162: Chapter 162 Grown Up?

Back in Spirit City, seeing Bi Ji had followed them, Ye Yuaner frowned slightly: "Haven't you already completed your mission?"

Not yet, the child hasn't been born.

Bi Ji thought to herself, but said aloud: "This is the Lord's command!"

Hearing "Lord," Ye Yuaner was somewhat wary; the other party was a legendary Divinity-level powerhouse.

Bibi Dong thought about how this Lord of hers would have a cooperative relationship with Su Wen in the future, so she didn't question it.

Given Bi Ji's performance in the Star Dou Great Forest, she still had some trust in her.

Bibi Dong walked straight toward the Supreme Pontiff Palace; next, there would be many matters to handle.

Especially the call for the Spirit Masters abroad this time.

Some people did not obey the command.

Among these Spirit Masters, there were even quite a few Spirit Douluos.

For example, Meng Shenji and several others who went to the Heaven Dou Empire.

They did not obey the command to return!

On this side, Su Wen parted ways with Ye Yuaner and took Bi Ji back to the Holy Sons Palace.

Unsurprisingly, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and Hu Liena were all here.

Su Wen's courtyard had already become their exclusive Soul Dueling Arena.

Whether Su Wen was there or not, they would show up on time.

Tian Yue was nowhere to be seen!

Su Wen felt quite surprised.

"A-Wen!"

"Senior Brother!"

The three girls immediately came forward, each showing a smile upon seeing Su Wen's return.

They knew nothing could go wrong; the top powerhouses of Spirit Hall had all gone there.

If Spirit Hall couldn't solve it, then this continent would no longer be led by Spirit Masters, and humanity would lose its right to freedom.

Su Wen greeted them and briefly recounted the events in the Star Dou Great Forest.

He then curiously asked: "Where's Tian Yue?"

"She said a friend came to visit. She was being quite mysterious about it; I asked her who it was, but she wouldn't say!"

Dugu Yan couldn't help but complain, and Hu Liena nodded in agreement: "Exactly, she even warned us not to follow her secretly, as if we even cared, hmph!"

Ye Lingling pursed her lips and smiled: "That friend of hers is a woman; she should be on the streets of Spirit City right now!"

Qian Renxue, then!

Su Wen thought so; Tian Yue and Qian Renxue were likely good best friends.

He wondered if Tian Yue would speak ill of him?

Qian Renxue might, too!

At this moment in Spirit City, Tian Yue, who was accompanying Qian Renxue shopping, couldn't help but sneeze.

She rubbed her nose: "Boss must be talking bad about me again!"

"Yueer, why do you always call him Boss?"

Qian Renxue was wearing a platinum-colored dress, her temperament noble and cold.

Her skin was delicate and fair, with a moist luster.

Her long golden hair was draped over her back.

Standing on the street, many people turned their heads because of her appearance.

Qian Renxue didn't care; instead, she felt incredibly relaxed.

Only when dressed in women's clothing could she feel her true existence.

Hearing Tian Yue's nonsensical words, she frowned slightly, very displeased with Tian Yue's way of addressing that man.

Tian Yue was, after all, the granddaughter of the Second Consecrator; calling a peer "Big Brother" was truly unrefined and even a self-demotion.

"But he's the Big Brother I've acknowledged!"

Tian Yue didn't feel anything was wrong; she had been calling him that for years.

Asking her to change it now, she really couldn't.

"You are Grandpa Golden Crocodile's granddaughter, and you have talent even greater than your grandfather's. You will surely become a Limit powerhouse in the future. He is just that woman's Disciple..."

When Qian Renxue mentioned Bibi Dong, her slender fingers subconsciously clenched.

"But without Boss, I wouldn't be who I am today!"

"This..."

Qian Renxue was speechless for a moment.

She knew how weak Tian Yue used to be.

Compared to her current state, she was a completely different person.

She thought of the eight-petal immortal orchid from when it was presented to her.

She had been disdainful.

Only after consuming it did she realize how special the Immortal Plant was.

It accelerated her Cultivation speed and even pulled her Aptitude up a bit more.

But thinking of that bastard spanking her so much...

Qian Renxue couldn't feel any gratitude toward him.

Tian Yue took a big bite of the delicious food in her hand: "Boss is actually quite good, he just likes to hit me."

Qian Renxue was speechless: "Listen to what you're saying!"

Tian Yue swallowed the food and sheepishly stuck out her tongue: "I can't blame Boss; it's my behavior that makes his hands itch!"

"Just stop explaining!" Qian Renxue rubbed her forehead: "I don't want to mention that bastard!"

Tian Yue peeked at her, thinking of how the elegantly dressed Qian Renxue had been placed on a rock.

Her face turned slightly red.

Boss is so brave!

"Whatever you do, don't tell Su Wen about my matters."

Qian Renxue thought of something and suddenly gave a serious warning.

"I know, my lips are sealed!"

Tian Yue patted her chest, her face very serious.

She turned to look at a shop: "Sister Xue'er, let's go over there. I'll bring some grilled fish back for Boss; he should be back soon..."

...An hour later, Tian Yue walked into the courtyard with great enthusiasm.

"Sisters, I, Tian Yue, am back!"

Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and Hu Liena were sitting with Su Wen.

They were all quietly listening to the events of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Seeing Tian Yue approach, they gave her a flat glance and ignored her.

Despite her sisters' "fiery enthusiasm," Tian Yue unconcernedly approached Su Wen: "Boss, you came back so fast! I thought it would take a bit longer."

Tian Yue said as she pulled out the grilled fish she bought: "Boss, you're in luck, this place's food is delicious... Hmph, you guys can eat too, heehee. What were you talking about?"

"Little Yueer, at least you have a conscience, knowing to bring us something."

Dugu Yan proactively moved over to make space, and Tian Yue unceremoniously squeezed into the middle.

"Yueer, where's that friend of yours? Do I know her? Why didn't you invite her over?"

Su Wen asked.

"She left!"

Tian Yue's eyes darted around, and she spoke guiltily: "Boss, I'll pick out the fish bones for you. You must eat it while it's hot!"

Seeing her like that, Su Wen didn't press further. When news of the Spirit Master Legion's return spread, Qian Renxue would likely have to go back to report to Emperor Xue Ye.

He should also plan for the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud; that thing was a key item to open the Seagod Nine Trials.

No matter what god he became in the future, or if he could even become a god, keeping a Sea God God Position would at least be a fallback.

"Aunt Ye should also take her second Immortal Plant!"

Six years had passed since the last Immortal Plant; the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower had long been completely consumed.

After finishing the grilled fish, Su Wen prepared to head to the Elder Palace.

"Boss, where are you going again?"

Tian Yue's hands were covered in oil as she waved them in front of Su Wen.

Indicating for him to look at the fruits of her labor.

Su Wen flicked her forehead: "Go wash your hands, don't touch everything!"

"Darn Boss!"

Tian Yue walked toward her room indignantly.

"How did I not notice before that Tian Yue is so clingy!"

Hu Liena watched Su Wen leave the courtyard and couldn't help but show a gloating expression.

"Yeah!"

Dugu Yan also chuckled.

"Um, haven't you noticed that Tian Yue has also grown up?"

Ye Lingling didn't laugh; her face was only filled with solemnity.

"Grown up?"

Hu Liena and Dugu Yan were slightly stunned, suddenly realizing that Tian Yue was actually using this kind of excuse to get close to Su Wen!
