Zhao Changnong looked at it in surprise and smiled bitterly."Prince Consort, you really know how to joke. My two great granduncles have extremely firm Dao hearts. They have been sitting in front of this cave for nearly a hundred years and have never moved at all. They have never said a word. Even their pale beard and hair have been covered in black ash.”
"Oh…! I see."
Qiao Xuan finally understood. Seeing that Zhao Changnong seemed to be honored, he asked again,""What about your face? Why wasn't there any black ash on his face? Is this shameless?"
Zhao Changnong's expression immediately changed as he shouted,""What do you mean by that?”
If it wasn't for the fact that the Martial Emperor Patriarch had instructed him to treat this kid as a distinguished guest, hoping to win him over, he would have taught this kid a lesson long ago. This place wasn't the Underworld. This kid was too ignorant! Zhao Changnong suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Hey, Brother Zhao, don't misunderstand! I'm just curious. I don't have any other intentions. I don't understand your ways of the world, that's why I asked.”
Qiao Xuan saw that Zhao Changnong had been angered to the point of suffocation, so he quickly imitated Jiang Chu's evil smile and pretended to apologize sincerely.
Zhao Changnong felt that the kid's apology was not bad, but seeing the kid's evil smile, he felt that his face was asking for a beating. However, he could not really hit him, so he did not go too far.
All of a sudden, they heard a " Gu Gu " sound and saw the kid pressing down on his shriveled stomach. Zhao Changnong hurriedly brought Qiao Xuan and flew forward.
After flying for another 15 minutes, they finally passed through the vast sea of clouds. Suddenly, they were filled with a verdant and pleasant scenery!
Qiao Xuan's spirits were lifted. His eyes were filled with strange peaks, lush and green, strange cliffs, hanging pine trees and cranes. Then, Zhao Changnong brought Qiao Xuan across the peaks and cliffs, descending towards the vast and beautiful Floating Rainbow Valley below.
Zhao Changnong then pointed down leisurely and said with a smile,"" This is the Floating Rainbow Valley where the disciples of the prefecture spend their days in leisure. There are steep peaks around this valley, and the water vapor floating on the peaks is reflected by the bright light.”
Qiao Xuan was too lazy to listen to his introduction, and instead focused on admiring the scenery. He saw that in this valley inlaid with red and green, there were gardens of flowers, rows of trees, and mountains. Moreover, the red flowers and green trees were hidden among them. Sometimes, there were beautiful women, sometimes there were rich men, and there were even thousands of cliffs that rose into the clouds.
As Qiao Xuan praised, he turned his head and saw the bright river hanging high up in the sky. It was like jade pouring down from the sky, deep and violent. It crashed into the green pool, and the smoke was vast. The roar was endless, and the aura was shocking!
Moreover, in this valley, there were pavilions and pavilions that stood according to the shape and position. Sometimes there were talented scholars, sometimes there were beautiful women, and there were also buildings and halls along the river. Sometimes there were heroes, and sometimes there were beautiful women.
There were also many kinds of strange herbs and herbs growing in the herbal field. They all emitted a strong fragrance. Not only did they often attract the apprentice alchemists, but there were also many strange beasts wandering around.
At this time, Zhao Changnong had already shut his mouth and allowed Qiao Xuan to enjoy the scenery in the valley. However, when he saw that the Heavenly Feast Pavilion was in front of him, he brought Qiao Xuan straight to the highest level. Before the guests and guests could take their seats, a beautiful attendant came forward to wait for instructions.
Zhao Changnong then ordered for breakfast to be served and continued to introduce the dishes to Qiao Xuan.""This is the Heavenly Feast Pavilion, a place for elders and disciples to eat…”
Then, the waiters quickly served the delicacies. Seeing that there were no other instructions, they carefully retreated to the door.
Qiao Xuan didn't wait for Zhao Changnong to speak and immediately wolfed down his food. He had been starving for two to three days and his stomach was empty. He wasn't afraid of Zhao Changnong's suspicion at all. Moreover, he had already passed through Zhao Wuhuang's divine eyes. As long as he didn't expose any irrefutable evidence.
Qiao Xuan believed that Zhao Changnong would have a unique understanding of the flaws he had revealed and would come up with a suitable reason.
Zhao Changnong really knew this kid. He hadn't drunk a drop of water for almost two days. He really didn't doubt this hungry ghost eating. Instead, he sat quietly at the side and drank slowly as if he was thinking.
Zhao Changnong wanted to ask for more dishes when he saw that the kid had quickly finished all the dishes. However, the kid patted his stomach in satisfaction and wiped his mouth while waving his hand. Then, he burped and said slowly,"Let's go!"
"Where to?" Zhao Changnong was a little confused.
"Brother Zhao, have you forgotten? "You chased me so hard because of the stolen cultivation technique. Hurry up and take me to deal with the old thief slave. I still have to find out about the corner thief. I can't stay here for long.”
Qiao Xuan deliberately replied like this. In fact, he was really worried. He hoped to see Old Yang as soon as possible and see his current situation.
"There's no need to rush this matter. Are you satisfied with these dishes?”
Zhao Changnong asked with a smile. Seeing that the kid was pouting noncommittally, he added,"These are just appetizers. Prince Consort, you can fill your stomach first. Tonight, I will hold a Mountain Sea Banquet in Nixia Hall to welcome you. At that time, you can drink to your heart's content and feast.”
"What Mountain Sea Banquet? Do you really think I haven't eaten anything good before?”
Qiao Xuan's eyes flashed with disdain. He did not answer, but he maintained a calm expression.
Zhao Changnong paused for a moment. Seeing that the kid didn't have any reaction, he thought to himself,'This isn't a foodie. I'll find a chance to bribe him at the Mountain Sea Banquet tonight.' Then, he asked,"I wonder if you have any way to get information about this Top Horn Thief?”
"Old method, incognito. Brother Zhao, you have to help!”
Qiao Xuan replied with a smile as he cupped his hands in front of his chest. He randomly found an answer to brush off Zhao Changnong.
"Oh, what do you need me to do?" Zhao Changnong indicated that there was no need to be polite.
Qiao Xuan pretended to ponder for a while before saying solemnly,""First, please don't reveal my background to the outside world, lest that horned bandit finds out. Second, please don't call me half-prince consort anymore. Be careful that others find out about my background and cause unnecessary trouble.”
"Oh…! Then what do you want to be called?" Zhao Changnong's expression was calm, as if he had tacitly agreed to address him as " brother ".
"I remember that this manservant is called Qiao Xuan, right?”
Qiao Xuan frowned and asked. Seeing Zhao Changnong nod, he continued,"" Since I've taken over this person's body, then I'll still be called Qiao Xuan. Firstly, I won't expose my origins. Secondly, I can confuse your old thief slave. If that old thief slave sees this manservant come back to life, will his expression be very interesting? I'm looking forward to this scene now.”
Seeing this kid's imagination run wild, Zhao Changnong thought to himself,""Forget about your name being Qiao Xuan, it doesn't matter even if you're called a cat or a dog. Even if this old thief slave ran away long ago, how can I bring you to deal with this thief?”After hesitating for a while, he came up with an idea and suppressed this matter in his heart.
"Half…Oh, I changed it. Then I'll call you Young Master Qiao.”Zhao Changnong said after thinking about it.
He suddenly remembered that he had already changed his name, so he opened his mouth again to confirm. Seeing that the kid nodded slightly, he asked again,"Young Master Qiao, what else do you need my Martial Emperor Zhao's Mansion for?”
"I wonder if your Martial Emperor Patriarch has replied. Is your Patriarch willing to help our Sky Burial Abyssal Kingdom?”Qiao Xuan asked respectfully, putting on an extremely humble appearance.
At this moment, Zhao Changnong's expression was solemn as he replied solemnly,""My family's Patriarch can help. As long as your Emperor of the Dead Zang Kong can really subdue this demon, my Zhao Martial Emperor's Estate will definitely do our best to help.”
"Oh, that's great!"
Qiao Xuan hurriedly stood up and bowed respectfully. However, he secretly cursed the cunning old monsters in his heart. He knew that these old monsters had become smart and were only willing to do things that would add to the icing on the cake. They would never be willing to send goose feathers from thousands of miles away. However, he still had to put on a show.
"Young Master Qiao, you don't have to be so polite!" Zhao Changnong said with a smile. Since we've already had breakfast, let's go!”
Before he could finish his sentence, Zhao Changnong released his divine power and gently lifted Qiao Xuan up, guiding him out of the Heavenly Feast Pavilion.
Seeing that they were flying north, Qiao Xuan hurriedly asked,""Where are we going?"
Zhao Changnong smiled mysteriously and replied with narrowed eyes,""Let's go to a place where we can talk and laugh.”After saying this, he smiled and didn't say anything.
Looking at her sneaky smile, Qiao Xuan thought to himself,""What's there to say! " Isn't it just that kind of place? I'm pretending to be the Prince Consort of the Netherworld Kingdom. I've been to all sorts of romantic occasions. Don't think that it's so easy to win me over and corrupt me. Although I've never been to such places, I've heard Niu Meng talk about it a lot. I can't be afraid of stage fright, lest you see any flaws."”Then, he gave her a knowing look.
At this moment, Zhao Changnong was still silently observing Qiao Xuan. He did not completely lower his guard against this person just because of the Martial Emperor Ancestor's instructions. However, when he saw the look in this kid's eyes, Zhao Changnong was completely confused. He thought to himself, Why is this kid looking at me like that? This kid is so strange.
The two of them flew north for a while more before Qiao Xuan saw a fragrant mist lingering in front of them. The smoke was dense, and the humidity was warm.
Zhao Changnong chased after the smoke and led Qiao Xuan down slowly. It was only when they stood on the broken jade path that Qiao Xuan reluctantly woke up from his dream-like state.
He saw that in the middle of the mountains and fog, there were many tall bamboos. They seemed to be airtight, but there was a fragrance that was refreshing. What was even more strange was that there were two rows of green bamboos that formed a winding moon-shaped path.
The two of them walked along this path, one in front and one behind. After going up and down the jade steps and passing through many ancient caves, they finally arrived at the mysterious and elegant Qing Yi Ya Yuan.
Qiao Xuan raised his head and looked at the plain board."Such an elegant place has actually become a place for the Martial Emperor Zhao's Mansion to hide evil. Sigh…!”He really shook his head and sighed.
Moreover, there were attendants standing on both sides of the gate. When they saw the Great Elder arrive, they hurriedly lowered their steps and bowed to welcome him.
Zhao Changnong ignored these servants and walked inside with ease. After bypassing a large area of fake mountains and strange rocks, as well as beautiful parasol trees and green bamboos, he entered the gorgeous hall. Then, he turned around and sat on the main seat, indicating for Qiao Xuan to sit wherever he wanted.
Qiao Xuan looked around and sat on the bamboo chair to Zhao Changnong's left. The attendant quickly stepped forward and bowed to obey. Zhao Changnong ordered,""According to the past, there's no need to be extravagant."
"Yo! It seemed that this old man often came here. He was really bad!”Qiao Xuan couldn't help but curse inwardly, deeply despising this Zhao Changnong.
The waiter hurriedly accepted the order and walked inside. Soon, a delicate and pretty child served tea. The two of them drank the tea and chatted enthusiastically.
Suddenly, sweet laughter sounded from outside. It seemed to come from the rockery and strange rocks, but it also seemed to come from the beautiful parasol trees and green bamboos. Then, it was followed by the pleasant and moving sound of swallows.
This valiant and valiant person shouted,"I'm really exhausted! I woke up so early today. I need to relax.”
"Yes, yes," said the pretty girl with a charming smile. Our Feng 'er is cultivating at the fourth watch. Who is she doing this for? Everyone, who is this for?”
After that, she said," Bad sister, I'll rip your mouth off." The people outside started laughing and laughing.
Listening to the soft laughter of the people in the courtyard, Qiao Xuan felt his heart itch.
