Xuanxia

Chapter 898 Determination
"Ghostly energy... Styx Valley..."

There was a flash of surprise in Huo Yaer's eyes, but it was soon replaced by relief.

"Master Zuling, you really know everything."

She lowered her head slightly: "When do you want to leave?"

"Um……"

Fu Qingzhou glanced around.

The ancestral temple was destroyed in the war, Zuleiha and others were covered with scars, and even Huoyar had suffered many injuries in the previous battle.

"You need to rest."

He said slowly: "I also need time to slowly recover my strength... This body is still too weak."

Huo Yaer bowed his head again: "As you wish."

"There's no need to rush to announce my return."

Fu Qingzhou added: "This world has changed a lot... I need time to adapt."

"Of course." Huo Yaer lowered his head even more: "Before your approval, no information will be leaked except for the people in the Ancestral Hall today."

"Yes." Fu Qingzhou nodded: "Arrange a place for me to live."

For the next half hour, he truly enjoyed the treatment like an emperor.

Even though he said "there's no need to publicize my return", there are still quite a few people staying in the Ancestral Temple today.

For them, today is the most shocking and brightest day!
What was the significance of the previous intrusion of those Yan people?
The ancestor spirit that their clan had worshipped for thousands of years actually returned!
Not only did the Great Shaman bow his head in respect to him, he even actually merged with the Ancestral Eye!
Therefore, Fu Qingzhou was welcomed into the largest bedroom behind the Ancestral Hall in the highest standard.

This palace originally belonged to no one. Even Huoyar was not qualified to live in it. It belonged to "God". In the words of the Northern Barbarians, this was prepared for the arrival of their ancestors one day.

To put it in more understandable terms, this is like an offering placed before the altar.

Therefore, this bedroom has always been cleaned, it is spotlessly clean, and... it is ridiculously large!
Fu Qingzhou even suspected that even if Zhao Yuan was the emperor, he would not live as well as he did here...

Zulayha even wanted to find seventy girls to serve him in bathing and changing clothes, but he refused.

then……

“No wonder you were able to release such pure and majestic ancestral spiritual power.”

Zuleiha knelt down in front of Fu Qingzhou in fear and said in a trembling voice: "I am an unworthy descendant, Zuleiha. I was disrespectful to you before, and now I have made you unhappy again. Please punish me, ancestor spirit!"

"I am not dissatisfied, nor do I care about your ignorance."

Fu Qingzhou said calmly: "I just don't like ordinary people touching my body... Step back and let Ayiguli come in."

"what?"

Zulaiha was stunned at first, then realized something, quickly responded with a yes, and hurriedly left.

Only when there was no one here did Fu Qingzhou look around the huge bathing pool.

The bathtub is like a swimming pool, but the water in it is not even hot water, but milk!

When many tribes in the Northern Barbarians were starving and couldn't even get food, the Ancestral Hall was using enough milk to feed hundreds of people for bathing...

He sat in a chair next to the bathtub and shrugged his nose.

Very fragrant and rich, this is not just milk, but extremely good milk.

"Sure enough, no matter where you are, the gap between rich and poor is an indelible one."

Fu Qingzhou closed his eyes.

At this time, the door of the bathhouse was pushed open and Aiguli walked in somewhat awkwardly.

She moved carefully, her eyes were first attracted by the pool of milk, her face showed obvious shock and astonishment, but she quickly suppressed these expressions, slowly came to Fu Qingzhou's side, lowered her head, and did not dare to look at him.

"Who do you think I am?"

Fu Qingzhou suddenly asked.

Ayiguli was startled, then she said softly: "I... don't know."

"Just say what's on your mind. Don't be afraid of anything." Fu Qingzhou said again.

Ayiguli then raised her head and carefully looked at the profile of the person in front of her. For some reason, she felt that the "ancestor spirit" seemed different from when he was outside.

After a long silence, she finally spoke: "Even the Great Shaman said that you are an ancestral spirit...but I don't think you are."

"I don't know why they all kneel before you, as if... you are some kind of high and mighty god, but I don't feel that at all."

"You also said that you are from Yan country?"

"Yes... You asked me to take the fang of the ancestral bear to the ancestral temple, which attracted the Yan people to besiege the Great Shaman... At that time, I wondered if you really deceived me and wanted to use me to subvert the entire Yi Kingdom?"

"But for some reason, I still feel that you didn't lie to me."

"In my heart, you are still the Shaman who saved our tribe."

Fu Qingzhou still had his eyes closed, but when he heard the last sentence, he suddenly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.

"Ayiguli."

He opened his eyes, glanced at the girl beside him, and asked, "Do you remember what I asked you before leaving the Flying Bear Tribe?"

Aiguli was stunned again.

This time, she was very sure that the person in front of her was not an ancestral spirit at all!
Her heart began to beat wildly, but she suppressed her anxiety and slowly replied, "You asked me if I was willing to sacrifice my life for you, and you also said... you wanted to use me to make a big gamble."

"good."

Fu Qingzhou looked at her and asked, "Now, I'm going to ask you again, are you willing to give your life for me?"

Ayiguli's pupils trembled.

This time, she didn't answer immediately, but bit her lip.

Fu Qingzhou smiled: "It seems that your answer just now was not so sincere."

"No, no!"

Ayiguli suddenly became anxious and said quickly: "I'm just worried..."

"Are you worried that I will harm the Yi Kingdom?" Fu Qingzhou asked with a smile.

Aiguli lowered her head and dared not speak any more.

But it was obvious that this was what she really thought.

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "What if I let you supervise the Khan of Yi Kingdom?"

"W-what?!"

Ayiguli's eyes widened instantly: "Me?!"

"That's you."

Fu Qingzhou said calmly: "Of course it is not appropriate for you to be the Great Khan of the Yi Kingdom, but if you were to be a supervisor and prevent the future Khan from acting recklessly, at least you could do it... not use so much milk to bathe people, right?"

"Of course not!" Ayiguli said heavily: "How many people can these things feed! How can... No, this is not the point! I am only at the third level of Wuqiao, and the Sand Scorpion Tribe is extremely weak. How can I control the Great Khan?!"

"hehe."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "So what? You have also seen their attitude towards me. I am their ancestral spirit. As my only maid, what's the problem with you supervising this country for me?"

"Don't even mention the Great Khan. Even if he is the Great Shaman, you should still scold him."

Aiguli looked at him in shock and couldn't say a word for a long time.

"I just want to ask you one question."

Fu Qingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly: "If you really become the supervisor of Yi Country, what would you do?"

"I……"

Ayiguli raised her head, her eyes showing a stubbornness that had not been seen for a long time, and she said softly: "I don't know how to manage a country yet, let alone how to supervise the Khan, but I know that no one can live like our tribe anymore!"

Fu Qingzhou smiled slightly.

"Okay."

He said, "Go out, don't tell anyone about our conversation here."
