Chapter 87 Birds Take Flight
Chapter 87 Birds Take Flight
The Feng family's villa, east courtyard.
That evening, a disciple guarding the courtyard delivered a letter, which turned out to be a letter from Jiang Ming to Shen Yao seeking peace.
The letter was sincere, and Jiang Ming was heartbroken that he had offended Fairy Shen and caused her to dislike him so much. He hoped to befriend Fairy Shen and asked her to understand his admiration and not to look down on him anymore.
Shen Yao felt nauseous at the sight.
It's hard to imagine that such a nauseatingly sentimental letter was written by Jiang Ming. Shen Yao strongly suspects that Jiang Ming had one of his followers write it for him.
It might have been written by the attendant who always accompanied him.
What was that attendant's name again? Oh, right, Wang Xianfan.
Shen Yao showed the letter to Feng Yu and Huo Die, and Huo Die frowned as he read it.
Huo Die finished reading it and handed it to Feng Yu.
Feng Yu crumpled the letter into a ball after reading only half of it and burned it with her fire elemental power.
Shen Yao knew all too well how difficult it was to appease someone who was jealous: "Yunhe, you know I hate him."
"Hmm." Feng Yu's expression was indifferent as she casually dusted off her hands. "I know."
Shen Yao: "Father, I will pretend to accept his goodwill and find out his next route. After we leave Qiwu City, we will guard outside the city and you will help me kill him."
"Well..." Huo Die looked troubled, glancing at his daughter and then at his son-in-law.
Shen Yao: "Father, just say what you want to say. There's no need to hide it from Feng Yu. He knows everything."
Huo Die: "Daughter, your father only has the strength of a Celestial Venerable now."
Shen Yao's eyes widened: "Is it difficult for a Celestial Venerable to kill a Celestial Saint?"
Huo Die: "That's not difficult, it's just a matter of raising your hand."
Shen Yao: "Then help me kill him."
Huo Die started looking at Feng Yu again. Just as Feng Yu was about to get up and take his leave, Shen Yao grabbed his arm and said, "You don't have to leave, Father. Just tell me whether to kill or not?"
Huo Die ignored them and poured himself a sip of tea: "Are you sure he knows everything?"
Shen Yao: "Pretty much."
Huo Die cleared his throat: "I have already defied the heavens by coming into this world. I cannot kill the cultivators of this world with my own hands. Besides, Jiang Ming is not an evil cultivator."
"Huh?" Shen Yao was very disappointed: "What would happen if I killed him?"
Huo Die: "Hehe, if you kill him, you won't have a father anymore. Your father's clone will be erased by the Heavenly Dao."
Upon hearing how serious it was, Shen Yao put Feng Yu's arm down and said, "Oh, it's that serious? Then let's not kill him. I'll do it myself later."
He then took out the Spirit Awakening Seal and gave it to Huo Die: "Father, keep the Spirit Awakening Seal with you for now. I always feel it's not safe for me to keep it here."
Huo Die took the Spirit Awakening Seal, and Feng Yu held Shen Yao's hand: "Don't worry, I'll go kill him. You don't need to pretend to accept him. I'll investigate."
Ever since that day in the carving studio when Jiang Ming's spiritual sense barged in without restraint, Shen Yao knew that her Yunhe was no match for Jiang Ming.
How could Shen Yao let him take such a risk? She gently shook Feng Yu's hand: "Don't be angry when I tell you, you can't beat him..."
If he can't beat someone, he'll find a way. But his Yanzhou said for the second time today that he's not as good as Jiang Ming, and Feng Yu's unhappiness was visibly obvious.
But he quickly calmed himself down. Yan Zhou was also worried about his safety. Feng Yu's expression softened, and he replied to Yan Zhou, "Don't worry, I won't act impulsively."
Huo Die looked at them with disdain: "I can't bear to look. You two go somewhere else and be all lovey-dovey."
The carving studio had been emptied out, without even a chair, so Shen Yao had no choice but to take Feng Yu back to her room.
Tables and chairs are nothing compared to the comfort of a bed, so Erxiu sat down on the bed again.
Shen Yao sat down casually, and Feng Yu sat down right next to her.
Shen Yao moved to the side.
Feng Yu pleaded helplessly, "Yan Zhou, please don't do this. I just want to hug you."
Ha, Shen Yao believed his lies.
Despite her belief in superstition, she still let him hold her in his arms.
Feng Yu: "Yan Zhou, why did you take a liking to that piece of jade that shines with the sun and moon?"
Shen Yao: "That communication code you made? It's very well made, why don't you like it?"
Feng Yu: "Cultivators in the world consider it an ominous sign that the sun and moon shine together."
Shen Yao: "And what about you? Do you also think it's unlucky?"
Feng Yu: "I once traveled to the border of the Immortal Clan and saw the two clans fighting. Everywhere there were severed limbs and heavy casualties."
"At that time, I thought, we are all cultivators in the world, why can't we coexist peacefully instead of fighting to the death?"
“I sat on the cliff of Gongshan Mountain in Longzhou for several days and nights, watching the sun and moon light up and dim in an instant, wondering why they did not meet, as if they were enemies.”
"When I saw the fifth day, a thought suddenly came to my mind: if the sun and moon do not meet, there will be no peace in the world. If the sun and moon shine together, does it mean that heaven and earth coexist, wars cease, and the world is at peace?"
Shen Yao looked into Feng Yu's eyes. There were no stars in the world of cultivation, but it seemed as if there were stars in Feng Yu's eyes.
Feng Yu and Shen Yao looked at each other, their eyes sparkling, and she said gently, "Yan Zhou, I don't think it's unlucky for the sun and moon to shine together. What about you?"
Shen Yao was captivated by the starry sky in his eyes, and through them, she seemed to see another world.
Shen Yao said, "Yunhe, there are no stars here, but in the Outer Heavens, you can see many stars."
Feng Yu: "What are stars?"
Shen Yao: "Stars are planets in another world, there are many, many planets."
Feng Yu: "What do planets look like?"
Shen Yao: "Planet... let's not talk about that for now. Yunhe, in our land, the sun and moon shining together is auspicious. It represents light and hope, symbolizes world prosperity, and also means world peace, which is what you wish for."
The stars in Feng Yu's eyes shone even brighter.
Shen Yao couldn't help but lean against him: "Moreover, couples who have witnessed the sun and moon shining together will never be separated."
"So when I saw this communication token, I liked it very much."
"At that time, I thought that this sculptor must be a unique sculptor in the world."
Shen Yao buried her head in Feng Yu's arms: "The day you moved to the East Courtyard, I realized that you were the sculptor."
Feeling the warmth in his arms, Feng Yu felt extremely happy. He had truly found a fairy who understood him and a partner whose soul resonated with his.
Feng Yu repeatedly kissed Shen Yao's forehead, wishing he could stay in this gentle embrace forever.
After a long while, Shen Yao suddenly asked curiously, "I haven't looked at your communication token carefully yet."
Feng Yu untied the knot with one hand, and with the other hand, he grasped Shen Yao's hand, placed it on his waist, and guided her hand to pull on the belt...
Wen Yu landed in Shen Yao's hands. She picked up the communication token and looked at it: "How come your landscape map is exactly the same as mine?"
Shen Yao took out the Sun and Moon Shining Together and laid them out side by side for comparison: "They really are exactly the same, but why are there so many seagulls on this one?"
"Seagull?" Feng Yu had never heard of this word before.
Shen Yao pointed to the birds on the communication token: "These are the birds, seagulls."
Feng Yu grasped her hand, which was holding the communication token: "That's a messenger bird."
Shen Yao looked up at him: "A messenger bird?"
Looking at her face, Feng Yu felt himself becoming aroused again.
I can't help but want to kiss him...
He bit his lower lip, suppressing his inner desires, and struggled to shift his gaze to the communication token, patiently explaining: "Legend has it that when the true god was still alive, the cultivators of the three races lived in peace. At that time, there were no communication magic treasures, and everyone relied on beast tamers to train carrier birds to communicate. Back then, carrier birds often flew together in the world."
"I also saw this kind of messenger bird in an ancient book during my travels."
