Val did not expect to go to the next village took about half a day, once there Val immediately left Zhu Rey.
The girl bought a few sets of non-formal clothes, she was already fed up with the sect uniforms. Then give some sweets and other snacks. After being satisfied Val returned to look for Zhu Rey who had been silent near the village gate.
The young man looked at Val with a huff, he was left with nothing. Usually Val would drag him to come along and try some things that caught the girl's attention. But Zhu Rey chose to refrain from scolding Val.
"Val forgot to return your ring."Val said as he removed Zhu Rey's ring.
Zhu Rey rudely picked it up, and put it on. Val is not fussy and preaches his actions. Is it because since last night he hasn't pinched some of Val's requests?
"Rey is it true that Zu Ji Xuan is here."Val narrowed his eyes trying to find the figure of his adoptive father in the crowd of people.
"Hmm a minute."Zhu Rey tried to remember.
Ah, right Zu Ji Xuan will pick them up in front of the village gate so maybe Zu Ji Xuan hasn't arrived at the village yet.
"We stay here or sit in that chair."Zhu Rey said as she pointed to a long chair near the wall of the house owned by local residents.
Val approves of her they both sit on that chair, the sun is so hot it's a bad idea if it's standing right at her gate. While waiting for Val to eat her food, the atmosphere seemed awkward to Zhu Rey.
Usually Val would complain then whine, now the girl remained silent and calm while eating her food. Zhu Rey couldn't stand that! To hell with Zhu Long's unreasonable request in his opinion.
Shortly after, Zu Ji Xuan appeared at the village gate. He asked his train to stay outside the village afraid of attracting people. The man looked for Zhu Rey and Val and he found the two children easily sitting in a long chair not far from the gate.
"Kids!"Shouted Zu Ji Xuan happily.
Val who heard her almost choking in surprise, Zu Ji Xuan came in and hugged Val and Zhu Rey. Val felt so tormented he immediately let go.
"Dad... Uhuk! Please don't surprise us and hugging immediately makes Val's neck feel tormented."Tegur Val doesn't like it.
Zu Ji Xuan scratched his non-itchy head, "Sorry Dad missed you too much."
"It's okay."Zhu Rey withdrew from Zu Ji Xuan.
"How are you guys? Are you eating right? Why do you look so skinny."Zu Ji Xuan's chirping made Zhu Rey careless.
"Our news is good, Val eats a lot and so does Rey."
"Thank God."Zu Ji Xuan rubbed Val and Zhu Rey's heads together.
The man held Val and Zhu Rey in each arm, he felt overwhelmed as it turned out that his adopted children were gaining weight. They don't look fat.
"Good for you to eat well, now let's go home your mother waits anxiously at home."Zu Ji Xuan ran towards the carriage he could not wait to show off his daughter to the father.
The last time he showed off his father Zhu Rey was so proud because, Zhu Rey had the same attitude as his father. Both cold and cruel, then Val? Her little girl is so cute and adorable. Who doesn't fall for Val?
"Hmm? Geez, Val, I just realized you were wearing a blindfold."Zu Ji Xuan cried.
She was worried and afraid that Val's eyes would hurt, but her little girl didn't look whining and in pain.
"Val is not allowed to remove the human cover."Zhu Rey tried to explain to Zu Ji Xuan not to misunderstand."His eyes are injured, he's still in the treatment stage."
Val did not expect Zhu Rey to lie but it was also good, Val was afraid that Zu Ji Xuan would be afraid of her and would not be close anymore.
"My poor son, I'll find a healer who has a great ability to heal your eyes."Said Zu Ji Xuan with teary eyes.
"There's no need for father, Val is fine anyway the alchemy teacher in the sect treats Val's eyes."Val said it was a lie.
Inevitably Zu Ji Xuan believed Val's words even though he doubted her, there were many things he wanted to ask. It was just that he was afraid that Val and Zhu Rey would not answer.
The three of them fell silent, Zu Ji Xuan was in a state of mind all along Val must have been afraid of the terrible events that occurred when he was about to go to the palace. I hope his daughter has no major trauma.
"Rey, actually why would Val get hurt?"Zu Ji Xuan asked could not bear it.
Zhu Rey tried to find an excuse."He was injured due to carelessness, entering the herb garden and accidentally being exposed to poisonous herbs."
"I think I should find a healer."
"No need, Val's eyes have to be closed for a while because both eyes need a lot of time to recover."
"You sure?" Zu Ji Xuan looked at Zhu Rey sharply.
"You don't want to believe me?"Zhu Rey won't lose.
"Dad believes in you."
Pukkp...
Zu Ji Xuan's large hand patted Zhu Rey's shoulder gently, in the end their conversation ended just like that. Zhu Rey falls asleep with Val, not wanting to be asked more deeply, who has to rack her brains to answer useless questions.
In another part of the world, Zhu Yan was staring at the message he got. His mission was over he didn't expect it to be this fast. But he was also perplexed when he got the invitation from the Emperor's companion figure where the territory he was treading.
"Your old dragon told humans about their whereabouts here?"Zhu Yan asked Alyosh.
Alyosh who had been laying down on the bed of the inn earlier, the supreme ruler outrageously assigned an important task only to himself and Zhu Yan. While other clan leaders are busy with the new year holiday.
The dimensional crack was indeed terrifying that was why Alyosh and Zhu Yan were ordered, to search for materials from different parts of the world to overcome the dimensional crack. Even though every world has a protector, but because it has an old age slowly the protector is getting weaker.It is dangerous for the lives of all creatures.
Plaque...
"Take me Alyosh!"Shouted Zhu Yan beaver.
"I didn't do it just maybe there was a spy who just happened to pass by and tell us where we are."Reply Alyosh tried to lower Zhu Yan's anger.
Alyosh wished he would come home soon and not meet Zhu Yan again.
"Huh, has the woman known our energy even though it is hidden."Grunt Zhu Yan."After all he disappeared for 1 decade after finishing his war with the Devil nation."
"I don't care, tomorrow's new year I want to go home and have fun."Cibir Alyosh managed to get Zhu Yan to land a raw bogem on his head.
"You forgot my son and Val."
Zhu Yan's words made Alyosh remember his cute little girl."I forgot to have a daughter, I missed her but we already promised to meet her on the Chang Lan continent."
"At least let's go find a new year's gift for her and ask the deliveryman from our dimension to send his gift to Val and Zhu Long."Take Zhu Yan with a radiant face.
"But you have to come home for a while, I want to check on the dying old jackfruit."Alyosh said with a sly grin.
Zhu Yan rolled his eyes lazily, he knew the man was just looking for an excuse to sleep on his beloved pillow.
"Just do what you want as long as you follow my orders today."
"All right."
The two of them shook hands, maybe this is a bit strange. Zhu Yan had his own partner as well as Alyosh. No the old dragon had no partner, they were friends since childhood and had no special feelings. But somehow they didn't mind becoming Zhu Val's guardian while they were in the human world.
"You're not interested in divorcing your husband?"Whisper Alyosh while playing his eyebrows jail.
"You want to be cursed like your brother is blinded by love?"Ketus Zhu Yan's.
"No I'm kidding hahaha, after all you're not attractive in the Dragon clan are also many beautiful women."Cibir Alyosh successfully made Zhu Yan furious.
The two of them were silent and staring at each other, they were in a dilemma as to why fate was so miserable. If only there were no terrible curses of fitting and condemnation from the violent ancestors. All the clans definitely did not hesitate for cross-marriage.
It will probably produce new species and likely have stronger powers. And have a chance to become one of the 12 leaders of the elite spirit Clan. There is nothing new in the political system.
