Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 908 - 909: Xiao Tianyu Returns

At this moment, the Celestial Emperor's deep gaze showed no emotion, leaving one to guess his thoughts, but the cold aura from him was intense, causing the temperature in the grand hall to drop significantly.

Feeling the chill from the Celestial Emperor, the War Venerable shuddered slightly in his heart. However, being a seasoned warrior, he had seen all kinds of situations. This is precisely why he knew that his words had struck the Celestial Emperor's heart.

"Yes!" The War Venerable stood up as the Celestial Emperor said coldly, "Continue speaking!"

"Celestial Emperor!"

With respect, the War Venerable spoke to the Celestial Emperor: "Now, the Five Immortal Capitals are not at peace. It's very likely that the other four capitals will cause trouble for the Celestial Capital because of Ye Qingcheng at any time. I am clear about this, and even clearer that Xiao Tianyu is undoubtedly the biggest trump card for the Celestial Emperor in the Celestial Capital. However, speaking again, this undoubtedly means the Celestial Emperor is keeping a fierce tiger by his side, ready to bite at any time!"

Seeing the Celestial Emperor remain silent, the War Venerable continued: "Currently, the Celestial Capital has two Emperors, which may seem fortunate for the Celestial Emperor. But one day, if the Celestial Emperor unifies the Five Capitals, what about Xiao Tianyu? Would the Celestial Emperor share the world with him?"

At this statement, the Celestial Emperor's gaze finally flickered.

Then, the Celestial Emperor stood up and said to the War Venerable, "Elder Lu, you've said too much today!"

After speaking, the Celestial Emperor left the grand hall directly. Whether he was angry or pleased, no one knew. But as an old fox, the War Venerable was very clear in his heart that today's conversation likely had a very significant impact on the Celestial Emperor.

He said, "Respectfully seeing off the Celestial Emperor!"

As his voice fell, the Celestial Emperor's figure had already disappeared from the grand hall.

...

Outer Sect of Haotian Sect.

"Why isn't Lanshan back yet!"

Zhang Manyu and Zhong Chuhong were quite anxious. Xiao Tianyu had been captured, and several hours had passed. It was normal for him not to return, given that he had offended the Princess. But for Di Lanshan to go missing after leaving the Outer Sect, did it mean that the Prince wasn't willing to help at all?

"Lanshan is back!"

Just then, a young girl stepped through the gate with a lotus-like stride, but a hint of gloom was visible on her pure face.

This girl was none other than Di Lanshan.

Seeing this, Zhong Chuhong and Zhang Manyu hurried up to her and asked, "Lanshan, how did it go? Is the Prince willing to step in?"

"Forget it, my father is just a stubborn old man, unwilling to get involved no matter what!" Di Lanshan huffed coldly.

"Does that mean there's no saving that guy?" Hearing this, the two women felt dejected. Offending the Princess and War Venerable, even nine lives wouldn't be enough to save him.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jiu became anxious: "My boss has great fortune and will surely be fine!"

"We also hope he'll be fine, but..."

"Stop talking!" Di Lanshan snorted coldly. She had no idea what was happening to that guy, and wondered why her heart hurt. They'd only met once, right? Could it really be love?

As her beautiful eyes flickered, Di Lanshan said to Zhong Chuhong and Zhang Manyu, "Do you believe in love at first sight?"

"We believe!" the two women replied in unison.

"…" Hearing this, Di Xin chose to remain silent, realizing that she wasn't the only one who had fallen in love at first sight. Nevertheless, she hoped that guy would be safe and sound.

Just then, the Elder of Haotian Sect, who had left earlier, returned. Holding several tokens, he spoke to the people from mid-air: "Since you are abandoning your future to practice in the Outer Sect, I have nothing to say. Moreover, the Sect Leader has also agreed. These are your entry tokens; take them to the outer sect administrative office for registration!"

"If that guy's not here, do we still need to practice outside?" Zhang Manyu's beautiful eyes flickered, as if making a significant decision, while Di Lanshan calmly said, "I'm prepared to stay in the Outer Sect and go nowhere else!"

With that, Di Lanshan took the token.

"If that's the case, then I won't leave either!" Zhang Manyu also took a token, followed by Zhong Chuhong.

Such a scene made many people feel a mix of jealousy and envy. Why am I not Xiao Tianyu, for whom so many goddesses would give up their future? It might even be worth dying for him.

"Boss, why is your life so short!" At this moment, Xiao Jiu held the token and cried so sadly, as if he had lost his parents. He continued, "Boss, don't worry. As your brother, I'll take on the duty of looking after your girlfriends. After all, we're brothers!"

This scoundrel of a younger brother is indeed loyal, even offering to take care of his boss's girlfriend? If Xiao Tianyu knew, he might not even stay in his coffin!

Just then, the middle-aged man in the air said, "Where is Xiao Tianyu?"

"He's not here!" the women replied in unison.

The middle-aged man continued, "When he returns, pass this token to him!"

Transfer?

Hearing this, the women were stunned. Could that guy really come back after being taken by the Princess?

However, the middle-aged man ignored them. After dropping the token, he turned and left, stepping through the air. Di Lanshan picked up the token from the ground; even if that guy didn't return, at least it could serve as a memento.

With that thought, Di Lanshan tucked the token into her bosom.

"Look, that guy is coming back!" Just then, someone shouted, and in a flash, many people turned their heads to see a nonchalant young man swagger through the gate, stunning everyone to disbelief.

Whoa, it's really him.

To be taken by the Princess and the War Venerable, and still return unharmed—what kind of unimaginable situation is this?

Moreover, could that unruly princess really be so agreeable?

"Boss... Boss... you're okay!" Xiao Jiu rushed off excitedly; if his boss is fine, it means he doesn't need to take care of his girlfriends. Why then did he feel no joy at all?

Soon, Xiao Jiu arrived before Xiao Tianyu, inspecting him closely.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Tianyu glared at Xiao Jiu, who replied seriously, "I'm checking if you're missing any flesh!"

No way, after being caught by the Princess, shouldn't there be scars on him? Was the Princess really so easy-going as to let him return?

"Scram!" Xiao Tianyu snorted coldly.

"Boss, I was really worried about you!"

"You were worried I might return instead!"

Bang~

At this remark, Xiao Jiu's vision darkened, nearly fainting. Was his boss a worm in his belly? How did he know what he was thinking? It seemed he could no longer harbor secrets in his heart anymore.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jiu earnestly replied, "There's absolutely no such thing. How could I hope for my boss not to return? I am the most loyal of little brothers!"

"Some people were just saying they'd take care of Xiao Tianyu's girlfriends!" At this moment, Di Lanshan smiled faintly.
