The Marriage of an Esteemed Supreme Healer, a Noble Ruler



Lady Shi'er gasped and looked at the small Wind-Stepping Tiger in her arms with more heart ache. "How did that happen?"

Hua Shuangshuang paused and was hesitant with his words. After a moment, he didn't directly answer her question and said, "Perhaps it met with some accident. I saw that it was still young, so I brought it back."

It had always been very easy for him to be close with all kinds of fiends, and he had raised many of them over the years, so Lady Shi'er and the rest didn't pay more attention to it.

However, Chu Liuyue took another look at that Wind-Stepping Tiger in deep thought. This is clearly a fiend of Fantasy Divine Palace. If I haven't recalled wrongly, all the fiends here are raised on that fiend mountain, and Second Deity is in charge of it. Of course, the fiend mountain is completely open, and anybody can go, but they can't casually take fiends away—unless the cultivator has formed an agreement with the fiend.

It was expected that Hua Shuangshuang liked to go to the fiend mountain, but Chu Liuyue did not expect him to bring one back.

Hearing what he said, it seemed like there was an underlying reason.

Chu Liuyue didn't ask him about it in detail as she laughed and said, "Let's all go in. Cen Yi and the rest are also here."

…

The moment they walked in, they indeed saw Cen Yi walking out from the house.

Lady Shiyi and her sister saw him and were immediately elated.

Cen Yi's expression was warm for once.

The group of them were very lively when they were together.

Chu Liuyue looked around and did not see Rong Xiu.

Upon seeing this, Cen Yi immediately said, "Master, His Grace is in seclusion."

Chu Liuyue was dazed. She had known Rong Xiu for so many years but rarely heard him going into seclusion.

"I understand."

She looked at Wu Yao. "Let's go in to talk."

…

"Mirror?" In the room, after hearing Wu Yao's description, Chu Liuyue's heart skipped a beat.

Wu Yao nodded. "Before I came, not only did the mirror not disappear, but it even seemed to become clearer and more detailed as time passed."

Chu Liuyue slowly clenched her hands. "Did anything appear on that mirror? Like… someone's shadow?"

"Not really." Wu Yao shook his head. "Yu Jiu and I looked after it day and night. That mirror glowed brightly, and it was hard to look at it directly, let alone see someone's shadow or figure."

Chu Liuyue fell silent for a moment and did not know what to feel. It seems like what I saw before wasn't an illusion; there is indeed a mirror in that Gate Realm. But for some reason, that mirror doesn't show Rong Xiu or my figure. Or perhaps… only such a scene will appear when the both of us stand in front of it?

Chu Liuyue entered deep thought.

Every time she thought about the scene that day, she would feel faintly uneasy. The face reflected in that mirror was clearly one that she was most familiar with, but she found it unfamiliar for some reason.

And Rong Xiu…

"Master? Master?" After Wu Yao finished talking, he saw that Chu Liuyue did not respond. Thus he couldn't help but raise his voice and call her.

Wu Yao sized up her expression and asked, "Master, how do you think… we should deal with this?"

"Let's just wait and see." Chu Liuyue knocked against the table. Since Wu Yao and the rest have prepared everything, and no other situation has occurred, we can relax slightly for now.

"Report again when that mirror has strange occurrences."

This matter was clearly not under their control, so the only thing they could do now was: Wait!

Wu Yao was rather surprised, but seeing that Chu Liuyue had made up her mind, he acknowledged her order. "OK."

…

Chu Liuyue came to the yard again and saw Hua Shuangshuang and the rest still playing with the small Wind-Stepping Tiger in the yard.

"Shuangshuang, come over for a while."

Once Hua Shuangshuang heard this, he immediately walked over. "Master."

Chu Liuyue lifted her chin. "What exactly is going on with that Wind-Stepping Tiger?"

Hesitation instantly surfaced on Hua Shuangshuang's face. After a moment, he explained, "This matter… is all my fault."

Chu Liuyue looked at him.

Hua Shuangshuang sighed. "Previously, I went to the fiend mountain and saw a Wind-Stepping Tiger with a cub. I instantly liked it and played with it for a while. Later on, the Wind-Stepping Tiger wanted to follow me, but I curtly rejected it."

Chu Liuyue nodded.

Hua Shuangshuang naturally had his own considerations for doing this—casually bringing a fiend out of the fiend mountain was clearly against the rules. It would cause trouble if one was not careful.

"In the end, when I went over, I saw that the Wind-Stepping Tiger had been killed…"

ƥandasnovel·ƈom Chu Liuyue's glabella moved. "Was… killed by someone?"

Hua Shuangshuang nodded.

Chu Liuyue kept quiet for a moment. Other than the Second Deity, Yu Qian, nobody would dare to take action in the fiend mountain.

"Why did he do that?"

The fiend mountain is under his control. Logically speaking, all these fiends should listen to him and he has no reason to do that.

"Perhaps it's because…" Hua Shuangshuang paused. "Actually, I'm not too sure either. But after that Wind-Stepping Tiger died, all its teeth were plucked out."

Chu Liuyue knitted her brows tightly. "You're saying that… the Wind-Stepping Tiger was possibly killed because it bit Yu Qian, so—wait, there's indeed a wound on Yu Qian's hand!"

When she entered the Fantasy Divine Hall and talked to Yu Qian earlier, she unintentionally noticed that there were faint bite marks on Yu Qian's hand. However, she did not pay much attention to it back then.

Thinking about it now… perhaps it was really because of this Wind-Stepping Tiger?

Chu Liuyue softly muttered, "But it shouldn't be… Isn't he in charge of the fiend mountain? Why would that Wind-Stepping Tiger attack him?"
