Chapter 921 [Fragrant Honey 6]
Time passed quietly, and after a long time, Runyu finally opened his eyes slowly, ending his long meditation practice. He glanced around casually, and suddenly found that Xufeng, who was not far away, was standing still in a very strange posture, motionless, as if he had turned into a sculpture. This scene was too weird, and Runyu couldn't help but feel puzzled, and asked: "Xufeng, what's going on with you?"
However, Xu Feng couldn't make any sound at this time. Only his two eyeballs could move freely. He blinked his eyes desperately, as if he wanted to convey some information to Runyu, but this method was too obscure and difficult to understand. Fortunately, Runyu was very smart and soon guessed the reason - Xu Feng was probably cast a spell of immobilization. Thinking of this, Runyu raised his hand without hesitation, and a flash of light flashed, instantly releasing the restraints on Xu Feng.
As the restraints disappeared, Xu Feng felt his whole body relax and regain his freedom. However, due to maintaining the same posture for a long time, his body had already become extremely stiff. At the moment when his limbs just regained consciousness, Xu Feng, who had lost his balance, fell straight to the ground like a kite with a broken string. With a dull "bang", Xu Feng fell hard to the ground, raising a cloud of dust. After a long while, Xu Feng gradually came back to his senses. While rubbing his sore butt, he complained to Runyu with a bitter face: "Oh my, brother! You are really going to suffocate me to death!"
Hearing Xufeng's complaint, Runyu couldn't help but frown slightly and asked, "Tell me, did you take advantage of my meditation to be naughty and make loud noises, disturbing the master's peace?" Faced with Runyu's questioning, Xufeng was stunned at first, and then showed a surprised expression and asked back, "Brother, how did you know?"
Runyu shook his head gently, sighed and explained: "The immobilization spell just now was cast by Master. If you hadn't made Master upset, how could she punish you like this? Don't act so recklessly in the future, understand?"
"Ah? The Emperor actually likes quietness! Brother, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xu Feng asked in surprise, his eyes wide open, a look of disbelief.
Runyu smiled slightly and replied softly: "You didn't ask about this before, and I haven't thought about it myself. Besides, I've been accustomed to such a quiet life over the years, so I don't feel any difference from other days." His tone was as calm as water, as if he was accustomed to such a life.
After hearing this, Xu Feng quickly grabbed Runyu's sleeve and excitedly suggested, "Well, brother, in that case, have you ever thought about going out to play? At your age, you must have never stepped out of the palace. How about we go to the outside world together? For example, the mysterious bird tribe territory, or the bustling human world?"
Runyu shook his head gently and declined, "No, I have to accompany my master." Although he refused, his eyes revealed a subtle desire and hesitation. After all, for a child, the outside world is full of endless novelties and temptations.
"Brother, although practice is important, you also need to know how to combine work and rest! It's not good to practice hard all the time." Xu Feng advised earnestly, his face full of concern.
Runyu couldn't help but feel moved. Just as he was about to agree, he seemed to have thought of something and said hesitantly, "But..." However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xufeng.
Xu Feng put his hands together in front of his chest and started to act coquettishly towards Runyu: "Brother, please, just come with me! I promise to take good care of you and never let you get hurt. Okay?" As he spoke, he shook Runyu's arm, just like a cute little kitten asking for food from its owner.
"Okay, I'll go report this to Master." Runyu nodded slightly in response, and then used the sound transmission technique to contact Youyou: "Master, I want to accompany Xufeng out for some fun, so I might be back a little later."
Soon, he received a reply from Youyou that he knew about this matter. After getting the promise, Xufeng was very excited and couldn't wait to pull Runyu up and leave.
Soon, the two arrived at the land of the bird tribe. Xu Feng led Runyu to meet his cousin Sui He with a smile on his face. After meeting Sui He, Xu Feng introduced her to Runyu enthusiastically: "Brother, this is my cousin Sui He! She is the most respected princess in our bird tribe! Sui He, come and meet my brother."
Hearing this, Suihe walked forward lightly, bowed gracefully, and said in a sweet voice, "Suihe greets eldest and second cousins."
Runyu smiled and nodded, took out an item from his bosom and handed it to Suihe, and said gently: "It's our first meeting, cousin Suihe, I hope you will accept this small gift." As he said that, he showed the object in his hand to everyone - it turned out to be an extremely exquisite whip! The whip was engraved with a lifelike phoenix pattern, and it was obviously not an ordinary item, but an extremely rare spiritual weapon.
Sui He was attracted by the whip at first sight, with a gleam of surprise in her eyes. She took the whip with great joy, and her gratitude was overflowing with words: "Thank you for the generous gift, cousin. Sui He really likes this gift!"
Seeing this, Runyu responded softly, "No need to be so polite, as long as my cousin likes it."
Xu Feng, who was standing by, saw Runyu giving Suihe such a precious spiritual weapon, and he couldn't help but feel jealous. He grumbled and complained, "Brother, you only prepared a gift for Suihe, but not for me. I am really sad that you treat me differently!"
Runyu looked at the innocent and mischievous Xufeng in front of him, and a deep feeling of helplessness surged in his heart. After a period of getting along, he had already found that Xufeng was not a malicious person, but just a naughty child who gave people a headache. So, Runyu shook his head slightly and chuckled, then turned around and took out a carefully selected sword from the treasure house. The sword body flashed with cold light, and the hilt was inlaid with gems. It was obviously a peerless sword.
Runyu handed the sword to Xufeng and said gently: "This sword suits you very well, take it."
Upon seeing this, Xu Feng's eyes lit up instantly. He took the sword with surprise, waved it excitedly a few times, then grinned and said, "Thank you, brother! I will take good care of it!" After that, he couldn't wait to begin studying the new sword.
Time flies, and the years pass by like a shuttle. In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years have passed. During this long period of time, the relationship between Xufeng, Runyu and Suihe has become deeper and closer. They practiced magic together, explored mysterious places together, and spent countless happy times together. The Queen Mother did not feel wrong about the three of them being so close at first, but as the days passed, she gradually realized that something was wrong.
After careful consideration, the Queen decided to separate the three children to prevent them from causing trouble in the future and affecting Xufeng's status. But just as she was about to implement her plan, she was surprised to find that Xufeng had stood on the same front with Runyu since some time ago, and the two worked together like brothers. Now, it became extremely difficult for the Queen to sow discord or create trouble, because no matter what means she used, it was difficult to shake the rock-solid friendship between Xufeng and Runyu.
At the same time, Runyu successfully ascended the throne of the Night God of Heaven with his outstanding talent and unremitting efforts; and Xufeng was also named the awe-inspiring God of Fire because of his superior strength. Although Runyu had no interest in the lofty position of the Emperor of Heaven, the Queen Mother always regarded him as a thorn in her side and believed that as long as Runyu was alive, Xufeng's position would never be secure. Therefore, the Queen Mother racked her brains and tried every possible way to harm Runyu.
Fortunately, there is always a way out, and Runyu has Youyou by his side. Youyou is extremely intelligent, witty and brave, and can always see through the traps secretly set by the Queen Mother in time and cleverly resolve the crisis. For those harmless tricks, Youyou usually chooses to turn a blind eye, just to provide Runyu with some opportunities to exercise and grow. In this way, with the help of Youyou, Runyu escaped danger again and again, and dealt with the open and secret attacks from the Queen Mother safely.
