"Oh~"
Zhiyu held the apple in both hands, finishing it off in a few bites.
Lu Jin'an knew she was thirsty, so he gave her a few spirit fruits while releasing his Divine Soul to probe her body.
Logically, such a strong bloodline shouldn't feel thirst.
However, as soon as the Divine Soul touched Zhiyu, her gaze locked onto Lu Jin'an, staring unblinkingly.
Lu Jin'an didn't continue, feeling that the demon energy of her bloodline ford a self-protective chanism from inside out.
This was Zhiyu's own demon energy, yet it seed completely out of her control.
Lu Jin'an frowned slightly, not because of this protective chanism, but because he sensed there seed to be a subtle difference between her Candle Dragon Bloodline and normal dragon blood...
In thought, Zhiyu suddenly rolled onto the floor, ran directly to Lu Jin'an, and raised her juice-stained hand to pat his hand forcefully.
Watching Zhiyu, Lu Jin'an heard her seriously say, "Don't look, it will, will die!"
Hearing her voice, Lu Jin'an was about to speak when he saw Zhiyu showing a bit of confusion, then holding her stomach, she whispered, "Cake..."
Giving cake allows observing her bloodline?
Lu Jin'an patted Zhiyu's little head lightly, saying, "Giving cake is not allowed either."
"What's allowed then?" Zhiyu tilted her head, looking at Lu Jin'an in confusion.
?
Lu Jin'an was a bit taken aback, then heard her continue, "Zhiyu is hungry! Cake, want to eat!"
"..."
Lu Jin'an's hands clenched slightly, my thoughts are impure, I am guilty...
A playful laugh echoed from the doorway, and Lu Jin'an turned his head to see his Master, pretending to be calm, he said, "I was just teaching her."
Leaning at the doorway, Pei Wanyu looked at him with a smile, "Master didn't say anything, and Master thinks your consideration is correct, it's necessary to guard against this."
"So..." Pei Wanyu elegantly walked into the room, caressing Zhiyu's cheek, "After returning, make more delicious food, feed her until she's not interested in other things."
"Able to make delicious food!" Zhiyu, seizing the point, widened her mismatched eyes at Lu Jin'an, swallowing in between, as if drool could spill from her mouth the next second.
Pei Wanyu handed Lu Jin'an a handkerchief, Lu Jin'an wiped Zhiyu's mouth, feeling a strange sense of déjà vu hearing his Master's voice.
Raise her appetite threshold, make her lose interest in other food...
Lu Jin'an suppressed the thoughts spreading in his head and casually said, "Have Qiu Ye and the others do it, I don't have much ti."
"That works too." Pei Wanyu nodded, then said, "Let's go to Heroic Spirit Valley, the Sect Master is there too."
Lu Jin'an nodded, glanced at Zhiyu, who was looking conflicted and deep in thought about sothing, then handed her a spirit fruit, "Make do with this for now."
Zhiyu took the spirit fruit, her eyes fixed on Lu Jin'an, as if she'd finally figured sothing out, she chirpily said, "You're tasty!"
Zhiyu heard Lu Jin'an say "no ti", aning what he makes is the tastiest!
"I'm not tasty." Lu Jin'an gave Zhiyu a strange look, then led her to the window, opening it and placing her on the windowsill, watching the currents stirred up by the full-speed Fire Phoenix Boat: "What's your favorite thing to eat usually?"
Zhiyu dazedly looked at Lu Jin'an's head, quietly swallowing.
His head is filled with delicious things... would it taste good?
Zhiyu's swallowing increased in frequency, Lu Jin'an helplessly extended the handkerchief again, "I asked what you like to eat, not what you're eating, why drool?"
Zhiyu allowed him to wipe her drool, "Eat!"
Lu Jin'an looked back at Pei Wanyu, who was watching, "Master, you lead."
"Master brought Qingyue, won't."
Lu Jin'an sighed inwardly and shifted the topic, "Zhiyu, how did you use the space thod to steal the cake before?"
"Cake!"
"How, stealing?" Lu Jin'an patiently asked.
Zhiyu reached out, grabbed at the air, then put her hand in her mouth, "Aroma, grab!"
"..."
Seeing Zhiyu's innocent expression, Lu Jin'an decided to stop asking.
This little foodie seems to have no clue how to utilize demon energy... relying entirely on instinct!
"Alright, I understand." Lu Jin'an patted Zhiyu's head, "Sit quietly and watch outside, see if there's anything tasty."
"Oh~"
Though silly, when told to be quiet, Zhiyu stayed quiet the entire way, even when they reached the Heroic Spirit Valley, she remained sitting on the windowsill, silent.
Lu Jin'an sighed inwardly, such a silly one.
"Let's go."
"Oh~"
Lu Jin'an took Zhiyu's hand and followed Pei Wanyu off the Fire Phoenix Boat, where they t the Sect Master, Jun Bingquan, and Jun Ling at the entrance of Heroic Spirit Valley.
"Greetings, Sect Master!"
Lu Jin'an released Zhiyu's hand and bowed to Zheng Dongliu. Finding herself suddenly empty-handed, Zhiyu quickly grabbed his sleeve, glanced lazily at the goateed old man before losing interest and returning her gaze to Lu Jin'an.
"Did I lie to you?" Jun Ling whispered to Jun Bingquan.
Jun Bingquan nodded at Zhiyu, and Jun Ling quickly said, "So I don't have to stay in Wandao Sect to take care of this little ancestor, right?"
"We'll see." Jun Bingquan replied coolly, "She's only interested in food."
Jun Ling pouted, quietly shook her fist at Jun Bingquan, wishing she could kick him off.
Nearby, Zheng Dongliu nodded at Lu Jin'an and looked at Zhiyu, then said to Jun Bingquan, "You're really thinking of leaving her at Wandao Sect."
Jun Bingquan lowered his eyelids, "We can't protect her anymore. The Clan Leader is already confronting the Dragon Clan of the Imperial Court."
Hearing Jun Bingquan's words, Lu Jin'an glanced at Zhiyu; is she the blood descendant of the Azure Dragon Clan leader, Cang Qinglong Saint?
"Sect Master Zheng." Jun Bingquan smiled slightly, "You also wouldn't want her to fall into the hands of the Upper Realm's Imperial Court, would you?"
Zheng Dongliu chuckled, unfazed by Jun Bingquan's taunt, "Anything benefiting the Human Clan, I certainly won't pass up."
"In that case..." Jun Bingquan bowed to Zheng Dongliu, "The young dragon has one last request."
"Speak!"
Jun Bingquan looked at Lu Jin'an, "Saint Lu, could you take Zhiyu as your apprentice?"
Zheng Dongliu squinted at Jun Bingquan, Pei Wanyu's gaze turned cold, "You want to use this thod to divert the Emperor's attention from that woman, Cang Qing, don't you?"
Feeling the pressure from two powerful figures, Jun Bingquan's gaze didn't leave Lu Jin'an's face, "What does Saint Lu think?"
He paused, then said to Pei Wanyu, "Master Pei, since you are from the Imperial Court, you should understand the current situation of the Azure Dragon Clan, after all, back then..."
His voice stopped, the aning clear.
Pei Wanyu's expression remained indifferent, just as she was about to speak, Lu Jin'an directly said to Jun Bingquan, "I refuse."
"Saint Lu, you have Wandao Sect behind you, have Sect Master Zheng, and Master Pei too..." Jun Bingquan said patiently, "So..."
"I don't have that capability right now." Lu Jin'an was unmoved, "But Zhiyu can stay temporarily at Wandao Sect."
Jun Bingquan was about to say sothing more when Zheng Dongliu cut in, "It's settled."
Jun Bingquan looked at Lu Jin'an with so regret, since this plan didn't work, he could only devise another way to divert the Upper Realm's Imperial Court's attention.
"Oh, right." Jun Bingquan thought for a mont, "Zhiyu also has the bloodline of Taotie."
Upon hearing this, surprise flashed in Lu Jin'an's eyes, really?
"Sect Master Zheng, Master Pei." Jun Bingquan stated, "I've said everything I needed to say, I'll leave Zhiyu to Wandao Sect then, we'll be taking our leave first."
Upon hearing this, Jun Ling's eyes lit up. She could return to the Dragon Clan too?
Zheng Dongliu glanced at Jun Bingquan, "Aren't you afraid of causing trouble when you return?"
Jun Bingquan chuckled, "The Imperial Court won't easily control us, it's not a dead-end yet."
"Why protect her?" Zheng Dongliu gestured at Zhiyu.
Jun Bingquan quietly replied, "We all owe the deceased one a life."
Zheng Dongliu suddenly understood, "His daughter, ah."
"Yes." Jun Bingquan nodded.
Zheng Dongliu pondered for a few seconds, just about to speak, when he suddenly looked up into the distance, squinting.
Pei Wanyu and Jun Bingquan also looked over with surprise in their eyes.
Lu Jin'an curiously glanced over, but saw nothing.
"A battle in the Divine Hidden Realm..." Jun Bingquan smacked his lips, "This much commotion, who could it be?"
Zheng Dongliu took out the Communication Compass, ssages returning.
Couldn't capture the Sect Master of Wuji Demon Sect, Taishi Chong.
