Chapter 1337: Chapter 999: Should We Detain Grandfather’s Soul_4

"You... you actually... planned all of this for me?"

Princess Ata looked at her in disbelief, is this really just a five or six-year-old child?

No wonder Xunyang was deceived by her today!

"I said I would give my sister time to consider."

That night, a fierce wind blew in the sky, with flashes of lightning and thunderous roars, yet not a drop of rain fell.

Ji Youyuan stood before the nine-story pagoda in Xiling, looking up at the sky with a troubled expression, wondering what Suisui had done that went against the Celestial Dao again.

Feng Wushang stood firmly in the courtyard of the National Master’s Mansion, gazing at the sky, unable to move his fingers.

"Master!"

Li Yanyan had already donned a Daoist robe, having severed ties with the mundane world to become a true disciple of the Daoist Sect.

"Master! Disciple always feels that the Celestial Phenomenon tonight is very abnormal, like the signs of Celestial Punishment that Master often mentions."

The National Master smiled approvingly at this statement from Li Yanyan and reached out to pat her little head, but seeing a bit of blood on his fingers, he quickly withdrew his hand.

Li Yanyan was shocked at the sight.

"Master, your hand..."

"It’s nothing! There might be great changes in the world soon, disciple, don’t run around, alright?"

"Ah... great changes in the world? Could it be that some villains are causing trouble?"

Li Yanyan hadn’t forgotten that when Li Xu’s case came to light, people from the National Master’s Mansion described it as a world in chaos.

"Not exactly that kind of chaos, disciple, remember, as cultivators, we take it upon ourselves to slay monsters and demons, protect the living beings of the world, and maintain peace in the world!"

Li Yanyan was puzzled, was Master telling her... that there were still demons in the world?

Xiaosuisui had slept soundly under the care of Ji Youran, Princess Lianchun, and others, and when she woke up, it was already daylight, and the maids of the Nanjiang royal court came with breakfast and helped her wash up.

"Princess Ata has made a decision, she will ascend to the throne in three days, with the King of Nanjiang abdicating," Princess Lianchun informed her.

Xiaosuisui nodded and directly took out a jade token to hand over to her, "Aunt, help me give this to Sister Princess Ata, as a gift from me, and make sure she always wears it!"

Princess Lianchun felt a bit envious holding the jade pendant.

"You even gave such an outsider something I, your aunt, don’t have."

Xiaosuisui: "..."

She silently took out another jade token, with a lotus flower on it, "Here, this one is for you, Aunt!"

Princess Lianchun joyfully received it, put it on immediately, and happily spun around in place, asking everyone if it looked good!

Xiaosuisui just thought that Aunt was quite childish.

Others were envious, and Ji Youzhi just stared at his precious niece, making Xiaosuisui’s scalp tingle.

"Seventh Uncle, do you want one too?"

Ji Youzhi didn’t say anything, but his gaze...

"Alright! Here you go!"

She took out another one to give Ji Youzhi, Ji Youran also looked over, including Yun Kuo, their little eyes all seemed to be saying "How dare you treat some differently?"

Xiaosuisui: "..."

She gave each person one, leaving none for herself in the end.

After breakfast, they set off for the Valley of No Man, but before they left, she also took the map hanging in the Conference Hall of the King of Nanjiang.

"Are we really going to leave Xiaoqing for Yun Kuo? Doesn’t he know that profound technique to open a door and walk a few miles? Why make him ride Xiaoqing? Are we walking to the Valley of No Man?"

Ji Youzhi was dissatisfied, unwilling to admit that he was envious of his cousin!

"Seventh Uncle, don’t envy Uncle Yunkuo, the Phoenix will arrive soon, we’ll wait thirty miles outside the city, and it will quickly fly over."

Ji Youzhi’s eyes lit up, asking eagerly: "Is that true?"

Xiaosuisui rolled her eyes: "When have I ever lied?"

Ji Youzhi: "..." If he hadn’t seen her deceive Xunyang before with his own eyes, he would have believed it.

"Isn’t the Phoenix always kept in Cining Palace? If it suddenly flies here, won’t the Imperial Palace be in chaos?"

Princess Lianchun was quite worried.

Xiaosuisui replied, "Don’t worry, it’s not the first time the Phoenix has flown away from the Imperial Palace, there won’t be much reaction."

She was right, there indeed wasn’t much reaction in the Imperial Palace, before the Phoenix flew away, it communicated with Xie Pan’Er, telling her: "My master needs my help, she’s summoning me."

Xie Pan’Er worriedly asked, "What’s wrong with Suisui? Is she in trouble? Is she in danger? Should I report to His Majesty and send someone to find her?"

"A mortal’s power can’t assist my master, rest assured, my master is extraordinary and will surely turn misfortune into fortune!"

With that, the Phoenix took flight and left.

Its departure stirred up the entire Imperial Palace, with everyone discussing why it suddenly flew away again.

Knowing it would arouse speculation, Xie Pan’Er mentioned it casually while accompanying the Empress Dowager in the Imperial Garden.

"When conversing with the Phoenix, it told me that the current weather is suitable for flying, it wants to soar around the world, whether or when it returns all depends on fate!"

The Empress Dowager, a wise elder, naturally understood the Empress’ words and said, "The Phoenix is a Divine Bird, and its brief stay in our Great Han’s Imperial Palace is already a great fortune and blessing; nothing should be forced."

The Empress Dowager’s and Xie Pan’Er’s words quickly spread outside the palace, with many people agreeing that the Empress Dowager was right, how could a Divine Bird be kept in captivity?

Flying away is normal, right!

On the Ji Family’s side

"The Phoenix flying out of the Imperial Palace indicates Suisui summoned it, Suisui probably didn’t go to Xiling!"

Ji Youze and Ji Youcheng were discussing in the study.

It was almost time for him and the sixth’s wedding, and he wondered if that little precious one at home could come back in time!

Could Xiaosuisui return?

If everything went smoothly, she could naturally return, but she wasn’t yet sure.

Even though Xunyang was deceived, things hadn’t settled, and even if it was resolved here, an Evil God remained in Xiling, the Array of Heaven had to be dismantled, these weren’t tasks that could be done overnight!

She had only the relics and true soul of the Vermilion Bird.

Where to find the Black Tortoise and White Tiger?

Without the Dream Realm space, she couldn’t contact her grandfather, Xiaosuisui sometimes thought, should she... take a trip to the Underworld?

Summon her grandfather’s soul directly to the Underworld?

"What are you thinking about so intently?"

Princess Lianchun’s curious questioning voice suddenly came to her ear.

Xiaosuisui instinctively replied, "I was thinking about summoning grandfather’s soul."

Everyone who heard this: "..."

This child was only injured in the hand last night, not in the head...
