Cheng Xiao Xiao, stop looking for excuses. Cant you tell me the truth? Gong Zixuan gave her an angry stare. She couldnt believe that Cheng Xiao Xiao wouldnt even tell her the truth.

I am telling the truth! Not wanting to continue with the subject, Cheng Xiao Xiao pointed at the most beautiful flower in front of them and said, Big sister Zixuan, look at that flower. Isnt that beautiful?

Yes, very beautiful! Gong Zixuan looked over at where Cheng Xiao Xiao pointed and nodded. Yet there were no signs of happiness on her face.

She knew very well that Cheng Xiao Xiao didnt want to tell her the truth and there were worries in her eyes.

The name of this flower is cuiluolan. Their flowers have vibrant colors. You say that looking at these flowers is enough to make one feel joyful. Seeing how pretty they are today, I am glad I planted them. They are quite good and I quite like them. I wonder

When Gong Zixuan walked out of Yuteng Pavilion, there was no smile on her for quite a while. In fact, she had a very solemn look as though there was something on her mind.

Her mother had gone back to Palace of Immortal Beasts and she didnt she could broach Luo JunHao with this subject. So her only option left was Mo Xuanzun.

Miss, someone asked to meet with you. Yezu, the maid, related the message.

Cheng Xiao Xiao was a bit surprised. Oh? Who is it?

Looks like an abbess from Sect Yuni.

Abbess

When she saw the abbess, Cheng Xiao Xiao had a pretty good idea why she was there.

Meeting the abbess who had been gone for over half a month in the living room, Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled at the seated person. Greetings, Old Abbess and Abbess Saochen.

Greetings, Madam Cheng. The old abbess dared not appear rude. She stood up and greeted Cheng Xiao Xiao.

Saochen curtsied Cheng Xiao Xiao as well and said politely, Grettings, Madam Cheng.

Dont be such strangers, abbesses. Please, have a seat.

You too, Madam Cheng.

The three of them had taken their seats and Cheng Xiao Xiao had a pretty good idea of the reason behind their return. Without beating around the bush, she asked directly, Abbess is ready?

Madam Cheng, do I have a choice? The old abbess smiled bitterly and gave Cheng Xiao Xiao a profound look.

If she accepted this today, she would be bowing down to Cheng Xiao Xiao going forward. As the forefather of a sect, she was not happy with that term.

And if she didnt accept, she could tell that her life had been draining from her faster and faster. She gathered she only had a few days remaining if she didnt breakthrough soon.

Under such fear, she didnt want to die if she could help it. And her only choice was to ask for Cheng Xiao Xiaos help. One way or another, as least shed be able to extend her life.

Naturally, Cheng Xiao Xiao knew what she meant. She smiled without a car and said, Of course you do, Abbess. Everybody has a choice.

The old abbess went silent.

Saochen looked at the both of them and sighed to herself. She knew that if Abbess consented to this right now, then she was afraid that she, too, would make the same decision when her time had come.

Thinking that anyone who wanted to go from martial emperor to martial monarch would have to contract with Cheng Xiao Xiao. That would, doubtless, make Cheng Xiao Xiao the most powerful person in the world.

Who would be able to rival her in the future?

Madam Cheng, can you give this abbess an idea what her future will hold? The old abbess looked up suddenly and looked straight at Cheng Xiao Xiao.

Cheng Xiao Xiao raised her brows and understood what she meant by that. Moving her eyes, she smiled and said to her, Dont worry, Old Abbess. You will become a guest elder of Sacred Land Zhongyuan. You wont need to stay at Sacred Land Zhongyuan, but should we need your help in the future, you must offer us your service.
