Chapter 615: Chapter 617 Warmhearted Breakfast
In the past, Zhu Minglang thought that so-called Gods’ people, God’s Descendants, and Divine Chosen were merely symbols of status and didn’t actually serve any practical purpose.
But having arrived at the Tian Shu God Domain, Zhu Minglang never imagined that he himself would become a “person above others.”
Wherever Zhu Minglang stayed, there was always a group of people who seemed more vulnerable. They kept a distance that wasn’t too far from Zhu Minglang, as if by staying a bit closer to him, they could live a few years longer.
“They are afraid of things in the night and know that being nearer to you is relatively safe,” Mi Rong explained to Zhu Minglang in advance, knowing his memory wasn’t too good.
“Are there creatures that walk in the darkness capable of sneaking into this bustling Bone Temple and abducting people?” Zhu Minglang observed that most people inside the Bone Temple weren’t sleeping.
“Yes, yes, there are always some that know strange spells, those beings of darkness that can even avoid the inscriptions on the steles erected throughout the Bone Temple,” Mi Rong nodded in agreement.
“Oh, then stay close to me tonight. I went through much trouble to save your life; I wouldn’t want you to disappear without a trace,” Zhu Minglang said with an air of righteousness.
Mi Rong’s pretty face blushed slightly, but she still nodded her head.
The nights in this world were exceedingly frightening, but those who moved about with ulterior motives during the day weren’t much better. In any case, one must learn to protect oneself and find reliable people.
…
The night passed without incident, and Zhu Minglang didn’t even hear the disturbing whispers that troubled the minds of those around him. But the people nearby, jumpy at every little sound, seemed tortured by the night creatures that lingered outside the Bone Temple, making it hard for them to fall asleep.
Zhu Minglang slept a while, and when he awoke, the day was already bright. The delicate beauty who had been beside him was suddenly nowhere to be found, which made Zhu Minglang sigh inwardly.
As expected, the women out there are unreliable, drawing close to him only to spend the night. At dawn, they leave, leaving behind only their lingering fragrance, an inevitable reminiscence that left one helpless and longing.
Finding a small water source, Zhu Minglang freshened up his face, which the entire Bone Temple had selected as the epitome of perfection. Just as he was contemplating his next steps to stir the waters, he caught the scent of delicious egg soup.
“This is for you.” Mi Rong emerged with a smile, handing Zhu Minglang the slightly burned fried egg.
A warm feeling suddenly rose in Zhu Minglang’s heart. So she had gone to make breakfast for him. Although the small fried egg was a bit wild and unrecognizable, it still smelled good.
After enjoying a breakfast from beyond this world, Zhu Minglang was about to continue inquiring about matters concerning the Tian Shu God Domain, when a group of people dressed in cloud-gold silk garments with an aura of solemn holiness approached swiftly. Upon seeing Mi Rong eating fried eggs with Zhu Minglang, their faces showed surprise and astonishment.
“We traveled all night and finally found you here. Little Rong, don’t be temperamental anymore. Big Brother didn’t expect this Star Moon collection task to involve the Little Emperor himself. If you really detest the Little Emperor, just treat him like a stone, not speaking half a word to him or paying him any attention,” said the man with thick eyebrows who was leading the group.
Traveled all night??
Zhu Minglang never thought much of this before, as he always found the night to be the most beautiful, especially the lantern-lit willows reflecting off the river near the pleasure boats…
But the nights in the Tian Shu God Domain were extremely terrifying.
They had no nightlife, and if there was any, it could only be in places protected by a True God.
And those daring to walk at night were either highly advanced in their cultivation base, fearing nothing in the darkness, or similar to someone like him, a Divine Chosen, before whom spirits and ghosts scattered!
“I don’t want to see him,” Mi Rong stated firmly, anger in her voice.
“It’s all for the Holy Monarch. You’re being too childish. It’s just travelling together; we’re not asking you to share a bed. Do you really need to run off at the slightest provocation? As a young lady with limited cultivation base and difficulty defending yourself with divine skills, if something were to happen to you, how would we ever explain it to the Holy Monarch?” the man with thick eyebrows lectured.
“Elder brother, you are a man and naturally do not understand how filthy and nauseating some thoughts hidden in people’s eyes are. When he is in front of you, he naturally behaves properly, but as soon as he gets a slight chance to be alone with me, or when you are not watching, he wishes he could devour me alive. To have me interact more with such a person is no better than throwing me into the Suye Demon Cave!” Mi Rong was obviously not the completely weak type of woman; when faced with something she could not accept, she argued her case with reason.
“Those who cultivate Extreme Desire may have some quirks, but once they’ve greatly advanced, they are actually just like us. In any case, you can rest assured. We are doing this for the Star Moon Jade Luili. I swear I will not force you to interact with him!” the bushy-browed man said.
Star Moon Jade Luili!!
Zhu Minglang initially maintained an attitude of listening to gossip with ears pricked up, but upon catching these key words, his eyes instantly lit up!
Ever since Little White had completed his cycle of transformation, Zhu Minglang had been inquiring about the Heaven Morning Luili everywhere.
But looking across the entire Supreme Court, all the Moon Glass available was Moonstone Glass, and though there was the extremely rare Moon Jade Glass, it was only in fragments—never had he seen a complete piece!
Moon Glass, this was now Zhu Minglang’s destiny. With it, Little White could use the Sundial Pearl to rapidly complete several stages of growth.
Speaking of becoming a god, Zhu Minglang believed Little White had the greatest hope of becoming a Dragon God. This time, it was born exuding an aura of a young Little God Dragon throughout!
“I don’t trust you.” Mi Rong was obviously deceieved by the meddlesome elder brother more than once!
On bright and sunny days to taste osmanthus fairy cakes in the Divine City, she would coincidentally bump into that Little Emperor at the restaurant.
When she went hiking and viewing flowers on the Holy Mountain in wonderful weather, eight out of ten times, that Little Emperor would also be there.
This time coming out for training, she was genuinely doing some feasible tasks for the Holy Monarch, but somehow she ended up travelling with that group of people.
Mi Rong seriously suspected her elder brother would rather tie her up and send her straight to someone’s house!
“I am your brother, if you don’t trust me, who will you trust? Could it be this little man who follows you around like a fawning dog?” The bushy-browed man glanced at Zhu Minglang, speaking with unfriendly tones.
“????”
The silent types often look like masters.
Which part of my behavior looked like I was behaving like a fawning dog?
Didn’t you see the heartwarming breakfast your sister made for me this morning, not to mention what she did last night…
“Elder brother, how can you insult people so casually? This person is…” Mi Rong said, somewhat angrily reproaching him.
“I am indeed someone she can trust.” Zhu Minglang interrupted Mi Rong.
The Divine Chosen.
This identity should be rather sensitive.
Zhu Minglang also did not know if there was a power in this world capable of seizing the favors of a True God; it felt like it would be wiser to keep a low profile before fully understanding the situation.
Mi Rong was also astute, understanding immediately.
