"Honored guest, please do not be offended."
The woman had long red hair tied in a long ponytail, the crimson ends giving her a lazy and casual look.
"We've met twice before, but we haven't had a proper conversation. Changli is just curious about what kind of person the husband my disciple is looking for is."
Chang Li's voice is naturally gentle and charming, and her tone is sincere.
"So, what kind of person do you think I am?"
"Unfathomable."
Adam smiled and suddenly noticed that Anke had reappeared by the roadside.
"Encore!"
"Yes, it's an encore!"
The little girl in pink didn't recognize the rascal who had teased her a few hours earlier, and walked up to him with an innocent look on her face.
"Uncle, do you know Anke?"
uncle?
Adam took out a bag of dragon beard candy that the stargazer had given him: "If you call me brother, this is for you."
"Thank you brother!"
This kid is such a glutton.
"Anke, you're a guest of the Black Coast, right? Do you know the Wanderers?"
"Yes, I know him!"
"She should come looking for me. Tell her that I went to Chengxiao Mountain. If she doesn't see me within a month, it means I have left this world. Tell her not to worry about me."
"Okay, Anke got it!"
After traveling a short distance, Adam arrived at Longshan Ferry, preparing to take a boat to the depths of the southeastern sea area of Jinzhou.
Since this trip is specifically to explore Changli, there's no rush to get there.
The sea is shrouded in mist.
A small boat with a black awning slowly sailed out of the ferry dock.
Because the spell was set in advance, there was no boatman to row or steer the boat; it moved on its own, and the two people on board chatted idly.
"According to the residents of Hongzhen who have settled in Jinzhou, the Lord of the Year has been frequently entering the Sleeping Dragon Court to sleep several months ago, which must mean that something very serious has happened. If I am not mistaken, Xi is helping the Lord of the Year to deal with it."
No, she's just trying to lure you over there, giving me the opportunity to have sex with you.
"Changli, do you know what the Sleeping Dragon Court is?"
Before Changli could answer, Adam said, "You should know that the protagonist of this planet is not a native creature of this planet. When it landed, it was accompanied by a high-tech escape pod, which was called the Sleeping Dragon Court by the people back then."
"Oh, a life pod."
Changli's beautiful eyes gleamed with a strange light as she asked in a gentle voice, "Honored guest, you actually know such ancient secrets. Could it be that you, like the Lord of the Year, come from the stars?"
Changli had already guessed about this.
First, Adam and the wanderer addressed each other as brother and sister!
The Wanderer is incredibly mysterious. There are bizarre records about her even before the establishment of the state of Jinzhou. In later historical records, she has appeared in different identities. She is definitely not an ordinary person!
The Wanderer is definitely an old guy!
How could her brother be as young as he looks?
Jinxi, that tender young grass, has been gnawed by an old cow!
"I come from the stars? Why would you think that? Couldn't I be a guardian of an ancient civilization?"
"Ancient civilization..."
"Perhaps, both the Wanderer and I are Wallfacers of an ancient civilization, residing in this world for millennia, silently protecting the development of a new civilization... What do you think of this novel's premise?"
He just made it up on the spot.
However, the more Changli thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
The beautiful woman, as lovely as a phoenix, muttered to herself, her expression blank: "This doesn't seem like something out of a novel..."
Her dazed look, with her slightly open mouth and blank expression, was quite adorable.
Adam enjoyed it.
He couldn't resist reaching out and pinching her cheek.
Chapter 139 My brother is definitely going to beat me until I kneel down...
She was pinched on the cheek by her disciple's husband.
The mature beauty, resembling a phoenix, was stunned.
She wanted to rebuke Deng Tu Zi, but then she remembered his other identity as someone closely connected to the wanderers, so she swallowed her words of rebuke.
Her graceful, peach-like body retreated silently.
"Mr. Adam, please have some self-respect."
Changli wasn't angry; he simply suppressed the faint smile that always graced his face.
His tone was distant, coupled with a somewhat aloof expression.
This fiery phoenix, so adept at navigating the complexities of officialdom, suddenly seemed to possess an ethereal, otherworldly quality.
Yes, it has an ethereal quality.
I wonder if she'll find it too sweet.
Adam was even more looking forward to the scene of the dragon and phoenix in bed together, but now he had to apologize for his reckless behavior just now.
People can't help themselves when they see beautiful things.
Chang Li nodded slightly: "Thank you for your praise, but please don't forget that you are Jin Xi's husband. Please be restrained in front of other women. This is very necessary to maintain a harmonious relationship between you and your husband."
"Been taught a lesson."
Seeing his dismissive and perfunctory attitude.
Chang Li's expression turned worried.
Her disciple's temperament was typically gentle on the outside but firm on the inside. Although she was willing to compromise on matters of interest, Jinxi was unlikely to compromise on matters of the heart. She was the type who would rather die than divorce.
But her husband... seems to be a womanizer.
Are these two really a good match?
A hint of sorrow appeared on Chang Li's beautiful face.
Why does Miss Changli look so worried?
Changli naturally wouldn't openly express her concern for their married life. She took out a golden dragon scale: "Before going to Chengxiao Mountain, Jinxi's body developed a strange phenomenon of golden dragon scales. I don't know where she obtained power surpassing that of the Lord of the Year, but if she still resonates with the Lord of the Year, this scale means that her abilities have exceeded their limits..."
Resonance overclocking is equivalent to going into a state of demonic possession in martial arts novels.
"She has stayed on Mount Chengxiao for too long, and for the past few days, the dragon's roar on Mount Chengxiao has shaken the heavens and shocked three thousand miles! All these signs indicate that Jinxi's current situation is worrying. She herself seems to have foreseen this, so before leaving, in addition to the seal of the Prime Minister, she also gave me this scale to slowly comprehend."
Changli handed the scale to Adam: "There are only two lines of poetry on it. I feel there should be two more lines, but I can't see them at all."
"Let me take a look."
Adam took the dragon scale that still retained Changli's body heat, and after glancing at it, his brows twitched involuntarily.
"A golden carp is no ordinary fish; once it encounters wind and clouds, it transforms into a dragon..."
"This must refer to her seclusion during this trip. When she emerges, she will ascend to heaven in one step, transforming from a mortal into a divine dragon. My disciple has great ambition, but I always feel that these two lines of poetry are not quite enough."
That's true.
Adam could see the last two sentences that Changli could not see.
—The dragon's roar in the heavens shook the world, and the auspicious dragon and phoenix were turned red.
Good, good, good, Xixi's limerick is really well written.
"You can understand?"
"Well, her writing is truly outstanding. I can only say that our Xixi is exceptionally talented in writing."
As they were talking, Chengxiao Mountain appeared before them.
Its shape is very peculiar; from a distance, it looks like the upper body of a dragon, stretching out towards the southeast.
Even from a distance, the dragon shape is remarkably lifelike.
Once ashore, the two crossed the Gap Beach and were about to head up the mountain along the road from Rainbow Town when Adam stopped.
"You go to the top of the mountain and wait for me. I've found an interesting place. I'll go ahead first."
He tore open space in front of Chang Li and teleported to the entrance of an ordinary cave.
At the entrance to the cave is a broken stone table.
Adam blew a breath, and the broken stone table reversed the flow of time, transforming into a jade-colored chessboard. As the chessboard was repaired, a Sonora, existing between reality and illusion, gradually appeared.
Two blurry figures were talking.
One of them was a wanderer, and the other was an old man with a hunched back.
Two figures are having a conversation upstream in time.
"What a brilliant move! It has both territory and influence on the outside, truly a brilliant move, a remarkable one!"
That was the old man's voice.
Adam remembered the game's storyline; he was Changli's master, Xuanmiao Zhenren.
"I never expected to be able to play such a delightful game of chess here in Chengxiao Mountain. Fellow Daoist, you may look young, but you are truly unfathomable!"
The two phantoms disappeared.
But then two other phantoms appeared.
It was still the same wanderer and the mysterious immortal; it was still the old man speaking, while A-Piao pretended to be mute.
"It has been decades since we last met, and you still look the same... I dare not accept the title of 'senior'; it should be this old man who calls you 'senior'!"
"Now that the state is about to be established, and you have achieved great fame and success, why do you choose to retire?"
"It seems I've said too much. If you're not in a hurry to leave Jinzhou, how about we play another game?"
Adam gazed intently at the wanderer's phantom image with a deep, unfathomable look.
Through the illusory image, he gazed intently at the girl from hundreds of years ago, his gaze heavy and tender, like the male protagonist in some melodramatic story of a man chasing after his wife.
A playful glint appeared in his eyes.
……
Hundreds of years before the establishment of Jinzhou, a black-haired girl playing chess with the immortal Xuanmiao suddenly froze.
"?"
In Xuanmiao Zhenren's eyes, the girl, who had always been a strategist and composed, was now like a dog whose tail had been stepped on, jumping up from her seat!
The old man looked at her in surprise: "Fellow Daoist, what's the matter that's causing your panic?"
"This is bad, this is bad! Someone from the future is pulling at time here! They want to drag time here to their own point in time!"
"What!?"
Master Xuanmiao was like an old cat stung by a wasp, utterly horrified: "Our Xuanmiao sect has always lived in seclusion, and for thousands of years we have placed the world on a chessboard, influencing the rise and fall of this world. But we never knew that there could be someone in the world with such great supernatural powers?"
"Stop fucking bragging!"
The wanderer shouted and cursed in a fit of anger.
She suddenly recognized that heavy gaze, and said in a panicked voice, "It's my brother!"
When Ya first descended into this world, he could only implant the false memory that "the wanderer has an older brother" into the memories of the wanderer himself and related characters. At that time, he was still a baby god.
He has now officially entered childhood.
He has been able to subtly transform this false sibling relationship into a real one.
