Daqian Night Emperor

Chapter 286 Xiao Qi's comfort method
If Zhao Nishang hadn't reminded him, Zhao Qi'an would have almost forgotten the important matter he came to her for today.

Zhao Nishang didn't understand, but she still took out two brocade bags from her sleeves and handed them to Zhao Qian'an: "Adoptive father, you also understand my skill of changing my appearance. Why do I need this human skin? I haven't achieved the heavenly realm yet. I'm afraid this human skin disguise is useless to a master."

Her ability to change her appearance like that comes from her innate magical power - the Thousand Illusions Holy Body.

Zhao Qi'an can actually do everything Zhao Nishang can do because he can borrow Zhao Nishang's fate.

Zhao Nishang knew this.

It was precisely because she knew this that Zhao Nishang felt strange that Zhao Qi'an asked her for "human skin".

This "human skin" is not an ordinary disguise prop. It carries the magical power of her "Thousand Illusions Holy Body" and possesses some of the effects of the "Thousand Illusions Holy Body".

However, Zhao Nishang is still only at the fifth level of Zhoutian realm, and the "disguise human skin" she created is not very effective. It is almost useless to the strong people above the level of heavenly beings, and they can tell something is wrong at a glance.

But for Zhao Qian, it was enough.

He accepted the two brocade bags containing the "disguise skin" handed to him by Zhao Nishang and said, "It's enough. It can cover it up."

Zhao Nishang asked in confusion: "Who wants it?"

Zhao Qi'an said helplessly: "Who else could it be? It's for Ah Chou."

Zhao Nishang didn't know that the ugly slave had turned into a "black egg". She was just wondering in her heart that it was not the first day that the ugly maid had been with her adoptive father, so why did her adoptive father think she was ugly today?
……

After coming out of the west market, Zhao Qi'an returned to the princess's mansion.

As soon as he entered his yard, he saw a shiny black giant carrying stones.

The huge rock that weighed a thousand pounds seemed light as a feather in her hands, and she carried it on her shoulders as if she was strolling in the garden.

When the ugly slave saw Zhao Qian'an coming back, he grinned, revealing a row of bright white and neat teeth: "Master, you are back."

As she greeted them, she bent down and put the stone on her shoulder on the ground. With a bang, the earth shook and a cloud of dust was stirred up.

Zhao Qian'an watched this scene with empty eyes. After Chou Nu's breakthrough, her strength was truly beyond imagination.

It is no exaggeration to say that based on this strength alone, most warriors in the realm of supernatural powers are probably not as good as her!

Zhao Qi'an asked, "What are you doing?"

"Build a kitchen."

The ugly slave had an expression that said "you can't even tell this" and then pointed to the kitchen which had already taken shape and said proudly: "Look, this is what I have achieved in a day."

The earthen stove she had built in the yard was accidentally damaged, so Zhao Qi'an gave her some money and asked her to hire workers to build a kitchen.

Unexpectedly, no workers were hired, and the ugly slave rolled up her sleeves and did the work herself. The money saved naturally went into her own pocket.

Her money-loving nature is just like that in her nature. It is written in her fate and cannot be changed. So Zhao Qi'an just turned a blind eye to it.

However, seeing that she was in a good mood, Zhao Qi'an joked, "You were crying in your room yesterday, why are you in a good mood today?"

The ugly slave felt embarrassed by what he said and smiled shyly: "This is all thanks to Miss Seven."

"Little Seven?"

Zhao Qinan was immediately puzzled. Xiaoqi had always been timid. When she saw strangers other than her brothers and sisters and herself, she couldn't even speak complete sentences. How could she comfort others?

He suddenly became curious and asked, "How did Xiao Qi comfort you? What did he say to you?"

The ugly slave scratched his head and said, "She didn't say anything. Miss Seven wanted to comfort me, but her voice was too soft and I couldn't hear her clearly."

"Then how did you..."

"I just saw that Miss Seven was in such a state, but she was still trying hard to live. My actions are nothing."

Zhao Qi’an: “…”

Wow, this is the way to comfort someone?
At this time, Chou Nu seemed to remember something and said to Zhao Qi'an: "Oh, by the way, I don't know what Miss Seven said, but she started crying while talking. Master, why don't you go and comfort her?" Zhao Qi'an: "..."

You want to comfort others, but end up finding yourself even more miserable?

Chounu is a heartless person, but Xiaoqi is really miserable.

Zhao Qi'an didn't know what to say, so he sighed and said to the ugly slave, "I brought you some good things, come with me into the house."

……

"Like this...on the skin."

Inside the ear chamber, Zhao Qian'an attached a piece of human skin as thin as a cicada's wing to the ugly slave's arm.

The ugly slave only felt a chill on her arm. The piece of human skin merged into her skin right under her eyes, making her originally dark skin gradually become similar to the skin color of an ordinary person.

She was delighted: "What a treasure this is!"

Zhao Qi'an said, "I got it from Nichang. It can change your appearance. But if I use it on you, it can only make your skin whiter. And you are too big. I need to use two human skins."

When Chou Nu heard him say that, he flinched a little: "Real human skin?"

"Just treat it as fake."

"If you say that, how can I pretend to be fake?!"

Zhao Qi'an didn't have time to explain her hypocrisy, and put two magic bags in her hands: "Here are the things, and you just saw the method. When I go out, you can stick them on yourself. At least you won't be a black coal ball."

“It doesn’t seem to be getting any better.”

The ugly slave grumbled, but still honestly put away the two sachets.

Zhao Qi'an looked around the ear chamber. The space in the ear chamber was originally small, and now that Chou Nu was almost three meters tall and as big as a Behemoth, the ear chamber seemed particularly crowded.

The bed that she could barely sleep in before, now has to protrude from her knees down when she sleeps at night.

"After a few days, when Xiao Qi leaves, you can move to the west wing."

Zhao Qian thought about it and said something to the ugly slave.

The ugly slave asked in surprise: "Where is Miss Seven going?"

Zhao Qi'an shook his head: "It has not been decided yet, let's talk about it later."

The reason why Zhao Wuwen left Yangshengtang this time was that Zhao Qi'an planned to let her become a disciple of the imperial master.

Now that the birthday banquet is over, it is time to take Zhao Wuwen to meet the imperial teacher.

……

At the same time, on the top floor of the Astronomical Observatory’s headquarters.

There is one more guest here today.

There was also a low table on the floor covered with a wool blanket.

Shuiyuexian sat on the ground, holding a teapot in her hand. She poured the hot tea from the pot into the cup, and immediately the room was filled with the fragrance of tea.

She handed the cup to the other side and said, "Try it."

Opposite her, Donghua Sword Immortal was kneeling on a cushion. He took the teacup and smelled it. He asked in surprise, "Enlightenment tea?"

Shui Yuexian nodded slightly, indicating that he should have some tea.

But Donghua Sword Immortal put the cup on the low table and said, "I am about to die, so there is no need for me to drink such good tea. It would be a waste if I drink it."
