The Great Oishi Zu's
A Different Road

The atmosphere of the morning was a bit tense for Val, he felt goosebumps as he continued to be looked at by Emperor Zu without the slightest pause. The food in his mouth also felt hard to swallow.

"You seriously can't see Zen?"asked Emperor Zu he was a bit curious as to why the little girl was so adaptable.

Emperor Zu thought Val could walk without crashing or falling. He dropped Val off when he got to the gazebo and didn't put Val on the chair. But the little girl was able to occupy her seat by groping unlike any blind little boy in general.

"Val can't see" Val replied firmly after trying to swallow his food.

When he put the sticky textured cake with red bean filling and chewed it, Val felt a finger pressing on his cheek. Without hesitation Val immediately bit the finger after swallowing the cake.

Emperor Zu's forehead frowned, the small creature in front of him was very brave to bite his finger.

"Not food."

Val releases her bite, feeling guilty for the old man in front of her. Val was getting ready to be scolded however, unexpectedly Emperor Zu was not angry. Except just touching Val's jidat.

"You're so greedy, how could Zen have a granddaughter like you?"

"Val is not greedy! Grandpa's the one who comes close to the finger without food."let's Val fast.

The tip of Emperor Zu's lips lifted, he was extremely anxious when he saw Val's cheeks bulging. What if he pokes that cheek with chopsticks now? Is that cheek going to pop?

"I'm sorry Zen."

...

Zhu Rey looked at Val sharply, she wanted to ask Val for an explanation. Val who responded with Zhu Rey's attitude immediately explained. Why could he make Emperor Zhu know Val.

"So you mean you met him by accident and thought you were the son of one of his concubines?"

Val nodded in approval to Zhu Rey's words, the young man only showed his sour face. Val inched closer to Zhu Rey and attempted to comfort the young man.

"Forget it, since you've already caught his attention I'm not allowing you to come with me to meet the Elite Spirit Clan's Chief" Zhu Rey said leaving Val flabbergasted.

"That's cheating! Rey can't leave Val alone anymore." Val deftly grabbed Zhu Rey's hair.

"Awh, let Val go! Want you to whine, I won't take you."Zhu Rey tried to let go of Val's hand which held her hair tightly.

Val energy is not playing games, Zhu Rey might experience premature baldness due to Val.

"No way, Rey has to take Val away too."

"If you go there you get lost to another dimension, a human who has not reached the final Lord Venus stage just ends in death." Zhu Rey exasperated.

Val's movements came to a halt, the girl remembered something about the level of her power stage.

"Step Val has spirit beast blood." Val protested while remembering that.

"No Val, the spirit beast that has the human DNA gene cannot control the portal to enter the intended dimension, there you will enter the demon world dimension."

"There is if you manage to become an immortal being who is already in the final stage." Zhu Rey said seriously.

"That's impossible, it feels as far as Val no human has managed to enter into the final stage or the initial stage of the lord."

"That's because the current generation is very lazy, unlike 10 years ago."

"The legends disappeared, as if a new generation had to emerge to end the old generation." said Zhu Rey, she had already read a book about it.

"Here you go, don't get mad at Val any more when you end your studies at Hua San sect, I'll come pick you up."

Val did not respond to Zhu Rey's remark, the girl chose to leave her. Val's eyes are currently Zhu Rey lying. Val knows Zhu Rey will definitely be very long in the dimensions she points to. If Zhu Rey could not accompany her to go to another continent. No problem, Val can go alone because the girl knows that she will not stay with someone forever.

Seeing Val who was leaving her, Zhu Rey could only shut up. He would not hold the girl back, if he did then there were only regrets. She did not want Val to get hurt, after all Zhu Rey could not show her pitiful figure. What's more when she meets her father, then Val will see her helplessness.

The anxiety and the sense of mutual trust seemed to fade, they both keep each other's distance.The future faced by the two is not the same.Val has his own life goals, as well as Zhu Rey. If the road they take stops at a branching place. They don't want to have to separate.

"Are you ready?"

Ang Bei and Dun Ming appeared in the corner of the room, and they watched Val and Zhu Rey's conversation from the beginning. And hide the air of their existence from Val.

"I've been ready since yesterday." replied Zhu Rey."After all, you have also tasted a lot of human food, right?"

Dun Ming laughed he was caught by Zhu Rey for eating a snack in the palace kitchen, secretly.

"Forget it, I'll open the door to her dimension."

From behind the wall of the room, Val's fingers clenched tightly. He didn't really leave, he thought Zhu Rey would go after him. But the young man is actually going to leave now. The pain in Val's heart, his feelings now mixed up could not be described by himself.

"Truly, what am I feeling right now?"ask Val to himself.

"My feelings are chaotic, I want to go berserk, I want to scream, I want to stop Zhu Rey from leaving."Val squeezes her skirt tightly.

The girl decides to enter Zhu Rey's room, as if Val is late to say goodbye. Zhu Rey was already nowhere in place, all that was left was the flickering remains of the dimensional door.

Val could not help but cry, she cried.Right now Val felt she was alone, she felt Zhu Rey would leave her for a long time. Just like her mother and foster father Zhu Yan and Alyosh. Now where is Val leaning? The place to lean is not there.And who will lecture him? Who would scold Val again other than Zhu Rey? Who would run towards Val when Val was in danger?

Val's shaken shoulders held back so hard that the sound of her crying could not be heard, Val felt that she was destined to live alone. The girl ran out of Zhu Rey's room, she didn't want to linger there. Because her feelings can't be controlled if she stays there.

Dugh...

Val felt like he was bumping into someone, the girl reflexively held herself back from falling backwards. A familiar voice sounded familiar in his ear.

"What's wrong with you?"Chu Zu lifted Val's body and hugged her.

Chu Zu was greatly shocked when he was hit by Val, not to mention that his adopted daughter was crying. Chu Zu gently patted Val's back while holding her. Trying to calm Val down, she wouldn't ask why Val was crying. Because Val must feel calm and comfortable, in order to express his heart easily.
