zhong Xiaorong was feeling. He felt that none of them would end well easily.

"It's been a long time. Brother, how are you?"

That voice suddenly came making Pei Xi surprised. He turned around, looking at the golden-eyed female figure with pointed ears smiling at him. That face, the last one he saw was 10 years ago which ended with a farewell, Jian Wu.

"It turns out you're alive, brother."
