Chapter 917 [Fragrant Honey 2]
"Host, do you choose to go to the small world now, or leave later?" 103's voice sounded in Youyou's mind, and his tone seemed a little anxious.
After a little thought, Youyou replied: "Let's set off now! But I want to know first, what is my identity in this small world?" There was a gleam of curiosity and anticipation in her eyes.
103 quickly explained: "In order to facilitate your actions in the small world, we have specially set up a special identity for you. You will become a mysterious figure that has never appeared in that world, and your status is extremely respected, even comparable to that of the Emperor of Heaven. Even the Emperor of Heaven dare not offend you easily."
Hearing this, Youyou couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile, nodded and praised: "Well, this identity is not bad. Let's set off quickly!"
Following 103's order, Youyou felt a flash of light before her eyes, and was instantly transported to the small world. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself at the shore of the beautiful Taihu Lake.
"Is this Taihu Lake?" Youyou looked around and sighed in her heart. However, before she could finish appreciating the beautiful scenery around her, she suddenly realized that something was wrong. She turned her head to look at 103 beside her and asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Are you sure you are here? Are you in the wrong place?" Because according to the plan, she should not arrive here so early.
103 hurriedly explained: "That's right, host. This is the critical moment for Runyu to grow dragon horns and dragon scales, so we arranged for you to come here in advance. I just didn't expect the time to be a little off, but it's not a big problem."
Youyou shook her head helplessly, thinking that 103 was too unreliable. There was no other way, since she was already here, she had to find a place to practice in seclusion and wait for the opportunity to complete the task. Fortunately, 103 was there to remind her from time to time, otherwise she would have really thrown the task out of her mind.
Youyou slowly walked to the edge of the magnificent Taihu Lake, the breeze gently blowing her hair, the lake surface sparkling, beautiful. At this moment, a small and exquisite head suddenly emerged from the depths of the lake, blinking a pair of watery eyes and looking curiously at the shore.
Seeing this, 103, who had been accompanying Youyou the whole time, quickly said excitedly, "Host, look! That little guy is Runyu when he was a child. He is so cute!"
Youyou took a closer look and couldn't help but secretly admire in her heart: "It is indeed true. This child looks well-behaved and lovable."
At this time, Runyu in the water also noticed Youyou and the other person on the shore. He swam closer cautiously and shouted in a clear voice, "Who are you? How did you get here?"
Youyou smiled slightly and responded gently: "I am your future master."
"Master?" Runyu's face was full of confusion, and he was obviously very puzzled by this unfamiliar title.
Youyou nodded gently, then squatted down and asked kindly: "My dear disciple, please tell me your name quickly."
Runyu hesitated for a moment and replied in a low voice: "I... I don't have a name yet. Mother always calls me Li'er, and people around me follow suit and call me that."
After hearing this, Youyou nodded thoughtfully, then stretched out her hand to Runyu, and invited him with a smile: "Then are you willing to leave this place with me? I will teach you a powerful cultivation method."
Runyu looked up at Youyou, then turned back to look at the familiar scenery of Taihu Lake behind him, and said with difficulty: "But...but I really can't bear to leave here."
Seeing that the person in front of him was worried, Youyou hurried forward and whispered to comfort him: "Don't worry! If you miss this place in the future, you can come back to visit whenever you want."
Runyu nodded slightly to show his agreement, but still replied with difficulty: "Of course I am looking forward to it, but I still need to discuss this matter with my mother."
Youyou smiled and nodded, took out a small and exquisite conch from her bosom and handed it to Runyu, and said softly: "That's it, after you have discussed it with your mother, just tell me the message through this conch."
Runyu took the conch with great joy and thanked her sincerely, "Thank you for your kindness, young lady."
Then, Youyou turned around and left gracefully, her figure gradually moving farther and farther away until she disappeared. Runyu walked slowly towards the cave with the conch in his arms. When he entered the cave, he saw Sili sitting on a stone bench. Runyu walked quickly to Sili and said, "Mother, I just met someone outside. This person wants to take me as his disciple and take me away to practice elsewhere."
However, for some unknown reason, these words struck Si Li like a thunderbolt, causing her to go crazy from her calm state. She stared at the dragon horn that had just emerged from Run Yu's head, and suddenly stretched out her hands and fiercely pulled it off.
Instantly, a piercing pain swept over him, and Runyu rolled over on the ground in pain, screaming miserably. But at this time, Sili had completely lost her mind, and ignored Runyu's pain, just muttering: "Li'er, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you will feel better after a good sleep..."
Runyu felt a deep chill spreading from his body, as if it was going to swallow him up. He could clearly feel that the vitality that originally supported his life was slipping away bit by bit, disappearing as quickly as the sand in an hourglass.
At this moment, Runyu used up his last bit of strength to tightly grasp the conch in his hand, and his lips trembled as he uttered a weak and difficult voice: "Save... me..." These two words were like a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time.
On the other side, Youyou was sitting quietly in Zixiao Palace practicing. Suddenly, her heart tightened and an inexplicable uneasiness surged into her heart. With her keen perception, she immediately realized that something had happened to Runyu. Without the slightest hesitation, Youyou flashed and turned into a stream of light and rushed towards where Runyu was.
When Youyou arrived, she was shocked by the scene. Runyu was lying lifeless in a pool of blood, and the blood had dyed the surrounding ground red. What was even more heartbreaking was that Runyu's newly grown horns were dug out, and Sili stood by with his hands covered in blood.
Seeing all this, Youyou instantly understood the whole story. She suppressed her anger and grief, waved her sleeves lightly, and used magic to treat Runyu's wounds. With a soft light flashing, the bleeding wound on Runyu's body finally stopped bleeding.
Then, Youyou carefully and gently picked up Runyu and let him lean against her warm embrace. She turned to look at Sili, her eyes full of disappointment and reproach, and said coldly: "Princess Sili, I know you have resentment towards the Emperor of Heaven, but no matter what, Runyu is your own flesh and blood! How can you be so cruel to him? Since you are no longer willing to take care of Runyu, from today on, Runyu is my Zixiao Palace person, and I will take care of him and protect him!" After that, Youyou hugged Runyu and turned away, leaving Sili standing alone, with a face full of regret and self-blame.
