Tuan Zis eyes widened.

So the ancestor is really that powerful? In that case, not only can AYue and I still be together in the future, but we also wont have to listen to the clan leader and the elders nag about it!? Moreover, even if AYue and I encounter any more danger, the two of us can still survive as long as one of us can escape! This couldnt be better!

Upon hearing this, Chu Liuyue felt emotional.

The entwined fate contract is indeed extraordinary.

Originally, she didnt know about this. But when the ancestors power fused into her body and transformed into feathers, covering her Yuan meridian with an extremely tough armor, she vaguely sensed something.

Unknowingly, there seemed to be chanting sounding from afar, driving the ball of light to split into two and fuse.

Although the process was quite difficult, it was finally worth it.

She stood up with Tuan Zi in her arms and bowed deeply to the red-gold heavenly phoenix on the mural. Senior, I will never forget your kindness.

Tuan Zis watery eyes darted around, and she hurriedly shouted, Thank you, Ancestor! I knew you treated me the best!

Although her voice was still a little hoa.r.s.e, it was soft, cute, and still very loveable.

The ancestor snorted. Youre quite sweet now. Not angry anymore? Not making a fuss?

Tuan Zi blushed and smiled widely. Ancestor is magnanimous and broad-minded. Why would he argue with a child like me? Besides, you dote on me the most, right?

Otherwise, I wouldnt have been able to summon the Ancestral Soul or become the young mistress and enter this place, right?

The ancestor couldnt help but laugh. You know how to talk. I wonder who you learned it from.

There was no anger in its voice, only affection.

Of course, it doted on Tuan Zi. Otherwise, it wouldnt be willing to spend so much effort to help her change the contract.

Shangguan Yue, I still have a few words to tell you.

Chu Liuyues expression froze. Senior, if you have any instructions, please tell me.

The hall fell silent.

After a while, the ancestor said, Tuan Zi is our clans young mistress and the future clan leader. Shes still young now, so Ill be troubling you to take care of her in many places.

Chu Liuyues lips curved up slightly. Senior, youre too polite.

Even if the other party didnt say this, she would definitely not let Tuan Zi suffer any grievances.

Seeing how you were willing to step into our territory for Tuan Zi, I naturally trust you.

The voice hesitated for a moment. If you go and find the remaining ones in the future, Im afraid itll be filled with danger. Today, Ive changed the contract between the two of you. Consider it the last thing I can help you with.

Chu Liuyues heart skipped a beat, and she nodded solemnly. I understand your intentions, Senior.

The voice laughed and sighed. That things willingness to acknowledge you as its master has actually proved too much. Go ahead; Im a little tired and want to rest.

At the end of the sentence, there was indeed a hint of fatigue in the ancestors voice, which gradually faded.

Chu Liuyue pursed her lips and put Tuan Zi down. She then bowed respectfully. Take care, Senior.

Tuan Zi also bent down and said crisply, Goodbye, Ancestor! Tuan Zi will miss you every day!

A low, distant laugh sounded, then gradually faded.

After a while, Chu Liuyue held Tuan Zis hand. Tuan Zi, lets go.

Creak

The doors of G.o.dly Phoenix Hall finally opened!

Everyone waiting outside the hall perked up and looked in the direction of the doors!

As the heavy and solemn doors slowly opened, two figuresone tall, one shortappeared in front of everyone. It was Shangguan Yue and Tuan Zi, who had been inside for a few days!

They are finally out!

Countless people had this thought.

Yi Zhao took the lead and walked forward.

His gaze first landed on Tuan Zi. When Yi Zhao saw that Tuan Zis eyes were red and there were still tears on her fair and round face, his heart tightened. Tuan Zi, whats wrong?

What happened to make her cry?

He almost immediately frowned and glanced at Chu Liuyue for an explanation.

Sensing his stern scrutiny, Chu Liuyue was caught between laughter and tears.

After we bade farewell to the ancestor, we directly came out. Tuan Zi has just finished crying and looks extremely pitiful, so its no wonder Yi Zhao suspects me when he sees this.

Clan Leader, Im fine Tuan Zi held Chu Liuyues hand tightly and hurriedly explained, knowing that the clan leader had misunderstood.

Yi Zhao was still skeptical. Tuan Zi, this is G.o.dly Phoenix Hall, and youre the red-gold heavenly phoenix clans young mistress. If youre really bullied, you must say it, understand?

Aiya! Im really fine! Tuan Zi muttered. Its Its not easy for me to talk to my ancestor. I was too happy, so I cried!

Before coming out, she had already discussed with AYue that she wouldnt tell anyone else about them changing the contract for the time being.

If Yi Zhao and the others knew this now, they would definitely not have any scruples about her anymore. They might even ask Tuan Zi to stay at G.o.dly Phoenix Mountain.

After signing the entwined fate contract, the human and fiend no longer had to stay together all the time. At the same time, the fiend no longer had to worry about dying because of the death of the human.

Yi Zhao and the others had always wanted Tuan Zi to stay. If they knew this, the reason would undoubtedly become more adequate.

Anyway, they had already agreed not to get involved until Tuan Zi was of age.

It might be more appropriate to say it later.

Yi Zhao sized up Tuan Zi again and was relieved to confirm that she was really not injured. Then, he said to Chu Liuyue, Miss Shangguan, please forgive us if we offended you just now. After all, Tuan Zi is our clans young mistress, so were naturally more concerned about her.

Chu Liuyue raised her eyebrows slightly.

What a rare sightClan Leader Yi Zhao is actually so polite to me. Could it be because I entered G.o.dly Phoenix Hall?

Clan Leader Yi Zhao, youre overthinking. I know youre all doing this for Tuan Zis sake. Chu Liuyues principle had always been: if someone respected her, she would return the favor.

No matter what, Yi Zhao was the incomparably n.o.ble clan leader of the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan. She was already very gratified to be able to hear him speak to her so calmly.

It was much better than at the beginning.

Seeing that she was smiling and that her eyes were curved as if she really didnt take these things to heart, Yi Zhaos impression of her improved.

Shangguan Yue looks young, but she knows her limits. She knows when to fight and when to give way. No wonder she is so famous among the humans

Yi Zhao paused for a moment before asking, Did everything go smoothly when you paid respect to the ancestor?

Everyone p.r.i.c.ked up their ears. This was actually what they wanted to know the most!

Its normal for Tuan Zi to wors.h.i.+p her ancestor. The key iswhy did Shangguan Yue go in?

What exactly happened inside!?

In the silence, Chu Liuyue smiled brightly. Of course. Senior is very kind, and I feel especially close to him.
