Chapter 4684: Bestow A Na
Upon hearing Yue’er’s innocent question, the Azure Emperor turned his head slightly, a gentle laugh escaping his lips as he regarded her. “Little girl, have you already forgotten your master?” He then turned fully, sweeping his hand in a broad gesture around their surroundings. “Then look around you, do you sense anything familiar?”
Yue’er’s eyes widened in response to his words, her large, expressive eyes fixed on him, blinking in rapid succession. After a thoughtful pause, she spoke in a soft, surprised tone, “Master? Hmmmm?You look different! Although my strange master always wore a mask, I can still tell it that he isn’t you. Besides, this is my first ti here, so how could anything feel familiar?”
The Azure Emperor smiled, bemused. “That form was rely the one I adopted in the lower realm. It is not my true body. This is my true appearance. Your mother is already aware of this, but upon our return, my soul was sowhat unstable, so I spent a few days in ditation to recover.”
“So, you’re the real master we were told about?” Yue’er blinked again, her gaze unwavering as she continued to study him, thinking that her master’s eyes were so beautiful! They looked like they were always smiling, making her want to smile too.
“Indeed, I’m the real thing,” he confird with a light chuckle. His gaze swept over the three children as he continued, “The blood curse that afflicts your bodies will be removed by within three days. At that ti, the contracted beasts that have been suppressing your powers will also awaken. However, I must inform you that you are in danger. There are many outside who seek your lives and even intend to use you to threaten your mother. Your mother has entrusted you three little troublemakers to my care. From this mont forward, you must heed my words and avoid unnecessary trouble.”
“Mmm hmm!” The three children nodded in earnest agreent.
“Furthermore,” the Azure Emperor continued, his tone becoming slightly more formal, “Azure Emperor is my title. Everyone in the outside world knows as the Azure Emperor. You must rember this. From now on, should anyone inquire about your master, you are to state that the Azure Emperor of Yunxiao Mountain is your master. My title will serve as a shield, protecting you from being bullied by those in positions of power.”
He spoke calmly, his gaze fixed on the three attentive faces before him. Seeing their earnestness, a flicker of satisfaction ward his expression. The corners of his lips subtly curved upward, and a hint of a smile fleeted across his eyes.
“Yes, we understand,” the three children replied solemnly, secretly committing his words to mory.
“Also,” he added, his gaze becoming more serious, “now that you have beco my disciples, you must no longer use your forr nas. I will bestow upon you new nas, and when you venture out into the world in the future, you are to use only these nas. As for your true nas, rember never to utter them, for doing so could lead to your demise. Do you understand?”
“Yes,” the three responded in unison. No sooner had the word left their lips than Yue’er, her curiosity piqued, piped up, “Master, what nas will you give us?”
“Once you enter my Yunxiao Mountain, you beco mbers of my Azure Emperor’s lineage,” he declared, his voice resonating with a gentle authority. “Starting today, Hao’er will be known as Yun Chen, Muchen will be called Yun Yuan, and Yue’er will be nad Yun Qi.” As he spoke the na Yun Qi, a subtle light flickered in his eyes as he looked directly at Yue’er. The little girl was tilting her head, softly repeating the na “Yun Qi,” a simple act that seed to soften his gaze.
“Thank you, Master, for giving us nas,” Hao’er and Muchen said in unison, a sense of understanding dawning within them. They knew that with these new identities, their connection to Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu would remain concealed.
“Master, why is my na so simple? Is it just Yun Qi?” Yue’er asked, a touch of confusion in her voice.
